It is said that Governor Voorhees, an
nual message will deal with the question
of bond issue on the part of the counties
and smaller municipalities. 1t is pointed
out that the tendency to rush into bond
issues for expensive bridges, school houses,
and other forms of public expenditure, has
grown to such an extent that many of the
smaller and poorer municipalities will in
the near future face burden of debt which
will be found to harrass and Cypress them,
and result in a tax rate that will amount
Utmost to confseation of the property of
algBlssssasx payers.
pefnor Voorhees, can turn his attention
- no better account, and it is hoped that
he will succeed in impressing upon the
Legislature the Importance Of the question.
A bond issue is a convenient way of raising
large sums of money, but when the bonds
begin to fall due the economy of the situa-
ton results in inverse ratio to the con-
yenience.

Sour Grapes.

The Wallace Press, a regular
orthodox, hard. shell Democratic
journal, says the dissolution Of
the Silver Republicans will inau-
gurate an era of purer politics in
Idaho. That paper says fusion is
nothing more than ga trade, a
bargain and barter Queer
that Democratic papers didn't
"see it in that light" before the
Silver Republican party went to
pieces. Until recently fusion
with them was a holy alliance.

will Japan FIGHT Russia.

There is no particular danger
of war between Russia and
England, but close observers are
of the opinion that Japan and
Russia may come to blows at al
most any moment. Reports have
emanated from Russia to the eff
feet that a good understanding
has been reached with the Japan
csc, but these reports must be re-
celved with some skepticism.
For several years the Japanese
have regarded a war with Russia
as inevitable, and they prefer to
have it before the Trans-Siberian
Railway is finished and while Ia
pans naval strength is decidedly
superior to that of Russia in
the Pacific. The Japanese con-
slider themselves rightly entitled
to Port Arthur and they aspire to
dominate Korea. Their influence
is now very great at Pekin.
They have known how to play
upon the reactionary and anti
European sentiments of the Dow
ager Empress of China, and it is
supposed that they are largely
responsible for that lady's recent
policy. 1t is expected that Japan
csc officers will reorganize the
Chinese army on modern foot =
ing, and that a firm alliance will
be established between these two
kindred empires. That it will be
the policy of this alliance to cult
vate the friendship of England and
the Oulted States, while opposing
the Asiatic encroachments OF
Russia, can readily be believed.
In short, movement by Japan
against Russia at this time. when
the Muscovites want quiet in that
quarter in order to make bold
gains elsewhere, would be
thought to point directly to a
close understanding between Eng
land and Japan, if not an actual
alliance.-From THE Progress
