Judge Quarles, of lloise, who has lust returned from a trip to the north ern part of the slate, brings the Infor mation that the people of that section of Idaho are netting seriously interest ed in the taxation question. A few of the taxpayers of Moscow called a meeting a few nights ago for the purpose of discussing the matter of organizing a taxpayers' league. The call was responded to by over 300 cltl ens of that place. The result of the meeting was the organization of a league, with the election of a full set of officers, and the appointment of u committee to In crease the membership, as well as to take up the matter of encouraging the formation of similar throughout the state. to each supervisor in his county. In his letter to good road workers. Sec retary Thielsen says: "Following the line adopted at the last annual convention held In Salem In December, 1904, It has been decid ed to confine the discussion and pa pers, so far as practicable, to a single line, rather than to scutter over the various phases of the good roads ques tion, and this time having in view the great preponderance of earth roads and the certainty that this prop osition must continue, though perhaps In a diminished degree, for many years, we will take up the subject of how best to build and maintain earth roads. It Is believed that the discussion of this question will be of very great practical value to all who are prac tically connected In any manner with building and maintaining roads." The purpose of the organization is I The policy of the board Is to buy to secure a better method of assess- s many statu warrants and school ment, so thut all property that should bonds as possible, u mothflU which Is be taxable may oe marie to bear Its State l.aml Money In Boml.-i. The register of the state board of land commissioners has, during the past six months, handled over $600, 000 of the people's money. The reg ister's foes for the quarter which end ed June 30 aggregated $14,392.49. This magnificent record promises to be surpassed during the succeeding six months, both In the matter of fees and the matter of money handled. The growth of the state's land business Is very rapid, and the office, while at present Illy equipped to handle It, has still made a remarkable record for accuracy and expedition. At the last regular meeting of the board the register was instructed to organizations' invest J40.000 of the board's surplus funds In buying Idaho school bonds.

The league willendeavor to build Itself up to the point where its strength will enable It to compel the same assessment of railroad and tele phone companies that Is made on the property of Individuals, and thus se cure a reduction on the number of mills levied for taxation.

That the Pacific & Idaho Northern railway1 now extending from its ter minus at Council, 60 miles from this city, to the north, Is destined to be the connecting link between certain transcontinental lines of railway there seems to be no further evidence of doubt, says a special from Wclscr to the Boise Statesman. That it will con nect with the Northern Pacific in the near future there is no doubt. A sur veying party is now in process of or ganltzation to survey a line from the present terminus of the road's exten sion to connect at Grangeville or somewhere in that section x with the Northern Pacific. The surveying corps will be In charge of one of the best locating en glneers In the west, who nearly 10 years ago ran a line over the projected route for the 1'nlon Pacific when it was figuring on extending Its line to Lewiston.

The famous automobile track be tween Coulter and Bend Is not being extensively used at the present time. The machines are housed and the road Is in some parts almost overgrown with weeds, while many ranchers, not satisfied with the cattle guards put up by the company, have replaced their fences across the right of way.

RHEUMATISM BODY RAQKED WITH PAIN No other bodily suffering is equal to that produced by the pain of Rheu matism. When the poisons and acids, which cause this disease, become in trenched in the blood there is hardly any part of the body that tsnotaf iected. The muscles become sore and drawn, the nerves twitch and sting, i;ta iflam and swell, the bones ache, every movement is one of agony, and the entire body is racked with pain. Rheumatism is brought on by indigestion, stomach troubles, torpid Liver, weak Kidneys and a general Inactive state of the system. The refuse matter instead of passing off through nature's avenues is left to sour and form uric actd, and other acrid Doisons which are absorbed into the blood. Rheumatism does not affect all alike, in some cases n wandering form ; it may be in the route that was outlined some years ago from this city to the coast through southern Oregon. The Pacific & Idaho Northern is re garded among railroad men as occupy ing a prominent position In the great fight for new territory that Is now on between several great railroad sys tems who are looking for outlets to the coast. The highest elevation that a railroad would have to cross between this city and the coast Is less than 5000 feet. is Now Extending .North. Tracklaylng was begun on the ex tension of the Pacific & Idaho North ern railway today. Eight and one half miles of grade is completed ready for the rails. Steel sufficient to lay 15 miles of track has been ordered. It Is the intention of the railway company to complete 15 miles of grade and lay the rails this falls.

Not the wealthiest, not the most learned, nor the idler but the man who has good health and works for his living. This truth is trite, but not trivial. Every man should guard his health as his most valuable posses sion. The more so because health is easier to retain than regain. Keep your grip on health by regular exercise, reasonable care in eating and requisite sleep. Take Beecham's Pills occasionally, to tone the stomach and keep the liver and bowels in good working order. And dont worry. Observe these simple rules and you will agree that the one who gets the most from life is The Man Who Uses EEGEiAG'S PILLS Sold Everywhere In Boxei. 10c and 9 He, About flfteon years ago I had a seTars attack of Bheumatum and could not work with any satisfaction.

THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., AMLAHIA, 1 1 PURELY VEGETABLE. Tuui'l llouso Iloml Election. The decision to build the new coun hmiKP was reached by the commis sioners at their first meeting last Jan uai v. The opinions of Fred Parker, prosecuting attorney at the time, anil the new Incumbent, Ira M. Kurtz, were that the commissioners could Incur an indebtedness over the pres ent Indebtedness to the sum of about f 100.000. In selecting plans, It was the desire of the commissioners to ktep below this amount. The matter was discussed at every meeting of the hoard and the necessary actions v.ere taken each time till the contract was finally i-t. The total cost ot the new building is to be about $x:i,fi00. Since Mr. Parker and Mr. Kurt!1. irave their opinion I'.enton county was cut off Yakima. This took away about $:i.(tuo.ooo from the assessed valua tion of Yakima. Then an Indebted ness, oot then considered, of over iii.oo. was Incurred. With these two Items combined the limit of Indebted ness would be reached when between J60.000 and $6B,000 hail been expend ed for the new building. This would If.nv.. u difference of about !!:!, 000 Indebtedness that could not he legally contracted for. This slate of affairs will not last long. As soon as the 1905 iv,.q hei-Hme an asset, the limit will h mis.d sufficiently high, but the commissioners have always felt that It would be best to give the people a ,.h,,. . ir. vote on the court noun question.
