take final action.
The proposal is to form an i'm
provement district of the entire
town and make every piece of
property pay its pro rata of the ex-
pense incurred. To form this dis
trict it is necessary to secure the
names Of seventy percent of the
resident property owners of the
town On a petition. This petition
is put into the hands of the Village
Board who then proceed to torn the
district. A preliminary survey is
made. The next step is to adver-
tise for bids and if suitable bid is
received, contract let for the
work. This has been found to be
the most satisfactory way of getting
results in municipal improvements.
The meeting adjourned with
everyone present in the best of
spirits, as all felt that something
definite had been accomplished.
After the meeting the Village
Board met in a short session and
turned over the matter of securing
preliminary estimates to the North
western Engineering and Construc-
tion Co. Mr.. Tigglebeck began
work Immediately Tuesday morn
ing and promises to have the estim-
ates ready not later than Monday
As soon as this estimate IS in, an.
other meeting is to be called anc
final action taken.
| The plans as outlined at the meet
ing include the surfacing of Mair
Street from one end of town to the
other and all important side streets
that are used for heavy traffic
This is the greatest step forward
that Kendrick has ever undertaken
!, 1t will be wonderful improvement
to the town and will eventually re

School Election Monday

Next Monday is scnooI election.
At this time competent board of
trustees should be elected so that
the Kendrlck school will continue
to flourish. There will be difficult
problems for the board to solve as
teachers salaries are annually in
creasing and all other expenses of
the school are enlarging. A. Will
mot was member of the board un-
til he established his residence IN
Juliaetta. Since that time there
have been but two members on the
board, e. S Porter and Harry Stan
ton. Mr.. Porter expects to leave
next month, so Mr.. Stanton is the
sole remaining member of the old
board eligible to serve another
year. Mr.. Stanton has expressed
his intention to resign but as he has
been a very satisfactory member and
is particularly efficient clerk of
the board. he surely ought to be
retained another year. His term
does not expire this year. The
choosing of two conservative men
on the board with him who will
look after the finances of the school
as we'll as the many other details
is the important issue that will be
before the voters next Monday.

ary Estimates Being Prepared by Engineer

Last Monday evening at $50,
crowd numbering fifty Kendrick
boosters gathered at the Hotel
Kendrlck to enjoy banquet and
talk over anything that might come
up for the welfare of the town and
surrounding territory. The ban
quet was excellent and up to the
usual standard which kas been set
heretofore by the hotel manage
ment.
After the members Of Hendricks
booster club had been brought up to
the proper pitch of perfect good
nature by having their gastronomic
proclivities satisfied, Charles Nc
keever, chairman OF the club, pre-
sided over the meeting. After dis
posing of number of minor mat.
tiers, paving was brought up. This
is a time-worn subject and didn't
create more than the usual amount
of enthusiasm until figures quoted
by civil engineer, who happened
to be present, put the question in
such a favorable light that interest
developed into enthusiasm. En-
gineer A. TiggIebeck of the North
western Engineering and Construc.
! tlonC o., of Lewiston, gave approx
mate estimates Of the cost of paving
with concrete and macadam. The
difference in price was so strongly
in favor of the macadam that it wa:
practically a unanimous opinion
that macadam was the logical sur
face to be used.
After discussing the subject from
all angles 1T was the unanimou
verdict to get preliminary estimate
OF the cost of macadamlzing ant
also figures on concrete paving
The Club asked that the Villag
Board hire a civil engineer AM

Clean Up Your Town

A town looks like its citizens. Is
there anything wrong with your
town? Are the back lots filled with
rubbish? Are the easements full
of trash? Is there rubbish leading
to exits that people would have to
pass over? II there are any of these
conditions existing, then there is
something the matter with your
town.
If your tongue were coated, your
back ached and you had chills, you
would go to a doctor. You would
go because you were sick.
Your town is sick. 1t gets clog
ged up like your system, and is COM
ing to the only doctor it can come
to. 1t is coming to You.
People judge town by its looks.
If there have been fires in your
town from moss on the roof, from
defective flues or from rubbish IN
the basement, it is too bad.
Property that could have been
taxed and thus help to reduce your
burden is beyond the power of taxa
tion.
Food that could have been eaten
is destroyed.
Gold with all its alchemy cannot
substitute; it has purchasing power
not food value.
Clean up YOUR town.
It will mean dollars and cents tt
you.
1t may mean the saving of life.
Your own home may be destroyed
by the careless act of a nelghbor.
His home is in the same danger a.
yours.
Sunlight, fresh air and cleanli
ness never start spontaneous com
bustion; lack of ventilation an,
accumulation of filth and dirt will.
. This is your town.
You live in it. 1t is what yo
: make it.
Remove those unsightly and dar
gerous piles of rubbish.
l Clean up and fix up.

To Ex-Service Men

Post Commander E. I. Long re-
quested the Gazette to publish the
following information for the
benefit of the Ex-Servlce men in
this community. The information
was clipped from "Ihe Pacific
Legion"
with preferential rights to eX-
service men, the opening to home
stead entry of $4,000 acres of land
in Western Oregon, formerly en-
braced in the Oregon and Californ-
ia railroad grant, has been announc-
ed by the government.
Steady! AS you were. Before
pawning your croix de guerre, tin
hat, swagger stick, iron cross and
tallor-made D. DIS, listen to what
James O.. Convlll, civil engineer
and member Of Portland, Oregon,
post of The American Legion, has to
say regarding Uncle Sans magma
minity to the war veterans.
Congress has not done damned
thing for the ex-service man in CIV
ing him so-called preferential
rights in settlement on the Oregon
and California land grants. and
Congress knows it," We quote
the gentleman literally. Mighty
few acres in the grants are worth q
whoop and the squatters have the
pick of those that are valuable. II
is an outrage to permit the average
service man to put any money into
these lands. And it will cost
money, too. There are few mer
who could successfully take up {
claim with less than 5000 cash tt
draw on, or $1,000 as the minimum
"The real preferential rights goe
to the squatter. The land is not ;
gift to the ex-service man by an!
means. He is obliged to put VI
SO cents an acre, or $50 on a quarte
section, pay SIS filing fee, ant
, other items totalIing about $1O5
: Then after seven months on th'
land, he must put up 81 an acr
! more.
100 many men are likely to G
S into this proposition without know
l ing what they are up agains,

x The shortage of feed is a really
serious matter in this community.
Last week there were farmers in
the vicinity of town who had no
more than enough hay to last one

Shipments are coming IN every few

short time. The extremely long

shortage of feed.

Attorney Gives Opinion

There was some contention whether
it was lawful for road overseer in
highway district to hire one of his
relatives to do work upon the high
ways. The following commuinca-
tion from Attorney A. H. Oversmlth
gives an opinion upon the subject:
April l3, 1920.
Commissioners Kendrck
Highway District,
kendrlck, Idaho.
Gentlemen:
Is 1t lawful for person employed
as overseer Of roads by Highway
District to employ his son or other
relatives to perform labor upon the
Highways within the district?
The above question is in substance
one which your Board has asked
me to give an opinion upon. un-
derstand that you are having diff
Guilty In getting certain highways
taken care of on account of the in
ability of your various highway dis
trict cverseers to take care of the
roads, and if the above question can
be answered in the affirmative that
a portion of your problems will be
solved.
In 1918 the Legislature of the
State of Idaho, passed what is called
the "Nepotism Law" which mad for
its object the prohibition of the
employment of relatives by certain
officials. That law was before the
Supreme Court of the State of Idaho
in April 1915, in the case of Barton,
plaintiff. VS.. Alexander ct al, de-
) PENDANTS, reported in 27 Idaho, page
286. The Supreme Court IN that
: case says as follows:-
'The act having especially enum-
Grated only one subdivision, to wit,
a road district, that is not muni-
cipal subdivision, all other sub
j divisions of the state which are not
municipal subdivisions are
: EXCLUDED, hence it does not
apply to school districts, irrigation
districts, drainage districts or i'm.
provement districts. since they are
not municipal subdivisions of the
state. This court held in Fenton v
Board of Commissioners, 20 Ida. 1892
119 Pac. Al, that school district is
not a municipal corporation wlthir
the meaning of sec. 6, art. 7, of the
y constitution. Said act is only in
- S tended to apply to municipal sub
~ divisions .of the state and road dis
tricts.."
1, The road districts referred to il
!; both the act of the Legislature ant
y in the opinion Of the Supreme Cour
70 embraces merely such road district
as are designated by the Count
Commissioners. Highway district
such as you have, and Good Roa
r DISTRICTS. are very similar in tn
methods of their organization an
Ia in the methods of their government
rt to irrigation districts and drainag
an districts. Highway Districts an
ed Good Road Districts are probabl
or included in what the Suprem
I'd Court desigantes as "lmprovemer
IT. Districts. | am therefore of til
opinion that the Nepotlsm act dot
It. not apply to highway districts.
at Yours very truly.
