THE EVENING PRESS.

The publisher of the Daily Press
is more than pleased with the loyal
support given the enterprise both by
business men and citizens. 1t speaks
well for the enterprise and public
spirit Of those who have cast their lot
in this garden of the west. Occur
d'Alene grows because her business
men and citizens believe in the city
and give its public enterprises their
hearty support. With this the first
Issue of daily newpsper in Kooten-
nj county, we find most of our bust
ness and professional men represent
ed in its columns.
Thu. daily is launched as a business
enterprise, and because we believe
that the growth, and prosperity of the
city demands something more than a
weekly newspaper. 1t will be devoted
chiefly to the publication of local,
county and state news, with tele-
graph press report covering the i'm
portant happenings Of the world.
In political matters it will be
broad guage and independent, but not
neutral. The best interests of Occur
d'Alene and its citizens, regardless
ct party affiliations, will be advocat-
cd and supported by the daily Press
and in return we ask reciprocal sup
port from the people. The future Of
the Daily Press Is largely in their
hands.

narrates that those in charge told him

he had been hearing of such gravel all
his life but had never seen any; they
Wonld have to show him, This
challenge was promptly accepted.
Going to the point where the rich
channel had been opened, they pro-
'ceeded TO make test.
The bank had been caved in and
rocks and trees thrown on it in order

pANGERous RusrNEss.

It is not every woman who knows how to handle shooting irons with pro- per regard for the safety of others. The papers have been telling us the story of a duel recently fought about man by two women in Kentucky. They were in deadly earnest, and blazed away with what they evidently considered good craftsmanship till their guns were empty. So far only one ball has been located and that was in the body of man who was watching the per- formance from the door of a saloon on the other side of the street. The rest of the bullets are probably scattered over the adjoining territory, or are exploring the atmosphere somewhere
 Promiscuous duelling of this kind is not to be condoned, even where the contestants are men. for they are about as likely in many cases to hit the fin nocent by-stander" as they are to plug an antagonist, but we insist that it would be much safer for the average woman to use a hat-pin than a gun. She would do more damage to her am ldBohlStS ana less 10 observers than she can with a revolver.
 But there are those who will object to applying the term innocent by stander" to the man who caught the stray bullet They Will contend that he had no business in saloon, and that he ought to have been shot for being there. That is a question of moral ethics that we shall not discuss, for all will not look at it just the same way Our contention is that when two women want to practice mark manship on each other they should be about the center of a broad prairie, or shut themselves up in room with thick walls. Human life is too precious to be placed in jeopardy in this Ken lucky way,

NO CAUSE FOR SUCH MIsINFoRMA-
 TION.


 There is about as much gross ignor- ance concerning tax values in Alaba- ma as on any subject now before the people The total assessment or all the real and personal property In tnis State for taxation purposes for the tax assessment year beginning October ISL 1904, was ss44, ,0o0,O 900. Of this amount there was assessed against railroads s54, ,0oo, ,o0o, or nearly one-sixth of the entire amount In addition to this they pay considerable amount on property which is not assessed by the State Board, but by the County officials. Yet in the face of this high valuation ex- Mayor walsh, of Mobile, in a publish cd card says:
 am in favor of a system of taxa wifi De cornpelied fo, bear their just share of the public burden. The laws of Alabama provide for tax commits soner to iSok afte. the Somm9n, nos ,dpstly psIly valued, but I am 'informeds there IS no one to look after the railroads, which i am further informed are assessed at only about IS per cent Of their VaAues.
 If the railroads are assessed at only IS per cent. of their values, 1t is a log ical conclusion that Mir. Walsh desires them to pay the entire taxation assess ment of the State, for they are now paying 16 per cent of all the tax that is collected for State and County pur- poses It is a fact that railroads are taxed at a higher rate than any other property in Alabama, that is. they come nearer paying taxes on property value than any other tax payers. If other property is increased in valuation in the proportion which MT. Walsh wishes that of railroads to be increased, we would have total valuation of over s2.0o0. 100000 from which to collect taxes and to receive the amount of taxes now paid into the State Treasury we would need a rate of less than one and a half mills instead of six and half, which we now have. If other property. in this State paid taxes on valuation anywhere like the railroads pay. taxes could now be easily reduced one-third.
 Mr. Walsh also seems ignorant of the fact that more care is taken in the matter of taxing railroads than any other property. The Governor, Treas urer, Auditor and Secretary of State, with the Attorney General in advisory capacity and vote. when there is a tie, fix the valuation for railroads and if they can not be trusted, then the case is hopeless. They increased the railroad valuation about $4,00o,o0o at their last sitting Shall we confiscate railroad property and free ali other property of taxation?

 A panic of 1893 is still referred to now and then, as well 1t may, and when a Republican organ does SO 1t usually socks it to the Democrats in good old orthodox fashion. But The Boston Advertiser is an exception Either it forgot for the moment the organs orthodox creed on this subject or concluded that after all these --ears an incidental statement of the real truth would do no harm. Referring to the Harrison administration in :t recent issue, The Advertiser said:
 The Republican President was more or less with the agirators, because that seemed to be the popular side There is no doubt that free silver bill would have been passed and signed by the President if the Senate had been forced to give way to the popular clamor. The Senate did hold out to some ex- tent. It did give way at the end, how ever and the result was a compromise. The popular demand in the West was at least powerful enough to force eveu Sherman to agree to this silver-pur- chase act, which brought on the panic
 At last a Republican organ has con4 fessed that the mischief was done bee fore the Democrats elected their Pres ident in 1892 While The Advertiser was about it, the further admission that the undoing of the mischief was due to the Roman firmness of Pres4 ident Cleveland and the rallying to his

We cannot avoid the feeling that the Supreme Court of Connecticut has low cred the standing of the judiciary of that State by a recent decision. Con ne:ticut, like many other States, has a constitutional provision against in- craasing the salary of any official while in office. It is in the form of a con- stitutional amendment and is in these words;
 Neither the General Assembly nor any county, city, borough, town or school district, shall have power to pay or grant any extra compensation to any public officer, employe, agent or ser want, or increase the compensation of any public officer or employe to take effect during the continuance in office of any person whose salary might be increased thereby. or increase the pay or compensation of any public contrac- tor above the amount specified in the contract. ,"
 To the ordinary lay mind. under standing the meaning of English words, that sounds plain and unequivocal. Nevertheless, the last session of the Legislature passed an act increasing the salaries of the judges of the su- prCme and Superior Courts of the State, to take effect at once The Governor promptly vetoed it, and, as The Hart ford Courant says that veto "set the bill in such a position before the public that 1t lost with most peple what char acter it had had, and that paper fur ther declares that the whole story of the affair Is disagreeable, not to say discreditable. The bill was announced as drawn oy a State attorney. and State attorneys are appointed by the judges and hold office subject to their action; it was championed in the Legislature by another State attorney, and is de- clared thus to owe it's appearance and passage to persons who are indebted for their salaries to those who benefit by it's terms.
 Notwithstanding these facts, the question of paying the increased sala- ries got Into the courts and finally went to the Supreme Court foc adjudication. It really seems that if the judges had possessed a proper regard for the deli cate responsibilities of their position they could in some way have avoided
