A FIRST CLASS COUNTY.

Idaho county is at the bottom OF
the "second class" counties, being
the thirteenth in point Of assessed
valuation in 1901, but she bids fair
to make big jump this year. The
fees received at the auditors Office
during the year is u pretty fair in
dex of the growth and volume OF
business done in the county year
by year, and as we stated few
weeks since in publishing the state
ment of the fees received by the
auditor of Idaho county, we out
Chased Nez Perez county in that
matter by several hundred dollars.
And yet Nez Perez is a FIRST class"
county, fifth in the list in assessed
valuation and first in population
in the state. The Pocatello Trib-
une comments upon the fact that
the business OF the recorders Office
in Idaho county was just three
times the amount Of fees collected
by the same officer during the
same period in Bannock county,
and Bannock is a "first class"
county, fourth in assessed valuation
and fifth in population among the
counties OF the state.
In the "second class county of
Idaho it costs only sll40 to do
S2452 worth of business in the
auditors office, while in first
class Nez Perez county it costs
the county SLIGO to do sl4S9 worth
OF business.
1t is only a question of a very
years now when Idaho county will
Outclass any two of the wealthiest
and most densely populated coun-
ties in the state.

rather quiet lately will take a new
lease Of life when the agents for
the British government commence
buying again. Contracting agents
will visit Lewiston and Grangeville
early in juno to purchase horses
for the British army in South

been resumed should give the local

GEN. MILES INDICATED.


1t is only short time since Gen.
Miles, in asking permission from
the secretary Of war and the pres
idsnt to attempt by pacific means
to end the war in the Philippines,
said:
''It is now three yeass since the
opening Of hostilities between the
United States forces and those in
the Philippines, and this war has
been conducted with marked &C.
verify"
The secretary was highly indig-
nant at the charge made by the
commanding general of the army,
and denounced it as tending to de-
stroy discipline in the service. He
contradicted and rebuked Gen.
Miles in these words:
cit is not the fact that the war;
fare in the Philippines has been
conducted with marked severity;
on the contrary, the warfare has
been conducted with marked hui
mainly and magnanimity on the
part OF the United States army"
In this singing rebuke Presi-
dent Roosevelt concured, and Gen.
Miles was threatened with dis
grace by the president.
But recent revelations show that
Gen. Miles knew what he was talk
ing about, and the secretary Of war
was deliberately concealing from
congress and the public the report
of Major Gardner, governor of the
province of Tayabas. This report
condemns the needless cruelties
and tortures inflicted upon the
Filipinos by our troops. In one
place he says:
"Of late, by reason Of the con-
duct Of the troops, such as the ex-
tehsive burning of the barrios in
trying to lay waste to the country
30 that the insurgents cannot occu-
py it; the torturing of the natives
by so-called water cure, and other
methods, in order to obtain inform
alton; the harsh treatment Of the
natives generally and the failure Of
inexperienced, lately appointed
lieutenants commanding posts, to
distinguish between those who are
friendly and those unfriendly, and
to treat every native as il he were,
whether or no, an insurgent at
heart, the favorable sentiment
toward the United States is being
fast destroyed and deep hatred
toward us is engendered.
This report was made last Decem.
Der and was only obtained from the
secretary of war upon the demand
OF congress. Its publication has
aroused intense feeling all over the
country, and has put the war dc.
partment and the entire admins
ration in very bad light with
the people.
The fact that the commanding
general Of the army deliberately
charged the war department with
conducting the war in the Philip.
pines with marked severity" hat
been made good, and the further
fact that the administration threat
ened to disgrace him therefor,
shows to what insane depths o.
partisan fanaticism the republican
party has descended.

and had TO first convince himself that
re was wrong. He then briefly sketch
ed the history of the road from the
time it obtained its charter from the
Legislature. He found that every step
had been legal and all right.
In discussing the city's subscription
to the stock. he said that this had
been voted upon in the general cleo
