Where the Money Goes.

The Tribune has started to tell
the people where the money saved
to the taxpayers had gone, and it
has received some unexpected help
from the Boise Statesman that in
recent issue exposed one OF the
neat little jobs that the state Off
Gals manipulating to rake into pri
vate Golfers the money saved the
taxpayers. The Statesman Says
The state land board finds it,
self again in a peck of trouble over
the timber land question Severe
criticisms are heard anent the ap-
pointment if an outsider to ap-
praise tie land and also on account
of the amount Of money it is said
the appraiser is promised. The
man employed by the, majority of
the board is Mr.. Gates Of, Eagle
Mills, Ark, and he is promised, it
is said, $4,000 for the work, which
will cover a period of two months,
whereas the law specifies the pay
shall be Blu: IS day and 10 cents
a mile.
THE appointment was made by
Governor Steunenberg and Secre-
tary of State Lewis, brother-in-law
Of Mr.. Gates. Attorney General
Mcfarland was absent at the time
and refuses to take any responsible
ity in the premises. 1t is said the
board will be enjoined from paying
Gates the amount agreed upon.

The New York Journal has been
a leader OF the press of the nation
in severe criticism of the conduct
OF the war, but Mr.. Hearst its pro-
prietor visited Cuba personally and
acknowledges that his preconceived
notions of the possibility of smash

than Gilderoy's Kite, by what he

Mr.. Hearst makes public his

The spirit of the army is high.
The officers have full control Of the

Close of a Prosperous Fiscal Year.

The fiscal year ended with June
20 was one ofthe most remark
able in our history.
1t will be long remembered for
the unprecedented values of its eX-
ports, particularly of breadstuffs,
the consequent return ofprosperity
to the agricultural masses, and the
tangible evidences of the tact that
we have at last ceased to be a
HOPELESS debtor to the old world and
can draw payment in cash for ex-
cess of merchandise sent abroad.
OF the past ten fiscal years every
one of the first eight was marked
by net exports of gold-S325 ooo,-
900 net IN the eight years not
wilhstanding the fact that in the
same period our excess OF merchant
disc exports over imports was
S725. 900, 900 and ne, exports of
silver $I72, 900, 900. III other
words, in that period our excess
Of exports over imports. counting
silver, gold and goods, was SI.22o, :
900. 900. 1t seemed as if we were
pouring our substance into a bot
tomless pit
Beginning year or two before
the Barring crash of 1890, it seemed
that Europe had begun to return
our securities. The failure of the
big banking concern and the sue.
ceeding wave of panic in South
America and Australia stimulated
this conversion Of our securities
into cash. and in 1901 we exported
sos. 600. 600 of gold, while the loss
Of confidence in our currency in
1868 led to $S7, 900, 900 Of the yell
low metal being drawn away from
MS in that year. 1t was the same
story OF constant loss Of gold every
twelvemonth until that ended June
50. 1897. Then the returning food
OF securities seemed to decrease
and the persistent volume Of mer-
chandise exports began to tell. In
that twelvemontll we broke all
records with a merchandise balance
Of $2B, 900, 900 in our favor, and
we drew back 81 900, 600 gold
across the water.
In the year just ended we have
ag lin broken all records with ex.
ports of more than 5000, 900, 900
Of observation-disclosures than half
of this bteadstuffs alone-leaving a
halancr Of probably $4,000, 900
in ourfavor, besides some $50, ooo,-
900 ofsilver. and we have again
kept at home our domestic output
Of gold aud made net draft of
more than 500, ooo. 900 Of it from
the rest Of the world--an absolute
y Unprecedented amount.

tanning a signature by false pretenses,
for which he was indicted by the
grand jury last May, was brought from
Chicago today by Deputy Sheriff A.
A De Lue and turned over to the
Rock Island county authorities.
To permit friends to visit the mem

Another democratic convention will
have to be held by the democrats of
the SD senatorial district. At the reg
ular convention of last June the NOM
ination of candidate for state sena-
tor was left with the senatorial COM
mittee. Subsequently the committee
met and nominated Hon. j. H. Multi
gan for senator. The legality of such
proceedings have since been ques-
toned. The senatorial committee has
called another convention at Cam
bridge next Thursday.
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1898-09-17
Why of Course.

Last week the live stock shippers
of the state got good practical taste
of the fact that the republican party
is in the hands of the corporations. If
the democrats need any proof TO es-
tablish their charge that the republi-
can party can always be depended on
to serve the corporations the live
live stock shippers of the state can
furnish it. In addition to the already
high freight rates the railroads sever
al years ago levied a tax of 81 per
car on all cars of live stock taken by
them to the Union stock yards, Chica-
go, designating this additional rob-
berry terminal charge There, of
course, was great objection to this
steal, and the railroads called it off
for awhile. In 1894 they reimposed
it, and they have been charging it
ever since. The shippers filed a COM
plant before the democratic board of
railroad commissioners and the dem
ocrats promptly declared the charge
illegal and excessive. A complaint
was also filed before the interstate
commerce commission and it declared
the charges illegal. The railroads
refused to obey the commissioners,
and before the democratic commits
sioners went out of Office they brought
legal proceedings to compel the rail-
roads to obey the ruling. The ship
pers, however, got tired of the laws
delay and recently petitioned the re-
publican board of railroad commits
sioners to lower the live stock rates in
Illinois so as to even up with the
shippers. This presented clear cut
case for the commission involving
corporation robbery on one hand and
the interest of the robbed on the
other. What do you suppose the re-
publican commission did Tith athis,
righteous petition? 1t refused to
grant it. The present republican
leaders seem to be repaying the rail
roads for the substantial support they
gave Mckinley and Tanner in 1896.
Stop and think what this little favor
to the railroads mean. There are on
an average 300, 900 cars of live stock
shipped into the Union stock yards
every year. Multiply this by and
we have a favor worth 5000, 600 a year
to the railroads. This cool robbery
of the public is calculated TO make
mans blood boil when he leans back
in his chair and looks at it squarely in
the face.
