the income tax itself, has arisen
largely out Of the high rates which
make every point that arises involve
substantial amounts of money, and
which means that each possible ques-

delay in the collection of the revenue,

MANY ATTEND FUNERAL
OF WILLIAM BYSEGGER

The church at Freese was filled
Saturday by the friends of Mr. and
Mrs. William Bysegger, who came to
pay their last respects to the de-
ceased. William Bysegger and his
wife Lois, daughter of r. I. Strong,
both grew from childhood in this
community, and many were the
friends who were saddened by his
being taken away in the prime of his
life, being about thirty years of age.
Two years ago they moved from
here to Spokane. Mr.. Bysegger's
health had been failing for several
months and November thirteenth it
was deemed advisable to perform an
operation for brain tumor, which
proved fatal.
A baby daughter had been born to
them November 26 and his wife was
not able to attend the last sad rites.
The body was accompanied from Spo-
kane by John Levi, brother-in-law of
the deceased, and the minister who
conducted the services, Mr.. Caldwell,
was his pastor and intimate friend

AFFILIATE WITH
HIGHER BODIES
LATAH COUNTY FARM BUREAU
WILL JOIN WITH FEDERAL AND
STATE BENEFITS EXPECTED.

Charles B. Stonebraker of Inde-
pendence, Iowa, representing the
American Farm Bureau federation,
was the principal speaker at meet
ing of the representatives from IS of
the "a bureau locals in Latah county,
held at the offices of the Farmers
Union, in this city yesterday after
noon, with N. Williamson, president
of the county farm bureau, presiding.
The meeting was called for the pur-
pose of deciding whether or not the
Latah county organization should join
the state and federal organization in
conducting a membership campaign
in the county. After hearing Mr.
Stonebraker and discussing the mat
ter among themselves, the members
present voted to join with the two
higher bodies and to put on a cam
paign for members sometime in jan
uary The federal and state organi-
cations will send in men to aid in
putting on the campaign.
Mr. Stonebraker explained in detail
the work of the state and federal or
ganizations, stating that the organi-
cations were for the purpose of TAX
ing up work in which the farmers
are vitally interested, but which could
not be done through the county or
ganizatiOns. The farm bureau was
given credit for the recent reduction
in freight rates on grain and hay, and
many advantages from the work of
the organization were pointed out, in
cluding the campaign for better mar
keting conditions in regard to live
stock fruit and grain.
One of the advantages seen by the
county organization in affiliatiOn
with the higher bodies, is that in this
way the farmers can be represented
at Washington, the federal farm bu-
reau keeping a record of the farmers
at the capital continuously. The
state bureau will inaugurate a traffic
department, and through this it is
hoped to secure the removal of some
Of the discriminatory rates which now
affect the inland farmers and mer-
chants.
The meeting was an enthusiastic
0ne, the farmers recognizing the good
which has been derived in the past
few years through the campaign of
education. carried on with the county
agent, G. S. Fletcher as leader, and
expecting still greater benefits
through affiliation with the state and
bodies.

SENTIMENT FAYORS
DEBATING LEAGUE
HIGH SCHOOL DEBATES MAY
MEET FOR STATE CHAMPION
SHIP AT UNIVERSITY.

There is considerable sentiment in
the state in favor of the formation OF
la high school debating league and ii
has been suggested that the Univer-
sity Of Idaho assume leadership in
putting such a league in action, says
Professor G. w. Chenoweth, univer-
sity debate coach, in a letter to Idaho
high school debate managers. The
purpose of the letter is to secure
opinions regarding the formation of
such debate league this year and to
obtain general organization plan.
1t is proposed, according to Pro-
fesSOr ChenoWeth, that the debate
and athletic districts of the state be
idenical The schedule of debates
would be identical with those of ath-
letic contests, with the exception that
elimination contests would be held
locally.
Championship at Moscow
Two teams, representing northern
and southern Idaho, would compete
for the state championship at the
university at the time of the scholas-
tic track meet, according to this plan
If it is desirable, says Professor Chen
oweth, the university will work out
schedule for all debates, when it is
known what schools will enter
1t is estimated the championship
contests will cost approximately $400
to $500 and the university has no
funds out of which this could be met.
Professor Chenoweth says a group of
students might organize ticket sell
ng campaign which would guarantee
at least 5000. He says the remainder
would be no great burden if the right
method of handling should be used
It is hoped the solution to this prob
EN- will be found in the answers from
state superintendents and principals
Prizes to Winners
The university will announce the
question and indicate way to secure
adequate material, just as soon as
of the league is assured
rhe university will also undertake to
provide suitable prizes for the win
lers.
High schools have been urged to
tate their position regarding the lea
,ue formation at the earliest possible
late, so that more definite action can
'e taken.
