Dakota is the only other western
state that seemed to have fully
|safeguarded its school land hold
ings and now has an endowment
fund in the treasury about as
large as that of this state.
BY terms of the constitution
only 16,5OO acres of the school
land can be sold in a single year
and the minimum price cannot
be less than $40 an acre. In sal
es just made in Lewis county
prices have run up to $38 an
acre and the land could not be
classed as first grade by any
means. Nez Perez county land
brought as high as 500 an acre.
Mr.. Day states that the applica-
tions for the purchase of state
lands far exceed the amount that
can be sold in a single year. For
instance, at this time there are
applications on file in the land
department aggregating 10000
acres. 1t is the policy of the
state to distribute the sales as
much as possible over the state,
so that each year some land will
be sold in each of the counties.
Sales have just been conducted
in Latah, Clearwater, Lewis, Ida
no and Nez Perce counties, and
Mr.. Day and associates of the
land department have gone to the
tier of counties to the north to
handle sales there.
In addition to the revenues de-
rived by the common schools
from the sale of lands and inter
est on the irreducible fund,
last year over 100000 were real
ized from rentals on leases. When
Mr.. Day assumed the work of the
land department under Governor
Gooding the lease returns
amounted to only $4,000 or ST.
600. Mr.. Day gave energetic at
tention to the matter of see
ing that these lands brought rev.
enues from those using them for
pasturage and grazing, with the
result that the handsome receipts
stated above are now being real
ized..

yeyors Of some kind have been
seen IN this section by parties
living at Denver. just what
they were engaged in was not
learned, but it forcibly reminds
the people that there is liable to
be something doing within the
next year towards carrying out
some of the many threats of rail
road invasion of this section of
the country. That matters will
not long stand as they are at
present is conceded by those who
are in a position to know most
about it.

ginning Monday morning at nine
O'Clock. The sessions will be
held in the court house. 1t is ex
pected that there will be $50

engaged are DR.. Ira Howerth, as
sistant professor of sociology in
the University of Chicago, Prof.
7. r. Nelson, supervisor of mus
ic and drawing of the Payette

Curtis, supervisor of elementary
English, Lewiston State Normal
school.

interest and the publis is cordial
ly invited TO attend them.

IDAHO'S WEALTH in SCHOOL
LANDS ALMOST UNEQUALLED
State Land Commissioner Day Predicts $4O Mark
Will Be Reached, and no Public
School Tax Levy.

George A. Day, state land COM
missioner and secretary Of the
state land board, says that of all
the western states none has a. bet
ter school land endowment than
Idaho, and he predicts that at NO
far distant point in the future il
will be unnecessary to levy any
special taxes to maintain the
public schools, while the state
will be dotted with institutions
providing the full high school
courses.
Mr.. Day states that there is
now in the common school en-
dowment fund of the state about
SIS, 100000. This is an irreduci-
BILE fund secured through the sale
of school lands and is loaned out
principally on farm lands and on
bonds, which return rates of in
terest from 4 to 6 per cent. There
still remains to be sold about g.
600, 600 acres of the school lands,
and as the constitution prohibits
a sale at less than $40 an acre,
it can be seen these lands are
destined to create a fund of at
least $20,O0O,O0O more. That fig
ure is modest, for the public
schools also own interests in
about 100000 acres of special
land grant lands, including much
valuable timber, these tracts Sc
cured in part through exchange
in lieu of sections 16 and 36, alb
sorbed by the forest reserves. 1t
would be conservative therefore,
to estimate the ultimate endow-
ment fund at 100000 to $4O,-
100000, with annual interest re-
turns of 81 100000 to $4,000, 900,
based upon 5 per cent invest
ment.
Mr.. Day says that full appreci-
alton of the Importance of the
$40 purchase clause in the con-
stitution was never gained by him
until he had attended the land
congress at Denver and met rep
resentatives of other states. Many
of the Western states sold their
lands for prices ranging from rs
cents to $3.50 an acre. North

Firemen's Prompt work saves
the Day-Law Offices
Suffer Greatly.

Fire was discov cred in the up
stains Of the First National bank
building at 4:3O Thursday MORN
ing by Walter Hickerson, and thu
alarm which was Immediately
turned in was promptly respond
ed to by the vigilant fire laddies,
and to this ready action was due
the salvation Of much valuable
property. As it was, the First
National, A. s. Hardy, Judge j.
r. Ailshie, w. II. Casady and e.
N. Griffith were the sole losers.
The fire originated in the up
stairs portion of the brick bank
building, Immediately in front of
the door of A. s. Hardy 8 law Of
flee, and from all indications was
the work Of an incendiary. The
extensive law library including
that of Judge j. F. Ailshie and
Mr.. Hardy combined, was CON-
pletely destroyed or badly dam
aged, with all the office fixtur-
es, law papers, etc, totaling up to
something like $1,000. The Of
fices of Prosecuting Attorney E.
M. Griffith and Attorney w. H.
Cassidy also suffered severely,
the books being smoked and
burned, damaging them material
ly.
The fire burned through the
floor at the point of origin,
which fortunately was immedi-
ately over the bank vault which
prevented the burning embers
from reaching the lower floor.
The flames burst through the
roof and illuminated the whole
town, but the work of the fire
laddies, ably assisted by the lev
ell headed citizens, and the fact
that the building was brick, soon
got them under control.
The bank room on the first
floor was flooded with water,
and the management was COM
PEELED to move temporarily to
the back rooms Of the Savings
and Trust company bank. While
Attorneys Hardy, Griffith and
Casady, and Stenographer Augur
have taken offices in the Wilks
and Telcher building over Fost-
ers Store. The dry goods store
of Crosby Co. and the Wright
grocery store were not damaged
IN the least, although only brick
walls intervened between them
and the raging flames. The dam
age in total is difficult to esti-
mate.

FRENCH CAPITAL
STRONG IN MEXICO

Mexico City, Mex, April 1S.-French
investments in the securities of Mex
ico's financial institutions total fully
$3.50, OO0,0 900, Mexican currency. 1t is
said that the French investors are re-

The recent appointment of Josef
Simon, Paris banker. as managing
director of the National Bank of Mex

orally known, that the National bank
is now a Mexican institution only in
name. About 80 percent of it's stock
is held in France.
The Bank of London and Mexico.
formerly controlled in England is now
controlled in France, and the same is
true of the Banco Central. of this cap
ital, Of which Enrique c. Creel is presi-
dent The Compania Bancaria de Fo-
mento Bienes Races. which has sup
piled much money for public improve
ments in Mexico during the last few
years, is also a French institution.
French investors control the Bank Of
Jalisco, the Bank Of Guanajuato, and
several other state banks.
