We do not pretend 10 know whether or
not the opinion Of the City Council-that
the rejected assessment is irregular, IN
equal and excessive-is correct. We do
not question the sincerity Of the opinion
Of the Council. The Assessors undOubt-
edlv think the assessment is as fair as 1t
was possible 70 make it. This difference
between the Council and the Assessors
w0uli undoubtedly extend throughout
the entire city If the assessments were
published. Without the facts on which to
base an opinion, expressions for or against
the fairness Of the rejected assessment are
mere speculations. Everybody, however,
who knows anything about city property
can form an opinion respecting the fair
ness Of the - per cent plan Of assess
ment. We think that the general YER
dict is that It is unfair and unjust.
1t has been alleged that the assessment
on which it is proposed 70 levy taxes for
next year is fun Of inequalities. The 20
per cent. plan makes these irregularities
more marked. There have been very con-
siderable changes in the value Of property
in the last year OF two. In some locall-
ties values have decreased, and IN others
they have very materially increased. 1t
is not difficult . find pieces Of property
assessed at their full value, and it is easy
70 find property that is not assessed at a
fourth Of its value. This being the case,
what Justice is there in the % per cent.
plan: II is stated that the rejected as
sessment increased assessments in the
southern part Of the city from 100 to 800
Der cent. and the opinion Of a property
owner in that section is that the increase
was not excessive. Why do the Council
think 1t sufficient 70 increase the assess
ment on this property only 20 per cent:
Are not the owners Ofthis favored property
as able 10 pay taxes as the owners Of prop
ertv that is taxed at about its market
value without the added % per cent.
The Council may grant reductions when
they are convinced that the addition Of 20
per cent. would be unjust, but they can
not bring about an equalization Of the
burdens Of taxation because they cannot
increase the assessments where they are
manifestly too low. Why could not the
Assessors have reviewed their work and
made notifications which would have
met the views Of the Council: MOdifica-
tons could have been made in few days
and then we should have had assessments
much more satisfactory than the 20 per
cent. plan will give us.

a. OnlcchoIder,s RemarkabIe 4

An OnicchoIder's Remarkable Act.
The Governor Of Idaho Territory has
suddenly become known to fame. a day
or two ago he returned 10 the United states
Treasurer his salary for the quarter end
ing the 1st Of last October and declines to
receive his salary for this quarter on the
ground that he has not been able to earn
il. This conduct created genuine surprise
in official circles i'm Washington, and no
doubt excited doubts as to the sanity Of
the Idaho man. The idea Of an official re-
fusing TO receive his salary because he had
not earned it was something not only I'M
heard Of but unthOught Of. The aim Of the
average official is to get his salary with
out earning it. To get something from
the government for nothing is regarded as
legitimate. Only a few days ago the
United States District Attorney for the
Western District Of Texas sent a memorial
10 the United States Senate, in which he
charged that the United States Judges
i'm Texas, while most industriously draw
ing their salaries, are, without valid eX-
cuses. falling 70 hold the terms OF their
courts as fixed by law. He also charges
that these Judges, as soon as they get
into Office, invariably proceed to appoint
their sons. sons-in-law, brothers, brothers
in-law and other relatives deputy clerks
and marshals without the remotest
thought Of their moral character, honesty
or capacity for the places. These Federal
Judges OF Texas are pretty fair samples of
the average ofhceholder. They have an idea
that the Offices belong to them, and that
they can use their pleasure about per-
forming their official duties. In Texas,
prisoners linger in Jail years without be-
ing able to get trial, simply because the
Judges don't hold court. A different sort
OF an Attorney General would awaken
them to a realizing sense OF their true 20
sition. The Republican party has been in
power too long. 1t ought to be turned out
FOR the reason that it is morally rotten, If
for no other. 1t would not be surprising
il the Idaho Governor should lose his po-
sition for having conscientious scruples
about receiving his unearned salary. His
action is a criticism on the whole office
holding crowd, and criticism isnOt relish
ed by those who are vulnerable.
