One maiden got an Easter card

While gazing thoughtfully upon it,
Then seWed two strings on overnight
And wore it for an Easter bonnet.

IT WILL be gratifying to the
public to know that an entente
eOgdiale has been established be-
tween the Hon. c. Julius Bassett,
Commissioner of Labor, Statistics
and Immigration and THE TR1B-
UNE, In fact we have become
right chummy, and now Mr.. Bas-
sett has his mail sent in our care,
and intends, no doubt, to make
THE TRIBUNE office his head
quarters and make us his princi-
pal confdante and adviser. In
cidentally, Of course, he will give
us nice slice of the printing
which is placed at his disposal.
We hardly expected so much
consideration at the Commission
er's hands and cannot think that
we actually deserve it, but at the
same time we feel to congratulate
him for exercising so much wis
dom and sound discretion. We
do not know the exact date when
Mr.. Bassett will visit us and con-
clude the arrangements by which
we are to unitedly run the Immi-
grafton Bureau but the time is
near at hand, otherwise, he would
have directed us how to forward
his mail. It win go hard with
papers and printers who have
been smotheriug Mr.. Bassett with
adulation when they discover that
he has .shook" them all TO show
er favors on us.

The assessor gets $4,000 and the
commissioners get 5000 each.
But il is unnecessary TO prosecute

from any point. 1t is unjust in
its practical operation and con-
duciye Of extravaganza, dishon-
esty and incompetency.

THE SALARY BILL.

The first experiment with the
salary bill passed last winter has
demonstrated that bill to be a
miserable failure. Its only effect
will be to increase the cost of
government and decrease the eff
feciency of official services. To
appreciate the workings of the
measure it is only necessary to
glance at the schedule of salaries
fixed BY the commissioners of the
variors counties and published in
this paper. Take for example
Oneida and Canyon counties.
These counties are approximately
the same in population and as
sessed valuation, and the official
services required will not mater
tally differ in quantity or quality.
In Oneida county the assessor
and collector is given $1,000 a
year; in Canyon county $4,000,
nearly double. In Oneida county
the sheriff is allowed 5000 and no
deputy; in Conyon, $18oo and a
deputy at 5000, or three times as
much In Oneida, the clerk gets

SOME weeks ago THE TRrB-
uNE suggested that the way for
Caldwell to procure a grist mill
was to give the bonus the people
were then raising for the benefit
Of a stranger to one of our own
people. 1t is gratifying to know
that the force and wisdom of that
suggestion has been appreciated,
and steps taken to have Mr.. S. S.
Foote erect a mill near this place.
That is exactly right, and moth
ing should prevent the consum-
nation of the enterprise. In our
judgment it is the wisest thing
this community has done for
some time. Now all those who
subscribed to the original bonus
ought to transfer their subscrip-
ton to Mr.. Foote and when pos
sible Increase the amount of it, so
that there may be no failure.

THE PHILOSOPHY or II.

The people Of Canyon County.
in the exercise Of their sovereign
rights, last fall elected a board Of
county commissioners a majority
Of whom were known to be
sound adherents Of 10 to and
enthusiastic disciples Of economic
reform Now, those commits
sioners have, in the interest Of 10
TO / and economic reform, voted
themselves a salary, which, com :
puted on the basis Of days actually
devoted TO the public services,
amounts 10 about $1,000 per an
nun or upwards Of $40 day.
This, we may admit, is not Mig
gardly compensation, and the
commissioners might have made
it more without exceeding the
maximum. We understand that
Mr.. Foote was disposed to even
make it less, but he was over
ruled by the more generous inn
pulses Of Messrs. Shaw and Ry-
der, which was most providen-
tial escape from the evils Of pau
per labor and the malignant ten
denotes Of gold bugism. Atroot,
the philosophy Of TOTO I is sim
ply high wages. The object of
10 to is to depress the value of
money and enhance the price Of
human sacrifice. The commits
sioners are clearly exefapliffyintgg
in themselves the beauties Of the
philosophy which they and their
constituents delight to eXpound.
II they had the power fhey|
would no doubt raise the prizes of
all things to correspond with
their own salaries. That would
make sugar four bits a pound,
and calico about eighty cents
yard. The trouble is that the
legislature did not clothe the COM
missioners with sufficient power,
and the legislature is wholly 10
blame for it. 1t is not right to
find fault with the commissioners
for fixing comfortable salaries for
themselves. Twenty or twenty
five dollors a day is none too much
for the human sacrifice involved.
Indeed, i is rather scrimp. In
stead Of criticising the commits
sioners we should laud them and
applaud them as practical ex-
lmples Of the beneiicence of rs
Q I. And more strength should
oe given to their arm so that they
'ould raise everybody's wages
md heave some more on their
'wn. A few narrow, envious
people intimate that the commits
toners could not make a quarter
i the amount in any private en-
'loyment, but that is all wrong.
The commissioners could make It
if they had the fixing
+ their own wages, Why, under
roper conditions they could
make ten times as much.

are roaring loud and long about
it. Some people are too envious
for anything Thirty dollars a
day Is little enough for a well
matured commissioner who is al
so a genuine sixteen TO oner.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1899-04-22

he wrote and published this:
aBorah has found out perhap,
that while he may own an inter-
est in the supreme court and hold
a mortgage on our district court,
he has no strings on Stcunen-
berg" We wish the Rccoya
would state just what he intended
to convey, because he denies in
tending to cast any reflection up-
on the integrity Of the court.
Again in commenting upon the
action Of The court for f1ning him,
the editor Of the Record says:
"but he cake Horn was brought
before his honor and as it was a
case where three aces, before the
draw were no good, he passed
the call was mulched (mulct
4
is probably intended) for SIS and
trimmings. The dignity of the
court must be maintained at all
hazard. Seer" We wish the
editor of the Record would tell
us what his intentions" were Eat
/
the time" he wrote that. Did he
mean that he submitted to being
mulcted simply because the court
had the power to enforce its de-
crees without respect to truth or
justice? Did he mean that in a
fair "show down" he held the
"top hand" but that the court
held the gun, or that in Judge
Stewards court, when the Judge
is in the game, four flush in the
hands of the judiciary beats three
aces in the hands of the culprit at
barr In short, did not the Record
mean to say that given a fair
chance it would be able to prove
that the district court was mort
gagged to Mr.. Borah? What,
again, does the Record mean by
saying that "the dignity of the
court must be maintained at all
hazard? Did the court impose
a fine on Mr.. Jake Horn at the
risk of its own reputation for
justice2 Did the court stoop TO
the little vilIainy of furnishing an
old and loyal adherent in order TO
maintain show of dignity? 1t
seems to us that Mr.. Horn is dis |
posed to cover up his natural pro-
pensitY for prevarication at "all |
hazards" However, we do not
hesitate to state that either MIR.
Horn made very penitent, doll
orous and humble plea before the
court, which touched the heart of
the Judge, or the court values its
dignity very lightly. Had we
accused the Hon. Geo. H. Stew
art of being mortgeged to Mr..
Borah, we would have been
obliged to prove it orr take pun
shment commensurate with the
offense. No plea of incontinent
ying or innocent imbecility would
nave softened the court towards
is, and had we attempted to get
evenge by covert slurs, conveyed
n the language of gamblers, we
would have paid such a penalty
IS would have enabled us to APP
'reciate the real value Of the
ourts dignity.
