coLDSMITH'S PHILOSOPHY.
SEEM 10 ne Proving Itself In These
Latter Days Of Pluto
cratic Rule.

Oliver Goldsmith, after himseh
trampipg all over Europe, wrote the
"vicar OF Wakefield" in which he
makes one of his characters also a
European traveller, remark as follows:
found that monarchy was the best gov
eminent for the poor to live In. and COM
monwealths for the rich. i found tnat
riches in general were in every country
another name for freedom. and that no
man is s fond Of liberty himself. as not 70
be DESTROYS OF subjugating the Will OF
some individuals in society 10 his own
We in America seem now to be demon
stratinr in our political system the
truth of this observation OF Goldsmith
1t is quite certain that this common
wealth of ours is fast becoming most
favorable country for the rich to live in
and at the same time more and more
difficult for the poor. With its multi
plied trusts ard monopolies the poor
man stands but poor chance of better
ing his condition. The burdens of the
government are uniformly put with
great persistency in undue proportions
upon the backs of the industrious poor,
and the rich are allowed 20 escape them.
Most of the taxes i.iposed are OF the
kind known as indirect so that the cen
suner may not see the injustice OF their
imposition. Capital is fairly in the
saddle in this country. while plodding
labor. with the coil of another's law
about its neck. is dragged hopelessay
along-brother to the ox-little heed
ing and rarely comprehending the
cause Of its detection. But the laborerl
nevertheless. is a good partisan and
takes pride in adjusting the tethe'
about his neck by which he is led down
, lower and lower into the depths OF po~
eriy.

One day the heart was gone from the

Salmon River.
Spokane Chronicle.
l.. G. Skinner, a member of one
of the parties sent out by the Chi
cago, Burlington & Quincy, to find
route for extending the Burling-
ton line to the coast, is in the city
today.
There are four men in the party,
with l. A. Campbell at their head.
Mr.. Campbell is expected to arrive
here this week.
The party has been spending
several weeks in the Salmon river
district in central Idaho and they
have found a feasible route thrugh
that section of Idaho which has
not yet been tapped by any Of the
great transcOntinental lines
Mr.. Skinner is very much i'm
pressed with the country which
their party passed through, and its
adaptability for railroad construct
ion and business. In fact he
thinks that this has been the fort
unate party OF the six groups
which were sent out by the Bur-
lington road to examine various
routes between the end of the line
in Wyoming and the Pacific coast.
He was seen by the Chronicle and
said:
aThe Burlington has sent out
half dozen different parties to
look over the states of Wyoming,
Utah, Idaho, Washington and
Oregon with a view to selecting
the best paying route as well as
one which will not offer objection
able grades. l have been in Idaho
Utah and Washington with oul
party Of four,
"We were much impressed witt
the country along Salmon river il
central Idaho. The settlements
in that part of the state have nj
railroad connection at the presen
time and are very anxious to secur'
one. I think it very likely tn
Salmon river route will be the on
selected by the company when i
extends it's line."
