Kinnears Home Sunday

Mr. and Mrs. w. l.. Kinnear and son
Emera, returned home Sunday after
having spent several months in east
ern cities where Emera underwent
several operations. The Kinnears first
went to Mayo Bros. hospital at Ro-
chester where Emera spent several
weeks undergoing examinations by
specialists. An operation was per-
formed when his trouble was dag
nosed as tumor of the brain This op-
Grafton was to relieve pressure on the
brain caused by a tumor. Then he
was taken to famous specialist at
Baltimore, Maryland, and two more
operations were performed, the last
one being successful and permitting
the removal of the tumor. Since the
operation Emera has steadily improved
and was able to stand the long trip
home. He is still weak but is gaining
strength daily and expects roon to be
about and to renew clearing work on
his ranch near Moravia.

Momen,s Clothing Project

A request for the assignment of a
clothing specialist to Boundary county
brought out the fact that the state
workers are scheduled ahead about
three months. October is as early as
any promise for help could be Sc
cured. Before the county agent puts
in a definite request, therefore, he
feels that classes should be better or
ganized so that there may be no lost
motion. All women and girls interest
ed in taking up dress form making, dry
cleaning, or millinery at such time as
a specialist can be secured, October
or November, are accordingly request
ed to enroll with local committee
women or send names to the county
agent before August 7th. The follow
ing women have already done commit

The members of the Modern Wood

district under the auspices Of the
Woodmen.
The committee in charge of the pic

friends from all parts of northern Ida
no, and from western Montana will be
here to enjoy the day. 1t is expected
that a large delegation will be here
from Spokane and several lodges from
nearby towns will send drill teams.
The committee hopes to arrange for
special railroad rates and if possible
a special train will be run from Spo-
kane leaving that city at six o'clock in
the morning and returning, leave here
about ten o'clock
The program committee plans to ar
range for sports and contests that will
provide amusement for the crowds all
day long. A log rolling contest will
be had and large cash prizes will be
offered. A ball game will be one of
the features of the days events and
dancing will be arranged for in the af-
ternoon and evening.
The committee is also arranging for
a good program of athletic sports and

its members large company of men
who are enthusiastic lodge workers
and who will be able to make a great
success of the proposed picnic. On
this account the public may we'll look
forward to big day on August 2Sth.
Yesterday r. E. Luse and A. A. Nc
Intyre appeared before the directors
of the Kootenai Valley Commercial
Club and asked that assistance be Civ
en- the Woodmen in their plans for the
August 2Sth picnic.
Mr., Luse stated that from present
indications at least 1000 people from
out-of-town points would be here for
the picnic including Woodmen and
their wives and friends from all of
northern Idaho, eastern Washington
and western Montana. He stated that
Bonners Ferry would get great deal
of advertising from this big event and
with Mr.. Mcintyre he asked the moral
support of the club and aid in the eff
forts to secure special trains, special
rates and sleeping accommodations for
the visitors.
Mr. Mcintyre told that the drill team
of the Woodmen lodge of Spokane con-
sidered the best in northwestern states,
would be here and that there would
be at least eight or nine teams here
for the day from various towns.
The committee has not definitely de-
cided upon grounds but it is likely the
picnic will be held in the city park. 1t
is planned to have the park cleared
of rubbish, many stumps removed, and
put in shape to accommodate the
crowds and provide space for the con-
tests, etc.

Alene yesterday the federal officials
mao approved the final Changes in tbo
specifications and all the state onS
county OFFICIALS were satisfied. 1t re-
mains Tor the county commissioners to
approve officially the new plans for
work Dut their action will not hold nm
OF delay the commencing of work.
IN bonner county the same condi-
uons prevailed as in Boundary and
many changes had to be made in order
70 get within the appropriation avail
aDle Similar action has been taken
IN many other counties of the state as
all road contractors have vet failed to
Dld on road work within the estimates
of the engineers.
Local road enthusiasts are iubilant
over the fact that the state highway
road matter is at last settled and bids
let. 1t seemed for a time that the hitch
with the federal authorities might be
fatal to the project as demands made
for changes in routes seemed prohibi-
tive because of the additional expense
that would be entailed Right now all
the right-of-ways needed, with the ex-
ception of two, have been secured. The
county officials have all worked hard
all summer to get action taken and
work started on the highway and now
1t is certain that these efforts have
been successful and that in a few
months this county will have at least
one hard-surfaced road and will have
made start towards securing better
roads in all sections.

WHY IDAHO STATE TAXES
Are HIGHER This YEAR

both to yourself and to the present
state administration.
This analysis has tended to show
that the cabinet form of government
is not, IN fact, an expensive form, de-
spite the fact that more money has
Deen available for expenditure under
It. 1t has tended to show that the cab
met form has introduced efficiencies
impossible or, at least, improbable un-
der the old government with its con-
flicting offices, impending obstacles
and red tape"
These are concluding sentences from
an analysis of Idaho's first year under
the cabinet form prepared by an un-
prejudiced observer for the Boise
statesman. Particular significance is
given this utterance by the fact that
the Statesman has been anything but
cordial in it's support of the present
state administration.
Despite the fact that many tracts
sold had just gone through long
droughts which left them without
crops Of any nature the state land de-
partment last year succeeded in rails
ing the average price received per acre
for state land more than so per cent.
In 1918 the average per acre price was
$14.27, but in 1919 it was increased to
s21.5S.
In the period from March IL, 1919,
to March 81. 1920. the state departments
of reclamation turned into the general
fund s3S,20719, This sum is approx
mately the amount which has been ex-
pended for the maintenance Of the de-
partment

tenai Valley Commercial Club by ]. r.

the subscriptions of the farmers of the
county first and then solicit the bust
ness men of Bonners Ferry for the
amount of money required to put the
association in good financial shape 1t

cred best to proceed at once to take
subscriptions from the business men
and perfect the organization.
Mr.. Wiley has therefore issued a call.
asking that all who have subscribed
for stock attend meeting to be held
next Monday at the noon hour at the
international Dining hall, at which
time definite plans will be decided
upon. officers elected and complete ar
rangements for the fair this fall be

mittee will make canvass to secure
further stock subscriptions. 1t is de-
sired that at least $4,000 be raised now
in order that fair grounds may be
bought and permanent buildings erect
ed
Don't forget to come to the meeting
next Monday if you are interested in
seeing a county fair held each fall

When, as tax payer, you are asked
by a political orator of vigorous vocal
powers and compelling manner to ex-
anime your 1919 tax receipts with a
view Of comparing them with similar
receipts Of the previous two years, it
is to be hoped that you will make the
examination he requests with a full
understanding of all significant fact
ors
Consider your municipal taxes, if
you happen to be city dweller, and
also give due weight to the burden Of
county taxation. Ask yourself, too.
whether or not your assessor has in
creased his previous valuation of your
property and then attempt to obtain
accurate information as to the causes
which lie behind the increase in state
taxes.
Did you know that the bulk of all
the increases in taxation provided for
at the last session of the legislature
will be found in such items as "State
roads and bridges-s1 ,089. 900; pay
ment of 1918 deficiency claims-s1S7.-
900; redemption Of state bonds-s165,-
900; benefit soldiers, sailors and ma
rines- $166,015"7 Do you understand
fully the imperative necessities which
brought about the legislatures decis-
ion to increase the appropriations of
our state educational institutions

and penal institutions $3.50 ,760?

Will ASK FOR A LARGER
DISTRIBUTION FROM FISHERIES

totals for all three years. as to eggs,
fry or fingerlings. In the three years
Colorado received 15,0S8,050 eggs, fry
or fingerlings, amounting to AZ per
cent of the total distribution; Montana
received 13,235,O 900, amounting to SO
per cent; and Idaho received 2S6,4OO,
amounting to three-fourths of l per
cent.
The data examined gives the distri-
button made in each species. but the
principal interest of the department is
concerned in the exceedingly low num-
ber of all species received by ldaho IN
the three year period.
In view of these figures Mr.. Jones,
through his force, is exerting every ef-
fort to bring to Idaho quota up to
par with it's just allotment from these
distributions.
Commenting on the reasons for Ida
hos failure to secure more fish from
the government, Mr.. Jones places no
blame on the government officials or
their distribution system, but merely
states that if the fish were not applied
for the government had no record OF
requirements as referring to this state.
The blame. if any, Mr.. Jones thinks,
was that of the game department or
the sportsmen of the state, in not max
ing application to the bureau OF fish
cries for paintings.
Because of the cooperative spirit
manifested toward the state game de-
nartment by all government depart
ments interested in fish and game, Mr..
Tones expresses himself as confident
tbat the applications filed with the
bureau of fisheries will receive que
consideration from that branch OF the
government service.
