ASSESSORS
WANT CHANGES
MEETING AT BOISE WILL
PROVE BENEFICIAL TO
TAXPAYERS

County Assessor William In
gram, who attended the state
meeting Of county assessors,
held at Boise recently reports a
good session with some things
accomplished which will prove
generally beneficial. The fol-
lowing summary of the conven-
tion's work will be interesting to
the taxpayers:
The conclusion was reached
that the assessment of all real
property would remain the same
this year as equalized by the
state board in 1922.
Several changes were made in
the assessment of live stock.
The valuation of sheep this year
will be $5 head; whereas, in
1922 it was $4. Cattle will be
assessed on the same valuation
as in 1922, with stock cattle at
$40 and COWS from $35 up, this
depending on the breed. The
assessment on work horses will
be reduced to a basis of $40 val
uation; last year this being
placed at $50. Hogs will be as
sessed on a valuation of 5 cents a
pound. There will be no change
in the manner and price attach
ed to the assessment of personal
property in this county.
The meeting was addressed by
Gov. Moore, the keynote Of his
talk being economy. On the
second day representative
from each the house and senate
waited on the assessors and re-
quested that they frame an am
endment to the law covering the
licensing of motor vehicles,
which was done and it is expect
ed that this viii be introduced
in the legislature in the near
future.
Weight to Govern License Fee.
This proposed amendment pro
vides that, on all motor vehicles
weighing 1900 pounds or less to
make the annual license fee $40,
and for cars and trucks weigh
ing in excess Of that to charge
81 for each additional 10C
pounds or major fraction there
of.
For the purpose of this chap
ter to the state laws the weight
of any motor vehicle is defined
to be the weight of a new motor
vehicle with all equipment thai
is furnished by the manufacture
er.
The motorcycle fee of SIS is re
commended to be allowed to re
main the same, and the custom
of removing one-third of thu
license tax when a car is five
years old or over was also sug
gested to again prevail.
The proposed. amendmen
further recommends that whel
applicant for licenses shall hav'
become the owner of and receiv
ed possession of the vehicle fo.
which he wants a license be
tween January 1 and August
he shall pay the full-annua
license fee. If he shall becom
the owner between August l an,
Nov. he shall pay only half tn
annual license fee, and after tha
only one-fourth of the annua
fee.
The fee for a manufacturer
of dealers license is $35 for a.
makes of motor vehicles, and SO
for each additional plate.

MARK HOWE DIES IN
A LEWISTON HOSPITAL

Mark Howe, one of the best
known men in Idaho and plo-
neer of this state, died at St.
Joseph's hospital at 2 o'clcck
Sunday morning, death being
caused by cancer.
Mr.. Howe was taken to the
hospital the fore part of last
week for treatment. For three
or four years he had been suffer
ing internally and the nature of
his sickness was not known. lie
had been treated during this
period of time for stomach trcu-
BILE and kindred ailments. His
attending physician decided that
the only course to pursue III
order to locate the seat of Mr..
Howe's trouble was by operation,
and on last Wednesday the pa
tient was made ready for this.
The operation showed that
large cancerous growth had at
tached itself to the bowels, and
so much danger attached to the
removal of this that the opening
was sewed up.
Mr.. Howe showed signs of his
illness reaching the fatal stage
Saturday afternoon. His family
and a number of very intimate
friends were summoned and
these remained with him until
the end. Walter Brown and Jay
Rhoades, among Mr.. Howe's
most intimate friends, were pre-
sent when he passed away.

in north-central and northern
Idaho is removed. A man always
taking an active part in the af-
fairs of the democratic party.
Mr.. Howe had occasion to travel
over the state during the cam
paign periods, and in every local
ity his friends were legion. Mr..
Home served as deputy United
States marshal for eight years
during the Wilson administra-
ton, and as an official he left
office with an enviable record
The deceased was a man Of high
est ideals of citizenship. Al
through his life he stood for the
right and those who have known
him since he came to Idaho some
35 years ago point out that the
manner in which he lived was
we'll worthy of exemplificatior
by all.
Mr.. Howe was a native o.
Maine and was 68 years old a
