POLITICAL NOTES.
The Boise Statesman Rep.l. saws.

The Boise Statesman Rep.), says:
Two Republican senators voted for
free coal These were Washburn, of
Minnesota, and Hansbrough, of North
Dakota. The theory upon which they
acted probably was that free coal
would be Of some benefit to their con.
stitutents. If that is the case they are
not sound Republicans. A
sound Republican votes for protection
as a principle. Those who seek to make
local exceptions are not sound and
should be disciplined.
That is good Republican doctrine. It
was never better expressed than when
Vanderbilt said, 1.-The public be d--dr'
The new wool schedule is the latest
alarm among the organs, and as the
means to an ultra protective end they
are disposed to nurse the howl for all
there is in it. But the organs are as
usual reckless Of fact If the raising of
wool under the Mckinley law is not
profitable, where is the law that will
make it so, or what kind of law will
secure that end? The wool growers
were paid 60 cents a pound in 1857,
under the act which virtually rated
wool on the free list.-Philadelph
Times Oern).
Kindness once killed a cat, and the
kindness of protection has killed the
wool industry.
Says the New York Morning Journal
Oem.):
The prime cause of the continued
business staguation is Quay When
that aggressive senator sees that the
tariff is making progress, he gets up
and bowls like a man chased by a
grizzly bear until he is allowed to
speak. Then he talks few barrelfus
of protective "gush' until all the other
senators wilt, and it takes them day
or two to recover.
BY actual count he has already filled
one hundred and twenty columns of
the Congressional Record with statis-
tics and dreamy platituNes, and he is
good for two hundred columns more.
Quay has now shut off his speech,
for which he deserves the thanks of
suffering humanity. But the evil of the
thing is that he has been wasting the
time of the nation and delaying the
passage of the tariff bill and thereby
the revival Of business.

The Oakland (calo Tribune Rep9

The Oakland (CaL) Tribune Rep)
says:
The somewhat sensational news
comes from Chicago that Secretary of
State Gresham is conniving with the
Populist leaders for the United States
senatorship from Illionois, as the Popu-
lists expect to hold the balance of pow
er in the state legislature, and their
votes will thus turn the scale in favor
support Gresham and wife are now
in Chicago, but he refuses to talk The
country would be surprised at nothing
Gresham would do. A man who was
capable of going over to the Demo-
cracy because the Republican party did
not choose to nominate him for presi-
dent is quite capable of making an al
lance, in self-interest, with the Popu-
lists.
Yes, Republican is capable of any
thing.

is announced by the Globe-Democrat
without caustic comment. 1t may be
said in explanation of this decrease
that veterans will die and children
will come to be sixteen years of age.
Add to this the malignant cunning of
Commissioner Lochren in cutting off
fraudulent pensions and checkmating
knaves and sharks, and the reduction
seems quite feasible. Some of the ITO
tally disabled''-Judge Long, for exam
ple-may interpose few sanguinary
objections, but the better sentiment of
the country will not believe that the
decrease argues any injustice to a de-
serving soldier or his helpless depend
Ients.-Kansas City Times Dem.).
The pension list today costs the
United States more than Germany's
army costs her Twenty years ago
Garfield said the pension appropria-
tons should begin to decrease instead
of increase. But it has been the aim
Of Republican politicians to turn pa
triotism and a spirit of gratitude into
a political machine.
Commenting on the cost of the recent
strike in the coal regions, the New
York Commercial Advertiser says:
1t is estimated that of the 100000
miners the average pay was $3.50 a
day, so that every one of these rioters
has been mulcted by his own folly and
reclSlessness $125. He has added a
debt of that amount to the poverty of
which he complains, of his own Volt
| ton. And in his aggregate capacity he
| has reduced the wages fund of the
states about him S12, 5000
By his mere cessation of labor, and
lstill more by his criminal interference
with men who were willing to do the
work. he has caused to the mine own
ers a loss estimated at about $7,500000
more, making a total Of about $4,000
900.
A worse feature of these strikes is
| the fact that men who are willing and
anxious to work are prevented, and
lawlessness too often reigns supreme.
Every man in America must be pro-
tected in all his legal rights. first
among which is his right of freedom to
earn his daily bread.

he drove through the tool gate and
was driving on the turnpike. But the
fields are not all laid out for public

The oats, as far as people threshed
in the neighborhood, turns out very
poor. From 8 to 10 bushels per acre

So many people seem to seek
livelihood by tramping the highways.
Evidently the pubic highways have

that the demand of payment in the

airy cause. What's your idea'

The Idea.

A bill recently originated in the
Senate prohibiting lobbying Just
think of it, The measure defines
professional lobbyists and our Sena-
tors know how to define them) as
chose who habitually attempt to in
fluence legislative action"
Now the honorable Senators know
that stronger words might be used in
defining the lobbyist who not only
attempts but generally succeeds in in.
fiuencing legislation, Congress would
feel lonely without lobbyists). His
mere attempt would OF course make
the bill proposed entirely unnecessary.
1t is the success and not the attempt
Of the lobbyist that the astute Senators
want to watch up closer by watching
themselves.
To have defined the professional
lobbyist and even the novices as
those who generally get what they
come for, if they go about it right
would have been about correct we
think and to have mentioned the
fact that it is the eloquence of their
money that makes their opportunities
irresistible would have been to hit the
nail right square on the head.
or course our statesmen have a per-
feet right to thus defend themselves
against irresistible and vicious influ-
ences from any and every source, and
the measure as a whole must be ad-
mitted to have righteous tenor. For
this particular reason, the righteous
tenor of it, we tremble for its fate
when we consider the real and not the
affected moral status Of Congress.
In our opinion it is very doubtful
whether prohibition will ever prohibit
lobbying under any such weak terms
as those proposed in the measure re-
ferred to for it will be observed that
none but habitual lobbying is pro-
hibited. The spasmodic lobbyist with
a pocket full Of money with which to
defend his rich employers interests
gives no offense against the law, be-
cause his case as lobbyist is not
chronic. He may never have tried his
hand at bribery before, and yet prove
to be quite an expert in influencing
legislation by putting his firms money
where it will do the most good to the
firm, or to the industry he represents.
A higher sense of honor on the
part of our statesmen, who are very
well paid for the services they are sup
posed to render is the only lobby pro-
hibition or restraint we can think of
under the present demoralized con-
ditions in Congress.
Why, the introduction of such bill
in the proud upper House of Congress
is an avowed acknowledgment Of lack
of honor and fidelity on the part of
our highest public officials! They thus
virtually admit (and it is generally
known today themselves TOO weak
to withstand the temptations of pro-
fessional lobbyists with pockets full of
money. The people at large will, we
greatly fear, continue to suffer from
the result of congressional weakness
and lobby strength until principle
rather than pelf actuates our modern
statesmen.

WESTERN FIRES.

Never within the memory of the
writer has any such terrible devasta-
ton resulted from draught and fire as
has been recorded as Detailing the
Western States this summer Truth
full tales Of the most horrible disasters
have reached US almost daily for
weeks and months in which whole
towns bordering on the woods have
been destroyed. There have been
very heavy financial losses besides the
burning of millions Of acres of choice
timber land. In the battles for homes
and property it is estimated that about
a thousand lives have been lost Miles
of tracks of railways have been more
or less injured, and the general traffic
crippled through the burning of
bridges. While some towns have been
burned out others have narrowly
escaped total destruction.
So far as can now be learned the
following towns have been destroyed
and the following are dead in num-
bers -
Hinckley, MINI, 1000 to 1900
inhabitants $50 dead 500 to 600
homeless.
Pokegama, MINI, next station
southwest of Hlnckley; 500 inhabi-
tants, fifty dead.
Mission Creek, next station south
Of Hinckley, on the St. Paul & Duluth
Road, ten dead.
Sandstone Junction, Mimi, next
station north of Hinckley, on the st.
Paul & Duluth Road, twenty-six dead.
Sandstone, second station north of
Hinkley, on the Eastern Road, sixty
two dead.
Cromwell, MINI, Carlton County,
dead unknown.
Miller, Mimi, near Hinckley, of
railroad line, twelve dead.
Washburn, Wis Mills and millions
of feet of lumber destroyed.
Beloit, Wis, in ashes, except one
mill and some lumber.
Ashland Junction, Wis, many build
ings burned.
Partridge, Wis, wiped out COM
pletely.
Bashaw, Finlayson, Moose Lake
Cadott, Glidden, Saxon, Marengo and
Highbridge partly destroyed.
Glidden was in danger of total des-
truction when last heard from.
Haugen, Wis, wiped out,
Shell Lake, Baronette, Granite,
Lake, Cumberland, Pineville, Com.
stock and Forest City, lumber towns
in Wisconsin, between Chippewa Falls
and Superior, partly destroyed.
The number of dead in these Wis
consin towns and in other parts OF
the country between Chippewa Falls
and Superior is estimated at 100
persons.
The Minnesota confagration swept
everything in its path from Pine City
as far as Carlton, near Duluth.
The loss to property at Hinckley is
about 100000.
RAIN AT LAST IN THE FIRE AND
DROUGHT STRICKEN WEST.

ST. PAUL, MINI, Sept. 3.

oi' AOI; NiNN', OSPt. s.
Heavy rain to-day fell in and
around Hinckley, the worst devasted
region in Minnesota's fre-swept terri
tory, and the panicky feeling which
prevailed throughout the northeastern
section of the State was allayed.
All day, in both St. Paul and Mime
apolis, the leading citizens have been
at work arranging for the relief of the
fire sufferers, and the work tonight is
well under way. A carload of food
and clothing will be shipped to Pine
City in the morning and other relief
as fast as it can be arranged.
Already the contributions in Mime.
apolis amount to over $a,5oo. The
Firemen's Relief Association appropri-
ated 81, 900 and the Police Depart
ment will be similarly generous.
1t is estimated that the fire des-
troyed 1000 square miles of timber
in Michigan, while as yet it is i'm
possible to estimate the general de-
vastations resulting from the terrible
drought and fire in the west this
summer.
