Switchback. 1t is here that the
stage people keep a change of
horses where the incoming and
outgoing coaches spend noon
every day. Horses are changed
here and all the travellers get
refreshments before making the
ten mile mountain climb to reach
the ton. 1t is a place that is
essential for the comfort and
convenience of all who travel in
to the interior of these noun
tains. Various parties have been
in possession for the past 25
years and it has aways been
maintained by private capital
and individual enterprise. It
happened to be located in the
forest reserve. During all these
years a huge pile of manure has
accumulated there and now a
forester comes along and orders
William Cole. the present owner,
to make the mountain of waste
off OF the reserve but does not
furnish any place upon which to
move it. It is five miles to the
nearest settlement and it is the
custom of the western farmers
not to enrich the land by fertili-
Zation. This leaves Mr.. Cole in
a sad plight. He is ordered by
representative Of the govern
ment to do a thing that seems
imnossible. This property is
held bv the state to be private
property and is taxed according
ly. Along comes the forester
ard claims the right to compel
the owner to take out a permit
and nay additional tax for the
privilege of operating what the
state considers private property.
This indicates that we are con-
trolled by a dual government,
both with the power to tax the
neople. Now, if that is true,
it is about time for the people of
Idaho to emigrate, but we have
learned not to be surprised at
anything the foresters do. That
stopping place at Switchback
is a real public necessity and |
deny that any sort of govern
ment has the right to exploit a
public necessity. ] believe that
Mr.. Cole is within his rights
when he refuses to confirm to
the mandate of a questionable
authority. We never can tell
what will come up next. During
my twenty years of experience
with the foresters the most that
they have done is to draw bet
ter salary than anyone else could
command and raise the mischief
with serious people, who were
struggling to pay their salaries.

HOLY SEE MAY JOIN s.
LEAGUE OF NATIONS
BY Henry Wood
Omitted Press STAFF Corresponder


Rome Nov. 25.-In the recent for
NAL decision of the Italian popular
Cor Catholic) party to throw the
whole weight of it's influence in ia
vor OF the League of Nations and the
international Labor Bureau, Italian
politicians not only profess to see the
Hand of His Holiness, but also to see
the first step of the Holy See towards
eventual admission to the League Of
Nations.
That Pope Benedict has cherished
this hope since President Wilson
tirst gave utterance to the idea of a
society of nations has never been
secret. The only thing that has pre-
vented the Vatican from taking defin-
mite steps toward that end has beer
certainty Of severe opposition that
would be aroused in various quarters,
and especially in Italy--at least as
long as the Vatican-Quirinal question
remains unsettled.
When, the past summer, there was
summoned at Geneva an internation-
al conference for stricken Russia, in
Whlch the League Of Nations, the
lted Cross and other similar inter
national associations participated
Pope Benedict for the first time in
years had the Vatican officially repre-
sented.
Later, when the League of Nations
assembly convened at Geneva in Sep
TENDER, His Holiness exchanged
friendlicst notes with President Kar-
nebeck. Still later Pope Benedict
placed at the disposal of the League
OF Nations one million lire for distri-
button on behalf of the Russian fam
inc sufferers.
And now the popular or clerical
party, which in the three short years
OF Its existence has become the next
strongest political party in Italy after
the socialists, has adopted as one of
the fundamental planks of it's plat-
form the party's whole-hearted sun
port of the League of Nations.

LEGAL FIGHT PLANNED ...
FOR ARCHDUKE'S ESTATE.
Plans Completed BY American
Syndicate for Possession of
n Frederic's Estate
By Webb Miller

UNITED Press Staff Correspondent -.
Paris, Nov. 25.--The plans are
completed by thirty-million dollar
American. syndicate for one OF the
biggest international legal battles IN
history for the possession of the vast
estates Of the. Archduke Frederic of
Austria, ex-commander of the Aus
ro-Hungarian armies during the war.
The first move is an attack upon the
interpretations by three Central Eu-
ropean countries of the treaties of
peace. A charge is to be lodged be-
fore the tribunals established by the
treaties accusing the governments Of
Czecho-Slovakia, Yugo- Slavia and
Austria of, fatty violating the pro
visions of the treaties by contiscatlng
the archduke'sJ estates. .-. ,
The American syndicate which has
acquired rights to the administration
or the properties includes Charles H.
Sabin, j. Leonard Replogle, Frank A,
Munsey, Thomas J. Fielder, William
A. Honnard and Louis Chevrillon.
Samuel Untermeyer, the famous New
York attorney, represented the syndi-.
cate in the preliminary negotiations
in Vienna, Carlsbad" and Paris.
The great estates Of the archduke
are valued at around two hundred
million dollars and include the steel
works and mines at Teschen, hun
dreds of thousands Of acres of forest
lands, sugar beet plantations, apart
ment buildings, several historic cas-
ties, a dairying industry and the Won
derful Albertina Museum in, Vienna.
Before the war the archduke was
one of the wealthiest men in Europe.
His estates yielded an income of
from ten to fifteen million dollars
per year. After the war the new states
carved from the territories of Aus
tria-Hungary contiscated or seques-
tered the estates on the ground that
Frederic is member of the Haps-
burg family and that the coniiscation
was sanctioned by the peace treaties.
The archduke and the syndicate
contend that the right of confisca-
ton extends only to the state prop
erty of the former reigning family
and not to the private fortunes of
citizens, because they happen to be
connected with the Hapsburg family.
The claim is advanced that Fred
