CHRISTOPHER TALKS ON
THE REDUCTION OF
SALARIES

On page nine OF this issue of The
Tribune will be found a short article
taken from the Emmett Examiner
which deals with the salaries of the
county officers of Canyon and Adams
counties. Mr.. A. o. Christopher
affection was called to the article in
question. He has written the Elk
aminer showing the exact saving a
reduction in salaries would amount
to. He has also given The Tribune
the following statement of facts that
the taxpayer may rightly be informed
of the amount of money that might be
saved to the taxpayer in case the
canyon county salaries were reduced
Mr.. Christopher says:
Kermit me to say at the outset,
that | have no desire to defend the
Board of County Commissioners in
their action relative to determining
salaries. Such course on my part
could be construed as selfish. The
facts are that | advised the Board as
tar as | was concerned, that salaries
should be reduced. AS you know, the
salary of the Assessor was reduced.
DO you believe taxes were reduced
thereby Granting that Canyon
county salaries had been reduced to
same figures as those of Adams, there
by saving $4,000, say 100000 for
conVience, then what would the tax
payers who paid $4,000 in taxes save
in the City of Caldwell?
He would save SO cents.
Below | give figures from the of
hcial record, by which the results may
be received.

the state constitution; whether or
not the law is antagonistic to the
constitution of the United States: and
whether or not the construction
placed upon certain features Of the
law by the commission is correct.
One of the cases in point, and the
other identical in purpose, arose be-
tween the Idaho Power & Light Co.,
and the Great Shoshone & Twin Falls
Power Co, when the former attempt
ed to enter the Twin Falls field for
the purpose of furnishing that com
munity with electric power. April %,
1918. Twin Falls granted the Idaho
Power & Light Co., a franchise to
operate arpower system in that city.
By order of the public utilities COM
mission the Idaho Power & Light Co.,
was shut out of Twin Falls for the
reason. that its competitor was al
ready in the field and fully equipped
to serve the people of community.
From these orders the Idaho Power
& Light Company appealed to the
Supreme Court. incidentally it was
argued that theplaintiffs rights under
franchises granted, became contract
bAbAhS OF
United States, before the public utili-
ties law, went into effect. However,
the real points as issue are the con-
stitutionality of the public utilities
law and the powers of the commits
sion.
The course adopted by the state
commission in effect allotting to pow
er companies certain territory has
provoked severe criticism. 1t is clear
that the people of Idaho never in
tended to invest any commission with
such powers. However, the legis-
lature may have done this and incid-
entally stepped beyond constitutional
limits. The questions at issue were
bound to arise sooner or later and it
is well that they are coming up at
this time.

Brady is not Persistent.

In a dark, gloomy and mysterious
editorial the import of which we dc
not fully understand, the Pocatello
Tribune objects to the statement made
by us to the effect that Senator
Brady's plans call for a candidate for
the Republican nomination for COVER
nor from the southeast. We may have
been mistaken. Such things frequent
ly happen to us. However, the par
ticular friends Of Senator Brady, viz:
the Pocatello Tribune, the American
Falls Press, Senator d. w. Davis
State Game Warden 0. H. Barber and
the Capital News, not to mention Col
Ferguson, have left no stone unturn-
ed in an effort to discredit Governor
Haines. They have sprung num-
Der OF candidates from the southeast.
Mr., Davis went to Chicago for the
purpose of consulting with Senator
Brady concerning the nomination.
Immediately afterwards Judge Stew
ems became a candidate. Far be it
from The Tribune to even intimate
that Senator Brady had anything to
do with the candidacy of Judge Stew
ems, but the Pocatello paper must ad-
NIT that il looks suspicious How
ever to appease our contemporary, we
revise our statement: Senator Brady's
plan calls for candidate from some
other section of the state other than
the southeast.
In discussing the Senator's plans
the Pocatello paper says: I'VE haven't
any intimation of that sort here, and
the sudden change of 'front.' brother,
on the part of VOur excellent Aditor;a |
pagerwe should dislike to attribute to
the circumstance of dinky $2,400 APP
pointment."
The Tribune is unaware that there
has been any change of front on the
part of our editorial page. We re-
spectfully ask the Pocatello Tribune
to point out 'wharin" there has been
any such change, So far as we are
concious The Caldwell Tribune is

and narrow path it has followed for
twenty years or more,

Aotal ...........S $1,000
You will readily see that the par.
ticular fund in the above that could
be effected by any saving of salaries
is the Current Expense Fund to which
this particular property contributed
WV. The total valuation of the
County for 1913 is $2o,082,8S4 and
the Current Expense Fund levy is SO
cents on every $4,000 of valuation
In round numbers, therefore, we rails
ed 100000 for Current Expense
purposes. If 100000 could have
have been saved in this fund, the tax
payer in question would have. saved
4-a of $7.42 or SO cents.
Now, do you believe the Board
of Canyon County Commissioners
would have acted wisely had they put
Canyon on par with Adams?
The point | raise is not to object
to reduction of salaries, but that such
action, even when carried to an ex-
IRENE, would give practically no re-
lief. l believe sincerely, that all ex-
penditures should be as low as pos
sible. The taxpayer in question has
right to ask your authorities in
Caldwell how they can reduce amy
item of the $6o.ol paid for local pur-
poses. Any person who studies this
question at all must realize that the
local tax burden is the heaviest and
relief must necessarily come from that
source
Kindly examine the following
facts:

In the above do not give the
ices of any officer except those of
Auditor and Recorder. Please note
that the fees in that one Office alone
in Canyon County, more than pays
for all the officers salaries.
rs it not apparent that the Can
yon county officials have more work
and more responsibility than do the
Adams county officials? You will
observe that to effect saving of SO
cents, put the two counties on a
par.
THE question as to what is the pro
per salary, shall not discuss. The
board has taken action, and shall
offer no criticism. The salary of my
office was reduced and l am glad it
was.
Taxes will never be less until cur
tailment of all expenses are made. The
taxpayers have right to demand re-
duction of taxes. Let salaries be re-
iuced in whatever sum is just to all
concerned. but l trust you see very
clearly that your city and schools
should in some manner eontrive to
demand less than 1921 in direct
axes on the above named property.
Il trust you may be willing to give
he tax problem all the publicity it
demands to the end that some solu,
ion may be reached. The tax ques-
ion from the academic standpoint is
lery simple. 1t is simply to spend

Denver.-The Department of Agri-

tion OF a serious disease which is af-

sheep and the mountain goats and is
reported as existing on the Lemhi
National Forest in Idaho. The forest
officers think that 1t is the same dis
ease that caused the mountain sheep
to die in great numbers during 1882
1888. The nature of the disease is not
known, Though it results fatally and
sheep affected with it seem to have
rough and NANCY coats and are very
much emaciated. Three bureaus of
the department are engaged in the
study-the biological survey, bureau
Of animal industry, and the forest
