A Word Personal.

The statement is made that the
FREE PRESS is not in sympathy
with the common people because
its editor does not JON the dema-
gogs in the hue and cry against
the prevailing rate of high taxa
ton. The explanation is very
simple. The older residents of the
county will remember that when
the state constitution was before
the people for ratification in 1889
the FREE Press opposed its adop-
tion for the very reason, as we
pointed out week by week through
these columns, that statehood un-
der that constitution would add
enormously to the expenses of
maintaining the county govern
ments, and therefore would obvi-
ously and necessarily entail upon
the people a higher rate Of taxa
tion. We did our very best to
prevent the adoption of the state
constitution, and being showed
under by the popular vote we yield
to the will of the overwhelming
majority and take our medicine
Cn the form of higher taxes) with
the vast majority of our fellow
citizens who thought their judg-
! ment and foresight superior to
ours, We made our fight and lost
and "haye no kick coming
AS a matter of fact the prevail
ing rate of high taxation is simply
another illustration of cause and
| effect. Eating salt creates thirst.
County government under state
hood costs more than it did under
the old territorial regime-and
there you are. This is the whole
matter in nutshell, and all the
fanatic denagogery of oflice-seek-
ing demagogs cannot alter the
frozen facts as we have stated
them. The people wanted a state
form of government, and as soon
as the provisions of the state con-
stitution were enacted into law
they had to pay for the privilege
of statehood in the form of in
creased taxes.
Neither republicans, democrats
or demagogs can alter the situa-
ton as it stands now. The only
relief obtainable is by increasing
the valuation of the property for
taxable purposes, or by devising
additional ways ofraising revenue.
On this subject we have some sug-
gestions to offer later which are
efficient and practical.

Relief Creek Quartz Mines,

Joe Schooner was out from Relief
creek last week with samples of
ore from the Grangeville ledge on
which he has been doing develop
ment work this winter. Messrs.
JAS. Edwards, w. w. Brown and
Henry Wax are interested with
him in six locations, ON all oi
which good quartz has been found.
On the Yellow Rose they have a
l03-foot tunnel and 4-fOot vein,
3O-foOt tunnel on the August
Flower with 81 foot vein, and a
15-foot cut and 40-foot tunnel on
the Grangeville, with 3-foot vein
which assays $S7.95 gold per ton
all across the ledge. These prop
critics adjoin the Cleveland group
upon which three men are steadily
employed, making good progress
with very satisfactory showings
In our Judgment Relief creek will
prove to be the best and mos,
profitable gold quartz camp ir
