The "aavice" given by the TIMES
has always been ia the int rest OF the
people. lite course has been consist
ent from its first issue. If its advice
had been followed, Elmore aud Lost
River would have been segregated in
1884. the county Indebtedness would
not be half as large as 1t is, aud al.

equitable division as soon as there

THE APPORIIONMENT OF THE
COUNTY DEBT.

There seems to be little doing. a.
Boise. in the matter of the apportion-
ment OF the Indebtedness of Al,uras
county among the four counties that
have benefited from its spoliat,on.
The problem seems to be unso:vable,
no less than three Legislatures having
attempted its solution.
Yet it cannot be such a very diff
cult matter to justly apportion this
Indebtedness. The entire property of
"old" Alturas county being held for
the debt, it is very easy to ascertain
what the assessable value of that
property is and to appor.ion accord
ingly.
It may be alleged again. as it has
been on other occasions, that in one
or moro OF the counties interested, the
valuation Of property has been in,en>
tionally reported much below the actual
value. The allegation is unworthy
Of consideration, as whole communi.
ties do not commit perjury. Besides,
Is an additional safeguard. the assess.
ment rolls of the past four years can
be averaged, aud the sum thus OBJ
tanned taken as basis. This is
certainly fair, aud it should be accept
able all around.
This matter is greatly retarding the
development and injuring the credit
OF every county in the State. It is
besides. a crying evil; and it should
be settled, and settled Alright. without
further delay. In fact, it should have
been settl i at the time of the d.
vision.

Character IL the Face.

A thick neck generally accompanies
a gross organization aud coarse tastes.
A broal, conspicuous forehead
always indicates great mental pens
tration.
Projecting. rolling eyes belong to
people destitute Of genuine venera,ion.
The snub nnse is peculiar to Russ
slams. Esquimaux, Tartsrs, and Afri.
cans.
A mouth exactly twice as broad az
the eye shows dulln-ss Of spprehen-
sion.
Warts on the chin or ne ok indicate
industrious, active, sanguine persons
Any marked popularity of coun.
tenance indicates some peculiarly oil
mind.
A projecting nose and mouth show
self-conhdence, impudeuce and rash.
ness.
Thick. heavy, regularly arched eve.
brows always indicate sound judg
meht.
The best noses always show con.
cavity between the nose and forehead
Noses which wrinkle easily ar.
rarely found in men Of good natured
disposition.
Very small. thin ears are usually
associated with great dcIicacy and
refinement.
High cheek bones always indicate
great force Of character in some di
rection.
Ful'ness Of the temples is supposed
to show powers OF mathematical cal
culation.
First impressions, in the study oil
countenances, are always the most re-
liable.
The Roman nose shows the greater
character; the Greek nose the create,
| taste.
Half-shut eyes show great natural
shrewdne.s, together with . lack oil
sincerity.
The man whose temples are full in
the lower part is apt to be q great
lover of eating.
A long, thick chin is COMMONLY
found only in per.ous Of low mental
organization.

aud expensive that it practically
amounts to denial of justice.
What is needed is legal AUTHORIZE
ton to revie " the acts Of the commits
sioners, and in the simplest and
cheapest way possible. A measure
such as this would enable the taxpay.
ers to except from all the acts com
planned in one appeal, and the poin,
ut issue could ba decided by the Dis.
trict Court on its merits.
This would be satisfactory to the
taxpayers and should be unobj"o,ion
able to the commissioners, who, i
faithful. would be glad to have thei
pubic acts judicially authenticated.
The Legislature being io session
this matter is respectfully submitted
for its consi IL ration.
