SENATORSHIP.

The thought that the Hon. Mr..
CLAGGET is after the senatorship
seems to be the cause of much worri-
ment among our Republican and Dem
ocratic contemporaries. They assert
that he is a turn-coat, a chameleon in
politics, that he would do anything to
become United States senator from
Idaho. That is alright. The Republi-
can party has five or six of these peO-
pie in her ranks that have semi off.
cially expressed themselves the Dem
Gratis have an equal number of dark
horses. But it is alright for the old
parties to have senatorial aspirants
and party tricksters, but for the Popu-
lists that is indeed to bad. If the Pop
ulists carry the state the election Of the
Hon. w. H. CLAGGET by the legislature
to represent Idaho in the senate should
be welcomed. as he is the only Populist
so far that seems to possess the educa-
ton and intelligence requisite to repre-
sent Idaho in that august body. Why
don't the Republican and Democrat
papers clear their party of filth and
corruption, and then, when that hercu-
lean task is accomplished, attempt to
purify the party of "purity?"

UNITED STAT g SENATORS.

The house of representatives re-
Gently adopted resolution by over a
two-thirds vote, the amount required
by the constitution, to elect United
States senators by direct vote
of the people. The resolution was ap-
proved by the speaker of house, attested
by the clerk and carried over to that
august body, the United States senate.
Since that event transpired we have
heard nothing whatever concerning the
resolution. We would like ask why
our valiant senators, Messrs ShOup and
Dubois, did not Immediately call for
reading of that resolution and pass it on
to the second reading and into the hands
of the committee on privileges and cleo
ton? Why did they not move for an
expeditions consideration of the ques-
tions? The legislatures of every state
in this union meets in December of this
year, and three fourths of the state
legislatures of the United States must
ratify this resolution, why not hurry
it? Why haven't we heard more about
this resolution, especially since it has
become so important in Idaho within
the last two months. But then it may
be urged that it is very important

the P0PULIsT PLATFORM.

The Populist State Convention has
met, nominated their candidates for the
state and district Offices, and adopted
a long set of resolutions. They endorse
the national platform of the Peoples
party adopted at Omaha, July 4, 1894
That was expected. They declare
themselves party of law and order
This was hardly expected, although
possibly they deemed it necessary to
repudiate the acts of WAITE of Color
ado; PENNoYER, of Oregon, and LEU
wELLAN, of Kansas. 1t is always best
especially in a political campaign to
keep the skirts of the party as clean as
possible. 1t is even possible had they
not mentioned the fact people may
have thought differently. It's a bad
idea, this, of people thinking, during a
political campaign anyway.
We believe that true craftsmanship lies in
making good laws far more than in enforcing
bad ones.
We were in grave doubt concerning
the above but since the platform has
enunciated the idea we have come to a
conclusion that there is considerable in
it. 1t has come to be a fad with our
legislators and statesmen of late years
to not only enact bad laws but actually
enforce them.
We reiterate our demands for the free and un-
itn<n lcp1
legal ratio OF Is toll.
This is a pretty good. No doubt of
its meaning whatever. But it hits the
Populists in the east a pretty hard
blow, especially JERRY SIMPSON and
that little article of his in the Forum
of recent date, also the professions of
General WEAVER. late presidential
candidate on the Populist ticket. We
thought the Populists believed in the
irredeemable and unlimited coinage of
paper money. The plank treating the
irrigation question is excellent and, SUI
perficial. The question was not deeply
considered. Resolutions 6, Z, 8 and 9
are choice articles of bait. Resolution
10 is purely socialistic. 1t provides for
the lease of school lands by the state
to actual occupants instead of its being
disposed of as at present. They favor
the passage of q state law making it
binding upon the officers elected to
fulfil the promises made in their party
platforms. The platform as a whole
has but two good planks the rest are
platitudes.

An int resting contribution to the cause
OF those who are now engaged IN trying to
bring about a reasonable reduction of the
price OF bread is that which is printed in
The Star today. The employing bakers of
Washington insist that anything like mate
rial reduction in the wholesale. and there
fore the retail. price of bread is impossible.
The selfish emptiness of that contention
has been shown most conclusively by The
Star: there is ample evidence on hand to
prove that bread of as good quality as the
best sold in this city is to be had elsewhere
in this country at rates more nearly in
harmony with the present price of -four
than are the rates known to local consum-
ers. The communication to which refer
ence has been made calls attention 20 the
remarkable difference between the prices IN
this city and those current in the Scotch
town Of Dundee-the bread in both instances
being made Of American -four. In Dundee
where. as Mr.. Floyd states. the bakers have
high repute-household loaves-very much
better than the loaf here retaied for I
cents-weigh four pounds each and are sold
70 the consumer for cents; which. of
course. is at the rate of cents per pound.
Vienna loavas, quite equal to the best
Washington product, are sold at the rate
of 3 IL cents per pound. while an extra
fine quality of tea loaf, weighing four
pounds and containing every element
necessary 10 the manufacture of bread
that cannot be surpassed. Is sold for IL
cents; which is at the rate of 3-i cents
per pound. Dundee bakers certainly pay
as much for their -four as Washington
bakers do: they pay their journeymen from
s. to 81 pr week-clOse on the heels of
Washington wages. From these facts il is
evident that the employing bread-makers
of this city are charging just twice as much
for their best product as are the bakers
of Dundee for the same variety Of goods
The Dundee baker, being of course a
Scotchman. Is not in the baking business
solely for his health. Scotch character is
essentially "canny," and the Scotch man of
business rarely permits a money making
opportunity TO pass by unimproved. The
Star of Saturday quoted from an Alexandria
Paper Crhe Gazette a statement that Alex
andria bakers who can make bread at 8
cents pound would find q larger field open
to them in Washington. That was a very
pertinent suSgestio In setting up bakeries
here, the AleNardrians would find the pub
lie ready TO give them custom and en-
couragment. But IL IT IS once understood
throughout the country that the price OF
bread in Washington is held at > cents per
loaf while flour is $3.50 per barrel, there

States. wherein provision is made for the
humane deportation Of the Negro. the

Second. The provision of proper means

meet the wants of our home people and vet
securely and truly preserve our national
credit.
Third To cheaper the cost of living. TO
