progressive spirit of the age. Each
and every one of you have had the
benefit of the experience of a full
legislative session. many of you have
served in legislative capacity for
several terms, and you will be aided
in your deliberations by the report
and bills prepared by commission
composed Of two of the leading law
yers of the state, and I have purpose
ly kept the matter for your CONSIDER
alton limited to the one vital subject
SO that all your attention can be given
to 1t.
I am fully aware that agencies are
at work urging delay. and seeking to
make this legislative assembly doubt
its own wisdom and patriotism, but I
most sincerely believe that you will
not give heed to those who plainly
show they have Interior objects in
view and have resorted to the thread
bare tactics of the lobbyist. who. be-
ing unable to advance his own cause
by legitimate argument, seeks to
hinder progress by proposing inde-
finite and remote remedies
The time for action IS now, and the
people of Idaho look to this special
session of the legislature for the en-
actment of remedial legislation, and
have implicit confidence you will
approach the subject in the same
spirit in which it Is presented, abso-
iutely free from partisanship and with
the sole and single purpose of serving
the people of Idaho faithfully and
well.

This same condition once confront
ed our neighboring states of Wash

the differentiation competition in
Oregon that the taxable property as
returned by the assessors actually
decreased at one period as COM
pared with previous years. Both of
these states have created tax COM
missions with the result that the val
uations have been increased, the levies
reduced and more uniform and equit-
able assessments have been made.
The state of Ohio by means of a
tax commission and limiting the max
imum levies has also remedied evils
similar to those developing in Idaho.
The state Of Idaho should profit by
the experience of the older common
wealths and in this era OF universal
education and public discussion and
the great activities of the printing
press, with rapid communication.
there should be no need of investiga-
ton extending over a long period, as

PETE BRoWNlNG's BATS.
They Still Served the Old sugger After
He Quit Baseball.


One Of the oldest and most eccentric
characters baseball has ever produced
was old Pete Browning. the famous
slugger, who played with Louisville
around the eighties and later Joined
the Cleveland club In 1880 during the
Brotherhood war.
Pete was a little off i'm his roof gar
den and had only one idea In his head
day or night. Anything that concern
ed his precious batting average was
meat and drink to him. 1t made no
difference how many fly balls he drop
ped or let get by him as long as he
landed two or three safe ones during
, game.
Bats were mania with Browning.
| and whenever he could pick up a club
which suited him it was added to his
enormous collection. So many were
gathered at various points on some of
his trips that he sometimes was forced
to pay excess baggage on the prizes.
According to Van Haltren. it was
! Browning who introduced the habit Of
rubbing down bat with tobacco juice.
which custom is followed to this day
by many of the players. The idea is
to roughen the surface of the stick
and prevent SO many fouls slipping of
one side or the other.
Browning, who was a great user of
the weed. used to polish down his
sticks In this way without any appar-
ent reason until he commenced to be-
lieve that 1t made difference with his
biting, and after that no wagon tongue
o. his ever escaped coating Of the OBJ
noxious fluid
! Other players took it up in the hope
of emulating Browning, and now it Is
! a common custom throughout the coun-
! try.
When Pete retired from the game
all the bats. relics Of former days.
! were still In his possession. In order
! to keep them always in his sight Pete
| had them turned down to uniform
size and used them as posts for the
baluster in his house.
To the day of his death they remain
ed the most valued Of his possessions.

Full Cash Value.

The full cash value system Is main
tanned under the provisions of the
proposed revenue law as the basis for
assessment. This I urge should be
done. It Il impossible to equalize
taxation under any other system. Only
by assessing all taxable property at
JUS real value can the curse of high
tax rates be avoided. To the intend
ing settler. and to the prospective in
Vestor do high property values and
low tax rates most strenuously appeal.

The Waterproof Enterprise gives the
following account of the unfortunate
tragedy which occurred near Goldman
station last week:
The north-bound NJ, H. & L. freight
train was wrecked Wednesday a little
a little after IL O'Clock, near Goldman's s,
and was delayed eight or ten hours.
A SEQUEL to the wreck was the killing
of FLOYD Pickering, the foreman, on the
section where the wreck occurred, by
Constable John Shelton, who with Dep
uty Sheriff Emmett Marion, was trying
10 arrest him.
From the account Of the tragedy, as we
learn it, il seems that Mr.. Pickering was
drinking, and refused to let the crew OF
the wreckiug train, which was sent to
get the freight of, do anything towards
clearing the wreck, and attacked Mr.
McGehee Of the Efecker, when he re-
monstrated, bitfRfhis face up consider
ably. He then s>arted for his home at
Locust Ridge to get bis gun. In the
mean time, MIR. McGebee telephoned the
officers here and sent bis train after them
TO come and arrest him, the officers leav-
ing here about 4 O'Clock for the scene.
| The train proceeded past the Wreck on
to Pickering's house, arriving there just
a few second ahead Of him. As he came
M 10 the house, the officers advanced
and told him TO consider himself under
i arrest. and while Mr.. Shelton covered
him with a shot gun, Mr.. Marion was
ready to hand-cuf him. They understood
he had submitted, but when rather close
he ran into Mr.. Marion and knocked
him out Of the way, then made towards
Mr.. Shelton, and succeeded in getting
hold of the barrel of bis gun. Mrs. Pick.
ering was trying to get to her husband
i in the meantime, with two guns, anc
Mr.. Shelton says in the excitement ane
in the scuffie over the gun, it was fired
the whole load of buckshot entering
Pickerlng's body near the stomach, Oh
the LEFT side, killing him instantly.
The affair is deplorable, and is to b
regretted almost as much on the officers
account as on chickering's.

TIMELY ADVICE.

The Natchez Democrat OF April
18th contains the following:
1T. Mcclellan, president Of the
Fifth Louisiana Levee Board, tele-
phoned from Tallulah, La, to the
Democrat, last night, reporting a
break in the Alsatia levee, East Car
roll parish, La, fifteen miles south
of Lake Providence, and six miles
south of the crevasse Of 1903. He
said: 1T will overflow the same
section that the Hollybrook creyasse
of 1903 flooded, probably giving one
foot more water than it gave IN
1908. / make this statement to lei
the people in the affected district
know how much water to expect
"The creyasse at Alsatia will re-
lieve the stage altogether and NORTH
about fifty miles. This does MOI
mean that the watching, guarding
and caring for the leyees must b
let up.
THE stage viii be less, but tn
danger from siepage and sloughinl
of the levees is not lessened.
II therefore call ON everyone T.
keep as close watch as possible, a
they have been doing, without con
sidering the lowering OF the gauge.
This is wise and timely advice
The break at Alsatia win have tn
effect of lowering the food levt
along our front, but there yet re
main many anxious days ahead I
us before the danger is past an
there should be no discriminate
in the vigilance with which th
levee are watched until all dang'
is passed.
Tensas gazette. [volume] (St. Joseph, La.) 1886-current, 1912-04-12

The rise at St. Joseph for the "a hours
ending s a. m. Saturday was 20 OF
foot, making the gauge here half foot
higher than the flood Of 1897, which was
the highest on record.
On Friday evening about z o'clock,
the levee broke at Alsatia, in East Car
roll parish. Alsatia is about IL miles in
a direct line, and about 20 miles BY nv
er, below Lake Providence and is about
six miles south Of Hollybrook, where 8
crevasse took place in 1908. Biggs levee,
which broke in 1897, is situated about 8
miles below Delta, opposite Vicksburg.
The water from Alsatia crevasse is, Of
course, already flooding East Carroll and
Madison and will flow down the Tensas
River, backing up into the bayous and
OVERLOOKING the low lands in this parish
How high the back water win 60 Is con-
iectural. Conditions vary in every food
year and speculations as TO height the
present food viii reach in this parish arr
more or less guess-work at this writing
We fear, however, that owing to The
fact that the river from Cairo TO the
mouth Of Red River is at this date high
er than ever known before win cause the
inflow At Alsatia to be prolonged to
greater length Of time than the inflow
in 1897, from Biggs crevasse and, II
1908, from Hollybrook crevasse and that
consequently, We may have more bacl
water than in those years.
We should add that crevasse tool
place in the Arkansas line at Panthe
Forest, Miss, at 8 o'clock, Friday, Apr
u, and il is reported that the water iron
this break is flooding Chicot and Dish
counties, Arkansas.
The water from this crevasse viii adj
somewhat to the back water in thi
parish, particularly to points below th
mouth Of Bayou Macon. AS result 0
these creyasses the river is falling at LAX
Providence, vicksburg and st. Joseph
