Idaho Finds That the Fee System Was Cheaper for the State. ( State Treasurer Hastings has pre pared a statement of the fees receiv ed by the stenographers of the seven judicial districts of the state during the year ending April 1. The total fees from all districts amounted to only J1927.S3 for the year, says the Boise Capital News. It will be remem bered that the. last legislature placed ail stenographers on a salary basis, claiming that the fees collected were too great and should bo turned .into the state treasury. The fees from all the districts haye not been enough to pay one stenographer. The total fees from the first Judicial district were $617.67; second district. $236.58; third district, $151; fourth dltsrict. $385.15; fifth district, $148.- 30; sixth district. 224.13, and seventh district $165. The clerk of the supreme court dur Ing the same period collected $2548.15 or more than $600 In excess of the fees collected by all the Judicial districts. Stenographers formerly drew a sal ary of $1000 per year each and were allowed the fees earned. Under the new law thtfy draw $2500 each and the fees are turned Into the state. 1 FEDERAL INSPECTOR TOURS CENTRAL' OREGON. Dr. W. D. Mason Personally I aspect 126.000 Slioop Clips Are Free From Dust and Greese Buyers Bun? But Prices Low - Thinks Methods ' SlKHild Be Imnrovcd--Llttle Atten tion Pakt to Improving Breeds Dlp4ng Bencfloiai. Dr. W. D. Mason, federal stock In spector, and who was formerly sta tioned here, Is now In the city for the purpose of consulting with Dr. S. W. McClure, head of the bureau of ani mal Industry In the northwest. Since April 1 Dr. Mason has been In Sherman, Wasco and Crook coun ties Inspecting the sheep of that sec tion, and he has personally Inspected a total of 126,000 sheep. That the general conditions are good with the sheepmen Is declared by Mason, and he says that the clips this year will . be freer from grease and dust than In past seasons. During the past few weeks buyers have been busy In the Interior and the prices paid show a decided slump over those given last year. For yearl ing wethers $2.25 has been about the prevailing price, while $2.60 per head has been paid for mixed yearlings. Last" year the prices weer about $1 higher than this. Should Improve Method. Dr. Mason Is a graduate of the ag ricultural college of Iowa and has had experience In the stock sections of the middle states as well as In the west. Like Dr. McClure, he Is an advocate of more advanced methods of stock raising and believes that In the course of time sheepralslng In this state will become more on the basis of what It Is In Ohio and other middle states. When It becomes necessary for sheepmen to own their own ranges he holds that the most Intelligent methods possible should be used. At present practically no attention Is paid In Oregon to improving breeds and little attention is paid to mutton rais ing. At present there is no mutton In eastern Oregon and If a packing plant were now In operation In Port land there would not be enough live stock In the northwest to supply the plant. Dialing Wat Beneficial. While Inspecting the sheep of the Interior Dr. Mason found not a single band that was Infected with scab or ticks. This splendid condition he ascribes to the annual dipping to which all the sheep of the state were submitted last spring. Idaho Herder Killed. The 111 feeling aroused by the kill Ing of a dog by one of the herders of Castro Aldecocea's camp situated on Grimes creek, 18 miles from Idaho City, and the attempt on the part of another herder, Domingo Aresuma, and a brother of Castro's to wrestle the rifle use dto kill the dog from the camp of John Echebarrla & Co., cul minated in the death of Domingo. Are fcuma at the hands of Tomas Arrate about 5 o'clock Saturday afternoon, says the Boise Capital News. The intelligence of the shooting was brought to this c'ty about 6 o'clock Sundry morning by Victor Eehebnr ria, a camp tender at his brother's cnt'np. where the shooting occurred, and by Martin Legarlza, a herder of the camp, who stated that Arrate was at the camp awaiting the arrival of the officers, claiming that he killed Eresuma in self defense. Both out fits make their headquarters In Boise, which accounts for the fact that the two men came to Boise, a distance of 22 miles to Inform the sheriff's office Instead of riding to Idaho City, about 18 miles distant. The Public Schools of Germany. Consul-General Richard Guenther, of Frankfort, reports that there were 61.198 public schools In Germany In 1906, attended by 9.779,356 pupils, or 94 per cent of all German children of school age. leaving only 6 per .cent for all other schools, Including home training. Since 1901 the school at tendance shows an Increase of 9.1 per cent. During the same time male teachers show an Increase of 10.6 per cent and female teachers an Increase of 30.5 per cent. The annual average cost per pupil for public school edu-, cation has Increased from $11.20 In 1901 to $12 86 In 1906. The average number of scholars to each teacher was 68 in 1906, some having as high as 85 pupils and others as low as 33. Overcrowding in Scotland Is not so bad as It used to be. The proportion living more than four per room fell from 18.67 per cent In 1861, to 1.66 In 1901. V TONS OF ROCK ON HIM. Young Austrian Madicd to Pulp But StlU Lives. Spokane, May 20.
