LAST MONTH OF MANY WAR TAXES.

---@ AN1HSS'
After the first of next month there will be moth
ing to remind the average American citizen of the
war for Cuba save an occasional wall from a pop
ulist or an anti expansionist. Only those who are
identified with the larger financial operations of
the country, bankers, brokers, certain manufactur-
ers, proprietors Of circuses, theatres and other
places of public amusement will have occasion
to feel that they are making a personal contribu-
ton toward the expenses of a conflict thathas been
attended with results of such far-reaching national
importance.
The repeal measure passed by the last Congress,
which goes into effect July I, removes the special
stamp taxes that have been most onerous to the
people and effects an annual reduction of $40, ooo,-
900. These include the stamps on checks, tele-
grams, express receipts, certificates of deposit,
money orders, life insurance policies, mortgages,
%promlsory notes and other %ocument that repre-
sent the comnoner transactions of business.
The taxes on many other articles have been mod
flied, while war revenue will still be derived from
the tax on beer, spirits, cigarettes, tobacco, bank
ers capital and surplus, bonds of indemnity, bro
kers' contracts, certificates of stock, pawnbrokers,
petroleum and sugar refneries and proprietors of
various kinds of public amusements and exhibi-
tons.
While the growing surplus in the treasury and
the cessation of the war for which the stamp taxes
were levied made it advisable to repeal the more
onerous taxes that most directly affected the peo-
pie, it can be t%ruthfully said that there was no
popular clamor for their repeal. They were not a
burden to the people. They were paid willingly
and without complaint. Even where it was clearly
the obvious intent of Congress to place the burden
upon the big corporations the action of the latter
IN compelling the people to pay the taxes evoked
no serious protest. The people had become so ac-
customed, in fact, to the stamp taxes that they had
almost ceased to regard them as an annoyance,
much less a burden.
The ease with which the taxes were imposed and
collected and the willingness with which they were
paid by the people have furnished the countries of
the world with a striking Illustration of our national
resources III time of emergency. 1t has also shown
our own government how quickly and easily reve-
nue. may be raised for the national defense without
imposing any great burdens upon the people

ToWNE AND THE OCTOPUS.

Muscatine Journal: 1t is singular how soon
some men are able to forget. 1t was less than a
year ago when Charles A. Towne, of Minnesota,
was convinced that his country and countrymen
were confronted with dangers enough to make
ones hair stand on end. He almost literally got
upon his legs and howled about the so called
octopus combinations of the plutocrats. Now he
has gone off arm in arm with the octopus. Mr..
Towne has paid $4,000 for an oil land tract in
Texas, and with him has associated Governor Ben
ton McMillin of Tennessee and Ex-Governor Hogg
of Texas in a $4,000, 900 company. Its hard to
believe these things of McMillin and Hogg; but,
after this news about Towne, we suppose that we
may believe anything.

SHAW WILL BE STRONG.

Senator Allison has told Walter Wellman that
he will under no circumstances become a candidate
for the presidency, to succeed Mckinley. He will
be IS years old three years from now and knows
that he would not be considered for the place. But
he will favor Governor Shaw's candidacv. In our
opinion, Teddy will be the only significant opposi-
ton lowa's governor will encounter, If the con-
ventlon will not stamnede to the vice-president8
Governor Shaw will be about the strongest man in
the contest.-Carroll Herald.

THE FRIEND OF Ill.

Gov. L. NJ. Shaw made Denison a visit on Satlr-
day and Sunday. The Governor is certainly the
most popular man in Denison. When he comes
home he is hailed from every side, from across the
street, from houses and from door yards. Every
man woman and child knows him and is proud Of
the big-brained man of Denison, who has made
such a record throughout the nation. The Cover
nor is looking well. He seems to have gained
some in weight and the worries or othcial lite rest
lightly upon his shoulders. He has grown used to-
the petty chickering's of wouldbe critics and knows
now that he is simply undergoing what all pubic
men must endure. AS a matter of fact, the bigger
and brainier the man the more of acertain kind OF
criticism he calls forth. When asked as to the
possibilities for 1904, the governor was very reti-
cent. He does not seem inclined to give impetus to
any s'boom, y the force of which shall be spent
long before the national convention takes place.
He is watching events closely, however, and most
certainly appreciates theszeal and readiness of his
friends. Those who know Governor Shaw. know
that he is cautious IN all his undertakings. He
did not decide to become a candidate for governor,
until all the other candidates were in the field, and
when he did enter the race he sprinted ahead with
a speed which surprised the talent, to use an ex-
preston of the turf.
If Governor Shaw enters the field of national
politics, he will be a bona hde candidate and every
other man in the race will know that Shaw has
been in it. He will not be after the vote of Iowa
as a compliment. If he does not feel that he has
a fair opportunity to win, it can be relied on that
he will not embarrass the republicans of Iowa by
asking their support of a lost cause simply to graft
fly a personal vanity and to have it said that he
twas spoken of for the presidency. If Governor
Shaw is a candidate at all, he will be a real live
candidate, a factor in the convention and a power
full one. The many Denison friends and neighbors
were glad to see the governor and glad TO know
that it is as we'll with him as it is

TIRED OF BRYAN.

The Chicago Chronicle which supported the
democratic ticket last year, says ssMr. Bryan is be-
coming tiresome." This conclusion is even more
popular among democrats than republicans, for
the ssboy orator of the Platte has made his own
party more trouble than any other. And he doesn't
seem inclined to subside. If he isn't a candidate
himself he will want to make the candidate and the
platform.

Joseph p. Beeler is dead. He
passed away at noon today after
brief illness lasting only since last
Monday. A few days ago appear
antly in robust health, the an
nouncement seems almost incapable
of belief.
Death was due to an attack of
pneumonia in both lungs, compli-
Gated with peritonitis. DR.. Barker
was called to attend the case Tues
day morning, but the disease had
such hold on the patient that
medical skill could not avail. MIR.
Beeler lost consciousness Wednes-
day morning which he never re-
grained, and gradually succum bed
to death.
Mr.. Beeler was about AZ years of
age. His wife and step-daughters
and one brother, John Beeler, were
present when he died. Another
brother was here until just before
MIR. Beeler took sick, and is expect
ed back from Ka.ispell tomorrow
Other relatives are in the east.
Joseph 2. Beeler has been a
prominent figure in Bonners Ferry
for number of years. At the time
of his death he was conducting both
the International and the kooten al
Hotels, besides having large tie
camp II miles west of town. He
always employed a large force Of
labor and handled large sums Of
money. AS a citizen he was public
spirited, good hearted, and generous
to a fault. Mrs. Beeler and Other
relatives have the greatest sympa
thy of all.
The funeral will take place or
Sunday at l p. M, Rev. John H
Hope preaching the sermon at tn
Presbyterian church.

Attempt to Murderl

Arnold Stems, a young rancher
living miles north of town, was
shot from ambush, in front of his
cabin, yesterday, at noon, and prob
ably mortally wounded. The facts
as told by Stems are that he had
just fl aished his dinner and had
seated himself outside his cabin.
Suddenly rifle shot rang out, and
a bullet struck HIM in the breast,
He leaped to his feet and called to-
give warning, thinking, probably,
that the shot was not intended for
him, but the first shot was quickly
followed by another which struck
in the muscle of the left arm, then
the assassin seems to have fled.
Stems lives II miles out from
Bonners Ferry on the Port Hill
road. lie is about % or 80 years
of age, and lives alone on home-
stead. As soon as he could collect
himself he started to walk down
the road in the direction of town,
and the first house TO be reached
was that of Mr.. Curtice, over four
miles distant.
He was exhausted from loss of
blood on arriving there but was
made as comfortable as possible
while doctor was sent for.
DR.. Bishop was called to attend
the case, rea ching the man last ev-
ening. He reports the victim in
serious condition with the chances
not encouraging for his recovery.
The ball that entered the breast,
struck the left side, passing just
under the breast bone and coming
out under the right arm, passing
through the lung and making a
very dangerous wound The
Doctor did all that was possible to
relieve him.
Storms claims to have no idea as
to who the assassin was. He claims
to know of no one who bore him
any ill-will
1t is a strange case, and one that
ought to have the closest investi-
CATION of the officers of the law.

The county printing has been
awarded to the Silver Blade, the
highest bidder because it was
fusion organ. The bid of the Koo-
tenai County Republican was lower
by large pre- cent, The Blade
tries to condone this little steal by
saying the Republican would have
lost money on the contract. Sup
pose it had, would not the taxpay ers
have been ahead? Mr.. Yost, the
publisher of the Republican, was
willing to take his chances on the
profits. He could, and would
have given bond in almost any
sum, with the best men in the
county as sureties, Democrats as
well as Republicans. AS to flu
ancial responsibility, the publisher
of the Republican shows off TO con-
siderable advantage as compared to
the fusinn publisher, to say the least,
But to cut it short, it is just a
plain steal.

championship increases as the time for
the contest approaches
Betting has not been heavy as yet, and
all the money placed has been at odds

Many pugilistic experts, however, de-

task for the champion to maintain his
title.

Jeffries, who has been training at
Hardin Springs, came down to Oakland
last night and will do the remainder OF
his preliminary work in the rooms of the

It is his intention to box Armstrong

He wants them to work fast, and by
