A number of the county asses
sors who met in convention at
Boise along the early part of the
year 1911 assert that when the
question of what the governor
thought would be the best plan
for them to pursue in their as
sessment work was put up to him,
he was silent on his present para
mount acknowledgements" pro
position as a dried mummy from
the land of the Pharaohs. Now
the governor has become loquac-
ious, verbose and even oratorical
along the lines of law enforcement
ON this particular subject; and
though the heavens fall, the
state constitution be wrecked and
the people bankrupted, the hob
by which his excellency has
mounted for the race, though jad
ed and winded, must run the
course which the honorable rider
has paced off, even though the
free use of the executive whip
and spur must be applied. Isn't
it amazing how a man can be-
come so welded to an idol OF
his own creating that he will ac-
knowledge no defects in it; and
though they be pointed out un.
til they stand forth as in raised
letters, they are ignored and the
deluded worshipper continues to
bow down and offer vain obla-
tions at the shrine of his
self-created Divinity A histor-
zeal case which almost parallels
this is to be found in the ancient
work of Moses, known as Exod-
us, in which is set forth the way
wardness of the children of Is
rael, who took the irrational idea
in their heads of creating some
thing to worship, and got into q
peck of trouble over the venture
but that was a golden calf in
stead of cash valuation PROPOSE

LONG. HARD TRIP.

Deputy Sheriff Charlie Thomp-
son returned last Saturday from
a three weeks trip into Thunder
Mountain where he went to levy
on and sell some personal proper
ty of the Sunnyside Mining com
pany and also attach other hold
ings to be sold later. He travel
ed almost 500 miles, 100 miles Of
which he walked, the distance be-
ing 80 miles from Thunder City,
in Longs Valley, where he left
his horse, to his final destination.
He says there are lots of peo-
pie working in the Edwardsburg-
Warrens country, and they are
anxious to have the Idaho coun-
ty board of commissioners accept
the wagon road built by the state
between those two important
points, and to give them road
overseer, as they have done in
the case of the road over the di-
vide further south, which leads
down to Boise. The Edwards
burg country is tributary to
Grangeville and points this way,
but the road over which they
must travel to get out here has
not been accepted by Idaho coun-
ty, while the road which leads to
Boise has been accepted and over
seers appointed and last year
5000 was appropriated to repair
the same. None of the trade owe

ny, and yet this county is

A PERTINENT QUESTION.

dONcInOl ALdWACy PoASAoeOAe
reiteration of the claim that he
insists upon the enforcement of
the cash value system of taxa
ton because he is irrevocably
committed to law enforcement
at any cost, it might be added,
lis calling forth many questions
from the editors of the state di-
rected to his majesty, the govern
or, a compilation of the answers
to which would make most in
teresting reading matter. Among
others, the Richfield Recorder
presents the following pertinent
questions, which are not only
timely but most respectfully pre-
scented for consideration and fin
al disposal by Idaho's executive.
1t says:
Yielding to no one in its per-
sonal esteem for the governor of
Idaho, or In respect to the office
of governor as an institution, the
Recorder would respectfully ask
the governor or any one else who
can authoritatively do so, to an
swer the following questions:
Is there a law on the statute
books, or a provision of the con-
stitution, making it an offense
for any one to lobby or to inter
fere with or coerce or intimidate
any legislator in the discharge
of his duty? If so, isn't it a good
law, and should it not be enfore-
ed?
1t was persistent rumor in
Boise last winter, that one SEN
ator, who favored railroad COM
mission, was told that if he voted
for it his pet county division bill
would be vetoed. He was releas-
ed from his voting agreement,
voted against a commission, and
his bill was signed. Did the gov
ernor of Idaho ever have any
knowledge or suspicion of this
coercion, and who did it, if he
did not. The senator was not
man to be afraid of shadows; if
this threat were to have any
weight, it would have to come
straight from the executive Of
flee. Did iti
Almost the same story is al
legged concerning another senator
who on the floor of the senate
said he had early in the session
dealt with the friends of the
measure; he too, wanted county
division, and it is alleged that
the veto suggestion came to him
from the power that controls the
veto. 1t in no wise changes the
conditions, that he charged CO.
ercion against the friends of the
measure-who were not the gov
ernor and his advisors. The rail
road commission bill is not on
trial, or here debatable on its
merits; it does not matter if il
was good, or bad, or who voted
for or against it, or why-save
in this much: Did the governor
of Idaho know that any coercion
or lobbying against it was being
done in his name, or did he have
any part in the same as wa'
credited to him by persistent ru
mort
eff all or any part of thes'
rumors be true-and there ar,
men besides the governor wh'
know absolutely-the Records
would like to know if the anti
lobbying, anti-coercion laws ar
not as important as the full cash
value assessment law.

Constantinople, December 16.-In the chamber today the grand vizier ex- plained the proposed modification of article 95 of the constitution. He point ed out the necessity of establishing equilibrium between the executive pow CTS with a view to strengthening the governments international and eXter- ioral policy particularly with regard to the conclusion of peace with Italy and the introduction of reforms in Anatola.
 It is believed the parliament short ly will be either adjourned for two months or be dissolved. -

MEN AND RELIGION
 MEETING TODAY
Special Secretary Barton Will Be Rendered a For
 nal Greeting

The chairmen of tho many committees of the departments of the Birmingham division of the Men and Religion Forward Movement and the church committees have been called into an assembly for this afternoon at o'clock, to formally greet R. c. Barton of Minneapolis, Minn., who has recently arrived in this city to act as secretary of the campaign for the next ten weeks. Chairman W. M. Cosby of the general committee issued the call yesterday through post cards, but all who have not received theirs and are in any way connected with this movement, gathering.
 The auditorium of the First Methodist church has been selected as the place of meeting, and all members of the com mittees are urged to bring as many of their fellow church members as they can, as many useful and beneficial instruc- tions will be explained by MT. Barton for the promotion of the local movement.
 The coming of MT. Barton is recog- nized as a decided impetus to the Bir- mingham Men and Religion Forward Movement and he is reputed to be speaker of ability as well as re- ligious worker introducing the identical executive force into this cause that he has employed in building up his suc- cessful business career.
 The following is the official call sent out by Chairman Cosby
 Dear Sir and Brother-A meeting will be held in the First M. E. church, Sunday afternoon at o'clock for the purpose of giving all our committee men an opportunity to meet and hear Mir. R. G. Barton, who has come to us from Minneapolis to conduct the Men and Religion Forward Movement cam paign. We are exceedingly anxious to make this meeting one full of interest and power, and we especially urge you as committee men to be present and also extend the invitation to any other Christian man in your church who may be interested. Sincerely yours,
 "W. M. COSBY, General Chairman"

MADERO LAUGHSAT
 TERR|F| FED PEOPLE
Passes Through Period of Earthquake Without Be-
 traying Uneasiness

Mexico City, Mex, December 16.- President Madero who recently proved his coolness by making flight in an aeroplane, today demonstrated his abil- ity to pass through the period of an earthquake without betraying signs or uneasiness. He was conferring Wlth two of his cabinet ministers in the na- tional palace when the seismic dls- turbance, which rocked a third or the republic, began. Scores of the palace occupants ran into the street, but the President walked to a window over looking the Zocalo and there remained laughing at the terrified hundreds who ran aimlessly about the big square, or sank to their knees in prayer
 The first shock here was felt at 1Z:4o and lasted for a few seconds more than two minutes The instruments regis tered an oscilliatory movement from southwest to northeast.
 Reports received tonight indicate that the movement was felt as far north as Guanajuato, and as far south as the Isthmus of Tehunatepec, and from ocean to ocean. In no place was loss of life reported, though in the state of Guerrero especially in Chilpancingo, the movement was much greater than here, being of a trepidatory character. A few flimsy buildings were thrown down.
 In the capital, telegraph and tele- phone wires were snapped, and for a time the city was without light and electric power on account. of the break ling of cables, but aside from the throwing down of few adobe walls, no serious damage was done.

 The order of the standing of the first six teams thus is: Foger and Clark, Kra- mer and Moran, Demara and Lawrence. Haistead and Drobach, Cameron and Ma gin. Pye and Collins.
 More interest was shown by the gem eral public in this years races than any previous year, the attendance breaking all records.

New York, December 16.--Joe Fogler of Brooklyn and Jacques Clark of Mel bourne, Australia. won the six day bicycle race. which ended at 10 o'clock tonight in Madison Square garden. The Fogler- Clark team finished one lap ahead of six other teams, punched in a tie for second place.
 The finish lacked excitement of the wind up or six day races in recent years. Fog Ter and Clark practically won the race at an early hour this morning, when a series of sensational sprints resulted in the,r gaining a lap on the entire field
 Fogler and Clark won by pedalling 27ls p,i1es and 9 laps in 142 hours of the con test To the six teams immediately fol- lowing 271S miles and laps were credited The winners were IS miles and laps be- hind the record of 2f37 miles and 1 lap, made by Mcfarland and Moran in l90S The final score was as follows:

Lawrence and Pye were nominated to represent their teams. all tied lap hehind the winners, to decide the six places after the first.
 The final one mile sprint was from a standing start. Kramer took the lead in the third lap, cutting out fast pace uoti, the sixth lap when Magin punctured n tire and the race was stopped.
 Kramer for a time refused to go on, claiming that the bell was rung for the final lap and he in the lead. Kramer finally put in written protest to the referee and agreed to start.
 After delay of an hour they were. sent away Lorenz did not start. claiming that he rode 10 laps to Kramer's nine and declared that he won second money. He
