ITY STOCKHOLDERS
The stockholders cf the Lewiston
Community Center will meet at the
community center on Thursday eve
ning. March 2 4th at 8 o'clock. All
are urged to attend.
In the opinion of F. C. Radke and
Clark Jeary, special counsel for the
state board of equalization and as
sessment, "the violent effort of the
attorney general to bolster up his
position his appeal from the valu
ation placed on pipe lines) by the
acumulation of hypertechnical ob
jections to the procedure of the
board" should meet with summary
rejection at the hands of the supreme
court.
The" board maintains that its fig
ure was reached after taking evi
dence and from personal sources of
information, and that it represents
a valuation as nearly as is humanly
possible on a parity with other tax
payers. The case is to be argued
next Monday. The board defends the
increase as Just and proper, and says
in conducting the hearing it was
not required to follow judicial pro
cedure. It is contended that in the ab
sence of evideu.ee to the contrary,
public officials will faithfuly and
legally perform their duties; that
the board is a creature of the con
stitution, made up of executive of
fices, and operates under a self-executing
section of that document;
that the legislature cannot interfere
with the performance of those du
ties, and that tbe board can act as
it pleases insofar as it does not vio
late the constitutional inhibition;
against taking property without duej
process of Law., j
TRIES TO SAVE TPS. JTJDD
Phoenix. Bare possibility exist
ed that the house to house canvass
her aged father is conducting in be
half of Winnie Ruth Judd is not
the tragic "wild goose chase" it ap
pears. Legally, there would be no
significance to the petition to com-j
mute his daughter's sentence f rom j
hanging to life imprisonment, even
should the seventy-three year old j
Rev. K. J. McKinneH'obtain 20.000 j
signatures. Actually, in the opinion j
of seasoned political observers, the;
petition may carry some weight, if aj
considerable number of signatures j
are obtained. I
Asked about the progress of his;
pilgrimage, the aged man replied:;
"Please don't ask me for particu-j
lars. It is slow work. There's only;
myseif to do it. It's too early toj
say. I will say that there are many
persons who believe me when I tell
them that I know nry poor girl best, j
and I know she couldn't have done
a thing like this, had she been inj
her right mind." j
CONVICTED IN KIDNAP CASE j
St. Louis. The second man in the
Alexander Berg kidnaping case was
convicted Sunday when a circuit
court jury returned a verdict ot
guilty against Edward Barcume. ex
convict, and fixed punishment at
twenty-five years in the penitentiary.
The state had asked the death pen
alty. Two cinvictions. one plea of
guilty and one mistrial have result
ed since the arrest of five men for
the abduction last November of the
wealthy St. Louis fur dealer, who
was held prisoner four days in a
fiat before being released after a
promise cf $50,000 ransom, which
was never paid. Charles Heuer, al
leged leader of the kidnapers, was
convicted in an earlier trial and his
punishment fixed at ninety-nine
years in prison.
