Montpelier examiner. [volume] (Montpelier, Idaho) 1895-1937, 1900-02-16

The wise-acre Statesman says that
the tariff on print paper should re-
main. 1t further says that the
paper mills of the United States are
furnishing . greater part of the
foreign countries with print paper.
If this is true, and we believe it is,
why keep the tariff on? The States
man won't answer that question,
but we will. Il 10 to enable the
paper trust to charge the American
consumers about City per cent more
than they can get for their. product
in foreign countries. Only the
surplus goes abroad, and it is sold
in Europe and Australia for one
third less than it is right here at
home, and that too with the freight
added. That's the excuse for the
tariff, and the only one. The Ameri-
can people are allowing themselves
to be robbed by trust whose chart
ty isgiven to lands across the water.
The brunt of the raise has fallen
mostly on the publisher, but they
cannot always carry the load and
when they balk, then the mass Of
the people will be hit directly.

The supreme court has decided
that when sheriff or any other Of
ficer, makes a trip for the county
he must fast, live on wind, or pay
for his own meals out of his own
pocket. That court says he would
have to eat and sleep anyway, and
it isn't right to ask county to pay
for necessities. This in part, is
true, but most public officials have
home and the cost of maintaining
the same varies little, whether the
head of the house is home or not.
And again the expense of boarding
at hotels, when travelling, is double
what it is when at home. A man
can live comfortably in his own
house on SO or IS cents a day, but
when travelling the expense is any
where from 80 to ss day, at least.
OF course the supreme courts de-
cision will have to be abided by,
but its logic is not sound just the
same.

The Salt Lake Tribune accuses
the Deseret News of Topping to the
democrats. It has been rather fav-
orable to that party lately. If it
comes out squarely for the demo-
Gratis there will be few politicians
in Bear Lake who will find them
selves on high and dry land. They
have in the past justified their re-
publicanism on the ground that the
Deseret News, Pres. Shows official
organ, has seemed to favor the
gold party.

Dubois has been q dead duck po-
litically, in Idaho, ever since he
failed to rcpudiate his connection
with that unholy alliance alleged to
have been entered into ut Chicago,
with old Atkinson of Boston. There
are many other silver republicans
in the state that have now q strong
er hold on the people than Dubois
has. And we say this in all kind
ness, because the EXAMINER, in the
past, has been very kindly disposed
toward the ex-senator.

TAKE TT OF.

The Statesman is shedding croco-
die tears for fear the tariff on print
paper will be taken off and the news
papers given chanceto live. The
price has been jumped up about 100
per cent by the paper trust and the
Statesman, with wise( p forethought
advises the publishers to advance
the price of their subscriptions to
keep even. 1t says, newspapers
are sold too cheap anyway. AL of
which is to be expected from this
source.
The county newspapers at least,
cannot raise their subscription with
out running chances of being forced
out of business. None of them
have any surplus of subscribers at
the best. In Idaho the most of the
papers are using "patenta" and their
advancing price is grinding the life
out of the publisher. He is held
helpless by the paper trust, because
almost every paper in Idaho is max
ing less money now than it did q
year ago. The publisher cannot
arbitrarily raise his rates as the
trust can, for, on pinch, the peo-
pie can get along with less papers
and they will, but the printer must
stay in business if possible, and TO
do it he has to stand between the
trust and the people. Every paper
in Idaho and the west is up against
this wall and they will continue. to
stay there and be ground into bank
ruptey, unless the trust is forced to
let go of its monopoly. II taking
the tariff off will do the business,
then let it come off. Il is a tax on
intelligence.

alad Enterprise Of last
oHfa forth great tale about
prosperity of the country. Judg-
ing by the appearance of our este
emed contemporary the money max
ing wave hasn't hit Oneida county
very hard. If it wasn't for Reese's
cinch on the county work, at fair
" healthy price, he wouldn't even
do as well as he does. A paper that
has its Advertising columns filed
largely with patent medicine locals
doesn't reflect a very prosperous
community, especially if it is as de-
serving Of patronage as our Malad
contemporary. And what is true
of the Enterprise is largely true of
almost every paper in the state.
Yes. We have dedoodles of
prosperity, but it is always in some
other part Of the country besides
our own.

Japan Needs Foreign Capital.

The Japanese government has taken
one step which should have the ef-
feet of introducing little of the
much-needed foreign capital It has
granted permission for foreigners to
become owners of shares in Japanese
railways. The treaties do not ex-
plicitly forbid such ownership but in
asmuch as it would amount to an in
direct ownership of land the authori-
ties have hitherto hesitated to sane
ton the privilege. Moreover, the by
laws of many railway companies con-
tain q clause restricting the tenure
of their shares to Japanese subjects.
Within me last siA months applica-
ton was made to have these restric-
tions removed, and the government
has granted permission in the case of
the principal railways of the country.
