The Herald is going to say
some things that you will not
relish; also, it will not do a par
ticle OF good at present, maybe
never. Our only excuse for say
ing them is that they are true.
The legislature is a co ordinate
part OF the state government.
So far as taxation is concerned,
it is the most important part,
1t makes the appropriations for
the conduct OF the government,
and provides the methods by
which the money shall be raised.
No dollar OF taxes can be levied
without the sanction of this
branch OF thegovernment. When
you talk OF your taxes, remem-
that.
And the legislature. as com
posed and elected in Idaho, is a
Joke. 1t has been u joke for sew
eral seasons, 1t will continue to
be a joke while the direct primary
lasts.
How many OF you, business
men OF Canyon county, would
select the present men who repre-
sent tho county in the legisla-
ture or expend two and a half
million dollars for you out OF
your own pocket, and tell you
how and where it should be spent
Just simply hand it over to
them, without any strings at
tached?
Some OF you might select one
OF them under those conditions;
none OF you would select two;
we wouldn't choose any.
And the personal OF the Cam
yon county members In the pres
ent legislature, il far above that
of recent sessions, aud above the
leverage in this session; and IL is
a darned sight better than the
advocates of a direct primary
deserve. II il didn't hit the bal
lance OF us we would shout
"Three rousing cheers
Yet these Canyon county mem.
bers, who, as we say, are far
above the average. are the men
20 whom you have entrusted the
work OF levying and collecting
millions OF dollars from your
pockets and OF providing how
and where they shall be expend.

less other millions; looking after

$500 Piano is First
Prize in Voting Contest
Local Merchants Inaugurate New Plan to Encour-
age Buying at Home-Oferng Several Smaller
Prizes-Enter Contest Now.

Several merchants of Rathdrum
have joined in inaugurating
a Popular Voting Contest in
order to demonstrate to the people
the benefit to be derived from
buying at home for cash rather
than trading away from home or
sending their money to the mail
order houses. They are giving
away absolutely free a number of
prizes, the capital prize being an
elegant Obermeyer & Sons piano.
They can undoubtedly afford to
do so. 1t is estimated there are
hundreds of dollars going from
this community to the mail houses
each week, to the detriment of the
purchasers, to the home merchant
who ought to receive the trade,
and the community in general.
They have inaugurated this
"Popular Contest" believing that
they can and do sell goods at a
smaller average selling cost and
net profit than can or do the mer-
chants in the larger cities and
towns. Merchants ask theil
neighbors and friends to co oper
ate with them during this "Popu.
lar Voting Contest" by giving full
patronage to our own home town
They ask this, fully believing tina
it is best for all concerned.
There will be no favoritisn
shown in this grand distribution o
prizes. Just who will receive th'
various prizes will be determined
by vote. The lady who receive
the largest number of votes vii
receive the first prize, and other
will receive prizes according t
their final vote standing until a
the prizes are awarded.
The person having the secon
largest number of votes will b
given the choice of the merchant
prizes, the third contestant secon

shall be open, fair and above boarc

Town Board
Has Meeting
Routine Business. Board Resolu-
tiOn.---Bills Paid.

Nothing more than routine busi
ness was transacted, at the meet
ing of the village trustees Monday
night. The street work and
matters concerning the water
system were talked over. The
marshal reported malicious mis-
chief perpetrated in the park in
Guiding cutting away ropes on the
swings, the identity of the culprits
being unknown.
The following resolution re-
ceived by tie clerk from the state
board of health was read:
whereas. 1t is the belief OF the
State Board OF Health after investl-
gatlon that dangerous contamination
OF water supplies results and that
often typhoid fever follows the present
practice OF many towns Of dumping
untreated sewage into the streams
and lakes OF the state and the dump
ing OF sewage into crevlces in the lava
rock, it is urgently recommended to
the governing boards OF the towns
and villages OF the state that this
system be abolished and septic tanks
| be installed TO treat the sewage be-
I fore it is dumped into the streams or
lava crevice. Very truly yours, Ralph
Falk, M. D, secretary"
Whether or not this resolution
applied to local conditions was
discussed and it was the opinion
of members that in compliance
with it no refuse should be dumped
in the creek which flows through
town and that the sawdust being
piled close to Spring branch should
not be permitted to contaminatt
the water supply.
