and % st. Louis.

As the matters Of 4 successor TO Judge

the judge is pretty sick man, and may
be forced to retire from the bench. In

The Constitutional committee says
Statehood will save annually SIS, $50 to
the Taxpayers" and then proceed to give
Us the figures for it. They say the total
cost Of state government over the present
territorial government il or will be
S53,760, but by changing the System Of
county government, as proposed by the
constitution, the officers Of each county
will be paid by fees instead Of salaries,
thus saving to the state annually Sl09,.
$50. Now ] would like to ask the
committee who pays those fees, the
people Of Idaho or the people Of Canada?
Isn't this move one Of those cunning
subterfuges Of the republican party 20
often practiccd in the last twenty Eve
years to tax the people directly without
the dear people knowing it? 1t the
people Of Idaho pay the fees the 500,
05O would strictly belong to the burdens
Of state government, though not paid in
the way Of direct taxes. The salaries
proposed By the new state officers would
be very reasonable in wealthy state, but
arc hardly in proportion to the standing
Of the tax. payer 10 Idaho We have
men among us following the pillow, who
would make creditabls governors, who do
not make, annually, above their necessary
expenses, two hundred dollars. Other
men OF ability delving in the mines who
could not pay their taxes il mines were
taxable. Yet some papers are already
saying thst the salaries proposed are too
low to maintain the dignity and reputa-
ton of a state government. II fine
clothes and bacchanalian bauquets ar.

Of the state, perhaps not. 10 the earlier
history Of the government honesty and

THE TERRY TRAGEDY.

The preliminary hearing Of Deputy

justice Of the peace At Stockton on
Wednesday next. A strong effort will

affair. Naels says he is confident that
Terry drew back his hand after striking

to carry, ~ be onco made an affidavit
that hc always went armed. Think he
Was armed. It is the theory Of those
about the United States marshal's Office
that Mrs. Terry when she threw herself
on her husbands body, took a weapon
from him, although when the body was
searched no weapon was found.
