The Mormons Work Both Sides.

Joe and Ben Rich are brothers.
The former is a Democrat, the lat
ter is Republican. Ben was the
temporary chairman of the late
Republican convention and Joe
temporary and permanent chair
man of the Democratic state con-
vention. They belong to good
old Mormon family than which in
worth, intellect and responsibility,
none in the state are higher. These
two brothers are both bright, but of
course Joe is head and shoulders
above Ben in weight of brain
and natural and acquired abilities.
In speaking of his distinguished
brother while in Boise the other day
Joe said: "Ben is a tolerable good
man but the d--est political liar
that ever went unhung."-Boise

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION;
s. D. TAYLOR, Editor and Proprietor,

THE utter disregard for public
sentiment displayed by the republi-
can ring leaders of this county re-
minds us of the days when Ed Minis
was running the democratic cam
paign two years ago. Ed made up
his mind that public sentiment was
a vagary that politicians were not
bound to respect and accordingly
he proceeded to carry out system
of fraud which he hoped would
carry the day. The result is well
known and the democrats have been
compelled to reorganize their party.
1t looks as though the ring manag
ers were preparing to win by trick
cry or fraud. They certainly do
not expect to win by their present
disregard of public sentiment.
Many of their nominees are proven
by members of their own party to be
creatures Of bargain and sale and
trickery. Do they expect to play
the voters the same way? They
may get fooled.

CAPT. f. L. EVANS, a populist
speaker, addressed good sized au
dience in Union Hall last Tuesday
evening and opened the campaign
for the populists. Quite number
of ladies were out to listen to the
speaker. The Captain has forci-
BILE delivery and it must be admit
ted by all who heard him that he
made patriotic address. Many of
the Captains hest hits, and for
which he received the most applause,
hardly belong to the domain of
partisan politics. The orator is a
young looking man, but is veter-
an of the civil war and saw hard
service in the field. Right or wrong
in his political theories, Captain
Evans was voted a broad, whole
souled man by everyone who came
in contact with him here.

and pointing to a landscape envel-
Oped in vegetation and dotted with
the cottages of a happy peasantry,
said: "BefOre the revolution all these
were mine, but now am confined to a
few acres, and rejoice at the change
because it has promoted the happiness
of thousands, while / am left enough
for my declining years." etc. How
different from the mOusing politician
Of our day and generation, anxious
only for personal spoil and personal
promotion, while the poor and hungry,
tramping the highways, may go to
grass if not to worse destiny. And
if they go to the first, as in the case of
COxey, they are likely to fetch up in
the last.
The moral of all of which is, gov.
ernor, live for humanity, and like your
two great democratic exemplars, the
Saviour and Thomas Jefferson, spend
your life in work for the weak and
loWly, who so sadly stand in need of
your help. Don't play turnkey to
wealth and aristocEacy. The pope
even don't require any one to kiss his
big toe in this day, and don't be anx-
ious to kiss any one else's.
But now have gone so far in pay

ism and its success in the administra-
tiOn of our governments thus far to
another number.

FOLLY OE THE STRIKE.
Hunger Will Always Bring the LabOrer to
His Knees.

munger VIII Always Bring tha LabOFer TO
His Knees.
EDITOR ADYOCATE:-The events of
the past few weeks have emphasized
the folly of the strike. They have
demonstrated the fact that labor never
can secure its own until it inaugurates
a strike for justice at the ballot box.
This is the only strike that can i'm
prove the condition of the laborer. The
capitalist well knows that it is only
necessary at the farthest to wait until
hunger has done its work to disrupt
the labor organization and bring the
labOrer to his knees. The same
strength and organization that have
been wasted in an effort to secure
rights of labor would have settled the
labor question at the ballot box. The
laborer must learn that it is not in de-
tail but in principal that the present
system is wrong; that the capitalist is
but the fruit of an economic system
that permits the mOnopoliZation of
land and money; that wealth created
by the community is as sacred as pri-
Vate property and ought to rebound to
the happiness of all. He must learn to
distinguish well between right and
privilege to demand the enthronement
OF the one and the abolition of the
other. Not how to make the lot of the
lsbOrer endurable, but how to make it
enjoyable, is the burning question of
the hour.
But the problems which confront us
admit of but little time for the solu-
tion. LabOr's necessities WELD lash
more imperiOus than that of the slave
driver. The demands of hunger must
be satisfied. The process of reducing
the laborer to submission by starvation
may end in revolution.
The spirit of freedom is the soul of
progress. No man can be free whose
bread depends upon the caprice of
another. The wage system is the slave
system under a more euphonious name.
The constant trend of wages down
ward is in obedience to a law as mex
orable as any in nature. "That wages
constantly trend to the least sum that
will enable the laborer to subsist and

born OF old federal stock and educated
in the whig schooD have not got the
disease of democracy very bad-only a
mild type of it-that it is gradually
working to the surface and you will
probably be rid Of it in short time.
My diagnosis of such cases leads me to
that conclusion, and | think am not
mistaken; your and his course in 1896
will tell. And if it were anyone else l
should say that your candidacy for
governor and your autocratic annunci-
ations were advertisements to the cor
porations and combines of a statesman
likely to be out Of a job and of his
readiness to enter their service and
fight their battles against his less
favored and toil-worn fellow demo
Gratis in their employ.
1 cannot but think it was fortunate
that you didn't live in the era of that
noted tramp Of the olden time who, like
Coxey's men, had not where to lay his
head, or you would now probably be
bewailing in sorrow your mistake in
assisting to rid society of one said to
be turning the world upside down and
who was crucifed by the aristocracy
because he associated with the poor
and loWly and was himself a low, mean
fellow. And if you had lived in the
day Of the American revolution, how
you would have wollOped the loose
element that enlisted in that great in
surrection against royalty; for we all
know that the better element of that
age las you and yours denominate it)

ment and society. Almost all the
wealth of New York and of the cOun-
try generally proved true to the king
in that great contest; as those who
read Sabine's "Tory Families" most
of whom fled to Nova Scotia after the
war, in other words, after the looser
had carried the day and emancipated |
the country from the authority of the |
British crown. | have often listened |

ment of that time and to a very de-
preciating characterization of those
who demanded change and a chance
for all men alike, for the million as
well as for the millionaire.
And how, governor, like Burke, you
would have unbridled your tongue, ,ifno
more formidable weapon, at the rabble
of the French revolution who brought
their lleeing king and queen back
and submitted their necks to the gull
lOtine, and afterwards set fire to a
thousand manor houses in one night |
and divided up the great estate (the
lands of France) that had got into the
possession of the noblest and the
clergy, and then been exempted from
,axstion, like the thousands of mil
ions with us for the past twenty-five
7ears; hard, nay, cruel alternative,
If course, but the mobiles and clergy
had made the bed and they must lay
n it. They had aggravated poor hu-
nan nature beyond endurance and up
o point of vengeance, the natural
of which followed. But
positive and acknowledged good grew
