IDAHo's claim for admission to State
hood is now squarely before Congress, and
the debate upon it has opened. Simpli-
fed, the issue is this: shall Idaho be ad-
mitted with Constitution disfranchisipg
Mormons? The polygamists oppose the
Constitution and the admission of the
Territory. The homogeneous Mormons
are content to have the State come in as
proposed, trusting to the abandonment of
polygamy by the church. If that is not
done, then they will leave the church and
regain their political standing. With the
Abandonment of polygamy, say the friends
OF Statehood, the power of the church as
a political concern, which it now is, will
depart. The right policy, therefore, for
Congress, is to admit the Territory with
the Constitution disfranchising Mormons
and recognizing them as political outlaws,
since that is the surest way of dealing
polygamy death-blow This is the
argument that has been made to Congress.
and there is such strength in it that we
are free to confess friendship for the Con-
stitution. Certainly, if Idaho is, in all
other respects, fitted for Statehood, and
the disfranchisement of the Mormons will
break the power of the church in tempo
raj affairs, then it is the part of wisdom to
erect the State under the Constitution it
offers.

THE committee of Kentucky legislators
to which was referred the anti-lottery
bills, referred to at length recently in the
REcoRD-UNI0N, has reported in favor of
repeating the charters of all lotteries and
the passage of the bills to forbid any lot
teries 10 the State or the sale of lottery
tickets. This is a movement that is inevi-
table in any community that for any
considerable time experiments with
licensing lottery gaming. The leople
who have advocated the amendment OF
the Constitution of California so as to per-
init the licensing of lotteries ought to be
able to draw wisdom from the experience
of Kentucky ana Louisiana.

IN view of past utterances the remarks
OF the Atlanta Constitution upon the pro-
posed negro exodus, which we quote, oc-
casion surprise. 1t says:
Where the blacks are needed to develop the
country IL IS safe to say that they will be well
treated. The two races have shown in the past
Thr 19at tihey a can get along very well together
Inere IS no reason why they should be fenced
on nom each other in separate States.
Then, ii the blacks are needed in the
South to develop the country and furnish
it with labor element, why has there
arisen such contention concerning them as
has stirred the country for twenty wears
and more? For it viii be observed that
the Atlanta paper does not suggest any po-
Htical trouble from the common dwelling
of blacks and whites in the same State.
Evidently, however, the Constitution
means that the two races can get along to-
gether well enough so long as the black
consents to be politically subservient to
the white. However, We are agreed with
our Georgia contemporary that the two race
cln live inthe same State in amity, and
and that there is no reason as yet why a
new State should be erected for the occu-
patton by the blacks exclusively The
observance of the letter and the spirit of
the law enfranchising the negro, whether
wise law or not, and the withdrawal of all
repressive policies, will enable the test to
be made fairly and safely whether the
negro aud the Caucasian can live in
the same State on political equality,
and upon the justice of the Ameri-
can people both can place implicit reli-
ance that the ultimate policy to be adopted

Yesterdays Sale Quite Satisfactory to All
Concerned.
The cattle sale held yesterday afternoon
at Agricultural Park by the Pacific Coast
Short horn Breeders Association was not
largely attended, and the prices realized
for the stock were not as good as had been
expected. About forty head were auc.
toned Oft, and there were not many that
brought over 500. The largest price paid
was $50, for a young COW.
Following are few of the sales made:
Manuga Duke, to Peter Peterson, of
Sites, Colusa county; 1925.
Viscount, a. Heilbrons bull, to F,
Staugger; 1925.
Peterson's Hualapa, to H. G. Coupe
Sl20.
Marydon's Scottish King to P. S. Chiles;
$40.
Considering the severe winter Just past
the sale was deemed successful one. The
Association has concluded to hold another
during the State Fair this year. Many OF
the purchasers expressed satisfaction with
the manner adopted of bringing purchasers
and sellers together, and it is believed that
the conduct of this sale will tend to create
confidence in the minds of future pur-
chasers, who win look forward with inter
est to ike sales to come.

THE late President Barnard put great
question in a nutshell by this statement.
which is quoted from a recent paper OF
his published in the Forum;
History has painfully demonstrated that the
corruption involved in the original distribution
of Office is insignificant and trivial, contrasted
with that infinitely larger corruption when
has grown on; OF the prostitution of Office itself
to merceuary ENDS.
any successful denial can be made. The
reason for the fact is that Office is largely
sought "lor the emolument it brings
rather than for the honor it confers.
Whoever takes it for the purpose of using
it to his gain prostitutes it, and corrupts
all who come in contact with the methods
employed for that end.

IT Is reported that the result of smoke

IT is reported that the result of smoke
less powder sham battle near Paris this
week was to demonstrate an error in the
French infantry uniform. As conse
quence, the red trousers, gilt belt, bright
helmet ana gold cord are to ego" In the
battle four regiments were engaged, and a
full battery. There was not a particle of
smoke, and therefore there was no oppor-
tunity for the support of one part of the
army by another under cover of the smoke
of the artillery. So, too, it was found i'm
possible to locate ambushed troops. A
regiment could lie in cover of wood or
tnicket and pepper exposed troops with
out the latter being able to tell from what
spot the assault was made. The red trou-
sers OF the infantrymen, the brass helmets
OF the cuirassiers, their metal breast plates
and the gaudy trappings of ornamentation
were splendid targets, and the men thus
distinguished were SO conspicuous that if
marksmen could have had the making of
iuf@ah Val SCtS tiey Coula uOI nave devised
better ones. The commanding officers at
once came to the conclusion that the
uniform of the French troops must be re-
formed, and the attractive colors aban-
doned. 1t is probable that the sober blue
of the American infantry troops will be
adopted, or the somber gray, which may
be better still, or even the dark green of
the Swiss riflemen The result of the
French experiment will probably lead
England to abandon the red coats of her
troops, and substitute safer color. Origi-
nally red was adopted as the color most
likely to inspire the soldier. 1t is the
color OF warmth and life In art it is the
color of passion, and because it is believed
TO awaken the animal in man more than
any other color, it was adopted in a fight
ing costume. But science, by the pro-
duction of the smokeless powder, has
probably put the seal of condemnation
upon scarlet and vermillion and all red
tints in uniforms for the field, and like
wise the glittering brass, the polished he'll
met, the shining buckle and cuirass will
have to give place to less conspicuous ma
terials.

If it is true that the Bartholdi Statue
of Liberty is in danger from the steady
sinking of Bedloe's island, steps should be
taken at once for the removal of the heroic

American people permitted this noble
present from the French republic to fall
in ruins for want of timely preparation to

EMIN PAsHA has agreed to enter the
German-African service, and viii return to
the equatorial region in couple of weeks.
As scientist and an explorer, Emin will
prove invaluable, but the impression has
gained ground that his administrative
abilities have been crippled, and that he is
not now the man to have charge ofan exec
utive arm of service that calls for great
and wise discretion. The persistency with
which Emin refused to come out of his
dangerous position in the Egyptian prov
inces of the upper Nile has had the effect
of shaking confidence in his ability to
act with discretion-courage he has in

CRUMBLING WALLS,

CoIiapseS.
SEATTLE, April 3d.-This morniugthe
guests at the Los Angeles House, on
Washington street, We're awakened by the
breaking Of walls, the falling of plaster and
frightened shouts. Those who had retiged
rushed from their rooms with Just what
clothes they could lay their hands on and
fled TO the street.,
On investigation it was found that there
was an approach to disastrous calamity.
The appearance of the building indicated
that the foundation under its center had
given way. All of the rooms of the lodg-
ing house were more of less knocked out
of shape, the plaster had cracked and
fallen off, and the doors was SO settled
down that in some cases the frightened oc-
cupants OF the rooms could not get esress
until they had received assistance irom
the Hook and Ladder Company.
The house contained about thirty-fve
rooms, all OF which were occupied. 1t was
a three-story affair, and was erected at
cost of about S23, goo, and has been deemed
unsafe, owing to its loose construction. 1t
is probably total loss.

An Object Lesson.

When in the House of Representatives a
few days ago. soon after the assembling
of the body, Massachusetts, Republican
moved that the House adjourn, Mr.. Speak
or REED did not know at first what to do
with the motion. II a Democrat had made
II the Speaker would have refused to enter
tain il on the ground that it was dilatOry
motion. But what was he to do when that
motion came from o Republican. and a
Massachusetts, Republican at that? The
Speaker hesitated moment. but soon de-
termined to recognize the Massachusetts,
Republican, thus plainly showing that the
rule allowing the Speaker to decide
when O motion is dilatory one
Is nothing in the world but partisan rule
which empowers the Speaker to refuse to
entertain any motion made by Democrat
and TO entertain the same motion if made
by Republican. Mr.. SMITH appeals from
decision OF the Speaker. The Speaker
entertains the appeal. Why? Because Mr..
Smith is Republican. Mr.. BRowN tries
TO appeal from decision of the Speaker.
The Speaker refuses to entertain the APP
peal. Why? Because Mr.. Brown is De-
mocrat. This Is the feast to which the re-
representatives. of the people are invited 10y
the malignant. mean, sectional Republi-
cans. Whe trust and believe that they
vill repent Of this crime before the pres
emit Congress adjourns.
