STORMY TIMES
FOR COOLIDGE
NOW IN VOGUE
President Has Trouble
With Congress on Tax
Revision; Oil Expose
Creates Stir

Washington-The smooth sailing
which attended the early days of the
Coolidge administration is giving
place to squalls and rough seas. Seri-
Gus conflict between the president and
his party in the house over the Mel
Ion tax plan, a grave scandal in con-
nection with the handling of federal
oil reserves by the department of the
interior, and such mal-adminstration
OF the department OF justice that it
also threatens to assume the proper
tions of grave scandal are OCCASION
ing Mr. Coolidge and his sincere sup
porters OF utmost enxiety. Further
more. it is becoming evident that a
number OF prominent Republicans who
came out enthusiastically for Cool
idge at the beginning for the presi-
dents administration were actuated
far more by a desire for a generous
show of the liberal patronage they
knew il would fall to the new execu-
tive to dispence than by any loyal
devotion to him or his political in
terests. and now that the offices have
been flld and Mr. Coolidge looks to
them for equally loyal support for his
policies in congress he finds them side
stepping
President Coolidge went the limit
in committing himself to the Mellon
tax plan, even going to the extent
OF indicating that he will veto any
bill which does not make the reduc-
ton in the surtaxes which is SO prom
inent feature of Mr.. Melons
scheme. Representative Longworth,
the Republican leader. and others
prominent in the inner councils OF the
party in congress, have warned the
president that il will be impossible
to put through the Mellon plan III its
entirety and that the only alternative
to complete loss of the measure
will be acceptance OF some form OF
compromise. The Eastern press, so
largely dominated by "big business
is a unit, irrespective of party affilia-
tons, for the reduction OF the sur
taxes to not TO exceed 25 per cent and
this Mr.. Coolidge construes to be re-
hective of the attitude OF the entire
people. furthermore, certain of his
closest advisers remind him that if
his campaign managers are to receive
necessary financial aid il would be well
to stand by the Mellon plan. Mem

GOODS DROP CONTEST

College OF Idaho coed basketball
players lost hotly contested game to
the fast and clever Parma high school
team on the Caldwell high school
court last Thursday evening. The
game was a curtain raiser from the
Albion Normal College of Idaho con-
test.
College goods were on the short end
of 10 score at the end of the half
and the game found them still enc
point behind, the final count being
l2-ll. This is said to have been the
fastest and most cleverly played girls
game ever staged on a Caldwell court.

Bic SUM SPENT
ON IDAHO MINES
Last Year Sees Big De-
velopment of Old
Industry

Boise-Ravenal Macbeth. secretary
OF the Idaho Mining association. has
just completed survey OF eNpendi-
lures in the Occur d'Alenes during
1923 by non-producing development
companies. producing non-dividend
paying companies. leasers and individ-
uals owning unpatented mining claims.
The grand total of this expenditure
is $3.00o.9l9. OF this sum, $357. 900
was expended upon unpatented mining
claims. OF the total. more than two
thirds was expended for labor. its
share being S2.Ol5.02s Supplies come
in for Ss04. 1900
This survey. which was conducted
through personal inspection OF pro-
perties and accounts. is regarded as
highly illuminaiive 1t shows for the
first time in Idaho the great amount
of money expended in development OF
mining possibilities. In one way it
is dead work, in that it brings no
returns to the operators. but
without it, as pointed out. there would
be no such production as the state
hopes to reach ultimately.
1t also reveals the very large
amount spent by producing companies
from their profits to develop an in
dustry that is OF the highest impor-
tance to the state. The amount ex-
pended for labor alone in this So
called dead work is very large and
denotes in itself the important bear
ing OF these operations on community
and state prosperity 1t is announced
that similar surveys will be made in
other mining counties.

CALDWELL COPS
ANOTHER GAME
Weiser Loses Game Here
Friday by 3l-l5 Score
Hard Fought

Caldwell high school annexed an
other basketball victory Friday night
by taking Bill Gartin's Weiser high
school quintet into camp by Sl-lS
score. Much closer than the score
indicates, the game was hotly con-
tested from start to finish.
Caldwell high piled up an early
lead. the score standing at one time
l0-2 with the locals leading. But
Weiser came back in a hurry and by
playing the Caldwell team off its feet
in the closing minutes OF the first
canto, almost evened the count. the
half score being l2-9.
In the second half, the Caldwell
team finally struck its offensive stride
and accumulated goal after goal while
Weiser found it impossible to break
through the sturdy defense offered by
Clancy and Turner. Mum. center.
and Nickle, forward, began raining in
baskets and a substantial lead soon
made victory certain. Nickle suffered
a badly sprained knee in the second
half and was replaced by Kim but the
scoring continued.
Following the game, the domestic
science girls of the high school en-
entertained both teams with light
luncheon at the high school building.
Various entertainment features. con-
sisting OF music and readings, were
given by other high school students.

Seed Market is
Weak During Week
Inactivity Marks Busi-
ness During Latter
Part of Month

The seed business showed the same
inactivity during the week January
2l-26 as during the corresponding
week for each OF the past four years.
In recent years the demand during
the last half OF January has been slow
and usually some declines in prices
have occurred. Thus far this year
little or no inclination to cut prices
has been noted Arrivals OF red clover
from Europe continues to be heavy.
Exports OF field seeds were small
during the week.
Red and alske clover showed
further weakness and small price de-
clnes were recorded in few markets.
Approximately 100000 lbs. OF rel
clover. subject to the seed importa-
ton act arrived at New York and
Baltimore. mostly from France. EN-
ports of red clover during the calendar
year 1923 were S0O.5 $50 lbs. compared
with 2.0ls.Sol lbs. for the preceding
year. Other clover. mostly alsike. ex-
ports were S59.53l lbs. in 1923 and
2.477. .o02 lbs. in 1922.
Sweet clover and alfalfa prices
continued unchanged from those pre-
vailing three weeks ago About $4,000
lbs, OF alfalfa arrived at New York
and Baltimore from Great Britain and
Italy Alfalfa exports for 1923 were
800. $40 lbs. compared with l.025,l2o
lbs. in 1922.

EGG PRODUCERS
REACH BIC GOAL
Association Goes Over
Top With Several
Thousand Hens

The Idaho-Oregon Egg Producers
Friday, the last day OF its probation
airy period, went ''over the top with
about $1,000 hens signed up with the
association. Since that time, contracts
have been slowly coming into the office
here and that number has been con-
siderably exceeded in the past few
days. 1t is now confidently predicted
that about 100000 hens will be affili-
ated with the association.
This number. it is said. insures the
success OF the association. The in
creased membership is already reflect
ed through increased egg receipts at
the local station. another candler
Monday having been added to these
regularly employed.
{. Ben Ross. Pocatelo mayor. came
to Caldwell Saturday afternoon to
make final arrangements with the local
association for handling southeastern
eggs through this association. Under
contract already agreed upon. eggs
OF this association and branch in the
Pocatello district are to be marketed
comparatively. thereby increasing the
volume OF business. Load transit
privileges. never obtained under the
old association. cannot stand in the
way OF merging shipments from Cald-
well and Pocatello. it is pointed out.
because the two loading stations are
in one state.

OLE ASPELUND MAKES
RECORD THAT. CAN'T BE BEAT

Otto Brabeck, the progressive CD
Republican Candidate for County
Assessor is telling the voters that if
he SHOULD be elected County Asses
sor, which will never happen, that he
will cut out the Deputy for six
months out of the year, and that he
will cut the assessments down to half
of the present valuations. Mr.. Bra
beck apparently does not have much
of an idea of the workings of the
assessors office when he makes such
statements. For Mr.. Brabeck's in
formation and the taxpayers we are
giving the following information and
the people can judge whether they
want to GO back to the good old days.
County Assessor Aspelund does not
put on any extra help to work until
March 1st, whereas if the office was
run without a deputy it would be nee
essary to put on at least three extra
helpers the first of january.
Ole Aspelund has reduced the cost
of operating his office from nearly
S22,OOO.OO in 1913. before Roosevelt
County was cut off, and over $500
in 1919, CIR less than $4,000 in 1924
He is the most economical officer this
County has ever had and will be re-
turned to office with an overwhelming
majority.
