instance will suffice.

Mr. Fields denies that Senator Day and Rep
resentative Morgan secured this
The statement as published in this space is
correct is verified by the records and is at
tested by both Dean Carlyle and Professor
Aldrich of the university who have been asked
regarding it, Moreover, the original appropri-
alton was $4,000 as secured by Senator Day
and Representative Morgan. Governor Hawley
cut it to $4,000. The Latah delegation after
wards convinced him that that was not enough
money for the purpose and Governor Hawley
gave special permission to Dean Carlyle to
overdraw the appropriation for that purpose
ana the result of the efforts OF these friends
and workers of the university. regardless OF
Mr.. Fields published statement, the University
Extension work will have spent over 1872 900

An Answer.
why don't you folks urge Frank Moore for
the appointment of United States senator"
asked a good republican. at would be worth
great deal to Latah county to have him in
that position. We have French con-
gress, and we will have him next term. An
other Latah county man would be great for
Latah county"
The reason we are not urging Frank Moore
for the appointive term in congress is that we
working for Frank L. Moore for the cleo
tive term.
The appointive term will be but one month
The elective term will be for six years.
Frank L. Moore in one month could not do
much, in couple of years he could secure the
repeal of the Ubiquitous Borah homestead law
and give the settler chance on the vacant
lands in north Idaho. He could help Over-rule
the forest policy which works so to the benefit
of the Potlatch Lumber company. He could
help repeal the tariff lumber, by which
poor mans home is taxed for the benefit OF
the Potlatch barons, thanks to the vote Of their
former attorney Mr.. Borah and some others of
their friends He could help return to Moscow
the federal court and the big mining litigation,
which Senator Borah aided Senator Hepburn in
taking away from Moscow.
We not working for Frank l.. Moore for
the appointive term because we believe that 1t
is worth more to Latah county and to oMscow
10 have a good, clean, progressive man in the
senate as we'll as in the house than to have
only one and him in the house.
They Worked for Latah's Interests.
The necord of hard work for the state univer-
sity made by Senator Day and Representative
Morgan would entitle them to reelection in
any other county of the state because of the
benefit to the young people. How much more
should it be a factor in Latah county, and in
Moscow?

Tax Becomes a "Fee."
Things appeared to be at a deadlock
when Attorney General Wickersham con-
ceived the brilliant idea Of paying the IL
cense tax as a fee" Just what the legal
difference might be he did not explain
but he said the situation could be legally
met TN that way. Therefore the state
motor cycle license was paid by the
pathologist under strong personal protest
and was included in his expense account
and properly vised by Mr. Zappone, the
disbursing officer of the department.
But what happened to the motor cycle
in the meantime it is almost a shame to
record. The spark plug Is on the blink,
the manifold rusted through in several
places. the gasoline tank sprung a leak
and the batteries are run down. The
pathologist demanded that these defects
be made good by the state Of Rhode
Island, with the alternative of civil suit
for damages. Gov. Pothier was again
appealed to. and he again declined to in
tervene. The pathologist threatened q
suit for damages and for false imprison-
ment. He had not actually been i'm
prisoned. except while waiting in the Of
flee of the justice Of the peace.
The motor cycle has been taken out of
duress and has been repaired at private
expense, but upon whom this and the
other damages ultimately will fall has
not yet been determined.
