How The Dseislon Was Received

How the Decision Was Received
at MoMfnnvi1le.
New Era, i6.l
Our Circuit Court had just ad.
journed when the news of the death
of the 1908 was telegraphed to this
Office. An extra was Immediately
issued announcing the fact. A good
crowd Of country people we're in town,
and when the glad news went out on
the streets among them there was a
general hand shaking for JOY. Faces
that had been long and gloomy were
lighted up by a knowledge of the fact
that the people we're yet to be free.
0ur colored people caught the in.
lection, and at night brought out their
brass band and serenaded Colonel
Savage at his Office. The "old man Of
the mountains" and war horse Of
Democracy and low taxes was called
for and responded in a neat little
speech. The colored people have not
been l~istless or Indifferent spectators
to the great fight that has been wagiug.

We are having complaints from
farmers, merchants and others on the
st. Francis river, saying that their
mail is a farce, delusion and a snare.
Someill- advised persons recommended
to the p~ostofice authorities at Wash
ington that the towns and plantations
along this river could be better sup
piled with mail by land than by water.
Consequently the river service was
taken off and a land service substi-
tuted. This service some say was
worse than nothing; it came and went
when it got ready, and sometimes was
not ready at all. The merchants re-
monstrated with the postofice people
at Washington and asked for some
sort of reliable mail service. The
p~ostof6ce department then gave a
contract to run a mail once a week
between Helena and Wittsburg, thus
placing us at the mercery Of the Mis-
sissipi river boats. Nine-tenths Of the
trade Of thisriver is with Memphis, yet
their letters aud orders for supplies
take a week and sometimes over to
reach Memphis. If a merchant
at Memphis writes a letter
to a st. Francis river
postofice, that letter reaches Helena
say on a Tuesday morning, but the
st. Francis mail boat left the evening
before: that letter remains at Helena
until the next Monday, and the same
with letters from the st. Francis to
Memphis.
The st. Francis river boats are now
carrying the Little Rock railroad mail
to Madison. They leave regular every
day. Now, why don't P. o. d. send
the river mail by this route? These
people say they get the Memphis daily
papers every day. but it takes a week
and over to get their letters.
We know nothing personally about
this confusion, but it looks very much
as though it was another blow struck
at the commerce Of Memphis. Would
it not be we'll for the pos;ofice de.
partment to look into this matter auc
give such orders as will insure a quick
and speedy service. The ghouls were
abroad, aud they succeeded in soaring
the late Postmaster General James
We want the service from Memphis
and not from Helena.

A Case or Amanement.

Mr.. Eugene Kelly, who is well
known in Nashville as the chairman
Of the Tennessee bondholders' COM
mittee, had this to say to a Tribune
reporter:
II am perfectly amazed at the deci-
sion of the court. The committee
felt confident that it would be in favor
Of the bOndholders. The suit brought
by the committee against the railroad
companies is pending in the United
States Supreme Court, and now, Of
course, the committee will press that
suit to a final hearing. 1t will be
probably a long time before a decision
Of the question will be reached. In
regard to a special session of the Ten
nessee Legislature, | have no infOrma.
ton. | think it likely that the Gov
ernor may call an extra session. The
Legislature is the same that passed
the law which is now declared un-
constitutional, but exactly what
action it would take, if called to-
gether, [ cannot say. | presume the
Governor will be interested in having
the Legislature take some further
action, because his term will expire, |
think, this year. There has been no
meeting OF the bondholders' commit
tee since the decision was made pub
lie, and | do not know
that there is now anything for the
committee to do. Of course the pur-
port of the decision was known by
some people in Wall street several
days ago. The decline of the bonds
was the result of knowledge and not o.
mere fear. The Tennessee men have
beaten us for the third time. They
knew undoubtedly that the decision
was to be against US and used their
knowledge to their advantage.

A Couple Of "Times" Paragraphs Go.

Last winter, it will be remembered,
an item published by the TINES in
relation to the bear seen, one evening,
in the streets of Haley, was very gen.
orally copied by the illustrated press.
And now comes the Illustrated Po-
lice News of the 9Th instant with a
half-page illustration based upon the
following paragraphs Of Sawtooth
letter, written for, and published in,
the TINES of July 5:
We've had a boom in the gulch.
The 1st Of July, last year, there was
only narrow mountain trail, and no
wagons had ever been seen in the
camp. To-day the streets are busy
with freighters and trains of all de-
scriptions. One year ago there was
only one store, one meat market and
a couple Of saloons. To-day twenty
saloons grace the broad, main street,
four general supply stores, two black
smith shops, two meat markets, two
barber shops, eight or ten restaurants
and lodging-houses, several real es-
tate and law offices, three assay offices
and one home made furniture shop,
where, by the way, they turn out some
very nice-looking furniture.
"There is employment in and around
Sawtooth for at least two hundred
men. Comparing Sawtooth this year
with last, the young men should come
in for share of mention. Last year,
long boards and duck suitings were
the fashion. Recently several families
have come to town, and among them
are some very charming young ladies'.
AS soon as this was known the young
men commenced stroking their long
neglected chins, and using razors, and
soap, backing boots, and putting on
billed shirts. Really the BARRIERS should
pay the young ladies royalty on new
business. There is some talk of hav-
ing ball"
Like the other item above referred
to, this will Of course he copied in
several other pictorials of wide circu-
lation, and this section thus receive a
good deal of gratuitous advertising
among the "bone and sinew' which,
after all, is really the only reliable
foundation Of all thriving commune
ties.

AN IMPORTANT QUESTION.
Are Employers Responsible for the Taxes
Of their EmplOyeSS

No decisive steps have yet been
taken to test the constitutionality OF
the law requiring mine-owners and
other employers to pay the taxes OF
their employees. The practice in this
Territory has heretofore been this /:
Tax collectors obtained from employ
ers the number of men in their en-
ploy and gave them a tax receipt for
each employe. AT the ensuing pay
day the taxes were deducted from the
pay of the men, and turned over to
the tax collector.
A couple of weeks ago VIM. G..
Seamands, Deputy Tax Collector,
went to Bullion to collect taxes, when
the miners held meeting and refused
to permit their employers to pay their
taxes for them. They did not object
to paying taxes, but claimed that the
Assessor or his deputy should collect
from them individually.
An agreed case was made up to
test the constitutionality of the law
before Judge Prickett, and Colonel
Wall was selected as respondent.
The case was to have been heard
yesterday or to-day, but Colonel Wall
having been called to Salt Lake last
Saturday, another respondent had to
be secured. Mr.. Hussey, who was in
town yesterday, agreed to respond,
and new set of papers was made out,
but Mr.. Hussey returned to Bullion
before they could be served. They
are completed, however, and to-day
Mr.. Seamands went up to serve them.
1t is therefore likely that the case
will come to trial before the present
term of Court expires. The amount
Immediately involved at Bullion is
between $4,000 and $4,000. The
case is in Court. See proceedings

A gentleman who arrived from Den
yer yesterday, says that last Thurs
day, when he left, the Exposition was
open, but none of the exhibits were
complete. The Idaho exhibit was
not any further advanced than many
of the others, but specimens were
coming in by every train. The space
allotted to Idaho by the Exposition
authorities is scarcely IA feet square,
and is shamefully insufficient and out
Of proportion to that given to Utah,
for instance. All the counties of Col
orado have much more room than the
Territory of Idaho. Utah's space Is
about twenty times as large as that
Of Idaho. The room allotted to Idaho
would not even have sufiiced for the
Wood River exhibit, but the Union
Pacific officials kindly yielded up a
part of their space to Mr.. Onderdonk,
our Commissioner, who thus secured
room enough to place his specimens,
at any rate.
Many exhibits are in pavilion5
erected in the building, which are very
elegantly upholstered. Gunnison
county will have the finest pavilion,
the upholstering of which will cost
$4,000. The Idaho pavilion will be
quite plain, and cost less than one.
tenth of that amount. But our dis
play of ore will be equal to anything
in the line of lead ores, both in pain,
of value and freedom from foreign
matter or waste. On this account il
will doubtless secure a great deal Of
attention.
A special feature of our exhibit is
the neat cards written with shading
pen by Hon. E. b. True. These card
state the name of the mine whenc,
the specimen comes from, the ASA,

Most of the visitors to the expos
