OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Thursday, Jan. 19,
If
as
or
- 1905
It pays tobe fair even in bidding
for county printing.
Staff correspondents and a grape
vine press Bervice doesn't necessar
ily make a popular newspaper.
Idaho connty has never been
robbed of one cent through county
printing but she certainly has a
bargain in that line this year.
The Free Press may not make
much money out of the county
printing but there is no one to
whom we would rather give a
handsome present than the good
people of Idaho county.
The Standard suggested last fall
that George RohertBon should pay
taxes on the treasurer's office be
cause he had held it for eight years.
The Free Press has been the offic
ial county paper a good deal longer
than that and we presume we are
subject to the same criticism.
With Senator Dietrich indicted
for selling postmasterships; Senator
Burton indicted for receiving mon
eys from a corporation to secure
certain legislation; and Senator
Mitchell indicted for laud frauds
against the federal government, the
republican press have found it con
venient to drop the discusssion
as to the honesty of democrats in
office.—Exchange.
The action of the Standard in
omitting the commissioners pro
ceedings and legal notices in its
bed for the connty printing, in
hopes that it wonld be overlooked
and they conld then charge legal
rates, was an attempt at deception
not commendable aud shows ignor
ance rather than shrewdness,
course the commissioners are not
printers, neither are they fools, and
they could hardly be expected to
overlook such a course piece of
jobbery.

The supreme court of Nebraska
has decided that the law granting
a bounty to the manufacturers of
beet sugar is unconstitutional—
and is in line with the decisions of
the courts of other states which
have attempted to furnish state
aid for private enterprises. Ap
propriations for such purposes are
usually put through a legislature
by trading combinations that have
for their object the "looting of the
treasury.
such laws are usually nullified
when an interested taxpayer sees
fit to protect himself by invoking
the aid of the courts. With legis
latures composed of organized
schemers it is only by an appeal to
the courts that popular rights can
be preserved.

It is fortunate that
Says the Philadelphia Record:
"It is a destressing indication of
the venality of our politics that iu
a single yeat three members of
what we are used to call the most
august legislative body iu the world
should have become defendants in
criminal proceedings on the charges
of having made merchandise of
their positions and influence. One
of them has been exonerated by a
Senatorial committee of inquiry,
another has appealed from the
judgment and sentence delivered,
while the third has just been called
to answer au indictment,
senators, like Caesar's wife, ought
to be above suspicion; and that
cannot be said of anybody whose
conduct is questionable enough to
become the basis of a criminal in
formation or the presentment of a
grand jury."

The State of Idaho could almost

ing the north and south part of the
state.
traveled by legislators and state
officials in going to and from the
Capital, and which must be paid
by the state, is almost startling in
its'enormity. Representative Timm
of this county, is allowed over 1400
mil« travel pay, and many of the
representatives exceed 1000. Every
guard from the penitentiary or
asylum with the men in their
charge must also travel a great
distance that would be avoided if
we had a north and south road and,
on the whole, it is doubtful if
ouough money is not Bpent in this
The immense distance
Any action
taken by the legislature to encour
age the construction of a road,
we believe, would meet with the
approval of the entire state, even
though it meant a reasonably lhrge
appropriation.
The air is full of peace congresses
these days, and as most everybody
likes to talk when given a good
chance, no particular harm is being
done. Under present conditions,
with millions upon millions of dol
lars that are being spent upon the
armies and navies of the world,
peace talk is simply idle. It misses
the root of the whole question.
Every nation that can raise the
necessary money to maintain a fair
sized army and navy has a chip
upon its shoulder, and boaBts of
the fact. Germany is going at it
headlong with her war- parading
emperor, and England periodically
gets into a fever of excitement for
fear one of her many enemies will
blow her little island into the sea,
and she orders a host of battleships.
If the world insists upon a big
army or a big navy to "insure
peace" and for protection, the
United States must uot only join
the procession, but take the lead
as far as an efficient navy is con
cerned. The necessity for such a
course, however, is to be greatly
deplored. Let us not talk peace,
then. It would perhaps be more
expedient and effective for Presi
dent Roosevelt to suggest to Eng
land, Germany, France, Russia
and Japan that an agreement be
entered into between the nations
not to build during the next twenty
or thirty years any new ships of
war or to increase the number of
men in the army of each nation.
What the civilized world ought to
stop is this headlong waste of vast
sums for great armies and navies,
which, in the east, will leave the
nations of the world in practically
the same relative positions that
the occupy today. If this money
could he used for some practical
purpose, what a wonderful impetus
could he given to art, science and
literature, and to those euternal
improvements which are one of the
chief factors in making a nation
great and prosperous. — Pacific

"We think this is agood move."
The foregoing line is catching
our eye so frequently in Idaho
republican papers wo were led to
further investigate, and learned
that it referred to the following:
From an exchange we learned
that Senator Stewart has intro
duced a hill into the senate increas
ing the salary of the president of
the United Stales from *50,000 to
8100.000 per annum, that of vice
president and the speaker of the
house from 88,000 to *20,000 per
annum and the salaries of the sen
ators, representatives and delegates
from 85,000 to 810,000.
The same journal thought it was
a good move to raise state salaries
825.000 per term—aud the people
of the state thought it was a good
move, and endorsed it by re-elect
ing those who made the raise,
is possible the idea of a national
raise was suggested by the eager
ness with which men who "can
hardly pay their taxes" rushed to
the ballot box to endorse the 825,
000 raise in state salaries. Poor
people all over the nation will no
doubt think the president needs
a raise and express their sentiments
on that with the same generous
spirit as upon the Idaho precedent.
To tell the truth, there is no better
method to cure ourselves of becom
ing arrogant or acquiring the super
cilious air of wealth than to attach
such royal perquisites to high office
that the common run of us will be
in no danger of being burdened
with any surplus over living ex
penses. Kings, Czars and Emper
ors get much more than the 8100,
000 which it is proposed to pay the
president—aud they don't have to
wait for congressional action either
—but just tax it out of the people
by monarchist power.— Weiser Sig

No More Stomach Trouble.
All stomach trouble is removed
by the use of Kodal Dyspepsia
Cure. It gives the stomach perfect
rest by digesting what you eat
without the stomach's aid. The
food builds up the body, the rest
restores the stomach to health.
You don't have to diet yourself
when taking Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
J. D. Erskine, of Allenville, Mich,
says: "I suffered with heartburn
aud stomach trouble for some time.
My sister-in-law has had the same
trouble and was not able to eat for
six weeks. She lived entirely on
warm water. After taking two
bottles of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure
she was entirely cured. She
now eats heartily and is in good
health. 1 am glad to say Kodol
gave me instant relief." Sold by

Tonic to the System.
For liver trouble and constipa
tion there is nothing better than
than DeWitt's Liitle Early Risers,
the famous little pills. They do
not weaken the stomach. Their
action upon the system is mild,
pleasant and harmless. Bob Moore
of LaFayette, Ind., says: "No
use talking, DeWitt's Little Early
Risers do their work. All other
pills I have used gripe and make
me sick in the stomach and never
cured me. DeWitt's Little Early
Risers proved to be the long Bought
relief. They are simply perfect."
Persons traveling find Little Risers
the most reliable remedy to
carry with them. Sold by all
druggists.

Readers of "The Smart Set' ' hare
learned to look upon the complete
novel that appears in each isene of
that magazine as the biggest event
of the month in fiction; bnt even
the most enthusiastic reader will
be happily surprised by the story
of the February number. Beyond
a doubt "The Eavesdroppers," by
Arthur Stringer, will prove one of
the sensations of the year. The
story deals with the careers of two
daring criminals — a man and a
woman—whose astonishing adven
tures the reader follows with
breathless interest. From the very
opening sentence the tale becomes
one of rapid and exciting incident,
and, moreover, it is written with
that literary distinction which al
ways characterizes Mr. Stringer's
work. Different as "The Eaves
droppers" is from such fiction as
"In the Bishop's Carriage" and
"Raffles," it combines all the in
terest of those stories with a move-"
ment and intensity entirely its own.
It is a notable achievement for the
author, and will prove a notable
novelette in The Smart Set's long
list of successful Btories.
