Now that exchange OF thought is
so rapid and certain among the
nations, the country, which. owing
TO defective methods OF melting out
justice to its Inhabitants. makes a
false or fatal move, is quickly made
the target Of the criticisms, by the
whole. civilized world; as evinced
by the results Of the Dreyfus court
martial, 80 called. Having made
what they believed to be false step
in the first trial OF Dreyfus, the
French Government summoned
him from the dank recess of his iiv-
ing tomb, to which they had ban
ished him. In order to shield the
real traitors-officers, high in rank,
they, despite the protestations of
tho blind Goddess OF Justice, who
is generally Of easy virtue, exhumed
him. only to heap new indignities |
and fortunes upon this man. who

THE NATIONS WAR.

Mcklnley'S war on the Fill
pinos" is q phrase much affected
by Irany Of our anti-expansion
contemporaries. 1t originated with
the organs Of the Anti Imperial
league, and we think it would have
been wiser on the part of the more
conservative opponents OF theAd-
ministration had they kept their
hands off that piece OF property
and permitted the Atkinsonians to
have the sole use of their invention.
1t never pays in politics more
than in business or social matters
to be untruthful. The voting
masses may be deceived for time
by misrepresentation, but finally
"the truth comes uppermost."
They may be so ignorant Of the
Constitution and laws of the Unit
ed States and the facts of the sit
uation that they can be made to
belicvethat one man has made and
is carrying on war on the Filipinos.'
But the number of such cred
ulo us persons is not great, and
even their phenomenal capacity for
believing things may be overtaxed
30 far as to produce reaction. 1t
is simple justice to President Nc
Kinley to recall the fact that, if he
could have had his way, there
would have been no war last year
nor this, no war with Spain in 1898
eading up to the Philippine trou-
Die of 1899. Had the pressure for
var not been increased beyond his
n any other mans power Of resist
nee by the tragedy in Havana har-
'or on FEBRUARY is, 1898, there is
very reason to believe that peace
'ould have been preserved; that
pain would have let 60 her hold
n Cuba, thus relieving the intoler-
BILE situation" that constitutes the
zsus 6slli. While President Nc
-inley was working towards that
'nsummation against great opposi

is hope Of peace to the winds and
ade war inevitable. A genera

ousands of citizens on the Union

sre on the other side. They call
that mighty upheaval "Lincolns

lrase, intended to serve an un-
triotic purpose. There is not
ach similarity between that

ppression of Tagal insurgents.

The Social Science Association of
Honolulu met last evening at the home
OF Mr.. w. r. Castle. The paper for the
occasion was read by Prof w. d. Alex
ander, the Hawaiian historian, and was
"A Study of the Population Question
in France" The principal causes Of
the remarkably high death rate of
Paris were given as greater intensity
of the struggle for life, unsanitary con-
ditions, alcoholism, and other vices"
These were the conclusions reached by
the author of the paper:
"A disinterested spectator must ad-
NIT that some of the symptoms which
we have been considering are those of
decadent race, and that there is am
pie cause for solicitude on the part of
patriotic Frenchmen. Still we are not
yet prepared to include France in the
class of dying nations referred to by
Lord Salisbury in a recent speech.
"A nation of thirty-eight million
souls. which by its agriculture, its
commerce, and its manufactures, is
one OF the richest on the globe, and
by its intellectual activity in lltera-
ture, science and art Is one of the
chief factors in modern civilization,
and which has displayed such extra
ordinary recuperative power under dis
aster, is not to be hastily despaired of.
Nor has the time yet arrived to write

HIS PRIVATE CHARACTER.

Laramie's churches have not been the
least of her semi+public institutions
and at times in early days it required
some courage to take an active part in
OF the city to the present time, Hon.
Otto Gramm has lent his great inf uence
and add to all organizations of a Chris
ufan character, but more particularly TO
the Episcopal church, with which he is
united In financial matters his judg-
ment and good management have been
the construction of the bishops house
and the beautiful st. Matthews "a
thedral, Mr.. Gramm was Bishop Tai
bots right hand man, and during the
great financial panic there were many
trying matters to be met and disposed
OF. Practical experience did the bust
mess. Although a man almost unlimit-
ed In resource, Bishop Talbot needed
just such advice, counsel and aid as
Mr.. Gramm was able to give him.
From a very small beginning, the Epis-
copal church society in this city and
state has been builded into a large,
strong, permanent and progressive or
g~anization, whose power for good is
i~ncalculable.
During all the years Of his residence
in Laramie, Mr.. Gramm's character has
shone IL a beacon light for the good
Of the young men Of this state. His
sobriety, industry, philanthropy, purity
in private and public life and noble pur-
pose have been as a guiding star to
lead them on to acts of kindness. gem
erosity and love, and to instill into
their lives an ambition to rise to the
loftier planes of human endeavor. Such
men carry a nation to a higher and
purer civilization and advance the in
terests of the sciences and the arts in
all ages and chimes.
Wyoming would do herself proud by
sending Mr.. Gramm to the United
States senate, for through his great
ability, activity and sterling integrity
she would reap a rich reward.

A SQUARE DEAL WANTED.

We wish Assessor Reals all the sue
cess in the world in the selection OF his
deputies. And after the deputies are
selected we hope all old assessment
and the property of the county listed
and assessed in accordance with its
value. All taxpayers should be upon
an equality and there should be
no favored classes. If every man could
be compelled to bear his fair share of
the burden of taxation, the levy in this
county would be considerably reduced.
Our present law is not a good one,
but Judgment in selecting deputies will
go a long way toward equality in Its
enforcement. The legislature should
pass a law repeating the present law
and providing for one assessor in each
county. The assessor should be paid
a salary commensurate with the du-
ties of the office and should be a man
who has some knowledge of values and
equity. There is no reason on earth
why two assessments should be taken
of property in Incorporated towns and
cities. The state law should require
county assessors to turn over to the
mayor and council of incorporated
cities copies of their rolls, receiving
fair compensation therefore. The hum
bug of two assessments has been work
ed upon the people quite long enough.
The Republican believes that the
taxpayers of Laramie have some rights
which assessors and boards of equal
ization are bound to respect. If the
state board of equalization fixes the
value of cattle at SIG and the value of
railway and other corporate property
coming under their supervision at less
than so per cent of its actual cash val
ne, then the assessed value of town lots
and improvements should be fixed to
correspond. With cattle at SIG n
about half the actrral number returned
to the assessors, mot to exceed 20 per
cent OF the values in cattle assist in
bearing the burden of government. 1t
Ia the same with other live stock,
horves possibly excepted.
TINS year let us have a fair deal
Let every man honestly list all his
properly and bear the burden of gov
ernm,ent equally with his neighbor, no
mnUuer what his occupation may be.
