 Approval of the bill would have struck at the very foundations of law. It would have been blow at the purity of legisla- tion.

A flag end of Congress in the form of an executive session is still sitting, and it is still trying to revolutionize the government in accordance with Republican principles. It is trying to stife debate in the Senate, even as it has been stif1ed in the House. As Senator Bacon stated, the desire on the part of the Republican leaders is to get both Houses in hand so that one or two men can control both.
 The old Senate method is of course often abused. Perhaps a more fragrant example of such abuse was never known than the talking to death of the rivers and harbors bill by Sena- tors Carter and Wellington; but many men and events contributed to the re. suit. The amendments made in the bill by the Senate, and the late day at which they were made, gave Messrs. Carter and Wellington an opportunity and they seized it, the one to get even because his items were left out of the bill, and the other because he is crank at all times.
 The want of cloture rule in the Senate is of course inconvenient at times but it is freely stated that a bill which had a sincere majority be- hind it has never been beaten in the Senate by too much debate. As there is no debate over contested measures in the House, it is we'll to have one House in which bill can be exhaust ively discussed.
 The failure of the rivers and har- bors bill was due to all sorts of treach- cry, chiefly on the part of the Republi- cans, who were crazed by the failure of their pet subsidy bill. Senator Platt of Connecticut is an example of this class, and it was these people that really knifed the rivers and har- bors bill.
 Senator Platt's proposed amendment of the Senate rules aims "to limit de- bate on any bill or resolution to req sonable limits in order that the ma jority of the body may be able to do business in the Senate.' This reads on the face of it very nicely and smoothly, but under it Senator Mark Hanna would be the judge of what is reasonable when the ship subsidy is before the Senate, and so on to the end of the list. "A reasonable limit" would always be what the majority wants, and in a sort time the Senate would be reduced to the House level.

 The rain seriously interfered with the pleasure of the inauguration, and the un- toward weather was the more disappoint- ing because it had been preceded by a spell of excellent and balmy weather. Careful preparations had been made to protect the President from the inclemen- cy of the season, but it would have been impossible to have provided a stand that would protect all distinguished guests from the rain. In consequence, the am- bassadors and ministers from foreign countries, the justices of the Supreme Court, Senators, Representatives and others in high public positions had to brave the weather. This was the more disa greeable because the diplomats had not provided for such a contingency, and during the long wait-they had preceded other distinguished guests-they crowded upder the caves of the small pavilion prepared for the President. It was a sor- ry spectacle they presented with their chapeaus ornamented with ostrich feath- CTS and their gold lace inadequately pro- tected by overcoats that were not in keeping with their diplomatic dress. Ba- ron Faver, the ambassador from Italy, sought refuge in the place reserved for the President to the great distress of a Senate assistant sergeant-at-arms. who requested him to step out, which he did not do until the President was approach ing. This little incident was disagreeable, but the inaugural preparations were bet ter than usual and the plans were car ried out admirably. Had 1t not been for the rain, the spectacle would have been unusually brilliant and attractive, and as it was, it was dignifed and impress slve-a fitting induction of a popular President of great country into his sec- ond term of office.
 In the five inaugural parades that it has been my good fortune to witness, that in celebration of the second inau- guration of MT. Mckinley was the finest in every sense, notwithstanding the un- favorable weather The presence of so many we'll organized and drilled troops was a great attraction. Of course, the West Poiners and Annapolis cadets were the chief attraction, but the Porto Ri- cans marching like veterans, were among the best features and the regulars and marines and National GuardSmen were credit to Americas military spirit.

lie statement and suggestions:
At present there have been five
cases of small pox-une dead, two
convalescent, one of two weeks du-
ration, and one with pits just COM
ing to the surface.
1t is a shame that some of the
good people of the Valley should
insist that we have no small pox,
and have the Indians work for
them and even have them in their
houses. would suggest that some
one with authority arrest and deal
gently" with any one who may, in
the future, be guilty of any such
disregard o! the quarantine law.

cinated if it be possible to do So

Trying to Shirk Responsibility

b ~ ~'''' ~ 49,
The Fusion organ at Rathdrum
has a cheerful disregard for truth
and the county records. 1t can
not print a single paragraph with
out disappearing the facts.
While this is common failing of
the Fusionists, yet at this distance
from the next election, it serves a
useful purpose. 1t enables the Re-
publican press of the county to ex-
pose these falsehoods and call the
attention of taxpayers to the hypo-
crisy of "Fusion Reform" in such
manner that they can not hel p hut
observe. Now here is paragraph
from the Silver Blade which is
squirming and putting like por
pus" under the criticisms made in
these columns concerning the man
ner in which the taxes are going up
under Fusion rule The Blade
says:
at THE HERALD knew that there debt
of $4,000 which had been saddled upon the peo-
pie by rotten ring II knew that this debt
falls due this year and must be paid.
The Fusionists did not create the debt"
Now just note the facts and COM
pare them with the above mislead-
ing assertions.
The bond and interest debt to be
paid in 1902 is $l7,541.75 as com
pared with $1O121.25 this year, a
difference of only 81, 42050.
OF the $17,541.75. the sum of
$1,000 is FOR bonds issued before
statehood, and $4,000 for bonds
"saddled upon the people by a
rotten ring" it is true, but it tran
spires by a democratic ring, the
Pilling-Daggett board in 1892,
which in single year plunged this
county in debt over $4,000, and
issued $4,000 IN bonds. The bal
ance, 81 ,941.75 is for interest and
commission on the total bonded
debt of the county.
Now, as to the assertion that "the
Fusionists did not create the debt,
only the sorest straits of despera-
ton would cause the Blade to make
such a declaration. As shown in
the HERALD last week, in figures
taken from the official records, the
Fusionists have issued $4,000 of
the bonded de bit since 1891, as
against $4,000 by the Republicans,
and a share of the latter was for
the Pilling Daggett warrants, so
that about twO-thirds of the bond
and interest debt is directly charg-
able to the Fusionists, or some of
Fusion's component parts.
The cause of Fusion Reform CT
must be in desperate circumstances
when such lying must be resorted
to to bolster up the cause.
