IDAHO HOME
PRINTING Law
is SUSTAINED

BOISE, Idaho, Dec. -+9.-It is
unlawful to have state and county
printing and book binding done out
side of this state, for that section
of the revised codes which so holds
is constitutional and not in viola
ton of the fourteenth amendment
of the federal constitution or in
contravention of the interstate
commerce law, according to the
opinion of the supreme court of this
state, handed down late last week
in the case of Emmett J. Gemmill,
| former assessor of Latah county,
charged by the owners of the Star
Mirror of Moscow with letting con-
tracts for county printing to Spo-
kane firm, outside of this state.
The supreme court quashed the
writ of habeas corpus issued against
| Gemmill and he is remanded to
the custody of the sheriff of Latah
county. Justice Sullivan dissents
from the opinion, which is written
by Justice Stewart on the grounds
the provisions of the revised codes
bearing on the case were passed
for the purpose of, and do, create
a monopoly or trust in favor of the
printing establishments of the state
and are repugnant to the provisions
of section 1, article IA of the con-
stitution.''

PROPOSES
CONCRETE CHAIRS

Thomas A. Edison, who recently
startled the world by saying he
would make it possible to build a
concrete house for $1,000, went fur
Their and declared that in the near
future he would put on the market
concrete furniture. The inventor
already has made a reinforced con-
crete cabinet for one of his inven-
lions and pieces of furniture made
in the new way are enroute to
Chicago and back to show what
they can stand in the way of re-
sisting handling by freight men.
At present the weight of the fur
niture is about 33 1-3 per cent
greater than wood, but Edison ex-
poets to reduce the excess to %
per cent.
Il am going to have concrete
furniture that will make it possible
for the laboring men to put furni-
ture in his home more artistic and
more durable than is now to be
found in the most palatial resi-
dences in Paris or along the
Rhine" said Mr.. Edison recently.
Will it be cheaper" he was
asked.
"Of course it will If | couldn't
put out my concrete furniture any
cheaper than the oak that comes
from Grand Rapids | wouldn't &c
into the business. If a newlywed
say now, starts out with $3.50 worth
of furniture, on the installment
plan, | feel confident that we car
give him more articles and more
durable furniture for 5000, I'll also
be able to put out a whole bed
room suite for So or $6.
Hardly less interesting than his
prediction as to the furniture wa!

NEVADA'S EARLY
HISTORY and WHAT
NAME SIGNIFIES
NEVADA RECEIVED NAME FROM
SPANISH - SIGNIFIES SNOW
CLAD OF WHITE.

In a bulletin recently issued by
the census bureau some interesting
facts are given out by the census
director. In speaking of the his
tory of Nevada, the bulletin, in a
note, says that Nevada is a Span
ish word, signifying snowclad or
white, as snow The first white
man who ever came to Nevada was
probably Francisco Garces, a
Franciscan friar, who passed
through Southern Nevada in 1915
on his way to Sonora, Cal. Other
friars followed him, but no settle
ments were made at that time.
In 1925 the Humboldt river was
discovered by Peter S. Ogden, of
the Hudson Bay company, and in
1899 trading post was established
at Genoa Although settlements
grew up in Nevada at that time
there was never much of a popu-
lation in Nevada until the discovery
of the Comstock lode in 1859.
Territory Coded.
1t tells of the territory now COM
posing Nevada being coded to the
United States by the treaty OF
Guadalope-Hidalgo in 1S4S, and OF
| the organization of the state il
1854
The bulletin states that the pop
ulation of the state is now S1,S75
and compared with a population o
42,335 in 1900. This represents al
increase of 93.4 per cent over thu
population of 1900. During thu
two preceding decades the popula
ton decreased 23.9 per cent. Land
er has the smallest population o
any county in the state, having
only 1856 inhabitants, while Washo'
has the largest, having II, ABA. II
total area of the state is 1882
square miles, and. the average mum
Der of persons to the square mil
in 1910 was Z. In both 1900 ant
1880 it was A. Nevada has at thi
time lower density of population
of any of the states of the Uniol
and therefore more room for neN
citizens. Nye county with 1929
square mics, has the greatest are
and Ormsby county, with 1856 squar
miles and 21.9 persons per squar
mile, has the smallest area and tn
highest density of population. Doug

cities and one town OF these di-
visions ; cities form part of the
precincts in which they are located.
