OUR readers will remember the
great hue and cry that was raised
during the campaign about the
penitentiary scandal. The republi-
can speakers and press Of the state
did not stop short Of character as
sassinati0n to make votes for their

and most highly respected citizens

without a blemish, a man who IS
trusted and loved by those who
know him best, made the vic

and vile methods to secure votes.
has been completely exonerated by
the dismissal Of the charges that
were trHmPed up against him. A
judge, on the motion of
a republican prosecuting attorney,
has said that the charges were un-
rue. Governor Morrison and other
state officers are reaping the reward
)t this character assassination, but
here must be times when these things
ting their consciences. if such a

leli, one Of the VIGOROUSLY immoral
men Of the state, was chief peddler

TIE orARLEs BILL

The bill of Senator Quarles re-
pealing the timber and stone, desert
land and homestead Communication
acts, has been recommended for
passage by the senate public lands
committee. The passage of this
law would leave the homestead,
with FIVE years residence, as the
only means by which the individual
could obtain title to public land
That the law is detrimental to the
best interests of the west, no one
acquainted with western conditions
and development has the least
doubt. 1t will prove not only detri-
mental, but disastrous. Under our
liberal land laws the west is devel-
oping very rapidly. Public lands,
under the operation of the present
laws, are passing into the hands Of
the individual and being made pro-
ductive. The resources of the
country are being developed to a
degree that is adding millions of
dollars annually to the taxable
property of the west. Arid lands
are being reclaimed and under the
magic influence of irrigation the
desert is made rich garden spot.
The merchandise timber is being
cleared off and the ground made
ready for the agriculturist. Repeal
the laws under which these things
are made possible and the wheels Of
progress will be blocked. The
prosperity of the west will be
checked, if not permanently stopped.
The homestead law entails too slow
progress for this age and part Of
the world. The big, broad west
breeds big broad men who do things (
in a hurry. Here fortunes are
made and lost in a month; farms
are opened and made productive in
a year. Congress now proposes to f
change these things and compel the
settler to put in FIVE years opening
up farm and making it produc-
tive. That process IS too slow. The
best interests of the west are at
stake in this bill and every western
member of congress must stand by
he people in opposition to it.
ldaho's members are opposing it
md doing all in their power to pre-
vent its passage.

DIVISION Is DEAD.

There will be no county division
at this session of the legislature.
Our Rathdrum friends may now
feel assured of this fact, for the
time has passed for the introduction
of bills with nothing but the Yost
bill before the senate. That bill is
so clearly unconstitutional that
should it become a law the Rath-
drum people could have it SO de-
clared by the courts for about thirty
cents. Our senator has neatly
jobbed those favoring division and
is entitled to the everlasting graft
tude OF the anti-divisionists. If
Editor Logue fails to recognize the
senator's efforts in behalf of the
cause which came so near shatter-
ing his nerves, he will be classed
by his constituents as a base in
CRATE. Come now, Brother Logue
give our senator credit where credit
is due. He refused to Join Ceur
d Alene in a division bill that would
stand the test OF the courts and
seeks to satisfy Standpoint by intro
ducing his unconstitutional Roose-
Welt county bill. AT the same time
he is doing just what Rathdrum
wants. There were three towns
most deeply interested in division
from a pecuniary point of view.
They were Rathdrum, Occur
d'Alene and Standpoint. Rathdrum
knocked the persimmon and will re-
main the seat of government of the
undivided county of Kootenai for
another two years. Yost's bill is
the biggest farce that has been in
troduced at this session of the Slip
perry seventh.

FACrs ABOUT FRANCHISES.

AS a principle we believe IN mu-
nicipal ownership of public utilities,
As a matter of business towns are
not always in position to own these
things and when they are not it is
wise to enlist the aid of private cap
ital in furnishing the people such
necessities as water and light on
the best possible terms. Occur
d Alene has been unfortunate in
being dominated by a company
owning these necessities, that has
paid no regard whatever to the
peoples interests and has pursued
the policy OF the shylock in de-
handing its pound of flesh at all
times. The company still abso-
lutely and defantly refuses to Weld
point in favor of the public and
has so stated to members of the
board of trustees within a week. 1t
says it will not furnish water for
FIRE purposes and will not give one
street light for an electric light
franchise, but wishes to secure these
rights without restriction or return
in any way, and had one champion
on the board of trustees willing to
stand by it, Mr. Mcfarland has a
right to his opinions, but the people
are not with him. The town has
suffered from poor water service,
dictation and high prices, until the
people rebelled and are now in a
fair way to secure a good service,
with pure water, and reasonable
rates, from company that will not
force them to build its system bv
laying mains if they want water.
The question has reached that point
where the people are determined on
a change and when the opportunity
is presented them they are willing
to embrace it. That is why 90 out
of every 100 of our citizens are
standing firmly back OF the three
members of the board of trustees,
V. ". Sander, Armand Perrenoud
and A. V, Chamberlin, in their ef-
forts to give a franchise to the
Gable Milling COMPANY 1t is Mr..
Mcfarland opposition to these
things that IS causing such severe
criticism OF his action BY the peo-
pie. The attempt to hold up the
electric railway franchise as a club
to be used in killing the light and
water franchises failed, as did all
further efforts to prevent the people
from securing a water service 10
save their homes from the flames.
It is a question of letting your
home burn and drawing water for
domestic purposes from a cesspool
in the lake, or saving your homes
and getting pure water for drinking
purposes. Under these conditions
1t is not surprising that the people
are all on one side. Others
may bubble and straddle and
say there are two sides to the
question, but the PREssi is progress
sive and is sure that there is but
one side to this question at the
present time, and this side is that

these matters is deserving of the

Years, With Privilege Of Renewal.

Washington, Jan. 23.-The treaty
between the United States ani the
government of Columbia, which was
signed yesterday by Secretary Hay
and DR.. Herran as the representa-
tives of the two countries, was trans
mitted to the senate today, and by
the senate referred to the committee
on foreign relations.
The treaty was read in executive
session, but the injunction of secrecy
was not removed.
BY the terms of the treaty the
United States agrees to make a cash
payment of $4,000. 900 in gold to the
Columbian government, and after the
expiration of nine years to pay
rental of $250,000 per year. The lease
OF the strip of land to be useu for
the canal and for canal purposes is
practically made perpetual, the pro-
vision on this point being that the
first lease shall be for 100 years, and
renewable thereafter at the pleasure
of the United States.
The strip is to be 10 klometers, or
| six miles. in width. and over this ter
ritory the United States is given po-
lice and sanitary jurisdiction, al
| though it is expressly specified that
| Colombia does not surrender it's SOW
ereignty over it. The United States
is to have the privilege of free i'm
portation of vessels and materials to
be used in the construction of the
canal. 1t is also given the right to
| improve, use and protect the harbOrs
at both the Atlantic and Pacific ends
of the canal. The grant is made eX-
elusive to the United States, and no
taxes or rentals are to be charged
in addition to the sums of $4,000 900
and $250,0O0 annually. The commit
tee on foreign relations will meet to-
morrow to consider the treaty.

Most Important Transactions of the Eighth Legislative
Assembly Condensed.

The senate judiciary committee has
decided to report favorably a bill con
tanning the measures indorsed by the
Montana State Bar association re-
Gently, giving the supreme court the
exclusive right to disbar an attorney.
The State Bar association went on
record as fayoring the adoption of
such a statute largely because OF the
fact that as the supreme court has
the sole right to admit lawyer to
practice, it should also have exclu-
sive right to disbar a member of the
bar.
A committee was selected by the
State Bar association to present the
measure to the legislature and the
senate judiciary committee to which
it had been simultaneously present
ed with the house judiciary commit
tee yesterday by vote of to l
decided to recommend its passage.
