TURKEY ADVOCATES TREATY

Turkey has abrogated all treaties
and conventions between herself and
the powers of the world which con-
ferred special privileges upon for
eign nations. These treaties restrict
ed the sovereignty of Turkey and
gave the United States and other
powers special privileges and immuni-
ties. On the rights conferred by these
treaties rested the legal status of
American missionaries in Turkey per-
hitting them to maintain hospitals,
churches and schools. This action
means the removal of every kind of
privilege in excess of what the prin-
riples of international law allow.

The anti-saloon league put one over

conventions. 1t is claimed by these
vets that Mr. Herwig practically dis
franchised them by making it impos-
sible for them to express their views
on the question. These independents
as they call themselves can see moth

in the field. Already steps have been
taken in Canyon and other counties.

Taxes are Reduced.

The state board Of equalization paid
little attention to the Recommended
tons made by the state tax commits
sion when it was in session. Farm
values reduced instead of raised
railroad valuations remained the same
instead of suffering an increase of 49,
100000. This however is incidentally,
The board decided that the state
needed 100000 to meet its running
expenses during the year 1915. The
general ad valorem tax rate was fixed
at two and eleven hundredths mills
which is reduction of thirty
seventies of mill over 1913 and sew
eral counties will not pay as much
money as they did last year.
1t also came to light that there were
$390,OO0 on hand to pay interest and
public building endowment tax and
leyies. This is the balance that still
remains from the Hawley administra-
ton. Governor Hawley went tenn
porarily nuts on the cash valuation
idea and in consequence extracted
from the taxpayers hundreds OF
thousands of dollars more than was
needed. The money raised for some
funds could not be spent by the last
Democratic administration and so il
remains in the state treasury. The
additional money was raised for gen
eral expenses was snugly and safely
disposed of by Governor Hawley. Al
any rate it is all gone now.
