Culb3rson's structures upon the
extravaganza of legislative expen-
diture for contingent expenses
comes in a little too late for action.
The Legislature had already fired
their shot into the state treasury
for clerkships, per diem, mileage
and things regardless of the de-
ficiency that exists. This fact only
emphasizes the need of the terms
of the incoming governor and Leg
islature commencing at the same
time. Had this bolt been sent in
when the Legislature met it might
have reduced contingent expenses
no little, but it would have run
against a snag in attempting to re-
duce that mileage. The member
with a pass in his pocket and a
Pullman favor in his hat smiles as
he draws his twenty cents mileage
and wraps the drapery Of that
salvage for drinks around him.

Monticello, Kentucky, boasts a
thirty. eight years old man who
sat down to, his New Year dinner
with three living wives and six
teen living children, and he was no
relation of William p. Breckin-

peculiar in the atmosphere of that

Japan is distrustful Of British
interference in the East. She is
aware Of the secret if not open hos
tility that Great Britain must
necessarily feel to the march Of
Japanese influence, an influence
destined to affect India in time
and so affect Great Britain as we'll,
and she prefers to court an undis-
guised unfriendliness than to man.
ifest an apparent friendship that
is not real. She is making friends
with Russia and Germany prefer
ably to England, and in this thing
japanese craftsmanship shows its
real appreciation of the situation.

Any interest that the Legislature
takes in the matter Of irrigation
will be found to find an answering
response in the mind OF the people
of the state. This is one of those

heartily unite in promoting a
movement that wisely directed
will be worth millions now and in

There is method in HIPS appar-
ent reconciliation with Cleveland
and the Cabinet. 1t is not that he
hates Cleveland less, but that he
hates German more. He recog-
nizes in the Maryland boss the
real rival for the throne of Demo-
cratic control and understands that
he cannot fight him and the ad.
ministration both at one and the
same time. Cleveland will be out
of the way two years hence and
German will not. This fact lets
lots Of daylight into that New
Years reconciliation.

The new message tells the people
no end of things that they were as
we'll aware of before they read it as
they were afterward, but it tells
them mighty little OF specific
and directing nature as to the rem

columns OF suggestions Of practi-
cal character would be more valu-
able to the Legislature than two
pages of recapitulation OF reports.
Texas cotton raisers are again
advised to reduce their cotton
acreage as the only means OF rails
ing the price of that staple to a
paying point, but each individual
cotton planter will argue that the
other fellows will reduce and that
prices will 60 up, therefore he will
increase his plant and reap the ad
vantage. Thus it has been from
year to year and the price goes
down, down and the increase in
production piles up. Logic on the
half shell is a wonderful thing to
plant cotton by.

WAHA TRGEDY.

A shooting affray which bas
not been equaled in all north
Idaho, took place at the Ward
place near Lake Waha last
Sunday morning.
John Siers, more farniliarly
known as "Ruena' who was
member of the firm of Schissler
and Siers, several yeary ago, was
shot and instantly killed.
Frank Ward was shot through
the body and died Tuesday night
and Mrs. Goddard was shot
through the wrist and may lose
her hand.
The shooting was the result
Of a feud of many years stand
ing, renewed by a dispute about
the possession of $50 worth Of
personal property. Mr.. Siers
and Mrs. Goddard both claimed
the property in dispute. Siers
had business with friend at the
Waha place and consequently
called there Sunday morning,
anticipating trouble had armed
| himself with q winchester ri fie
and a revolver. When he a
lighted from his conveyance he
leaned his rifle against the fence
and left his friends in the wagon.
When fairly on the way to the
door he was fired on by Ward
While trying to locate Ward
Mrs. Goddard opened fire or
him from the back and sent two
bullets into his body. Ther
Ward rushed up and begar
clubbing him over his head

had managed to get hold OF hi
rifle and quickly sent one bal
through Wards body and ont
through Mrs. Goddards wrist
Mrs. Goddard's 13 year old sol
then appeared on the scene o
action armed with wincheste
} and proceeded to follow the maj
who had shot " ard to tn
Lake house.
The Coroner's jury have de

conscious of the fact that the
most strenuous efforts of our
opponents are now and have
ever been directed to a conceal
ment Of the real issue, and'a
Misrepresentation of the position
occupied by the advocates Of
silver restoration, feel it our
duty to state, with such clear
ness as we may, the precise
nature of the issue and what
our position naturally is.
4 ''In the first place, we desire
to say that the people whom we
represent arenot an aggregation
OF thieves, seeking to swindle
honest, creditors with 30 cent
dollars. There are no more
patriotic citizens of the Amer
ican republic than those active,
earnest, energetic men and
women who have left the COM
forts of their eastern homes to
build the highways of nutnral
progress in the far west. II
they believed that the complete
restoration OF silver would op-
crate as an injury to the
country as q whole, or an
injustice to any class, regardless
of local effect III this western
region, they would at once and
forever abandon the demand.
The greatest good to the great
est number is their matto, and it
is in this spirit that they, ir-
respective Of party affiliations,
present themselves, almost as a
unit. demanding the free coinage
of silver and gold at the ratio OF
16 ounces of silver to one ounce
Of gold, with full legal tender
functions accorded to each, and
no discrimination against either
1t is not as silver miners, but as
citizens of the republic, that We
take this position"
The address was read by Mr.
Bartine of Nevada, and it was
frequently interrupted by ap
plause. The hand clapping ant
cheers of approval were long anC
loud at the close, and withor
discussion, the address wa
unanimously adopted.-Spokes es

Sold the Handouts.

A relic OF the late Coxey
movement came to light today
in the shape Of pair of nickel
plated handouts. In these good
old days when deputy marshalls
had more money than brains
these gentlemen thought nothing
of blowing in S. bill for a
pair of handouts. They thought
they needed them in their bust
ness when they were hauling off
the poor, half-starved creatures
to jail. Certain stores in
Seattle did fourisbing business
at one time selling handouts to
deputies. The more handouts
deputy carried the more
exalted was his profes sion in
his own estimation. Now the
tide has turned.
A large portion Of the Coxy-
ties are now earning an honest
dallar while the major portion
of the deputies have naught to
fall back upon save their hand
cuffs. These they are disposing
of whenever opportunity offers
One Of them sold pair Of
nickel-plated Marlin handouts
today for a mere trife. He was
glad to get the money to subsls
on. The handouts found theil
way to police headquarters
where they will do future
service.-Spokane Tribune.
