One of the things the storm
managed to check was the progress
being made by the County Board
of Taxation in compiling the ab-
stract Of ratables and the county
and state school tax. President
William Carman, of Metuchen, sot
into communication with Clerk
William A. Spencer, of this city,
early this morning and decided the
weather was against them, for the
present at least. A meeting was
held yesterday and another trip to
the county seat had been planned
for today.
Clerk Spencer stated today that
the two rates will be officially an
nounced Just as soon as the board
can lay hands on Assessor Henry
Warnsdorfer, of East Brunswick
township, and his tax book. He has
not reported to the board this year,
1t seems. Clerk Spencer was ;n-
structed yesterday to get the books
at all hazards and have the same
on hand by the next meeting of the
board.
Among the valuations compiled is

WORLDS BIGGEST LINER.

Some day next July a skyscraper

er to her berth at the New Chelsea
docks in New York. For they are
building sea-going skyscrapers these
days and they are doing pretty we'll

As a starter it may be said that the
length OF the Olympic, $50 feet 6 in
ches, is l82 feet greater than the
height OF the Metropolitan tower in
New York, the tallest on the continent
the Bunker Hill monument; and yet
any one who has toiled up the steps
to the top OF Boston's proudest land

not TO be sneezed at. Also the length
OF the Olympic and her sister ship,
the Titanic, launched in February.

the opinion that Caldwen could show
that Nampa was not Disseminated
against politically or in any other
way; that the people of this county
are opposed to the proposed anneXa-
ton to Ada county; that in fact
Nampa herself had no good reason
for wishing tho change.
Canyon county will have hear
ing before the committee today or
tomorrow. Some Of the leading
business men and taxpayers of the
county will appear before the COM
mittee in opposition to the Nampa

The Interests of the Junction City

Messrs. Walter Grif1ths, B. M.
Holt and j. B. Gowen went up to
Boise Wednesday evening to appear
before the house committee on
county lines and boundaries in OPP
position to the proposed annexation
of a part of Canyon county to Ada

nesday evening and Messrs. Gowen
and Holt Thursday evening. When
seen by a representative of the
Tribune Mr.. Grifiths said that he
and others had met with the com
mittee and arranged for a hearing
for both sides. The committee de-
cided to hear the affirmative or

about thirty-flve or forty people
were present from Nampa," said
Mr.. Grifiths, "and the committee
offered to hear Nampa's side of the
question then and there. The Nam
pa people availed themselves of the
opportunity and presented their
case Wednesday afternoon, Messrs
]. ]. Walling and Frank Estabrook
acting as spokesman.
'Mr. Eastabrook stated that the
interests of Nampa were harmon
ious with the interests of Boise;
that Nampa was not getting a
square deal politically in Canyon
county; that Nampa people did their
business in Boise; and in fact that
the people of Nampa wanted to
be annexed to Ada county. Mr.
Walling spoke along the same line
He stated that the interests of Nam
pa were in Boise valley and that
the Nampa taxpayers objected to
having all their tax money spent on
bridges across the Payette river. He
reiterated the statement that Nampa
was not getting a square deal in
politics. When asked by a commit
teeman If Nampa did not have a
member of the legislature he stated
that a Nampa man had been foisted
on them by the county. Mr.. Wal
ling was also asked If Nampa would
get better treatment from Ada
county. He replied thta the Nampa
people had strong hopes that they
would; they had great confidence in
the people of Ada county"

MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS

1 he MUNICIPAL election is approach
ing and it is tune the people OF Cald-
we'll We're considering men and meas
ures. The most important question
to be solved during the next year is
that OF lighting the city. Every fam
lily living i'll the town is directly con
cerned and the people should pledge
the next administration to take some
steps to tighten the burden. The price
the city and the individual is now pay
ing Tor hight and power is an outrage.
1t is unjust, unreasonable and exorbi-
tant. The Tribune is informed that
lighting now costs Caldwell more than
any other city of Idaho, while the
rate is supposed to be about the same
as IN other towns. 1t is said that il
is all IN the meter. Not content with
making from $500 to 1000 per cent
proht the meters are attuned to con-
cert pitch in order that the revenue
may satisfy the company.
The Caldwell Power company has
a plant in Caldwell worth from SIS
OOO to $4,000. 1t buys its electricity
at less than one cent per kilowatt and
sells 1t for from 9 to Is cents per kilo-
watt. 1t is estimated that the COM
pany is clearing from $4,000 to S20,-
oO0 per year in Caldwell. Such a tri-
oute is too much and the people are
lacking IN sense ii they stand it an
other year.
The municipality should buy the
power plant at its intrinsic value
build another power plant or induce
another power company TO enter the
he'd, Any one OF the three PROPOSE
tons Is practicable The Tribune
would favor buying the Caldwell
Power companys plant at reason
able hgure. The plant is here and il
would be useless to the company un-
less the city purchased it. There i
no desire on the part of anyone to
leave $4,000 worth OF useless proper

spring. 1t was listened to with
close attention and thoroughly APP

BELL TELEPHONE
BUYS INDEPENDENT
BELL COMPANY FINALLY BUYS
OUT THE INDEPENDENT
TELEPHONE PLANT.

Change Made in Telephone Affairs
One System Will be Used Here
after-Raise is Price is Promised
Although New Schedule Has Not
Been Adopted,
The Bell Telephone Co. has
bought out the Independent company
according to the latest information.
The deal was finally consumated
Friday Of last week and the transfer
Of the plant and equipment Is now
in progress. For some time the
deal has been in view. In fact the
Bell interests have practically wiped
cut the Independent telephone COM
panies in the Rocky Mountain states.
The first big transfer was at Salt
Lake. In most instances the indie
pendent plants and equipment have
been retained. Public policy would
favor such a course.
We understand that the same pol
icy will be followed in this section.
The Bell interests will owns and OPP
crate the Independent lines and ex-
changes. However the independent
plants will be retained.
In other cases the news Of the
transfer was followed by the an
nouncement of a raise in rates. Salt
Lake defeated the proposed raise for
the time being at last. 1t is a ques-
ton as to what will happen in Idaho.
There can be no excuse for a change
in schedule. Public sentiment has
forced the Bell to maintain its
present rates and it can do SO In
this instance.
The Independent Co. here was or
ganized about twelve years ago. II
is claimed that 1t holds the record
for competition with the Bell sys-
TEN. In other instances the indie.
pendent companies have been Of
short life.
