BLOOD ON THE MOON.

Ex-senator Dubois was inter
viewed by Salt Lake Tribune
representative on the second day
of this month, at Ogden. Among
other things Mr.. Dubois said:
"The Silver Republican party is
the only party that can win on the
silver platform. The Democratic
party has tried and failed, because
there was not enough Democrats
to win, even when helped by their
allies. The Democratic party had
acted in such a manner as to
greatly endanger the silver cause
by placing party before principle,
and alternating much support from
it because of its democratic
party's) selfishness."
Mr.. Dubois Ostensibly has ref
erence to National politics, but
his remarks have local applica-
ton which means that he has had
enough of Democracy, enough of
Populism and surfeit of political
potpourri. 1t gives THE TRIBUNE
much pleasure to note a clearing
away of the political fogs which
have of late confused Mr.. Dubois
intellect, but his judgment is yet
at fault. Nationally, the Silver
Republican party is very insig-
nificant factor, and even locally it
can not win; for just as sure as
the National Democracy hold fast
to the Chicago-St. Louis combi-
nation platform, just so sure will
the Democrats and a major por-
ton of the Populists of Idaho fuse.
1t has been the general impress
sion that there would be a union
of Democrats and Silver Repub-
lieans in this State, but if Mr..
Dubois language means anything
and we take him to be sim
cere-it means that that scheme
has been abandoned; it means
that the ex-senator has no faith
in Democratic free silver profess

he helped to formulate. We Won
der if he will announce to the
world that he, then a man OF
years, and learned in the law,
solemniy subscribed to State
Constitution, incompatible with
the fundamental law of the Unit :
ed States. What would the Hon.
President of the Constitutional
Convention, VIM. H. Claggett,
and George Ainslie, and the
Shade of John S. Gray, and Sol
Hasbrouek, and c. M. Hays, and
w. B. Hepburn, and Judge May
hew, and ex-Chief Justice Nor
gan, and Judge Standrod and
Judge Sweet say to such proceed
ings? We wonder zVhat zvOuld
all those able and learned men
think if Judge Beatty, in the
capacity of United States Judge,
should decide that there wasn't
brains enough in the convention
to formulate Constitutional cons
titution. But Judge Beatty is not
going to commit any such folly.
We believe he will say that Sec.
8 of Article VIII is sound doc
trine; that no Board of Commits
sioners can disregard it and be-
come a law unto themselves. We
believe the decision in the United
States Court will follow strictly
the decisions of our State Su-
preme Court. Judge Beatty has
no ambition to emulate Ross of
California. He is not seeking
fame in that direction. He will
say to the people of Idaho, You
have a very good provision in
your State Constitution for check
ing the follies and extravagances
of County Commissioners. Il
helped to put that provision in,
know it IS good. Judg-
ment for defendant. Costs as
sessed against plaintiff, Call the
next case Mr.. Clerk.

sions, and views with contempt
the utter selfshness of the Demo-
cratic party. Mr.. Dubois opinion
of Democrats should carry weight.
His intimate relations with them
during the past year and half
have given him ample opportunity
and peculiar advantages for study
ing their ruling characteristics.
He says the dominating passions
of Democracy are disregard Of
principle, party fanatcism and
selfshness, qualities which render
association with them intolerable
to men of honorable and generous
impulses. Such being the facts
land coming from such an author
ity who will dispute them?) there
stands between Mr.. Dubois and
Democracy moral barrier which
he cannot cross without defile-
ment. AS before said, we be-
lieve that Mr.. Dubois is sincere,
and believing, trust that he will
never again endanger his chastity
by association with unclean things.
We do not know how our friends,
the Democrats, will regard Mr..
Dubois very frank and forcible
exposure of their infirmities, but
that is of little consequence, as he
has arrived at the parting of the
ways and hereafter can meet
them only as political enemies.
The cords have been sundered,
the tomahawk unearthed, the
scalping knife unsheathed and
there is blood on the moon.
These be the times that stir mems
souls and make politics a drafted
precarious business.

very early adopted the views
presented by THE TRIBUNE and
conformabIe to his advice, the
Board of Commissioners, of which
M. B. Gwinn was chairman, re-
fused, in January 1884, to employ,
at county cost, deputies for the
clerk and sheriff. Among the
general taxpayers, THE TRIBUNE
received sort of platonic support
or none at all. The newspapers
of the State were in the main
silent, or critical of THE TRI-
BUNE's position. They were en-
crossed in meditations on larger
and profounder poiitico-econom-
les. Their minds sought to pierce
the mysteries of Finance, Foreign
Relations, Government by Injunc-
ton, Relations of Capital and
Labor, Government Ownership,
Initiative and Referendum and like
questions. THE TRIBUNE be-
longed to a meaner level. We
could not grasp these great and
abstruse subjects. We had never
attained to the sublunity of
thinker" In our simple way
saw that our friends and neigh
bors, the taxpayers of Canyon
County, were being defrauded,
and as best we could, set about
putting a stop to the business, Just
like saving wood or digging post
holes. OF course, THE TRIBUNE
would like to be a thinker"
We would rejoice to mingle with
profundity and solve the tremend-
Gus and the insoluble; but the good
Lord, in the dispensation of his
grace, saw fit to give unto us a
lowly mission and we must bear
the yoke in humble gratefulness.
We do not expect to ever know
much about paramount Issues"
and other questions with appal-
ling names and plenteous hyphens,

WE woN5ER.

Possibly at this moment, while
jotting down these few thoughts,
the story of the Bridges" is
being recited for the edifcation of
Judge Beatty, United States Dis
trict Judge, under title of The
Gillett-Herzog Co., against Can
yon County. We wonder whether
or not the honorable Judge can be
induced to believe that the peo-
pie of this County have any in
clination to repudiate an honest
obligation, and, so believing, will
sustain an unconstitutional act
performed by a Board of County
Commissioners. We wonder, if
after reading Section 3 of Article
viii. of our State Constitution,
Judge Beatty will assume to avoid,
nullify and destroy that wise and
providental section. 1t reads as
follows:
SEQ. 3. No county, city, town, town
ship, board Ore ducation, or school dis
trict, or other subdivision of the State,
shall incur any Indebtedness, or liabil.
ity in any manner, or for any purpose,
exceeding in that year, the income and
revenue provided for it for such year,
without the assent of two. thirds of the
qualified electors thereof, voting at an
election to be held for that purpose,
nor, unless, before or at the time of in
curing such indebtedness provision
shall be made for the collection of an
annual tax sufficient to pay the interest
on such Indebtedness as it falls due, and
also to constitute a sinking fund for
the payment of the principal thereof,
within twenty years from the time of
contracting the same. ANY indebted
ness or liability incurred contrary to
this provision shall be void: Pro.

construed to apply to the ordinary and
necessary expenses authorized by the
general laws OF the State.

LAST CHAPTER or THE DEPUTY
QUESTION.

TRIBUNE said to the people of
Canyon county, your money is
being unlawfully and unjustly ex-
pended in the payment of salaries
to deputy clerks and deputy
sheriffs. At that time, if our
memory serves us correctly, a
deputy sheriff was being paid out
of the county funds, SIS per
month, and a deputy clerk SIS or
$500 per month. The TRIBUNE
regarded the payment Of these
deputy officers in that manner as
a clear robbery of the taxpayers.
We took the position that it was
the intention of the trainers of the
Constitution that these offices
should be self-sustaining when
ever the revenues of the Offices
exceeded the minimum cempen-
sation; that is to say, that when
ever the fees collected by any
sheriff or clerk should fall below
the $1,000 mark for sheriff, or
$500 mark for clerk, then the
taxpayers must make up the
shortage. We also took the
ground that no clerk or sheriff
was entitled to deputy at county
cost under any circumstances but
that, if the revenue of any such
office exceeded the maximum
salary provided in the Constitu-
ton, then, the Commissioners, in
the exercise of wise and reason
able discretion, might apply such
portion of the excess revenue to
the payment of such deputies and
clerical assistants as the business
of the Office might require. 1t is
not necessary to comment further
along this line. The Supreme
Courts decision appears else
where in this paper and supports
our contention made four years
ago. THE TRIBUNE was the first
paper in the state to take, up this
question; it is the only paper that
continued the agitation and in con-
sequence there has been a saving
to the taxpayers of this county of
hundreds upon hundreds of dol
lars, and to the state, of thousands
upon thousands. When THE
TRIBUNE first took up the subject
but few there were who agreed
with us. There was one man,
however, it would be an injustice
not to mention in this connection.
Reference is made to John T.
Morrison, Esq, of this place, to
whom THE TRIBUNE is indebted |
for much valuable legal informa-
ton on the subject. From a COM
mon sense view, Mr., Morrison at
once saw the injustice of employ |
ing deputies for sheriffs and clerks
at county cost. He then gave
his attention to the legal aspects
of the subject and became con-
WINGED that to do so was unlaw-
full. He took the Campbell case
into the Supreme Conrt where he
secured a favorable decision, but
the decision rested upon a techni-
cality, which, of course, was not
decisive of the main issue. This
was unsatisfactory to all con
cerned, especially so to Mr.. Nor
rison. However the main point
has now been decided, and Mr..
contention fully sus-
tanned. In order to do accurate
justice, it is proper to also men

A LAND CONTEST.

Henry Hewlett of Eagle River, is
putting up fight before the U. S.
Land Office in this city to retain his
homestead which is situated near the
village of Eagle River, in Villas county
which homestead he had supposed was
his property beyond question, as he
had made final proof in support of his
claim. Hewlett took up the claim
originally in December, 1890, and he
had quite fight for his rights subse-
quently as two other settlers claimed
the same land. He came out of the
squabble with 100 acres clear of con-
test. Last year, the time having ar
rived for making final proof he came
to Wausau with his witnesses and made
his proof in due form.
Now comes VIM. Becker, who claims
that the testimony which was intro
duced by Hewlett at the time of MAX
ing his proof was untrue, and that he
can prove that Hewlett did not live on
the land during portion of the time,
in fact that his practical abandonment
of the claim is so well established as to
be common knowledge in and around
Eagle River. The department at
Washington entertained the applica-
ton to reopen the case, and ordered
that an examination of witnesses be
held at the local land office to establish
or defeat the charge of fraud Wau-
