TO BOND OR NOT TO BOND.

On Tuesday, August 81, the voters Of
Kootenai county viii decide, by their
ballots, whether or not bonds shall be
issued for the purpose of refunding the
warrant Indebtedness of the county.
After mature deliberation the commits
.sioners decided that this was the best
course to pursue. BY an act of the
legislature all counties were prohibited
from going into debt without q vote
of the people and the law also provides
that the present outstanding warrant
indebtedness must be paid of by either
4evying = special tax for that purpose or
by refunding the came with bonds. The
supreme court recently rendered de-
cision to the effect that the issuing OF
bonds caused and increase Of the debt
though only temporary-consequently =
vote OF the people was necessary. This
left the commissioners one of two propo-
sitions to accept-levy the special tax or
c~a special election to vote on bonds,
and they wisely choose the latter.
A special tax meant an increase in
taxation that the people at the present
time are unable to stand and another
advantage OF bonds will be found in the
fact that saving of one or two per cent.
in interest can be effected.
We believe the action of the board
will be endorsed at the polls.

Pendence had been laboring for days to

calves of the liberty makers legs were
attacked by the festive moequito with

most stubborn member was worn out
on the fourth day of July, and the Dec
iaration was signed. John Hancock
dashed down his signature with the re :
mark THAT George the Third might
read it without his spectacles." "Now,

Thar the Republican League did no.
declare itself on the financial question,
but left it to the next national conven-
tion, is certainly victory for the silver
men. An effort was made to have the
league convs ntion make declaration in
favor OF the gold standard and the fact
that the silver men were strong enough
to prevent this and leave the question
to the national nominating convention
mnst be considered in the light OF a vic
tory for silver. In the mean time let the
campaign OF education go on and a
friend Of silver will he nominated for
president BY the Republican party.
