WEEKLY NEWS LETTER
FROM BOISE
Resume of Events Around the
State House From Our
Special Correspondent.

One of the evidences of the wisdom
exercised by the state land board in
turning over the handling of the finan-
ces of the board, as expressed in its
investments in farm mortgages,
school bonds and in the certificates of
sale of state lands, to the state treas
urer, has been brought to light this
week with the announcement of State
Treasurer Eagleson that he had COM
pleted the listing of the securities
held by the state land board. Here
tofore it has been claimed that nc
one at any time had known just what
the investment of the land board had
amounted to. 1t is evident that al
though the amounts of such funds
could have been determined at any
time at the expense of considerable
trouble, the change that has been
brought about through the work OF
the state treasurer, should be well
come to the people of the state as well
as to the land board. What would
formerly have taken at least two
weeks work of several clerks can now
be read off from a single record IN
10 minutes time. The state land
board now has total investment in
farm mortgages, district school bonds
and certificates of sale of state lands
i
of S7,4S5, 1901. This is of date OF
May IS, 1916. Farm mortgages held
aggregate S2,673,O OS.24; school bonds,
S2,349, 1869; certificates of sale, 81
1862 ,S55.9S. These investments are
divided among the various trust FUNDS
in the following amounts: General
school fund, $4,792, 1850; normal
schools, S4S2, 1862; school of science,
$3.50, 349.S2; penitentiary, S1S8,26O.S2;
university, s429, 1858; agricultural

This is a recent discovery of Doctor
Pierce, who is head of the Invalids'
Hotel and surgical Institute at Buff
falo, NY. Experiments at DR.. Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric
acid that can be compared to it. For
those easily recognized symptoms of
nfiammation-as backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination, as well
as sediment in the urine, or if uric
acid in the blood has caused rheuma
tism, it is simply wonderful how sure
ly "Anuric" acts. The best of results
are always obtained in cases of acute
rheumatism in the joints, in gravel
and govt, and invariably the pains
and stiffness which so frequently and
persistently accompany the disease
rapidly disappear.

least hence, it will not be necessary
to leave the ticket entirely bare of
names. AS the Democrats look at it,
the placing of Alexander at the head
of the delegation to the St. Louis
convention was intended in a purely
complimentary way. A Democratic
governor from a far western state
is something not frequently seen of
late Besides, the governor is himself
a native of Missouri and spent his
younger manhood in that state, where
he has relatives and friends. So it
may be that something more of a COM
pliment may come of the honors that
have been given him. The fact that
the delegation has been raised in
number from eight. to nineteen would
seem to indicate that the collected
Democracy was anxious that as nearly
all of the party in the state as posi-
