Fragments from D W Davis at Rupert argue Idaho could become tax free by converting state lands into interest bearing securities. Selling 100000 acres in 1916 could yield a 324 million fund in a century at 6 percent, or 12.9 million annual income at 4 percent, vastly surpassing current taxes.
The letter argues Idaho can reach a taxless state in eleven years under a new plan, while a Northwest apple industry piece defends federal plans to market fruit. It cites Growers Council, Bassett and Kerr, calls for industry unity and market stabilization to avoid dependence on a few buyers.

He argues the move proves Republican tariff principles and highlights revenue losses and harm to U S sugar industries from Democrat sugar policy shifts.
A fragment discusses a Democratic tariff law reducing revenues and harming U S industry while aiding foreign competitors. It quotes Republican defense as justified and mentions domestic turkeys in a caucus. The text also references Mrs. A H Ramey of Fruitland Idaho and a rejection of caucus decision.
