The "transient editor" afore-
mentioned is grateful to the Index
for this kindly expression of APP
probation. At the same time, we
could wish that the Records

at an individual opponent, is a
most drastic arrangement of a ma
jority of the people of Caldwell.
1t is as if the Record had said,

and bigoted, could say a meaner
thing than that about those who

the editor of the Record and the
putative editor of such ignomlny,
although they have never, even
by implication, offered any better
excuse for their late conduct. In
this connection it may be re-
that the sstransient editor
of THE TRIBUNE" had nothing
whatever to do with making up
the issues of the city election.
He took no part, personally or by
proxy, in the conventions which
named the candidates and defined
the issues. He spent no time
previously to those conventions in
trying to ingratiate himself with
the women of Caldwell by posing
as a moral evangel. He never
assumed the role of ibeled limo
cence or virtuous model; he is not
eminent in two secret societies
which are founded in religion and
sound morality, and whose mem
Oers make moral and intellectual
welfare their chiefest aim; but
when the issue was made up, he
stood for those principles of which
he regalia of Past Grand Masters
are emblematical, but whose aus
wearers have not al
ways the courage to support.

episode has brought into painful
prominence the ruling character
istics of some of our most distin-
guished citizens. 1t is also serv-
ing to rivet the attention of the
whole county upon their methods.
1t will be fortunate, indeed, if
Caldwell as a whole is not, at last,
held accountable for the vicious
and unreasonable conduct of a few
individuals whose principal claim
to distinction is a disposition to
rule or ruin. Might it not be now
a good time for the we'll disposed
members of this community to APP
ply a little reason and common
sense to the problem that con-
fronts them? They must know,
or, at least, they ought to know,
that the time is passed when
propositions can be rammed down
peoples throats without respect to
law or decency. There are some
though who do not seem to justly
appreciate this significant fact,
and to them we propose to adj
dress a few plain words respect
ing this bridge matter. Four or
five years ago Board of Com
missioners of Canyon County
awarded to a certain company a
contract to build two bridges
across the Boise river. They did
it in a method unwarranted by
the Constitution of this State;
they did it in direct opposition to
the advice of their legal adviser;
they did it without color of
authority of law and in open vio-
1ation of law. The people to
whom the contract was awarded
were appraised of the illegal nature
of the Commissioner proceed
ings, and to that extent became
their accomplices in an unlawful
act. Ii, then, there should be
some who believe that there was
a tjob" in the transaction, it is not
to be wondered at. Men do not
often combine in offenses against
laws for worthy
motives. Be this as it may, the
affair drifted along until an at
tempt was made to refund the
debt. Prospective purch-
asers of bonds came here and ex-
amined into the condition of our
fiscal affairs. They discovered
that bridge warrants had been
issued in violation of the State
Constitution. They declined to
purchase Canyon County bonds
because of the issuance of these
illegal warrants. Here then was
the first blow at the credit of this
The issue of an illegal
warrant by a Board of County
Commissioners means that there
is either rank dishonesty or Grass
ignorance at bottom, and people
do not like to handle the paper Of
a county which is run by such
men. The first step taken in an
attempt to remedy the error of
conscience or understanding com
mitted by that Board was to have
he Supreme Court of the State
pass upon the validity of those
bridge warrants. The court pro- |

long as Mr.. Gillette permitted his
bridge to lie upon the public high
way, he was estopPed from pre-
venting people to travel over it
If the Commissioners of Canyon
County had wished to conduct
themselves as men, they would
have given Mr.. Gillette "a hours
in which to tear up his bridge and
haul it away. viii not the people
of Canyon County take notice Of
this? We doubt not. Do the
people of Caldwell flatter them
selves with the notion that all the
rest of the people of the county
are blind as bats? Do the people
of Caldwell console themselves
with the thought that this whole
miserable business will not be
aired and shaken until it becomes
a public ridicule, or, possibly
worse, public scandal? Oh,
shame, that grown up men, sup
posed to be in possession Of rea-
sonable faculties should resort to
such transparent, such wretched
articles. Let us look for one
moment at the utter absurdity of
Mr.. Gillette's conduct and at the
stupid staging of the Commission
ers. When the Gillette-Herzog
company engaged to build the
Boise bridges, they were advised
that the business was illegal, but
they took the chances. The SUI
preme Court, without reference
to the good or bad faith of Gil
lette-Herzog, declared the bridge
warrants invalid. That positively
prohibited their payment. Neither
the people of Caldwell nor the
people of Canyon County could
change the status of those war
rants. Nothing save an amend
ment of the constitution could do
it. The only lawful way in
which Gillette Herzog could be
reimbursed was by submitting to
the people of the county whether
or not they would purchase the
bridges and tax themselves to pay
for them. This had not been
done. The people have had no
opportunity to express themselves
on the subject, Mr.. Gillette has
no reason to believe that the
people are unwilling to pay a
reasonable price for his bridges,
at least, he had none until he per-
petrated the bluff of last week.
We believe that had the question
been legally and properly sub
the people would have
voted almost unanimously to buy
and pay for the bridges. We
still hope they will do what is
tight and honorable despite Mr..
Gillette's insulting jugglery and
he inane compliance of the com
nissioners, but we cannot answer
.or them. If they refuse, Mr..
Gillette may thank himself
md few particular friends for it.
We sincerely hope that this is the
md of the bridge business, but it
nay just as well be understood
low that no money will be paid
'ut of the treasury of Canyon
County to pay for those bridges
until the people, in the exercise of
heir constitutional rights, author
re it to be done. And it may as
we'll be understood that this is a
natter which concerns every tax |

but we had in Canyon County a
Board that seemed to be physically
incapable Of pursuing a straight
forward course. Instead of fol-
lowing the Constitutional method
of submitting directly to the tax
payers of the county whether or
not certain specified extraordinary
expenses should be incurred for
the purchase or construction of
certain bridges, they patched up
scheme by which they expected
to perform an impossible feat.
They proposed that the voters of
Canyon County should abrogate
the State constitution by making
thing legal which the constitu-
ton and the Supreme Court de-
clared to be illegal. They were
going to validate invalid warrants;
that is, inject legality and honesty
into illegal and dishonest obi
cations. Not only this, but they
proposed to advance those in
validated warrants to a position
of superiority and make the hold
ers of them preferred creditors
above all others. This ambitious
and most dubious scheme failed,
and the only wonder is that it
ever received moments serious
consideration from intelligent and
honest men. The failure of the
project is in part charged against
THE TRIBUNE. 1t is true we did
not support it, and had we done
so we should to this day be in
mortal dread of either the Ward
en- of the Penitenitary or the
Superintendent of the Insane asy-
lum. On the other hand, We
did not much oppose the scheme,
because, outside of a few inter
ested parties, we could not mag
inc that any one would be silly
enough to support it. The fact
of the matter is that it made not
a particle of difference which way
the election might go, the bridge
warrants would have remained
invalid, and they never would
have been paid. The county
auditor would never have issued
them unless he longed to serve
out term in the penitentiary, |
we happen to know, was
not his disposition, Again the
case went into court and, at least,
one worthy commissioner nearly
broke his heart because he was
not permitted to negotiate a pri-
vate settlement of the affair. The
poor, deluded soul believed that
in his official bosom
authority to legalize
crime, to reverse the Supreme
Court and to annul the State cons
titution, and, with pity we say it,
there are others. Judge Beatty's
decision was the last result of the
bridge business in court, and it
only emphasized the fact that the
warrants issued for the construc-
ton of the bridges were irretriev-
ably invalid. Now comes Mr..
Gillette and nails up the bridge
near Caldwell and at once the
town is thrown into a panic.

THE BUG BOOK.

State Board of Horticultural In
spection, was issued Bulletin No.
J." popularity known as the "Bug
Book. 1t contains recipes for
preventing and exterminating the
mandibulate and haustellate, also
communications from first class
ornithologists who entertain tender
sentiments toward the Kohlmeise
and blue vitrol. A great many
formidable looking scientific words
are introduced parenthetically in
order to establish the erudition of
the author. We annex a few
specimens for the enlightenment
of crude minds: "Order Lepid-
iptera," which means a worm with
whiskers on; "Clisiocopma
Americana" an aboriginese that
dwells in a tent; "IIyphantria
Cunea," appears in the fall, hence
its name, and may be attacked in
its tent with comparative safety;
"Chrysobothris Fermorata," this
is a son-of-a-gun on wheels,
meaning hot stuff. "Schizoneura
Lanigera Hansm," this is wart
maker of predictions industry,
woody as Texas buccaroo, shoot
him on sight. We think, though,
the CylindrosporiumPadi" is the
most terrible of all the enemies of
mankind. The depredations of
this fell destroyer are not confined
to pure horticultural products, but
he invades the vegetable kingdom
and assails the fragrant Boston
bean and the sacred pumpkin pie.
His name is an indication of his
iconoclastic rapacity. Nothing
but "remedy No. I" will satiate
this omniverous creature and rem
der him innocuous. 1t should be
fed to him with a large hypo-
dermic syringe. If he resist this
treatment, try submarine mine
and report results to the nearest
Horticultural Inspector. We are
very proud of the "Bug Book"
because it shows that learning is
not dead in Idaho and that State
which contains men who can spell
"Cylindrosporiumpadi" is State
of potential intellect. This tech
nical treatise came from the |
presses owned by the Hon. M. B.
Gwinn of Caldwell, who is
periodically concerned in the
PRONUNCIATION of "Bug Books"
Mr.. Gwinn appears to have visited
the City Of Payette recently with |
view to impressing upon Presi-
dent w. A. Coughanour the vast
cost of printing book filed with
octosyllabic scientific vocables.
But President Coughanour
doesn't know much about the
intricacies of the craft and prob
ably couldn't tell a Typoaspidotus
Perniciosus from shooting stick.
He couldn't understand why a
"Bug Book" containing an ento-
biological vocabulary should cost
any more than a Russian genoa
logical tree. So when the Hop.
Gwinn requested his endorsement
of 5000 bill, President Cough
amour demurred. He even went
so far as to question the reason
ableness of it, and submitted the
bill to poor but healthy printer
