WHEN the Turnerites got the latest is
sue oi the Spangle Record they tore their
hair and sent messenger post-haste
down to Spangle to see what had come
over the editor. They had reason to in
dulge in great expectations regarding
the utterances of that sheet, because
they had sent a man down there to do
the writing, and TO whoop things up
generally for the judge. And so there
was disappointment and rage when the
mails brought in the first paper
printed under the Turner regime,
containing the following remarkable con.
fession, which is certainly frank to bru.
tality; "The partisan newspaper must

simplicity, are truly refreshing in this
day of deception and masked motives
but they are tough on the judge.

WHY will SO many people persist in
searching among dying and dead civil.
cations for wonders in medicine and
truths in religion2 Why do thousands
of otherwise intelligent citizens pin their
faith to so-called Indian remedies, and
why are Chinese ply ysicians sought out
and patronized by credulous invalids ?
The Chinese entertain the crudcst and
most absurd ideas about the anatomy of
tho human body, while the Indians are
ignorant and superstitious and their
medicine men are absolutely powerless
to check epidemics. And so in re-
ligion. Theosophic Buddhism, the faith
OF a dying civilization. has several thou
sand followers in the United States. pco-
pie who lose sight of the fact that the
highest type of eligion must be sought
among the highest types of civilization.
There must be fads, 1t seems, in all
things, fads in med in dress and re-
lilion, and so long as the cranks employ
themselves in mild crazes like The
osophic Buddhism, and their misdi-
rected energy Is turned in no more dan
perouS channels, the best policy Is to
leave them alone with their folly and
trust to time to wear out their enthusi-
asni and start them anew in another
direction.

DEMooRAric platforms are as "varia-
BILE as the shade by tho light, quiv'ring
aspen made" Two years ago they
raked the republican party fore and aft
because the treasury had handsome
surplus. "Turn the millions loose"
they shrieked, 'and let the money pass
into the channels of commerce" Now
that republican administration and
congress have been restored to power,
the democratic platforms are indignant
because the treasury has been depleted.
Clearly the republican party can not
hope to please the democratic poll
ticians. They will have to go on en-
deavoring to do their duty and please
the American people.

FAIR RICH IDAHO.
The Republican Candidate for
Idahos Congressman in
the City.
Judge Willis Sweet Is Non Com.
INITIAL on the Senatorial
Outlook.

Judge Willis Sweet, the republic
can candidate for congress, was in
the city Monday. He was on his
way to Osburn, where he Is holding
court, having just come from Boise
City. Seen by a REVIEW reporter
and interviewed in regard to Idaho
politics, he said:
II have nothing to say I'm regard
to the senatorial fight beyond my
belief that Northern Idaho will be
represented.
"Thc state is sure to go republi-
can, and 1 am confident of being
elected. ! do not think that the
democrats even hope to carry the
state. All their energies will be
centered on the legislature, and /
am told they claim to be able to
carry the entire Mormon vote.
"Idaho is a great state" contin-
ued thejudge his eye kindling with
enthusiasm by recollection of the
varied and rich resources of the Gem
Of the Mountains. "Besides the
rich mines both of gold and silver,
there are 5000, 900 acres of rich farm
ing land in the Snake river valley
that is capable of producing tre-
mendous crops Ii given water. We
have the water, too, and plenty of

ment to give the land to the state, so
that n private company can handle
it. 1t is a simple business PROPOSE
ton. Land that could be bought for
IL an acre, by being irrigated would
easily bring $40 an acre; and there Is
plenty of money ready To embark in
the enterprise, II it is only given an
opportunity"
That was about all the Judge had
to say, beyond the fact that he be-
LEVIED every man in idaho was so

Men who lived In Oregon during

troublesome Indian wars, says the
Oregon Statesman, do not put much

to have fought in the Malheur River
Indian war In 1854, assisting in the
capture of forty-two women after
what he terms the Malheur mnssa-
Gre. Indian war veterans here say
that there was no Malheur River
massacre in 1854 or any other year,
and that there were no forty-two
women captured or recaptured at
that time. There were not so many

THE condition ol the administration of the Territory at the present time would serve as q text for very inter estfng sermon. Perhaps one o. the most eontemptible characteristics in man is ingrAtitude. It is one of the daggers which cuts deeper into the soul of man who is the recipient of it's stabs than perhaps any o her offensive weapon. The ingratitude of man Is perhaps more lorcibly illustrated in the case of the Governor ard his for mer friends than by any instance of recent date. Having placed in posi- tions of trust men whom he had known in private life, his conclusion was that in public life they would be at least honest and sleadiast in their bearing toward him; but the spectacle now presented proves that he was wrong. Another instance before us is the cese of George Christ, who wen, to Washington to secure an appoint ment as collector for the district O! Arizona. No sooner was his back turned than those who had secured subordinate offices through his 'nfiu enee and recommendation, signed q petition against his appointment and subsequent confirmation. The ingrat' is the neanest work of God, and tn, Lord has been liberal in his supply tC Arizona.

A DrOp in the Market,

With the plethora of fat cattle now
coming in, as a result of bountiful
supplies of water and grass, there
comes a weakening of the market
from an over supply and a drop in
prices. 1t does look as if the stock
men were never going to find state
of affairs entire satisfactory. 1t is
either too dry or too wet, or too much
fat cattle or not enough, and the mean
between them is scarcely discover
able, so sudden may be the transition.
Prices for cows have dropped as much
as a dollar and live beef from 1925 to
Sl.75 per hundred.
The northward shipments still con-
tinue, and this drop principally af-
fects the local market. Dealers COM
plain that the export trade of beef
cattle TO towns in Northern Texas,
once so renumerative, has fallen of
and generally they are not pleased
with the outlook.

counties of Kentucky and some of the
more southern counties were swept
last night by terrific storm. The
heat all day was oppressive in the ex-
IRENE and number of pros
trations were reported. About 6
o'clock the southern skies be-
came very suddenly overcast with
blue black cloud of ominous appear
ance and the play of the ligh thing
and crash of thunder were appalling.
Reports from Mount Sterling, Paris,
Lexington, Maysville, Nicholasvi lie,
Cynthiana, Corinth and other points
are to the effect that a dangerous
storm ragged. At Nicholasville thcus-
ands of dollars of damage was done.
In Harrison county the tobacco crop
is almost entirely ruined and the
loss will reach great sum. At Guy
andotte, w. Va, the road leading to
the ferry was washed away, together
with portion of the front streets and
dozen buildings.

In the Times report of IastSu2day's

statement that Mr.. Werner moved
that the Times be thanked for the

Either the Times reporter was sold

some fond hopes of vote OF thanks
failed to materialize. Unless the

Mr.. Werner never mentioned the
