IDAHO PRODUCTS TOTAL NEAR
LY $25, 100000.

In the interest of Idaho manufac-
tories list has just been prepared
showing the large number of articles
made in this state, and although Ida
has not been rated as an Industrial
state, it shows the aggregate value
of manufactured products last year
amounted to nearly $4,000, 900.
Eleven thousand employees of Idaho
factories received last year $1,000
0O0in salaries, while the sum of 1872,
100000 is permanently invested in
manufacturing enterprises. This
takes account only of the straight
manufacturing concerns and does
not take into account the scores of
smaller repair concerns.
According to the list which has
been prepared and which is not yet
entirely complete in every detail,
manufactures in this state cover a
surprisingly large variety. The ulti-
mate consumer may buy anything
from a grain harvesting machine to
a shoe button, made in Idaho.

YOU'LL NEVER KNOW

The legislature killed certain ap-
preparation bills, including an item
to pay for the publication in pam
phlet form of brief statement of
what measures were enacted at the
twelfth session. These were intend
ed for free distribution among the
people so we might know what they
did. AS it is we don't know whether
to eat or drink in the usual way or
not. We might be violating SOME
new statute or provision of the pure
food law. People don't know what be-
come of the Koelsch marriage bill un-
til they find lawyer and wait UNI
til he can get his new codes, and
in the meantime love might
grow cold. There's a lot of things
you might wish to do that may belle
gal today and they may not.
After all, the law is getting to be
a joke anyhow. Nobody but law
yer knows what he may do and what
he may not, and even then, the SUI
preme court might change its nina
as to what constitutes law, and you
are taking a chance if you do and
you are taking chance II you don't.
You'll never know just what the
Twelfth Session did while it was per-
forming.

STATE DEVELOPMENT BONDS.
The Richfield Recorder.

The proposition that the state loan
$4,000 from the Carey Act fund for
the rehabilitation of the King Hill
project, is a fine suggestion of what
the state might do on a rational de-
velopment plan. In this case, the
state already has the money on de-
post; and since the fund is express
ly for the development of irrigation,
and the security is ample and the
need so great, it is easy to see the
states duty and profit in putting this
worthy project on its feet To make
it success where it has been a dis
aster would be worth to the state
several times the face of the loan,
even if none of it were ever repaid.
The last legislature, but for mix
up in it's plan of action, was going to
vote to issue bonds for $4,000, al
most every dollar for non-productive
investments, such as state school
buildings; and had a narrow escape
from another three-quarters of a mil
lion for the state Capital, also nom
producer and taX-eater. More than
a million dollars of the same general
class of bonds was issued two years
ago; there are barely enough divid-
end-paying development bonds in
both issues, like those for necessary
bridges, to keep the whole mess from
utter extravaganza. These extrava
gance-and-luxury bonds sell for a
fraction above per cent 1t is the
opinion of good financiers that good
Idaho industrial bond, for things that
would Pay Dividends should sell for
very close to per cent-and that an
issue of twenty-five million dollars
would sell as readily as for one-ten-
tn that sum. There is vast differ
ence between bonds for luxury or for
profitable Development; just as most
conservative banks refuse to loan a
dollar for any one to purchase auto
mobiles, though they are ready to
loan to the same men for real bust
ness.
The state might issue and sell these
bonds direct; or the national govern
ment might underwrite them. with |
the state lands for security; with this
national guarantee, the interest rate
might be cut to per cent. To build
roads, bridges, irrigation and drain
age works, railroads, power plants
an open river to the sea, and other
such projects that would really de-
velop Idaho would be real construc-
tive craftsmanship. And the annual
interest for a $25, 000,O 900 loan would
be only $3.50 per capita, while it
would bring wages and opportunity
to every one in the state
To do this would require constit-
utional amendment. Just now. the
state is financially stagnant, It would
be a potent remedy to call a special
session Of the legislature, in time to
pass such an amendment to submit to
voters at the next general election.
Lay out the plan for an expert, nom
partisan engineeriils and Investment
board; shccSr-She people exactly how
.s..@@sSyork was to be carried on for
their good-and that would vote for
It and would rise up to call this adj
ministration blessed.
