question whether or not the situation
has been improved.
There is decided opinion prevalent
that Lewiston can well afford to stand
out against both Spokane and Walla
waIla on the question of dates. Lew
iston has been a successful attraction
and has no territorial conflict with
either of the other places. The man.
ayers Of the Northwest racing circuit
saw fit to cut out Lewiston dates this
year. but they can not control the
horsemen who are more than pleased
with the treatment they received at
Lewiston last year. Lewiston is strong
enough to proceed Independently and
pull off successful meeting, and loses
point in playing directly into the
hands OF those interested in the break
ing up Of the Lewiston meeting.
On the other hand the conflict with
Nezperce Is territorial conflict and
will draw off exhibits and crowds that
in former years have Helped to make
the Lewiston fair success. There is
every reason to believe that the Nez-
nerce prairie country will make siren
uous protest to the change and the
people will rally Loyalty to the support
Of their own fair to the detriment OF
the Lewiston meeting. readjustment
Of the whole question would seem ad-
visable.

THE RUSSIAN CRISIS

The Russian situation Is conceded to
be desperate. but there is not the faint
sest sign of surrender. limitations are
made in st. Petersburg that the cap
xxare OF Port Arthur would not make
Ruusia hospitable to the idea of peace.
It Is evident that the cars advisers
are not yet thinking Of accepting any
OF the overtures for mediation which
have been unofIicially and informally

posed with Neperce and 4 Is an open
The daily sentinel., 1904-10-26


A considerable portion of the earn
ings. over and above living of the
average man goes into the payment
of taxes. The taxes paid are far in
excess of what they should be and the
reason thereof is because of the loose
methods in which the affairs of local
government are administered. Does
anyone believe for one half minute
that large concern used to handling
men and finance would not have per-
formed all the work of this county at
one hale the expense. The Sentinel
has ever contended that the men en-
trusted to perform the duties connect
ed with the local city and county gov
ernment should he we'll paid for their
services, but not extravagantly SO. 1t
has contended that some of the offices
of the county have been extravagantly
administered, because men have been
employed whose abilities are less than
commonplace and who were totally
untitled for the duties which they
undertook to perform. 1t is reform
in this direction which is needed and
which will reduce taxation and the
democratic party has promised TO
make this reduction.

Fourke Cochran says that republican
institutions will peris: in this country
if there is continuance of republican
rule. because representative govern
ment has already perished in Colora-
do. - There is more truth to the
assertion OF this great orator than it
is credited with. He did not make
it as mere figure of speech but most
seriously and stated at the time he
made it. that it was n serious matter.
If the election of Roosevelt and the
continuation of the republican party
in power means the destruction of
the form of our government. it is high
time that all party distinctions are
thrown to tie winds and men vote for
the maintenance of the free institu-
tions of the government.

ticket endorses Peabody and his acts.
We have been informed that some of
the candidates ON the republican ticket
are janus faced and talk one way to
those republicans who dislike Pea
body and his methods and another
way to those who favor him. They
should be honest with their own
people. They should be manly
enough to own up to the fact that
thev are Peabody supporters. The
easiest way for republican to vote
in this state this year is to vote the
entire democratic ticket.

Another wailing cry for republi-
cans to stand by their ticket was issu-
ed last night by the owned organ of
the republican party. 1t advances no
argument or line of reasoning why
the peonle of this county should sup
port the local republican ticket. save
the Gry of party fealtv. Evidently
the republican organ has reaosu to
believe that the republicans who think
for themselves, won't stand by the
party this time, and he has reason to
think thus. The people want re-
duction of the burdensome taxation
under which they have staggered for
years.

Because The Sentinel said that W.
Guy Boyer would reduce the expenses
of the office of county clerk and re-
corder. by looping off a few OF the
unnecessary clerks, the republican or
gan goes into fit and says that we
stated that Mr.. Bower would do work
cheap. Mr.. Boyer said nothing of
the kind. Upon the face of the argu-
that thev desire to be misleading.
Mr.. Boyer will simply do what the
taxpayers demand, run the office
at the least cost to the taxpayers.

The count Hulaniski. who for
many years has been the editor of the
Ouray Plaindealer. has always had a
supreme contempt for the fellows at
tempting to conduct the da,lies in the
smaller towns and cities in the state.
He was induced. according to his own
statement, to attempt the publication
of daily paper in Salida and his ex-
perience has been one that has taught
him that it takes considerable work
and some ability at leaet. to conduct
even small paper. The Chronicle,

The editor of the republican sheet
asserts that the atmosphere was chill
ly in the extreme" at the big demo-
cratic rally Monday night. The
seven or eight hundred people who
were present at that meeting. and
there were some republicans present,
will know that such statement is
contrary to the truth. There was
unbounded enthusiasm. The Park
opera house echoed and reechoed
with applause at the telling points of
Governor Thomas speech. AS the
writer of that expression was not pes
ent himself he is hardly good judge.

Something is radically wrong in
Denver that there has been nothing
in any of the papers for three days
of Mrs. Phipps and her movements,
also those of A. Hart Mckee and Mrs
Cornelia Baxter Tevis. In the old
days for woman to travel around
with a man at her heels. as Mrs.
Tevis has been doing. was considered
far from the proper thing to do. but
it does not appear to effect Mrs. Cor
