UNPATENTED LANDS.
Fsr-Reaching Eject of Judge Hsnford's
Decision.

Decision.
Spokesman-Rev Judge Hanford's
decision holding that the unpatented
lands of the Northern Pacific are ex-
empt from taxation by the state and
it's counties, only stops the tax levy
as to Lewis county, because Lewis was
the only county in court as to that
case. He announces a doctrine which
applies with equal force to all counties
and the state, but this doctrine Is In
actual application as yet in but one
county.
Under this decision, the officers of all
the counties are at liberty to proceed
with the levy as IL no decision had
been rendered, and should do so, and
proceed until stopped by order of the
court. Thereby their rights viii be pre-
served. and in case the supreme court
of the United States should reverse
Judge Hanford's decision. the tax Hen
will attach, and the counties can then
proceed to the collection of back taxes
against those unpatented lands.
Unless the various counties take this
procedure, they will lose all right to
collect the taxes which ought to have
been levied din the years omitted; they
will find themselves entirely shut of
though the supreme court should de-
eide that the unpatented lands are sub
ject to taxation.
The Spokesman-Review has been
asked whether Judge Hanford's deci-
sion does not also apply to settlers
whose lands have been proved upon
but to wldch patents have not yet been
so apply, for the reason that the non
mineral character of such lands was de-
termined when final proof was made by
the settler.

Havre Herald: r. M. Kelly IS now
in charge of one OF the passenger runs
between this city and Kalispell, made
vacant by S. A. Bywater's attendance
on court at the latter place. Mr.. Kelly
Is as magnificent a specimen of man
kind as you could wish to see-just the
sort of timber out of which first-class
passenger conductors are made. We
hazard the opinion that he is the hot
test and handsomest conductor on the
Great Northern system to-day. Con-
ductor Kelly Is a gentleman of pre-
possessing appearance and agreeable
personality, an ornament to the var
missed cars and a valuable auxiliary
to the passenger service OF the Great
Northern system, of which he Is an
esteemed employe.

add one hundred per centum to the

to make a return the collector may add
fifty per cent to the return which ne

these collectors are clothed with very
important and extraordinary powers.
A Democratic congress has provided
some unpleasant medicine, and the col
lectors are charged with the duty Of
maNfng the people take 1t. The result
will be that when the ballot boxes are
again opened for an expression OF opin-

even louder protest against rule by the
Democratac party than was recorded
when the new congress was chosen.
Let the workers for Republican success
in the next presidential campaign, in

squeeze out of a disgusted public will

THE formation of such party necessi-

be one Of the greatest blessings thai
that could come upon the country al
this time. AS things stand now, tho
silver element exercises am influence
altogether out of proportion to its act
ual strength. 1t has representatives In
both the Democratic and Republican
bodies. These men, pretending to hole
the balance of power, and seeking tt
terrorlze the majority in both old par
ties, are prodigal with their threats and
ready revenges. The honest money
men who are more anxious about re-
election than they are about doing thu
right thing, are thus kept in a stat,
OF constant uneaslness. Hence all sorts
OF evasions and temporizing and trim
ming. 1t is the maintenance of this
position that has given the free silver
section It's inordinate prominence. Th'
formation of silver party would re
heve both the old parties of an incu
bus and a menace. They ought to b,

bly, the best thing that could happef
for the country would be the rejection
of all silver nonsense by both the ole
parties, with a straight adoption of tn
principle of international bimetalllsm,
and an adherence to the existing golc
standard until such cooperation ca.

to do this of themselves. The rise o.

Aside from the strong constitutional
objections urged against the income
tax law by Mr. Guthrie in his argu
ment before the supreme court al
Washington on Thursday, the poini
made by him that It operates as 6
direct discrimination In favor Of one
of the leading plans of hfe insurance,
will command widespread attention
1t is apparent that the law is not only
a most iniqultous and inequitable meas
ure on general principles, but It was
deliberately framed or manipulated SC
as to give an unjust II not dishonest
advantage to one class Of rival business
interests against another. A further
fact which viii now begin TO dawn
upon the shallow-pated and sectional
advocates of this populistic and un,
American method OF raising revenue,
is that It Is not the hated millionaires
Of the East, by any means. who will
have to pay the tax. but its greatest
burden win fall upon those who by dint
Of deiving and toillng and the practice
OF the most pinchIng economy, are
hoping to lay aside small compe.

It is difficult to see how the supreme
court can get around Mr.. Guthrie's
argument, even If It is disposed tC
do so. and the chances are that the
effects Of at least this one Of Mr.
cleveiand's object lessons WIN be avert
ed from the country.
