STATISTICS ON THE TAX DEBATE

number Of democratic- comparison
papers In the state have published the
misinformation that the Utah Light
and Power Company has been taxed at
very low figure in Idaho while Titan.
which they claim has less OF the COM
pany's property within its borders,
taxes IL at much higher rate. The
charge OF the hyphanated papers is
along this line:
The Power Trust announces II is
satisfied with its assessment for this
year. Why not. when IL liz known that
two-thirds of It's property IL In Idaho
and third in Utah. and yet II is
assessed for 25 million dollars in Utah
and mllllol five hundred thousand
dollars In Idaho"
Here are the facts:- An officer of
the State OF Idaho visited Utah and
while there took up the matter with
the Utah Tax Commission. A careful
survey made by the Utah Tax Com
property OF the Utah Light & Power
Company was between S2i.000,000 and
$25 900 900 and that three fifths of the
system was In Utah and two-fifths in
Idaho The Board of Equalization,
with Governor Davis sitting as Chair
man, knowing that Utah had assessed
for $500. 900. set the Idaho assessment
ut $50 or S6.500.00e. This was a flat
raise OF 81 soc, 900 for Idaho, as Gov
ernor Alexander's administration had
set the value at S5.000,000.

THE ROUND TABLE CONFERENCE

We note with grave concern that
President Wilson has decided that
our nations importance can be divided
into three parts; one part industry,
one part organized labor and one part
composed Of all that remains. Where
does the fundamental production enter
into the scheme2 Where does the
rancher and the farmer appear? To
use statistics resulting from President
Wilson's appointments OF representa-
tIves to the Round Table Conference
the farmer and the rancher have only
one eleventh OF the representation ac-
corded 10 the third class.
There have been numerous claims
that more laws have been passed
In favor Of the farmer under Wilson's
administrations than ever before In
our history. No word has come OF any
Incident which has disturbed the re-
lations between Wilson and the real
producing public II can only be ex-
planned by the fact that since hob
nobbing with continental royalty he
has become alienated from his former
interests.

convened al appointive committee at
the White House this week The
representation is by invitation and the
president has invited twenty-five from
organized labor. twenty-five from COM
mercial Industries and twenty-five from
all other walks OF citizenry. To rep

delegates were invited.

HEADQUARTERS
INVESTIGATE IDAHO FUNDS
Auditors From N. Dakota in Nampa to
see What Happened to State Funds
GOODING, IDAHO

Boise, Idaho-Simultaneou with the
Associated Press news from Fargo,
North Dakota, that loans to the Town
ley interests had wrecked one of the
large banks of that state, the Scan
danavian- American of Fargo, with LA
bilities amounting to more than
81, 800, 900, came news from Nampa
that two auditors from national head
quarters of the Nom Partisan League
in North Dakota We're there checking
over the Idaho branch of the League, in
order to get definite accounting of
the funds that have been subscribed
by farmers to the Nom Partisan League.
II was stated that some interesting
information would be forthcoming, and
a man who is connected with the Leagu
is authority for the statement that
several features of the financial
management of the league Affairs,
which were not approved by the di-
rectors and stockholders, would be
gone into IN a searching manner.
This indicates that the operations of
the league leaders in Idaho who have
been imported from North Dakota for
the most part. are again under fire of
league members themselves and most
disclosures are expected.

Runes.

"Runes" were the letters of the al.
phabet used by the old Teutonie
tribes. The word means hidden lore
The earliest runes were merely fanci-
full signs supposed to possess mysteri-
GUS power. The letters were even
considered magical, and were cast into
the air, written separately upon chips,
TO fall as fate determined. on a cloth
and 10 be read by the interpreters.
The association of the runic letters
with heather superstitions caused the
first Christian teachers to discourage
their use.
