JOHN T. MORRISON.

John T. Morrison, candidate for the
republican nomination Of governor
takes exceptions to the letter of d. H
Budlong, register of the Occur
d'Alene land office during the time
Morrison was governor, and in a
lengthy letter to the Star-Mirror tries
to explain. Mr.. Morrison denies that
there was anything wrong, and insists
that the original letter was misquoted.
Mr.. Morrison insists that the former
democratic administration was entire

Let us consider few facts that Mr..
Morrison cannot deny. He was COVER

THOSE MAIN STREET SEATS.

The CITY Beautiful" has at least sue,
ceeded in stirring up lot of discus
sion relative to those seats on Main
street, and protest is made by some
of those who have been enjoying the
comfort of seat where the old men
A number of very respectable old
gentlemen have protested to the Star
Mirror against the charges made by
the ladies, and deny that the law is
being violated as regards splitting on
the sidewalk, or that disrespectful re-
marks are ever made about ladies who
happen to pass.
The police department insists that
it is being unfairly treated, and
Deputy Sheriff Sterling, who was one
of the five mentioned yesterday, says
that they were not splitting ON the
walk He says that Chief Blacker
called their attention to the fact that
a lady had just protested, and that an
examination showed no evidence of eX-
pectoration on the walk there.
The benches were placed along the
street after the Fourth two years ago
in response to a petition from dele
CATION of old men, some of them old
soldiers, who said that it afforded

not congregate in stores; that they
did not like to loaf around cigar stands
and card rooms in the foul air and that
they would like to have some of the
benches left And the merchants, in
response to this request, paid for the
planks and left the seats. - 100 z. Z
That these seats are apzfeedat eu

daily occupy them. And while@ the
Star-Mirror is with the movement to
beautify Moscow, and opposed to any
violation of the law, and especially
that of expectorating on the walks, it
be removed. AT least not until the
city provides some comfortable place
to take the place of Main street. The
ideal condition would be a vacant lot
in the center of town, with ample
shade, a drinking fountain, and con

afford to some degree a substitute.
May it not be suggested that we leave
the benches, with the stopping of any
Objectionable feature. There need be
no violation of the law. There prob
ably is no more splitting than there |
would be were the seats removed and |
the men forced to find seats along the
curb, in stairways or on the projecting
base of Main street buildings.
The Star-Mirror would not be under
stood as pretending that there has been
no violation of the law against splitting
on the sidewalk Men have abused
their privileges, and the ladies have
sometimes been offended, and justly
so, by the unsightly COB of tobacco
juice that some human cesspool has
belched forth. And the Star-Nlirror
would have this law for sane reasons,
rigidly enforced. The ladies claim it
is not, and condemn the police Of
fcers. If there is ground for this pro-
test let the cause be removed. If
there are Objectionable features let
them be remedied but there appears
no good reason for removing the
benches. They are affording much
comfort to the old men who cannot be
charged with being lazy, undesirable
citizens Rather let us make an eff ;
fort to provide every possible comfort {
and convenience for people who make
Moscow their home.

Now The Time.

Many farmers are now through
with their crops and others will
finish in few days. This seems
to be an Opportune time to begin
working the roads, as the sooner
they are worked, the better will
be their condition when winter
comes. Farmers have been so
busy this spring that it would
have seemed unreasonable to ask
them to do any thing that would
divert their time from their
crops. Now that crop time is "a
bout passed work on our roads
should begin. We hope to see
every road overseer leave. his
road in one condition for the win
ter, that is a ditch on each side
and oval shaped between these
bitches. This is not impossible
and should be done. With the
roads in this condition you will
hear less complaint this winter
from mud roads than ever be-
fore.

for each workinedav. New mining
and transportation developments
will, it is believed. result in sui
stantial gains in production IN
the near future.
Kentucky is one of The leading
States in the mining If coal by
the use of machines, ranking
next to Ohio in the percentage
of machine-mined tonnage to the
total production. In 1911 nor.
than 6o per cent. of the OUTPUT.
or 9,OO2, 2SS short tons, was min
ed by machines. The proportion
of Kentucky coal thar is shot of
the solid is also much less than
in the neighboring States, where
the use of mining machinery has
not been so highly developed.

Powell Corn the Best.

1t is a conceded fact that Ken
tucky corn makes far better meal
than does the Western corn.
There is plenty of home raised
corn in this county, especially in
the eastern portion. Mr.. Burke,
the well-known Rosslyn miller,
says he has not yet ground any
Western corn and will not have
to this season, as he has plenty
of Powell county corn in sight to
supply his trade for the entire
season. With Powell county
corn and ground on buhr stones
with water power, We would like
to know how the the Burke meal
can be equalled anywhere. If
our people want the best in corn
meal they will call for Burke's
meal. 1t is or should be sold at
every store in the county. Pow
ell county people should call al
ways for Powell county products
and IN this way help to build up
Powell county enterprises.

Kentucky Has Good Coal Year.

The coal mined in Kentucky
In 1911 amounted to 13, 7O6, S3G
short tons, valued at the mines
at $B,6l7.217, according to a
statement of Edward W. Parker.
just issued by the United States
Geological Survey. This was a
decrease compared with the pro-
duction for 1910 of 926, 1870 short
tons, which, considerin" the alb
normal increase IN 1910 due TO
strikes in other coal-producine
States, is considered small. Al
together, Mr.. Parker saws, the
year 1911 may be considered as
generally satisfactory TO the coal
mining industry of Kentucky,
for In both production and value
there was substantial increase
over any year prior To 1910. Com
pared with 1907, when the pre-
vious maximum tonnage was re-
corded, the production IN 1911
showed an increase of nearly 3, =
oOO,OOO tons In quantity and of
more than -, POO 900 in value.
The number of men employed
in the coal mines of Kentucky in
1911 was 81, ,S21 about half of
these worked ten hours, about
one-fourth nine hours day, and
the others eight hours "A dav.
The average production for each
man in thes mines was about 62S
