y Governor Morrison has exercised
the veto power with a sparfng and
iudicious hand. He probably sign
ed some measures which did not
meet with the entire approval OF
his judgment, but he wisely de-
ferred to the wisdom of the legisla-
ture, placing the responsibility
where, under Our system of govern
ment, it properly belongs. If un-
wise measures have become law, it
is the fault of the legislature, and
the people who created it. The
Governor has not attempted to place
himself over and above the law
making power. He has accorded
to that branch of government the
consideration which it is entitled
under the constitution. In every
instance, he has acted with discre-
ton and wise discrimination, Civ
ing to the State the assurance of a
careful and conservative admins
tration.

the NORTHMEN.

Some sturdy men came down
from the north to participate in the
business of the Seventh Legislature,
and their work will long be remem-
bered. Except as to the Clearwater
boom bill, they carried through
every measure they undertook, and
If it had not been for trouble among
themselves they would have carried
that through, Notwithstanding it's
questionable merit. Their first
proposition was to elect a northman
to the United States Senate, and
they did it with neatness and dis
patch. They wanted a supreme
court building and library, they got
it. They pulled for increased APP
preparations for the university and
normal school and got them. In
fact, they forged right through to a
successful contamination of all their
desires, until it came to monopoliz.
ing the best timber lands of the
State, via the boom bill, then they
disagreed and failed.
Among the men from the north
were some notable characters. Sen
ator O'Neal from Shoshoue for ex,
ample shrewd, clear-headed
whole-souled Irishman, with al
inexhaustible fund of good humol
and good sense. He, with Senator
Allen. from Canyon, was altogethe,

of the Capitol. More men lik'
these should be sent TO do the worl
of legislation. But we started il

INSURANCE COMMISSIONER.

There is no evading the fact that
the Republican members of the
House in the late legislature broke
faith with the Republican party
and the people when they killed the
bill to abolish the Office of State
Insurance Commissioner. There is
no excuse to offer--none can be
made. 1t was a fragrant and en-
tirely unjustifable breach of faith,
and that is the beginning and end
of it. 1t is proper and necessary
that the responsibility should be
placed where it belongs, and it be-
longs solely to Republicans in the
House, An attempt will be made,
no doubt, to attach blame to the
Morrison administration, but it will
not succeed if the public be well
informed. Governor Morrison did
all that was in his power to secure
ful6l1ment of party pledges. That
there was failure in this particular
was no fault of his. It was the
work of a cabal whose noblest as
piration it was to emharrass ths
Republican administration, in the
hope that they might profit thereby

STATE TREASURER AND TIRE LAW.

If reports may be credited, State
Treasurer Coffin intends to contest
the validity of the States funds
depository law enacted by the
late legislature. The fundamental
object Of this law is to secure to the
State interest on its surplus funds.
Heretofore, State Treasurers have
made anywhere from $40, 900 to$I5,-
600 a year by illegally manipulating
the public funds. The only pur-
pose, then, Mr.. Coffin can have in
seeking to overthrow the depository
law is to secure for himself con-
tinuation of this felonious traffic.
It is earnestly hoped that the pres
ent State Treasurer will not pursue
the course which rumor has marked
out for him. 1t will place him in a
most questionable light before the
public. It will expose him to Sc
we're criticism and provoke charges
of dishonesty and corruption which
may blacken his name forever. A
man occupying the position in
the financial world and in the poll
tics of this State that Mr.. Coffin
does cannot afford to take such a
tremendous risk. Even should he
succeed in having the law declared
invalid, what will it profit him?
He would probably be held to a
strict compliance with the law which
provides for the keeping of pu bic
funds on special deposit, and under
the constitution it is the duty of the
Governor to see to it that the funds
are so kept. Henceforth the Gov
ernor cannot shirk that duty even
if disposed to do so. In his mes
sage he took official notice of the
fact that the law was being con-
stantly and flagrantly violated, and
the legislation which followed was
in consequence of his official rec.
ommendation; therefore, under his
oath, he is bound to a strict enforce
rnent Of the old law even if the new
one should prove invalid, and the
State Treasurer last condition will
be worse than his present condition.
IF Mr.. Coffin will give free opera
ton to his natural good sense and
patriotism, he will cheerfully acqu-
esce, and accept the situation. The
more fuss he makes, the worse the
ending will be for him. The peo-
pie Of the State now fully under
stand the way in which the States
funds have been manipulated in the
past and they are determined to put
a stop to the nefarious practice.
They almost unanimously endorse
depository bill, and it will be fool
ish State Treasurer who undertakes
to destroy it.
