THE bills of the retiring board Of

THE bills of the retiring board Of
commissioners, recently held up by
the present board, were similar to
hundreds of bills upon which the
county auditor drew warrants on
the county treasury during the
past two years. Just how much
the county treasury has been de-
pleted during these two years by
these fusion reformers will never
be known, but why the county has
run so far behind in the past two
years, under the reign of these
patriots, will be fully understood

8. D. TAYLOR, Editor aud Proprietor

SENATOR SHoUP will be sincerely
missed by the people of Idaho at
the national capital after March A.
After that date, and for the next
two years, Idaho Will be woefulIy
lacking in represep tation at Wash
ington. If an extra session should
be called, as now seems probable,
the able and experienced Congress-
man Wilson will be succeeded by
the 9-spot Glenn. Mr.. Heitfeld
never did count, and Mr.. Dubois
will be particularly obnoxious to
the administration, taking the place
of Mr.. Shoup who enjoyed the
highest standing in administrative
circles, and with the republican
majority in the house and senate.
Senator Sfoup has served the
people Of this state faithfully. He
has been painstaking in all depart
ment matters, and his statesman
ship has been of that conservative
chara ster that stood the test of time.
There are abundant signs of return
ing reason in Idaho, and after two
years of such representation as we
shall have at Washington, the
people will be ready to return the
distinguished senator to his present
field of usefulness. The republican
organization in Kootenai county
was able to increase the Republican
vote in two years from 600 to the
remarkable total Of nearly 1900.
Another two years of Republican
growth, and certain fusion decline,
and Kootenai itself will swing into
the Republican column. Mr.
Shoup will find majority of Ida
bnans with him in 1902.

Mr.. SCoTT, member of the legis-
lature from this county, has intro
duced a bill to amend the form Of
ballot used in general elections.
The principal change provides for
a method whereby the elector can
vote a straight party ticket if he so
desires. There il circle placed
after the party name at the head of
the ticket, and an X in that circle
indicates that the eector votes for
ali the candidates in that column.
If the elector chooses he may mark
his y after candidates in another
column, which would mean that he
voted his party ticket straight with
those exceptions The idea appears
TO be a good one.

GERMANY'S CORY LAWS.

rho nronosed new German tariff would be
more seriously regarded if its origin were less
we'll understood. If ii were put forward by the
Government in earnest, as. for example. the
recent army ard navy bills were, as measure
unon which the government meant to fight to
the hitter end. or if ii were obviously called for
by the majority of the nation, it would have
far different status. 1t is however. put for
ward by the government tentatively, we might
almost say by request and in response to
demand from no one but the Agrarians, the
rabid Junkers Of East Prussia. These Agra
rians have for years been the chief troublers Of
German politics, and even of diplomacy. Not
one of them seems to be able to see beyond his
OWN rye field or potato patch. They StubbOrnly
opposed any increase of the German navy unless
tariffs and bounties for their own profit We're
correspOndingly increased. They are infexible
against commercial expansion, because it brings
foreign goods to Germany, and against canal
construction because it would facilitate the dis
tribution of such goods throughout the empire.
1t is not protection which they want. 1t is
exclusion and prohibition. 1t is they who have
raised the clamOr against American meats and
fruits as unwholesome. and who have tried TO
provoke tariff wars with various countries
The illogical and impossible nature of their
Germany is not and apparently can not be a
self-sufficient nation. Its land does not and
probably can not produce enough to feed its
people Therefore it is dependent upon sup
plies from abroad. In such circumstances it
would be folly TO increase arbitrarily the cost
of such supplies II would be suicidal folly,
because it would tend to destroy the real great
ness of the. empire. Germany is essentially an
industrial and commercial country. It's vast
systems of technical schools and subsidized
ships have made 1t such, and have made it sue
cessful as such. But to be permanently success
full il must have permanent supplies of cheap
food for its industrial armies. The crowded
myriads of the manufacturing cities must have
good food at the lowest possible cost If they
are 10 compete successfully with their British
and American rivals. Germany itself, for all
the fulminations of the Junkers. cannot provide
them with food. The supply must come from
abroad. And thus TO impose heavy tax upon
what comes from abroad would mean more
than a hardship 10 those consumers. 1t would
mean a hopeless handicap to the industries in
which they are engaged.
The fact Is. Germany is in much the same
situation which England in at the time of
the Corn Laws agitation and repeal with the
difference that the agitation is conducted In the
other direction and by the other side. In those
days the great development of the factory sys-
TEN and of the commercial marine had out
grown the actual and potential output of Eng
lish farms II was necessary for the industrial
army to get bread from abroad and it was an
economical necessity for that bread 10 be as
cheap as possible. Therefore ViIliers and Bright

PTLLNG ON TIE BURDEN.

The official list of the citys employees and
their salaries was published yesterday in obedi-
ence to the law requiring such a publication
twice year-or in partial obedience to the
law, for not all its injunctiOns are strictly
obeyed. From this interesting compilation it
appears that the process of increasing salaries,
in which Tammany takes keen delight is stead
lily going Cn though in consideration of the
municipal election in November the rate of ex-
pansiOn has been reduced. Thus, in 1900, man
datOry increases being excluded, those which
directly testified TO the benevolence of heads of
departments, with $9OOOOOOO of taxes to
spend, amounted to $4SOOOO while during the
first six months of 1901 they amounted to only
$4,000. But ii will be remarked that the next
exhibit six months hence, after the election is
over. will include July. This circumstance
would naturally suggest the probability of a re-
turn to "the highest rate the traffic would bear
during the month just ended and it is under
stood that the fact corresponds TO the hy-
pothess.
The figures are an impressive commentary
on the good faith of the Tammany admnistra-
tiOn's economical pretensions. Its spokesmen
have explained over and over again the injus-
tice and oppression of legislative enactments
creating bills which the city has to pay, and
lamenting the bitter fate which cOmpelS the
Mayor and tie commissioners TO run the local
government under such conditions; while all the
time they have been making their professions
of helplessness ridiculous by voluntarily piling
additional burdens on the taxpayers. Yet no
doubt the Indignation has been TO some extent
genuine. Tammany does not like to be subject
to a general rule under which it can claim no
praise and gratitude for liberality. but loves to
be profiigate in its own way and for its own
benefit exercising crafty discrimination and
calculating on return for every favor

RnERS ANn H0rNDED RRIrONs.

Our London correspondent Monday shed
much needed light upon what we may describe
as the VlakfOntein scandal. which has been the
subject of good deal of comment and wonder
ment for some time past. The origin of it, to
public knowledge, the declaration by THE
London Mall that at Vlakfontem the Beers
had been guilty of numbering wounded British
soldiers. This declaration made the basis
of sharp criticism of the military administra-
ton for suppressing the fact. In reply the adj
mission was finally brought out from Lord
Kitchener himself that such murders had been
committed But he and the London govern
ment We're evidently displeaSed at the forcing
of the facts into publicity and the paper in
question fell under governmental dspleasure.
1t seemed strange that the British authorities
should be unwilling to have accounts of BOer
atrocities published, and at that the public did
much wondering.
Now it is all made plain There was no gen
eral massacre of wounded soldiers. A few
murdered. but not by authority of Boer com
manders The crimes were committed by two
or three ruffians. at least one of whom was one
of those alien meTcenaTieS who are. unhappily.
numerous in the Boer commanders, and they
were committed against the will and despite
the effcrts of the Boer commanders. 1t would
be most unjust therefore, 10 hold the Beers re-
spOnsible Yet the original publication in The
London Mail" seemed TO convey the impression
that there had been general and systematic
massacre sanctioned by the BOer commanders
and performed by the regular BOer Troops. That
was a most deplorabe misrepresentation, and
it affords ample ground for diSpeasure with
those responsible for il. 1t is easy TO under
stand why the government having the facts in
hand, deemed it best not TO make them public,
lest they be misinterpreted just as they seem
to have been either by the editor the cor
respondent of The Mail"
Whether the government is justiiable in the
severe measures ii is taking for the punishment
of the offending paper is another question. But
beyond doubt the incident gives added empha-
sis to the demand for thorough reformation
Happily in this no real mischief was done
The British public does not seem to have cred
tied for moment the intimation that the muir
derng of wounded men had become a regular
custom on the part of the Beers The British
have too much respect for their stubborn foes
to accept such a libel upon them. The fact
is, and ii is generally recognized in Great Britain
that while there have been some regrettable
incidents on both sides the combatauts have
| on the whole conducted themselves as brave
| diveSt war of its inevitable horrors. but they
have not aggravated them with wanton saw
| agery.
