land and the interest received from
the state funds, giving an indirect in
come to the state of nearly two mil
lion dollars, within a few years that
ought to leave the state of Idaho with
out any taxes upon the people what
ever for state government. In order
TO do that it will be necessary to abol-
ish about half of the useless offices
that now ornament the state house
and which have no moral or legal
right of existence. For instance,
there is the public utilities commits
sion, composed of Mr. Ramstedt, Mr..
Blomdulst and Mr.. Standrod, having
an appropriation OF sixty thousand
dollars for two years. There is the
tax commission, composed of the
same gentlemen, Messrs. Ramstedt,
Blomquist and Standrod, having TWEEN
ty thousand dollars appropriation for
two years, making eighty thousand
dollars for two commissions, and one
set of men drawing both.
Il might enumerate dozens of other
examples, but to give you an idea of
how the machine works, the last legis-
lature did not know what else to
create, and having a lot of men who
wanted Jobs, so they created the office
of bee Inspector and fixed his
salary at $4,000 for two years, Just
as If the people had not been stung
enough in the past. The capitol
building, which had an appropriation
of $4,000 for two years, spent all of
it in sixteen months, and, according
to the Idaho Daily Statesman, there
is just 81 cents left to run the state
house for the next eight months, with
winter staring us in the face and no
coal on hand. Any schoolboy with
any mathematical knowledge could
have figured out that there are TWEEN
ty-four months in two years and
could have divided that $4,000 by "a
and could have found out how much
money to spend from month to month.
THE best example of our extrava-
gance may be cited as follows: That
in 1901 the direct levy for state taxes
by Governor Hunt was 100000 for
two years; under Governor Morrison,
in 1903, $550,o0O; under Governor
Gooding's first term, 100000; under
Gooding's second term, 100000;
under Brady's administration, $1,000
900; under the present state admins
tration, $4,000, 900, making II the
highest tax levy ever made in the
state of Idaho. And the present adj
ministration promised us lower taxes
and requested us to take our tax re-
ceipts to the polls with us. Taking
the increase in the indirect taxes and
income of the state. the present state
administration has in INV opinion
spent over six hundred thousand dol
lars more for two wears Of IT'S Axist-
ence than was spent by anv other ad-
ministration in the state OF Idaho:
and that makes me feel that nv cleo
ton is certain. as both Republicans
and Democrats are looking for a
change. and no longer are willing to
bear under the most intolerable con.
ditions of an incompetent administra
ton. whose pledges to the people
have been violated SO flagrantlv.
''The Republican platform demands
a reduction of taxation: the doing
away with the unnecessary boards
but still indorses the present admins
tration. How thew can indorse a

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
SMALLEST OF YEAR.
Business on the Stock Exchange al
 Low Ebb Yesterday.

New York, Feb. 24.-Transactions in stocks today were the smallest of the year. From opening to close quota tions of the important stocks barely varied. Resumption of business after 8 week-e end recess is expected ordina- rily to bring at least temporary activi- ty, owing to the accumulation of or ders. but today, after a double holiday. commission brokers were empty hand ed. London cabled lower prices for some members of the international group and placed a few selling orders here at the opening. principally in steel. Bear traders made eXperim mental short sales, and prices dropped slight ly at the opening. but the demand was sufficient to prevent a substantial de- cline and the market came to a halt before any important concessions were made among the important stocks Some of the low priced shares deVel oped weakness, but the representative issues were held virtually on a dead level.
 In the railroad list stocks of the Gould group were heaviest. Both Is sues of Wabash and of Denver and Rio Grande stocks reached the years s low figures, and Missouri Pacific was heavy. Rock Island common and pre- ferTed touched new low levels. Weak ness also appeared in several indus trials which recently have moved wide ly, including Railway Steel Spring and Mexican Petroleum.
 Professional operators were bearish, but, lacking new material to work up on, they were unable successfully to oppose the present tendency of the market to drift along idly while await ing decisive developments in Mexico or elsewhere. The unruffied attitude of the British government in the face of the Benton affair in Mexico deprived the bears of 8 weapon which they used with some small success on Saturday, and Mexican affairs ceased, for the moment, to be a factor in Wall street Lehigh Valley, the first important rail- road to make it's February report showed 8 decrease of S4o3 DUO in net revenue. This report was offset by the fortnightly statement of idle freight cars, showing further decrease in surplus equipment
 The bond market moved irregulsrly. Total sales, par value. s2,675,000 United States bonds unchanged on call.
