How can Roy Leeper increase tim
Der taxes 80 per cent. in Clearwater
county when Assessor Hinckley can t
get away with a five per cent. in
crease over the general average
throughout the state? Mr.. Leeper
might with as much reason propose to
raise all the taxes from timber, and
let the rest of us off free. If he can
arbitrarily fix one value, he can fix
another value, can't he? If he car
override the state board, and ignore
the rates and values in other counties,
he can assess timber at $40 per thou
sand, or 800 per thousand, or any
other figure. If Mr.. Leeper car
make good, why did the state bcarc
cut p. H. Blake's assessment 20 pei
cent, with the Hon. B. Hoar in Boise
looking after the interests of the
"deer peepul? MIR. Leeper, like Pat
rick Henry Blake, is a mighty small
potato, for assessment of counties
must conform to the general averages
throughout the state. Leeper' prop
osition is pipe dream, based on the
presumption that the people are MOI
only lacking in common sense, bu

Wilson policy of butting in and in

on this country conditions worse

by all classes in Mexico today. Our
people have been murdered even on
our own soil by Mexicans, outraged
by Wilson's laundering in Mexico S

(From Our Regular Correspondent
New YOrk's Troublcs-"Little old
New York, as the Gothamites love to
call II, has been and is having its
troubles these days. A street rail-
way strike which involved most of
the surface lines and threatened to
fie up every means of transportation
has Just ended, after costing the com
panies involved about $350,OOO. The
weather has been torrid in the ex-
IRENE, which has given increased I'm
petus to the infantile paralysis plague.
II has stricken $3.50 little ones and
sent 1874 little white caskets to the
cemeteries, with no prospects OF
abatement in sight. And business men
are now worrying over the possibility
of a general railroad strike which
may tie up all the lines of the country
and occasion great financial loss.
Much praise is given Oscar s. Straus,
who was Secretary of Commerce and
Labor in the Roosevelt administration
and who, as chairman of the Public
Service commission, proclaimed the
failure of the head of one of the street
railway companies to keep a former
agreement with its employees, thus
fixing the blame for the strike and
taking from the railway companies the
moral support they otherwise might
have had from the community.

the special taxes to be used to make
good the Treasury deficit. The Demo-
cratic Senate caucus has voted great

as peculiarly "a source of revenue for
the states themselves. There is no
doubt whatever that the income tax
will be increased, although by how
much is still a question. The Senate
plan is to lower the exemption and tax
all incomes over $4,000 for single men
and $4,000 for married men, with in
creases of the present rates for the
larger incomes. II is also proposed to
impose special taxes on all materials

lions business is falling on and The
manufacturers epect to be left with
great plants on their hands for which
they will have comparatively little

ated the result might be productive OF
