The election OF Charles D.
Storey as speaker Of the house is
threatening trouble in the legisla-
ture at Boise. 1t is pointed ou,
that among the large contractors
engaged in the erection of the
state capitol building is the firm oi
Storey & Murphy, and that Charles
D. Storey is member Of this firm.
In this connection it is pointed
out that section 365 of the revised
statutes Of Idaho says: "Members
OF the legislature, territorial, coun-
ty, city, district and precinct Off
GERS must not be interested in any
contract made by them in their
official capacity, or by any body or
board of which they are members. +"
1t is expected that the legisla-
ture will make liberal approprie-
tion for the continuation of work
of the capitol building. AS speak
er of the house of representatives
Mr.. Storey will of necessity ap-
point this committee, and the
position the Democrats will take
is that it would be wrong for the
speaker to profit, through his firm,
from appropriations largely die
tated by legislative committee OF
his own creation.
On the other hand it is pointed
out that Mr.. Storey was member
of the last legislature which made
the appropriation under which the
work on the capitol building has
been prosecuted in the past two
years. 1t is urged that if Mr..
Storey's connection with the erec.
ton of the capitol was proper two
years ago it cannot be wrong now

Notes From Washington.

Washington, D c., January r.
With the exception OF the death of
Senator Elkins OF West Virginia no
event OF very great importance has
occurred 10 Washington since the ad.
journment of Congress for the holi-
days.
The President has announced that
he will not take the initiative In
bringing together 10 holy accord the
belllgerent wings Of the Republican
party known as the tand-patters and
the insurgents. He says that he will
address himself to the business OF the
country and leave any peace making
program to the contending parties.
II appearances are to be trusted,
something will be done at this session
of Congress to prevent the influx OF
undesirable people from Europe.
Apropos of the immigrant question,
the fact that the attorney general Is
proceeding against the International
steam ship lines under the Sherman
law is very significant aud far-reach-
ing. The reason Europe is scraped
as 1t were, with fine tooth comb fol
the million or more Of immigrants
annually landing In this country IL
found to u great extent in the fact
that steerage traffic is immensely
profitable to the great steamship
lines.

The law makes It the duty OF the
state auditor to suggest plans for the
management and improvement of the
public revenues, and In compliance
with that requirement, special atten.
tion is given this subject.,
A number OF suggestions are made
which, il put into operation by legis.
lative action, will enrich the state by
from $l0O, 900 to $2O0,O 900 through
the medium Of fees and licenses. and
thus relieve property of that much
direct taxation. .54.9.:.
This report shows that in addition
to meeting the expenses OF the main
tenance of the state during this period
which has been $1,8l4,506 81. the
state Indebtedness has been reduced
$206, 960.5O, and that there now is a
cash balance Of 1916, l0S.75. of which
$77O,039,74 is available to apply upon
the expenses Of the state.
Pertaining to tax legislation, Mr..
Taylor makes the following recom-
mendations:
IAN appropriation sufficient for the
state board of equalization to main
tain tax bureau is recommended.
A law should be passed creating the
office OF tax commissioner, which
officer shall be in charge of this
bureau.
1.-THE tax on insurance companies
10 this state is two per cent on net
premiums. The average rate prevail
ing In the various states is two pei
cent on gross premiums. Idaho Is
entitled to two per cent on gross
premiums or better. The present fee
for filing annual statements Is $40.
It should be $50, as charged IN several
states. These two changes would
add $40. 200 to our revenues In the
next two years.

Hillsboro Banner: The North Da-

of the most successful exhibitions
that has ever been held In the state.
The agricultural products, machin-
cry, cattle and horse exhibits were
the largest and finest yet gotten to-

provided were Of the highest class.
Binford Times: Albert Alison and
the Times scribe accompanied by
their wives, autoed to Grand Forks
last FRIDAY morning to take in the
sights at the fair. The party return

q humdinger In every respect. The
exhibits were exceptionally fine; that
Of the live stock being about the
largest and best ever entered at o
fair in the state. The agricultural
exhibits. while good. there showed q
lack Of interest, insofar as only few
entries were made in this department,
Gnggs county being the only county
having complete display. The
horse races were fast. The principal
features were the aeroplane flights.
One noticeable part Of the fair was
the absence Of q lot Of those skin
games that are usually found In
abundance.
