CRICKET NOW ON THE
DECLINE in BRITAIN

LONDON, Aug. 6.-Something is so
wrong with the British national sum
mer game of cricket that it's followers
write letters to the papers complaining
that the game is becoming decadent.
This criticism comes at time which
has been hailed as the banner year for
imperial cricket, with teams from Aus
tralia and South Africa competing OH
home grounds with England for the
championship of the empire. But thus
| far the triangular matches have been
exceedingly disappointing from the
standpoint of attendance. Recently
one of the most important county
matches attracted only 1879 spectators.
Most of the critics agree that the
fault lies in the showness of the game
and that something must be done to
shorten the matches which now last
generally three days. This plan for
merly suited the Briton, who took his
sports as solid part OF the slow
moving machinery of his existence, but
the English temperament has lost
much of its stolidity and the metropoli-
tan areas which supply the gates for
all games live and play at approxi-
mately the high speed with character
ICES American cities. The demand for
reform is in the air, but the players
are apparently satisfied with the pres
emf form of the game, and in any
new rule making they will be able to
Overrule those who are only interest
ed in the game from the spectators |
standpoint.
The loss of interest in cricket does |
not seem to have spread to other |
sports; on the contrary other games
are enjoying a distinct revival. Even |
the ancient games OF bowls is making |
great strides and in Wales the re-
Gently introduced game OF baseball is
becoming very popular.

TAXPAYERS TO INVESTIGATE COURT HOUSE
MUCkRAKER TELLS OF
JUDICIAL MALPRACTICE

NEW YORK, Jan. PA red hot
denunciation of American justice and
American courts, which he declares
are the last bulwark of the trusts is
voiced in an article by c. P. Connelly
a lawyer-publicist which appears in
Everybody's magazine and relates
specific miscarriages of justice. 1t
freely names men high in commercial
life and says Connolly is prepared to
prove that big business interests have
retreated into the courts and are go
ing to make their last stand behi ID
the judiciary. Connolly practiced law
in Butte, Mont, from 1884. He says
that in Butte he saw party conventions
packed to name judges in the interests
of the largest litigant in the state.

STANDPOINT, Ida, Jan. Ex-senator
Page of Standpoint, Bonner county, has
material candidacy of State Auditor
Stephen D. Taylor. In an interview
he authorized the statement that in his
opinion Mr.. Taylor is the strongest
candidate that the northern part of
the state has or can produce and that
he will receive the backing of a ma
jority of not only the voters in his
home county but of the entire north at
the republican primaries next fall He
declared there is little to the talk that
the state auditor has so serious a
fight on in Bonner county that he
cannot carry it, but predicts that he
will muster a handsome majority there.

candid opinion that State Auditor
Stephen d. Taylor is the strongest re-
publican gubernatorial candidate that
the northern part of the state has or is
likely to produce and that his home

Minutes of the Meeting.

MOSCOW, Ida, Jan. 23-A mass
meeting of the taxpayers OF LataI
county was held in the court house
Latah county, Idaho, for consideration
of the advisability of repairing the
present court house or the building OF
new one.
The meeting was called to order by
A. l.. Morgan. Upon unanimous con-
sent M. w. Harland was chosen chair
man and John Nisbet, secretary.
The question was discussed both
pro and con by many of the taxpayers
from various parts of the county
Thomas Bartly introduced the fol-
lowing resolution, which was second
ed by E. R. Wiswell, towit:
Resolved, That it is the sense OF this
meeting that Latah county records are
now in an exposed and dangerous con-
ditjon; that it's court house is entirely
Inadequate to the present needs of the
county and we urgently request the
county commissioners, to take such
steps as they shall deem best to pro-

day by cheering thousands when they
visited the stock exchangee, and were
forced to battle their way into the
stock exchange building from their
autos. When ready to leave more po-
lice guards were called to clear the
way for them. The party included
Ambassador Reid.
After visiting the exchange meeting
the members of the royal party left
and mixed up with a funeral process
sion. The hearse driver in trying to
get through mob drove behind the
Dukes automobile and the back of the
hearse followed the Princess ma
chine and then the mourners. At the
first intersection of street the party
escaped the mob by turning into
side street.

no question but that Mr.. Taylor could
carry that county and will carry it at
the primaries.
''Of all the north Idaho republicans
mentioned for the gubernatorial nomi-
nation, none, I am confident, is more
familiar with the conditions of this
state as they exist in southern Idaho
than Mr.. Taylor. That is a distinct
advantage. We of the northern part
of the state know conditions as they
exist in the north but are not familiar
with the south. Since he has been
state auditor Mr.. Taylor has given
these conditions close study. Being
from the north he knows conditions
there, but having been in a position to
study the south, he IS familiar with
this section"
According to Senator Page the ''old
ring" has been making the fight on the
state auditor in his home county, but
it has not been effective and the ring"
is rapidly losing it's power. Senator
Page was mayor of Standpoint and only
secured his election after hard fight
against the dominating politicians who
had opposed him. He considers Mr..
Taylor one of the progressive repub-
licans of north Idaho.

STEAM ROLLER WINS
FIGHT ON LEGISLATION

BOISE, Jan. "a. Especial to the Star
Mirror r.)-HGuSe Bill No. | was killed
in the house yesterday afternoon after
a desperate fight by the democrats led
by Morgan. The democratic leader
made every possible parliamentary
play in an effort to keep the bill alive.
The fight started in the committee
of the whole which recommended in
definite pOstpOnement. The fight from
then on was with the democrats seek
ing an adjournment or anything else
to prevent an action on the motion.
The majority finally crushed the Op-
position.

Three republicans voted in favor
of the bill and the democrats support
ed it unanimously. The republicans
say that it will pass the senate this
afternoon.
Morgan absOlved the minority men,
bers from party obligations to fight the
bill and seven democrats voted in IA
vOr of it.
1t is believed the tax commission bill
will be introduced this afternoon in
the house and indications are that a
combination will be formed of the
insurgent republicans and democrats
to carry it. 1t will probably be killed
in the senate.
