Make Idaho More Prosperous
State Treasurer Allen Visits RichfeId and Outlines
Plan to Develop idaho Resources State Bonds
to Furnish Cheap Industrial Money.

cial moves ever made in the state.
He believes so strongly in the is
sue of state bonds for improvement
purposes, that he tried to induce
some of the political leaders in the
last legislature to introduce a meas
ure authorizing vote on this as
a constitutional amendment. But
what with their senatorial and coun-
ty seat and school fights. they did
not do it. His idea was what the
Recorder has been ding-donging in
to the ears of its readers for a
long time past-for the state to is
sue bonds in a large sum, and use
the money to buy the district bonds
in the state In this way, the state
would sell it's own bonds for about
a 1-2 per cent, and would buy the
district bonds for about 5 1-2 or
per cent, the difference in per cent
taking care of all the cost of handl-
ing the loans, and letting each dis
trict in this way pay the entire cost
of its own business, with no cost to
the state. This does away with all
the objection from parts Of the
state that do not directly profit
through the loan Of money for de-
velcping local enterprises.
Mr. Allen is going deeply into the
problem of land banks, such as are
working so successfully in Germany
France and other countries Of CONT
Mental Europe, he believes the time
will soon be here for the institution
Of such banks in ,1daho-if indeed
it is not here already.

A most interesting case is to come up
in the district court at Shoshone this
week, beginning Friday, wherein the
Shoshone school district seeks to com
pei the county commissioners to annex
to the Shoshone district the IS miles of
main line of the o. S. L. left unattach-
ed to any school district by the recent
county division.
The commissioners figured that it was
a fair division to cut this rich territory,
which pays taxes on a valuation of
little above 81, 200, 900, into three
almost equal parts, giving one each to
Shoshone, Richfeld and Jerome The
three have apparently almost identical
grounds to ask or to receive this added
territory. After the boards first re-
fusal to give it all the territory, and
before the board actually made any div
ision, the Shoshone school board start
ed suit to compel the annexation of the
WIOiS beiIiLCty stO bAtli N49N-A~es ANN
case comes up before Judge Walters.
A comparison Of the tax rolls of the
three districts shows some instructive
figures. Jerome has the largest tax
roll, about 81, 75O, OOO, and the largest
number of school children. Shoshone
has 81 500, 900, and 272 children. Rich
field has S811, 600 in valuation, and 1913
school children. The per capita valua-
ton is about the same. The apportion-
ment of property, however, is striking
ly different. Shoshone has 81 per cent
of her valuation in railroad and other
corporation property, 16 per cent in
farm lands, and 81 per cent in Sho-
shone town property. Rich6eld has %
per cent in corporation valuations, "a
per cent in town property, and 4S Ter
cent in farm lands. Jerome has about
15 per cent in town property, only q per
cent in corporation property, and all
the rest in farms. IF Shoshons should
get this additional 81, 100000 in corpor-
alton value, it will make her corpor-

PUT IN PASTURES.
Gooding Farmers Point the Way
to Dairy Success.

Manager Blake of the Consolidated
Wagon and Machine Co. of Gooding,
was in Richfield one day this week. He
says that his company sold full car of
grass seed at Goodng- clover and the
pasture grasses other than alfalfa--and
that others probably sold as much, so
that enough seed has been sold there to
sow close to 1000 acres. This acreage
of hay and pasture land insures the
dairy business, and the hundreds of fine
cows that are being brought in there

HOUSE MOOSE AGAINST
BURY|NG THE RATCHET
II Republicans AmaIgamate,
They Must Give Up Party En-
bIem, Say ProgreSSiveS.
From The Tribune Buresu.l

Washington. May 2s.-The Bull Moose
members OF the House rejected to-day all
suggestions for an amalgamation Of the
Republican and Progressive parties, vot-
ing. in effect, that If there was to be
"get-together" the Republicans must
Weld their party emblem and come over
to the Progressives body and baggage
The third termers met ostensibly to ap-
portion certain committee assignments
among the members Of the second minor
ity party. Mr. Murdoch read off the list
Of assignments, it was promptly approved
and the meeting then developed into an
anti-amalgamation affair.
Representative Hinebough offered a res
olution attesting to the "permanency' Of
the Progressive party and hereby ex-
tending 10 progressive men and women or
all parties a sincere invitation 20 join the
Progressive party which. unallied now and
forever with anything reactionary, stands
for social and Industrial Justice etc.
Mr.. Chandler, Of New York, struck
the only discordant note in the violent
protests against amalgamation. He said
ne believed the Bull Moosers thought too
much of their party name and he pre-
dicted that sooner or later there would
be an amalgamation between the two
parties and that the rank and file would
accomplish Il without regard 10 what
the House members might say Mr..
Chandler wasn't so sure, however, that
the amalgamated rank and file would be
a stickler for any particular name.
This statement nettled Mr. Murdoch
and other Progressives who wanted TO
know II Chandler had run as Bull
Moose.
IL ran as a Progressive. | bear that
name. and will continue to do So said
Mr.. Chandler. but | think there is an

gard to the non-essentials. | am an

try on a name.
