Poll Tax Difficulties.

The county poll tax in Jackson par.
ish, Louisiana, was raised from e6 to 8
per head by the commissioners with
the idea Of soaking the employees Of the
ule-Hodge Lumber company. II did
not work as the company shut every.
thing down and the whole force worked
out their taxes at the state scale OF
el.66 2-3 per day. The town Of Hodge
will be incorporated to shut of future
trouble Of this kind. Six years ago
Pocatello fell into the hands Of q
hungry bunch which tried to stick
the big railroad force there for cash
road tax. Although the Short Line
was busy it annulled alllbut the passen-
ger trains and closed the shops. The
1900 men then skylarked about town
for day and had fun with the city's
coils.

BROWN SHOOTS I
JAMES SNODGRASS

was discharged, the load entering
above the left groin and going through
the body, lodged just under the skin
over the point Of the right hip. A
great gaping hole was torn in the mans
flesh. through which the bowels pro-
truded, and no hope was entertained
for his recovery.
Brown did not flee. He ordered his
wife to row back home and phone for
the sheriff and a doctor, and Sheriff
Harper and DR.. Horswill responded
Immediately. When they arrived
Brown, who is q small man, much
smaller than Snodgrass, was doing
what he could to make his victim com.
Portable. He had carried water, and
was tanning him. At no time did he
show the least indication Of excitement
Snodgrass was rushed to Lewiston
but died the following morning about
$50. The body was shipped to Oro
fino on the evening train for the in
quest which is being held today.
The sympathy Of the entire commun.
ity goes out to the families Of all con.
cerned.

Il The Republican would not be mis-
understood. II is in favor Of cruising
such an area Of timber land as is neces-
sary to enable the assessor and the
board Of equalization to make fair,
honest and equitable assessment, for
timber companies should pay just as
much per dollar on their property as
the farmer or the merchant. And the
Republican, as is Commissioner Har-
rison, and every other man we have
talked with, is in favor Of an honest
cruise Of enough timber land to enable
the officials to act intelligently. This
statement is made because the Blake
gang will if their work is criticised, be-
gin to howl that they are the only
friends of the people, and that the Re-
publican is climber tool" So much
for that.
But favoring timber cruise does not
necessarily mean that the taxpayers or
a newspaper must favor waste Of
pubic funds, ,Ed the Republican is op-
posed, and does object when the county
board sends out of the county and
even out of the state for its cruisers,
and pays "a thousand dollars per town.
ship more than the work is worth.
The people Of Clearwater county
would certainly prefer to give employ
ment to men who live here, and who
pay taxes here, and who spend their
money here, in preference to outside
men, no more competent, who will
take their money out pf the county as
soon as their work is completed. Ac-
cording to Jack Harlan, who cannot be
accused Of being climber tool, there
are at least thirty competent cruisers
who are citizens of Clearwater county,
and who need the work. and that the
work could be done for eight cents per
acre, instead of IL 1-2 to be paid this
man Nease, of Portland.
Zelenka and Torgerson, unknown to
Commissioner Harrison, sneaked away
to Oregon at the expense Of Clear
water county taxpayers, and came
home just in time to give the work to
their man, who is reported to have
said two weeks ago in Portland that he
had the Clearwater county contract
clnched. And It looked that way didn' 7
it? Local cruisers could not get any
information, and were not given fair
chance at any stage Of the game, and
at no time could get any definite in
formation as to the kind of cruise

meaning the establishment here Of a
condensery, brought out the informa-
tion the farmers here now could and
would keep 37O7 cows.
The minimum average production Of
a dairy COW is said to be about ten
pounds Of milk per day. So 37O7
cows would be expected to give u
minimum milk production amounting
TO over $1,000 pounds per day. As tits
necessary to have minimum produce
ton Of 25.0OO pounds Of milk per dty
to justify the establishment Of con-
densary, it is seen that It is matter
perhaps Of comparatively short time
before there will be established here a
condensary.
The New Plymouth cheese factory is
a very busy and growing institution.
This plant is using an average Of 1000
pounds more milk psr day than II did
a year ago. The demand for the cheese
made here is greater than the supply.

Camas Prairie Chronicle, Lumber
haulers hauling to the Hussman yard
here in town have been vying with one
another Of late Is to who could haul
the biggest load. Ed. Blake held the
record for some time but on Tuesday
Henry Boeckman smashed Ill records
by bringing in 1857 feet Of rough shop
lumber at one load. Several loads Of
$3.50 to $3.50 feet had been received but
Henry's load skinned them all by over
500 feet. While we did not see the
load we are told it looked almost as
large as load Of hay. With the snow
roads almost gone, It il not likely
Henry's record will be beaten and so
far as we know this Is the largest load
OF rough lumber ever hauled to town
with four horses. The teamsters say
that SO far as pulling the load Is con-
cerned it would be easy to haul more,
but to control the load going down hill
and to keep from upsetting Is the
problem.

$4,000 Paid For Logs.

Winchester journal: The Craig
Mountain Lumber Company paid out
to the farmers Of this section during
the months Of December, January and
February over $4,000 for logs deliv-
cred at the lake and cut from the indi-
vidual's land. This amount does not
embrace the money to be paid out to
the company's contractors, but to the
farmers alone of the mountain section
tributary to the company's holdings.
This amount exceeds in value the farm
products marketed by the same indi-
viduals, otherwise than logging.
When one realizes that this is but for
portion Of season, the great bene.
fits to accrue by the operation Of large
mills is at once recognized. Surel
than grain crop is the profits Of the
timbered lands in Idaho to the home
steader.

CLEARWATER co
GREAT FOR DAIRY

"Dairying don't pay" says one. An
other says 'its too much work." and
on down the line we have here and
there the man who is afraid to make an
effort
The Republican is sure Clearwater
county is MS fine place for successful
dairying as can be found in the state OF
Idaho. The Payette valley is not bet
ter, and here is what they are doing
there:
New Plymouth, Feb. 81: There now
are 1885 dairy cows tributary to New
Plymouth, which is over three times as
many as were here two years ago.
Some time ago the New Plymouth Com.
mercial club made canvas Of the val.
ley. In answering the question, ''How
many cows will you keep next year?''
the canvas showed there will be 1901
cows kept next year. The question,
"How many cows could you profitably
keep IT conditions were favorable?'
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-02-27

Clearwater county had its first trag-
edy Wednesday night, when Maynard
Brown, Indian agent at this place, shot
and killed James Snodgrass, a young
unmarried man Of about 25. The
shooting occurred about eight o'clock
at the west end of the tunnel near the
big eddy. 1t seems that Brown suspi-
cioned that Snodgrass was intimate
with Mrs. Brown, and in some way
learned that the pair were to meet at
that time and place. The Brown home
is just across the river, and it seems
that at the appointed time Mrs. Brown
rowed across the river and met Snod-
grass. It is said that Brown, who was
secreted nearby, saw them, till he was
certain his suspicious were right, then
he faced them, and began to talk to
them, holding shotgun, loaded with
buckshot, both barrels cooked, in his
hands. 1t is said that while the men
were only few feet from each other
that Snodgrass lunged at Brown, evi-
IDENTITY trying to get possession Of the
gun, and that as he did SO one barrel

wanted. At the time Mr.. Neace ap-
peared to have a perfect understand.
ing as to what Zelenka and Torgerson
wanted, and nobody else did have. n
this deal looks square all right.
County Attorney Holsclaw was asked
for an opinion and did all he could to
prevent the board from putting the
deal over. Mr.. Holsclaw begged the
board to give local men an opportunity
to bid, and after submitting a written
opinion at the request of Zelenka, had
it ignored and the pre-arranged pro-
gram was carried out.
When the board hesitated, Pat Blake
jumped into the ring and delivered
orders. He told his -- that ii they
did not act at once he would 90 ahead
without any action by the board. That
settled it. 1t was plain to see who was
running Clearwater county.
And although Commissioner Har-
rison tried to prevent the apparent
graft, or excessive price, he voted, on
the final ballot, to cruise, which placed
him in the light of favoring the entire
proceedings, although he did nothing
of the kind. Like all the rest of the
people, Mr.. Harrison wants the cruise
made, but he does not like the way the
deal was turned. Had he voted against
the proposition as fixed up he would
have been branded as climber tool, -
and this is exactly what the gang ex-
pected he would do, and intended that
they should do. Commissioner Har-
rison believes that the work should
have been given to Clearwater county
citizens, If competent men live here,
and that the county should not pay
IL IL cents per acre il it can be done
for s ORG.
The Republican is making no charges
OF graft. 1t leaves the people to draw
their own conclusions. But let us say
this: Just as sure as there is any
graft it would come through just such q
deal as Zelenka and Torgerson pulled
off. There is at least three cents an
acre tackled on that somebody is going
to get, and Mr.. Neace may keep It.
When Moscow paved the writer wa.
offered 1-2 cents square yard If we
would use the influence Of the Star
Mirror and land the contract for Ger
tain concern. And the thing looked
fine from the outside. Looked JUS
about as harmless as the deal just pu
! over here by the Blake gang.

STATE TO BE DRY
SAY WTIISKEY FOES

This statement has been issued by
the Anti-Saloon League Of Westerville,
Ohio, and may be regarded as an Of
ficial announcement Of the purposes Of
the organization.
idaho dry in 1916"
This fis the slogan Of the prohibition
party. The edict has gone forth from
the ''dries" that fight will be made
straight down the line to elect only
those candidates who are professed
'dries."
With 21 Of the 80 counties ''dry" ,un-
der the local option law, 275, 900 OF the
1854 people of the state residing in
prohibition territory and but 200 sa-
looms remaining in business, the pro-
hibitionists are sangulne of success.
The local option law was passed in
1909. There was lthen 1000 saloons in
this state. Three Of the largest brew
cries closed down since then owing to
lack Of patronage. The following coun.

MEN WHO OPPOSE

assured that there was no violation Of
law in renting his barn for storage OF
this stuff. Nor was there anything
that could bring discredit to any man,
and the Orofino Tribune knows It. Yet
the inference is that Sampson Snyder
was bootlegging, or at least violating
the law.
Mr.. Snyder at this time hired one
Jake Miller, an ex-bartender, to paint
the barn, and permitted Miller to sleep
in the barn, wherein the saloon fixtures
and goods were stored. And Miller
stole quantity Of this stuff and used It
to mix with liquor sneaked in from
Lewiston. Scott Ogden was county at
torney, and one Of the Blake bunch,
appointed by Governor Hawley, and
it was to the home Of Blalke's county at
torney that the stolen goods were taken
and mixed into bootleg whiskey and
drank by Ogden, Miller and the gang.
Miller went into the booze businss, ped
ding his goods about town.
Ogden refused to prosecute Miller,
admitting he had helped drink the
goods and had paid for some Of the
imported, illegal booze and Miller was
never prosecuted.
And this is the case out Of which the
gang and the gang paper have made a
dirty case against man who patron
ICES paper that is not controlled or
run by Jim Blake or any Of his lick
spittles, grafters, boozers or FOUNDERS.
