The fight for county division
commenced the latter part of last
December when the matter was
taken up by the Kootenai Valley
commercial club. The county
division bill was introduced in the
house of representatives by E. f.
Elliott, who, by the aid of Senator
Defenbach, former State Auditor
S. D. Taylor, George R. Gray, A,
J. Kent and w. P. Mahoney, Sc
cured its passage by large major
ity.
AS result of the fight on the
county division question northern
Bonner county is more at outs
with Standpoint than ever and
prominent citizens of Bonners
Ferry and vicinity have announced
that they intend to continue work
ing until their hopes of county
government which cannot be hand
led by Standpoint is realized.
The Evening Capital News of
Boise of March 4th gives the follow
ing account of the fight made in
the senate on the Boundary county
bill
Before the measure succumbed =,
Defenbach put up a determined
fight for its life. Opening the dis
cussion when the bill was made a
special order for consideration in
the committee of the whole the
Bonner county senator, with the
aid of a huge map, discoursed on
the merits of the proposed divi-
sion at some length. He quoted
the valuations of the two counties
and showed where Bonner county
would be left total assessed valu-
alton in taxable property of over
$18, 100000 and where the new
county was taking only valuation
of less than 81 100000. He spoke
of the great area of the present
county and declared that the people
of the proposed new county were
overwhelmingly in favor of its
creation.
He said that out of a total oil
1919 votes cast for governor at the
last election, but five opposed the
division. He referred to the great
number of kilograms he had
received asking for division not
from the proposed new county
alone but from Bonner as we'll.
After Defenbach had finished
his address. Hanson of Shoshons
moved that Lieutenant Governor
Taylor be given the floor in behal1
of anti-division. This permission
was granted and the senate's pre-
siding officer proceeded to hi.
argument against division.
Taylor declared that many of tn,
kilograms and petitioners asking
for division were not persons il
whom confidence could. be placed
He referred particularly to lettel
from a man whom he named anC
whom he said signed himself a
mayor of Newport. " This tow

consequently has no mayor declared
Taylor. The man who sign:
himself as mayor is the owner of
number of disreputable houses
there, he SAID.
After Taylor had concluded
Defenbach spoke in rebuttal. HI

Profits In Waste PAPER.

The sale OF waste paper used to af.
ford perqulsltes for government Off
cials. When John McCulloch ,of Die
tionary OF Commerce fame, was np-
pointed comptroller OF the stationery
Office in 1871. he discovered that the
proceeds from the sale OF government
waste paper were divided among his
subordinates. who thus more than
doubled their official incomes. The
new comptroller prohibited this prac'
tice on the ground that all moneys de-
rived from such sales belonged TO the
exchequcr. Some OF the officials dis.
regarded this prohibition and contln.
ued TO sell waste paper and pocket the
proceeds. when this came TO the ears
OF McCulloch they were prosecuted for
systematic appropriation OF public
property" For many years past the
stationery Office has made over 10000
year from the sale OF waste paper
