A FAIR DEMAND.

A petition was circulated to-day,
praying the Legislature to increase
the pay of the Commissioners of Altu.
ras county from 5000 to $500 per an
mum. 1t was very generally signed.
The proposition embodied in the
petition is fair one, as, during the
past two years, the county business
has increased to such an extent that it
demands great deal of time for
which 5000, the salary allowed at
present, does not begin to pay. Dur
ing the next two years the county bus
mess will be still further increased,
and even 5000 will hardly pay wages
for the actual time occupied by the
Commissioners in attending to it.
The increase of pay should be al
lowed by unanimous vote.

Though Winter Has But Just Begun,
We Seem to be on the Eve Of Spring.
Many indications which have Away.
been accepted as infallablc are noted
At present as foretelling the speed,
opening of spring. If the trappers
Indians and mossbacks Of northern
ATTITUDES arc to be relied upon there
will be mild weather until spring.
The evidences upon which they base
their representations are the thick
ness of the bark on certain trees, the
shade OH the white sage, the combina-
ton of the planets, the com, S
course, and the berry crop, as also the
appearance in the valleys of ground
hogs and in the hills of badgers.
This latter innovation on the customs
of wild animals is something hereto
fore unknown, as in Idaho the badgers
always hole up in October and do not
again appear on the hills until the
last of March or first of April. The
instinct of the animal guides it in the
time for leaving its winter home, and
it never has been known to come ut
OF winter quarters until spring was at
hand. AT present the prospectors and
timbermen report that innumerable
badgers are out and disporting upon
the slopes of the hills, rolling and
playing in the sunshine, and have
thrown up fresh burrows of dirt in
every direction, as they always do in
the spring. If this is reliable indi-
cation then spring is at hand, on Wood
River. This is unaccountablc, unless
It may be occasioned by the railroad
entering the Territory. This circum-
stance upset the county vote, and is
possibly also responsible for the marked
change in our climate.

Totals .....4S.S2I


These figures are i'm broad contrast with
those to be found undel, the old reciprocity
treaty with Canada. From July 1, 1856,
to March II, 1866, under that treaty, we
imported from there So, 5s4, 0S2 worth of
wheat, and 81, 49s, 1874 of wheat flour, guam
titles not stated total value of $S.0S :
9O6 in less than nine months In 1865 the
last full fiscal year under the treaty, these
imports were 1.S04,717 bushels of wheat
and 5,434, 427 cwt. Of flour, the two being
equal to 16, S31 1852 bushels of the grain
So soon as the treaty was terminated the
free admission of agricultural produce was
at an end. Then the duties of 20 cents per
bnshel on wheat and 20 per cent on the
value of flour went into instant effect. A
large decline at once took place in the i'm
port quantities. The immediate operat ion
OF the duties was to enable the Western
farmer to compete successfully with his
Canadian rival for the possession of the
eastern market, in which ever since he has
had growing ascendancy, as is just and
right, and as the following statistics irldi-
cate:

IMPORTS of Wheat and Wheat Flour into

Here are only s,945, OILS bushels of wheat
imported from Canada IN .6re gears after
the abrogation of the reciprocity treaty,
whereas 1881, 652 bu shells were imported
m one gear under the treaty. Our farmers
got the benefit of the difference, and the
difference clearly res ulted from substitu-
ting tariff protection against Canada for
free trade with Canada.
Let the duties OH wheat and flour be
abolished. then Canadian farmers would
take away from United States farmers the
latter's home market for at least forty
four million bushels of wheat-a market
now rendered secure by our tariff. What
would be the effect of adding fortyfour
million bushels to the annual surplus of
this country for export 1t is conSpicu-
ously plain that, i'll such case, the price
OF wheat would decline
