troduced to provide that justice courts
shall fix a time for trial of cases
brought before them, not less than two
or more than five days after the date
fixed in the summons for the appear
ance of the defendant or the time by
the court allowed the defendants in

and game department with fish and
game commission to administer it, is
proposed by House Bill No. 35, intro
duced by Kriger of Kootenai and

feated in the senate.

tricts-north, southwest and southeast

marriage relatives within the third de-
gree of relationship. Any official
guilty of such an offense is made liable
to a fine of from 5000 to $1,000.
Consolidate Two Offices.
To be in line with the republican
platform, and not because the governor
advocated it, is the reason given by
Senator Rockwell for the introduction
of senate bill No. IA, which would con
solidate the office of state bank com
missioner with that of state insurance
commissioner, making the state bank
commissioner ex-offici) insurance com
missioner. The bill was referred to
the commission on banks and banking

on every point raised on appeal.

Bonds and Substitutes.

A plan to indebt the state with six
per cent twenty-five year bonds to
create a ten million dollar road fund
is not meeting with the rapid progress
that its sponsore would like. There is
not much weight to arguments against
good roads; farmers, manufacturers
and merchants are equally benefited
by their construction. But the ques-
ton takes on new significance when
the proposition is presented of heav-
lily bonding the state for the very de-
sirable Improvement, and the hesita-
ton manifested in some quarters is
perhaps very natural. The idea Is
worthy of the greatest consideration
the voters are able to give it; in fact
they might profit by waiting until
Multnomaff county has thoroughly
tested the merits of the bonding sys-
TEN. by which large sum was recent
ly made available for the hard sur
facing of her roads.
The state of Washington, taking the
lead in road development work, is
executing a plan whereby the interest
bugaboo on bonds is avoided, and at
the same time good roads are con-
stantly being built in all parts Of the
state. Each legislature appropriates
