1910. This means an increase of
II mills on the tax rate of 1910 un-
der the assessment roll Of that year.
or, in other words, upon each dollar
of taxable property assessed against
the taxpayer in 1910, he will be re-
quired to pay SIS additional for
state purposes on each thousand val
uation.
AS the population and resources Of
the state increase, the expenses of
the state increase also, but the real
cash value of the taxable property in
the state of Idaho is, in my judg-
ment, no greater this year than it
was last year, because there has been
a shrinkage in values in a number OF
the counties of the state which, at
least balances the increase of value
in other counties.

At the close of his talk, the Cover

in the audience who desired to ask

CLAIMS HE WAS DROPPED
LIKE AN UNDESIRED CAT
Providence Man Was Running About
Vars Place, Naked, Early Sunday
Morning.

About three o'clock Sunday morning
Acting Captain Toomey at police sta
ton was notified by H. B. Vars of
North street that there was a man
running about his yard naked, and
acting in queer manner. Two po-
licemen were sent there by Sergeant
Toomey, and the man was found as
described and brought to police station
in a hard rain, under cover of darkness
only. Later his clothes were found
about 100 yards from the Vars house
behind large stone.
He gave his name as William Cruth-
ers of Providence. He said he had
worked there for man named Glea-
son. From his talk it was evident that
he is not in his right mind but each
time he is asked he gives the same
name. He is about 80 years of age. He
was hard at work at the Vars place
taking stones from the wall and put
ting them pack again and when spoken
to, said "Oh. I'm all right, I'll get out
He said he was brought here and drop
ped and was told to come here by a
Hartford policeman just as soon as
he told him about the case. An effort
will be made today to find out who he
is and where he belongs.
He was given some blankets and hot
coffee after being brought in from his
early morning shower bath and slept
until late Sunday afternoon, when he
was apparently none the worse for his
experience.

Started Today-Wil Open Channel to Municipal Wharf.

rocks with reference to each other. 1t
was considered wise by the govern
ment officials that the rocks should be
removed.
1t is proposed to remove the smaller
rock to the depth of nine feet at low
tide and the larger one to the depth
of II feet, which will permit navigation
to the municipal wharf by steamers
which could otherwise use the river,
the Laurel Hill bridge being high
enough to permit them to pass. The
larger of the rocks is located near
the Laurel Hill bank just after passing
under the bridge, while the smaller
one is just trifie to the north. The
services of diver will be required 70
locate the position of the drill holes
and to set the charges of explosives.
1t is probable that the work can be
completed in a week or ten days.
It is largely through the efforts OF
Congressman Higgins that the govern
ment was presented the facts in the
case and steps taken for the survey
and the removal of the rocks. When
completed. the channel from the
Thames to the municipal dock will
range from Il to II feet in depth
The examination and survey of the
river was made by Lieut.. Col. Harry
Taylor of New London, of the United
States engineer corps.

Two weeks ago the contract was
awarded for the removal of the rocks
Which form an obstruction to navi-
cation in the Shetucket river from the
junction with the Thames river to the
municipal wharf, and on Saturday the
apparatus was towed up the river and
anchored in the river over the spot
where the rock is to be taken out.
The Thames Towboat company has the
contract for the removal of about 100
cubic feet of rock
There are two long floats, one of
which is equipped with an engine house
and a rigging similar to a spite driver.
On the front of the spite driver is at
tached a long steam drill for boring
into the rock on the river bottom,
which work it is expected VIII be
started this morning. The second float
bears a small house labeled ''Dyna-
mitei'' while on the remainder of it is
a blacksmith's forge for sharpening the
drills.
The above map shows by the two
black spots the rocks in the riverbed
which make navigation dangerous
There is a depth of water over these
rocks at low tide of about six feet
and the channel between the rocks has
approximately II foot depth at 1ow
water and width of so feet. Because

Unless manufacturers are able to con
tinue their business and buy wool from
domestic wool growers the latter will
have no benefit from the tariff that is
supposed to protect them, because they
will have to sell In competition with
foreign woods or send their sheep to
the shambles; hence the wool grower
is as much interested in the protection
of the manufacturer as he is In his
own.
1t may well be that conditions of
manufacture in this country have

CIVIC RIGHTEOUSNESS FIRST STEP
NECESSARY To BUILD UP COMMUNITY

vicinity, there is an unusually good
opportunity for the development Of the
town and the individual; for the rea-
son, that when an individual comes
here from the crowded confines Of a
city, he has literally the opportunity
TO spread This is not only true of
this particular place, but Of all the
west that is still in its embryonic
growth
Under the modern democratic spirit,
and here the word has no partisan
value, the individual citizen is the
foundation of all And if the citizen
does not perform his Individual duties
as a citizen, he cannot expect much
advancement in town growth
Importance Of Individual.
What is done by the private citizen
often is OF more value than the acts
placed upon the statutes. The latter
affects the general public, the former,
those close to home, and necessarily
those making up the municipality"
Mr. Adams discussed the conditions
both of labor and politics that affect
town life. The gist and substance OF
the whole address took form in the
oneness of the individual citizen, and
the old question of hat am 1 com
pared with the mass, was swept away,
leaving bare the fact that the actions
of one man may turn the thought Of
a single commonwealth into an en-
tfrely different channel to that in
which it formerly ran
Advocates Town Meetings.
In conclusion, Mr.. Adams asked for
the recall of the old New England town
meeting, that traces its origin 70 the
forests of Germany in the middle ages
where tribal discussion Of affairs was
the organ Of government. we should
have a sort Of neighbOrhood forum,
said Mr. Adams, where we may gather
ia discuss the issues of the times, and
to mutually educate ourselves in an
informal way. This plea was made,
not only in behalf of the grown up,
but i'm connection with the young boys
and girls open the ballot box and
get out were the closing words OF the
plea
