has written about it number of
times County Auditor Estes is just
in receipt of another letter on the sub
ject in which Van Deuzen says Latah
is the only one of the Al counties that

This is an old controversy. 1t has
been up for years and Auditor Estes
predecessor in office fought out the
issue with the state officials. But Van
Deuzen calls attention to new statute
enacted in 1913 which provides that
the state is entitled to recover the
full amount of taxes under state lev.
les whether the county collected the
full amount or not.
County Auditor Estes takes the pO-
sition that the law of 1913 is not re-
troactive, and that as the amount now
claimed by the state, covers the per-
iod from 1902 to 1911 that it cannot
be collected now under law enacted
in 1913 The matter is up before the
board of county commissioners this

PICKED B0CHES

ber of picked German storm troops
made the attack on the Americans af
ter an itense and continued barrage
fire, according to stories told by sur
vivors. American honor was fully up
held in the contest. Preparations are
being made to bury the three Amer
lean dead in a little American GEM
etery near the camp.
Story of the Fight
These American soldiers had only
been in a few days. Before dawn Sat-
urday the Germans began shelling
vigorously the barbed wire front of
the trenches, dropping many high ex-
plosives of large calibre. A heavy
artillery fire was then directed so as
to cover all the adjacent territory,
including the passage leading up to
the trenches, thereby forming a most
effective barrage in the rear as well
as in front.
the detachment of Americans started
back to the communicating trenches
to his immediate superior for orders.
The barrake knocked him down, but
he picked himself up and started off
again. He was knocked down a Sec
ond time but, determined to reach his

he was knocked down and badly she'll
and was put out of action.
Soon after that Germans to the
number, according to the report, of
210, rushed through the breaches in
the wire entanglements on each side
of the salient, their general objective
barrage in the forefield having lifted
for moment. The Germans went
into the trenches at several points.
They met with stout resistance
For many minutes there was con-
siderable confusion in the trenches,
the Germans stalking the Americans
and the Americans stalking the Ger
mans In one section of the. trench
an American private engaged two Ger
mans with the bayonet. That was
he last seen of him. until after the
raid, when a dead American was
