BRIEFS FILE TOO LATE.
Why Supreme COurt Did Not Pass ON
County Inv.

Many of the county school superintend-
ents expected a decision of the case brought
to test the law changing their election to
September before the Supreme Court made
its final adjournment for the summer They
were disappointed when no decision was
handed down last Saturday. One of the Su-
preme Court judges yesterday explained
why the case was not decided The briefs
were filed last Friday, which gave the court
no time to consider the case. The Judge
stated that If the. briefs had been filed a
week earlier a decision. might have been
reached. 1t Is not likely that a decision
will be rendered until the October term,
which is after the date set by the new law
for the election of superintendents.

Cuts Both Ways.

This should be chalked on Coins
blackboard in large letters:
at is impossible to find a cheaper
way for the people to pay what they
owe without at the same time provid-
ing cheaper way for the payment of
what is owing to them"
There is the money question in a
nutshell.
Any change in the standard of value
is bound to work both ways.
There can not be one kind of money
for the use of one class Of debtors, and
another kind for the use of another
class. If all the people were debtors,
with nothing to their credit in the
banks and other corporate agencies OF
business and prosperity, it might do for
them to favor deprecated currency,
but the actual situation is such that
they stand, to lose more than they can
possibly gain. They have the interest
of creditors as we'll as Of debtors in the
matter; and when this fact is soberly
considered by an intelligent citizen he
is sure to make up his mind that he
cannot afford to vote for the free coin
age of silver, or any other money
cheapening process.

Where the Schemes Fail.

President Angel was right when he
pointed out the flaw in most of the
prevailing schemes for lettering mans
condition Their fatal defect is that
they lead people to believe there are
other and easier ways for them to make
an honest living than by working for
it day in and day out with all their
might. We have innumerable projects
for legislating men into prosperity
without Industrious and persevering
effort on their part. The reformers
assure us that every evil, real or i'm
aginary, can be removed by passing
laws for the purpose. 1t is practically
contended by many of these cheap and
noisy agitators that it is the business
of the government to provide work and
wages for it's citizens, and even to sup
port them, partially or entirely, when
they find it hard to earn their own
living. Socialistic schemes of all sorts
are proposed as substitutes for the old
fashioned theory of personal independ-
ence and self-reliance. The average
workingman is coddled with the de-
lusive idea that he is entitled not only
to fair pay for his service, but also to a
share in the profits of the man who
employs him: and that this can be and
should be accomplished by statute.
Thus feeling of discomfort is gener-
ated and Generalization ensues, simply
because honest minds are bewildered
with sophistry, and the plain facts of
the case-facts that always have exist
ed and always will exist-are cunningly
evaded and concealed.

ONE Of the knotty points that asses
sors will have to trouble themselves
over, is whether bicycles shall be as
sessed or not. The courts have de-
cided that a bicycle is a vehicle just as
much as buggy must be considered
one. A horse and buggy is considered
personal property and no assessor
would for one moment think of not put
ting the name of such owner on his
assessment roll so that the tax could be
collected. The modern high priced
bicycle is worth as much as many a
horse and buggy and there seems to
be no good reason why it should not be
taxed. Wheels are now so numerous
that a tax levied on them would pro-
duce quite revenue. The owner of a
wheel would have no more cause to
find fault we're he taxed for it than any
other property owner, who now pays on
personal property that he possesses.
