terry to seek the high position he de-
bauched and, by deliberate misrepre-

enough unthinking and forgetful vot-

The people of Shoshone county are
confronted with a situation CORE

have been in control of county govern

Once upon a time Idaho elected a
governor who promised to save a mil

ed by our citizens that
At the end of the reign Of Moses,
many creditors of Idaho were loud in
their vain demands for recompensa-
ton, in lieu of articles and services
rendered; state institutions were on
the verge of acute starvation and col
lapse as the result of lack of financial
support: members of the old Second
Idaho, headquarters company band
and medical detachment were station
ed all summer of 1917 at Boise with
out pay: the insurance money collect
ed from the fire of two state institu-
tons was placed in general fund and
spent; chaos from the standpoint of
the state head reigned supreme, even
at the state house, where repairs and
a thorough cleaning to the extent of
$4,000 on the capitol building were
found imperative upon the entrance of
the Davis administration on January
!, 1919
The democrats Of Idaho have select

this coming election.

Within the past five years motor
touring has developed into a feature
of American life, and the motor tour
list has become a conspicuous figure in
the social system, one to be recogniz-

Automobile as a Public Utility" fror
which the following is taken:
Individual owners of trucks
hauled freight by the ton over the
highways built at public expense,
until at the present time we are
building highways with the gem
eral tax money, II per cent of
which comes from the railroads as
a separate class of property. We
are paralleling the railroad rights
of way with the finest paved roads
in America. These roads are now
being tied up by exclusive fran
chise to bus companies which OPP
crate at regular intervals between
termini under statutory regula-
ton under what is known as the
certificate of necessity act.
Washington is losing in taxa
ton thousands of dollars each
year by reason of the constant re-
duction of value of railroad prop
erty. This can be met by the i'm
position Of q franchise tax upon
the gross earnings of auto trans
portatiOn companies both freight
and passenger. as additional com
pensation for the exclusive privi-
lege of using these rights of way
1t is estimated that in 1920, a year
when business was only in its in
fancy the bus business produced
two million dollars Of gross rev.

volume of earnings would produce
a revenue of 100000 annually"

TRUCKS AND BUSES MUST HELP
PAY FOR GOOD ROADS.

The expenditure of vast sums rails
ed by general taxation for the con-
struction and maintenance of good
roads has developed a question re-
specting future expenditures which
must be met by every state. While
constructed for the convenience and
Accommodation of all the people, the
fact is that the costly roads are being
commercialized by freight trucks and
buses to an extent that as a matter Of
justice to the taxpayers some plan
must be devised by which the people
who use the road for profit must be
compelled to contribute a proportion
ate share of the upkeep. These We
hicles compete direct with the rail-
roads and deprive them of a large
amount of business. and yet the rail-
roads are taxed to provide facilities
for their own destructive competition,
NAAAAI AAI u 1IANo anu IAAnCNo pay bAH@-
tically nothing for the facilities they
enjoy Another feature that interests
the general taxpayer is that the loss
Of business by the railroads results in
Of its property and there
by reduces the amount Of taxes COM
ing in from that source. We must
have the railroads and we must have
good roads. so the problem is to de-
wise a plan by which those who use
the roads for profit and add most to
the expense OF maintenance will be
to pay fair proportion Of
the cost of upkeep and offset to some
,xtent the reduced taxes paid by the
'ailroads. This question is discussed !
In a recent report by the tax investi-
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1922-10-05

During the year taxes for school,
highway and drainage districts show
ed an increase of s1,OsS. 226.56 over
l192O, while taxes for state purposes
show a decrease of s2Ss,71S.S6 and for
county purposes a decrease of s277.-
2OI2S.
1t will be observed that the revenue
here referred to is practically all rails
ed by tax levies self-imposed by the
people and wholly outside the power
of the state administration to in
crease or diminish
OF course some of this money goes
to pay the expense Of state govern
ment for the support of state institu-
tions and other state purposes, and
evidently it is here that Mr. Alexan-
der will have to make good his prom
Use to reduce taxes by cutting the ex-
penses OF government in half out of
every dollar in taxes paid last year by
the people Of Idaho, just AS cents
was taken to pay the cost of state gov
ernment and for all other purposes
the state received $40 cents from each
dollar. The remaining S615 cents
went to the various counties, school
districts, road districts. etc. 1t will be
seen therefore that Mr. Alexanders
cut Of so per cent in the cost of state
government would mean only half of
AS cents or 2.225 cents out of every
tax dollar. OF course he could not do
it and keep the machinery of state
government moving under the cabinet
or any other system. But suppose he
did make the cut; suppose he went
further and cut off every appropria-
ton for state institutions, including
the university, normal schools. indus
trial school, penitentiary insane asy-
lums, etc; gave his own services as
governor for nothing along with free
Of all other state officials, in
GLIDING the supreme and district court
judges, he would cut off just 1886
cents from every dollar of taxes paid
by the people of Idaho.
1t is upon such absurd and willfuuy
false representations that Moses Alex
lnder hopes to reenter the state house
as governor, and no thinking voter
should be deceived by them. His for
ner administration left a heavy def
lit for the republicans to make good, |
rs well as to restore the credit of the !
state, which had been strained to the
point by Alexander.

ALEXANDER AND HIS FALSE
ECONOMY TALK.


In his speech in this city Moses
Alexander. democratic candidate for
governor, had much TO say regarding
high taxes and by implication at least
claimed that they were due to the
adoption of the cabinet form of gov
eminent" but he was careful rot to
quote complete figures for that would
have completely refuted his assertion.
He said if elected he would cut the
cost of state government in half and
the applause which greeted the state
ment indicated that there were a few
at least who took the speaker serious
ly For the benefit of those ana 9TH
ers who may be misled by the demo
cratic nominee. few figures are pre-
serted which show the utter absurd
ity or AIexander's claims regarding
the cost of state government These
figures were compiled in the state
bureau of finance and may be verified
by any one who may question them
by the official records in the state
house. In 1921 the total amount of
taxes collected from the people of
Idaho was S21.176.29154. To this was
added revenue derived from other
sources, amounting to S2,719OO474,
making grand total of S2S SOS, 2962S
expended for all purposes on behalf
of the people of Idaho during the year.
How was this money raised and for
what purposes?
Almost two-thirds, or approxim-
ately S15,OOO,OOO, was levied by cities
and villages and by special taxes lev /
led by school, highway and drainage /
districts. most of which had been au-
thorized by vote of the people who /
paid the tax and without any connec-
ton whatever with the state admins
tratioon.
Education and highway construc-
ton. which Mr.. Alexander himself
says must be maintained. represent a
large portion of the expenditures last
year. For education the amount was
ss.412.5O6.5O, while highway expendi-
lures amounted to s1,se2.S2zs6, of
which the state paid s4s4.2ss.55.

DO NOT UNDER ESTIMATE THE
IMPORTANCE OF ELECTION.

Because this is an "off year." that
is, there is no presidential election,
and the campaign is progressing in an
unusually quiet manner, voters should
not be misled into the belief that the
questions involved in the campaign
are unimpOrtant and that their well
fare and prosperity is not directly at
stake. Republicans should bear in
mind that While we have a republican
president for the next two years, he
would be rendered practically power
less to carry out republican policies if
the democrats should gain control of
congress in the approaching election.
Considering the difficulties confront
ing the republicans upon taking over
control OF the government hardly two
years ago. the results accomplished
toward bringing order out of demo-
cratic chaos and restoring the busi-
ness of the country to a normal con-
dition have been among the most re-
markable achievements in the history
Of our country. In spite of democratic
opposition, President Harding and a
republican congress have worked in
harmony to solve the difficult and in
tricate problems left them as a legacy
by the Wilson administration. AL
though much has been accomplished,
the task is far from being completed.

ADDISON SMITH AND HIS NEW
COMMITTEE GUARDIANSHIP.

Addison T. Smith, of Twin Falls,
representative in congress from the
second district, has found that even in
accepting well earned promotion
ones motives may be brought into
question in a manner that will at least
provide passing fun for his colleagues
in congress. Mr.. Smith has long been
chairman of the committee on alco-
holic liquor traffic. high and honor
able position and with the duties of
which he is in earnest sympathy. But
in the shifting of committee assign
ments it so happened that Mr.. Smith
was in line for the craftsmanship of a
more important committee and one
which would permit him to be of more
practical service to the western states,
for the reclamation of arid lands is a
matter in which he is deeply concern
ed and in which he has already ac-
complished great results. AS he could
not hold two chairmanships. Mr.. Smith
gave up the first and has accepted the
craftsmanship of the second. And now
some of his good friends in congress,
particularly those who would like to
see the Volstead law modified in favor
of light wines and beer, profess to see
in Mr.. Smiths change of chairman
ships also a change in his position on
the prohibition question. The story Is
told in this paragraph by the Wash
ington correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Public Ledger:
Representative Addison T.
Smith, of Idaho, is not exactly
what one would denominate a rip
roaring progressive. as he has
been a conservative in republican
politics. Yet he is about to change
committee assignments in the
house in a manner that reveals
clearly he believes in keeping
abreast of the times He is to
relinquish the craftsmanship of the
committee on alcoholic liquor traf-
fic to assume the Craftsmanship of
the committee on irrigation of ar
id lands. House members are
having a lot of fun with him
about the change"

These facts prove beyond doubt
that in the near future there will be
great competition in the purchase Of
silver. In the future the ruinous COM
petition of the sale of silver will be
avoided. Such a condition is bound to
carry the price of silver above "a dollar
an ounce. It may be within one year
it may require two years. but in any
event it is almost certain that the
price of silver will go above 81 an
ounce before the fund for the purchase
Of American produced silver under the
Pittman act is exhausted
IT this takes place. then the gov
eminent will cease to buy silver when
it goes above 81 an ounce, and the
fund will remain on hand as a con-
slant assurance and guaranty to meet
any emergency at any time to protect
American produced silver at 81 an
ounce"
