Mr.. Carllsle's views on Coinage.

With the advent of Mr.. Carlisle as
Secretary of the Treasury comes a
natural desire, not to say anxiety, on
the part of the people to know some
thing of the views of the man to whom
President Cleveland has instrusted the
financial guidance of the nation for the
next four years. Of course it is not to
be supposed that Mr.. Cleveland has
chosen a man who does not represent
his views on the currency question.
But Mr.. Carlisle is no fgurehead, nor
is Mr.. Cleveland man to want such
in his Cabinet. It is true that Mr..
Carlisle has heretofore been known
chiefly as tariff reformer, but he has
distinct ideas on the financial problems
which vex us. AS recently as last
August he is on record in language
which there is no installing and which
at once removes any doubt as to where
he stands on the silver question. In
reply to a letter written to- Kuntucky
correspondent, who had asked him if
he was in favor of free coinage, he re-
piled:
My position upon the subject is
briefly this: I am opposed to free
coinage of either Gold or Silver, but
in favor of unlimited coinage of both
metals upon terms of exact equality.
No discrimination should be made in
favor of one metal and against the
other, nor should any discrimination
be made in favor of the holders of
either gold or silver bullion and against
the great body of people who own
other kinds of property. A great gov
eminent should treat all its citizens
alike, and whenever it attempts to do
otherwise it will engender spirit of
discomfort which sooner or later must
disturb the harmony, if not the peace
or society.
1t is reassuring to know that man
who entertains such views has been
chosen to conduct the financial affairs
of the nation. The publication of these
views of Mr.. Carlisle at this time has
particular interest, for upon him
will devolve the herculean task of
guiding our finances from the rocks
which threaten it out into the deep and
safer water beyond.

In the Idaho Legislature it tran
spires that nearly every member was

What made the thing particularly
tough was the fact that the purchasing
parties had to buy their men up afresh
every day. In order to keep them in

/. A creditor who obtains transfer to him

not for the honest purpose OF securing pay
ment of o debt, but to aid the debtor in cover
ing up his property and defeating other
creditors, will not be protected, nor win the
transfer be upheld by merely showing that his
debt was bona fde.
2 A creditor who in good faith takes the
property of his debtor at q fair valuation in
payment Of an honest debt Is not guilty OF de-
frauding any one and the fact that the pay
ment of his debt in this manner may absorb
the entire property of the debtor Is no evil
dence Of bad faith on the part Of the creditor
and does not necessarily taint the transaction
with fraud.
8. In such case it should appear that the
property transferred bears a just proportion to
the amount Of the debt sought to be paid by
the transfer; and the failure Of the trial court
to include this principle in an instruction
upon such a transfer is held to be material
error.

Game Protection.

The HERALD has been irving to get
hold Of copy of the new game law, but
thus far has been unable. However.
we can give part of the same taken
from the Denver Republican, who claim
that the new law is sportsman's law,
shuts out the pot.hunter, and will do
much toward making the Colorado of
the future as good hunting ground as
it is to-day. We extract the following ::
No person shall kill or take or have in
possession any deer, elk or antelope, ex-
cept such animals as have horns and be
killed between August ! and November
l of the same year and then only when
necessary for immediate use, governed
in amount and quantity by reasonable
necessity of the person killing the same.
Reasonable necessity shall be construed
to mean not more than one elk, deer or
antelope in the possession of one person
at one time.
1t shall be unlawful to kill, trap or
otherwise destroy and leave lying on the
ground or in any manner permit of the
going to waste of any useful part or
parts of elk, deer, antelope or other
game, game fish, water fowl or game

The New Ditch.

\ ditch scheme of no small proper
tions has been brewing (sub rosal for
several weeks past, and THE HERALD
has refrained from making mention of
it owing to the fact that twice before
we were disappointed in the falling
through of plans for bitches for the
same land now to be covered by water.
The contemplated ditch will cover the
lands on the south side of White river
above the Highland ditch, where good
many thousand acres of fine land await
an enterprise of this kind. The head
gate of this large canal will tap the
river few miles above the mouth of
Miller creek, and that stream will also
be cOralled as n feeder. 1t will be some
twenty odd miles in length.
AS before mentioned the idea of get
ting water for that section of country is
not new one, but it remained for Ira
G.. Mitchell TO bring it to a successful
issue. While east the past winter he
succeeded in getting few men of
means interested in the matter. and a
to investigate the feasibility of the un-
dertaking. Two days examination con
vlnced them that a better investment
could not be made anywhere, and be-
fore returning east they deposited 5000
in the bank here as guarantee.
AS soon as it was understood that the
project was bona tide quite number of
our citizens became interested, and up.
to date some three thousand acres have
been located under the desert land act.
Work will begin this spring as soon
as snow disappears, when n permanent
survey will be made, and then look out
for two lively seasons in this locality.
as some $4,000 will be disbursed. The
ditch is to be completed before October

Another Way To Kill Smut.

Having at different times seen pub
lished in various agriculture papers
remedies for killing smut, says a. NJ.
Cloyd, am impelled to send you what
l think is a more practical method in
treating smutty seed wheat than | have
seen published. Hot water, blue vitriol
water, salt brine and lime water are all
said to be effectual remedies for killing
smut in seed wheat. | have never tried
any of those remedies but blue vitriol.
This is an old remedy which l have
used for more than forty years both in
Ohio and Colorado and have never
failed with it.
When we sowed small crops of wheat,
soaking the seed to kill smut was not
impractical but with our hundred and
thousand-acre crops now, soaking the
seed is rather impractical. 1t is too
slow process and leaves the seed wet
and not fit to sow out of seeders and
drills. The method have used with
blue vitriol in Dakota is to dilute the
vitriol and sprinkle and stir the wheat
till the whole quantity of wheat is
somewhat dampsned. This can be
