MAR|P0SA COMES
 FROM THE SOUTH
Left Seattle With 177 Passengers Will Sail for the South To-
 morrow Morning.

The steamer Mariposa, in command of Captain Charles O'Brien, reached Valdez at 10 o'clock last night with a dozen passengers for this port The steamer left Seattle with 177 passen- gers for Ketchikan, Juneau, Skag- way, Cordova, Valdez and Seward, in dicating that the travel back to Alas ka has commenced in earnest
 Steward Teddy Taylor, as usual, treated his passengers so well that they hated to leave the ship. But then Teddy does that all the time and the oldtimers are getting used to it. It was not always thus on the steam CTS coming to Alaska.
 In spite of the large number of pas sengers they were well cared for on the ship, as the 22 new two-berth rooms built this winter when the ship was overhauled, has provided plenty of berth accommodation
 The Mariposa brought 75 tons of freight for Valdez, 20 tons for Fort Liscum, and also a shipment for the Ellamar mine. The steamer sailed west at midnight and is expected to reach Valdez early in the morning.

PERSONAL TAX ROLL
IS FAR Beyond
EXPECTATION

OF the total charges against Can
yon county by the state of Idaho
amounting to $6918, nearly one-half
has already been forwarded by Treas
urer Monk and Auditor Stovel. Tues
day $3o,968 was sent to the state
treasurer, which amount is the amount
of state taxes collected up to January
5. The balance will be RENTED from
time to time as the taxes are collected
but final settlement will not be made
until july The classification of the
remittance made is as follows: public
building and endowment fund, $3977;
interest and sinking fund, $5294; gen
eral fund, $27,967.
The county exceeded the expecta-
tons of the state tax commission and
the state auditors department Fri
day when it reported its personal
property abstract with grand total
of $2,628. 764 This county will be next
to Ada in returning a big total in this
classification. There is now no ques-
ton but that the grand total from the
personal property abstracts of the 81
counties required to report will reach
$25,0OO,000. 1t is expected that all of
the reports will be in within few
days and the grand total of assessed
valuation in the state can then be de-
finitely compiled.
The following figures are taken

FRENCH FOR THE SENATE.

All doubt of Congressman French
being a candidate for the United
States senate was removed Tuesday
when Mr.. French made his formal
announcement. At present there are
three avowed candidates in the field
and it is generally understood that
Juge Ailshie will make an announce
ment of his candidacy in the near flu
ture The formal announcement of
Congressman French is as follows;
81 have decided to become a candi-
date for United States senator from
Idaho this year,
II have withheld making any an
nouncement until present. because |
desired to hear from all sections of
the state before doing so. Member
ship in the senate affords far greater
opportunity for public service than
does membership in the house and l
would not be a candidate if | did
not frankly admit that it is one OF
the greatest ambitions of my life to
be elected to membership in that body
from Idaho"
The announcement of Congressman
French is not a surprise. 1t has been
expected since last winter when by
his actions during the session OF the
legislature he made it impossible to
elect Judge Ailshie.
The Tribune had about reconciled
itself to Mr.. French in the House OF
Representatives We trust that we
will not have to reconcile ourself to
him in the Senate.

c. P. HARTLEY BRINGS SUIT
FOR PAYMENT FOR TREES
Counter Claim by One-Second Says
Trees Were Not Up to Contract

Charles 2. Hartley. the Emmett
nurseryman, was plaintiff in two cases
tried in probate court Friday before
Judge Harger, both of which were
brought for the collection of bills al
legged due him for nursery stock sold.
The cases attracted considerable at
tention from nurserymen of this sec
ton, several of whom were summon
ed for witnesses
One claim was against Frank L..
Brown, of Nampa, for $9l10, he bal
ance claimed on a bill for $191l0
worth of trees delivered in. May, 1912.
A peculiar feature of the case was
the filing of a counter claim by the
defendant for damages of $4675.
Brown contended that Hartley sold
the nursery stock under the usual
guaranty, but that out OF total of
27l6 planted owing to their poor
condition, 935 trees died. By reason
of the loss of the trees, the loss of a
years growth on part of his orchard,
together with the expense of planting
and cultivation, Brown claims he was
damaged to the extent of $4675
The court struck out the counter
claim as being beyond the jurisdic-
ton of the probate court, tried the
original case and defendant not ap-
pearing. rendered judgment in favor
of Hartley for SOLO with interest
and costs of the trial
The other suit was against the
Caldwell Nursery company to collect
a balance of $4S due on bill of sol
for nursery stock. The defense
claimed that the stock delivered by
Hartley did not comply with the CON
tract in size and quality and was also
mislabeled, Judge Harger took the
matter under Amusement.
Decision was rendered in favor of
the Caldwell Nursery Co.

The two factions of the Democratic
party are trying to harmonic. The
plan contemplates the withdrawal OF
both Hawley and Nugent from the
race for the United States Senate.
The result will be a compromise can
didate in the person of Hon. Frank
Marin, former attorney general of the
state and member of the old Steu-
nenberg faction. Mr.. Martin attract
ed considerable attention to himself
when attorney geneal by the stand he
took toward the pardon of Diamond
held" Jack Davis. Governor Hunt,
Secretary of State Jules Bassatt and
Attorney General Martin comprised
the board of pardon. The first two
were prevailed upon to grant the par
don in spite of the opposition of the
attorney general. 1t is said that Mr..
Martin stands very high in the esti-
nation of both factions of the Demo-
cratic party. Of late years he has
devoted himself exclusively to his
profession. While interested he has
not been active in politics although
mentioned from time to time for high
positions of honor and trust.
At this time The Tribune is unable
to state with what success the plan
has met. Mr.. Nugent has been at
Salt Lake for some time on private
business and so our informant is I'M
able to give the exact status of the
negotiations but feels coniiden. that
something will be accomplished. We
trust that leaders of the Democracy
will be able to agree. "The rule of
the people" is mighty fine, and dirct
primaries are fine stuff but neither
should be allowed to interfere with
the leaders nor with harmony.

BATES FOR CONGRESS.

A rumor highly credited in Cald-
we'll, Boise and other political cen
tiers is to the effect that Hon. M. A..
Bates, editor of the Parma Herald
and one of the warehouses; of Demo-
cracy. will soon announce himself for
Congress. Mr.. Bates does not take
kindly to the candidacy of Hon. Dow
@Dunning, as he is fearful that if Mr..
Dunning is sent to Congress he will
devote his entire time and energies
to the PRONUNCIATION of the single
tax theory of Henry GEORGE and fail
to do anything for Idaho and the DEM
ocratic party. Unless another pre-
sents himself to oppose Mr.. Dunning
in this section of the state, Mr.. Bates
will offer himself.
M. A. Bates is a Canyon county
man. He is a Democrat today, was
a Democrat yesterday and will be a
Democrat for all time to come. He
is a man of considerable native abil-
ity; genial in company; and fearless
in the expression of his views
Idaho might, and probably will, do
much worse by sending someone else.
So far as The Tribune is concerned,
if Democrat is to be sent to Con-
gress, we would like to see both
Bates and Dunning sent. They would
make first rate Democratic members
of Congress. Dunning could devote
his time to the single tax. Bates
could oppose him. Between the two
nothing would be done which is a
consummation devoutedly to be wish
ed from Democratic Congressman and
Democratic congresses. We hope all
the states are as fortunate as Idaho
promises tn be

PRODUCE 76 BUSHELS
OF CORN TO THE ACRE

T. M. Nichol, acting for the
Caldwell Corn Club, this week
awarded the prizes for the best
acre of corn. r. M White of
Franklin received the first prize
with a yield of 70 bushels per
acre. Metcalf & Nicholas of
Midway received the second
prize with yield of 70 bushels
per acre. In explanation we
would say that Messrs. Metcalf
& Nicholas failed to get their
report to the club in time and the
first prize was awarded before
hearing from them.
The yield of 70 bushels per
acre admits of no question. The
land was measured and the yield
ascertained by disinterested par
ties. 1t sets a new mark for
corn yield in the west at least if
not in the entire country and
demonstrates that Idaho is a
corn state.
