AN ANCIENT RELIC.
Moscow Man Has Squirrel Gun that
Shoots True as
Any

In the line of old relics j. A. Sud
derth has something that he considers
a rare prize. 1t is an old Kentucky
squirrel gun that claims origin in the
early fifties. 1t was won by Mr.. Sud-
derth's grandfather more than go years
ago at shooting match in Georgia and
was at that time about the last word
in gun inventions.
The gun was, until recently, in the
possession of an uncle of Mr.. Sudde IN
living in Brown county, Texas. its
stock is of walnut and extends under
meath the barrel clear to the muzzle
This stock extension is inlaid with sill
yer and presents number OF care
fully designed silver trimmings and or
lamentations. The gun is about five
and one half feet in length, but reason-
ably libgt and we'll balanced. 1t is
hand made and was, in it's day, one Of
the most expensive rafles on the M
het. 1t shoots specially moulded
ball of about 80 calibre, and its ac-
curacy Is said to be as true as that
of more modern rifles.

No Foreign Pope.

At the present time the sacred col
lege consists of 27 foreign cardinals
and 80 Italians. While this gives the
latter a little majority, the margin Is
regarded generally as being too mar
row to insure against the election OF
a foreign pope. For this reason tie
coming consistory, it was learned to-
day, will result in a substantial in
crease in this majority.
In addition to announcing the crea-
tion of Mendes Bello, patriarch at Lis
bon, whose name has been held in
pectore since November 1911, the pore
will include in the list of new Italian
cardinal, it is understood, Morsignor
Della Chiesa, archbishop of Bologna;
Monsignor Tonti, recalled some two
years ago as papal nunzio to Portu-
gal; Monsignor Ceppetelli, former
vice regent of the vicar general o.
Rome, as well as one or two of the
personal chamberlains of the pope.

ter General Burleson's much discussed
changes in the parcel post regulations
became effective today. Hereafter the
limit weight of parcels for deliv,,y

been the case since the inauguration
of the system. Moreover, from now
on, the postage rate on parcels ex-
ceeding four ounces is to be five cents
for the first pound and one cent for
each additional pound or fraction
One other change which cannot be
made use of until cold weather is that
fresh meats anr other perishable ar
ticles, when inclosed and wrapped as
may be mailed to offices in
both first and second zones. Hereto.
fore they were mailed only in one
zone. If the changes result iii the
profit expected, Postmaster Burleson
intends to reduce rates and increase
he weight limit next year.

TIMBER COMPANY
SECURES ABSTRACT
GET COPY OF INJUNCTION PRO-
CESS FROM COUNTY
AUDITOR.
Indications Now Point to Issue Of La
tab Tax Rolls Going to Supreme
Court,

From present indications the mat
ter of the authority of the state tax
commissioners to order the submis-
sion of county assessment rolls to the
state board of equalization at the
capital is yet far from settled, and
it is thought that a termination of
the controversy will likely come in a
supreme court decision in the near flu
ture.
Yesterday afternoon the auditors
Office at the request of the Latah
County Title & Abstract company pre-
pared certified copy of the injunction
Homer E. Estes was restrained from
taking the assessment rolls to Boise.
This COPY was taken to Boise last
night by Roscoe Balch, a representa-
tive of the Potlatch Lumber com
pany. Another certified copy was re-
uuested this morning by Attorney
James e. Babb of Lewiston This
copy also is presumably for the use
of the Potlatch company in further
settlement Of the controversy.
The supreme court of the state is
now in session at Boise and the ques-
ton may be submitted to this tribunal
for a decision in the matter.

PEACE REIGNS SUPREME
Striking Painters Differences at Var
sity was Merely Misunderstanding.

What was reported the first of the
week to >have been a general strike
on the part of the students employed
in painting and carpenter work on
the campus appears to have blown
over and the roofs and walls continue
to take on brighter hue. A few
workmen dropped their brushes and
went to the mines but they did so it
seems because they desired a change
in work.
The "cut in wages" which was re,
ported to have caused the strike ap-
pears to have been merely a misun-
derstanding on the part of the su-
dents themselves and for the most
part their differences were peaceful
Iy adjusted. The students, it seems,
had been promised 80 cents per hour
for painting but had understood that
they were getting 35 cents.

stead Must Now be Made on Blanks
Furnished by the Department.

Homesteads absentees must hereaf-
ter service notice of their rabsence

located upon blanks furnished by the
department for that purpose, hereafter,
according to word received in Mos
COW.
Heretofore, entrymen desiring to
leave their entries have forwarded in
NAL notice to the register and re-
ceiver, and upon their return to their
entries have forwarded a like informal
notice of such return, but hereafter,
such notices must be made upon the

Absence from the land for one con-

STATE BOARD
NOW EQUALIzING
GAIN is SHOWN IN
WEALTH OF IDAHO.
Increase In Value this Year Means a
Drop In the Tax Levy and Saving
TO People.

| BOISE, Aug. 15.-(SpeciaD - The
state board of equalization is in SEES
sion here this week to equalize taxes
| of 33 counties, railroads and public
utilities, and to establish the state rate
| to raise revenue. 1t is believed by
members of the board who have he
viewed reports from various counties
that the ultimate rate will be but half
of that of year ago.
Idaho will show a material increase
this year in it's total assessed property.
The total will be close to $450,000, 900,
as compared with $418, S0,394.28 last
year. The increase will be in the rail
road and public utility assessment and
personal property.
Last year the total assessments were:
Real property, 1881 1925, S,S42.2S; rail
roads, $84, 4,5O6,573; Pullman and private
car companies, $361,924; telephone
lines, 81 O,59910; telegraph lines, 81,
152,455.90. Last year the basis Of as
sessment was 40 per cent of the full
cash value. This year property will be
assessed at it's full cash value.
1t is now estimated that the board
will add at least s50,000,000 assessable
to the tax roll this year.
Counties that have reported their
abstracts show total personal proper
ty valuation of $276,231 $40. When the
balance of the counties file their alb
stracts the total in this class will be
increased to 1922, 100000.

PREPARING NOW
FOR SUCCESSOR
AGED PONTIFF PAVING THE WAY
FOR ANOTHER
ITALIAN
Fear OF Foreign Pope Being Elected
In Case of Death Results In
Preparations.

ROME, Aug. 15.-Possibility of the
election of foreign pontiff to succeed
Pope Plus, in the event of his death,
is to be eliminated as far as is possi-
Bile at the coming consistory for the
elevation of new cardinals. Although
the date set for this calling together
of the members of the sacred college
has not Yet been announced, prepara-
tions are steadily under way. Should
the pope feel at any time that his
health might suddenly grow worse,
the consistory will be summoned i'm
mediately. Otherwise, it may not be
held until October in order to spare
the aged Pontiff the fatiguing labor it
would involve during the hot season.
Pope Has Consented.
From high Vatican dignitaries il
was learned today that Pope Plus has
consented to take the advice of a ma
jority of his councillors and remove the
possibility of the election by the sacred
college of a successor other than an
Italian. His Holiness, twas declared
today has been convinced that such a
would be most unfortun-
ate at the present time.
Pope Plus has dedicated his entire
pontlflcate to the establishment OF
great religious reforms inside the
church. We're he to be followed im-
by a foreign pontiff, he is
said to have been convinced that che
church would be plunged into politi-
:al entanglements that would probably
'esult in his religious reforms being
orgotten before they would have time |
o become permanently established. |
t is better, he is said to believe, that
he church postpone the solving of its |
POLITICAL questions until it has strong
y entrenched the recent religious re-
orms.
