FIXING THE RESPONSIBILITY.

There seems to be something OF
4 scramble to fix the responsibility
for the present poll tax law some
where else than upon the party who
Is attempting to fix 1t. The question
seems to be--who Is most to blame.
the members OF the legislature who
passed the law requiring all men
and women whether infirm or able
bodied to pay a 50 tax annually. the
tax reform governor who allowed
such q measure to pass and become
law when he might have used his
veto power. or the various boards of
commissioners with whom 1t re-
manned optional whether the new
provision Of the law should be OPP
erat1ve or not. 1t would seem that
a bad measure Is a bad measure,
and that the Legislature and Cover
nor Hawley should be held respon-
6ible for the enactment of a law
permitting the county commission
ers OF the various counties to ex-
ercise IN unwise and unjust policy.
The members of the various county
boards have a right to expect that
the suggestion given them by the
legislature and the governor are In
the nature of an Improvement rather
than otherwise. The fact that the
session laws have not been availa-
Bile until within the last few days
made II Impossible for the commits
sioners to discriminate nicely as to
the ~advisabiity of using the new
poll tax plan. Even now few people
to understand Just what this
new law Is. They only understand
that tax collectors are demanding
that men and women, old and young
are asked to pay an annual fee of
two dollars, and that no exemptions
are made for u or infirmity. We
are inclined to believe that the peo-
pie will discern in this as In other
matters the lack OF wisdom dis
played by Governor Hawley In We
toing a measure that would have put
a digest of the laws. foolish and 9th,

TAX PREDICTIONS.

ton.
That no railroad or other big cor.
poration win have Its assessment
raised in as large a proportion as
the farms and homes of the state
are raised.
That no dividend paying mine In
ldaho--and there are in the Occur
dAenes some of the best dividend
payers in the world-will pay one
half as much total tax this year
rs In other years when their pro-
duction was as large.
That no one who has real money

much taxes as heretofore.

ration will pay as large a sum total
for taxes ass heretofore. except the

That not one of these facts. II

ment against full cash value ASSESS

Big Profit in short Weight Butte,

Zig ffofit III Short Weight Butter
A Carr, proprietor of the Boise
Creamery, pleaded guilty to selling
short-weight butter yesterday after
non in Judge Bowers justice court
and paid a fine of $50 and costs for
the offence. Carr was arrested upon
complaint of James Fl. Wallis. state
pure food commissioner, who on the
previous day weighed So packages of
butter sold by Carr to the Waymire
and Hart grocery stores and did not
find a pound package in the entire
lot. Mr.. Wallis announced that he
proposed to stop the systematic meth
cd of robbing the public by short
weights and would recommend the
maximum fine in such cases in the
future. Insome instances over three
ounces were clipped off the pack
ages. which would give an extra
pound with every five packages.
With 1000 pounds of butter turned
out daily 400 extra pounds of butter
would be made at the rate which
would give the manufacturer 800
cash profits on short weights.
The following shows the packages
weighed and the weights obtained
in each case:
