in making living while improving

The county commissioners OF
each county in which the lands
must be irrigated should, at their
spring term, fix the maximum rate
per inch which all persons, corpor-
atoms and companies will be
allowed to charge for water during
the ensuing irrigating season, also
fix the dates between which they
will be required to furnish water to
parties wishing the same, provided
said parties wishing same make
payment or tender of the proper
amount for the water to be fur
nished.
The commissioners should care
fully examine into the cost of con-
struction, operation and location of
all canals, bitches, conduits and
reservoirs, and adjust the rates to
be charged accordingly, as it would
be impossible for them or the legis-
lature to adopt a uniform price and
do justice to all parties, as it must
necessarily take more money to
build some canals than others.
Now l have merely given a syn
opsis of my views on this most
important subject, as detail would
make the article too long for your
patience and the space allowed.
The next important question to
the people is the application of the
most rigid rules of economy in the
administration of the state and
comfy governments, that the taxes
may not become too .burdensome
before we have more population
and more property to assist us in
keeping up our necessarily heavy
expenses of statehood, to say moth
ing about the jobs and schemes
which are sure to be attempted in
many ways to fitch money from
our pockets at-the coming session
of the first state legislature.
The utmost vigilance should be
used in framing laws for the loca-
ton, preservation and disposal of
all lands granted to the sta to by
the general government for educa-
tional and other purposes, and the
application of the proceeds to the
various funds.
/ am in favor Of establishing by
law the labor and irrigation bureau
according to the provisions of Arti-
Gle XIII, state constitution which,
l think, will be highly beneficial to
all laboring people of the state.
am also in favor of the Austria
liam ballot system, which has given
satisfaction to all honest men
wherever adopted.
Now, as we are a state, it may
not be out of place for me to ask
the farmers and laboring people
few questions on national affairs,
which immediately concerns them
and their welfare in the future.
If the protective policy is benefi-
cial to the farmers, why, after
nearly thirty years trial, should
they owe on mortgages the stapen-
dous sum of So, 450, 100000, and in
the same time their lands have
deprecated in value thirty pei
cent?
Why is it beneficial to them tc
produce $5OO,000,O00, surplus,
which they cannot use nor sell in
this country, yet are prohibited
under severe penalties from selling
or exchanging with any other arti
Giles which they can. both sell anG
use?
Why, if protection is geodfor the
farmers, are there 100000 of them
arrayed against it in one body and
increasing every day at wonder
full rate all over the east?

Parallel Between Reid and Clagge /

Rarallef Between Reid ana ClaggeE
Wallace Press.
"Then came the speaker of the
evening, the Hon. James w. Reid,
of Lewiston, Nez Perez county,
Idaho. With a handsome and
commanding presence, and rich
sonorous and powerful voice, he
enlists close attention from the first
word, and his language flows
strong, steadily, fiuently and; elo-
quently from his lips. No vituper-.
alton or islvective, no abuse or Maud
but proof, facts and logic, set in a
frame of words so strong, that con-
viction was carried with it. No
appeal was made to party passion;
it was presentation of the record,
and such record that the Repub-
licans present had to blush for
their party, Mr.. Reid did not dig
up the dead past; he breathed new
life and being into the living
present"
HThe Hon. William H. Claggett,
the silver tongued orator of the
Cour d'Alene, must give way to
Hon. James w. Reid, of Lewiston,
over in Nez Perces. Mr.. Reid is
the Henry Clay of the North" not
Judge Claggett. Claggett may
ornament his speech with beauti-
full figures, and construct rainbows
to span the intellectual heaven,
but Reid Games along with the
simplicity of Goethe and appeals
with the power of Webster to the
manhood of the people. There is
a wide difference between the
extract of a flower and the flowers
perfume. Reid represents the
extract, the substance; Claggett,
perfume, which enjoyed for a
moment, disappears forever. Reid
enchains and convinees; Claggett
pleases, and that is all; he is bril-
liant, like the fash of a falling star
as it passes. through space; every
thing is lit up beautifully for a
moment, than, q more profound
darkness reigns. Not so with Reid
the impression he makes is endur-
ing; it is carried away, talked
about, wondered at, considered,
accepted. The Cpur d'Alene PEG.
pie ought to feel better for having
heard Reid, for he has shown them
that a good political speech can be
made without an appeal to passion
and prejudice"
