WHAT HAPPENED.

w, ~, The late political mixup at the
Idaho nub of intellectual, moral
and spiritual virtue, affords a per-
,ennial supply of interesting subjects
and phases for public discussion.
It will be recalled that, according
to the Statesman and the other
newspapers of Boise, with the ex-
ception of the waspy little Clipper,
the ''solid army of evir' was ar
rayed against the solid army of
parity, piety and patriotism. The
"solid army of evir' consisted of
the Republican party led by Borah,
Huston, Richards and others of
equal note and ability. The solid
army of purity, piety and patriotism
consisted of the Democratic party,
the churches, the Civic League and
the Labor Unions, led by the States

TWO LINES.

There are two lines of criticism
of the present State administration,
represented respectively by the
Lewiston Tribune and the Boise
News. The Lewiston paper finds
fault in the Governor because all of
the funds belonging to educational
institutions have not yet been in
vested in interest prodn<ing securi-
ties. It seems to be ignorant of the
fact that whatever funds there may
be uninvested are right where they
were put and kept for six years by
Democratic administrations. 1t is
not exactly just to attack a Repub-
lican administration for failing to
correct in six months all the errors
made by Democrats in six years.
Republicans, to be sure, are apt at
Strengthening things out, but there
are limitations to all human efforts
except possibly to those of Democ-
racy in tangling things up. Now

put it in beautiful language like the
Lewiston editor puts his side of it
but the real way of it, as plain.
honest people talk, was this:
When the Democrats went out,
they left between two and three
hundred thousand dollars of school
monies lying around promiscuously,
earning nothing for nobody except
possibly the State Treasurer. There
was no question as to what ought
to be done with that money, so the
new administration at once began
to invest it, and in a very short
time had it all placed, thus securing

JUST ONE: WORD.

THE CALDWELL TRIBUNE is the
Oldest paper in Canyon County. 1t
has been here nearly quarter of a
century and during that time has
been consistently advocating the
resources, advantages and beauties
of Canyon County and of the Boise
valley in particular. We have
watched Caldwell, her surrounding
country and the neighboring towns,
grow, prosper and develop with
pride and pleasure. It has always
been a source Of qualification to see
the country progress. THE TRIB-
UNE has developed and grown with
the place. This issue contains in
addition to our regular local news,
editorial comment and general re-
view. the official proceedings of the
Board of County Commissioners,
the annual and quarterly report of
the auditor, making it very valu-
able number. A copy of this issue
should be in every home in Canyon
County. Again we would call at
tention to the fact that THE TR1g-
uNE is the only paper in the county
which published the proceedings of

4 COED BOARD

Whenever public officers admin
lister the affairs intrusted TO them
with care and wisdom, it is proper
that appreciation OF their efforts
should find pubic expression.
There is no danger but that their
shortcomings will receive ample
attention. The three gentlemen
who compose the board of commits
sioners Of this county have GER
tainly acquitted themselves in a
most creditable way. Without be-
ing niggardly they have been watch
full of public expenditure, applying
the pruning knife Of economy
wherever it could be applied judi
ciously. They have gotten along
pleasantly with all the other county
officers and have had no unseemly
differences among themselves. They
" a 10
have steadily grown in public es-
TEEN from the day they were in
stalled in Office, and it may be
truthfully said of them that at the
expiration of a fourth of their term
they constitute the most popular
board Of commissioners this county
has ever had. A notable instance
Of their sound Judgment and proper
appreciation of a fellow officer was
in their action as a board of equali-
cation. Boards of commissioners,
sitting to equalize taxes, too often
get the notion that they will be
derelict of duty if they fail to make
numerous changes in the tax roll.
Their idea is that the first business
in equalization is to do some indis-
eliminate tax raising. Of course,
1t amounts to nothing, or practically
nothing, in the end, but the lifting
has to be done to show the COM
missioners' keen sense of duty, and
advertise the assessor as either in
competent or dishonest. The pres
ent board went carefully over the
assessment roll with view to dis
covering actual and substantial in
equa1ities If any existed. They
found nothing Of sufficient conse-
quence to demand action on their
part, but were able to approve of the
assessors work in its entirety and
this they did in the most emphatic
way by refusing to make any alter
atoms on their own motion. This
was high and no doubt we'll de-
served compliment to Mr.. Hamill,
the assessor, and speaks we'll for
the good sense and broadness of
mind Of the commissioners. THE
TRIBUNE feels that it is in position
to say to the people of this county
that Messrs. Lanktree. Plat and
Mcclure make as good board of
commissioners as needs be. they
are each and all possessed Of sterl-
ing integrity, sound, practical COM
nonsense and good ability. We
expect, from week to week, to go
down the line and tell our readers
what kind OF stuff the rest of the
officers are made of. We hope they
may turn out as we'll as the COM
lnissioners, but before expressing
an opinion we shall make some in
vestigation.

publican party, and had practically
controlled its convention On the
outside this was accepted as the
truth. and the degradation Of the
Republicans Of Boise was lamented
and deplored from one end Of the
State to the other. Since election
there have been developments.
The Republicans stoutly maintain
that the discrepancies held them
selves apart until midnight preced-
ing the election, and, then, for SUM
dry substantial considerations vent
over bodily to the opposition.
Whatever may have been the situa-
ton at the beginning of the cam
paign, it seems to be quite true
that at the end the disreputables
were with the army of purity, piety
and patriotism. In order to be
just in the discussion of this subject,
we must credit both sides with
equal candor and truthfulness. 1t
appears that in the early stages of
the conflict the toughs and tinhorns,
drunkards and prostitutes were in
clined to favor the Republican side,
and SO expressed themselves. But
they were not fanatical about it.
That class is seldom over jealous
in its political enterprises. They
simply let it go out that unless
something happened" they would
vote for Mr.. Pinuey. This, we
trust, will not be construed as a
suggestion to the other side that it
would better have something hap
pen. 1t was merely an ingenious
confession of internal conviction.
The disreputables are extremely in
genuous. AS time moved on the
disreputables became ever more
firmly convinced that they would
vote for Pinney unless something
happened, and in thei ingenious
way they expressed themselves
with increasing loudness and en-
phasis. Now, nobody knows what
it was, but the night before election
there was happening" Some
say it came in the form of $4,000.
borrowed from a bank on the corner
opposite a fish market and Judi
ciously invested; others declare it
was simply promised immunities,
but we cheerful1y discard these en-
vidious suggestions. We believe
that representative of the States
man and Mr.. Flood of the News,
the President of the Civic League
and Ministers of the Gospel, Mr..
Hawley and others of the moral
forces went down into the resorts
of iniquity and by their earnestness
and elOnuence converted the ha hit,1ae
of those bad places to the prin-
ciples of purity and righteousness.
We can almost see those disciples
of goodness laboring with the down
fallen in the midst of all the al
lurements and implements of vice.
1t is a beautiful fancy, and, though
based on conjecture, may be accept
ed as truth until exploded.
