THE GEMMILL CASE"

There isn't anything complicated
about the Gemmill case The facts
are that Assessor Gemmill sent out
of the county and out of the state fcl
simple job Of printing; sent out for
two jobs that but year before, under
democratic administration, had been
done in the county for some 500. And
what did the taxpayers of Latah coun-
ty pay for the work when they came to
settle the bill? Instead of 500, charg-
ed by the Star-M Mirror, the Latah coun-
ty taxpayers paid $40 plus the cost of
getting the work to Moscow from Spo-
kane, or more than $50 In other
words it cost the taxpayers at least
S21 more to get the work done, in vio-
lation of law, out of the state, by AS
SCISSOR Gemmill, than it did the year
before to get it done in the county.
The constitutionality of the law was
tested. In other words, Assessor Gem
mill, and the Idaho Post, insisted that
the law was unconstitutional; that it
was violation of the constitutional
rights of Mr.. Gemmill to prevent him
from squandering $21 of public funds
if he wanted to. But the supreme
court of the state sustained the law
And the case now goes to the district
court for trial. So an effort must be
made to prejudice the jury. Mr. Gem
mill must not be convicted. A jury
of Latah county taxpayers must be
found who will justify this viola
ton of law and the squandering of
funds.
The case is not an Outgrowth of
personal enmity. Mr.. Gemmill has al
ways received the hearty support of
the complaining witness. When, in
violation of law, about the first of the
year, he sent the first work to Spokane, |
his attention was, in friendly way, |
called to the law He said it was an
oversight, and laid the responsibility |
on the shoulders of his deputy. Three
months later the county again paid
for work done for Mr. Gemmill in
violation of law, and at an exhorbitant
price. The Star-Mirror once more
called the matter to the attention of
the assessor, and he again attempted
to sneak out of any responsibility by
charging his deputy with doing it.
The case was brought against 10th
the assessor and the deputy that the
facts might be brought out, and only
the assessor was held. Clinton Wilson

Strenoth Of a Gar.

A story is told In st. Petersburg
which illustrates the phenomenal phys
ical strength OF the old car. AT a
little station not far from the capita,
the imperial train was delayed for
quite a time, and the car, being
hungry, partook Of some Of the simple
food of the buffet Meanwhile the lit
tie daughter Of the mayor presented
the empress with bouquet, the fiow-
ers Of which were hastily gathered
from private hothouses in the neighbor-
hood. The stalks being still damp and
earthly, the empress yisibly hesitated
to take the bouquet in her neatly gloved
hand. The car coolly took up one Of
the heavy pewter plates on the table,
and twisting 1t as II 1t were paper,
made a neat covering for the stalks
There Is nothing incredible in the story
since the czar had been known to bend
kitchen poker as an ordinary mar
would a strip OF tin.

'There are something like 100000

tain 100000 pounds Of sugar, or 1900
tons. Data collected for 1900 indicate
that this quantity OF pomace is pro

pomace is sugar
