FIREMEN ACCUSE BIG BUSINESS
OF TRICKERY IN TRUST PRESS
The Firemen's Association of Chi
cago, which has a membership
composed of over two-thirds of the
fire department, has come out with
the accusation that the Illinois Man
ufacturers' association and the big
fire insurance companies have used
the power of their influence to silence
the trust press on the double platoon
system.
While a few of the papers have
contented themselves with merely
using the muffler on giving any real
news of the double platoon system to
the public, others, such as The Daily
News and Herald, have openly dis
torted the news so as to spread the
impression that the firemen are
against the proposition.
The firemen charge that not only
have the manufacturers and insur-
ance men been using their power
with the press, but they have stood
the expense of the advertising cam
paign against the new plan.
The rank and file of the depart
ment also say the bosses organiza-
ton, known as the Helmet Club, have
resorted to unfair tactics to kill the
double platoon.
One of the pet stunts has been to
circulate the report that the men
were opposed to it because it would
mean loss of furlough and loss of pay
while sick.
The firemen are showing at all
meetings that the new plan would in
no way affect their time off or their
furloughs.
Union labor, headed by Pres. John
Fitzpatrick of the Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor and others, are out
campaigning strong for the fremen.

view, the system of continuous duty
must be absolutely condemned as out
of keeping with modern civilization.
There can be no reasonable defense
of a system that divorces the hus-
band and father from the wife and
children for days at a time; that
compels a man to abuse his stomach
245 DAYS a year; that deprives him OF
the privilege of divine worship and OF
the opportunity of social intercourse
with his fellow men. 1t makes phys
ical wrecks of the picked men OF the
community. 1t has broken up hun
dreds of homes and has been the
cause of more firemen's children go
ing astray than any other class of
people in the various other occupa-
lions of life, statement which can
be positively proven. Under the two
platoon system fremen would aver
age IL hours duty day, $50 days
wear. During those II hours they
would not be absent from duty for
anv cause except sickness. There
would be no absence for meal leaves,
thus saving about half million dol
lars to the city and greatly promoting
the efficiency of the department.
"The day shift would do 10 hours
dutv and the night shift IA hours.
Once a week they would swing and
the then night shift would do the 1O-hour
tnrn and the day shift would do the
14-hour turn, thus allowing a 2O-hour
off once every six days. The fremen
would sleep at home, eat his break
fast and supper at home, and carry
his lunch with him to the fire house.
He would be doing as all workingmen
do. He would still have long hours,
his occupation would still be dan
gerous one and he would not live as
long as men in other occupations of
life But he would be living more
nearly normal existence than now.
Fourteen hours would make long

Idaho county arguing for county divi-
sion is concerned. It fails entirely to
tit, for the taxes In all the new counties,
so far as heard from. are higher than
IN Idaho county. Lewis county, one OF
the very best counties In the state
made a levy this year OF $3.50 on the
500, and Clearwater County, another
OF the new counties. has levied $2.bO
on the 500. while Idaho oounty's levy
is s1.40. ranking down among the low
est rates In the state There Is no
call for criticism of the manner in
which Idaho county is conducted, as
Ii shown when its running expenses are
compared with the other counties; and
1t is radically wrong to try to poison
the public mind In the matter, by in
sinuating things which are absolutely
untrue. The Globe dishkes to engage
In controversies of this character. but
when public officials who are striving
to administer the affairs of their offi-
ces and OF the county. fairly and hon.
orabay. are attacked and their motives
and acts misrepresented. 1t Is right that
the taxpayers and the general public
should know the facts in the case.

LOWERING WATER PIPES BELOW
FROST LINE.

The Grangevilie Light 4 Water com
pany is now working a good force OF
men placing the water pipes below the
frost line. This does not include the
larger water mains. but the smaller
aaterals, with which ahe company had
such serious trouble last winter. Aft
or the pipes were laid many OF the
streets in the city were graded under
the impetus Of the better roads re-
vival and the water conductors were
In some instances left almost exposed
Last winter was an unusually severe
winter and the fall OF snow was ex-
ceptionany light. and the two taken
together worked havoc with the shall
low pipes. there being at times whole
neigftborhoods in which there would be
but one or two places where water
could be secured. Those freeze -ups
worked great hardships upon the wa
der users and also upon the company
which worked night and day in an ef-
fort to thaw out the pipes and restore
things TO their normal conditions. 1t
Is proposed ITO forestall such an occur
renee this winter by gdbting the pipes
beyond the reach OF frost.

RAISES GOOD CORN.

J. q. Gregg showed the writer some
Yellow Flint corn last Saturday that
he had brought in to feed his horses
at noon, that was as sound ana Wen
set as any of the old Missouri product'
Mr.. Gregg says 1t Is all foohshness TO
claim that good corn cannot be grown
on Camas prairie, and people should
quit knocking the country, which Is the
best for all purposes on earth, and get
busy doing things." That Is certainly
the right sentiment. There Is no douot
but that as good corn ensilage can be
raised here as anywhere II acclimateo

coming to the front, you win seescorn

idaho County Tax Rate Among Lowest
In the SKATE. /
The raise In the county taxes this
year requires no explanation to one
familiar with the new law under which
the board OF commissioners are COM
PEELED to run the county business. As
stated albove. the last legislature pass
ed law forbidding the commissioners
to Issue deficiency warrants" and ma
king them personally responsible for
county Indebtedness contracted under
such conditions Two years ago thene
were over $4,000 Of deficiency war
rants outstanding in the county, some
OF these running back for years. The
legislature of two years ago passed
law requiring the county commission
ers to levy am annual tax sufficient to
htAfsO oP al iAOaeAhH AhQ0DlOuucSn III
the county. The county board figured
on extending the time for liquidating
this Indebtedness over a period of
three years, thus making the annual
burden as hight on the taxpayers ais
possible. But the law enacted at the
last legislature forced them to take
this Indebtedness up Immediately, and
they had to make raise In the tax
levy sufficiently large to cover the
case.
The Cottonwood Chronicle undertakes
to capitalize the increase IN the taxes
into county division sentiment, as Is
its custom with everything that takes
place at the county seat, whether found
ed on fact or not Instead OF offering
its readers the true solution OF the
case. to which they are certainly en-
titled, 1t hands out the following mis-
leading insinuation:
..Taxes win he 40 per cent high
er In Idaho county this year than
they were last year. although our
county has not yet been divided
and, according to the contentious
of the anti -divisioniets we cannot
see any other reason for the in
crease. Added to lthds the state
levy Is five cents lower than last
year and the county levy should
have been less rather than more
than last year. However. the
ways OF the county fathers are in
scrutable and we know not wheth-
er to charge up the increase in
the taxes against the war over in
Europe or the county division fight
expense account. Figure 1t out for
| yourself, dear reader. but in the
meantime better forego some of
those pleasure trips and contemplat-
ed improvements in your home and
save the money to pay the extra
/ taxes"

Mr. Fred G. Painter. OF whitebird.
was In Grangeville last Saturday in
consultation with Atty. Gilmore In ref
erence to the sale of the old Hawley
place near Whdebird, at which tine
bids were opened and Mr.. Frank Hogan
found to be the highest ibidder. While
Mr.. Painter, as administrator. has ac-
cepted Mr.. Hogan's bid, under the law
the sale can not be completed until
confirmed by the probate court, which
will be on the 25th, and should any
person submit a bid in a sum ten per
cent higher, at any time before the
sale is confirmed, the court will direct
the sale to be made to the party maxi
ing such bid.
The HawIey place rs perhaps one OF
the finest places in the Whitebird sec

and upon which the tax levy of $1.4O
upon the 500 valuation was based. the

These figures have been unfairly used
