DANGERS DE THE GRIP.

The greatest danger from la grippe is of
its resulting in pneumonia. If reason
able care is used, however, and Cham.
berlain's Cough Remedy taken, all dan
ger will be avoided. Among the tens of
thousands who have used this remedy for
la grippe we have yet to learn OF a single
case having resulted in pneumonia which
shows conclusively that this remedy is a
certain preventative Of that dangerous
disease. 1t will cure la grippe in less
time than any other treatment. 1t is
pleasant and safe to take. For sale by

That Gov. Steunenberg is an
honest official has been known for a
long time. That he is not afraid
to assume responsibility of his acts
is now known to the United States.
Recently he wrote that the state as
sumed all responsibility for the
prosecution OF the Occur d'Alene
dynamiters. The democrats in
Ohio said his letter was a political
mistake for them. The Governor
answered hal political reasons
would not influence him into sad
ding any of his acts onto other
people. What he did he would
acknowledge, irrespective of politi-
cal consequences to any party. 1t
is refreshing TO learn that Idaho has
a governor who is not swayed from
the truth by the threats of partisans.

ABOUT TAXES

Since Assessor Howellhas sent out
his tax cards there has been no end
of comment on the tax question.
In many case taxes r higher than
last year, and some cases lower, and
the levy is lower. This is account.
ed for ina great measure, by the rate
placed on cattle by the state asses
sors meeting. Cattle are now as
sesscd at &22 a head, as against $ll
last year. Then, we believe, sheep
are also rated higher, being put at
*2.7e perhead. AS compared with
other property these two items are
about the only things that are
worth more than they were last year.
And most everyone in Bear Lake
outside the towns own more or less
cattle or sheep, hence their assessed
valuation is higher. To compen-
safe for this the rate is lower by
v and one-half mills. The
county will raise about the same
amount as last year, and this in
cludes $4,000 bounty, too. So
really it looks as though the county's
actual expenses would be less than
usual. The railway will pay very
nearly as much into the county trea-
sury as in other years. And thus it
seems, if some one is paying more
taxes than before, the same pro-
portion of some other property is
paying less.
Here in Montpelier the city and
school tax in the upper district is
81 mills, 6 for the city and Is for
the schools. In the lower district
the two make 10 mills, l3 of which
is for school purposes. This is a
higher levy than usual for the lower
district. These levies added to the
county's "a mills makes indeed a
high tax, especially when we con-
slider that the assessed valuation of
the city has been materially in.
creased.
However, we cannot see how the
taxes IA be more all the way around.
as some assert, for the county only
collects about as much as usual
Therefore if some pay more Others
must pay less.
There are some who blame the as
SCISSOR and others who say the com
m%issioners are responsible, but il
fact neither are. The assessor hai
not raised cattle or sheep; it wai
done by the state board ON the JUS
grounds that these items were NOR
valuable than formerly. The samt
is true with the commissioners
They have fixed the levy as low al
possible and 1t will only raise suf
ficient to pay the actual running
expenses of the county. These ex
pesos are certainly as low at the
can be.
Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1899-11-01

The man who owns cattle or sheep
can more easily pay his taxes this
fall than a man who owns a house
and lot or a small farm. Cattle are
a cash proposition, while land and
houses are not salable at anything
near their value. We say this be-
cause it is the cattle and sheep
owners whose valuations have been
raised the most.
