Few citizens of Idaho have been
more in the public eye of late years
than Captain F.. G. Davis. An Incl
dent of recent happening has again
served to focus public attention up
on this active citizen. We refer to
his recent appearance in the Supreme
court IN an action to campel the pay
ment of an inheritance tax to the
state of Idaho from the HERMAN es-
tate. This action was initiated by
captain Davis when he was Assistant
Attorney General, and he made the
principal argument in the case which
was argued in the Supreme Court
last week, on appeal from the pro-
bate court in Ada county. The case
was taken under advisement bv the
court, and is likely to go to the SUI
preme Court of the United State,

Permission to Operate Would

Washington, May 15.-The applica-
ton of the Pennsylvania, New York
Central, Lehigh Valley and other rail-
roads to retain ownership and con-
tinue operation of boat lines on the
great lakes, despite the prohibition in
the Panama act, was denied today by
the interstate commerce commission.
All the railroads applying must give
up their boats lines by December 1,
1915.
This is the first case involving ex-
tensive steamship properties under the
new law which has been decided
against the railroads. The commits
sion held that none of the lake line
services maintained by the petitioning
railroads is being operated in the in
terest of the public or is of advantage
to the convenience or commerce of
the people, within the meaning of the
Panama canal act, and that permits
sion to allow their operation by rail-
roads will prevent, exclude and re-
duce competition on the great lakes"
The decision is regarded as of great
Importance to all the ports on the
lakes which are reached both by boat
and railway lines. The fact they
are reached by those agencies of
transportation, the commission says,
establishes a case of competition ex-
listing between the owning railroad and

At the German embassy it was
