second is that persons in high au-
thority who are interested in the
growth of Boise are using other pro-
posed appropriation bills as a club
with which to force through the pres
ent legislature an appropriation of $50,
600 for the capitol building. In the
first instance Idaho is enjoying the
experience OF practically every other
state in the union in the erection of a
state capitol. We believe that there
is not a state whose capitol was erec-
ted at reasonable cost, and the work
manship and material is up to the
standard. The capitol buildings OF
New York and Pennsylvania are
notorious in regard to cost. The
graft in connection with those two
buildings amounted to between fifty
and hundred million dollars. Idaho
is not going so strong, but it is ap-
parent that we are on our way to the
extent iof our ability. Craft has not
been reduced to a fine art in Idaho.
We are rather crude yet but we are
learning fast.
The attempt to use necessary ap-
preparation bills to force through the
capitol appropriation of $7s0.OO will
not be looked upon with indifference
by the people of Idaho. They are al
ready overburdened with taxation as
Governor Haines pointed out in his
message to the legislature. Two and
a half million dollars is the estimated
cost of the capitol The completed
building will not be needed for ten
years or more. 1t is not fair to the
taxpayer to make such an appropria-
ton at the present time. The only
purpose that will be accomplished
now is to keep things going at Boise.
The adornment of Boise is probably
necessary. 1t surely needs something.
but not to the extent of three quart
ers of million dollars.
The Tribune trusts that the Canyon
county delegation will not be hood
winked into supporting any such an
appropriation at this time.

ST. VALENTINES DAY.

February IA is not anticipated by
the young folks of to-day with the
fervor of yore. Many of us can
remember the thrills with which the
youngsters once viewed this Feast
of Cupid. The choice of the appro-
pirate valentine to send to the imam
orata was very heart-throbbing af-
fair.
One longed to send something fairly
throbbing with affection, yet feared
to risk his cause by too bold an avow-
al. So the lacey creations of the
store window were scrutinized for
days, before one could determine just
the right degree of emotion to be
expressed.
This is an out-of-doors age, in
which calf love is greeted with ridicule
The fellow who should send one OF
the sentimental affairs of yesterday
would never hear the last of it until
February IA, 1914. The young folks
jolly each other by stock witticisms
on post cards.
Meanwhile the children pledge life
long affection to the little Miss Petit
coats whose ears they propose sound
ly to box the next day.

from overproduction by reason of the
fact that he has underproduced. Five
hundred tons of alfalfa hay in the
Boise valley more than can be con-
sumed in the Boise valley might bear
the market price and yet in thous-
and places there would be demand
for that hay. Too much hay has not
been produced, but the markets have
not been provided. Apples are SELL
ing in Caldwell for 50 cents a box,
and the same apples are selling in
New York for three dollars a box.
There are too many apples in Caldwell
and not enough in New York. The
step to be taken by producers of all
kinds is to so organize that the mar
kets can be supplied. Poultry fur
nishes concrete example. Since the
farmers have gone in for poultry on
large scale big poultry dealers of
the coast have established agencies
here. They will buy all the poultry
we can produce and at higher figure
than ever before. The reason is that
our supply can be depended upon.
Our farmers have made it worth while
for men like Mace of Portland to
keep in touch with Boise valley farm
ers. Mace could not afford to MAIN
tain an agency in Caldwell for four or
five hundred chickens a year. He can
we'll afford to do so for several thous-
and. 1t will work out the same with
fruit, potatoes or anything else that
can be shipped. 1t maybe entirely
possible to raise too much alfalfa hay
but We doubt it. Somewhere in this
country there is a demand for that
hay. We must get in touch with that
market. The people in Omaha or
Pittsburg do not how much hay the
farmers of Caldwell may have. And
as matter of fact few Caldwell
farmers know the market price of
hay outside of their immediate sec
ton.
1t has come to the attention OF
every person that the product of some
section is selling at premium while
an equally good product of another
section goes begging. This is be-
cause the product of the former Sec
ton has good reputation. Idaho
potatoes we're sold as a Colorado
product until we acquired a reputa-
ton. The reputation depends upon
the product being standard. Honesty
in pack and quality makes the reputa-
lion. When we have become educated
10 the point where we will insist upon
strict honesty in the sale of. our pro-
ducts and organized so that market
conditions are known rather than
guessed at and large enough to at
tract the attention of the markets
there will be no question of an over
supply.

A SPLENDID RECORD.

A couple of years ago Postmaster
General Hitchcock was the center of
attack by the magazines of the coun-
try He had pointed out that the
monthly magazines and periodicals
were getting a great deal for nothing.
The periodicals were devoting about
twice or three times the space to ad-
vertisments that they were to reading
matter The Postmaster General sug-
gested that they be permitted the
second class mail privilege only on
the reading matter and that the adj
vertising matter take higher rate.
The suggestion aroused storm of
protest. 1t was not adopted. How
ever a method of sending out the
magazines by freight instead OF by
fast mail was adopted and tried out.
This too aroused the opposition of
the magazines. Ever since he be-
came Postmaster General Mr.. Hitch
cock has been a storm center. In
spite of all opposition he went on his
way increasing the efficiency and re-
ducing the cost of his department.
Now that his annual report is avail
able the public generally can inform
itself of the real reforms accom-
plished. 1t is admitted that Mr..
Hitchcock has made a splendid re-
cord. The annual deficit has been
wiped out and surplus has taken its
place. The condition of the depart
ment is such that one cent postage for
first class mail is in sight The Post
master General recommends that it
be adopted and points out how it can
be done. The scope and usefulness.
of the parcels post can also be en-
larged owing to the reforms accom-.
plished. Mr.. Hitchcock has both re-
duced the cost of handling the mail
and increased the efficiency and use

Whatever you may think OF the
Taft administration as whole you
will have to admit that he was the
first president to place the postofice
department on business footing. We
rather suspect that the reports of the
other departments will show a similar
state of affairs. President Taft has
worked increasingly to effect an eco
nomical administration. The splen.
did and convincing report of Mr.
Hitchcock shows that he was success.

OVER PRODUCTION IMPoS.
SIBIE.

In spite of the constantly increasing
cost OF living great many people are
worried about overproduction of this
or that product, Over production of
any food product that the people use
every day is impossible. and yet in
a sense it is happening every year in
the Boise valley Paradoxical as !,
may seem over production is very
frequently under production. When
the farmer produces more than his
immediate neighborhood can consume
and less than enough to attract the at
tention OF the big markets he suffers

ECONOMY MUST START AT
HOME.

The suggestion made by The
Tribune several months ago that 4
great saving might be made in the
expenses of city government by EN-.
ploying city manager is meeting
with the hearty endorsement of a
great many taxpayers. 1t is easily
apparent that the present system
gives us neither efficiency nor eco
nomy in the administration of NUM-
cipal government The plan of gov
eminent which provides for a compel
ent manager has met with success in
other communities. There is no par
ticular reason why it should not be
equally successful in this city. There
are men who can introduce system
into city affairs. Such men are cap
able of pointing out the leaks and the
methods of stopping them. AT pres
ent we believe that there is no one
who really knows where economy can
be properly practiced. We all know
that the cost of government is too
high. We all know that our taxes are
greatly in excess of what they should
be. How and where the cost may be
reduced is known to very few. Even
our city officials do not know. If a
man can be found who does know;
who has the experience and ability to
stops leaks, he would be an invalu-
able man to the city of Caldwell.
If any material reduction IN taxes
is to made during the next few years
it must be made in reducing the cost
of municipal and county government.
The legislature has been in session
about 40 days. In his message to the
legislature Governor Haines recon-
mended that the session devote the
greater part of its time to ascertaining
and providing by law for such econo-
mics as are practical Up to the pres
ent time the legislature has shown no
disposition to either ascertain me-
thods of reducing the cost of govern
ment or of providing by law for any
real reduction. Even the measure to
do away with needless and endless
registration fell by the wayside. 1t
naturally follows that the taxpayers
of Idaho must look to their local Of
fcers for such relief as they will get.
One of the heaviest burdens the tax
payer has to carry is that of city gov
eminent. Any plan that promises re-
lief from this burden will meet with
the hearty approval of the people in
general. AS it is we'll known that
municipal government is too high;
that cities are wasteful and extrava-
giant under the present system; and
that somewhere there must be a
chance to save; it seems that every
body should be willing to try the plan
OF employing city manager. A man
who will devote all his time and at
tention to the study of the affairs of
a municipality, if he possesses mod
icum of intelligence is bound to dis
cover ways of saving money. 1t can
and is done in every other business in
the world and there is no reason why
it cannot be done in government.
The Tribune is highly gratifed to
find so many persons are giving our
suggestion consideration. People who
really think have arrived at the con-
clusion that the present system must
be changed. They have not been able
to find any serious fault with the
manager Idea. A number of the pres
ent city officials are in thorough
sympathy with the idea and hope to
see it adopted.
