WHAT LEGISLATURE HAS DONE

The special session of the Idaho
legislature adjourned Wednesday
evening having enacted revenue bills
such as they could agree upon, and
had them vetoed by Governor Haw-
ley. After each veto they would raj
ly and try again to get together on
something that would meet the gov
ernor's approval, and on Wednesday
a bill which he is said to have agreed
to sign, was passed by both houses.
The charge of playing politics has
been made on both sides, and not
without some foundation. It is also
charged that the governor broke faith
with the Legislators in the matter of
just what he would sign, and with
sixty-some bills on our desk and in
complete information as to the his
tory of them, and not knowing wheth-
err the governor will sign according
to the latest agreement, we find it
a good time to hold our peace and
take another week to study the mat
ter and to publish whatever receives
the governors signature. 1t is safe
to say that nothing more than tenn
porary relief has been afforded, and
that at, a very dear price to tax
payers.

FIRE DRILL AT SCHOOLS

On Wednesday afternoon there was
a fire drill at the Irving and Central
schools. At the Central school, the
larger building, it took just As Sec
onds from the time the alarm was
turned on until the building was
emptied. At the Irving school it took
20 seconds.
When the gong begins to clatter
the teachers go to the door and take
a look to see if there is fire in the
avenues of escape, and if there is
none the pupils file out by the u.s.
ual routes; should any hall be
blocked with fire and smoke, the pu-
pills who lead the lines would be d.
rected as to what other routes to
take.
In Wednesdays drill the folks at
Irving school seemed to know that it
was a drill and not a fire, but at
the other building they came out like
they were trotting for life, and most
of them seemed surprised at seeing no
fire and at being ordered right back
into the building. Then they laughed
at themselves when they found how
they had slammed their books and
tablets down when they cut loose
to beat it.

NEWSPAPER WENT TO THE WALL

The Pocatello Herald went to the
wall last Friday after a short and IN
ey entful career. About twenty at
tachments are said to have been
filed against the plant.
This makes two printing plants
that are tied up in Pocatello now in
the hands of the sheriff or the cred
itors, and it makes about the forty
leventh newspaper failure in Pocatel-
10 in five years.
Most of the failures were due to
loose methods in business, coupled
with the failure of patrons to pay
their bills promptly. There are a lot
of people who never think it is i'm
portant to pay a subscription bill I'M
til it is more than five dollars, and
it is when a lot of subscription ac-
counts get up to the five dollar mark
that the load becomes too heavy for
the publisher to carry and the sher-
if takes the plant.
The management of this paper
sized up the situation and went to
the cash basis two years ago. Dur
ing the time it has been doing some
credit business in other lines, and
the annual inventory of January LIST
1912, showed $2772 on the books,
with liabilities amounting to $199.
1t is our purpose to spend part of
that. $2772 collecting the other part,
and if it is necessary to do a smaller
volume of business to keep clear of
the credit business we will do it.

Chairman w. c. Pickett of the zoo

the deal by wire picking up what

Mr. Pickett:
The best thing about the deal is
that we got Lillian delivered in the
park warranted in perfect physical
condition, for sum representing half
what we would have to pay if we went
bear hunting in the New York animal
shops, and transportation is what costs
when you handle animals"
Charter Pullman, Says Carey.
Well, l should say" quoth Manager
Carey, who has bought animals until
he is qualified for job with Hagen
beck. THE cheapest way to move an
animal from New York to Atlanta is
to charter Pullman car. buy a first
class ticket and let him ride South in
style. / never tried to keep a camel

'em through the country and give shows
