Fusion's Miserable Failure.

EACH OF the Fusion organs in
this county had long article last
week, attempting to explain just
how it happened-that is, why tax
es are jumping skyward under that
beautiful system of government
known as Fusion Reform. The at
tempt was pitiful. In the first
place it was an excruciating ac-
acknowledgements of discreditable
fact, and in the second place it gave
the lie direct to column after col
umn of campaign literature pub
lished in these organs only "a few
months ago.
1t will be recalled how these
Fusionists crowed last year because
they reduced the rate the insignih-
cant sum of Al cents on the hun
bred dollars. Now if a reduction
of Al cents is sufficient to cause a
Fusion office seeker to crow, a raise
of nearly seven times that amount
ought to cause the poor tax payer
to do something desperate.
But the windjammers and Fusion
organs last year simply lied to the
people. The apparent reduction %
4 J cents was only a ward healer
trick. 1t was pointed out by the
Republican press at that time tina
the rate of last year would leave {
big deficit to be paid this year anC
that is one reason why the presen
board of commissioners want owe
$4,000 more revenue from direc
taxation than was raj ed last year
And the Fusionists should b
thankful that they did not have t.
place the rate far above S2.7C
Had it not been for the success q
the Republican National Admins
tration under our lamented Presi
dent, William Mckinley, bringin
prosperity to every section of tn
country-a matter of 100000 i
taxable wealth in Kootenai count
the rate would have been ia
more than 1910. How much NOR
is a simple calculaticn-to max
the assessment of last year, SO, ABB
934, produce $10O,6S7 in revenue
would require rate of 1898.
So again we have anothe
pocket book illustration of the mil
cradle failure of fusion rule.

Taxes Go Up.

The board of county commission
ers last week fixed the tax levy for
the year at 1910 on the one hun
bred dollars of valuation, against
$2.40 last year, an increase of 124
per cent. This increase is really
greater than it appears on its face,
because the taxable wealth of the
county shows large increase, some
thing like 100000, so that the levy
this year will produce 8,274.30
more than last year, an increase of
revenue raised by direct taxation of
over % per cent!
The significance Of this condition
of affairs will be better appreciated
when it is recalled that the Fusion
Windjamm ers labored long and
industriously last y ear to convince
the voters that they were reducing
taxes. With all the facts at hand
it would appear that they made a
great success of hoodooing the
voters, but a miserable failure in re-
ducing taxes.

A WORTHY SUCCESSOR.
Something New Under the Sum-"

All Doctors have tried to cure
CATARRH by the use of powders,
acid gases, inhalers and drugs in

TO TEAR DOWN A CITY HALL.
4 Historic Building in baltimore
VIII BE Demolished.


BALT IORE, June 15.-The old CITY
Han Building, on Holiday Street. near
Lexington. one of the most noted of the
old-time landmarks of Baltimore will
soon he torn down and replaced by n mod
ern building
This decision was reached yesterday by
Building Inspector Preston, who annoURc-
ed his intention of calling upon Water
Engineer Quick on Monday and request
him to take steps to tear down the build
ing, now occupied by the mechanical di-
vision of the water department About
year ago Mr.. Preston notified Mayor
Hayes OF the condition Of the building and
advised that it be torn down. He states
that the walls have begun to bulge ard
1t is at a considerable risk that the water
department continues to occupy it.
The building was erected in 1914 by
Rembrandt PeaIe from designs by the
elder Robert Carey Long. AS the Balti
more Museum it was for many years one
of the chief attractions Of Baltimore The
location was then a fashionable one. but
was not especially suited to a place OF
amusement and was one Of the causes of
the financial ruin of its owner One Of the
things put on exhibition there which ere
ated a sensation was the skeleton Of
mari pit in Ulster county, y. Y. by Mr.
PeaIe in 1891
It was the first building in Baltimore
lighted by gas, and on June II, 1916, an
exhibition of the new iIIuminant was
made The gas was made in the building
and excited a great deal of interest The
experiment then made suggested the
lighting of the city with gas The idea
originated With Mr. Peale. and he organ
lied q com oany for the purpose, becom-
ing a large stockholder. His letters, writ
ten about that time, indicated that the
freezing OUT process was known even
then, and that he was a victim. He
wrote:
The museum was sacrificed; my fond
est purposes blasted. 1 gave UP all I
could But for the evils thus brought
upon me by the gas business, I should
have been able TO manage the affairs of
the museum. in spite OF all other diff
culties."
The building was bought by his brother,
Reubens. PeaIe, and was continued as a
museum until 1890, when it was bought by
the city. to be used as city hall II had
cost about 81, coo OF $4,000 to build, and
was offered TO the city for 81 600 subject
to a redeemable ground rent of S2d6 II
was planned to spend s., 100 in improving
it resolution TO buy and improve Il at
the figures named passed the city council.
but ReubenS Peale could not give a good
title, so It was put UP at auction and
bought by the city It served as a city
hall until 1873. when the present han was
completed and occupied. although il could
by no means for years prior to 1919 &C

DEWEY REFUSED THE COAL.
4 suit started in Philadelphia Over
the Rejected CnrEo.

An interesting story Of how Admiral
Dewey refused q shiplOad Of coal which
had been carried half around the world
for the United States Government was
told in the Philadelphia courts The
cargo caught fire within a days voyage
Of Manila and in consequence was not
accepted by Dewey
Suit was brought by Cashier. Curran,

Marine Insurance Company Limited, to

coal The policy was dated August z. 1895
and insured the coal, comprising 2,557'4
tons, during a voyage OF the ship VigiIant

seas. the vessel and cargo were discov-

Manila. The fire increased in violence.
and it was found necessary to pour water
into her and bore holes under water to
assist in extiEgUishiug the conhagra-
tioE. The flames were put out on De-
cember y, but here were twenty-three
feet Of water If the ship
Continuing it was asserted that the
cargo Of coal was gree tIy damaged and
the United States Government, to which
it was to b. delivered, refused to accept
it Subsequently the coal was sold. but
the proceeds did not pay the freight

The plaintiffs said that they requested
the insurance company to pay them SG,3Sf
due on the policy, but II merely paid

the balance Of 81, s99-4S.
Charles E AIather, the local agent, filed
the affidavit of defence on behalf of the
company He says that the conditions of
the voyage were not followed as the YES

This terminated the voyage, the affida-
VT assert. the coal was rendered to Ad-
miraI Dewey. some 2f12 tons were accept

ALMOND AND RAISIN CROP.
Frosts and Floods Iujure the Out
put of Each in Spnin.

Benjamin II. RidgeIy. the American
Consul at Malaga. answering enquiries
from persons in the United States as TO
the almond and raisin crops in Spain.
writes to the State Department as fol-
lows:
Until after the early spring wind
storms it was impossible to give definite
/ information; but now that these storms
are over, it may be said that the almond
crop promises to he at least up to, if not
slightly above. the average But for
heavy frosts during early April in the
Provinces of Malaga and Granada there
would have been an unusually large yield.
The famous Jordan almonds of com
u-erce are grown exclusively in the Prov
ince Of Malaga, and from I25 0)g t. 10000
boxes is a fair average crop. Valencia
almonds are also a Malaga product. mad
an average yield would be about 10000
boxes, which. in addition to the Jordan
almonds, would indicate a total crop this
year of about 300 009 boxes
of last years Jordans, only a very
small proportion remains unsold. but the
warehouses Of Malaga still contain con-
siderable leftover stock of VaIencias.
There is Just now some demand for Jor-
dams at market prices of from 81 to s7.25
per box Of . pounds, cost and freight in
Guided. Valencias are not much in de
mand. but the market price is from $3.50
to 1915 per box of . pounds, cost and
freight Included
During the year ended December q,
1900. there were exported from Malaga to
the United Statese Sc 425 boxes of Jordans
and Falencias, at prices generally higher
than ever known before Some of MaIa-
gas leading merchants bought when the
market was highest and have since been
compelled to sell at largely reduced
prices; others are largely stocked with
VaIencIas. which cost about % per cent
more than the market price today The
result has been that at least one leading
firm has abandoned the almond business
altogether, and others are ready to fol-
low.
Malaga raisins are famous all over the
world. At present the production, which
had grown smaller some years ago be-
cause of the ravages Of the phyIloxeTa. is
on the increase. \ good average crop
would mean about 100000 boxes Last
year, owing to foods and storms. the crop
was short many thousand boxes, and in
all the commercial history of Malaga
there never was known such fluctuation
in prices Merchants. as a rule, had
bad year and lost large sums of money.
This year, there IS every promise of an
abundant crop of a fine quality, with
opening prices probably about as follows:
Malaga clusters from S1-25 TO s. . per
box of y pounds net, cost and freight in
Guided; loose, from - cents to $40 and
secdless. from 20 to - cents per box
of last years crop. from 5000 to 5000
boxes remaE n unsoId- These are mostly
loose raisins. quoted at present at - cents

Manual Training for Indians.

Of baskets is business which has been
carried on BY various Indian tribes
from time immemoriaI, and few civil
lied peoples have reached the perfection
attained by the Indian ia this industry
Not only are the baskets beautiful, with

cause some specimens Of them are pre-

Thus far, in the process Of Indian
education, the Government teachers
have confined themselves to teaching
the arts Of civilization, and have led the
young Indians to believe that it was
