This prediction. The people have had
enough ofthis demo.sil. racket, they
ysmember the delegation to the last
legislature, they want no more such,
they want no more democrats to
warm the governors chair, they do
not care for any more such mongrel
legislatures, they are.now demand

county affairs, and they will vote a
change, they are sick and tired of
the lying politicians and the office
seeking demagogues who care, only
for the Doodle there is ip the office,
The democratic leaders are out for

rUnite Or Die"

When school boy ! remember
seeing a picture of a procession OF
farmers and workingmen carrying
a banner on which appeared the
representation of dismembered
snake and underneath, the above
inscription, The circumstances thai
brought forth the above were very
similar to those that today confront
the reform forces of this country,
the people were oppressed by heavy
taxes and the burden of keeping W
y corrupt government, and receiv
ing no benefit from the tyrants wht
oppressed them, Even SO tits today

have been no question as'to who
would have filled the presidents
chairaor sleptin his bed. Nov let
us come nearer home and see why
a union Of forces is necessary In
this county, there is state Of I'M
rest among the people as to why
we are taxed SO high in Idaho coun.
ty. In one short article i cannot
treat these causes exclusively in
tho first place the assessments
should be entirely remodeled but it
seems that we must bend tho knee
to the supreme court, an idotof our
own creating, and cannot remodel
or change anything unless we first
gain the consent Of q handful Of
public servants; majority'o of whom
are scarce fit to fill common ranch
hands position, | am well aware
that these public parasites are look
ed on by many as being made of
more than ordinary clay, but SUCH
is not the case and it more frequent
~ happens that they are simply
the offal of the public pottery works,
but because'th they are soft and pliable
are put in such places by the
bosses that they may the more
easily control the guliible fools that
do follow them, secondly; there is
a big leak through the heavy road
bills presented TO the commissioners
at each session Of the board radical
changes are necessary in our road
laws and these changes can only be
brought about by eliminating any-
thing like ''ring CONTROL from our
county politics. There are other
places where retrenchment can be
made with good results, but Will
not speak OF them here.
TO gain a hearing at court we
must haye an advocate there and
the only way to get one is by unit
ing, the peoples party in Idaho Co.,
! can demand q fair share OF the Of
fees in the coming campaign, for
the simple reason that they have
the balance Of power and can throw
the election Of any official where
| they may, and should therefore die
tate fair and honorable terms to
that party which would ally its
self with us in the coming struggle,
That change of administration is
demanded in the county affairs was
evidenced last summer by the great
pressure brought to bear upon the
commissioners as to the appoint
ment of an expert to examine the
county records, this resulted in an
almost useless expenditure Of mon
ey, The proper thing to do is to ex :
pert the candidates before they are
elected, in order to institute any
reforms, the peoples party must haye
1T least balance OF power in the
coming legislative assembly, can
this be done by working alone? an
examination of the election returns
| for 96 will be sufficient to answer
| that question so far as idaho coun-
ty is concerned. ] believe that an
alliance, honorable and defensive
should be with that party or parties
that offer the most advantageous
terms, such alliance to be made at
no Sacrifices Of party principles and
o extend no further than county
officials and mem bers Of the legisla-
| ture, To effect any change in our
present condition will require our
delegation to the state capital to be
thoroughly reform one.
We must curtail the power OF the
Supreme court so that the will of
the people, as expressed by their
representatives, shall be eonsumated

An interesting incident of the fire last
night was the valiant work of man of
the wandering Willie" type who joined
with one of the companies in fighting
the flames. His work bore out his story
that he had had experience on Phiia.
delphla fire company, and his eagerness
to push to the front cost him a pair of
shoes. In fighting the flames from the
roof the intense heat of the corrugated
iron burned the leather so that he was
forced to retire to prevent blistering his
feet. He gave his name as Charles
Baxter and claims to be brother of the
chief of the Philadelphia department.
He will probably be given a job on the
city force of men now extending the
Chautauqua water mains.
