Ex-Gov. Hoard makes an excellent
suggestion in recent number of his
newspaper. He suggests that the as
sessment roll be published as compiled,
each year, that all the taxpayers in each
town and city may know how much
each other taxpayer is assessed. Mr..
Hoard argues, and there is muck sense
in what he says, that it would have a
tendency to make taxpayers return their
personal property and it would also
have tendency to make those who did
return their personal property in full
see to it that others did so, that they
might be made to bear their share of
the taxation burden.

Caution

This is not q gentle word-but when
you think how liable you are not to pur-
chase the only remedy universally
known and remedy that has had the
largest sale of any medicine in the
world since 1868 for the cure and treat
ment of Consumption and Throat and
Lung troubles without losing its great
popularity all these years, you win be
thankful we called your attention to
Boschee's German Syrup. There are so
many ordinary cough rsmedita made
by druggists and others that are cheap
and good for light colds perhaps, but
for severe Coughs, bronchitis, Group
and especially for Consumption, where
there is difficult expectoration and
coughing during the nights and morn
ings, there is nothing like German
Syrup. The % cent size has just been
introduced this year. Regular size IS
cents. AT all druggists.

ORGANIZATION OF LEGISLATURE.

Last Wednesday the state legislature
convened at theseat Of government and
opened the forty-sixth session. In the
upper branch: ,Senator.McGillivar was
chosen for second time as"president
pro tenn. to preside in the absence of
Lieutenant Governor Davidson. Theo,
W. Coldir of GAINESVILLE, sswas elected
chef clerk, 'and Sanford Mcdonald SER
geant-at-arms. The assembly made
choice of the brilliant young Lenroot of
Superior, for speaker, c. o. Marsh of
Amigo, for clerk, and A. NJ Anderson
sergeant-at-arms.
In the senate committee assignments
Senator Munson will serve in four i'm
portant places-chairman of the joint
committee on printing, on state affairs,
privileges and elections, and insurance
and banking. The house committees
have not yet been announced by Speaker
Lenroot, hence we are not advised of
Assemblymans.Dahls assignments, but
1t is certain that from his long expert
ence, friendship for and support of the
new speaker, his places will be becom-
ing and to his liking.
The session opened devoid of much of
the friction and fractional spirit predict
ed and in fact cultivated by the ire
sponsible press correspondents To be
sure there is evidence for the belief that
fear for the future of the republican
party is the one thing that will restrain
certain members from giving their sup
pSrt in opposition to measures promised
by the party. We have no disposition
to condemn in advance the action of
men. 1t will, however, behoove every
taxpayer to keep scrutinizing eye and
ear on the doings of their representa-
tives. The present session of the legis-
lature can make 1t easy or hard shedding
for the party now in power. And polit-
ical considerations should not be first to
be weighed. The peoples rights and in
terests are to be respected above and be-
yond party.

Fennimore Times If we are to have
a primary election law, we might as
well have it applicable to The election Of

good reason why senators should not be
elected directly by the people, and while
this may not come to pass yet for some
years will come nearer giving the
people the privilege of saying whom
they want than any other method.

A Massachusetts View.

Lincoln knew the southern
country. He knew the negro
race. He could understand, for
he shared, the feeling of the
white people of the south that
the black and the white races
were forever unequal and that
the white race was by nature
superior. He firmly believed in
freedom for the negro, he had
always believed in it, and it
was his hand that set the negro
free; but he did not believe in
the political or social equality
of the races, and he would new.
err have consented to the en-.
franchisement of the whole
horde of the blacks, who had
known nothing higher than
mental slavery and possessed
no fitness of any kind for the
proper exercise of the electoral
franchise.
Whether the enfranchisement
of the negro of the south was
a sentim ntal or purely politi
cal act on the part of the victo,
rious north we shall not no w un
dertake to say, but that it wa S
a mistake. a horrible mistake,
and has been a most complete
and miserable failure, few in
telligent and Impartial! people,
north or south, will now den y.
The horrors of negro domino
tion and carpet bag govern
ment that followed the adop.
tion of the fifteenth amendment
we're an unspeakable outrage
upon the white people of the
south, and no one today won.
