Largely With Matters Pertalnlnf
to Future Development.
BOISE. Ida, Nor. . When Idaho's
v 1 - r Afivanea It will he
M.franod with one of the moat In
tensive prosrammu for legislation to
... .Knur imrrnil development of
any body of Uw-inaaera In the history
of the state.
The bla; problem beforo Idaho today
Is to pare the way by sound, construe
i..i.inn for badly-needed de-
' velopment. which, while helpful ttn
state, will Indirectly suhibi m.
ernment in handUnc after-war prob
lems. The rreatest of these Is to pro
Tide suitable employment for as Ions a
period as possible for men encased in
trades and for common labor.
There Is belnc formulated ready for
presentation to the Legislature acts
that will call for needed appropria
tions that the wheels of Industry may
be put into motion again on public
works.
Large Appropriations 9os;kt.
One of these acts will ask for an ap
propriation sufficient to build and com
plete the two main wings to the new
capltol building;. Between 800.000 and
SS00.000 will be needed for this. Only
the main section of the bulldlnr now
stands.
Another proposed construction project
Is offered in the Soldiers Home, which
hnrnil to the rround a year apo. An
appropriation of lesa than 1100,000 will
erect a new edifice. Other state Insti
tutions will expoat the same liberality
shown them and by authorising; con
struction work of needed additions
other channels will be opened to meet
the demands of labor.
There la an urgent call for the com
pletion of highways. constructing
bridges at many points in the state and
of getting some of the lnigation
projects back on their feet.
Bis Problems at Isaac
The really big reconstruction work,
baring In Tiew preparation of present
unused land for returning Idaho sol
diers. Is the more mooted legislative
issue of alL Whatever Is done, solons
realize, depends greatly upon the acts
approved by Congress. ' However, ap
proval by the Idaho Legislature and
possibly the passage of state acts to
work out the programme will have to
be necessary.
All rights of men who entered the
service of their country from this state
have been safeguarded by he present
laws, so that when they return they
will find that they have been given
am Die nrotectlon.
What Governor-elect T. W. Davis
wtll recommend in his message to the
Legislature Is not known but Judging
from the stand he bad always taken
for Internal development It Is prob
able that he will advocate a liberal
policy consistent with the available re
sources of the state.
Legal Claim Is Repealed.
An echo of former campaigns In this
state was heard In the Supreme Court
during the week when T. C. Coffin
former asalstant Attorney-General,
made application for a recommendatory
Judgment for 111.600 to pay him for
legal services rendered the state In
the suit Instituted In Its name against
the National Surety Company on the
bond of O. V. Allen, ex-treasurer.- to re-,
cover the losses sustained when-the
latter embessled 173.000 state funds.
After Allen's confession and In
carceration In the state penitentiary
for a term of from five. to 10 years,
the state Instituted suit' against the
surety on Allen's bond. Coffin was
given charge of the case. When a
Judgment was secured and a settle
ment reached by which the state re
covered Its loss. Coffin submitted

BAKER. Or- Nov. 19. (Special)
The mtnlna- business near Baker la becoming-
active, one of the latest activi
ties being- the taking; over ef the old
Highland mine property by Harry M.
Quinn. and C G. Flanagan, of Seattle.
They Intend to install a modern flota
tion process for treating ores. There
. Is at present on the property a SO-ton
. capacity concentrating; plant which
wtll be discarded when the new ma
chinery is Installed. It is expected that
the new flotation process will save 94
per cent of the values. The ore on this
property runs over 90 per cent silver,
and if the plans of the owners mature.
it will develop into one of the beat
paring properties in the county.
x More than 7000 feet of development
work has been dona on the property
In the past and many thousand ton of
high value ore is in sight.
The high price of silver will doubt
less open up other properties of value
in the county.'At present Baker County
produces se per cent of the mineral
wealth of the state, according- to the
figures of Charles G. Tale, of the
United States mint at San Francisco.
The coming year looms bright for the
mining industry of the county, with
prospects of many of the old properties
being opened up and new ones de-veloped.

MARSHF1EXD. Or, Nov. 18. (Spe.
claL) Seattle Is holding: something un
der her hat, according to news which Is
current on Coos Bay and developed
within the past few days.
A short Item was printed recently
stating that "4000 ahlpyard - slackers
had deserted, now the war Is over, and
there la a shortage of help in the
yards." This Item referred to the yards
at Seattle. Information here Is that
the "slackers" are In the majority, pre
paring for a big boom on the Siberian
eastern coast, where rumors of rich
gold discoveries are rife.
It is claimed by parsons coming nere
from Seattle that a number of firms
are being established on the Sound for
the purpose, of exploiting the gold
diggings and of going into the vast
salmon fisheries on the Siberian coast
to open canneries and packing plants.
Puget Sound people who have been
here in the past week, recommending
shipwrights to seek employment with
the new rush, declare that fabulous sal
aries are being offered skilled me
chanics who can construct barges and
have knowledge of salmon fishing and
construction of buildings.
