DEEP SEA LIFE.
Why 1t Cannot Exist Much Below che
Four Mile Level.

Four Mile Level.
In the American Magazine Cleveland
Moffett describes the discoveries made
by scientists who aboard the steamer
Albatross fish all over the globe at
depth of three or four miles and bring
up specimens for museums. DIR. Aus
tin H. Clark of the Washington Ma
tional museum, was the scientist In
charge of this interesting vessel during
one of her recent cruises in the Pacific.
In the following extract taken from
his article Mr.. Moffett reports a con-
, versation that he had, with DIR. Clark:
81 inquired how far down in the
ocean life is found, and the scientist re,
piled that while soundings have been
taken to depth of six miles no traces
of life have been found much below the
four mile level, and oceanographers be-
lleve that at the bottom of the great
ocean abyss, say at the FIVE or six mile
levels, no life exists or can exist.
Because of the immense pressure?"
mo, because of the lack Of food.
You might think that food would sink
to the bottom, since some of the deep
est areas are near the shores, notably
north of the West Indies, east Of ia
pan, south Of Newfoundland and, Deep
est Of all, east of the island of Guam.
Undoubtedly there Is an abundant food
supply on the surface Of the ocean at
these points, yet none Of 1t in sinking
will reach the bottom for the reason
that whatever is not devoured on its
way down by creatures Of the sea will
be dissolved In the lower levels, where
the solubility Of water is greatly IN
creased, owing to the increased press
ure. Not only is it believed that prac-
tically all animal and vegetable matter
is dissolved at depth of FIVE or six
miles, but the softer bones of animals
are probably dissolved, leaving only
the very hardest ones to reach the bot
tom. Thus the trawl nets bring up
from great depth sharks teeth and the
ear bones Of whales, which are ex-
tremely hard, but very rarely other
bones"

Taxpayers
League Meeting
Members Discuss Important Matters of
County Taxes.

The regular meeting of the
Rathdrum taxpayers league was
held last Saturday afternoon from
4 to E o'clock. Chairman Martin
Poleson presided.
W. F. Fehlhaber condemned in
fiuences which he believed were
exerted in the legislature in behalf
of special interests and detrimen-
tai to the general public. AS an
instance he said he had learned
that state land matters had been
SO manipulated in favor of sheep
men that settlers buying state land
appraised at $40 an acre are re-
quired to pay an additional $40 an
acre for so-called "improvements,"
the state collecting the additional
amount and paying it over to the
former lessees. He also condemn
ed the automobile license law
which takes money out of the
county in which it rightfully be-
longs, and he commented on the
various state associations of county
officials who meet periodically at
! Boise at the expense of the tax
payers. He favored lower salaries
! and said he believed that if men,
bers of the Legislature served with
out pay, other than a limited
amount for expenses, better service
could be obtained. He also spoke
! of the present Kootenai county
debt being over $500, 900, large
increase in recent years, and called
attention to the county's donation
| to the county fair last year being
practically all spent for company
of negro entertainers instead of for
agricultural exhibits.
Nels Nelson said he could not
understand why heavy taxpayers
who are antagonistic to Increasing
taxes did not take more interest in
the work of the league and take
part in the discussion of plans for
obtaining relief. He differed with
Mr.. Fehlhaber in the matter OF
salaries, being of the opinion that
good men should be elected and
paid fair salaries and then be COM
PEELED to give the people an
economical and efficient admins
tration. He favored the recall OF
officials who prove incompetent or
dishonest.
Discussing the petition for an
audit of the county records, w. ].
Tucker stated that he had been in
formed that the books are audited
several times a year by the bond
ing companies. He said he hoped
this matter would be taken up and
looked into by the taxpayers asso'
citation at Ceur d'Alene with q
,iew to ascertaining to what ex'
tent the interests OF the taxpayers
are conserved by such audits.
Chairman Poleson made extend
ed remarks concerning the politi
cal system under which Office
seekers are all more or less bounc
5 together by party affiliations, how
: men are elected not so much be
, cause they are "good fellows" o.
: they "need the salary. He de
clared the belief that such condi
+: tions would continue until tht
5 people changed them.

leagues was submitted by the rs

Hall hit home run which went
foul by six feet, and Bross then
knocked a center fly, ordinarily gooc

out of the clouds, after dropping two

Crested Butte
Somerset Route

The series of games that have been
played this season by the teams of
Somerset, Montrose and Crested
Butte has shown the need Of short
route to the North Fork country in
Il way that appeals to the business
man, lie he sportsman or not. Take
into consideration the time and ex-
pcpse TO come from Somerset TO this
place to attend the recent games.
Somerset to Delta, to Gunnison, by
auto to the Buttes, arriving just at
dusk, distance l65 miles and an all
day trip. Span the arc by Il chord
over Kebler and down the .Anthrac-
ite with good road Leave Som
erset; reach Crested Butte i'll two or
two and a half hours, by auto; dis
tance, about thlrty-five miles.
Plenty of time for ball game, ,social
visit or business transaction and
return home the same day. This
would be fe sible for any of the
North Fork towns clear down to
Delta. Tn saved; money saved.
Aside from the benefit of travel by
having good auto route, would be
the opening of market for the
products of the fruit, ranch and
stock men of the valley. In Il recent
conversation with prominent busi-
ness man of Hotchkiss, he expressed
the belief that good road hetween
this point and the North Fork would
he OF greater benefit to that section
than the Redstoue project, AS the
demand for the products OF the val
ley would be greater here in this
mountainous section, owing To the
proximity of the Crystal River coun-
try tu .he valley of the Grand. Both
roads are needed and it Is to be
hoped that next season will see both
routes in operation.

Japanese who were fellow passen-

seem almost impossible to harmonic

This difference of business principles
was the cause why the Nippon Yusen
kaisha some time ago declined the Of

of amalgamation do not suggest any
means of harmonizing this difference

the business method with view to its

quite inconsistent with the course of
