HOTLY DENOUNCES

WASHINGTON, Jan. ia red hot
ldenunciation of gamblers in cotton,
wheat and corn were voiced today by
Senator Davis of Arkansas in the SEN
ate. He said: II want to see the gam
blers of New York driven out. There
is a growing sentiment that the gov
ernment has ceased to fulfill the
wishes of our fathers and has become
the tool of the oppressors and the
agent of the money kings and money
grabbers,'"' He named fifty-one mil
lionaires, whom, he said, controlled 80
per cent of the county's wealth, which
he estimated at 100000, 100000. He
declared it cannot be contended they
made the money honestly.

Latah county farmers do not take
kindly to Governor Hawley's plan tc
exempt property of less than $250C
valuation from taxation. They feel
that all property should bear its pro-

The expression of their opinion is

the Farmers Union:

Farmers Educational and Co-Opera-

CARNEGIE SAYS ]. S.
MUST FIX STEEL PRICE

WASHINGTON, Jan. l1.-Andrew
Carnegie was on the stand again to-
day before the Stanley committee. To
days cross examination opened with
inquiries into the growth of the Car
negie steel company capitalization
from $250,0O0,OOO to $420,O0O,O00 in
1900. Members attempted to get Car
negie to admit that suchngrowth was
unreasonable.
Congressman Beall asked Carnegie
whether he thought there was the
same incentive for development and
improvement, under a single big COR
poration that there was in smaller con-
Germs.
Carnegie replied: Il don't believe a
corporation can manage any business
like a partnership. 1t is the same as
a mans owning the land that he tills
ard lives on"
Carnegie then declared personal in

rapid growth the coming year than it
has seen for some time, and when
business gets settled once more there
will be more improvements and de-
velopment than at any time in the
history of the town.
By a planning mill the Star-Mirror
means plant that would manufacture
building supplies something like the
Troy plant, which has maintained a
payroll of thousands of dollars an
nually. If such a plant can be main
tanned in town OF a few hundred
and the Troy factory has been a big
success, why not in Moscow, the busi-
ness center of an empire? The Star
Mirror is going to advise these men
to either come or send some capable
person to Moscow that they may see
our town and look over the country,
satisfied tat Moscow will not suf-
fer from any investigation that may
be made.

The Star-Mirror Is in receipt of {
letter from an Oregon firm wanting to
know if Moscow has a planning mill
Would there be any show to placa ono

tions asked are: What is the popula-
tion?" rs there much 5uilding?" and
"Can you give us the name of some

In reply the Star-AElrror is going
to say: Moscow is progressive city

Inland Empire, with a vely bright
future. There is need here of a plan

this the Star-Mirror believes the peo-

TAXPAYERS and Business Men Are Pre-
pairing Petition to Ask Bond
Election.

Prominent taxpayers and business
men in the county are behind a move
ment which took form today, to build
a new court house in Latah county
Petitions are being prepared by
Morgan & Morgan, at the taxpayers
request, asking the county commits
sioners to submit to the vote of the
pee pie at the next election the question
of voting bonds to build new home
for the county offices, at cost not
to exceed 100000.
The amount definitely needed has
not been fixed upon, the petition ask
ing the commissioners to fix the
amount, after careful study of plans,
specifications, costs, and county needs.
If it will be necessary to build court
house at cost of 100000 well and
good, if the needs of the county for
fifty years can be supplied for less,
as is believed, then bonds in the lesser
sum will be voted.
A careful consideration of the mat
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1912-01-11

| ter leads those behind the movement
| to believe that the necessary building
can be erected at cost of about $85,
600.
The taxpayers all over the county
seem to be in favor of the plan. The
present court house is frightfully
crowded. 1t is inadequate to the
county's needs, and in parts it is un-
Sanitary, and ramshackle. 1t is not only
an eyesore in the city, but to the farm
ers of the county as we'll.
The cost of the building would be
slight upon each taxpayer. Under
the present valuation the addition of
one mill to the present levy would
raise 100000 in five years, and the
direct annual cost to each taxpayer un-
der the bonding plan would be very
slight.
The movement will be thoroughly
organized in a few days, when COM
mittee will be named to place the
facts in the case, and the direct needs
of the county before all the people.

ship plan as exemplifiea in the merg-
er.
Carnegie attempted to evade ques-
tions designed to determine how and
why the steel business has stood
practically still since 1900, by declar-
ing that he had not kept in touch with
the situation.
Responding !. to Beal's questioning
Carnegie said he believed the day of
competition was over. When asked
why competition had ceased he said
Because the corporation representa-
tiyes are able to sit down and agree
to fix prices and maintain them.
This is obvious"
When asked how the condition could
be remedied Carnegie said
THE government should fix max
imum prices"
Finally Carnegie admitted that the
steel trust dominates the industry.

the confidence of their children. He
tcld how he had met these ordeals il
his own family, and what others hat
done. "The hope of the nation is iT
the boys" he declared, and said that
he hoped he was doing a work that
would result in good.
Probaly the most interesting part OF
the lecture was the history the noted
doctor gave of two families. He sht W
ed how they had followed the descend
ANTS of one man till the family number
ed some 1900, and how they were all
failures, many criminals, some pau
pers, and not one success. Not one
attended a college. The other family
was a noted one, the greatest of
whom was the great preacher, JON
athan Edwards. This, too, was a large
family, and it was found that some
fourteen hundred of these people were
universally great and good and strong
and successful. They had been col
lege presidents, great statesmen, sue
cessful busines men and eminent in
the professions. They were men and
women of refinement and education.
But two or three of this family had
ever been connected with suspicion
of crime.
Dr. Winship told how, in later years,
by changing the environment Of the
of the family of failures a
change had been brought about, show
ing that the saints in society, Or the
better classes, can redeem the rascals,
or the lower classes. He showed how
it was being accomplished in. many
American cities today.
The lecture was highly instructive,

DR.. A. E. Winship, who lectured in Eg-
gan's opera house as one of the reg
ular features on the high school en-
tertaainment course, last night. His
subject was Saints and Sinners" and
proved a most delightful one to the
person interested in boys. Dr. Win
ship showed how true reforms in the
people must come, not from legislative
enactment, but from the people them
selves, and said that raScals, mean
ing the lower stratas of society, the
criminal classes, must be saved by
the people, as Judge Lindsey is do
ing, or this nation will eventually pass
away He showed how the rascals are
being saved, telling of the work in
Denver, Los Angeles and Toledo. In
these cities they have, the speaker said,
worked such wonders as to the man
who has not seen it is hard to un
derstand Cigarette smoking, vulgar
language and profanity are uncommon
among the boys. Seldom is boy
brought into the police court for any
crime. Stealing is almost unknown,
and the spirit has reacted and had an
elevating influence on the parents. The
lower classes are becoming better; it |
is making better fathers and better
citizens.
DR.. Winship talked about the train
ing of the boy, illustrated his
points with stories of actual cases.
He told parents why they must stay
close to their boys, and that it was
the parents fault if they did not have
