THE WEISER SIGNAL.
THURSDAY. JANUARY IT. 1895.

The legislature this session will
have to deal with a revised fee bill
for county officers which will have to
be handled very carefully to main
tain the balance of equal justice.
The measure is introduced with a
view to relieve the people in the
weather. and heavier populated
counties where the auditor and other
officers are getting very high salaries
at the expense of the public and is
designed to cut the incomes
in two. There Is no doubt of merit
in such legislation as it applies to
those certain counties, but if applied
to all alike will work great injustice
on poorly paid officials in others. In
Washington county it would put the
auditor on an allowance of about
$500 a year, which is less than anv
competent man should receive. The
only way to handle the matter Justly
is to grade the counties so that the
law when passed will operate to hold
the pay to reasonable limits in the
counties where there is great deal
Of business, and prevent it going be-

about such situation is that men

their appreciation by urging the UNI
falterlng pursuit of previously defined
party lines, regardless of how their
people $ interests may be jeopardized
by such course. The present acute

fund Of $1,000 and is not losing an
opportunity to fortify her strength.
The trend of Senator Smith and
Representative Verbeck's campaign
is to allow Idaho Falls to have the
first crack at the institution and if
she does not secure the prize then
Weiser will have a try. We sincerely
hope that there is wisdom in their
plans, and that they will be able to
gather the threads of different
antagonistic forces into an array of
strength equal to that which could
have been secured at the opening of

SYMPTOMS AND SPECULATION.

Bread riots, poverty riots, strikes
and all the other calamities that make
human life intolerable exist now all
over the land, in fact all over the
earth, and the prime reason for it all
is that the wealth of the world has, in
this and other lands, passed rapidly
from the masses to the classes. The
drift of legislation is wholly to per
petuate this condition of affairs. The
owners of millions of idle dollars are
fully aware of the condition and pre-
fer TO invest in securities unquestion-
ably safe, at the lowest possible in
terest, rather than to invest in any
enterprise, no matter how flattering
the prospect may be. They have so
far overplayed the game that now the
chief concern is TO keep and not to
get. As part of the program, they
have been the prime movers IN de-
stroying one-half of the wealth of
the world in order that the half they
hold may be worth any price they
may demand For instance, when a
producer of any article, say wheat,
comes in with his product and wants
to buy money with it, he finds the
price of money has gone up the
