Creighton Meeting with Favor.


Many papers in the county have
commented favorably upon Frank
Crighton's attitude in the present
campaign for the nomination as one
of the representatives to represent
Canyon county in the legislature at
the next session. Payette will give
him a good vote and in doing Sc the
voters will be placing the.r stamp
of approval upon a man competent
in every respect to successfully re-
present them. He has been honor
ed With municipal affice IN Payette
time and again and wherever brought
forth in that capacity has always
made good. He IL not a one idea
man hut Is fully abreast Of the
times on all subjects. His success
as a business man warrants that
he will handle the business of the
people with as much care and con-
sideration as he has lis own. His
residence here of twenty three years
gives him ample insight into I'll
conditions in the state Hn9 county
to enable hIa g act and v9te i9-
{sIllgSht.y 9n Al questions, A vote
fer him is surely enc for a careful
eoenemic sessten Of the legislature SO
far as he is concerned and his ab.!i-
ty is such that If nominated and ele-
cted he will certainly be one of the
members of that body who will have
something TO say and some weight
behind him.

AS TO VALUATIONS.
Assessment Valuations Do Not Agree
With Selling Prices.

Some one with pardonable curios-
ity to see how valuations for assess
ments would agree with valuations for
sale has been looking up the prop
critics recently voted upon for school
sites. 1t was found that while the
aggregate amount of all the prop
critics was $175,000 the valuations for
assessments on the same properties
was $68,200, an average of about
thirty-eight per cent. In one case,
however, the property was assessed
for eighty per cent. of the price asked.
(The owner was a non-resident)
1t is fair to say that in the case
of one tract voted upon the owners
did not care to sell and placed high
price upon their properties for that
reason as a removal would involve
great inconvenience and expense.
1t does not follow that when site
is selected that the school authori-
ties must of necessity pay the price
named in the resolution as all read
mot to exceed" etc. The price will
be a matter of negotiation and il il
is regarded as unreasonably high
condemnation proceedings may be re
sorted to.

mo my friends, the majority cannot
be depended upon. And for this rea-
son, we find in our constitution pro-
vision for the protection of the rights
of individuals and minorities. Wheth
er the majority rules or not, depends
upon what the rule is,-whether it is
right or wrong If it is the wish
of the majority to sweep away the
checks and balances of the constitu-
ton, should the will of the majority
prevail?"
'If 1t is the wish of the majority
to drag poor, helpless culprit from
his prison pen and burn him in the
public square, should mob rule have
the right of way? If it is the wish
of the majority to overthrow our fl
nancial system and fly in the face
of the civilized world, should that act
of reputation be countenanced? Why.
if might makes right there is no
need of law. If public opinion Is the
court of final appeal, no need of
juries and judges. From IAN address

WARNING FROM AUTO HEAD.
Complaints of MuffIer Nuisance to
Motor Department Bring Results.

State Motor Vehicle Commissioner
Job H. Lippincott is receiving many
complaints from citizens all over the
state who are annoyed late at night
by the misuse of the muffler on auto
mobiles. The people seem to real
ize more than the autoists that "de-
vices known as 'muffler cut-outs' shall
not be used within the limits of any
city, town or borough, or within two
hundred feet of any horse-drawn We
hicle on the public highway" and
they intend that this amendment to
the automobile law shall be enforced.
1t is in effect now and has been since
April End last, and the penalty for
disregarding it are similar to those
Tor violation of other provisions of
the automobile law.
The policy of the state department
is not to order arrest on first com
plant, but ON the second one. These
letters receive prompt attention. The
offender, if he is described, gets
warning not to repeat the offense,
and the second time he is dealt with.
Mr.. Lippincott sends to each man
this quotation from the law and tells
him he must SO equip his car:
Every motor vehicle shall have and
every motor vehicle shall use devices
to prevent excessive noise, annoying
smoke and the escape of gas and
steam, as well as the falling out of
embers or residue from the fuel. and
all exhaust pipes carrying exhaust
gases from the engine shall be di-
rected parallel to the ground or
slightly upward" He then follows it
up with the paragraph quoted above
about the use of the muffler and its
abuse.

VERDICT FOR TROLLEY VICTIM.
Supreme Court Sustains Verdict OBJ
tanned in Morris Circuit.

tained IN Morris Circuit.
The Supreme court has sustained
as not being excessive a verdict of
$1,000 obtained in the Morris circuit
by julius Trussell, administrative of
Richard F. Trussell, against the Nor
ris County Traction company.
While riding on trolley car on
the way from Dover to the ball
grounds, between that town and Rock
away, Trussell was thrown from the
car and killed. The accident happen
ed while the car was rounding a
sharp curve at a speed of about
twenty miles an hour
At the first trial a non-suit was
granted upon the ground that because
Trussell was riding ON the step of
the platform of the car he was
guilty of contributory negligence and
hence barred from recovery.
In setting aside this non-suit the
court of errors and appeals laid down
the rules that it is not negligence in
itself for a passenger to ride on the
step of car.
The court held that a passenger
who voluntarily rides on the platform
steps when there is room inside as
sumes the risk, but when the car Is
full the court said, a different situa-
tion is presented, and a question for
the jury is properly presented.
