lasult to intelligence.

The argument advanced BY the
democratic press and orators Of
Idaho that the difference in the
state levies Of 1896 and 1902 is
evidence Of the thrift and economy
Of the administration Of Governor
Hunt is an insult to the intelli.
gence of every honest voter 81 the
state. II Is an destination tina,
they cannot figure; that they can
not reason for themselves. The
veriest school child can realize
why a state tau levy should be
smaller now than In 1896 and why
1t should constantly continue to
grow smaller As taxable property
increases. The taxable property
OF this state has increased from
Sag, ooo. 900 In 1896 to over 461 :
900, 900 At the present time, while
the expense Of maintasning the
state, had honesty prevailed,
should not have increased ma
terially. ANY one wish ortlinar,
Intelligence should understand
this proposition. 1t is not gu, s.
ton Of mathematics at all. 1, is a
question Of common sense.
And yet this reduction in the
state levy is-the sole remaining leg
Of the democratic political stooi. |

The present state administration
talks Of 10 ecoaony. Coverpo:
Hunt aud other 1smocratic cam
paign orators have lauded the fact
that the rate per cent Of the present
state tax levy Is lower than il was
in 1896. The democratic press hiss
been loud in its song. A few fig-s
ures In regard to Governor HINTS
administration may be interesting
at this time.
There have been most extraordi-
nary additions to the general fund.
The present administration has
sold state bonds to the amount Of
$ro7 900 from this sale premiums
amounting to SIo,4o4, were re-
ceived and turned into the general
fund. The new license law has
added at least $2o. 900 more to the
general fund and from receipts Of
the insurance department, thu
general fund has been increased
nearly $4,000. Other extraordi.
nary resources, 1t Is estimated,
have added ct least tio.o more
to this general fund. making Ii all
an ii crease over and above any
other two years in the history OF
the state, Of . net sum of over
$4,000.
The state levy Of Says, 900 was
made two years ego and was avail
able for the maintenance Of the ex-
penses Of the state; yet notwith.
standing the fact that taxes. on
account IF the general good times.
have been very closely paid up. II
Is found that not only large fund
has been entirely expended BY
Governor Hunt aud his honest
and economical administration, =
but In addition to that, SIIo, $50
has been paid out Of the sinking
fund ofthis to pay the expenses Of
his administration. The sinking
Il x
funds which have been depleted By
bis peculiar financial methods are
as follows:
Normal Schools. .tso72o a
SchGol Of Science. 3aIS.o7
Capitol Of Idaho. .........- a8S3I.Ia
University Dormitory....... a8so4 50
Now this Is only . part Of the
disastrous record Of the last two
years Of democracy in Idaho.
There is hardly dollar available
In any Of the funds Of the state.
and yet democracy has the ef-
frontery to claim that Governor
Hunts administration has been s'aI,
honest and economical one. .
This, taxpayers Of Idaho. is the
plain record; it can. be verified by
any one who cares 10 investigate.
Every fund Of the state has been
depleted and looted. Figures
speak for themselves aud the hon.
est voter may draw his own con.
illusions.
A careful Investigation Of the
hooks at the state house shows
that the following departments will
have to ask the next legislature
for . deficiency appropriation to
pay their bills now being con.
tracted as follows:

HARSH, CRUEL, INHUMAN
conviots in Texas Are whipped
Frequently and Often Shot ..
Down Like Dogs.
vesc YorH Sun Special Servtoe


Austin, Texas, Aug. 30-Convicts
treated like beasts Of the field and shot
down like dogs by guards and contractors
upon the slightest pretext is the charge
made against the management, Of the
state penitentiarys by an investigation
committee appointed by the last legis-
lature. The statement continues: ~
TT is our conviction that the lease sys-
tenn is a disgrace to the state and ought
to be abolished. As a rule the life of a
convict is not as valuable in the eyes of
the sergeants, guards and contractors
with few exceptions, as that Of dog.
In evidence thereof we and that the av-
erage life Of a convict is seven years.
Convicts are shot, down upon the least
rrovocatfon and when there is absolutely
no excuse for It. Convicts are worked
when they are sick and disabled and some
have been compelled to work until they
have dropped dead in their tracks.
when men are shot down like dogs and
are worked until they drop dead under
this system, the people Of Texas cannot
rhope to escape the responsibility Of these
wrongs. The existing methods are harsh
cruel and trhun1an and unworthy of an
enlightened people. The law In regard
to whipping convicts ought to be repealed
The sergeant whips at any and all times
that it is his pleasure to do So The con.
tract syst tenn ought to be abolished IA
once and a more humane system inaugu

Chauncey Olcott's new play, "Old Linn
erick Town." was given is dress rehearsal
at the Metropolitan theater, st. Paul, last
evening. The s'try-out, Of a produ ton
which both Mr.. Olcott and the author,
Augustus Pitou are confident will make
a big bid for popular favor, was made be-
fore small invited audience under the
close, supervision of the great theatrical
manager and playwright.
Mr.. P1tou expressed himself as being
very well satisfied with the performance
at its conclusion. 1t is the first dress re-
hearsal he has ever given as a preliminary
to the first night of a new play. Such
rehearsals are seldom given in this coun-
try, though common enough in France,
where it is the fashion to put on a piece
before a critical audience Of 500 or 1 900
The rehearsal of "Old Limerick Town"
began in New York Aug. s. The show
made hit with the privileged characters
who saw it, Mr.. Olcott's songs being Wig
