THE TRIBUNE gives publicity to the
following letter because it seems to be a
matter Of great public Importance. It is
very hard to believe that what it states
is true, yet the statements are direct
and backed by a responsible signature,
1t is given to readers of THE TRIBUNE
for what it is worth. 1t will be remem-
bered that at the January meeting the
Honorable Board of County Commits
siouers of Canyon County appointed a
board of experts to ascertain at So
per day, whether or not Jake Horn had
stolen anything from Canyon County
during the years of 1895 and 1886
Originally the boardI of experts was
composed of three experts, but two of
them declined to serve. AS at present
constituted the board has but two ex-
perts, Mr.. II p. Handy being the orig
iaal member and Mr.. L. s. Ollie, sub
stituted for members resigned. 1t is
generally deemed essential that men
who are engaged by the public to ferrit
out official wrongs should be men of
character. The following communica-.
ton casts shade of doubt upon the
character of expert Handy but no
doubt he will be able 10 dissipate it.
Here is the letter:
Nampa Idaho, 2-I5-97.
Caldwell, Idaho,
Dear Sir; do not know as the people
know it generally but the principal
member of the experts examining the
county records, Mr.. Handy, has but
recently had the privilege of allowing
his hair and whiskers to grow long,
having been in the State boarding
house in Colorado for a few years, for
grand larceny, think. And those who
are acquainted with his past say he
has always been a slippery customer
Also. those who know him, say he is
wholly incompetent to expert books.
In addition, he said he believed Horn
was all right, before he made an ex-
animation. There can be no satisfac-
ton with such men to examine books.
For private reasons the signature to
the foregoing is withheld at present,
but will be given if occasion requires

COOKING AND EATING.
Not Every Man Knows How to Do Either
Properly.

Not Every Man Knows How to Do Either
Properly.
At one time. some 200 or 300 years
ago, Italy held the palm for cookery,
and the French Knocked at what
Montaigne termed lie science de guelle.
| Then came other days, when mssters
| of the art, such as Bechameil, E;aitre
d'hotel of Louis and Magnificent, and
/ Vatel, the famous steward of the
| prince de COnde. ruled over the
aesthetics of the dinner table, and
when great ladies, even princesses of
the royal blood and mattresses en-
tire, thought it no indignity to direct
the course of a dish or to themselves
prepare it. Princess Soubise invented
the puree d'oignons that is even now
called after her. The princess of
Conte gave her name to a particular
mode of serving a breast of mutton;
the duchess of Muiily, vying with
her, to special way of dressing leg
of the same Wand. The gentle Louise
de la Valliere was great adept in all
culinary lore, and Nine. de Maintenon,
femme savante as she was, would her.
self prepare les colelettes of papillote
for the detection of her royal master.
In fact, so alarmed was she when
Louis XIV. showed a prediction for
carre du mouton la Conte that she
called in Pere Lachaise, who, in his
turn, invoked the aid of another
priest, with the triumphant result
that Canard au Pere Douillet is known
historically of having been the dish
that weaned the too-susceptibIe mon
arch from the pitfalls of the princess
and fixed him in the paths of virtue by
the side of the Widow Scarron.
With all due respect to Mgr. Savarin,
it is not every man of sense who knows
how to eat. Witness the first Napoleon
and the great Carlyle, men who
swallowed their food in great gulps,
running alike their health and, what is
Synonymous with health, their temDers
also. Every one is not like Mr.. Glad
stone, who lays it down as an axiom,
and acts upon it, too, that food should
be turned over in the mouth at least
25 or 80 times before it is finally swal-
lowed, so do not deceive yourselves.
The most important hour that a day
has in store for you, the axle on which
all else turns-health, business. wealth,
happiness-is that hour which is ush-
cred in by what what Byron calls the
tocsin of the SOUL" that is, the dinner
bell. 1t is a time for which to prepare
ourselves with n solemnity befitting
such a grave occasion and is not to be
rushed into lightly, as if it were of
little or no moment. Otherwise, how
has it arisen that the favored ones Of
the earth habitually cast off the gar
ments of toll, the coat of varied hues
and unmentionable garments of un-
varied form, and attire themselves de
rigueur whenever it is question of

that this legislature would be unusually hos
tile to corporations and other special inter-

credence, but IL can venture to do so without
oienSe, 1 would advise that all Legislation
should be- along high lines and characterized
by wise conservatism and the spirit OF absolute
justice, The state can not afford to make war
on any legitimate interest-for war means to
tear down and destroy. not to create and build
up. The property OF Coz poratiOns is the proper
ty of the citizen. 1t is entitled to the same
measure OF protection accorded the possess
sons Cf others. and should be required TO bear
only its Just and equal proportion Of the pub

ment Of corporations should exist but no law
which unfairly discriminates against them
should be enacted. No important Legislation
should be attempted until the situation II deals
with is fully understood and the effect Of the
legislation thoroughly weighed The thing 1
counsel IS moderation. the thing advise against
is injustice. A spirit OF resentment should
never give direction TO public policy nor WELD
an influence over those charged with public
functions. No man Is worthy to I'LL public sta

TO EXPEDITE PENSION CLAIMS.

Commissioner Evans.


The Eject OF a New Order Issued by
Commissioners Evans.
WASHINGTON, Dec, 97.--A new or
der the enforcement of which 1t is be-
lleved will expedite the disposition of
pension claims now pending has been
issued by Commissioner Evans, of the
pension office. 1t is as follows: Here
after claims for increase OF pension Will
not be considered within twelve months
from the last actlon-allowance or re-
lection"
THE necessity for the order" said an
official OF the pension bureau to-day,
grows largely out OF the calls made on
the Office for statement of the status
Of pending cases by members of con-
gress These calls have to be answered
to the exclusion of the other claims
pending, which should be taken up in
their order. 1t Is only fair to those
cases which have not had any consid-
Grafton that they should be taken up
as promptly as possible. The office
does not think that any injustice or
hardship Win result 10 claimants by re-
fuslng 10 reconsider their cases after It
has once been acted on for period OF
twelve months, II a pension Is allowed
n new disability OF such character as
to bring about serious results Is not
likely to develop within that period;
while II the claim Is rejected because
of lack OF disability the claimant in all
probability will not become 50 disabled
within the twelve months as to make a
postponement OF the case u hardship
The order Is absolutely necessary for
the prompt prosecution OF the work Of
the bureau and its enforcement viii aid
