You people OF Emmett, doyou remem-
that railroad meeting and raOOil num-
down AT Payette in the dead OF winter,
not quite year ago. II you DO mat
ought 10 be enough. That piece oi ex-
perience ought to settle the county-seat
question itself, 50 far as Emmett ID
concerned community shat would
work such josh on neigbborlng com
munity us that would do anything.
Vote for Caldwell.
THE INDEX hopes that no man In En-
NETT will allow few dollars IN cash 10
influence him to vote against his own
interests in the county seat fight in Can
'yon county and it is clearly in the IN
terest Of Emmett to have thecounty seat
of CANYON county over in Boise valley Ms
we all want n county OF our own over
here in the Payette valley and Squaw
creek country with Il county seat al
Emmett. And if Payette gets the coun-
ty seat Of Canyon county we might MS
well crawl in our hole as TO hope for
county seat at Emmett.
IT is only eighteen miles from Emmett
to CaldAe,l and it is more than
thirty miles from Emmett 10 Payette.
II the county seat remains at Caldwell,
Emmett people can go over and have
three or four hours to Transact any
county business they may have and get
back in the same day. II Will take two
days to make the same trip to Payette
and not have as much daylight or tine
during office hours to transact business.
You people who have not gone down TO
Payette for eight or ten YEARS, or per-
haps never, certainly do nos appreciate
the immensely of the job you are under
taking in putting the county seat at
Payette. And while the exnenscs OF
individuals would be more than doubled
by having the county seat at Payette,
county expenses would be almost thrib-
bled, and this is not for one year but for
all time 10 come. The cost is too great
to work out personal revenge in matter
OF this kind. II is like psying ~ am
inch per year for water 1t don't end vt
one year but 1t goes on forever rs long as
time lasts and Payette keeps the county
seat.

THE republicans are trying to scare
the people into voting against the peo-
pies party upon the grounds that capital
always vanishes where there Is peoples
party rule. The absolute falsity Of this
assertion is thoroughly proven by the
fact that Kansas has been able TO refund
her bonded Indebtedness at four per
cent. interest while. under republican
rule seven per cent interest was paid ON
the bonded Indebtedness OF that state.
Honest capital seeking fair returns for
investments will 20 TO peoples party
states today sooner than To many states
where the republicans by their extrava-
gance have gotten SO deeply in debt as
to greatly depreciate state warrants and
cause state bonds to sell for less than
par. States. counties and cities that are
carefully and economically managed will
have no Trouble in getting capital for
public or private investments on account
Of the political complexion Of their OH.
cials; but Idaho. not because il has been
under republican rule. but because OF
their wanton extravaganza, has during
the past few years encountered much
trouble in securing capital for the pro
motion Of the many meriiorious enter
prises In this state.

The fact that returns for county di-

A CORRESPONDENT at Falk's Store
writing TO the Evening Mail of Boise to
report republican meeting at that
place, says;
Mr.. Fethan said he was going to speak
purely on local issues, but he failed To
tell us how much the republican county
officers Of Canyon county had cost the
people; he failed to tell us that the as
SCISSOR had drawn out OF the county
treasury $4,000 last year for assessing the
county and In addition 800 clerk hire
which Is unwarranted by the statutes.
He failed TO tell what they were going Ia

ONE Of the most remarkable things we
ever heard OF is connected with the Judge
ship in this district. The opposition is
trying to defeat J. II. Richards because
he is connected with the ditch companies
and all the big corporations in this dis
trict are leaving nothing undone to invoke
the defeat of Mr.. Richards. There is no
doubt but the ditch companies are fight
ing Mr.. Richards and they are fighting
him in the interests Of Judge Nugent
This is indeed a peculiar situation. 1t

Rev. John l.. Scudder. pastor of the
Tabernacle, Jersey City. called at Police
Headquarters this morning and Informed
Chief Murphy about gambling-house
where. Rev. Mr.. Scudder alleges, the
proprietor pays protection money to the

prietor, whose name the police and Rev.
Mr.. Scudder refuse to divulge. will make
an affidavit that he pays protection
money the accused police official will be
arraigned before the Police Commission
ers for trial.
Rev. Mr.. Scudder also appeared before
Judge Potts and secured warrant for
the arrest Of a keeper of an alleged dis
orderly house, also located in the First
Precinct. The place will be probably
ralded tonight.
When the clergyman preached his ser
mon on Sunday saying vice was rampant
in Jersey city, and especially in the
First Precinct, the charges made by Mr..
Scudder were denied by Capt. Farrier.
Capt. Farrler It Is alleged. said that

warrant for the disorderly house in Capt.
Farrier's precinct In order to prove that

no WONDER BURGLARS FLED.
Confronted by a Fake Safe After
Entering the Store.
Dropped Their Tools and Went Out
to Kick Themselves.


Albert Davis, q sign painter, of SO
Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn. rushed into
the Adams street police station at I
o'clock this morning and told the SER
geant at the desk that thieves had en-
tered his store during the night and
after rummagng about the premises
had evidently become alarmed and fed,
leaving a kit of safe-breaker's tools be-
hind. Nothing was stolen.
Mr.. Davis said the burglars were evil
IDENTIFY attracted to his store by the
supposition that he had a large sum Of
money locked in a large safe which
stands against the wall in the front of
the store, between two windows.
The sergeant Immediately called up
Police Headquarters on the telephone
and reported the case. Two detectives
from the Central Office were detailed to
investigate the matter.
They learned from Davis that the place
was securely locked up at 10 o'clock last
night When Davis and his assistant. a
young man named Pyle. reached the
place this morning they found a kit Of
tools scattered about on the floor. The

Atcn ana entered.
The detectives looked over the prem
fses and found that the safe bore no
marks Of having been tempered with.
They gathered the tools together and
carried them to the station-house.
In the lot were two iimmies. an iron
hammer. covered with plush. used as
a "deadener.' small chisel, round
punch and several other implements.
The detectives also learned some aldi-
tional facts which were not entered
upon the blotter. and promised to in
vestigafe the case.
An Evening World reporter called
at the store this morning and gathered
these facts. which were withheld by the
police: The safe Is five feet high. and Is
constructed Of pine wood, covered with
oilc!oth. the real nature of which had
been concealed by several coats of black
coach paint. The Combination lock"
was constructed of two door knobs, and
the heavy hinges were merely sections
OF a broom-handle, ornamented with
small rubber balls. The safe was open
on the side nearest Mr.. Davis's work
bench, and 1t had no back to II. Davis
confessed that 1t cost only Is cents to
construct.

imitation of the real article. To "A per
