JANUARY 18, 1896.

THE ONLY CERTAIN ROAD TO PROS
PERITY: Bimetallism.
The Coeur d'Alene Press remarks
blandly that its comments on the su
preme court decision recently render
ed allowing sheriffs double mileage in
serving warrants and bringing prison
ers from place of arrest before a court
or committing magistrrte was not in
tended as a "slap" at the sheriff of
this county, and that the latter mis
understood its motive. The effect
this decision will have upon the earn
ings of a sheriff's office amounts to
very little, and if the Press really felt
so badly over what it is pleased to
call "legalized robbery" of the tax
payers, as it would have the latter be
lieve, it certainly would not have to
go far from its own office for excellent
grounds to work on. If a reduction
is to be made in the fees or mileage
of any county official let it be general
among all of them. It is most ridic
ulous for the Press to say that its
comments on this decision were un
biased. It might as well tell its read
ers that a man afflicted with the jaun
dice can tell one color from another,
or that its attacks on Governor Mc
Connell are prompted by any other
motive than personal hatred of that
official on the part of the Press editor.
The national democratic committee
in session at Washington, D. C., on
the 16th instant, named Chicago as
the place for holding the next demo
cratic national convention, and the
date July 7. The contest between
rival cities was extremely hot and it
required twenty-nine ballots to name
the place where the nominations are
to be made. New York was Chicago's
most formidable competitor for the
honors and was in the fleld"for blood.
'There was also a lively contest over
thè date of holding the convention,
some of the committee being desirous
of holding it on June 2, two weeks
before the republicans hold their con
vention.

The Utah legislature has selected
two men to represent that common
wealth in the United States senate,
Frank Cannon and Arthur Brown,
both republicans and the former, at
least, a strong bimetallist. Cannon's
election to the United States senate
seems ro give general satisfaction, be
ing an able man well qualified to fill
with credit to the state the honorable
position to which he has been elevated.
Browne is notso well liked and accord
ing to press comments was not the
choice of the people of Utah. But
Browne is also an able man and may
yet surprise them all.

The board of county commissioners
met?on Monday in regular session for
the transaction of general business, of
which there is quite a large amount
on hands. Under a recent decision of
the supreme court the board are not
allowed to employ legal counsel, and
are required to call upon the district
attorney whenever such advice is de
sired on any matter. Acting under
this decision among one of their first
acts at this meeting the board dis
pensed with the services of Judge
Keat.
The fellow ove r in Roisewho chew
ed a twenty-dollar bill to a pulp the
other day, probably settled the cur
rency question to his own satisfac
tion, but the chances are he himself
will die in a poor house or an insane
asylum. It exemplifies the old say
ing, "Whiskey in, wit out."—Ex.
England has substantially decided
to submit the Venezuelan dispute to
arbitration, and all war talk, or even
thought of an engagement between
this country and England has ceased.
Eugland need not be told on "which
side her bread is butter.

This is leap year, and if Canada,
Cuba, or any other of our weak sister
nations have anything to say this is
their opportunity.—Ex.
