NEW YoRL WORLD: One A. Victor
Guelph, alias the Duke Of Clarence by
grace of his grandmother. was sworn In
as member OF the British house Of
lords On Monday. Mr.. Guelph is a
young man of no particular consequence
80 far as ability or attainments are con-
cerned. He IS distinguished only for
his collars and is reputed to be rather
below than above the average Of edu-
Gated British youth. And yet grave
judges. reverend bishops and other
persons before whose scholarship and
personal worth young Guelph ought to
have been very modestly retiring, got
themselves up in their official clothes
for the occasion and made themselves
subordinate figures in. gold laced
pageant of subserviency to the little
princeling, quite as If he had been the
worthiest and greatest person in the
realm and they his humble servitors.
And such perversions of ideas, such
subordlnations Of worth to accidental
rank, are enforced by law and custom
in England in an age when shams are
falling into the waste basket of con-
tempt throughout Christendoml Think
of it. This commonplace young fellow
would take precedence of Gladstone,
Huxley. Tennyson and all the rest of
.England's really great men in any COM
pany in England, merely because he is
the descendant of a gross and IN many
instances an imbecile Hanoyerian family
of decayed kings. It is inconceivable
that English common sense shall long
endure this mediseyal mummery.

Debts of Gratitude.

It would perhaps be deemed unfair
and illiberai to assert that no Democrat
should be elected to seat in the Legis-
lature; besides, this is past praying for,
as they are morally certain to be there in
respectable numbers; but it is clear
enough to the comprehension OF all thar
the democrats cannot be safely entrusted
with the control of that body. Idaho
owes it as a debt Of gratitude to the Ma
tlonal republican party, to her own honor
and to the safety of her future interests
to send two able, tried and reliable re-
publicans to the United States Senate.
and this can only be done by electing a
republican NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..
Those democrats are liable to be
there on time, and they will pay
the debt of gratitude to whom it is
due-that is, to that sterling, in
corruptible association of men who
conquered Idaho from the Indians :;
who enforced law and order; who
found its mines and paid out hard
cash to develop them men like
Ben. Wilson, the democratic can
didate for Governor. These are the
sort of men to whom Idaho owes
it's gratitude, and to whom they
will pay it-not to the hord of
worthless politicians who have been
dwelling in the marble halls of
Washington for years, or in the
stone palaces of Boise City-stran-
gers to all its Understanding
forward only to their own selfish
objects and betooling their own po-
litical friends. How much gratitude
is due to the Federal brigade of
officeholderS who have undertaken
to run Idaho? There is a people
back of all these follies, who will
make themselves heard soon, how
ever much they are now ignored
and sneered at. Some of them will
be in the next legislature without
any patronage either from the
Statesman or the government. They
will go as freemen.

Close to a Panic.

The first effect of the passage of
the Mckinley tariff bill was to Gre
ate panic in the financial circles
Of the East, threatening values OF
every species of property, personal
and real, and including that peril,
sending down silver from $1.19 to
$1.14, with worse in sight, The
president and his cabinet have been
kept lively at work to avoid the
catastrophe which imperiled oil the
property of the nation. How 1t
will come out remains to be eeen.
We hope for the best. But this
matter suggests significant idea Of
the gambling methods with which
this government is now being car
ried on. Between $119 and $1.14
there are FIVE cents. That five cents
enters into the value of every mans
property, no matter what he owns
or claims. If property can be sent
up and down in this way within
seven days what becomes Of the
stability Of values. One is rich to-
day and poor tomorrow. He enters
into obligations, gives notes, mort
cages his homestead, surrounds
himself with financial perils of every
description, believing himself safe
and tomorrow everything is scat
tered to the wild winds of specula-
ton; speculation made and con-
trolled by gang of republican
congressional operators, who, under
the name of a protective tariff, de-
stroys everything reliable in the
business world, carrying distress
into million households. Perhaps
it is necessary that the American
people should be taught by sorry
lessons some truths about political
economy and thereby learn to dis
criminate between the true and the
false; between the clap-trap OF
demagogues and common sense.

The Mexican war Veterans.
The Cassia County Times is Fl

The Cassia County Times is fret
ting over remarks made about the
conduct Of the republican party in
reference to the Mexican war vet
Grams. It asks: 8 The republican
party didn't wait thirteen years
after the close of the civil war to do
something for its heroes, did it?"
It's heroes, indeed We had sup
posed the soldiers of the civil war
were their country's heroes-not
the heroes Of the republican party.
There were more democratic SOL
diers enlisted in the North in the
army than republicans. Stephen A.
Douglas was the cause of the enroll
ment of more men in the army of
the Union than any one man in the
United States. Turning from that
subject to the Mexican war soldiers,
they were shamefully treated. They
waited from 1847 to 1885 before
they were granted a paltry eight
dollars per month. Nearly all of
them were then dead, and received
nothing; neither they, their widows
nor their children. They fought as
CALAMITY for their country as the
soldiers of the civil war, but they
were ignored for generation. The
soldiers of what the Times is pleased
to call "the republican party" have
been literally rewarded, by in
creased pensions, doubled by grades
from time to time; but it was not
until 8 democratic house of repre-
sentatives forced the pension bill
through against violent, persistent
republican opposition in that body,
and gave to the brave old soldiers
of the Mexican war any recognition
whatever. Many of those veterans
cannot now obtain any advantage
of that paltry eight dollars. Their
witnesses are dead, or scattered over
the wide world-lost in the abyss OF
more than forty years. They have
at least the consolation of knowing
that they were their country's he
roes in their day, carrying their
country's flag gloriously over for
eign soil, long before there was
party 'to do something
for IT'S heroes"

MAYHEM at Home.

The Ceur d'Alene Miner opposes
the election of Mayhem on party
grounds, but says:
Yesterday prominent democratic can
didate and we'll known mine owner
made a wager on the election, the demo-
crat backing Mayhem for 800 and the
mine owner backing Sweet for the same
sum. In conversation with the democrat
afterward it was learned that he bases
his belief that Mayhem will be elected on
the supposition that he will carry Sho-
shone county. If he does this the demo.
Gratis consider his election inevitable.
There is no doubt that Mayhew's
strength in this county is what the dem
ocrats figured on when they nominated
him for congress. 1t is true that Judge
Mayhem is popular in this county, his
home. Personally he is liked by every
body, regardless of politics, aud for any
other Office his personal following would
be difficult to overcome.

How the Mormons Went.

The republican organ at the capt.
tal-the Statesman-puts in its last
grin over the Mormon business in
it's following reference to the Wy
oming election:
While the result is highly gratifying
and will cause general rejoicing through
out the nation, and while this victory is
especially acceptable to the West, every
rejecting, loyal citizen will regret, should
the ramor prove true, that the party was
indebted to the solid Mormon vote for
It's victory.

Clagett VS.. Thomas Jefferson.

Mr.. Clagett has been here and
gone, accompanied by his attend,
ant, O'Rouke. OF O'Rouke little
was expected, and therefore little
received and few disappointed. He,
like many others we're loud-mouthed
democrats while they were poor, but
when one morning by lucky spec
ulation, they woke up with fifty
thousand in their trousers pockets
they are seized with the immense
idea that they are aristocrats and
must be republicans. 1t is the old
story; wealth is too much for prin-
ciple of that size.
Mr.. Clagett is a smooth talker-
always was--and found many old
friends on Wood river, who gave
him hearty reception, for old-time
sake, and he made some new ones :;
but altogether he rather disap-
pointed many former admirers. He
scarcely reached the exalted stand
ard to which he had been advanced
az the Henry Clay of Idaho" The
fault lay not so much in the man
az in the subject. He talked against
the grain. When he referred to
Speaker Reed perhaps memory's
ghost brought up to his vision his
Old democratic father at Keokuk.
Iowa, where his printing office in
that city was raided by republican
mob in 1863, the office dismantled,
and the press thrown into the Mis-
slssippi river. Free speech is good
thing, but it depends upon who
uses it.
We imagine that Mr.. Clagett
made serious mistake when he
asraigned PresidentsJ Jefferson, Mad
ison and Munroe. He insulted
Americans. It is too late day for
any Idaho or other statesman, to do
that with any credi. to themselves.
Generations have been born and
died in America since they lived
and died after their immortal work
IN building up American institu-
tons, and establishing the bulwarks
Of liberty and equality on this con-
tinent; and it is remarkable that
an American citizen should be found
IN Idaho, at this late day, to now
attempt to assault them in their
honored graves.
This Idaho itself was bought by
Mr.. Jefferson from France. Every
ounce of silver and lead within it's
borders was bought by him from a
foreign country and made Ameri-
can. The ground upon which Mr..
Clagett stood when he denounced
Thomas Jefferson was made a part
of these United States by him.
Madison defended it on land and
sea, and Munroe fortified it by the
declaration Of the "Munroe doc
trine," which every party has ever
since made portion of their prin-
ciples, and which has become an
everlasting American principle on
the North and South American con-
tinent. For MIR. Clagett to attempt
to defame these mon before civil
1zed audience here was showing lit
tie respect for their intelligence or
patriotism. A man holding such
continents is not proper man to
represent . new. State in the U. 8.
Senate.

statehood got to do with this cleo

miners, admitting lead and silver

whether the commissioners of Lo-
gan county were authorized and
empowered to call an election for
the permanent county seat. G. l..
Waters and Arthur Brown appeared
for commissioners, and w. S.
Hampton in opposition. After a
patient hearing of all the points in
the case, the court decided that it
had no power TO interfere in the ac-
ton of the commissioners, and the
election will therefore be held in
accordance with the proclamation
published in the advertising col
umns Of the Herald.
