BANKRUPTCY TALK
BY CREDIT MEN IS
HELD As SECRET

That the management of the adjust
ment bureau of the Newark Associa-
ton of Credit Men is about to undergo
a change is one of the facts which
came to light today as a result of the
executive y, sion held by the trustees
Of the asANiation last night to con-
side. bankruptcy conditions complained
of by merchants in the STAR. Senator
Harry V. Osborne is the manager of
the adjustment bureau at present II
his alleged practises with other bank
ruptcy experts was the chief topic at
the session.
From an authentic source it was
learned today that the chief reason
for the secrecy concerning the meet
ing is that the majority Of the mem
bers decided to leave the matter pen
until afte. election"
This attitude has not the approval
of the members, who emphatically de-
clare the matter is not one of politics,
hut h a the good name and success of
the association is at stake.
President Curtis r. Burnett declared
today thet the time was not ripe" to
Z a~cos'6lflt the public with the action
Naken last night.
4 Several members of the association,
and President Burnett in particular.
have publicly stated that the practise
of the bankruptcy experts are UNI
ethical. TO say the least, and that n re-
form is necessary and imminent. The
association is anxious to clear itself
of all blame, and is deeply interested
IN bringing about bankruptcy reforms.
1t is believed that mother meeting will
be held In the near future to again
take up the matter.

ing signed statement:

TROPHY CUPS AS
MUTE WITNESSES
At THEFT TRIAL
Two Battered Prizes OF Franklin
Street Schools PrOwess
i'm Court.

Two battered cups that were once
the pride of the Franklin Public School
pupils as trophies won by their ath-
letic teams in 1907 today are the mute
evidence on which First Assistant
Prosecutor Fred r. Lehlbach is trying
to convict Walter Walsh of a charge of
breaking, larceny and entering.
The two smashed trophy cups are
not all that Lehlbach depends on, for
two persons besides Walsh who are
said to have been engaged in the COM
mission of the crime that took ten
trophy cups out of the Franklin School
on April 80 of this year are testifying
against him.
One is Frank Letzelter. who on the
witness stand today told how he. Walsh
and James Cassien, another younaster
who is still at large, walked into the
Franklin School, opened the case con
tanning the trophy cups and walked out
with them.
The other witness is Peter stump,
who at the time of the robbery was
employed as a Waterman by the L. NJ
Waldron Company on the work at the
Webster Street School and to whose
~'shanty'' Che called it "office') the
cups were taken following the robbec3
Of the school.
According to the stories told by Let
zelter and Stumpf, Walsh was the in
stlgator of the robbery which resulted
in the arrest of the three men named.
and John Rummell within SO hours of
the happening. Stumpf. the ~atsf,.
man, pleaded guilty last June to a
charge of receiving h stolen property
and was sentenced to serve six months
in the county penitentiary, Letzelter
also pleaded guilty to the charge of
stealing two of the ten cups taken,
and was placed on probation last June
with the understanding that he would
tell in court the real story of he
crime when Walsh came before the
judge.
Today he todd that Walsh, known as
''Squidge'' Walsh to him, had planned
to enter a tailor shop and steal a suit
of clothes for Rpnmell. He told also
how they did not Dc that. but instead
entered the barber shop Of Domenico
Ameinto at - Gurside street aud stole
a dozen razors and later went TO the
school.
1t was the razors that led 10 the un-
doing of the gang, for when Letzelter
tried to dispose of some of them i'll
Belleville tine following morning he was
arrested, and not only confessed to
the Ameinto theft, but also told of
the school robbery
Eight of the ten cups that were
stolen have never been found. The
police expect to find something out
about them when John Itumnlell, a
r~oustabout round the Webster Street
School building operations. is put OIL
trial. lie is now in the county jail,
and may appear as Il witness against
Walsh.
The two cups in evidence today were
found buried in the sand at the
Webster Street School cellar. where
Letzelter had hid them after pounding
them into "A pewter-like mass.

The Spokesman-Review thinks
the north Idaho legislators are
stingy because they are trying
to pass bill through the present
legislature preventing outside
corporations from controlling
our lakes and rivers and conduct
ing water from this state into
other states to the detriment of
the citizens of Idaho. If the
north Idaho people would allow
Spokane to overflow all the
lands in the Occur d'Alene dis
trict without paying for them
and do any other thing it
pleased the Review would per-
haps pat us on the back and say
we were nice children. Spokane
has grown rich for years at the
expense of north Idaho, and it is
about time the big town was be-
ing hauled up in it's greedy
career and be made to respect
the rights and interests of others.

MAKING A BIG MISTAKE.


Some criticism has been passed
upon the taxation methods en-
ployed in Idaho. While we ad-
nit that it is much easier to
criticise a condition than to i'm
prove it, we also believe that
criticism is one of the most fer
tile improvement procedures.
The state law provides the
basis of taxation shall be the
actual cash valuation of property
assessed. Now we all know this
law is being, violated by...severy
assessor in the state. An asses
sor with a properly profound re-
gard for the law of his state
mixed in equal proportions with
a proper regard for the financial
interests of the people of his
county, assesses the property of
that county on the basis of so
per cent of the actual cash valu-
ton. Some other assessor with
out the properly profound re-
gard for the law of his state"
and with an abnormal regard for
the financial interests of the peo-
pie of his county, fixes Is per
cent as the basis. MIt is easy to
figure out from this that some
counties pay more and some less
than they should pay. Then
they arrange a meeting at Boise
to plan uniform methods of ECU
cheering" eacn other in the as
sessments for the coming year.
What we need is a man. This is
not saying that our present as
SCISSORS are not men. They are.
What we need is a man who is
willing to take the lead. If one
assessor in Idaho this year, would
carry out the law to the letter,
he would be hailed as a bene-
factor to the whole state. He
might not be able to realize it,
and he probably would be about
as dead politically in his own
county as men ever get. But
the innovation would probably
result in some other assessor
conforming to the letter of the
law, and at any rate the noise
that would be raised in one coun-
ty would be heard in every cor
ner of Idaho. Uutil such a man
arises, the eastern man who con-
templates moving west will read
in the Idaho statutes that the
basis of taxation is the actual
cash valuation. Then he will
look up the rate Of taxation,
which, for property in some cities
happens to be 6S3 mills on the
dollar this year. He will figure
according to this, that the taxes
on $1,000 worth of property
would be $3.50, when as mat
ter of fact, it is only about one
third of that amount. Not I'M
derstanding our peculiar disre-
gard for the law in this respect,
he figures it out that he would
rather live in Oregon or Wash
ington, or in Missouri, or the
FIJI islands or most anywhere
else.
An assessor who would be will
ing to sacrifice his political per-
petuity by obeying the law,
would bring more settlers to this
state of Idaho than the whole
immigration department of the
state. -Orofino Tribune.
