WANTS ECONOMICAL OFFICER

For the benefit of those who de-
sire to know where all of their tax
money is foolishly spent we want to
mention and comment on the Office
Of mine inspectors. The state of
Idaho pays mine inspector in salary
and expenses something over $4,000
per annum. His duties are the in
spection of mines in mining counties.
For the benefit of few millionaire
mine owners the farmers of Latah
county and other counties are called
upon to foot the bill. A mine in
spector may be necessary, at least
there is demand for such an Office,
in the mining districts. Admitting
that the Office is necessary one why
not make those for whom the Office was
created pay the billi Bank exami-
ners charge each bank for examina-
ton, and we see no reason why the
inspector OF mines should not be paid
in the same manner. The tax payers
should organize all over the state of
Idaho for the purpose of electing
legislature and a Governor who
would go over our laws and remove
the burden from the tax payers Shout
ders of supporting a few hundred
political barnacles who are nothing
but dead weight and hinderances to
the fast progress of our young state.
Troy News.
The News is eminently correct in
It's demand for economy in state ex-
penditures, and its conclusions as to
who should pay the expense Of the
mine inspector appear to be sound.
However, if that is really where all
OF their tax money is foolishly spent, :"
the tax payers are getting off like
finding il The terrible Tenth
has been charged with crimes many
and uncomfortable, but it is not re-
sponsible for the creation of the Office
of Mine Inspector, nor can the pres
ent state administration be charged
with the defects in the law. as might
be inferred from the tone of the
above article. The Globe mentions
this fact simply for the sake of fair
ness and not that it is looking
for an opportunity to champion the
state administration; it is under no
obligations whatever to the Brady ad-
ministration, nor has it anything COM
ing from it, except an unpaid adver-
Using bill, which it has now been
three months trying to collect from
the state board, SO far without success.

AMERICAN ARIsToCRAcY.

eu~ 6"hy NSNOius puOliSnCu III tnt
City of Mexico, who is one of the
most prolific as well as ablest writer.
in the land of Diaz, gives forth the
following able editorial on United
States Snobbery:
American democracy is not a.
fierce" as it was in the Jefferson
Jackson period; and, God wot, it is
getting less fierce as Americans re-
cede, generation following generation,
from that primitive period of Ameri-
can history. The Phrygian cap has
disappeared from the head of the
goddess of liberty on the coin of the
nation; the goddess herself is mod
ern presentment, while even the eagle
has become an up-to-date, droopy sort
OF bird, looking as if he had just been
let out of cage in the geological
gardens; and he never screams
his hoarse challenge is never heard
now from the Fourth O. July ros-
trum, in the forum of senate or house
OF representatives, nor on the political
stump of the backwoods; for, alas,
there are no more ''backwoods."
Something seems to be gangrening
the American body polite in its upper
works-for there are upper works"
in the social anatomy of the Ameri-
can nation and the Glasses" are
mentioned without hesitation in the
best society,"" although as yet there
is not much Of that sort of differenti-
alton uttered by the newspapers,
which claim that the apparent move
ment in the direction of an established
aristocracy, entirely distinct from the
common people" or the plain
people," as they are called by the
demagogues, is only the fux of a
scum on the surface of the event, an
ebullition of froth too tenuous for a
precipitant and not dense enough to
solidify into an upper crust.
Since President Taft announced his
intention of going out among the
people to smile upon them, to shake
hands with them and to say How
dec" in neighborly sort of way,
the better classes" have been moved
to assert themselves.
In Chicago they propose to give
him reception that will make the
Prince Henry affair look like thirty
cents of the Lincoln head variety.
Nobody will be invited except the
elite of the elite, the creme de
creme, the money-and-pedigree set,
the grandfather class whose quality
has been duly accredited by Mrs.
Richardson, sub-proctor for all the
Americas from the herald's college
Of London.
And in Seattle the same hifalutin
didoes are contemplated under the d.
rection of one Collins, who happens
to be chairman of arrangements or
something of that sort in the Alaska
Yukon exposition.
No indeed, the fierce" democ-
racy of the old-fashioned time of hard
cider and homespun, of corn-pone
and hominy, of coon-skins and log
cabins-the time when it was the
American boast that he could whip
his way in wildcats and called him
self sovereign-is gone or going;
and the better classes of Newport
and New York, of Chicago and Sc
attle, have arrived to stay. It's fus-
tan crowd of observation-disclosures, to
be sure; but what could you expect
As the output OF fierce democracy
that has lost its original ferocity'

READY IN NINETY DAYS
Holtou Power company's New Plant at HoltvlIe to Be Hurried
 to Completion.

Laying of foundations for the new power plant of the Holton Power Com pany at Holtville will begin the first of next week. The excavations for the main building are practically com pleted Most of this earth has been removed in a rather unusual manner. The building site is a short distance below the present power house, and water from the tail-race has been di- verted to the new site and discharged so that it carried into the Alamo R'TeT the earth from the 30x50 foot tract which had to be excavated. The earth was washed down the river and de- posted as silt on flats north of Braw. ley.
 The new power plant will stand on a lower level than the present one, so as to have the advantage of the fall from the present turbine wheel to the rivers level On the river side the building will have face of fifty feet i'll height.
 More than 500 cubic yards of con- crete will be used in the construction of the foundations for this plant Brick walls will arise on these foundations. It is expected the plant will be com pleted within ninety days. The ma chinery is now on the ground, and most of the building material is as sembled.
 The new plant will have produc' ing capacity of 100 horsepower of 800 Kilowatts. The demands for cleo trical energy have become so great on the Holton Power Company that the new plant will be pushed forward at the utmost speed, The present plant supplies power to every city in Imperial Valley and is carrying its full capacity. As soon as the new plant is able to generate power, a portion of it will be used to increase | the output at the Fl Centro ice plant

It was decided to take in new capital by the sale of s5OOO of the treasury stock, and the business is to be gener- ally increased in scope. The com pany has engaged the services of MT. Ralston, an expert machinery man from the east, and he will devote his time to the implement and vehicle business.

WILL BUILD ENGINE HOUSE
City Trustees Award Contract for Fire Fighting Headquarters to Be
 Constructed at Once.

El Centro is to have a convenient fire engine house, built on skids in such a manner that it may be moved from one location to another. The purpose is to maintain it in a location as near the business center as prac- ticable, and to occupy one of the va cant lots until the land is to be used for a permanent building.

 The building is to be 14x16 feet, with ten-foot walls. The walls are to be covered with sheet metal made to initiate stone blocks, and the roof Is to be covered with rolled steel. A tower Is to ariserin the center of the roof, and in this is to be swung the fire bell.
 The building complete, including painting and hanging of the fire gong, is to cost $340.
 The board at this meeting adopted a schedule of prices to be charged by the City Engineer for certain work. He is allowed to charge $3.50 for twenty-five foot lots and $5 for sixty foot lots for setting the stakes and inspecting the work where sidewalks and curbs are put ill by owners under private contract.
 Trustee D. D. Pellet was allowed further time to complete the expert ing of the books of municipal officers.
 A request of the Salvation Army that it be allowed to erect a meeting tent on either lots 20 or g of block 25 was denied.
