Which Side are You on?
BY ANNIE II HEN DERSON.

BY ANNIE II HEN DERSON-
There was war In the land and each brave heart
beat high
And thousands went forth for their country to die;
But words fail to tell OF the fear and dismay
Which swept the small village OF W one day,
When the enemy's forces marched into the street,
And their own valiant soldiers forced TO retreat,
Such hiding such running and trembling with
lear
When, 10, in the midst of it all did appear
Grandmother Gregg, feeble and old
Coming out from her cottage, courageous and
bold!
She faced the intruders. who marched through
the land,
Fercely shaking the poker she held In her hand.
How foolish" her friends cried, provoked at her
too,
"Why grandmother, what did you think you
could do?
81 was bound they should know rhich side / rcGs
on"
Now Just tell this true little story to you
To show you there's something the tredkest can do
In the fierce raging fight 'twixt the right and the
wrong,
The heat of the battle is borne by the strong,
Or clumsy, and graceless the weapon you WELD.
Oh! fail not until the last enemy's gone
To go forth and show which side you are on.

THE people of Idaho, and especial
ly the county officials elect and the
Boards of County Commissioners have
been considerably puzzled, mixed
and uncertain in regard to clause
in the State Constitution providing
that call officers elected at such elec-
tons, shall within thirty days after
they have been declared elected, take
the oath required by this constitution,
and give the same bond required by
the law OF the Territory to be given
in cases of like officers of the Terri
tory, district or county, and shall
thereupon enter upon the duties of
their respective Offices" The above
quotation is section 12 of the consti-
tuition. The act of Congress admit
ting Idaho annulled that part of sec-
ton IL to the effect that officials shall
take their seats thirty days after be-
ing declared elected, but Attorney
General Roberts says that act has no
effect upon the rest of the section
and that all officers who failed to
qualify within the required time have
forfeited the Offices to which they
were elected. He quotes authority.
The County Commissioners of this
county called special meeting and
cited the officials elect to appear and
file their bonds and qualify. which all
did. District Attorney Dunton took
the same view of the matter after.
wards given by the Attorney Gener-
al. The Dist. Attorney and Commits
sioners were subjects of considerable
good natured ridicule, but they have
been sustained by high authority,
and now the laugh comes from their
side. 1t is said those who laugh last
laugh best, and it is true in this case
at any rate. Many county officials
failed to appear within the prescribed
time to qualify and file their bonds
A number of officials elect of Ad;
county, as we'll as in other counties
will be shut out if the Attorney Gen
erals position is sustained to the let
ter. We think, however, in a case O
this kind, where County Commission
ers and officials elect honestly took
wrong view of the matter, it is bette
that plain justice prevail than stric
and unjust legality.

Taxation is subject that should
engage the earnest attention of Ida
hos first State Legislature. The
change from Territorial to q State
government will call for the expendi.
ture OF sums Of money largely in ex-
cess of the requirements of former
years, and the Legislature will be
called upon to make appropriations
accordingly. The money so appro-
priated will have to be raised BY tax
alton, or SO much OF it at least as is
not borrowed. The question then to
be solved by the Legislature is, how
to adjust the burden--for burden it
will be, SO that it shall fall equally
upon every tax payer?' To do this it
will be necessary to levy tax upon
all OF the property in the State, no
matter what its nature or purpose.
The tendency Of the times is to seek
out reasons for the exemption of one
and another description of property
from taxation, and there is now large
amounts OF property in every State
in the Union which enjoys the pro-
lection of the law, but contributes
nothing, by the way Of taxation or
otherwise, towards maintaining a
State government. This is SO mani
fest an injustice that it should not
find an advocate in any Legislative
body. Every property owner is in-
terested, at least to the extent of the
value OF his property, in the mainten-
ance of the government of the State
in which he lives and which protects
him in the possession and enjoyment
of his property, and justice demands
that every such person be required to
contribute his pro rata towards the
support of a good and efficient gov
ernment.
But it will be argued that certain
enterprises about to be set OH foot
| will be abandoned or taken out ol
the State if not given the inducemeul
of few years exemption from taxa
ton as an encouragement to proceed
This argument refutes itself in three
ways: ~ The little amount Of :
mans tax neither affects his busines:
profits nor his income; (2) no mar
voluntarily abandons all enterpris,
that he is convinced will pay; (O i
is better that projected enterprise
that does not hold forth fair prom
ise of remuneration be abandoned
than that it be proceeded with unit
it end III failure; because every bust
ness failure recorded in a communit'
discourages other enterprises the
may be had in contemplation, an
checks progress in just that much
The just rule, then, is to exempt n
one, oppress no one, but tax all alike

with the requirements of the public

BOISE CITY DEMOCRAT: When the
editor of the Idaho Democrat was yet
IN his early teens and the "devil in
a country newspaper Office, the learn
ed editor of the concern, by way of
encouragement, detailed him to write
up fire that had just broken out.
Over this recognition of his talent and
superior fitness to perform the duty
assigned him he felt more elated than
did Stanley when sent by Bennett to
look up Livingstone, and he wrote an
awfully pretty description of the fire.
He headed it with "a Terrible Holo-
caust," and graphically depicted the
incidents in which he was lavish in
the use of such figures as "the licking
flames shot athwars the sky "the
dome of night lit up with a lurid
glare" "the brazen notes of the
alarm bell vibrated through the cir
cumambient air, 'the sickening odors
of roasting flesh made faint the
dauntless heroes who battled for su-
premacy with the merciless and de-
vastating element" and SO on to the
end. 1t WAS dandy report from ex-
ordium to peroration, and believing
it to be a magnificent scoop on the
rival sheet which would not be issued
for several days, the writer with pal
pitating heart and an air of triumph
passed the article over to the editor
He rapidly scanned the half dozen

The railway mail service OF the
United States has during the past n
wears been increased at most won
derful rate. Fully 25,50o miles of
new road were added. The greater
amount of new routes was in the
West. BY attaching mail cars to
the fast-limited trains all over the
country much more expeditions de-
livery was secured. New York and
San Francisco have thus been brought
a day nearer to each other.
