OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER.
Thursday, March 9,
1905
The eighth legislature is a thing
of the past aud what it accom
plished has become history, but of
this we may rest assured, that if
half the good things promissed last
fall by the dominant party be re
alized we shall all, for the next
two years, reap the golden harvest
of prosperity and wallow in
the elephantine affluence while
we dine gloriously on the fat of the
land.
In spite of all this benign bene
ficence, however, we are constrain
ed to note an ominous silence
among our republican campaign
organs on several topics that were
freely discussed lees than six
months ago. Did the eighth legisla
ture endeavor to afford any relief
from high taxes? Not so, but on the
contrary it bound the republican
party irrevocably to the policy of
high taxation and the administra
tion is now stretching forth its
suppliant lands beseeching the
dear people to grant it more power
to wring pennies from their dear
pocket books. Last fall democrat
ic leaders told us that a serious
evil existed in Idaho in the form
of poligamy, a fact which republi
can leaders denied, but the repub
lican legislature spent much of its
time and energy trying to remedy
this same evil which upon good re
publican authority did not exist—
consistency thou art a jewel I"
The bounty of a dollar aud a half
on coyote scalps was repealed.
That is tax-reduction, but fifteen
dollars apiece for each and every
pair of cougar ears is reduction
ascending. For the republican
party to wage a war of extermina
tion against the cougar, may be
just the thing to bring peace of
mind to tbe wealthy, and pros
perity to the poor, but many
of our people are from Missouri
and they will have to be showed.
But we do feel sure that some
■ good has been done by the eighth
session and we are especially sen
sible of the fact that a few new of
fices were created whereby remun
erative berths can be found for
some of the old veteran bunco
masters who are just now out of a
job.

I 4
At a recent banquet in Wash
ington President Roosevelt pro
posed a toast to Senator Cockrell
and intimated that he would not
be necessarily bound by party dur
ing his next term,
been bound in that manuer during
the time he has been president,
and it is one of the features of his
public career that the people like.
When he has been able to get a
better public servant by appointing
a democrat than could be secured
from the list of available republi
cans, he has not hesitated to do so.
He has ofiered a place to Cockrell,
and everybody agrees he did right.
Nevertheless, some small-calibre
people are seeking to stir up senti
ment against tha president because
of the remark made at the ban
quet.—Ex.
He has not
ted today but it is a pleasure to ( j
note that they are becoming thor
oughly aroused in the matter. In
nearly every, newspaper the ques
tion is being discussed aud the leg
islature has passed are solution to
amend the constitution whereby
the state might aid in the construc
tion of the road. Numerous plans
have been suggested but as yet none
bave assumed definite shape. But

It is only a month until the city
election but as yet there is no in
terest publicaliy expressed in the
event.
Our city has been very
fortunate in the matter of her
oifiniais and it behooves our citi
zens to see that this condition con
dition continues. We are growing
rapidly and each year questions
arise that require not only sound
judgment but broad minded, liber
al consideration. There is no room
for rings or factious but all should
harmoniously unite in selecting of
ficers who will continue the pro
gressive policy of tbe present ad
ministration and not attempt to
saddle some hobby on the city at
the people's expense.
The question of a north and
sooth railroad through Idaho is
one of the most important in which
tbe people of the state are i uteres

Dr. Osier, herethfore an eminent
college professor, has stated that a
man has attended the zenith of his
existence at forty years of age, and
when arriving at sixty the men
should be chloroformed. As Dr. is
50 years of age and has just arriv
ed at this conclusion, it may be
wise not to take him too seriously
as lie is rapidly nearing the age
when he says chloroforming should
take place.
Our republican contemporaries
are not saying much lately about
experting the county records. Won
der if they are afraid to for fear
the job, like the county printing,
might be let to a democrat?
The Beattie Times announces
that hereafter it will support re
publican policies. A great many
people can easily smother their
honest convictions in order to be
on the side of the majority.
Compulsory Vaccination.
The enlightened old Htate of
Massachusetts has a compulsory
vaccination bill. It was enacted
by the Bay State legislature a few
years ago, and recently it was
tested in the supreme court of the
United States. An anti-vaccina
tionist— for there are such even in
the enlightened state of Massa
chusetts—thought his personal
rights were being interferred with
when, during a smallpox epidemic,
a police physician insisted upon
vaccinating him.
The highest tribunal in the land
says the citizen was wrong; that
his personal liberty was not in
terferred with within the meaning
of the constitution. The court
held, further, that the law was
justified because it afforded the op
portunity for the exercise of police
power inprotecting the health of a
community. The importance of
the decision is difficult to over
estimate. It paves the way for
compulsory vaccination laws in
every state where the people are
alive to the necessity for such
statutes.
Heretofore many states have
been reluctant about compelliug
vaccination on the theory that to
compel it would be an invasion of
the constitutional guarantee of per
sonal freedom. These doubts are
swept away by the Bupreme court
of the United States, in an opinion
concurred in by every one of the
distinguished justices.—Butte Mi

a
To Stop Peddling
Through the efforts of the
merchants the legislature has en
acted a law placing the license for
peddlers so high that it will be
practically prohibitive. The prin
cipal sections of the bill are as fol
lows:
"Section 1. The term peddler
for the purpose of this act shall be
construed to include all persons,
both principals aud agents, who go
from place to place and house to
house, carrying for sale or offering
for sale or exposing for sale, goods,
wares or merchandise: Provided,
That noihiug in this act shall ap
ply to peddlers in agriculture farm
products.
"Section 2. Every peddler who
shall sell or offer for sale or expose
for sale at public or private sale,
any goods, wares or merchandise
without a county license issued as
hereinafter provided, shall be pun
ished by imprisonment for not less
than thirty days or more than
ninety days, or by fine of not less
than $50, or more than $200, or by
both.
"Section 3. Every peddler,
whether principal or agent, shall,
before commencing business in any
couuty of the state, make applica
tion in writing and under oath to
the county treasurer for the county
to ( j n which he proposes to make sales,
In
to
to
at
is
for a county license. Such ap
plication must state the names and
residences of the owners or parties
in whose interest said business is
conducted, and shall state the
number of horses and vehicles
used by him, and at tbe same time
file a true statement tinder oath of
the quantity and value of the
stock of g'iods, wares and merch
andise that is in the county for
sale or to be kept or exposed for
sale in said county, and shall at
X
the same time make special deposit
of $500 with the county treasurer
aforesaid, and shall pay the said
treasurer the county license fee as
follows:
"1—Peddler on foot, $100.
"2—Peddler with one horse and
wagon, $150.
"3—Peddler with two horses
and wagon, $250.
"4—Peddler with any other con
veyance, 1300.
The law will be greatly appreci
ated, especially by the merchants,
who have had to compete with all
kinds of peddlers that flood the
country with worthless goods and
against whom the purchaser has
no recourse.
