COUNTY division is becom-
ing the chief topic in southern
kootenai. St. Maries is push
ing the issue, stimulated bv
bright dreams Of a county
seat and the glory and dignity
and power that would be hers
as the center. of local self
government. But St. Maries
cannot succeed alone. Plum
Met and Harrison must be
persuaded and won over.
those towns do not seem to
be disposed to aid their ambi-
tious sister gratuitously and
their citizens meetings have
evidently developed the senti-
ment that county division is
not wan.ed by them, but that
it they must have county
division they want division
into three, SO that Plummer,
as well as St. Maries, may
get a county seat. That is
the situation now, and SO long
as the people of the proposed
one new county are disunited
the prospects for an early
division of Kootenai are not
PROMISING.

that the battle still ragged and that he
expected to achieve a complete
Victory.
In the preliminary attack on Com.

week ago, Villa was momentarily
repulsed. but renewed the assault the
succeeding days with desperate vigor,
finally securing foothold among the
adobe houses of Torreon. An Ameri.

Villas army escaped north on March
80 and reported that the rebels, or

selves, had, up to that time, lost 1000

THE Reputation Of seventy.
five million dollars of indebt.
edness by nine Of the south
ern states, while disgrace to
the nation, brings forcibly to
mind the whole subject of the
public debts of the world.
Those debts are growing
everyyear. They have doubled
IN the last forty years-new
debts piling up on the old and
Title or no effort being made
to pay them off. Where is it
all going to end? Will all
those debts eventually be re-
Pudiated? The tendency of
the times to spend more and
yet more of borrowed money
for better highways, grander
public works and costlier and
mightier ornaments, will
some day lead to the bank
ruPtcy Of all the nations.
Recklessly continuing to
mortgage the future can have
no other result. No debt can
continue to grow indefinitely
without leading the debtorl
toward financial ruin. If the
nations ever hope to pay all
their present obligations there
must come a time some day
when all these great debts
will cease to grow, and the
only way to bring about such
a day is to borrow less and
less and finally to stop entire
y tor a time the system Of
ssuing bonds and floating
|oans. It is the only way to /
escape bankruptcy or the dis
reputation OF
financial obligations, Will it
CAN'T be done?
