FAVoRs CONSOLIDATION.

The more the question of a merger of the two commercial organizations into one solid, compact body, into which there cannot enter any con flict, the more are the business men who now support both inclined to favor the proposal made by the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce that one or the other of the organi2a- tions be dropped and everybody join in the furtherance of the other.
 The business men realize they are paying probably $4O0 per month for an overhead expense" which is not practical.
 It is true that both by many mem bers of beth organizations. and by c. l.. Russ. who came to our city as an expert on such matters, the matter of the merger of the two had often been suggested, and that Mir. Russ did at one time some months ago, offer a written proposal along this line-but the merger in itself was in our opinion matter that should be inaugurated from either one or the other of the bodies. through its off cers, and when that step was taken by the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce, it was well received and is being literally favored.
 The question of who proposed the merger is nothing. The fact that the officers of the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce, after five months eXpe- rience. believes that one organization is sufficient, and ask the business men who pay the overhead expense to choose between, is so frank and fair that it is little wonder business men are appealed to in the matter
 The subject is not one for contro- versy except on the merit of the pro- posal as made by the Young Mems Chamber of Commerce. It 1t busi- nesslike to merge the organizations, and cut down the overhead expense, and all unite in the furtherance of everything for the advantage of Hot Springs under one flag? With that question answered favorably the de tail of the consolidation of the two would not be difficult to carry out.

ALL OUR FAULT.

An outcropplng of eensure ad dressed to those in authority because the superintendency of the Hot Springs reservation is going to most likely pass to other than a resident of Hot Springs, is not justified after a review of the fact.
 To begin with, whether that proves the best policy or not, the Interior Department has decreed that the office of superintendent and medical director, when finally disposed, shall be made one and the same.
 That means none other than a phy- sician can serve.
 Hot Springs would be more criti- cal, likely, over the naming of Hot Springs physician for the place, than 1t is now over having some other than a resident of the city get it.
 One physician, pr. Leonard R.. Ellis, was given the place, but there had not been a consolidation of the offices, and the proffer was refused. This physician may be complimented that his appointment was well re- ceiyed-for there are few physicians who could be named whose appoint ment would have the same consid- eration.
 If the people of Hot Springs stood together on public affairs we would control this place, as we would have control over many other affairs that probably would make for more peace and prosperity here. Therefore it is not proper that censure be raised against those who have tried to serve us as we would be served. but having found that impossible, have served us
 as best they could serve us.

eastern farmer looks into is, What are
the taxes? 2
IT am prepared to believe that Idaho
has been injured even more in the last
few years by extreme high taxes and
unreasonable interest and penalties on
delinquent taxes than 1t has by the
grating and fraud perpetrated by all
it's officials put together; and, If 1 am
correctly informed, this has been enor-
nous.
Il repeat that radical reforms along
this line must be brought about in some
way, and we cannot trust the old par
ties, since they have promised reform
so long, with conditions constantly
growing worse.
Cannot Be Worse.
Il appeal to the voters of Idaho, re-
CARELESS of party, let's try the Progress
sive party, once at least, and see what
we get, We cannot possibly make mat
ters worse than at present, and with
the program they offer we stand some
chance of lettering our condition.
our officials, all of them, are our
servants-not our masters. They are
hired and paid by the people and they
pledge themselves to carry out the
principles adopted in their party plat
forms. If they fail to carry out their
pledges, why not discharge them, thus
advertising them as unworthy SER
wants? l would go even farther than
that-if they were found guilty would
make it a penitentiary offense.
THE peoples rights have been tram
pied upon, and, as everyone is aware,
their money has been misappropriated.
A polite way to put it Is to call 1t graft
ing Stated in plain English, it Is
stealing and whoever is guilty of it
ought to go to the pen This obtain
ing of public money under false pre-
lenses will never be stopped until the
people all rise up and condemn such
doings and punish the offenders, In
stead of passing 1t by as a Joke.
Dishonesty in political affairs has
gone far enough, yes, too far, and ought
to be halted now and forever.
The Penalty 10 Wrong.
Another thing. Is per cent penalty is
wrong and unfair. would call atten-
ton to the we'll known fact that it falls
on people who cannot help themselves.
People who can possibly raise the
money to pay their taxes when due
will not let them run over and suffer a
penalty of even 10 per cent, to say
nothing of the burden that is now
thrust upon the helpless property own
er. The present procedure looks to me
like a case of wilfully taking a mans
home away from him. 1t Is inhuman
and Christian.
rs not the Republican party guilty
of enacting such law2
'Will you support that party in the
coming election and still claim to be
living up to the Golden Rule, namely
to do unto others as you would have
them do unto you? Is the present pro-
cedure just?
In the hope OF securing better laws
and lower taxes. the thoughts herein
expressed are respectfully submitted fol-
the consideration of yourself and the
general public. MILES KNAPP"

no longer. The party has become too
corrupt for me. l have therefore de-

say that your ideas don't accord with
mine as to the best methods for ac
comprising the reduction.
MY idea is that the people cannot

lhave Just been compelled to pay, The
present tax damages severely the whole
state and actually cripples our citizens,
financially.
I'VE must have IMMEDIATE relief
] speak from knowledge. I am in a po-
sition to know that il will be impossi-
BILE for many of our farmers to pay
another tax such as the last one and at
the same time keep up the high inter
est on the mortgages they have had to
give on their farms to meet tax pay
ments. And this situation is bound to
affect the merchants and all others,
When the farmer is losing money and
running behind the whole world must
suffer. Upon successful farming de-
ponds everything else, hence farming
must pay. No, Mr.. Stevens, your idea
of reducing taxes is decidedly too slow
a process. Taxes should be cut in half
Immediately, even though the salaries
of our officials have to, likewise be cut
in two. Then, in addition TO this, we
should do away with all officials and
expenses that can possibly be gotten
along without. We must give the farm
ers of Idaho a chance to recover from
the past enormous taxes and extortion-
ate interest rates Then, perhaps, there
will be some show to bleed them
again. At present, however, there is
no blood in our financial system and
TO attempt to bleed us longer at present
means our financial death.
Sale of State Lands.
You speak of settling up the state
by the sale of state lands, and in this
way reduce taxes. Well, will admit
that all farmers are not good finan-
ciers; nevertheless 1 think the chances
are very slim to sell a farmer land in
state where he cannot produce and
sell enough to pay his taxes, above his
living expenses and interest charges. !
