In the history OF legislatures OF this
state Many meritorious measures fell
Victims to the determination OF the house
Of representatives to reduce taxation.
For the first time In many days the
house Was able to point to clean cal
enGar after II had finished its work.
The S750,000 bond issue for the COM
pletion Of the wings Of the handsome
new state capitol building OF this state
was the first to receive the fatal stroke
of the ak. without debate and over the
protests OF It's authors the Ada county
delegation, the bill was indefinitely
postponed The $4,000 bond Issue to as.
the Cello canal, giving to Idaho an open
waterway To the sea, was killed. The
SIS, 900 appropria uon for the Northwest

fell victims to the indefinite postpone

committee Of the whole through the ef-
forts OF Representative Bowerman, who
led the attack on It. The committee
recommended that tho bill be postponed
indefinitely and the house adopted the
report.
Governor Haines announced to the leg
islature ne had attached his signature
to the Jefferson and Madison county d.
vision bills. which passed both houses.
Both bills create new counties out Of
Fremont county At the same time the
house went on record as In favor Of Pay

The bond bills providing for improve
ments for the state institutions were not
killed. but were set aside TO be consid-
cred In the committee OF the whole at
later date. Many OF them will suffer
from the legislative AK 1t is now freely
predicted.
In message TO the legislature, Gov
ernor Haines recommended that sitting
committees be appointed to sift the 400
odd bills now before the legislature in
an attempt TO have passed at least the
administrative measures. The state af-
fairs committee adopted the suggestion
and authorized the speaker to make the
appointments. Representative Shattuck
of Bonneville county secured the passage
OF his alien bill. repeating sections OF the
statute TO permit aliens to hold property.
The bill was passed with other meas
ures OF minor Importance.

POCATELLO, Ida, Feb. ia num-
Der Of the prominent business men of
the city met last night and formulated
plans for fighting the proposal to adopt
the commission form OF government In
Pocatello, The work was placed under
committees In the different wards. as
follows. First ward. ]. b Bistline and
a, r Higson; Second ward. J; II: Town
send and w. j. Harvey; Third ward
George North and Frank Caldwell;
Fourth ward, William Mccarthy and
George Smith.
The plan is to begin active campaign
ing at once as the time for the special
election Is only a week from next Tues
day The argument is advanced that the
towns OF Utah, especially Salt Lake City
and Ogden, have never been satisfied
with their system Of government; that
the Black law Of Idaho is inefficient and
Indefinite. and that Boise. operating un-
der that law, Is very desirous of maxi
ing a change. The anti-commissionists
fear also that the recall privilege. will be
misused. Over twenty OF the heaviest
taxpayers in the city have signed an
open letter of protest to the people at
large. speaking against the proposed
change.

EPHRAIM. Feb. 1S.-Much interest is
being manifested by the farmers In this
vicinity over the proposed erection OF a
pea canning factory. II is estimated that
il will take about 1000 acres OF peas TO
keep the factory running and those who
are promoting the proposition are conf
dent that the desired acreage can be Sc
cured,
Some out-of-town capital has been Of
fered for the erection OF the factory, but
1t is the consensus OF opinion here that
the Industry should be owned locally. II
is probable that a stock company will be
formed here and the stock marketed
largely among business men and farmers
Of this vicinity. Representatives OF con-
Germs which manufacture canning ma
chnery have been looking over the local
situation and have been greatly encour-
aged by the farmers.
