When the county salary bill was
under consideration by the legisla-
ture the maximum pay proposed by
the original bill for county COM
missioners was raised to 81 600 be-
cause of the additional, and yery
important, duties laid upon those
officials by the irrigation law in
connection with the adjustment of
water rates. In view of this fea-
ture Of the enactment of the law it
is somewhat interesting to find that
the commissioners Of Kootenai
county voted themselves maximum
salaries. There is plenty of water
up there, and the commissioners
probably reason that it will not be
their fault if nobody seeks to have
rates fixed for it.

There is no way TO keep them from

1t is expected the limitation of the fran
chisc will he ratified.
CHAIRMAN SIMMONS VIEWS.
Your correspondent to- day had an in
terVlcw with Democratic State Chair
man Simmons in regard to the fran
chise amendment TO the constitution.
Mr.. Simmons said: There is in tins
Democratic Legislative caucus no diff
ference OF opinion as 10 reporting the
amendment favorably. There is a lit
tie difference as to details. All will be
fully agreed on, and then the amend
ment Will pass with practical unanimi-
ty. Tho only difference is as to the
Limitation OF the grandfather clause"
The argument is made by some per-
sons that the requirement OF the bill
that, after 1904 no person can vote who
cannot read the constitution, is assert
ed by some to be n hardship, and as
tending to diifranchise white persons,
because in the extreme West there are
persons who are so bitterly opposed to
education that they Will not send their
children To school. On the other hand
1t is said that this particular feature
OF the bill will force such people to al
low their children to be educated; and
that 1t is entirely proper so to force
them. as there is no reason why there
should be an uneducated child in all
North Carolina.

Public opinion created by newspapers

more and more recognized as a 'potent
factor in public life. The most remark
able case that Is prominently before the
people Of this ,country Just now is the
forcing Of Alger from President McKin-

case Of the dispiscd jew, Captain Drey-
ius, whose cause wasatfrst espoused by
only one newspaper. The injustice Of
the case was shown up, and the work
was 40 completely done that the whole
nation was aroused. Ills sentence was
modified after the new trial, and now
the force OF the press has compelled the
ministry 10 grant pardon. We have n

which predominatcd by two to one. The
managers turned mp their noses at every
friendly criticism and suggestion until
those complaints becume unfriondly aud
were made 10 such an extent that they
gained the consideration their mcrit de-
served. The result is too well known.
The old regime was oyerthrown, and the
popular idols Of a generation were
shattered. In our school district where
the party in power was even stronger
than In our city, having majority OF
three 10 one, there have been two back
sets. The political bosses had become

trusts was private property, and dealt

was complete. Conditions were reversed
and the bosses were turned down three
