IDAHO STATE BONDS RRING
READY PREMIUM IN THE EAST
State Treasurer O. w. Allen Dsposes of 500 Worth
of Idaho Bonds to Eastern Investors at Premium of
$11625, Showing Idahos Good Standing.

The last legislature issued bonds
to the amount of $1,161 500 for
the completion of the state cap
itol building, the construction of
bridges, wagon roads and inn
provements at the various state
institutions. State Treasurer o.
V. Allen went east recently to
negotiate the sale of the same,
and has succeeded in disposing
of the entire amount most ad-
vantageously. Attorney Jess b.
Hawley, who acted as counsel for
Mr.. Allen, says in reference to
the sale:
"Mr. Allen has been very busy
the past few weeks in the finan-
cial centers of the east lining up
bidders for these securities and
was quite successful in interest
ing some of the strongest finan-
cial concerns dealing in western

AILsHIE STANDS WELL.

While the present political
milling" is going on in the
state from which final align
ment will come, it will no doubt
be pleasing to Judge Ailshie's
many Idaho county friends to
read the following comment from
a southern Idaho paper on the
the position which the editor be-
lieves Mr.. Ailshie occupies with
the people the state over. This
being true, it is not improbable
that the judge will be again urg-
ed by those who hold him in high
lteem to lay aside the Judicial
robe and stand for some office
which will call for a more active
political life and give his party
the benefit of his ability as an
organizer, as well as logical and
forcible speaker. But whether
Mr.. Ailshie will accede to the
demand this time, or once more
turn deaf ear to the call of his
rarty to a broader field and one
Of far greater possibilities to one
who has ambitions in political
direction, remains to be seen, the
answer to which lies locked in
the judges own breast. The ar
,cle referred to says:
There is perhaps no man in
Idaho who has a better hold on
the people of the state than
Judge J. +. Ailshie, of the state
supreme court. He is now serv-
ing his ninth year on the bench.
Nominated the first time by
acclamation, renominated the
second time the same way and
with his political opponents nam
ling no one to run against him,
he occupies a position that few
ever reach. He would be gov
ernor today, had he acceded to
the demand to become a candi-
date last year; or senator, had he
allowed his name to be present
ed to the Legislature two years
ago.

"CASH VALUE"
TAXGETSJOL
Majority of the Equalization
Board Now Oppose Gov.
Hawley's Plan.

If Governor Hawley enforces
the cash value" taxation plan,
or by the Eternal, fires" any
assessor who fails to come
through with what the governor
says he must, In the way of fix
ing values, he will have to do 50
on his own initiative and not as
a member of the state land board
of equalization.
On the return of State Treas
urer Allen from the east this
week, where he has been during
all the tax agitation, negotiating
million dollar bond sale, he
came right to the front and de-
clared that he was not in favor
of the enforcement of the cash
valuation plan of taxation so
strenuously advocated by Gov.
Hawley, without preparatory leg
islation, and would oppose it as
member of the board of equal
iZatlon.
Secretary of State Clifford, who
has been studying the vexed prob
lem, says he has also reached the
conclusion that the plan is inn
practicable under present condi-
tions, and that he will therefore
oppose it as a member of the
board. He says, being newly
elected and unfamiliar with the
duties of the board of equaliza
ton, he relied upon the legal
knowledge of Gov. Hawley in the
first place, but that his careful
investigation, consequent upon
the wide agitation of the vexed
question, leads him to the ire
vocable conclusion that the plan
as advocated is not to the best
interests of the people, and he
will consequently oppose its en-
forcement.
State Auditor Taylor has op-
posed the innovation all along,
and this now lines up three of
the board, Taylor, Allen and Gif-
ford, against Governor Hawley
and Attorney General McDougall
provided the latter decides to
stand with the governor.

securities. In the beginning of
our efforts, it was suggested by
a number of banking houses that
because of the low rate of inter
est the bonds bear, it would be a
surprise if the bonds brought par,
and only the day before bonds
of Cook county, in which county
Chicago is situated, sold for a lit
tie over SO. Consequently it was
indeed an agreeable surprise that
every bid for the Idaho bonds
was for par, accrued interest, and
premium bearing from $3.50 to
$11, ,625. e. w. Rawlins & Sons,
of Chicago, the Continental and
Commercial Savings bank of Chi
cago and A. V. Leach of New
York were the best bidders, and
were awarded the bonds, and
Treasurer Allen will remain in
the east until the details are fin
ally agreed upon.

ELI GETS THERE.

Eli Ingram, the printer twirl-
er, who is now holding eases on
the Wireless" the Clifford pap
er, is also making good as a
pitcher. Eli always has shown
up in good form in the box, but
has not been doing much at it
since his severe sick spell eigh-
teen months ago. However, his
rest-up seems to have done him
no injury, as is shown by the re-
suits of his work in hot game
between the Giffords and Lap
wal Indians last Sunday at the
latter place, which resulted in a
score of 2 to 4 in favor of Gif-
ford. The Wireless says In
gram was ON the mound for the
winners and pitched a great
game, striking out II of the In
dians, while Bruce Cleveland
took care of the backstop work
and played an errorless game
Ingram held the Indians helpless
aside from the fifth inning, wher
three hits in a row netted the In
dams two scores. This was the
only break the redmen were able
to make throughout the entire
game.

VOLLMER GETS
FIRE BAPTISM
Five Business Houses Swept
Away-$1O,OOO Loss with
Light Insurance.

A disastrous fire swept our Sis
ter town of Vollmer on Monday
of this week, carrying away five
business houses and entailing a
loss of some $4,000. The fire
originated in the upper story of
the residence of Attorney j. S.
Mcdonald, brother of G. T. Me-
Donald of this place, in rooms oc-
cupied by two young lady teach
ers, Misses Holmes and Campbell,
at 9 80 a. m, the cause being un-
known.
The flames had reached such
headway when discovered that
with the means at hand it was
impossible to stay their rayages,
and they swept everything be-
fore them until the brick bank
building was reached, at which
point they were subdued. The
only means of fighting the fire
was a bucket brigade, the new
chemical engine for some reason
refusing to do duty when brough
into action. The losses sustained
are as follows:
j. S. Mcdonald, $1,000; light
insurance.
j. NJ. McGee, 81, 500; insurance
$1,000.
Nez Perce Cooperative Tele
phone company, $500; no insur
ance.
George Martin, 81 400; prob
ably no insurance.
w. L. Lyon, $4,000; some in
surance.
Ramsey Furniture company
81, 100; some insurance.
R. Fl. Wallace, 81, 800; some in
surance.

DIAMOND DUST:
WHAT'S DOING
Sites 10, Highs 11-Regu-
lars and Highs Tussled-
Genesee Here Friday.

The Sites Juniors came up
last Friday with a good bunch
of spheric artists and engaged
the Grangeville high school boys
in a closely contested game, re-
sulting in score of 10 to IL in
favor of the locals.
1t is considered that the high
school boys did well to hold the
visitors level and little more, in
view of the fact that they had
had no practice, the old grounds
being closed to playing and the
new park just being completed,
and they are entitled to praise
for the results.
The visitors have good ag-
gregation, but they seemingly
were unable to get off right on
THE start, failing to connect with
the Harris shoots and curves un-
til the fourth inning, when they
seemed all at once to catch the
idea, and they proceeded to
pound out seven scores, giving
them lead of four over the To-
calls. For that and the following
innings or two the visitors had
things pretty much their own
way; then the high school lads
pulled themselves together and
proceeded to make hits and runs
until the close, winning by the
narrow margin of one score. 1t
was anybody's game all through
the last half, and there was no
occasion for boasting from eth
er side. There was a fair atten-
dance considering the day and
the short notice given the game.
The receipts were $41.25.
Practice Game Was Played.
The bunch connected with the
regular league and the high
school boys, had practice game
Sunday afternoon, Carr, Moses
Brown and Archer on the pitch
ing force of the regulars, taking
turns in twirling for the higl
school boys. 1t was a warm, lazy
day, and there was not mucl
ginger injected into the maneuv
ering on either side; still it fur
nished good sport, and gave botl
: teams the practice which they ar
!. greatly in need of. The fact il
the Grangeville ball players ar
laboring under a great handical
. this spring, made necessary b.
: the abandonment of the ol'
grounds, which has left them alb
lsolutely no place to practice whe
the weather conditions have beel
favorable. But from now ol

Sites CREAMERY.

Rev. j. B. York of Clearwater,
who is working in the interest of
the creamery which is being put
in at Sites, was in the city over
Wednesday night. Mr.. York is
soliciting support for the new
enterprise by listing the number
of cows which the farmers will
pledge to furnish the milk sup
ply from and is also selling stock
Over 500 cows have been pledg-
ed already and almost so shares
of stock have been taken. Mr..
York is the man for the place
he is filling in the promotion OF
this enterprise.
There will be a meeting of the
creamery stockholders at Sites
on Saturday, May 9th, at which
date action will be taken for the
construction of the creamery
building. All stockholders art

Genesee Highs Here Friday.
The Genesee high school team,
one among the very best in this
section, will meet the Grangeville
high school boys at this place on
Friday afternoon of this week.
The Genesee boys will play sew
eral games as they come up the
line, including the high schools
of Lewiston, Vollmer, Nezperce
and Cottonwood, playing at the
latter place on Thursday. This
should be very interesting
game, and should bring together
a good attendance. Genesee
ranks well up in all kinds of ath-
letics. 1t has had one of the best
basket ball teams in north Idaho
for the past two winters; it took
second place at the interschool-
astic track meet at Lewiston, and
so far this season the ball team
has won all games engaged in.
Cottonwood VS.. Grangeville.
Manager Algie received the
schedule for the seasons games
this week which has Grangeville
and Cottonwood down for a game
at this place on Sunday, May 7th.
New Suits Have Been Received.
The new baseball suits ar
rived the first of the week and
the leaguers appeared in them in
a practice game Monday for the
first time. They are maroon and
white and show up in fine shape.
Only ten were ordered, and it
has been decided to order anoth-
er suit right away.
Will Play at Lewiston Sunday.
The Grangeville regulars will
go to Lewiston Sunday, where
they are scheduled for a game
with the very best the metrop'
oils can scare up in the way OF
base ball talent. If the locals
take the banana eaters down the
line like the Reubens' boys did
it will have the effect Of making
them sit up and take notice OF
the Prairie Leaguers any way
they will know they have been tc
a game.

Women CnnnOt Vote.

SAN Francisco, Nov 6.-Calif0rnia
women generally will not be permitted
to participate in elections held this
year, owing to a state law that regis
tration must close 40 days before elec-
ton.
Women cannot vote at the munci-
pal election here next Tuesday for
that. reason. The Los Angeles muni-
cipal election, which takes place De-
cember 8, permits time for women to
legally register. Several small towns
are sim 'larly affected, but in the ma
jority of California cities women will
not vote at munio pal elections this
year. The difference is caused by mu-
nicipal charters fixing different elec-
ton dates.

Thomas Manros was arrested with

to save him from the vengeance Of

ground that he was ignorant of the

TWO MORE JURORS
QUIT MCNAMARA BOX
For Once, Judge Bordwcll Allows
Challenge of Defense
Other One Ill.

Hall of Records, Los Angeles Cal,
Nov. with the convening of court
this morning. twenty members of the
fourth venire for the Mcnamara trial
were on hand for examination for
jury service on the case.
Judge Bordwell allowed the chal-
lenge of the defense against Juror
Andrews and he was excused, despite
the protestations of the prosecution.
Andrews said that he could not be
fair to the McNamaras, as he disliked
unions and believed that the Times
building was dynamited and that the
unions were indirectly responsible for
the destruction. He stated that many
of his friends were in the building at
the time of the explosion.
The prosecution maintained that
Andrews was not personally bias
against the McNamaras, and should
therefore be declared eligible to sit
on the jury, but was overruled by the
court.
Juror Hanning, who was considered
by both the defense and prosecution
TO be emminently fair, was also OK
cused this morning, as his health i:
poor and he could not stand the lOrE
trial.
