one dollar per inch. The ratio of land
held fraudulently or for purely specu-
lative purposes is at least as 20 is to 2,
therefore, at this time, o4a tenth of the
land owners are compen0d to pay as
much water tax as the whole number
would have to pay provided the lands
were all under cultivation. We under
stand that the one-tenth do not actu-
ally pay the sum but they pay as much
of it as they can possibly bear and the
canal companies have to make up the
deficit. 1t is evident that the land
speculator is curse to the canal COM
panies and they should join with The
TRIBUNE in an effort to GUST him. The
bona tide holder is being injured in a
hundred ways. First is the additional
water rental second, the discomforts
and disadvantages Of living for years
remote from neighbors-from this
alone no end of Inconvenience result
which none can appreciate without
trial-last, but greatest of all, the
hundreds of acres Of vacant lands sur
rounding the occasional cultivated spot,
harbor coyotes to eat his chickens,
larkspur to poison his cows and mil.
lions of jackrabbits to devour his crops
and destroy his fruit trees. Against
all of these odds the honest farmer is
compelled to struggle alone, knowing
at the Same time that every furrow he
plows, every sagebrush he pulls up,
every post hole he digs, every tree he
plants enhances the speculator's hold
ings in nearly the same ratio as his
own. And he knows still further, that
he is doing exactly that thing which
the speculator contemplated that he
should do-subdue the wilderness for
the benefit of q land shark and his
thankless posterity. Perhaps this is too
trifing thing for senators and
congressman to dabble with, but we
believe that little attention to the
material interests and welfare of their
common constituency would save them
any amount of laborious political wire
pulling.

from speculative and fraudulent land
holdings are almost incalculable. There

A FEW Mormons down in the south
eastern part may remember. with more
or less vividness, the reign of the
United, States Marshals from 1880 to
1889. In those days Coxeyites were not
the victims. Perhaps, some Of the
older Mormons can recall who were.
1t was noticeable at that time, the Nor.
mons said. that the most contemplate
and disreputsble member of q COM
munity always graced the Office Of dep
uty marshal. As rule, so Mormons
stoutly maintained, deputies were So
lected with an eye solely to their &C.
compliments Is political scullions
and all around Williams. 1t may be
pertinent to inquire whether or not
the same qualifications secure appoint
ment in these days? We are impelled
to think that different line of virtues
are in demand, but as there has been
no change Of personnel nor motive at
headquarters, it is difficult to account
for change of policy. We sincerely
hope that Mormons who have recently
officiated rs deputies are not regarded
by other members of their respective
communities with the same degree of
aversion and contempt that their pred
ecessors enjoyed when Mormons and
not Coxeyites were the victims.

THAT RESOLUTION AGAIN.

The Nampa Progress is disposed to
question the justice Of the THE TR1B'
UNE's structures on the senatorial reso'
luton adopted by q deputy state com
mittee. Acquainted with the Progress
uniform independence of thought and
integrity Of purpose, we are warranted
in assuming that it has not given the
matter any particular consideration
The artifice was designed expressly to
deceive honest but unthinking men
It makes q specious appeal to the pop.
ular heart in order to conceal the trick
and mislead the understanding. And,
coming as it does, from such high au-
thority, the wonder is that so few have
been deluded. Let us strip this bust
ness of sentiment and prejudice and
examine the naked facts. The first
step towards the Inauguration of a
general political campaign is about to
be taken. One of many incidents to
that campaign is the election of q
United States Senator. Without no.
tice or intimation by tho Republican
party, three gentlemen, all members of
Congress and two of which are notori-
ously aspirants to the United States
Senate, upon their own authority, ap-
prise the State Committee that the peo-
pie are dissatisfied with the constitu-
tional method Of electing senators and
demand change. On the bare as
sumption Of dissatisfaction with the
present plan, though it has been in reg
ular operation for upward of an hun
dred years with, except in rare cases,
singular success and appreciation, these
senators propose q method which has
been tried only in few instances and
then with such fatal consequences that
no party ever ventured a repetition.
SO much for the plan. Where is the
evidence Of any desire for change on
the people's part. That committee was
composed Of fourteen men and five
proxies. Nine of those men had come
from the midst of the people
and those men knew nothing of such
sentiment and opposed the resolution.
Ut the ten votes, favoring the resolu-
ton, those of Messrs. BAssETT, BAs-
SET, HARRoUN and HORN are the
only ones which by any contortion
can be construed as representative of
. popular constituency. Mr.. WooD
Mr.. HEPBURN, a candi-
date for tho senate and a politician,
who had never been consulted on the
The question. Mr.. WILSON, never hav-
ing consulted principal or constituency
lid, judging from later evidences, mis-
his constituency, and FRANK
FEM, who exists alone by the grace of
political favors, represented nothing
but the hope Of continued pabulum
Ind the dictates Of the bosses. THE
TRIBUNE stands in opposition to the
'ction Of the State Committee for the
GLOWING and other reasons: First,
he resolution was injected into the
proceeding Of the committee for no
purpose other than to "down" Gov
rnor MCCONNELL, and tho committee
lad no business to become the instru.
mont Of one political faction within

tation of political combination it de-
serves neither respect nor confidence
and no rebuke can be too severe. In
the second place, the chasm between
the Republican party and its leaders is
already widened to dangerous degree
"a disruptive point-and it grows out
of the fact that the dictum of the
bosses has supplanted the voice of the
people. Let us ask one question in
illustration, how many voters in Idaho
ever thought of electing United States
Senators by the proposed method until
they were apprised by politicians that
they wanted it? Is it not a little
strange that gentlemen in Washington,
absorbed in all the labor and turmoil of
tremendous legislation, should discover
lOngings in the breasts of Idaho Re-
publican before Idaho Republicans
even suspect such sentiment or heard
of the naodats operandia 1t is because
of these things that the party is gradu-
ally crumbling away and unless a
check is put upon the high handed
manipulations of leaders, there will
soon be Republican lords without man
ors and sloughs of generalissimos with
out corporals guard of voters.
