Alexander's claim is,
therefore, pure buncom-
be to the extent of S $50, $1,000

In Enthusiastically ridiculous attempt
to make it appear that he has made
good on his campaign promises, Gov
ernor Alexander is out with a signed
statement in which he makes the abb
sured claim that he has reduced the
expenses of state government in the
sum Of $l,l35,7l6.34.
In reaching this conclusion the gov
ernor has not hesitated to resort to
any method of arranging his figures
and making his computations, regard
less of the facts involved or of the
intrinsic honesty of the claims ad-
vanced.
He has included issues for perma-
nent Improvements which will not be
paid for 20 years with appropriations
made tor current expenses, and has
called the total current expenses
he has taken the sum total of the
appropriations made during the adj
ministration of his predecessor, add
ing thereto the bond issues authorized,
and has regarded the resulting total
as the cost of state government dur
ing such administration, without be-
ing fair enough to deduct therefrom
the sum of $l28,4l888 appropriated
but unexpended and left in the treas
ury at the close of the administration.
He has added to the sum total of
appropriations made for the admins
tration of his predecessor the amount
of Carey Act funds expended, not
withstanding the fact that much of
this was appropriated by the 1egisla-
ture and was, therefore. previously in
cluded in the sum total of appropria-
tons.
He has attempted to convey wholly
false and misleading impression with
reference to the ad valorem tax of
not to exceed" $l,500,000 imposed by
the legislature. In this connection he
represents himself as appealing to the
legislature to reduce this sum and of
finally being forced to the alternative
of signing the bill or calling an extra
session of the legislature. He studi-
ously avoids referring to the fact that
the legislature did not levy a tax of
81 100000 but tax of mot to exceed
that amount" and that it was left as |.
it always has been, to the state board |
of equalization to fix the sum which
should be actually raised, after the
amount realized from indirect taxes
should become known.
He incorrectly states that he would

of equalization to save the taxpayers
from an excessive levy and attempts
to lay the basis of claim of success
in this. matter later on, nothwithstand-
ing the fact that the board will be
doing only what the law intended it
to do.
AS a matter Of fact his whole CON
tention is based upon such false and
misleading premises that it would
seem almost unnecessary to reply
thereto but for the benefit of Review
readers who are not in position to
know the facts this paper is willing
to show just what the Governor has
actually accomplished along the line
in question.
In the first place it should be re-
called that his promise was not to
save a million dollars" (any COVER
nor if allowed to do his own calucula-
ting could make sub a showing as
thaO, but to reduce the cost of state
government by that sum. In making
| this promise broadcast over the state
he was always careful to state that
none of this saving was to be made at
the expense of the educational insti-
tutions which he believed in support
ing literally, and he gave the i'm
preston, as he intended at the time
to do, that the saving was to be made
in the cost of running the State
House"
Obviously the cost of running the
state government" for the biennium
of l9l3-l9l4 does not include the |
principal of bond issues made in that |
biennium but which will not be paid |
for perhaps 20 years. Obviously also, |
this item does not include the unex-
pended balances of appropriations
made for that biennium, amounting
to $l28,4l8.99; nor does it include the
100000 made for the Panama-Pacific
Exposition, approximately half of
which will be spent during the pres
ent year; nor should it include $500
appropriated for a silver service for
the battleship idaho" which was
contracted for during the administra-
ton of Governor Hawley.
Deduct these items from the sum
total of $2,404, 28o60. appropriated
during the biennium of 19l3-1ol4, and
there is left as the cost of conducting
the state government in that biennium
the sum of 81, 168 1902.
In computing the cost of state gov
eminent Governor Alexander includes ;

1t will thus be seen that giving
Governor Alexander full credit for
saving every cent of this difference
of $l46,085.24 and denying any credit
whatever to the legislature he is still
$853,9l4.76 short in his promise of
million dollar reduction.
If now Idaho holds Governor Alex
ander to a showing of saving where it
was promised, a still more glaring dis
crepancy appears. Under the admin
istration of Governor Haines. there
was appropriated for educational in
situations the sum of 723,448.65.
Under the Alexander regime this
amount has been reduced to $601,-
$4,000 which shows. that of the actual
reduction of $l46,0S5.48 in the cost of
government, as shown above, every
thing included, $l22,04465 was made
at the expense of the educational in

submit answers to questions asked by
Barney Rogers, 1851 Ogden av., in
The Day Book Of Feb. %. Socialists
want capitalists such as yourself to
understand the A. B. C. of the doc
trine of Socialism before attempting
to combat it by arguments which
have no bearing on the subject.
Socialists realize that the laboring
class is responsible for the perpetual
ton Of the capitalistie system. Meth
eF capitilistic nor laboring class are
wholly responsible for the existence
OF the capitaHstic system. It is de-
velOpment in economic evolution
which has served it's purpose and
should be ended quickly.
You cannot control your being
born to wealthy parents. You are an
accident of the system, the same as
the tramp or the ignorant yokel. So
cialists do not ask you to share your
money with them. They ask that
the working class receive as their Just
due the economic value of their labor.
They object to dividing with you
giving the capitalistic class more than
half Of the product Of labor.

taEism is obliged to conform to the

though he knows that the system is
officially wrong.
Please bear in mind that Socialism
would give to aIl-capitalist or labor

tive ownership and operation Of the
means Of production and distribution.
No one would suffer loss. The cap
italist would lose nothing under So

Late cable advlces of Russian pro-

Austria was negotiating to end the
war.
Absence Of any important new eX-
port demand for wheat attracted con-
siderable notice in view of the ac-
knowledged shortage across the At
lantic.
Corn eased off with wheat and as
result of improved weather condi-
lions, most of the trade was between
pit spectators,
Oats were relatively firm, owing To
seaboard buying of the May delivery.
In addition there were cash sales
here of 800, 600 bushels, chiefly for
