SHOULD

STATE DEPARTMENT ANNOUNCES
DISTRIBUTION OF 100000
SMALL TROUT IN MAY.
Blank Applications To BE Furnished
Governor Brady Taking An
Interest in This Distribution-All
Counties May Get Share.

The state fish and game depart
ment will have 100000 small trout
for distribution from the various
hatcheries about May /, and will
strive to make the first planting for
the year equitable as possible, says
the Statesman.
Governor Brady is manifesting
much interest in the work of the de-
partment," Chief Deputy Warden B.
T. Livingston states. "He is espec-
tally DESTROYS that the people of the
state shall profit so far as possible by
the expense to which the state has
gone in establishing fish hatcheries
and providing fry for restocking the
streams. The fish and game depart
ment is now outlining plan for the
spring delivery of eastern trout. This
delivery will commence not later than
May l. We are DESTROYS of making
this distribution to all counties that
will make proper application. For
the convenience of parties wishing
fish we have printed forms, and will
furnish them to all who take an in
terest in this work.
Fish from the state fish hatcher
les cannot be planted in waters which
are not available for the use of the
general public. In my judgment,
great care must be taken in selecting
suitable streams in each county. as
this means much to the future fish
ing in the state of Idaho. Fish
planted in small or muddy streams
that will not afford ample protection
in low water is simply a waste of
time. When the fry is planted it
should be in very shallow water
refer to the little rivulets that run
into the main streams.
THE department has carefully in
yestigated the methods adopted by
similar departments in other states,
and it has been found by those states.
after years of experience, that unless
the fish are planted in the shallow
water where the large fish cannot
pursue them. they win be destroyed
Full information and instructions
with reference to the planting Of the
fish Will be furnished by the depart
ment at all times. We stand ready
to help those who are interested in
the propagation and protection Of
fish and game, and will gladly answer
all correspondence of this nature
promptly"

A FEW REASONS.

business organization have added

half a dozen new ones The standard
Of living is perpetually rising. The
Injuries of yesterday become the nee

The cost Of living is not the result
of high prices alone, but is also be-
cause we want more things to enjoy
and must pay for them. We are
going faster and must pay the cost

The tax reform in Idaho is meeting
with encouraging results. The peo-
pie have long suffered from unjust,
inequitable tax laws The prospect
of relief is welcomed by all. Gov.
Brady again displayed his interest in
the welfare of the people of Idaho
when he took the first step in this
direction by calling together the
county commissioners. The work has
gone on from the start until it is
promised, as a result of the disclos-
ures and of the earnest efforts put
forth. supplemented by the agitation
on the part of the people because the
conditions were shown to be much
more distressful than had been
thought, that the next legislature
will enact remedial legislation and
place Idahos tax and revenue laws
on a practical basis Inequalities in
taxation are ever a source not only
for individual discount, but for COM
manal strife and state demoraliza-
ton. if not decadence. 1t is crafty
ing that start has been made in the
direction of bringing about changes
under which these inequalities would
be dissipated The people should
look well to the fact that
the representatives they elect to
the next legislature are in accord
with the governors views in this
matter as eluciadated at the conven-
ton of county commissioners.

The supreme court of Idaho has
handed down a decision in the appeal
of the idaho Fruit Land company vs..

Walters II was sought through this
action To have the irrigation system
turned over to the water right own
ers on the ground that promises had
been made that when all the water
which the system was capable of sup
plying had been sold, the system
would become the property of the
water right owners. This conten-
teDtion was combatted by the com
pany on grounds that any promises
which might have been made by its
agents were Initiated when the final
contract or deed was issued, and that
nothing not embodied in such con-
tract OF deed could be held to be Of
amy force OF effect. Judge Walters
ruled according to this view, and now
has been sustained by the supreme
coDrt- Therefore, the system will not
become the property Of the water
owners and it appears to us that they
are "a b. congratulated upon the out

of the fact that Judge Walters de-
cided an another action, that the
Hewitt and other mortgages. together

system Had the system been turned

about the same as making man

paid 81 $500 bill against its owner

Soule capital is being made out of
the TACT that the court has held in
this action that if the owners Of the
property fail to keep it in repair. the
users Of water under the system have
the right TO enter upon the property
and put it in shape to carry water.

The FOunda ton of Self Gov
ernment

The Hudson True Republican: Many
cities are turning down the commission
system of city government, vastly more
than are adopting it. If the people are
capable of governing themselves at all
it is in choosing those officers nearest
at hand. The smallest voting precinct
is the ward. The first step in exercising
the franchise is in casting ones ballot
for neighbor at a ward caucus or
primary. The interest here is more
than it is in any other election, because
if the vote is for an alderman or
school commissioner it reaches the
home and the family.
The move is one of agitatOrs who are
restless and want to do something for
change. They have some power to tear
down but none to reconstruct. The
people should be very slow to adopt
any change that puts the first step of
the governmental system out of their
reach. A few years ago the tower
from which the great bell had pro-
claimed the glory of Venice for nearly
a thousand years fell to the ground. 1t
was a very small insect that wrought
the destruction but it worked in the
foundation.

praised as of great good the country.
This letter has been freely circulated
in Indianapolis for the apparent pur-
pose of creating sentiment against the
progressive wing of the party and i'm
pressing upon the doubtful the neces-
sity of returning to the fold and obey

significant.

make report that the Aldrich Taft
law is national blessing would be
impossible elsewhere than in the United
States senate.

Forty Hour Devotion at St. Mary. Church

The annual forty-hour prayer took
place on the LIST, End and 3rd insts. at

The services lasted for three days
and opened each day with mass at $50
a. m. and closed in the evening
with devotion and sermon and bendic-
ton with the Blessed Sacrament at 1880.
