THE BRIDGES.

The taxpayers of this county
will soon have an opportunity to
vote upon the question of author
izing the construction of three
bridges. In considering this
question it seems to us there are
only two things to be taken into
account, first, the necessity, and,
second, the expense. They are
perfectly competent to determine
upon these points, and their con :
clusions will no doubt be correct.
There is one point, however,
upon which they should be per-
fectly clear. They are under no
obligation to vote for the con-
struction of either of those bridg-
es on account of any former con-
tract, But they should not vote
against the bridges because of
such contracts. The question
should be considered on its mer-
its, and as one newly arisen. The
TRIBUNE is unequivocally in favor
of all legitimate public improve
nents. 1t believes that good
roads and convenient bridges are
more essential than any other
class of improvements. Money
spent for these purposes is money
we'll invested. If the necessity

PRESIDENT oAuLr REMOVED

Prof. F. B. Gault has been re-
moved from the presidency of the
State University. So far as can
be learned there are no charges
laid against his management of
the institution. The impression
prevails among prominent and in
fluential men, irrespective of par
ty or creed, that the removal
came in response to the demands
of political expediency. 1t is
possibly a part of the co-operat-
i've deal but of the, Sweet rather
than the Dubois complexion.
Prof. Gault had from the begin
ming been a most efficient and in
dustrious officer. To him is large
ly due the present excellent con-
dition Of the University. He is a
man of splendid executive ability
and untiring energy, and it is
therefore deplorable if he has
been sacrificed to further the sell
fish political schemes of the pres
ent administration. 1t shall be
said to the credit of Messrs For
ney and Smith, regents, that they
opposed Gault's removal, and I'M
less good cause can be shown, let
it be to the lasting disgrace of
Martin, Cornwall and Mrs. Whit
man that they caused it. The
public demands an explanation.

LET'S COOPERATE.

The gold bugs of Oregon are
riding on the crest of the wave,
and good many of us Idahoans
do not relish the fact very much.
Indeed, it gives us a regular bad
pain. Again, therefore, we lift
up our voice for union, or rather
corporation. No matter what
Billy Borah says about the filth
and slime of fusion. No matter
what vile, transitory animal he
likens it to, the goldbug is upon
us and we of the silver faith must
cooperate or bust. Elder Du-
bois, speaking to the Latter Day
Saints, has sounded the wild
alarm and warning tocsin. He
said: at is an assured fact that
so far as the Mormon people are
concerned the intermountain states
will remain in the ranks of BIZ
metalism. 1t is important that
they should thus remain, because
when the faith shall flee from us,
l doubt if it will find any abiding
place in the civilized world" So
the Mormon church is at last the
sole assured repository of the true
faith and, Elder Dubois prognos-
tiCates that when it shall flee from
Gus" it will vanish from the civil
lied world. It will not do at all
to let the Ark of the Covenant
get away from us, hence we must
cooperate to keep it on the reser-
walton. What if the Lewiston
Patriot sings of union as arrayed
in the habiliaments of a dream,
we must Cooperate, or "the
faith" will tuck its tail and flee
into the wilderness of barbaritv.
These are doleful disheartening
sounds that come from every
quarter: Dubois lamenting in
Zion, Borah disappearing in Boise,
the Patriot piping a melancholy
refrain in Lewiston, and the gold
bugs rampant and triumphant in
Oregon. But let us Cooperate
and be quick about it, for "tho
faith" is growing weaker and
more slippery every day. 1t will
barely sustain us through another
campaign unless we corral and
bottle it. If it should get loose
and skip out of the civilized
world, that would settle it.

Our esteemed contemporary
the .Sizver Champion, is also
troubled over our comment on the
Jones appointment, and is pleased
to remark: "Every other paper
| in the state \ either APP
plauded the appointment OF Col.
Jones or kept silent" If that were
true, it would signify nothing ex-
cept that the TRIBUNE has the
audacity to have and express
opinions of its own--a thing Sutt-
GENTLY rare in Idaho journalism,
perhaps, to alarm those complal-
SAINT editors who get their ideas
as sick men do their physic, by
prescription, or as women cut
their gowns-by the fashion
plates. The SflUer Champion is
also pleased to discover a faunt-
ing of the bloody shirt. That is a
convenient and Serviceable APP
partition. 1t is made to do duty
on every possible occasion and
haunts a certain class of patriots
as snakes do the victim of deliri-
UNI tremens. During the past
three or four months we have been
reading carefully the silver pa
pers of this state. In that time
they have charged on the Presi-
dent of the Uuited Stetes, his
Cabinet and the Republican mem
bers of Congress every wicked
ness and folly possible of COM
mission by public men. The
President has been denounced as
puppet, as venal, as cowardly,
as vacillating. His cabinet have
collectively and individually been
subjected to the same miserable
aspersions. The majority in Con-
gress is charged with wilfully and
maliciously supporting measures
dictated by avarice and treason
Wall Street and the pestiferous
monopolies are said to control the
government for their own selfish
purposes and to the end that the
prosperity and liberty of the peo-
pie may be forever crushed and
destroyed. All this reasonable
Juror is raised in the name of an
exalted patriotism. 1t is what
the silver champion of every de-
gree calls Fighting for the cause"
Recently silver papers have been
printing an article containing a
long list of names of military ap-
pointees, the object of which, as
stated, is to show that the Presi-
dent of the United States, in the
matter of appointments, is guided
wholly by political considerations.
The appointees are designated as
dudes and incompetents, having
no claim to consideration except
the wealth and political influence
of their fathers. That kind of
thing in the estimation of the sill
yer patriots is legitimate, is glori-
Gus. 1t is part of the sublime
struggle for the divine ratio of 16

fiuence for good over this com
munity unequaled by any other
agency, and it is therefore graft
flying to note its constant and sub
stantial growth. 1t is making a
deep impress on the character
and lives of many of the young
men and women of this locality,
which will shape their future
course and thereby mould the
thought and sentiment of genera
tons to come. Silently but surely
it is working changes in the very
structure of society, giving new
ideas and ideals, new motives and
purposes to individuals, infusing a
higher and better spirit into COM
munities and, working from the
ground upward, purifying and
elevating the whole organism.
Every year young men and young
women, rude from natures hand,
awkward in body and mind, with
narrow vision and dwarfed per-
spective, enter the college door to
emerge few years hence with
splendid physical and mental
graces, features moulded to reflect
the light of intelligence, quicken
ed, broadened and noble aspira-
tons, looking forward with hope
and assurance to a life of useful
ness and honor. Rejecting upon
this institution the mind runs in
tuitively to pleasant speculation,
In a few years the responsibilities
of life will all devolve on those
young men and women who today
are the college boys and girls.
Then the beautiful precepts and
theories which they have woven
into essay and Grafton, or pro-
nounced in defamation, will be-
come Tor should) rules Of con-
duct. Living up to them, being
guided in their social intercourse
by them, will be the every day
privilege of their lives. If they
should cast their lots in this place,
and conform themselves to the
ideals they have so recently and
beautifully painted, what a truly
grand and perfect community
they would form-a community
animated by the highest and
broadest impulses of benevolence,
piety, industry, honor and patriot
ism-a community where no
mean act could enter, where no
injustice could be done, where no
impurity could exist. But they
may not quite come up to their
ideals. Human nature is weak
and erring. The passions are
strong and the pathway of life is
beset with pitfalls and tempta-
tons. They have however rec
ognized and learned to love the
good and the beautiful. Their
thoughts and aspirations have
been directed in proper channels;
the stamp of virtue has been i'm
pressed on their souls, which
though sometimes dimmed or
obscured, will never be effaced.
The world will be better because
they have lived and advanced.
We would here remind them that

ETHICS or CLOTHES.


Class Distinctions E6Aoed. Yet the Dress
stin Proelaims the Man.
In those days whom to speak of man as
gentleman was to say that no was for
tunately distinguished by his birth as be-
ing above and, as 1t were, Of race apart
from the masses Of the population, gen.
tleman was outwardly distinguished by
his clothes, which differed in many ways
besides their splendor from those affected
by the canaille. At that period the occu-
patton peculiar TO gentlemen was the con-
duct Of the government, but now when
gentlemen are found In every walk Of life
and the word implies simply the posses
sion Of estimable inward qualities we all
dress pretty much alike. When the sword
indicated the man s rank, he might choose
his colors and the fashion Of his clothes to
suit himself, butat present, when the dress
Of man conveys nothing Of his station
In lifc beyond the indications Of material
prosperity, uniformity and the avoidance
Of display are sought.
Apart from the effacement Of class dis
tinotions 10 dress, which 1T took centuries
to compass, no greater change has come
over this matter CT clothes than one which
has been accomplished within tho memory
of man. We may reprove the tendency Of
our men Of leisure to copy rather than
emulate our English brethren in dress and
department, but 1t Is undoubtedly to them
we owe our love for outdoor sports, and it
Is this, spreading marvelously even within
the past few years, which has improved
the breed Of men and changed the character
Of their clothes. The dandy no longer
trips In dainty shoes and shuns exertion,
but Is proud Of his square shoulders and
deep chest, and his dress Is distinguished
not more by its neatness and accuracy Of
detail than by It's simplicity, comfort and
serviceability.
The manliness which Ia the keynote Of
this change finds no greater expression
than In the avoidance Of all pretense, sham
and vain show and In the perfect fitness Of
the clothes of a gentleman OF TASTE In
spite Of the abandonment of arbitrary class
distinction in apparel, IT Is BY DO means
difficult to recognize gcntient1h Us such.
by his clothes Quite apart from the neat
ness and avoidance of any conspicuous
ness, which it should be unnecessary to
mention, is the absolute simplicity and
reality Of everything he has on and its fit
ness for the occupation in hand. This fit
ness Is tho essence Of good form in clothes,
and as 1t has its seat in the most rigid
common sense it is singular that it Is in
this that gaucheries should most frequent
ly occur.-American Wool and Cotton Ro-

A gallant Indian fighter, known to tho

city does not injure the sewer. Charles G..

Mr.. Rodney said that he was also of the
opinion that the state did not intend to
tax the railroads, but the law as Il stands
covers them. The court will be over a
month In fixing the tax rate, as it will take
some time to figure up the revenue TO DO
derived from the tax law.
