An open, honorable fusion OF the Democratic
and POpulist parties would certainly ensure the
overthrow of Republican cOrruptiOnfsts and ring
sters. The combining Of the masses against
these parasites would route them completely,
and the fair state of Idaho would become some
thing more than the festive board Of maladmin-
iStratOrs. But can fusion be made? The POpu-
list leaders seem to be adverse to it and the
Democrats are not particularly fond of the
proposition. This fact, however, does not
make the joining Of forces impracticable: Party
differences should not be considered in local,
county nor state elections, and especially in
times such as the present, when a change must
be had. We must work for the common good of
the people, and If fusion would result in the
bringing about Of that good fusion should be
made.
We haze heretofore held that fusion aVas ,u,aec-
cssdry to bring about a change, but from figures
mo,0 before us zoe t',d zoe acere mistaken and
any step that will tend to rid the taxpayers of
the state of the Republican yoke they have borne
these many years. Let each of the weaker par
ties get together, amicably agree upon ticket,
putting up the best material obtainable, and then
let everybody stand firm on that ticket, and the
Republican ring masters reign will soon be over.
The bOOdlers will not even remain to erase their
black records.

AFTER THE FLOOD is OVER.

The flood is come and gone and
things are beginning to resume a
normal aspect. 1t is needless to talk
about the damages and distress caused
The suffering in every direction has
been severe, and while we may take
some consolation in the reflection that
it might have been worse, yet, the pal
pable fact remains that it ought not
have happened. The bursting of a
large reservoir is essentially in some
measure casualty, but, nevertheless,
such accidents are not to be mitigated
by mistaken zeal for the DEVELOPMENT
of the country. However important
and wise it may be to encourage the
construction of reservoirs, it is vet
more imperative to condemn unsub-
stantial structures. Whether or not
the demolished dam was substantial
structure is no longer question for con-
troversy. It was not. It makes no
difference whether it was perforated
and weakened by the clandestine
Vaccinations of depraved ground
squirrel or overpowered by a cataclysm,

THE RABBIT PEST,

Tn WV of the fact that there is a
strong sent, -oent in the county favor
ing a bounty on rabbits, Mr.. Gw1NN,
Chairman of the Board of County
Commissioners, has had printed, at no
expense to the people, petition heads
which will be sent all over the county.
This will enable the taxpayers to ex-
press themselves on the proposition
and if the majority sentiment favors a
bounty it is probable that the commits
sioners will order it. At the same time
there are serious objections to the pay
ing of bounty under existing condi-
tons. If Canyon county alone should
adopt bounty. it is possible that she
will have to pay for considerable ex-
termination of the pests for the benefit
of adjoining counties and indeed the
state of Oregon. How will any one be
able to distinguish Canyon county
jackrabbit from native of Ada
county or our sister state across Snake
river? AS matter of fact, it is posi-
BILE to financially swamp this county.
This is serious matter. If joining
counties could be induced to pay the
same bounty that this one may, then
great part of the difficulty would be
overcome. The TRIBUNE submits this
matter for careful consideration and
hopes some method may be found
whereby the rabbit can be exterminated
without grave injustice to this particu-
lar county.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1894-03-24

it was dangerous and inefficient work.
The dam was designed to hold back an
immense body of water; the fact that
it gave way demonstrates one of two
things. viz: 1t is physically impossible
to hold such body of water in that
location or the construction was faulty.
No one will entertain the idea of i'm
possibility, hence the method of con-
struction is answerable for the so
called casualty and the people who
built the dam should be held RESPONSE
BILE for all damages growing out of
defective construction.
1t is claimed that the dam will be
Immediately rebuilt In that event,
the people whose lives and properties
are jeopardized should take some steps
looking to protection. If the dam be
rebuilt this spring, it will, in all proba
bility, be hurriedly and indifferently
done, becoming a greater menace than
ever. 1t is all very easy for people who
have suffered nothing to take lightly
and even sneeringly of such fears, but
those who were in the late flood are
not in frame of mind to regard it as
good joke. In the abstract, a flooded
cellar is not a very grievous calamity
but to the man who has to bale out
water, scrub off mud and live in the
damp and stencil it is very remote from
perennial joy. The TRIBUNE may be
accused of vindictiveness, but, never
theless, we believe that the owners of
the demolished reservoir ought to be
made to pay all accrued damages be-
fore being permitted to rebuild, and
then it should not be filled with water
until it has been inspected and ap-
proved by state authorities. The de-
velopment of this country will not be
advanced by constructing
death-traps on every or any eminence.

ONLY Three,

In the last few days two hopeful
newspapers that had "come to stay"
have quietly climbed the golden stairs
and gone to meet their reward. The
Logan county Reviev was first
to succumb and then followed in
its dolorous wake the Montpeliei
Republic. Theirs was brief but
pathetic history. In the flush and
promise of vigorous youth, they
were called on to lay down the bur-
dens OF life and slump away into the
trackless waste. The whole story is
told in few words. 1t taxes money
to run newspaper. In it's valedic
tory the Republic is compelled to
make narrowing confession. In all
the broad land, it had only three paid
up subscribers. Think of putting into
operation the whole machinery of the
press think of the mighty and force
full engine expanding it's intellectual
throbs on lone souls in this wilder
ness of humanity; then, the pride
and arrogance OF those 3, when they
came to realize that for months the
energy and brains of the Republic had
been devoted to moulding their
thoughts, elevating their hearts and
informing their understandings. But
the CONTEMPLATION is nainful

it requires a considerable exertion OF
faith to believe, in the face of such evil
adence, that business in Caldwell is alb
normally depressed. With the opening
sof spring the unnatural and misap-
propriated gloom which has hung over
the community for the past nine
months ought to be cast off. Condi-
lions do not afford even pretext for
melancholia. The evidence of reliable
witnesses affirms that business is fair,
money easy and prospects bright.
These are not reasonable grounds for
detection. The main cause of calamity
the time for gloomy apprehensions
has gone by and the catastrophe did not
come; now let the natural spirit and
energy of the community assert itself
and despond give way to cheerfulness
and enterprise. 1t seems to us that
this is a most fitting time for general
and happy congratulations. We have
passed under the shadow of financial
woe and a vista of prosperity opens
ito view. A little effort will shake off
the last dismal foreboding and the
stress and trials of a brief season
will serve to chasten our characters
and correct our habits. A certain
amount of affection is necessary to
maintain mans relation to humanity.
In prosperity, the higher sentiments
and impulses are dormant; in adver
sity, the brotherhood of man and the
mercy of God became tangible realiza-
lions. And let us remember through it
all, that though there has been much
Of mental and physical pain; yet,
the heart of man has been softened,
the spiritual has been quickened and
elevated, and the same conditions
,rhich have caused the loss of mater
ial goods have brought untold thous-
ands nearer to their Creator. There
is a compensation in every seeming
misfortune and the present has been
no exception. In this realization we
may view life in happier mood and re-
gard its tribulations as necessary and
profitable discipline and look forward
with certainty to the enjoyment of
its beneficence. The coming year is
full of promise and the good times
are with us now.

nue. from every possible source, there
has been for the last twenty years,
at least, no excuse for retaining 1T,
and the fact that it has been retained
is due to the obstinacy of the senate.
The tariff on works Of art was
abolished in the original drafts OF both
the Mills and the Mckinley bills and in
both cases the senate was responsible for
maintaining Il duty on art, though it was
reduced by the present tariff law to 10
per cent, half the former duty. As
already observed, the revenue from this
source is inconsiderable, it affords no
protection TO American artists, who are
practically unanimous in asking that 1t
be abolished, aud, in short, there is not
a single useful purpose served by it,,
while as American artists themselves
point out it places such of them as are
studying abroad in the unpleasant posi-
tion of accepting benefits from foreign
artists against whom this government
constantly discriminates. There can be
no question that the enlightened senti-
ment Of the country is in favor Of
abolishing the duty on art.

4 Plea FOR FREE AIT.

The National Free Art league, whose
membership embraces eleven hundred
artists of America, besides hundreds of
persons interested in art, has made an
appeal to the press of the country to
support the free art clause of the new
tariff bill. The circular of the league
says that American artists think it of
Importance to the nation that, as in
other civilized countries, works of art
from, our shores, on account of their
educational value for our people in gen
eral and especially for our artists and
artisans. 1t is argued that, as our
artists desire no. protection, the only
eXcus for so unusual a tax as that on
works of art lies in their designation
as luXuries, but as paintings and sculp-
lures are not subject to the merely per-
sonal use and private consumption of
their owners, as they furnish example,
instruction and inspiration to others
than their owners, their taxation as
Injuries would be II singular error.
The league offers six reasons for the
ttbblltlpl u LlS 'uuly VII WOThS vi tIl.
1t is not in the nature of n protective
tax, because it has no beneficial effect
upon domestic production, nor does 1T
stimulate the sale of domestic works of
art. AS n revenue tax il is of no con-
sequence and the small amount derived
from it could be spared without injury
to the government. 1t is not
n tax upon luxury, but a tax upon edu-
cation. Works of art are not consumed
by the rich. They remain as part of the
permanent wealth of tho country, the
best Of them becoming in the end the
property of public institutions, in this
way contributing to the promotion of
general artistic culture and develop
ment, No other country of equal rank
with the United States in civilization
leVies such Il tax upon works of art,
such countries, on the contrary, recog-
nizing art as u factor in public educa-
ton. Finally, it is resented by the
artists of other countries and places our
W artists whO are studying abroad in
a difficult and ungracious position, since
they enjoy equal privileges with foreign
artists in the schools of art and the
museums of Europe, These are cogeut
reasons which should be conclusive with
intelligent and unprecedented people.
This paper has always advocated the
abolition Of the duty on art, 1t has CON
tended hat the maintenance of this tax
is a reproach to the country. However
defensible it may have been during the
war and for a few years after, when the
government was compelled TO get rove
