having permits and again liberated
after having an aluminium band firmly
fastened to one leg. These bands are
numbered and also are stamped with
the address of the person or associa-

listing all data in connection with each
bird liberated. When the bird is killed
the gunner is requested to communi-
cate with the address on the band,
giving the number, species of duck and
place and date killed. From these
facts it is very easy to determine the
routes travelled by the birds, and as
more and more of this information
the more certain we will
be of their exact movements.

innocently in the guise Of hastily writ
ten news stories. Those who are con-
eerned in the matter from the stand
point Of opposition to the Republican
administration are pretending TO make
it appear that . world Of money
Is being expended in excess Of the
normal or necessary eYendituFes.
This il far from the truth as the Of
fetal records show.
To begin with, the present state ad-
ministration was left legacy Of ST.
621 ,313.11 by the Alexander admins
tration, that it had to provide in or
der to re-establish the states credit
and place Idaho on cash basis. From
1915 to 1918 both inclusive, the Alex
ander administration deliberately fail
ed to levy s606,313.11, which was nee
essary to met the expenses that the
Alexander administration itself in
Cured This deficiency had to be met
by the last legislature and the present
administration. Moreover, when the
late Governor Haines turned the reins
of administration over to Governor
Alexander, there was an actual cash
balance of S747,000 in the treasury.
This was all used by the Alexander ad-
ministration. The Alexander admin
istration also spent for expenses S121,-
900 insurance for the soldiers home
and the Lewiston normal school fires
$4,000 that was provided for the
Snake river bridge and $4,000 simil-
arly provided for the Gem irrigation
district. All these items total nearly
81, 625, O00 In addition the Alexander
administration created a deficiency in
1918 of s217,185.30 in current expen-
ses. This total of s1,850,000 repre-
sents the cost in money to this state
of the Alexander administration. In
other words, it was in the red that
much and the present administration
had to make it up.
The present administration was also
confronted with the fact that the con-
limit on bonded indebted |
ness of 2 million dollars had ben reach
ed within less than $4,000, so it was
necessary, in order to defray the grow
ing expenses of state government,
which had increased in harmony with 1
expenses of every business and every
family in the state, to make apprc
priation and levy direct tax. But
for this constitutional limitation, much (
Of this money would have been raised
by bond issues, thereby avoi ling direct
taxation.

While his returns from the left side
were generally defensive and seemed
soft by comparison with the rife

enough speed to prevent any actual

and several times they resulted in
accurate placements which took the
