a GREAT many newspapers in and
outside of Idaho do not understand
our Senatorial situation, especially as
regards the two short terms, which
will be drawn for by Shoup and Nc
ConnelI. Dubois was elected for the
full term, six years, so this term does
not maddle matters. The election of
Senators was proceeded with and car
ried out in accordance with the
views Of Senators Edmunds, Hoar,
Stewart and others. 1t is understood
that Mcconnell and Shoup will draw
for terms-one of which expires on
March Sd next. The drawing is first
for this short term. The one who
draws the blank draws again, there
being two more unexpired terms, one
ending March 3, 1893, and the other
March 3, 1895. If he draws the slip
with the former date his term will be
for two years, and if the latter, for
four years. So we will have Sena-
tor for six years, his term beginning
on the fourth Of next March, another
for the term expiring on the Sd OF
next March, and the third for either
two or four years, his term beginning
on the fourth of next March. II
would seem to be better plan tc
have but one drawing, the two Sena
tors to draw for the two months tern
and the four years term, and the one
getting the four years terra woulc
then also fill the two years. term
which he will do, however, if he i
lucky in the second drawing. If not
he gets but two years.

1t would appear, from the codes of
people for whom no divine revela-
ton IS claimed by us, that man by
his una;ded efforts has come to the
knowledge of the best principles and
practices of morality, has not only
made admirable rules of conduct, but
has perceived that the essence of
goodness lies in the character of the
soul. Ii this be so, it is unnecessary
to suppose supernatural divine rev.
elatlon to account for tho ethical
phenomena of society. 1t might be
said, indeed, that all this ethical de-
veleprnent proceeds from primitive
divine revelation. But this state
ment rests on no historical proof, nor
would 1t explain the fact that the
ethical progress of a nation goes
hand in hand with its growth III civil
lzation. If the ancient Hebrews re-
ceived their ethical code directly from
God, whence comes it that manners
were milder in Ezra's time than in
the pre-exlllan prophetic period, less
mild in the days of David, and com
paratively rude in the period of the
judges? 1t would be singular if the
generations which stood nearest the
revelation were least affected by it
