Chatting with come friends In the I'm

when the conversation turned upon the
Chinese-Japanese war:
THE Chinese as a race are proverbial
towards, but some honorable exceptions
to this quality have come under my OBJ
servation, and the behavior OF their SOL
diers is largely affected by Circumstances.
If the Chinese are a peace7loving and
timorous people 1t Is due, perhaps, to the
long centuries Of quiet which the Empire

THE CREAM OF CURRENT THOUGHT.

THE CREAM OF CURRENT THOUGHT.
Public Opinion, published at Wash
ington, d. e., is a weekly journal de-
voted to the reproduction, in condensed
form, Of carefully selected magazine
articles and of editorial comment from
the representative daily and weekly
press Of all political parties, and from
all parts of the country. The readers
Of Public Opinion get all sides of every
question. 1t is just the paper that the
farmer and villager need for general
reading. It keeps its readers fully
abreast of the times and supplies them
with the best thought of the day in the
fields of American affairs, foreign
affairs, sociology, commerce, finance
religion, science, education, art and
new books. Public Opinion and THE
TRIBUNE supplement each other ad-
mirably. Together they give the farm
or or villager and his family more of
current news, editorial comment, and
magazine literature than can be had in
any other way for five times their cost.
The price Of Public Opinion has been
reduced from $500 to $3.50 per year.
We have just completed arrangements
by which we can offer Public Opinion
and THE TRIBUNE for 81 cash per year

COUNTY SEAT.

Caldwell, the county seat, sends greet
ing to the citizens of Canyon county.
Her people are deeply grateful for the
distinction which has been conferred
upon their town. During the contest
some strifes and animosites were awak-
ened and the better judgment of men
was swayed by their passions and anx-
ieties. Things were done and said
which it were better had never been;
but let it all pass and be forgotten. In
the main, it was q decent and honor
able campaign. It was creditable to
the civilization and patriotism of the
county. Caldwell does not arrogate to
herself any particular credit for win
ming the fight. The judgment of the
people admonished them that q
vote for Caldwell was vote for
the public interest. Nothing re-
mains but to accept the decision grace
fully and cheerfully. While the people
Of Caldwell can not help but rejoice in
their own success, they do not glory in
the defeat of their rivals. Their great
est cause for graduation lies in the
loyalty Of outside districts. Lower
Boise, Middleton, Roswell, and Kuns
stood BY Caldwell manfully and she
had substantial support in Emmett and
Mamma deaDitA th0 strong influenced
which operated against her in those
towns. Caldwell has no word of COM
plant to make. We believe the judg-
ment Of the majority is correct and feel
that the county seat contest ought to
be lost and forgotten in an immed-
late and united effort for the upbuild-
ing, progress and prosperity Of Can
yon county.

AFTER THE nALLoTINo.

Monday the patriotic citizen cast
his ballot, today he eagerly scans the
returns. Monday he walked to the
polls with the thought firmly impressed
upon his soul that he was casting the
ultimate expression Of his political
thoughts for the men aud measures
that would best subserve the interests
Of the people. Some thought their
votes much more potent and far reach
ing. Some imagined that q gigantic
scheme inveighed against the very
foundations Of society, enthralling hu-
man liberty and happiness, corrupting
government, disregarding laws and
constitutional checks would be disen-
throned that mighty incubus would
be lifted from the shoulders Of bur-
dened people with their vote or the In.
huence'of it. 1t is right for people to
be jealous Of their liberties and re-
gardful of their rights. We hope that
every voter was mindful of his inter-
ests and deeply impressed with the re-
sponsibility he assumed that he con-
Quoted himself as sovereign citizen
should. Now that he has faithfully
performed the duty assigned, we hope
he will not consider his responsibility
ended. If he is jealons of his liberties,
and what citizen will boast he is not,
he will keep his eyes on the men he
has honored, and see that they perform
their duties as per contract. Now all
the III feeling and animosities that per-
turbed the souls of men previous to an
election are entirely unnecessary and

DURING the late lamented campaign
the people were impressed with the
Importance Of electing their respective
party legislative tickets, because a
United States senator was to be elected
by the legisture this winter. During it
all, though, very little has been said
definitely as to who ought to be elected
by the legislature. The TRIBUNE has
not been as deeply perturbed over the
legislative ticket as many of its con-
temporaries have been, because we
were content to cross the senatorial
bridge when we came to 1t in the reg
ular order of business. Now the ques-
ton of the selection of a senator
is upon us, and the people OF the
state should commence to seriously
consider who the man ought to be.
The TRIBUNE has its mind on num-
Der of men who would cheerfully take
the job, and after a little more investi-
cation and reflection will probably an
nounce its choice and give its reasons
in support.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1894-11-07

Now comes the beginning Of politi-
cal woe to the candidate whose ante
election promises are staring him in
the face demanding ful6llment. How
many profuse and solemn pledges will
have to be broken! What cursing Ind
crashing of teeth there win be among
the men who have pinned their faith
and suspended their hopes on road dis
tricts and deputyships. But we must
not blame the poor candidates. They
will redeem all the promises they can
and, probably, great many they ought
not to.

ELsEwERE we publish in this issue
of the Sun a clipping from the Ft,
Smith Elevator giving the reasons
of the editor Of that journal for
supporting Gov Fishbask for U. ..
Senate. We publish it as purely
business matter, and our correspon-
dence with him regarding it he ex-
presses the desire that it shall be so
considered. He has an ambition to
po to the U. S Senate and all fair
minded men are bound to grant
that such an ambition is laudable.
While there are many things about
Gov Fshback that we admire in a
public man there are other things
That we do not, and until after the
nominations are closed the sun has

We notice that quite a number OF
the State press have published the
same article spoken of above, and
suppose it is Il purely business
matter" which means that it is
paid for There is nothing wrong
in being paid for such articles, but
each paper ought to be as candid
as the Sun, and tell the public
about it, so that undue influence
will not be brought to bear upon the
public mind. Bro. Rogers is wrong
in one thing in the above, if he is
opposed to Fishback, he should not

Just to Senator Berry, in its exten
sively advertised article, giving its
reasons for supporting Fishbacb
over Berry; it says BERRY voted
against the anti-option bill, while
Fishback agrees with Senator
George, of Miss, that the cotton
exchange in New York is costing
the South millions every year by
keeping down the price of cotton. y
The truth is Senators Berry and
George stand exactly together on
anti-option, Berry having voted for
Georges bill in the Senate, They
both voted against the Hatch bill
because it was wrong in principle
precedent, as it sought to destroy
dealing in options by taxing it to
death, whereas the George bill went
to the root of the matter right, by
making it felony, punishable by
both fine and Imprisonment. Sen
ator Berry has never been found
