THE TRIBUNE is in possession
of information which obliges it
to revise its opinion respecting
the controversy between the Peo-
PIES Canal and Irrigation Co, of
Blackfoot, and the American F ais
Canal and Power Co. Two weeks
ago, we expressed the opinion
that probably an injustice had
been done to the Peoples enter
prise by the state land commits
sion in Withdrawing, under the
Carey act for the American Falls
company, certain lands which we
were led to believe came under
the Peoples canal. Some in
vestigation has developed the fact
that of 46, $50 acres intended to
be covered by the People canal
only 1880 acres come under the
American Falls canal. 1t does
not appear that injustice has been
done to any one, and it is quite
evident that the state land COM
mission was not only justified but
compelled by express command of
law to withdraw land according to
the application of the American
Falls company. Contrary to a
former opionion entertained by
us, it appears that the American
Falls company is composed of
Utah and Idaho people; that it is
not a speculative proposition as
generally understood; that the
company is composed of men
who propose to do and are doing
the work of construction them
selves, and that any one desiring
to obtain water rights may have
the privilege of working them
out at actual cost. AS the object
to be accomplished by both COM
panies is substantially the same,
as they are equally worthy, as
they do not materially interfere
with each other; as no actual set
tier can be damaged in the least;
and, finally, as the state land
commission was obliged by a
mandatory provision of law to do
just what has been done, we are
driven to the conclusion that there
is nothing more to be said on the
subject. We will not attempt to
conceal the fact we had begun to
cherish a hope that this business
would offer pretext for attack
ing the state administration Wig
orously, but the facts have ruth
lessly dissipated our pleasure.
Perhaps, though, we may get
more light on the subject, sufi-
cient, at least, to warrant us in
encoring somebody else's growl.

acter. We think, also, the
judge might consistently have
urged his opinions without going
out of his way to make a con-
temptuous fling at the local press.
He says:
"True, an occasional harsh editorial
from the local paper, injected, however,
more as a medicine for the woes of an
unfortunate patron, rather than honest
criticism and hence needed with many
grains of allowance"
The judge may discover in the
course of time that the local press
is frequently inspired by motives
quite as laudable as his own, and
that its propensity to soothe the
woes of unfortunate patrons is no
more pronounced than is the ten
dency of chronic Office holders to
demagogy. He may also have
the pleasure of discovering that
gradually but surely the local
press is growing in public credit,
and some day its admonitions will
be needed with fewer grains of
allowance than the interests of its
traducers may demand. But
while the judge was telling us
about the extravagant amounts
paid county officers, he might,
incidentally, have thrown some
light on the matter of district Off
GERS. We select this little gem:
"The commission would consist, no
doubt, of able, conscientious lawyers of
the state, well versed in the laws def
ciencies and its burdens. With their
knowledge of the history of the laws,
they could sit down untrammeled and
unhampered, and could prepare fee
system which would be just and ample
to the office-holder under the condi
tiOns of the times and country and at
the same time, safe and economical for
the people"
Oh, certainly, certainly! Able,
conscientious, untrammeled, I'M
hampered, safe and economical
lawyers-for the people. God
bless 'em; yes, yes, intensely
conscientious and untrammeled
lawyers. All for the people.
Dear, dear, how fortunate! No
professional Office seekers these
very superior gentlemen, indeed.
Conscientious and quite unham-
pered. Happy suspicious
coincidence. Estimable lawyers
and Judges! County officers,
legislatures, Office seekers, local
papers, all damn rascals-utterly
depraved, quite deplorable. Pos
itively nauseating-quite shock
ing.

Silver ANp PROTECTION.

Events are conspiring which
appear to be driving the Repub-
licans of Idaho upon a rock which
threatens to disrupt the party and
render it politically ilnpotent.
The fight for silver is assuming
the attitude of a fight against pro-
lection, and just as sure as sun
shine, unless that tendency be
checked, the party will destroy
itself. There are thousands of
good Republicans who believe
that silver and protection are al
lied and equally vital principles.
They want to see silver rehabil-
itated as a primary money metal;
they will fight for it and vote for
it. But, at the same time, they
just as firmly believe that the pro-
ducts of American industry ought
to be protected against destruc-
tive foreign competition. They
place the two propositions on an
exact equality, and they are not
prepared to abandon either, much
less are they inclined to convert
them into into antagonistic, self
destroying forces. And what
occasion is there for it? Up to a
very recent date all the legislative
and executive power of national
government was completely in
the hands of the apostles of free
trade. 1t was entirely within
their power to advance the cause
of free silver. What did they
do? Killed it! What do they
now offer2 Simply this: That
if protectionists will abandon pro-
lection and return them to power
they, the free traders, promise to
try to do something for silver.
The Republicans were reinstated
because they advocated and al
ways have advocated a protective
tariff, Now they are asked to
abandon that principle and yield
up that power in consideration of
empty promises which, if sincere,
should have been fulfilled two
years ago. The American peo-
pie have emphatically and repeat
eddy declared themselves for pro-
lection to American industries,
they have not declared themselves
for the free and unlimited coinage
of silver independent of any other
nation; then, is it reasonable to
ask the people to abandon or even
subordinate principle they have
thus endorsed for the benefit of
something they have not yet de-
cided to be in their best interest.
Why do not the free traders drop
their theorya Is it not more
reasonable that theory which
has been rejected should be sur
rendered than that one which has
been endorsed should be forsak-
en-? Why don't the Southern
men, if they are such loyal BIZ
renounce their tried
and exploded doctrine and pro-
pose a free silver and protection
platform? That would settle the
question in short order. This
whole business suggests the idea
IF a one-legged man saving off |
he member he already has on |
promise of having the missing
'ne restored while utterly obliv-
Gus of the fact that, in any event
lie would be a one legged man
till.

THE MERIDEN wHEELMEN,
Their Coming Big Race Meet-Entries

Their Coming Big Race Meet-Entries
 Numerous.
 The committee in charge of the big national circuit race meet at Meriden, Saturday, August 29, has received as- surances of so many entries that it has secured the big grange building close to the track for use of the racing men. The building is a light, airy structure, with a broad, shady balcony from which the racing men can see the races when not competing.
 Arrangements have also been made to accommodate 10000 spectators, and fully that number is expected, as the special rates from New Haven, New Britain, Hartford, Bridgeport and Mid dletown will bring many people. The cycle paths built by Meriden wheelmen to the north and south will also bring many wheelmen. A program has been arranged for the visiting wheelmens s entertainment, consisting of runs over the fine state roads outside of the city and of entertainments in the clubs rooms.
 It is practically assured that all the big circuit chasers will compete in the races. The big invitation race against time, which is to be run in individual heats, with pacing, has caused no end of comment. It will be a novel and highly exciting event.

1lmDer. John r, Tanner, their nbm-
inee for that office, was once con-
YIcted and sentenced to the peni.
tentiary for two years for killing a
man where the pIovooaton was very
slight. The only thing that pre-.
vented his serving the sentence was
a new trial and subsequent death Of
an important witness, After Tanner
committed the crime he escaped
from Illinois and came to Arkansas
where he resided quite while, then
moved oyer INTO Missouri, where he
was apprehended. If the republicans
of Illinois can do no better than to
follow the leadership of such a man
who has been guilty of such a crime
they should never put out another
ticket. The Democrats will certain
ly have a clean ticket IN the field
and it ought to be an easy winner.
