A Doubtful Influence"

We don't know just what "influ
ence" was brought to bear upon
the individual officers composing
the State Board of Equaliz alton,
but it is clear that there was an
influence and that it was stuff
cient to make them forget their
duty and their honesty. There is
not a member of the Board of
Equalization who does not know
that he or she has been dishonest,
if not corrupt, in the matter of the
railroad assessments. There is not
a member of the board who assented
to the railroad valuation for 1899,
who does not know that he or she
Yielded to an influence or a pres.
sure that WAS dishonest and en-
tirely contrary to the best interests
of the state. In Bannock county
the general valuation of all prop.
erty was raised 100 per cent. In
some counties it was little less,
but the average increase in valua-
ton in the state was about 10 per
cent. The valuation of railroad
property was increased only from
20 to 80 per cent. Thus it will be
seen that the railroads will this
year pay, proportiouately, from 40
to so per cent less taxes than they
have heretofore and we do not be-
lieve that any one except the paid
agents of the railroad companies
will argue that they have been
taxed too high in the past. The
work of the Board of Equalization
means simply that an additional
burden of taxation has been placed
upon all property other than rail
road property.
Such action was not expected
| from this reform" administration
and we are informed that they had
promised to do differently We
know that members OF the official
family gave it out before the Board
of Equalization met that the main
line assessment would not be less
than $40, 500 per mile. Some influ'
ence, however, was brought to beai
and we find main line assessment:
finally fixed by the board at $50 so
We are informed that Governor
Steunenberg deceived the assessors
of the state; that he, in fact. LIED

A War Well-Financed.

History will give the admins
tration high credit for the financial
management Of the war with Spain
and the war that followed it as an
unwelcome but unavoidable sequel.
The cost has been far less than
was anticipated before hostilities
began. Var taxes were wisely
imposed at the beginning of the
conflict and the country, in spite
of greatly increased expenditure,
has avoided formidable accumula
ton OF debt. Most ofthe expenses
of the war were charged up during
the last fiscal year ending June 80.
The deficit for the year was $50,
600, 600, much less than any of the
estimates. 7 is years prospect is
that the treasury will keep even,
or nearly so. Revenue is increas-
ing aud expenses falling off. The
navy costs but little more now
than on a peace footing. Congress
appropriated $50, 900, 900 for the
authorized army of 100, 900 men.
The cost OF maintaining the army
in the Philippines is not yet close
ly ascertained, but it will be moth.
ing unusual except in the matter OF
transport ~ troops Manila is All
ideal base for convenience and
security. and camp ,igning in Lu-
ron will be more expensive thar
elsewhere. Carrying army sup
plies in ships is the cheapest
method known.
Nothing in the condition of the
treasury indicates that heavy tase'
will be necessary and those il
existence bear lightly upon tn,
people. There is an ample bal
ance of cash on hand. The UuiteC
States came out OF the war will
Spain in extraordinarily gooo
financial shape, and paid larg'
sum to the defeated nation insteat
of asking one. At the end o
modern wars, as rule, both com
batants have contended with hug
additions to national debts anC
have been compelled to meet tn,
emergency with increased taxation

the average estimate of the probable
cost was about $500, 900, 600. Tha

at Boise Gall the assessors of the
state except one being presently,
Governor Steunenberg appeared be-
fore them. In reply to the sugges-
ton OF several of the assessors that
the railroad valuations might not
be brought up to the actual cash
figures and hardship thus worked
upon all other property, the Gov
ernor assured them that it was the
intention to follow the new law
strictly, and he urged the assessors
to do so, assuring them that the
State Board would make proper
tiouate increase in the valuation of
the railroad property.
| The assessors Of the state have
very generally tried to follow the
new revenue law strictly. They
have done their duties well, but the
State Board of Equalization has
entirely failed to perform its sworn
duty. 1t has yielded to an inhu.
ence or a pressure of some kind and
placed an unfair burd II upon the
people of the state. This State
Board of Equalization is composed
