Discomfort.

Never before in the history of the
world have so many men been engaged
in trying to discover and remove the
causes of human discomfort. States
men, philapthropists and theologists
are Vylng with each other in discover
ing the hidden secret and prescribing
remedies, but discomfort remains and
thTives. Indeed it seems to increase
with the increase of wealth and the
advance of civilization. When men
wore hair, lived In caves and fed on
roots and insects, they were measurably
satisfied so long as the crop of roots
and insects Aourished. When they be-
gan to form into tribes, assume artifi
cial covering and build huts, they be
came FESTIVE and dissatisfied. When
they became civilized, they grew ambi-
tious and disconnected. The cause of
present discomfort is not difficult to
find. With the progress of intelligence
there has been vast multiplication of
human desires and the desires Of yes.
terday become the necessities of today.
These desires have taken an intensely
material turn. All poor men long to
be rich and all rich men long to be
richer. There is no satisfying this
craving. 1t burns with a constant con
Stunning fire. If all men were made
equally intelligent, discomfort would
remain; If all men were made equally
comfortable, it would rage on. Neither
intelligence, wealth nor power can ex.
Orcise the spirit of discomfort. But

us, in anarchy and destruction. Opt. |

If WE correctly understand, the sup
RENE court has decided that neither
county commissioners nor county tax
collectors can legally withhold any
part of the money collected for city
taxes for the purpose of compromising
the collector, We do not know what
the practice has been, but believe that
the county collector withheld, as COM
pensation, the same percentage on city
taxes as he was allowed for collecting
county taxes. The city council may
find it profitable to inquire into this
matter. The City of Moscow recently
recovered $76697 under this decision
of the supreme counrt and Caldwell
may be equally fortunate.

IT IS hoped the people of Caldwell
and vicinity interested in the Caldwell
Irrigation district, will not forget that
the regular election of district officers
occurs in about month. A mass
meeting should be held in the next ten
days and candidates nominated for the
various offices. The establishment and
successful operation of the district
means more to Canyon county than
any other enterprise now in contempla
ton. Therefore THE TRIBUNE urges
that active ard immediate interest be
taken to the end that good snd COM
petent set of officers may be elected.

lNrEREsr AND usuRY,

TIE agitation for the enactment of
law to reduce the legal rate of interest
opens up a broad and important ques
ton. At one time the collecting Of any
amount of interest on money loaned
was deemed a moral wrong and called
usury. Tut It is no longer considered
more wrong TO take pay for the use of
money than for the use of horses, car
Fiages and houses. However, the in.
fuence of earlier opinions still linger
and manifests itself in statutory laws
placing limit on the rate of interest
which may legally be demanded and
collected. Any one attempting to
exact a higher interest than the legal
rate, is held guilty of usury and liable
to punishment generally by loss of both
principal and interest. The tendency
no doubt is towards iberalizing usaFy
laws; that is, permitting the right of
unrestricted private contract with res.
pect to money the same as any other
commodity. This places money trans
actions on precisely the same plane as
hire, or sale and purchase, in general,
The wisdom Of this tendency may well
be questioned in view of the general
purpose OF law and the perculiar nat,
ure Of money. There is no other COM
modify which occupies the same DOM
mating position with respect to human
affairs that money does. Therefore
1t clothes its possessors with almost
unlimited power. The disposition of
man is to exert that power, and it too
often occurs that it is not exerted for
benevolent purposes. But, neVerthe-
less, the possessor of money, as of any
other valuable thing, has rights which
must be respected. And in the enact,
ment Of laws designed to regulate the
business Of money lending the equities
should not be overlooked. There is
one class Of borrowers who are liable
to be oppressed and around these just
protection should be thrown. Refer
enoe is made to poor men who temper
arily find themselves in embarrassed
circumstance; to farmers who borrow
for the purpose of improving their
holdings; to the victims of sudden and
unusual misfortune, and indeed all
that worthy class who resort to the
money lender only in extremity. But
there is a class of borrowers, and in
deed the most important of all consid-
cred from the amount of their transac.
tions, who borrow only for speculative
purposes They pay six per cent for
money because they believe they can
make it yield ~ or 10 per cent; or they
pay IL per cent because they believe
they can make "a or SO per cent. The
difficulty is to devise a law that will
protect the man who borrows from me-
cessity and at the same time operate
justly between the money lender and
the purely speculative borrower. If
the Idaho legislature can formulate
and enact such law it will have con-
ferred priceless boon on humanity
and receive the plaudits of the world.
We suspect, however, the interest ques.
tion will ultimately be settled either by
making the payment of money for the
use of money entirely unlawful or by
permitting the same latitude in money
transactions as in hire and exchange of
property in general.
