tinnnv Of witnesses as to the specitic
value of property in the city. but there

nary selling value had been taken by

The situation is as good as can be
expected considering the greatness of
the calamity that has befalen rs. The
nation and the world are taking great
interest in our welfare and showing
material and financial aid. The matter
of special session of the legislature

What we need especially is medical

considerable quantities, for some time
to come. An epidemic, does not exist

COUNTY TICKET.
THE ELECTION.

The election is over. The Repub-
licans are keenly disappointed, while
the soreheads, Democrats and Social
lists are jubilant. Governor Gooding
and the entire State ticket have been
elected by comparatively small ma
jorities. Judge Smith, the ablest
man in Canyon County and the Sew
enth Judicial District, has been turn
ed down by Republicans. The Trib-
une thinks that the people have made
serious mistake. While we feel
bitterly, this disappointment, above
all others, we have nothing but sym
pathy for the people of Canyon Coun-
ty and good will for the Democrats.
Our opinion may be in error. We
hope it is. To those. who were elect
ed, we extend congratulations, to the
others, coincidence. Republicans gen.
orally. can blame themselves. They
did it. The old soldier, the w. G. T.
u. the anti-saloon league and others
may congratulate themselves upon
repudiating Governor Gooding, Frank
Smith and w. e. Borah. If they de-
rive any qualification from the fact,
they are welcome to it. The Tribune
don't,
