pie are spending their money here, is
a question that is debatable regardless
Of what Mr.. Smith thinks about it.
Glittering gold may be badge OF
honor and the only requisite for full
some fattery and blind alteration, and
the Mirror editor may cover the whole
bunch Of timber operators with his
richest brand of cheap praise, yet It
proves nothing except that Editor
Smith is slick old CRATER whose sole
ambition is to curry favor and put him
self in line for political job. Smith
wants nomination. He wants to go
to Boise and he is willing to get down
on his knees and kiss the pedal ex-
tremities Of the man who will have
votes to deliver next fall.
Now let US examine the case.
Even Mr.. Smith will admit that the
Potlatch Lumber Company deserved
to be criticised for their attempt to
beat the county and state out of$1O0,-
900 OF taxes. And Mr.. Smith knows,
and ought TO admit, that company
that has brazenly resorted to bribery,
intimidation and corruption to debauch
men and secure unjust Legislation de-
serves the best drubbing that any re-
spectacle editor can dish up. Nor
ought Mr.. Smith to deny that these
people he now feels have been SO I'M
Justly criticised, did deliberately lie
to and deceive the people Of Latah
county, hoping to purchase thereby in
fluence in behalf Of corrupt legislation.
Yet Mr.. w. D. Smith, editor Of the
great Moscow weekly, wants the peo-
pie to forget the past and accept these
grafters, these boodlers, these bribe-
givers, as great public benefactors, en-
titled to all honor and confidence.
Why not first insist that these people
show a disposition to act honestly and
fairly with the public? Even though
their sins are many, the News is ready
to join Brother Smith in his praise and
and cheap hlttery the moment VIM.
Deary, the Potlatch Lumber company,
and their boodlers repent Of their ways
and promise to do better.
But is Mr.. Smith one justified in hi
present course? We think so. The
man who will betray trust imposed
upon him by lodge and resort to the
low down trickery recently practiced
by Mr.. Smith in his recent purchase
Of piece Of Moscow property is a
most fit person to come to the rescue
Of other gentlemen as honest as him
self.

The Troy News, in common with
all men OF our county, is in favor Of
equal taxation. Not only in favor but
demand it. The News demands that
the present unequal mine taxation law
be so changed as to compel the mil
lionaire mine owners to pay an equal
tax with the farmer. We demand that
every mile Of railroad be equally taxed.
We demand equal tax rates on every
dollars worth Of property in the
state, but like a great majority OF the
people Of Idaho equal taxation will
never come through such old poll
ticians as Ex-Governor Mcconnell.
Mcconnell is not sincere. He cares
nothing about equal taxation. What
he wants is political prestage and
takes this means Of getting it.

HOT SHOT FROM PocATELLo.

The Tribune says: w. ]. McCon-
nell, self-constituted president Of the
Equal Taxation League, composed Of
himself and another fellow whose
name we have forgotten, neither Of
whom have paid any taxes in Idaho
since the memory OF man runneth not
and probably never intend to, has
written another letter and published
the same in several papers and has
favored the Tribune with copy. The
ex-governor pretends the communica-
ton is in reply to an article appearing
in the Tribune few days ago in which
the hypocricy and perfdy of the ex-
governor was very plainly stated in his
connection with his antitaxation scheme
and other matters,and the truth OF which
Mcconnell cannot successfully contro-
vert, but the ex-govnor, with his char
acteristic cunning which has been shar-
pened by long years of experience in
that particular line, ignors the charges
made by the Tribune and writes pit
iful letter, and says the Tribune objects
to him because he is poor and be-
cause he recently joined the church.
The ex-governor intended to work The
sympathy racket. The Tribune in
that article called him poor old crea-
ture The ex-governor might be
worth million and is, for all the
Tribune knows and still be poor old
creature. Nothing was said by the
Tribune about the poverty Of the ex-
governor. But the Tribune knows
what kind of creature the ex-gover-
nor is and the Tribune expressed the
real truth very mildly when it referred
to the ex-governor as poor creature.
The ex-governor finds it convenient
just now to begin masquerading un-
der cloak Of religion plastered up
with few patches Of poverty and
wants to haunt them both in the face
OF the public with characteristic brazen-
ness. We would like to see every
body religious and we don't even
criticise those who have gone the
pace" and are adopting religion as a
belated expedient, and we wish them
all we'll in their efforts, but we prefer
the ex-governor in his natural state
and we absolutely refuse to insult any
church or creed by connecting the
ex-covernor's name with it.

IS MAKING GOOD.

The Boomers Ferry Herald last week
said:
This has been very busy year in
the land department. In addition to
transacting the ordinary business of
the department, selections to the ex-
tent OF over 21O, 900 acres have been
made, as against a little over 100000
in the 10 years previous. Then again
each legal subdivision has been care
fully inspected and its value deter
mined before filing, which has not al
ways been the case in the past. 1t
should be born in mind also that
selections are much more difficult to
make now than few years ago, be-
cause so much less desirable land to
select from. Mr.. Munson has demon
strated that his selection for COM
missioner was a particularly fortunate
one, having handled his department
with energy as well as good sense and
honesty. He is making a spleneid
record"
Col. Shaver will please take notice
The above is doubly interesting from
the fact that it was the opinion Of Mr.
Henry c. that the Lord intended Mr.
Munson for a job requiring no more
ability or brains than the man with
the hoe" only in Munson's case i
was to be a prubbinp hoe or a brush Ak
Come to think about it we believ,
the Star editor did admit that Mr.
Munson might possibly know enough
to cut cord wood. 1t may have oc
cured to the Colonel by this tim,
that even men living on farms and VIII,
sometimes cut wood and maui rail

is SMITH THE MAN?

Editor Smith Of the Moscow Mirror
is elated over the wonderful develop
ment going on in the northern section
of the county, and thinks it a shame
that anyone would say a mean thing
about the people who are developing
this great section by building mills and
railroads. So far as the development
of the county is concerned we are just
as glad Of it as is our friend Smith, but
that the Potlatch Lumber company is
above just criticism for crookedness
and crime, simply because these peo-

This week one Of the Troy meat
markets was supplying its customers
with corn fed hogs, raised by Little
Bear Ridge farmer. From inquiring
the News editor has been informed
by several Potlatch farmers that even
in this country the best and cheapest
pork is corn fed. Instead of permit
ting the farms Of this section to lay
idle every third year, The Potlatch far
mer raises a good crop Of corn or beans,
both Of which are certain and profitable.
Now, why isn't this kind Of land worth
great deal more that the kind that is
good only for wheat?

Six months ago the Moscow Star
was calling c.. Munson an "ignor-
ant Swede" and other pet names. AS
usual the Colonel was wrong. Mr..
Munson has more than made good and
the fact is so apparent that the people
of this state, regardless Of politics, are
saying the very kindest things about
Munson's services to the state. Now
Mr.. Shaver had every reason to know,
because Mr.. Munson had long
been prominent in the affairs of this
county, that his charges at that time
were, if they were anything at all,
mean, malicious, malignant falsehoods,
the author of whom deliberately re-
sNtsd to SANDER and abuse, for no
better reason than the fact
that Charles J.. Munson re-
fused to be party to dirty work
necessary for the success Of the gang
Of which Colonel Shaver is the plant
and willing tool. Let the voters Of
Latah comfy remember these things
when this mugwamp editor of the
Moscow Daily Journal and also the
Weekly Star begins again, as he SO
aften has in the past, his wild ianting
about public men. One whose closet
is as full Of foul things as is that of the

earth to say a word about decent,
honest men.

SEEDING IN FEBRUARY.
Many Farmers Sow Seen In February
and March Great Deal Of Crop

e =.
Many Farmers Sow Seen In February
and March-Gre Deal Of Crop
Now In.
During the last days Of February
and early in March enough seed was
sown and enough general work done
on the fields of North Dakota to war
rant the assertion that seeding had
commenced. The warm weather OF
those days followed, Of course, by
frost which, though not severe, was
sufficient to put a stop to field work.
Within the past week the weather has
warmed up again, and though It has
been cloudy in the valley, and drying
has progressed slowly, farther west
the sun has shone, the fields have
dried again and seeding is again in
progress. Should this condition con-
tinue it will be most unusual, as the
average time for the beginning of
seeding is along about the end Of the
first week in April. Hence it would
not be surprising for the drills and
harrows again to be put out of bust.
ness for few days. .+
Throughout the state the fields are
In ideal condition for work, or they
will be as soon as the frost is out a
couple of inches more. The snowfall
all over the state has been very light,
and the only complaint heard is OF
lack of moisture. A shower any time
within a few weeks would remedy
this condition where it exists. The
average of land plowed is large, and
the prospects for large crop acreage
are excellent.
