GOOD MOVE.

The people will hail with JOY the
news that their is now a well defined
movement to make a public exarnpleo Of
the so1did and short sighted Express
Companies who ir the hour of their
country S need sought by every trick
and evasion to shirk the wal tax.
This is to be done by having the
Government run opposition IS such
a manne as to deprive the CON panies
Of much Of their valuable patronage,
the movement is well under way in
East, and has reached this coast. It
came III the form OF a long letter from
the Chamber Of Commerce of Detroit,
Mich, TO the Manufactures and Pro,
ducers Association Of San Francisco.
The Eastern body asks the local
commercial bodies to joir with it in an
effort to secure from the next Congress
the passage of a bill providing for
lower parcel postage rates and an eX-
tension of the system to foreign
countries.
This is to be effected by having the
local bodies induce the Pacific Coast
Senators and Representatives TO sup
port the measure when it NJ up
for action. the Congressional
strength of the movement in the East
is already considerable, but the CO
operation OF those in the West is also
needed. Under the present system
Uncle Sam carries parcels up to fou1
pounds N weight in the mails, for
which he charges at the rate Of abou'
, cents per ounce. In England anC
Continental Europe packages weigh
ing as much as twelve pounds art
carried for a SUN not exceeding ?,
cents. Nearly all Of the countries o
Europe have arrangements by which
they receive and handle each other
postal packages, under the same con
ditions as in the country from whici
they are shipped.
1t is the desire of the Eastern mer
chants to not only have the rates de
creased, but have it so that package
corresponding in size to those carrie
in Europe may be received and de
livered by the postal service. 1t
further proposed to have the systel
extended into the European countries

MEASURING THE LANDSLIDE.

In correctly estimating a landslide,
ii is customary to size VI the number
of cubic yards of earth displaced.
Much has been said of late regard
ing the so-called Republican land
slide in the east.
Measuring the cubic yards Of votes,
Congressman and Senators displaced
we find the following:
Roosevelt elected Governor Of New
York by a plurality of 5000 a fall
ing off of $4,000 votes from the Re
publican majority Of two years ago.
In Massachusetts, the Republicans
elected Wolcott by a plurality of 49,
500 a falling off of I2I 900 votes from
their victory OF 1896.
Here are indications from two great
States. In Pennsylvania the success
full Republican can0i5 ates did not re-
ceive a majority of all the votes cast
In the Lower House Of Congress the
present EepuDllCan majority OF ~
will be reduced to IS when Congress
convenes this winter.
The only gam the Republicans car
show is eight seats in the Senate.
The eastern elections show a grea'
falling off of votes in the face Of the
fact that the country through its
natural patriotism felt OF or les
bound to uphold the Administration
in connection with the Spanish war.
Measured up by the cold facts pre-
scented by the official figures the Re
publicans landslide does not seen
a thing to maze much note of.

do her own work" This supreme

LEE WrLL REMlfN.

From the standpoint Of international
relations no incident that has arisen
between tho United States and Spain
since the blowing mp OF the Maine is
OF the Importance that attaches to the
request OF the Madrid government Tor
the recall OF Consul General Lee, aud
President McKinley's prompt and drm
refusal to consider IT, 1t is principle
well established in the law OF nations
that when a government, TO which Is
accredited diplomatic or consular
agent, requests his recall by the ac'
crediting power, the request Is at once
granted and not intro quently without
inquiry. During the Chilian difficulty
the United States similarly declined TO
recall its consular representative. But
President Mckinley has done right in
refusing to Rccsde to Spain's desire, u
desire that is prompted by the wish "a
be rid OF a man who can be relied upon
properly to look after American inter
ests. a man who ia well posted on the
situation in Cuba.
The refusal to recall General Lee IL
direct slap in the face Of Spain,
sharp, htinging slap, but blow de
served. II anything we're needed e

OF the president this incident shoulC
furnish 1t.
once more the Spanish press will
bristle, Havana will no doubt effer
vesce and the consul general will b.

On Thursday Of last week the com

plicasion in the district court TO bond

obligations consisted OF Judgment
against the county rendered in court
during the past term. j. c. Moore, OF
Enid, representing the Taxpayers
league, fled an Injunction petition
asking the court to restrain the com
mssioneTs from bonding. Judge Tars-
ney decided that Mr. Moore and his
clients we're not in court. "a said that
the time to have made the light was
when the Judgments we're being taken
and not to allow the judgmest taken
and then come in and ask the court TO
restrain itself by granting an injunc
tion TO prevent commissioners and
court from bonding. Both Moore ana
the relator In the case insisted that
they should be heard. The court in
| formed them that they we're mot in
court and advised them TO refer their
troubles to mass meeting or a politi-
cal convention. Judgment bonds
amounting TO s22 900 we're issued.
Thus another vexsd question Is settled
in this county aud long controversy
ended In rendering his decision
Judge Tarsney said that IL was an In
suit TO the court to como with peti
tion asking q restraining order TO pre-

disions The decision is received very
favorably by the real Taxpayers OF the
