excuse me for troulliiiB you uguln. l't
I feel its though I must enter a protest
iiealuM the way you tell about the
pilie cf land on Nob Hill. You Kay In
last nlKhl's paper thut land sold us
high as J'Jdoti pef ncre. Now It Is no
more ace-irate id say that than It
would te to say that a lot In the -:ity
sold fi r $100.0(10 when it had a build
ing on It worth J.T5.000. The truth
of the matter Is that this land thut
sold for J20U0. had a good bearing or
chaid on It worth three times as much
as the land. Hut the law does not al
low an orchard to be assessed, o the
assessor picks out n few tracts of land
with bearing orchards on, that has
.nl.l fri a hluh figure; then he assesses
the ba'ance of the land on the assump
Hon that It Is worth Just as much. Of
,,i-... ihe assessor tells us that Is not
his fault: that we have no orchards In
bearing. Put "1P reason we do not
have them Is that they do not grow up
like a mushroom In one night.
Tn show what rt turns we get from
the la.id when It has not a good heal
ing orchard on it. take my own case:
I have 16 acres here: my valuation is
$10,000 beside Improvements, which

It seems to me. Mr. Fditor, beenuse
some cf the Frultvulc farmers tried to
hold up the railroad company for
strawberry land (I could have sold
them struwuorry land for $300 per
acre) Is a very poor reason for hold-In--;
up the Nob Hill farmers.
Now a few words about the market
value of land here. It Is worth 11000
or $2000 when you can get some per

Highest Peak.
Mountain climbing Is one of T. C.
Bacon's diversions while- nway on a
camping trip with Professor . Ray
Oreen of Guthrie high school, Okla.,
says the Boise Statesman. Both are
eager geologists and keen for adven
ture as well, and yesterday word
came from Ketchum, Ida., near where
they are In camp, that tliey have ef
fected a successful ascent of Mount
Hyndman, the highest peak In the
stnte and though not as high as Pike's
Peak, by far more difficult and dangerous.
The ascent was begun with a team
of horses, the two adventurers driving
up the gradual slope until the nature
of the ascent and of the passes neces
sitated resorting to mules. Mounted
In this fashion, several miles more
were left behind and below, until
finally, with 1500 feet still to go, they
abandoned the animals and bravely
commenced a hand-over-hnnd ascent.
through some of the most treacher
ous crags and Juts In the world.
The long climb consumed many
hours and when flnnlly the two reach
ed the very summit they had accom
plished what but a single Vrty of
mountaineers has ever done before.
The previous ascent whs made by
officials of the United States geologi
cal survey over 10 yenrs ago, and
since that' time It Is not known au
thentically that the ascension has
been successfully accomplished by any
but these two men.
The height of the pesk is 12,078
feet, according to Section Director
Wells, of the weather bureau. T. C.
