than those where the banks issuing the
notes are located. We think this an un-
necessary interference with the ability OF
State bank notes to perform their most
useful functions; still, as the great OBJ
iect of the measure is TO unlock private
credit and enable men TO make free use
Of their assets In domestic transactions,
We would gladly compromise on getting
the tax taken off SO long as the notes re-
main al home. but to be imposed IL they
stray away.
II would be interesting TO know whether

EDITORIAL COMMENTS.

New York Times: There was an agree
ment In the Senate yesterday between
Messrs. Harris and Aldrich that extra
ordinary methods OF pressing the tarin
bill should not be acted upon before
Monday. This means simply that Mr..
Harris cannot command a quorum in
support of his aggressive tactics. Ii does
not at all indicate that a majority can
not be had for the tariff bill. There
are a certain number OF Democratic sem
ators whose dignity would be offended
and whose leisurely, not to say lazy, hab-
its interfered with by giving more time
daily TO the disposition OF the tariff. These
gentlemen, in the relative isolation OF
Washington, are insensible to the wishes
and needs OF the people, who In every
quarter of the Union demand prompt ac-
ton by Congress. They will not be moved
until the voice Of the business COM
munity is so loudly raised as TO pene-
trate their sleepy ears.
New York Sun: There is neither
reason nor pretext for handing TO them
the sad gift Of political rights" This is
the opinion In reference 10 women held
by citizen no less mature and distin-
guished than Jules Simon. VIII women
heed the warning voice against their
quest OF the sad gift of political rights ?"
We fear not Like the king in the
Earthly Paradise who insisted on the
nymph giving him her love- although she
assured him ii would lead 10 his sor-
row. the women are bent on going into
politics When they get there in spite
Of the pessimistic NJ. Simon. may they,
and likewise we. be as happy as We are
now.
New York World: A careful reading OF
Senator Hills speech will convince those
who know him that ii is simply a bluff
When 1t was first written IL was intended
as the prelude 10 an announcement that
he would vote against the Wilson bill.
Otherwise 1t is grotesque. To suppose
that its raspng criticisms and bold
threats were originally intended TO lead
up TO It's present lame and impotent con-
clusion is to credit Mr.. Hill with the
same sort OF performance as that of the
fakir who beats his drum furiously as a
preliminary TO passing the hat
Senator Hill began his speech with the
intention or raising the black flag against
the tariff bill. But his courage failed
him. His hedging statement at the close
that he reserves the further expression
OF his views until the end OF the debate
means that he will sit on the fence and
let events decide which side he will get
down on. If enough Democratic senators
are duped by his stage thunder. or by
Mr.. Germans specIous conservatism"
20 divide pp the responsibility OF defeat
ing the bill, he will go with them. Other
wise he will fall meekly into line. There
is no likelihood OF his leading a forlorn
hope.

sHoUP's ASPIRATIONS.

The Washington correspondent of the
New York Sun sends the FOLLOWING
item of interest to that paper: aSena'
tor ShOup Of Idaho is said to be the
latest victim to the letter writing habit
Some time ago, according to the state
ment OF one OF his associates, in An I'M
lucky moment he: wrote a letter to a
personal and political friend in Idaho.
saying that he would not be a can.

very popular in Idaho, as he is in Wash

quite surprise to his constituents. "a
they had supposed that everything had
been arranged for electing him to a
second term. One of the men. uron
whom the letter made deep impress
sion was Representative Willis Sweet.
who took advantage of it to bring him
self into the field for Senator. Shortly
after Mr.. Sweets ambitions were m ade
known, Senator Shoup was lea to
change hts mind and to come TO the
opinion that he had been q little hasGy.
and that he would like to be a Senator
again. Mr.. Sweets candidacy has pro.
crossed so far, however, that Senator

OFF AND ON for several weeks the
Payette Independent and The TRIB-
UNE have been enjoying little friendly
quarrels for the pleasure and edifica-
ton of paid up subscribers, always end
ing with an apology on one side or the
other. Last SATURDAY. the Independent
offered a very graceful apology for
something We had said, or it had said,
it makes no difference which,, and we
hasten to acknowledge it. There will
never be anything serious between the
Independent and THE TRIBUNE, be-
cause at the head Of the Independent

pect to meet in this world Of woe and
contention. Some times the Indepe1l-
dent looks at thing in one way bat
The TRIBUNE regards it in another
light and then there is clash. But
the belligerents soon exhaust their
wrath and the next you know they are
eating Strawberries together as chum-

CONFESSION.

How many are there in Idaho, today,
who will candidly admit that their
judgment with respect to tho Coxeyites
was shamefully defective? There is a
noticeable disposition to hedge on the
question. We are all willing to criti-
cize and even abuse our memories but
none of us care to confess unsound
Judgment. TIE TRIBUNE feels the
humilitiOn common to mankind, but,
at the same time, honesty compels us
to admit that our sentimentality played
3 sorry trick on our understanding.
The last few weeks have radically
changed the tenor of our ideas and
thoroughly convinced us of two things:
First, that the CoxEY movement was
mainly an uprising of useless, shiftless
buns with just sufficient sprinkling
of semi-respectability to deceive tender
hearted and weak minded people. Sec
ond, that the Government of the
United States is pretty stable affairs,
after all, and that it is going to take
pretty sizeable mob to cause any ap-
probable tremor in the structure. The
thought comes up that, perhaps after
al, we of the west are little wild and
unreliable. A little excitement makes
us all alare up and put on war paint.
We make a terrible noise and confus-
ion among ourselves and begin to think
that zoe are the people. But when
you come to count noses. there is
mighty little to US. Every last inhab-
liant of this state could be dumped in
to New York city without making
visible impression on the population of
that city; every man, woman and
child in Canyon county could be lost
in the crowd that frequently gathers on
the steps of the Capitol at Washing
ton. If it wasn't for the power and re-
Verberating quality of the, western yell
we would be small potatoes and mighty
few to the hill.

for introducing this innovation, why
did not Messrs. SHoUP, DUBOIS and
SWEET have the courtesy to present
Them Answer this plain question. Is
not the whole Republican party of this
state thrown into the humiliating con-
dition Of being compelled to find justi-
fication for what the leaders want them
to do? Every man must torture his
brain to find an argument to support q
proposition which he knows nothing
about. Why should the Republicans of
Idaho feel called on to do this thing ?
Would it not be more manly, more hon
orable in Republicans to serve notice
on gentlemen in Washington that sug-
gestions from them respecting local po-
litical affairs would receive respectful
consideration only. when accompanied
by sound reasons. On the other side,
how much more manly and honorable
it had been in our congressional dele
CATION to have indicated to the Repub-
licans of Idaho that they would not in
terfere in local affairs. How much
better had been the Republican feeling
in Idaho today if our congressional
delegation had sent a message some
thing like the following to the state
committee: "Gentlemen, having full
faith and confidence in the wisdom
and zeal of the Republicans of Idaho,
We feel to congratulate you on the
opening of what promises to be an i'm
portant and successful. campaign, In
order to put at rest any suspicion as to
disposition on our part, to in any
wise interfere in local politics we de-
sire to say that as servants of the peo-
pie of Idaho our whole time and atten-
ton shall be occupied. We have al
ready been honored by the Republicans
beyond our expectations and perhaps
beyond our deserts, therefore whatso-
ever 1t pleases them to do with US in
future will meet our hearty approval"
Wouldn't every man in this state have
thought q great deal more of .Messrs.
SHoUP, DUBOIS and SWEET if they had
sent a message like that, instead of tel
egraphing q scheme?. If it were done
hastily and thoughtlessly, our delegs-
ton In congress, ought to recall it. 1t
was bad business and if it be forced
through the convention it, will be re-
pudiated at the polls.

A BAD BUSINESS.

Have you ever noticed that politicians
after injecting something into party
politics that causes disseution are al
ways the first to cry for peace and har-
mony. A case in point is this senatorial
proposition. Who was it that sprang il
on;the Republican party? Was it the
people? Oh, no. But now that it has
precipitated q storm which the politi.
clans ear not control. we find them ap-
pealing for harmony The way to get
harmonysis to. withdraw tho cause of
the disturbances. But politicians will
not do that. They insist on having
peace on their owu,terms. We all know
that Republican matters were going on
smoothly, the party was strengthening
and implying and the prospects of sue.
ceeding were peculiarly bright, until a
few men tried to work the whole or
ganization. for their own benefit. There
the manhood Of the. people rebslled.
They felt shat their loyalty andiszeal
was being imposed on; they real
lied that an attempt was being made
to manipulate them and they de-
termined not to stand it. If this bust
ness should ultimately cause the de-
fsat,of the party In this state. who is
responsible. for it: Politicians will try
to make it appear that those who op-
posed their scheme are. blameable.
Bait We ak Republicans, in all candor
and fairness, If that be true?. Is it he
who throws the firebrand in, or he who
attempts, to throw it out that is re-,
sponsihle afor eonfagration. Politi-
clans will say that had their ideas been
permitted 10 prevail without question.
oroppositioH all had gone we'll That.
simply; means that the body of the peo-
ple must bow down TO the behests of |
the,lsaders,, But what excuse is there
fen this senatorial proposition. Not
one reasonable argument has been ad-
vsnced in its favor not one county
committee has yet given it endorse
ment1and we are asked to accept it be-
cause gentlemen In Washington, D. c.,
uerved It. It there were good reasons
