for the success OF the ticket, l am,
"FLORENCE ZUMHOF."
In casting her lot with Shoshone
county Miss Zumhof forces a pc
culiar situation. AS she is a can
didate for two offices she cannot
accept The nomination for both.
However, The secretary of state
has already certified down her
name as the democratic candidate
for state superintendent of public
instruction. There appears to be
no way of getting her name Off
The ballot She could have got
ten of the ballot had she filed the
oeclination, as provided by law,
prior to the time that the certih-
cation was made or within 80 days
of the date of the general cleo
iion.
County Attorney Fox of Sho-
shone county has taken the mat
ter up with Attorney General Pc
ierson. He says in a telegram to
the attorney general Chat the
county central committee of Sho-
shone county nominated Miss
Zumhof so that she was not a
candidate at The primaries. She
accepted The Shoshone county
nomination for superintendent of
public instruction before she re-
ceiVed her certificate of nomina-
ton for the same Office ON the
democratic ticket from the secre-
lary of state.
The attorney generals depart
ment has notified County Attor-
ney Fox that Miss Zumh0f might
slill file her declination with the
secretary of state and a certified
copy with the recorder of Sho-
shone county. Then the latter
would, if he saw fit, refuse to GER

over, however, no more was ever
heard from Governor Brady on
this subject.
"Of course, il would be an ad-

tion of the Kootenai valley, but
this problem must really be work
ed out by the citizens of Idaho,
who have long needed legislation
which would allow lhen to do so.
Senator Brady never assisted in
this work, although when cover

important Litigation
Before Supreme COuEH

Litigation of unusual impOr-
tance was heard by the supreme
court during its fall term at Lew
iston last week i'm that of the
Northern Pacific Railroad COM
pany versus the county of Clear
water. The litigation involves
the assessment of the timber
lands of that road in Clearwater
county amounting to thousands Of
acres and the charge was made
That The discrimination in the as
sessment is SO gross that il
amounts to fraud. l. w. Hart
clerk of court, returned from
Lewiston last night. Chief Jus
tice Sullivan will return by Mon
day when Justice Truitt is expect
ed here from Moscow.
The Northern Pacific case was
taken under advisement by the
court where it was carried on ap-
peal from the district court. The
Railway company seeks TO have
the action of the board of COM
lnissioners Of Clearwater county
sitting as a board of equalization
reviewed in regard to the assess
ment ON its timber lands. The
railroad obtained its timber hold
ings in Clearwater county from
the government under a grant.
IL complains that the assessor
placed a valuation on its timber
lands out of all proportion to the
assessment he made on similarly
situated and in many instances
adjoining timber lands, in some
cases assessing the railroad COM
panys land 10 per cent higher
than privately owned timber
lands.

On motion, the clerk was di-
rccted to draw a warrant for one
hundred dollars in favor of Mr..

The bill Of the hydraulic en-
gineers, who Investigated the sub
ject of water supply, amounting
TO $4,000 was allowed.
Geo. Lashbrook and Dave
Ajdukoric appeared before the
council, stating that they had
built their business places on
levels furnished by the city en-
gineer; that now the buildings
were over two feet above grade,
and asking that the council lower
tLem to grade, putting them in
the same condition in regard to
water and sewer connections as
they We're at the present time.
The matter was discussed al
length City Attorney Hull said
that the first grade that he could
find any record of was establish
cd i'm 1910. That tho buildings
were built prior to that time and
that unless he could find some
other records he would have to
advise the council that the city
was not liable.
The opinion on the part of the
members Of the council seemed to
prevail that unless the city was
absolutely liable, nothing in the
vay of damages to property would
be paid as it would open up an
lendless channel for suits against
the city for damages by reason OF
changes in the grade.
They took no action upon the
matter but left it in the hands of

vesiigation.

Dandy A Careful
PainStaking Official

This county is especially for
tunate in having so careful and
painstaking official as ID. e. DAN
by the present efficient county
auditor.
Ii is universally acknowledged
that he is one of the most compe-
tent county auditors to be found
ia this state, and his Office is
pointed to as a model to be fol
lowed by other county auditors
throughout the state.
The Office of clerk of court and
eX-oilicio auditor and recorder is
the most important of all Of the
county Offices. 1t is absolutely
necessary that The incumbent
should not only. be thoroughly
competent, but he should be care
ful and painstaking to the utmost
extent. lie should be a man who
gives careful attention to every
detail no matter how small or
triiling it may appear.
Any mistake, no matter how
uiliing it might appear, is liable
TO be OF very serious consequence
to The county and to the taxpay-
ers. For these reasons when a
man has proven himself to pos
SECS all of those qualities neces-
sary to fill the Office in the most
acceptable manner he should be
continued in the place.
Efficiency and courtesy to those
who have business with the coun-
tS should be demanded and when
an officer is found possessing
these qualities to the highest ex-
tent he should be retained.
Every one having business in
this Office whether he be republi..
can, progressive, democrat, or So
cialist, admits that Mr.. Dandy
! possesses these qualities to a
marked degree.
he only fault that we have
ever heard found with him has
como from attorneys who have
been prevented from taking pa
pers from the court files and who
consider him too particular in
this respect.
An easy going clerk, who would
permit records to be removed
from his Office at the will of the
lawyers in the case would soon
have The affairs Of the court in a

ing after these matters that the

Paul Clagstone, progressive /
candidate for the United States
senate, and Hugh McElroy, candi-
date of that party for governor,
were in this city Saturday even
ing.
They came here with the inten-
ton of holding a meeting but, ow-
ing to the bad weather and the
condition Of the streets, they gave
it up.
Speaking to a representative of
the Record, Mr.. Clagstone said:
81 see Senator Brady is assum-
ing a new role, that of champion
of the submerged land settler.
This is almost on a par with his
claim Of being the great cham
pion of the Marble Greek settlers
and having secured them their
lands.
at is we'll known to every cit
izen that when Brady was gov
ernor he opposed all efforts to
have the state take other lands i'm
lieu Of The Marble Greek lands and
allow the settlers to have their
claims and it was mainly due to
his opposition that the matter was
not settled at that time.
"It is well-known fact tha
Brady, newly elected senator
and in opposition to the admins
tration, could have no influence
with Secretary Lane. It was Sec
retary Lane who gave the settlers
this land and Brady's claim that
he was responsible for it is absurd
and shows the brazen hardihood
Of the man who is ever ready to
adopt any idea he believes to be
popular with the people.
"His now posing as the cham
pion of the settler on submerged
lands is on the same plane. This
certainly is a new role for the
senator to assume as our drain
age problems have received no
attention from him in years gone
by.
'In the tenth session of the
legislature when Mr.. Brady was
governor, those of us who were
interested in this question made
an effort to amend the drainage
law by providing for some method
of financing the districts.
I'VE we're informed by the at
torney general that it would be
unconstitutional for the state or
county to guarantee the bonds, as
is the case il Nebraska and other
states; so the drainage commit
tee, which ] had appointed, drew
up and introduced a constitution
al amendment which would pro-
vide for this. The lower house
passed this unanimously, but in
tie senate it was allowed to die
i'm committee snd Governor Brady
made not the slightest effort to
assist our efforts to obtain this
legislation.
Shortly after this came on the
bitter contest between the sub
merged land settlers and the
Washington Water Power COM

tiers l went to Boise and explain
ed to Governor Brady that, even

 With Mexico.

Washington, Dec 14.-Carranza has warned the state department that he will consider firing across the border by the American troops at Naco "an act of hostility"
 This was admitted by Secretary Bryan today. The secretary of state did not furnish the press with the Iext of Carranza's message.
 Very high officers of the war ce- partment, discussing the Carranza statement today, expressed the opin ion that in view of the warning, fir . ing across the border by General Bliss troops would mean "a state of war between the United States and Mexico"
 In his note to Secretary Bryan, Car ranza is understood to have piedged himself to do all he can to end the conditions of which the state deparc- ment has complained, but distinctly and firmly reserves to the Mexican government all rights and authority to act upon these conditions. Any in- terference by the United States will be considered hostile.
 MT. Bryan said nothing new had been determined on and that his prev ions announcements covered the sitG- ation. " sS
 Secretary of War Garrison said nc new orders had been issued to Gen, eral Bliss. The secretary said the general was to await orders.

snow-Proof Boots.

Members of arctic expeditions have found that gum boots are not proof against the entrance of moisture fo. snow water seems to penetrate the rubber where the boots are ir more or less constant use for long period of time. This is prevented by an oc- casional application of shellac. which efrectually keeps the moisture out, even when subjected to the hardest wear. Shellac can also be made use of to advantage in coating the tbongs of snow shoes for the purpose of re- sisting thu moisture when moving over the wet snow. The shoes thus treated enable the men to make much better headway over the snow with less ef' fort. The thongs which have been treated with shellac are also said to dry out quicker after use than tthers
