Syrup Mislabeled.

The government condemned 210
cases of syrup at Lewiston last week.
In an information fled in the federal
court. the district attorney claimed
that the Pacific Coast company had
violated the pure food law. 1t
charged that the 2l0 cases Of canned
syrup were misbranded, that the
labels did not truthfully state the
amount Of adulteration the syrup
contained.
The label which the governmen,
objects to says that the syrup con.
tained "A per cent sugar cane syruI
and 26 per cent corn syrup. Test.
made by government experts show
that the syrup actually contained 81
per cent of glucose and that it wa!
merely a mixture Of sugar cane syrul
and the glucose.

IMPROVE WATER SYSTEM
Village Board Places Order
For Iron Pipe.
TO REPLACE WOODEN MAINS
Other Business Transacted Monday
Night.

As the result Of action taken at
the regular meeting Monday night
the board Of village trustees has
ordered about SI2oo worth of iron
pipe to replace all, or nearly all,
the wooden mains of the water
system. The order placed with
Fairbanks Morse company,
through their agent, F. L. Lee,
calls for 5000 feet OF 4.inch black
pipe, 300 feet of 2-inch galvanized
pipe, 800 feet of I-inch galvanized
pipe and 800 feet of 3.4-inch gall
vanized pipe. 1t is the intention
OF the board to begin on the work
as soon as the new pipe is received
and a suitable man can be en-
ployed to take charge of crew of
men.
The clerk was instructed to
write to the state sanitary inspec-
tor asking him to look into the
conditions on Spring Branch creek
relative to the alleged pollution Of
the water supply by reason of a
stable and barnyard located on the
creek. The clerk was also ordered
to notify a party living opposite
the N. P. depot to abate nuisance
consisting of stable or barn OF
which complaint had been made.
Trustee ]. W. Smith was author
lied to have the streets and alleys
cleaned.
Chairman Poleson was author.
lied to look after the drafting OF
an ordinance fixing the charges for
water throughout town according
to size and number of hydrants
maintained or used by each patron.
It is the opinion of the board that
such an ordinance is needed under
which the persons using two
hydrants will be required to pay
more than those who use one
hydrant, and the persons who use
large hydrants or service pipes
than those using small ones.
Bills allowed were:

take up his work in Kootenai, Bonner

The three tax commissioners
divided the state into three districts
and Mr.. Ramstedt was assigned
northern Idaho.
"My ideas of fixing taxation and
the methods OF doing it are to simpli-
fy the laws and assess all property at
its actual value, which. in ITSELF"
said Mr.. Ramstedt, "would practically
classify the different kinds of pro-
perty. The purpose Of the special
session OF the legislature 10 providing

State Press Comment.
The Presidential Nomination.

The Presidential Nomination.
On the sixteenth OF next month
Idaho will choose her delegates to the
National Republican Convention.
We are not among those republicans
who 6nd 10 President Taft an ogre,
who threatens to dev0ur the last
vestiRe OF American freedom. The
worst objection to President Taft's
candidacy lies In the action of the
men who are supporting him, aud
that action has, In many states, been
wholly indefensible. They have
played the machines against the
people and in most cases haye won.
Few people question the fact that the
rank and file of the republican party
is for SO called "progressive'' candi-
/ date. or these, Roosevelt Is easily
hrst choice 10 Idaho Many counties
have. however, selected delegates
directly through their central COM
mittees with the result that the
people have had no opportunity to
express themselves. 1t has not es.
capped general observation. that in q
majority OF such cases, these delegates
are supposed to stand for Taft, while
in a majority OF cases where the
people have spoken, their delegates
will support Roosevelt. As 10 a
thousand other conventions, the re.
suits may depend upon the Hnal
action Of those weakened brethren
who totter along with the crowd
which seems to possess the greatest
strength. This talk Of excepting in
line" with the fellow who IS going to
win, is just one despicable phase OF
the eternal question of compromise.
So far as we are concerned, we don't
care whether we stand with the
crowd that Is going to win or not.
We intend to stand as nearly as we
can according to our convictions and
according to what we believe to be
the convictions Of the republican
voters Of Idaho. Post.

The Fair Grounds.

Speaking OF the trip OF the Idaho
commission to San Francisco to
select a site for the Idaho building
for the Panama Pacific exposition
to be held in 1915, Governor Haw-
ley says:
"The fair grounds themselves
are the lower portion of the Pre-
sidio and a portion Of the city to
the south which has been acquired
on a lease by the exposition. The
grounds will embrace about 6oo
acres and extend for considerable
distance around the bay. A fine
boulevard is to be built around the
/ bay. Our building site runs back
from the boulevard 200 feet and
we have a beautiful view OF the
entire harbor and we are well pro-
tected from the winds. We were
fortunate enough to he on the
corner also as the side street run
ming from the boulevard westerly
through the exposition grounds IS
directly to the north Of us. Mon
tana selected the site Immediately
| across the street, which, next to
ours, is the best Site in my Judg-
ment on the grounds. Wasii,pg-
ton and Utah are directly behind
US"

Wants q Safe Man.

Kooskia Mountaineer: Byron Def
enbach, of Standpoint. is stirring up
quite a following 10 the republican
ranks and is sure to enter the primary
election as candidate for the nomi.
nation for governor. 1t appears that
Mr.. Defenbach in the past has en-
gendered the ill.will of the big timber
concerns and the principal opposition
to bis candidacy comes from this
source. 1t behooyes the republicans
to be careful. A man who Is known
to favor the timber syndicates is not
a safe man to place in the governors
chair and the party that nominates
him IN this year of our Lord will re.
gret It. The fight on Defenbach by
State Auditor Taylor ard the timber
syndicates speak we'll for The Sand
point man.

Roosevelt Wins Illinois.

Colonel Roosevelt won Illinois 10
the presidential preference primary
election held in that state Tuesday.
Returns Indicated that his vote over
Taft was 5 to 2. Clark won the
democratic primary over Wilson.
Senator Dixon, manager OF the
Roosevelt campaign now predicts the
nomination of the colonel is assured,
and adds: ''Wherever legitimate pri-
mary expression has been bad the
republican voters have utterly re.
undated Taft, and no republican
leader can longer doubt that an at
tempt to force Taft's renominatiou
under these circumstances would be

While in prison Gordon invented a
stump puller designed so that the
leverage of the falling tree is uti-
lized to pull the stump from the
ground.
Otto L. Jensen, sentenced to
to IA years, Oct. II, 1911, for
forgery committed in Fremont

The remainder was scattered among
Democrats and Republicans generally.

EVERETT BLACK ACQUITTED
Evidence Showed He Killed Whit
ing in Self-Defense,


On Thursday night last week the
Jury in the district court at Occur
d'Alene acquitted Everett Black of
the charge of numbering William
Whiting at Harrison. Black is said
to be but Is years old and Whiting
20. Blacks plea was self.defeDse.
After his release he returned with his
parents to his home at Carlin Bay.
The following brief story of the
case is taken from The Journal:
Black had gone to Harrison from
Carlln Bay to visit his uncle and
incidentally went to the hall with an
acquaintance to play basket ball.
Here he met and had trouble with
Whiting who elected him from the
hall, and insisted afterward on having
fight with him.
On their way home after the game
was over, Whiting said "Come on up
to my room and fight it out" Black
refused and declared that he would
not fight any place except on the
tramway at Grants mill, which place
was where his uncle worked. A little
farther on he was cornered by Whit
ing and told that there they would
fight, and Black said that he was
blocked 10 an effort to 60 around him
and continue on. his way and was
called vile, provoking names. Whit
ing's challenge at his room and his
oaths directed at Black were not
denied by the states witnesses.
Blacks testimony was very favora-
BILE to himself. He told the story OF
the killing in plain logical manner

The supreme court at Lewiston has
reversed the decision OF the Kootenai
county district court 10 the case Of
| William Wilson ct al, respondents,
versus Anthony Linden ct al. The
case 10 the lower court was decided
In favor Of Wilson and this action
sought to quiet title to 100 acres in
volving $24, 900. The will was not
satisfactory to Edna Linden, one Of
the appellants, relative to this land
and she prayed for quieting the title.
Ira Barbour appeared for the appel
lants and J. e. Dickery and Cavauah
& Blake for the respondents. Judge
Ailshie wrote the opinion.
The state supreme court has
affirmed the decision Of the Kootenai
county court In the case OF the Apos-
tolic Holiness union Of Post Falls
versus Herman Knudson and the
Pentecostal Church OF the Nazarene
Of Post Falls. This case came before
the court to quiet title on land
donated by the appellant, Knndson,
to the respondents, for the purpose of
constructing church upon it. After
Knuds0n had given the respondents
the land there was separation of the
members and Knudson, among the
dissenters comprising the Nazarene
church, took possession of the pro-
perty. The court held that despite
the fact that Knudson was the
original owner of this land, compris.
Ing about an acre, he forfeited title
when he separated himself from the
Apostolic Holiness union.

ATTITUDE OF DEFENBACH
Standpoint Man States Position on
Political Matters.

Byron Defenbach of Standpoint,
who is expected to become the
north Idaho republican candidate
for governor, in a recent letter
published in the Oro6no Tribune,
concerning the political situation,
says in part:
"People generally are very much
in favor of the primary system, and
attempts to evade the law will be
frowned upon. Nevertheless, the
voter will be influenced to great
extent by the same considerations
that move conventions, he will con-
slider geography and home support
of the candidates as we'll as their
personality and platforms.
"Over and above all these things,
however, the people will resent
corporation activity in the primar-
les and the election. The people
OF Idaho are not antagonistic to
capital, but they will not longer
tolerate some Of capitals policies
in this state. We are beginning
% discriminate between policies of
development and those Of mere
speculation and devastation.
Legitimate industry, whether it be
Of the farmer, the millowner, the
miner or the railroad, should be
fostered and encouraged; these are
the things that make two blades of
grass grow where one grew before.
But the combinations that acquire
and hoard vast areas of land for
purely speculative purposes until
their holdings become valuable
through the struggles Of others,
are hardly entitled to special privi-
leges. When to these pernicious
policies they add the practice Of
tax-evasion and the maintaining OF
lobbies at the state capital to in
/. huence the enactment and admins
. tration OF law, they become a
tremendous menace to the growth,
prosperity and civic welfare Of the
state.
II have written enough to give
| you an idea of my attitude on pub
lie questions; this attitude elected
me to a county Office in the face of
determined opposition. Is there
a demand for an exponent Of these
principles in the larger forum OF
state politics2 Or do the people
prefer some weak tool who will
generalize about ECONOMY, effici-
ency" and a lot Of other indefinite
propositions which will not inter-
fere with anyone and cannot be
attacked or criticized"
