IDAHO, NOVEMBER IA. 1895
Waterman, What OF the Night

The face of the figures of last weeks
election shows that the fusion ticket OF
Democrats and Populists won the VIC
tory. From the very beginning OF the
campaign it was plainly apparent 1t
would win. An intense Gesire to beat
a common enemy, who had ruled the
State from the first day of Statehood,
supplied the motive for fusion and
made it effective to the end. But, can
the watchman from his tower, tell US II
the victory win be lasting, if 1T will De
decisive.
To THE NEWS it has many OF the
marks of an experimental vietory-of
one which may be fruitful of glorious
results, or it may be followed by most
signal failure. 1t is an easy thing Tor
two parties to come together and make
M fusion ticket for a campaign, but
to weld them together for further ser
vice when they entertain radical diff
ferences of opinions on party policies
and principles, is not so easily accom-
plished. Mr.. Steunenberg, who will
have immediate charge of the admins
tration forces of the State win find
numberless opportunities for the full
est exercise and display OF his sagacity
as a party leader and OF his executive
ability as a governor to make the vic
tory of last weeks election lasting and
of fruitful results.
Had it been possible for him to have
gone into Office dependent upon the
Democratic party and its vote, the
State would have been assured OF
Quiet and successful administration ant
the people would have been guarantees
satisfaction, peace and contentment
but in making concessions to the dc
lnands and requirements OF anothe
party, there is danger of the victor
being dispoiled of its fruits. and OF th
people being disappointed in their e.
pectations.
To be truly loyal to the Democrat
party will call forth the strongest g
dorsement of the party and will e
courage party pride which will prove
potent influence in the successful ma
agement of State affairs, but it "
shake the faith of the Populist par
and call forth lukewarmness, and p
sibly an open condemnation and r
ture OF the alliance. To know the II
guide and follow it will be dificl
To serve two masters is next to the
possible. But whatever may come
the end let every true and patri'
citizen of the State resolve TO stand
the new governor, who we know
discharge his official duties faithful
honestly and impartially and with
best interests of the State at all I'll
before his eyes.

PHILOSOPHICAL REASONS.
Religion and Common Sense Dealt
With BY the Lotus Club.

The Theosophical society held a
meeting at it's rooms in the Progress
building yesterday morning at IL
oclock-Papers read.
The paper presented dealt with "Rea-
son and Religion" and in substance
was as follows:
Many students of nature have OBJ
served that thought seems to pass in
waves and cycles across the earth
An idea which awakens in Manches-
ter is to be found in Bombay and
San Francisco at almost the same
time. From this we are led to the
conclusion that ideas float in the air,
At che time an idea prevailed
to the effect that dogmatism
was the chief factor of life. Then a
negative movement was inaugurated
ard this idea was disseminated. The
Philosophical society was particularly
active in helping rid the world of
this trend of thought, if such it may
be designated, and now a cycle of ma
terialistic thought is dominant which
even at this time is opposed by think
ers in every land. Religion, or the re-
ligious idea, has begun to be adopted,
thought, felt and experienced by men,
without proper use of their faculties
OF reason. As result there are those
who say they know thir gs to- be true
because of their intuition.
There are two types OF men who are
led by intuition. The first tells you
that there is no such thing as EVIL
Books have been written which relate
that there are no such things as
plaques, diseases, fires, wars, or any
thing which are dangerous. devilish
or cruel: that all things are good, that
there il no evil. Now if reason is
brought TO bear on this point, the first
fact presented IS that good and evil
are relative terms. If one is elimi-
mated the other Is stricken out. To
merely say that plaques. diseases and
ether evils do not exist is untrue. The
mere saying that evil does not exist
does not eradicate it. Avoid it by all
means. fight against 1T. but do not
take the stand that it does not exist.
The second type sees clairvoyantly
styles himself seer and medium and
asks that every distorted vision he
has be believed and that everything
he says be considered true, otherwise
he will not associate with you.
1t is true that every person has per-

usually large attended meeting on
Wednesday evening last, at which the

Price, spared no expense to make the

due them for their efforts. After the
concert, which lasted one and one-half
hours. all adjourned to the ballroom
and dancing was INDUCED in until /

Vessels VIII Soon Be CuiIed For.
WASHINGTON. June 14.-Within ten
days the navy department will put out
advertisements calling for proposals for
building the three great battleships, three
torpedo boat deStroyerS and ten torpedo
boats for which congress has provided in
the naval appropriation bill. This is an
unexampled record for observation-disclosures in
the PREPARATIONS OF designs and the fix
ing OF the features of the craft to be
built. In their main feature the battle

OF the plans OF the Massachusetts and
the kearsarge, but many important
especially in the batteries The greatest
novelties will be the three thirty-knot
torpedo destroyers, which will ir.augurate
a new class in the United States navy.
The purpose of the department is to go as
lar as possible in the way of encourage
ment of American designers and con-
structors, by allowing the Eidest latitude
in the design of these crafts.
In some measure this course is made
necessary by the reluctance of builders
to undertake the building of such crafts
of which remarkable power and speed are
required without being freed of all pos
sible restrictions. Therefore, the adver-
tiSementS of the department will fix only
The tonnage will be fixed close, in the
neighborhood of $50. This, it is expected
will lead to the submission OF plans close
ly resembling those of the famous Rus
sian torpedo destroyer '.Sukut," which
easily ran over thirty knots ON trial. This
means that the boats will be about $50
feet long by 70 feet in breadth, with a
draught of five feet nine inches. To at
tain the great speed required, it is esti-
mated Will call for the supply of ma
chinery equal to the development of near
ly 5000 horsepower The ten smaller boats
will not tax the constructors SO greatly
because the speed required is more reas-
enable, being fixed at twenty knots.
