CA H VS.. LABOR.

Replying to Mt. Idaho corre-
spondent we would say that there
is this difference between the spec
ial road tax and the general levy
for road purposes. The special
levy can either be worked out on
the roads or paid in cash. The
general levy must be paid in cash
The proposition, briefly, resolves
into this: "Shall the county COM
missioners levy the special tax and
give the people an opportunity to
pay it in road work; let the roads
go unimproved; or increase the
general levy?' OF course, if we all
had money to burn we would all
prefer to pay in cash. But in this
world we must take things as we
find them and not as we woul d like
them to be, and in view Of the gen.
eral scarcity OF the circulating
medium among the great bulk OF
our Taxpayers, we are inclined to
think that the law is a good one.
1t has been in force in the older
states for years and is considered
good there, and there is no good
reason why it should not prove
equally effective here, where we
need good roads so badly.

A large number of leading Re-
publicans have sent a petition to
Senator Dubois asking him to pre-
vent the confirmation Of f. F.
VIM, recently appointed post
master ut st. Anthony by the presi-
dent. The charges against Winn
are that he has never been good
party man; that he left the party
in 1896 and joined the Silver Re-
publican movement; that he was
still out up to 1898, when nomi-
nation was refused him by the Re-
publicans for sheriff and he re-
turned to the Republican fold.
The petitioners say to Dubois that
Winn is no good to him and is no
good to the Republican party, and
therefore he ought not to be con-
tirmed. Dubois is going to present
the petition to the committee on
postoffices, but will not oppose
Winn's confirmation.

VACCINATION.

London has about 1000 cases OF
shall pox. There is no compul-
sorry vaccination in England; the
clamor of the Observation-Disclosures
induced Lord Salisbury to suffer
its repeal. He expressed his deep
regret at what he said was most
wholesome law, and predicted the
result that has followed, viz, the
outbreak Of smallpox in various
cities OF England since the repeal OF
the compulsory vaccination law. In
Germany every doctor is obliged to
vaccinate the children of his pat
tents at birth. Vaccination is en-
forced in the army, and the result
is that Germany keeps pretty clear
Of smallpox.
In its report Of five recent cases
Of smallpox, the Health Depart
ment Of Chicago says: "rhe first
case Of the group was imported
from Iowa; never vaccinated; had
been in the city some days before
discovery; contracted from his
brother-an imported Wisconsin
case. Cases 3, 6 and Z, adults,
never vaccin ated; contracted from
a previously reported case found in
the Salvation Army lodging house.
Cases 4 and 5, aged 9 and 3 years.
respectively; never vaccinated.
1.-The unbroken record Of never
vaccinated' among nearly 400 cases
taken charge Of and treated by the
department within the last three
years emphasizes the importance

ment's vaccination creed: True

pure lymph and kept perfect,

a WORD TO LEWIS SION

1t is amusing to resident of the
interior to note the attitude of the
Lewiston press on all matters con-
nected with the railroad shipments
from that point. To read these
yeracious papers an outsider would
be led to think that Lewiston was
the whole thing, and that there are
no other pebbles ON the beach.
The shipments over the railroad
are all proudly pointed to as evil
dences of the importance and
prosperity and productiveness of
the Lewiston valley, whereas, as a
matter of fact, very nearly the
whole of the exports from the
Lewiston valley are sent there
from the upper country.
Without the upper country to sup.
port it there would be no Lewiston,
except perhaps a post office. a
blacksmith shop aud a one-horse
country store. We say these
things 10 no unkind or uncharita-
Bile spirit, because due proportion
OF local pride is commendable, and
we have our share OF it. At the
same time the attributes Of COM
mon honesty, common sense and
common justice should recognize
the fact that the interior country
is the most important factor in the
development and growth and pros
perity Of Lewiston.

tude and Importance in view,

entailed by the new license law,
which closed several saloons, has
sadly curtxiled the funds OF the
district. The matter has been
very seriously considered by our
local school board and decision
on this important matter may soon
be looked for.
In other districts the new law
requiring free tuition is generally
ignored and disregarded. and we
note that the directors Of the pub
lie schools Of Boise City have dis
missed all pupils from outside dis
tricts who have not paid the full
tuition fees provided for in the old
law.
The FREE Press has always ad-
vocated free tuition in the pub

to all corners, believing that what
the district lost in one sense IT
gained in another, by promoting
the general welfare Of the town;
but like good many other people
we do not like the idea of being
forced by legislative enactment to
do what can just as readily be
done of our own free will; ard feel
certain that the new law would
not stand the test Of the courts for
five minutes if it could be tried on
it's merits. Meanwhile, the matter
is no to our school directors, and
it will be we'll for the public to
wait their decision and acquiesce
therein.

CA UTIoN TO TAXPAYERS.

mere le 3 general carelessness
among the public on all matters
connected with the payment OF
taxes which has resulted in a great
deal Of trouble to taxpayers and
county officials alike. 1t frequent
ly happens that through inadver-
tence the exact subdivisions Of the
land may not be properly listed,
and in some instances even the Sec
ton, township and range numbers
are Or may be wrongly entered.
1t is essential that everyone pay
ing taxes should look over his tax
receipts very carefully to see that
his land is properly described by
subdivisions, section, township and
range in his tax receipt, and also
that the receipts are marked
sPaid" not only on his receipt but
also on the tax roll. Then the tax
receipts should be carefully pre-
served year by year. Under no
circumstances should these receipts
be destroyed or allowed to lay
around where they can be mis-
placed and lost, not even if they are
twenty years old, because they are
q part of the title to the property.
This applies to taxes on personal
property as we'll as to real estate,
and should there ever be any dis
pute as to the payment of taxes
for any given year or years, the
person who can produce his prop
erly attested receipts has consider
able advantages. Take time by
the forelock and keep your affairs
in apple pie order, and thus Sc
cure the inheritance of your wild
ow and children when the time
comes for you to 60 hence.
II is also well enough, while we
are on this topic, to call attention
to another fact: that the laws of
this state will not permit land to
be redeemed which has been sold
for non-payment of taxes for 30
many years, and title has passed
to the county. There is case be-
fore us as we write where innocent
people are subjected to very great
pecuniary loss for this cause. They
have rendered to our county Off
Gals the full amount of their back
taxes and delinquent penalties, but
under the law the officials are
powerless to accept the money, and
the real estate still remains the
property of the county, and the
original owners are practically
homeless and penniless today on
account thereof. This Is no fic-
ton, but frozen fact. 1t is well
that the people at large should be
aware of these conditions and gov
ern themselves accordingly. We
do not denoance or uphold the
law, but simply give the public the
benefit Of information which can
not be too widely known.
