Want Fair Assessments.

The contention is made that if the
assessor maintains the same ratio of
value in the cities and towns of the
county that he is at present carrying
in the country that the cities and
schools will be unable with the pres
ent fixed levies to raise sufficient rev.
enue to meet their wants and re-
quirements.
1t is also suggested that if the val
ues are maintained in the cities and
villages as they were last year enabl-
ing them to raise the necessary reven-
ues, that the assessment would then
be out of proportion to that of coun-
try property which would mean that
cities and villages would have to bear
a larger proportion of the expense
of state and county government.
The visit of Mr.. Robertson at this
time is to make investigation and to
confer with the county assessor with
a view of urging that nothing but a
equitable assessment be
made on all property, city and county

TIMBER LAND FOR
FORESTRY SCHOOL
FRENCH HAS IN
TRODUCED BILL SETTING
ASIDE LAND.
Seeks $4,000 Acres Reserved in Idaho
To Help University in It's For
estry Work.

WASHINGTON, Mar. 5.-Represen-
tative Burton l.. French has introduced
a bill looking to the granting of $4,000
acres of land to the forestry depart
ment of the University of Idaho, the
same to constitute an endowment OF
the forestry department to the insti-
tuition. Mr.. French says:
Nearly one-third of the state OF
Idaho is included within a forest re-
serve. The state itself is vitally in
terested in the forestry question. The
forestry department OF the university
is doing most valuable work in the
way of devising the highest use of the
timber and timber products of the
and the preservation and
of waste by-products in pro-
fitable manner. The state has expend-
ed thousands of dollars for the support
of this branch of the university and
regards the money as well spent.
"In view of the great interest that
the government has in forestry work
the ownership of SO large an
area of forest lands within the state,
believe the government ought to bear
lot less than the amount suggested in |
ny bill looking to the maintenance of
he department.

This Years InterschOlastic Meet
Best Ever Held Here.

Already plans are being made at
the university for the annual inter-
scholastic track meet which is to be
held in Moscow on May II, and it was

The last two years meets have been
eminently successful, each bringing
more than 100 high school students
to Moscow and affording them an op-
to become acquainted with
the university's work. This years
contest is expected to attract almost
200 high school athletes. Detail ar
for the entertainment of
the participants will be worked out by
a special committee and the meet will
be given wide publicity.

Figures We're Given.

According to the figures of Engineer
Smith the total square yards of paw
ing amounts to 1854 of which A.
891 is street intersections and 5S,S03
will be assessable direct to abutting
property. Based on an estimate of
1925 square yard the total max
imum cost is estimated at S165,810
which includes grading, curbs, sewer
and paving. The bond issue would
be for $33,504 and the assessable sum
would be $132,3O6. According to the
plan of the council the work is to be
done during a period of two or three
years, bonds to draw interest only as
the work is completed. The follow
ing is the estimate of square yards in
the following districts:
Asbury, 2806; University, 6174;
Jackson, Almond and A streets, 1878;
North Main, S776; Sixth street, $685.
First street, $780, Sunnyside, 7772;

Mayor Clarke and members of the

districts for which petitions have been
filed, and will then reach a decision
as to what property should be includ.
ed in the several districts under con-

reached last evening following
meeting of the council in which prop
perty owners were present, having
been invited to express their views on
the future paving plans. OF the
eight different petitions presented,
there was practically no objection to
the plans as originally outlined with
the exception of the objection of two
property owners in Sunnyside addi-

owners on Howard streets and also
on East Third. 1t is believed that

THE BOSTON MASSACRE.

> THE BOSTON MASSACRE.
A military force under General
Gage occupied Boston, owing to
the existing unpleasantness be-
tween the Port Of Boston and
the English. They were quar-
tered on the citizens Of the city,
and the people resented their
presence. Hard feeling ran high
between the redcoats and the
people of the city, but the first
real outbreak occurred on Mar. .
5, 1870, when a crowd was first .
fired upon by the soldiers, who
killed three and wounded eight. !
This conflict became known as .
the "BostOn Massacre" and had .
much influence in heightening
the feeling against England.

A Historical Event.

But. up to the palace, on the morn
ing of February s, marched a crowd
of soldiers. headed by Gen. Reyes
and Felix Diaz. Diaz had corrupted
a part of the army and it had gone
with him to seize the palace. Thous
ands of Mexican citizens filled the
great park opposite the palace, as Diaz
and Reyes marched UP to the portals
they were onlookers of historical
event, and, in truth, one of the bloodi-
est events of Mexican history. Out
of the portals of the palace issued
band of soldiers. Diaz and Reyes ex-
pected them to yield up the palace;
that had been the plan. But somehow
the plan went awry. From the gate
ways came a burst of bullets. From
the roof of the palace came a deluge
of machine gun fire. A bullet went
Reyes forehead. Soldiers fell
by the scores. But, worst of all, the
onlookers in the park were caught by
the rain of death. They fell in heaps
and mounds dead and dying, men,
women and children. like people in
a theatre fire panic they rushed from
the park, seeking the side streets, but
the bullets moved them down. Again,
in the terrible history of Mexico, dy-
nasty was fighting for its life and
what mattered the lives of a thousand
or more onlookers? A thousand of
hem fell under the palms and eucalyp-
us trees in the park. Only the dark
iges show more terrible sights than
hat. And what is to be sad of the
lours that followed on that Sunday
morning, when the wounded lay
screaming in the sun? When physi-
ians who passed among them were
wounded and killed? Or.
# the next two days, when the dead
we're piled in mounds and burned ar

ured and the escaping gas was lighted
nd converted into a Goth century

laced to be consumed by the gas
ames? The fire from the palace
rove Diaz back. Many of his men de-
erted. His band hurried into side
