In selecting one be particular to see

funds whcrcwith To carry Indiana, and
he received five thousand dollar re-
SponScs from such patriots as Samuel
Allerton and George VI. Pullman. lie

is no longer under the necessity of

remains the acute politician, for he is Il
candidate for reelection and is still

isnow: through his favor, attorney gen
eral of the United States.
1t is cheap politics To harvest APP
plause for commencing suits against

THE COURT DECISION.
Tho People Are the Tribunal That Must
Finally Decide.

-
point made against the validity of the
Mckinley bill, and does it in "a style
which became familiar enough in 1875.
Nothing else was generally expected,
though it was supposed by some that
the court would not go so far as to
assert the validity Of n clause attempt
ing TO give the president power TO de-
clare a levy of taxes not already levied
by law. This it does, however, but
the decision in no way affects the ques-
ton. The supreme court is tribunal
of last resort only when it is right.
When it is wrong appeal lies from its
decisions TO the power and the right
whose creature ii is-the power and the
right OF the people, who are above the
wrongful findings of any tribunal what
ever.
As the decision is reported by tel
egraph the court holds that the Nc
Kinley bill does not authorize the pres
ident to levy retaliatory taxes, but
prescribes taxes to go into effect under
certain prescribed contingencies. This
is an unworthy bubble. The clause
does prescribe certain rates Of taxation
on certain articles, but it does not levy
them nor make them operative. On
the contrary, coffee, teas and hides
being already untaXed, it removes the
taxes from raw sugar and molasscs,
leaving these articles untaXed alto
gether. Then it prescribeS certain
rates of taxation on these articles, but
does not tax them at all. Instead of
doing so it declares that the president
shall have power to levy taxes at the
prescribed rates after January |, 1892,
if he chooses to do so. These taxes do
not exist by legislative act. They have
no existence at all, There arc no such
taxes No legislative act has put them
in force and no date has been set by
Legislative act for them to go into force.
They do not exist nor can they ever
exist 10y Legislative act until such act is
passed putting them in force.
As every republican on the supreme
bench knows, as every one who watches
public affairs knows, the rcpub-
licans of the Reed congress passed this
clause because the constitution en-
plicitly provides that all such meas
ures as this must originate in the
house. and because they did not cX-
pect them to have a majority in the
succeeding house. Not wishing to de.
clare this levy of taxes outright. and
knowing that n democratic house
would never pass such q measure
they ATTEMPTED at once to cvadc their
own responsibility and to bind suc-
ceedinp congresses. because rs long as
the senate is republican the democratic
majority in the house cannot undo thi,
action bv which taxrs are tn he levied
by the president.

A Merited Endorsement.

We have always opposed drawing
party lines too close ip county matters,
and we are pleased to zee that in that
respect the two leading parties are in
accord. 1t is the onlt spirit which can
give us good and efIic3Ant officers.
The Republican pEt7, in endorsing
a. J. Younker for q second term, did
wisely. Very few men have that pecu-
liar temperament necessary to fit them
for commissioner. The average man is
either too obstinate or too easy-going to
listen to the numerous complaints of
tax payers and then do exactly the right
thing. 1t is the same with regard to
bills against the country. a commits
sioner should be good natured, but firm :;
should possess good Judgment and
should have the energy to investigate
the case of any who think themselves
unjustly treated. All of these qualities
are possessed by Mr.. Younker.
The September number of the Rocky
Mountain Collegian, published by the
students of the State agricultural col
lege at Fort Collins, was received this
week. The paper is a credit to the col
lege with one exception. The editor
should exercise greater scrutiny in the
selection of articles contributed by pro-
fessors of the college. Descriptions of
Spanish bull fights are hardly elevating
in morals.

Republicans Meet.

Tuesday afternoon last was the time
set for the Republican county conven-
tion, and the business was transacted
with dispatch without single hitch.
Chairman Clark called the meeting &c
order, and upon motion was made pre-
siding officer of the convention. David
Smith was called to the secretary's
desk, after which Messrs. Moulton
Coon and Adair were appointed COM
mittee on credentials. The latter re-
ported the following delegates entitled
to seats:

The lower precincts with eight votes
failed to send delegates.
Nominations for county judge beins
in order, Henry a. Wildhack was de
clared the nominee by acclamation.
The following resolution was then in
troduced and unanimously adopted:
Resolved. That this convention be,
lieveS it to be to the best interests OF
tax PAYERS of this county TO continue il
office of county commissioner Il mar
who has shown his eminent fitness fol
that position during the last three years
and we therefore endorse the nomina'
tion of A. j. iounker for commissioner
for the Third district"
The nominations of justices of the
peace and constaDles for the various
precincts were then taken up, but as the
list could not be completed, the matter
was left to the central committee by the
adoption of the following resolution:
Resolved, That the Republica,
county central committee be empOw
cred to fill all vacancies on the ticket
that now exist or may occur in county
or precinct officers, and the chairman
secretary and at least one other member
shall constitute quorum OF said com

Double Dealing.

The Peoples party never stop to think
to what end the course they are pursu-
ing will take them. While the aims Of
those who form the ranks of the party
are to do what to them seems just, they
are made the dupes of few leaders
who have lost caste with one or the
other of the old parties and whose only
hope for power lies with new party,
the lay members of which are not at all
posted in public affairs.
We do not believe there is Populist
in this county who understands the
platform of his party. That platform
endorses free coinage to catch western
votes, while it endorses the sub-treasurY
bill to get the support of the eastern
rural population. That sub-treasury
bill was introduced by Jerry Simpson,
of Kansas, and in section 10 of that bill
we find the following-taken from the
Congressional Record OF March IL, 1892,
page POOL:
Zone year from and after the passage
of this act. the coinage of gold and sill
yer coin above the denomination of %
cents shall cease, anu three years from
the date of the passage of this act, such
coin shall no longer he legal tender, and
the United States shall provide for the
redemption of all such coins at their
face value by exchanging them for legal
tender paper money, and manufacture
them into bars and keep them on sale"

publicans and Democrats in our mining
towns are desertiDg Weaver and return
