bot a Candidate.

1t has been given out from several
sources, among them from his own
town, that State Treasurer George Fl.
Storer was candidate for governor,
and that his recent visit to North Idaho
was in the interest of his candidacy.
The statements are not true. THE
NEWS has it from unquestioned au-
thority that Mr.. Storer is not candi-
date for governor and that bis visit to
North Idaho was purely OF private
nature. 1t is among the possibilities,
however, that MIR. Storer may be a
candidate to succeed himself as state
treasurer, but Of this the time is too
far in advance Of the state convention
to speak with any positiveness. II is
Mr.. Storer's great aim to fill out his
term with credit to himself, to the
state and TO the satisfaction OF all the
people.

The Temper OF the People.

Such unanimity as now inspires the
people of the United States has not
been seen before. Upon the great
basis of common sense and patriotism
the people form their judgment OF ma
tional affairs, and their decree when
deliberately formed, as in the case of
the Cuban question, must be heard.
The problem has entailed grave anx-
iety and expense upon this country
from 1868 to 1878, and again from 1895
TO the present time. In both revolts
American blood was shed. Thirty
Americans captured on the Virginius
were shot in 1873. and President Grant
was compelled to put the fleet on war
footing. In 1898 Spanish rule in Cuba
exacts from us far heavier penalty.
A duty eyaded always returns in this
way. We have lost 1855 sailors and a
battleship by submarine mine in the
harbor of Havana through the treach.
cry OF Spaniards, concerning whose
identity not one word is offered by
Spanish officials. Again our tieet has
necessarily been modified In haste.
and Congress has voted $50, 0O0, 600 for
national defense. The Cuban question
is truly costly one for US, and delay
adds to its dangerous complications.
With true perception the people
have grasped its nature, and ask now
that it be settled without further ten
sion OF uncertainty. Twenty years ago
President Grant wrote to Madrid that
the independence of Cuba was the only
solution. But Spanish promises of po-
litical reform on the island were finally
accepted. They were not kept. The
horrors of the last three years in Cuba
go far beyond former experience. The
United States is threatened with war
il 1t intervenes except as an assistant
10 Spain, and torpedo fotilla is cross
ing the ocean aimed at our aeet. The
people are right. 1t Is time TO act, and
with all the might and dignity Of the
country. We have been patient through
two long and desolating Instructions
that compelled US, as the nearest neigh
bors, TO arm in self-defense. The ac-
count is full to Overlooking, and it can
never be cancelled until the Spanish
flag, whose accused shadow falls upon

Pocatello's Union and Harmony.

The citizens of Pocatello have given
to the state and the counties of the
state a magnificent example OF patri-
otism for their guidance in the coming
campaign.
For their city election the silver
forces met in convention, agreed upon
q union, allotted offices and nominated
q ticket OF men sans puer ct sans re-
proche, and altogether so acceptable
as to disarm opposition and make it the
one ticket only in the field.
What q pleasant condition of affairs
is promised by this action, what sat
isfactory municipal government is in
sured to the people. The campaign
has been robbed of its excitement, of
the bitterness of party wrangles and Of
the examinations and recriminations of
opposing candidates. A Utopian polit-
ieal era has come to the Gate City.
Why cannot the leaven prepared in
our sister city be made to leayen the
whole lump of silver forces in the coun-
ties and the state? Why cannot the
Ufopian spirit brought to life in Poca-
tello spread to every precinct? Why
cannot the brotherly love exhibited in
that city continue through the cam
paign of the year? Pocatello's exam
pie of patriotism is worthy of emula-
tion; it is worthy Of all praise.

THERE seems to be some difference
of opinion among the sound money men
in regard to the present status OF the
free-silver movement. On the one hand
we find Secretary Gage warning his
hearers that the sound money men must
prepare to meet in 1900 practically the
same forces they encountered in the
electoral campaign OF 1896. On the
other hand, we find Mr.. Smalley, the
general secretary of the National Sound
Money League, declaring that reports
from all parts Of the country are en-
couraging, and show that while the sill
yer movement is still active it will not
be able to hold together at another
election the great vote cast at the cleo
tion of year and half ago, though
suggesting that the work of the league
should be continued without relaxation
and should be pushed with increasing
activity and kept upon nonpartisan
basis as heretofore. 1t Is proverbially
difficult to forecast what relative part
will be played by any particular issue
in national election still two years
and half away, and it may be that the
outcome of current events will very
much modify the situation in 1900. At
the same time, it must not be forgotten
that the monetary issue furnished the
main line of cleavage between the two
great parties in 1896, and that, 50 far,
no other issue has crowded that into
the background. --Bradstreet's.

Few people outside the naval service
know just how a war vessel goes into u
fight. To put battleship like the
Iowa or Indiana In thorough readiness
for action ordinarily requires about
two hours. though, of course, IL can be
done In much less time in case Of ur-
gency.
On board fighting vessel every man
has certain assigned post and q GER
tain task laid out for him, with which
he Is perfectly familiar. When the
signal Is sounded II brings every man
to his place, and long familiarity makes
the work, SO involved and complicated
TO the eyes OF an outsider, mere mat
ter of routine.
ii ship engages an enemy unex-
pectedly, 30 that there Ia not the usual
time for preparation, the call to quar-
ters Is sounded Immediately and the
men take their places In divisions. In
this case each division attends to a
part OF the work OF clearing the ship,
but ordinarily the FIRST signal il, ''Clear
for action" At the boatswain's whis-
tie and the verbal command the men
move to their positions, those whose
places are ondeck forming 10 squads un-
der the direction Of the diffcren. officers.
The captain takes his position on the
bridge. Later, when the battle be-
gins, he will go into the protected con-
ming tower, through the narrow slit Of
which he can watch everything that
takes place on deck and the movement
OF the enemy as well. But for the
present, while the preparations are be-
ing made, he must decide the general
plan OF action, how the guns are 10 be
used, and the class apd nature Of pro-
jectiles on which he will depend.

THERE is less partisan talk in the coun
try to-day than there has been at any
previous time In three-quarters Of a
century. For few months 10 1861 the
partisan appeIlations Republican and

they returned again before the October
and November elections. The names
Wing and Democrat asserted them
selves throughout the entire war with
Mexico, as those Of Federalist and Re-
publican lDemocratj did In the war of
1872. II war with Spain takes place,

EXCITEMENT AT THE CORNER.


There was a little excitement at Har-
rington corner about 2,30 o'clock, Tues
day afternoon, caused by one of E. NJ.
Bonds teams A heavy two-horse sled
loaded with ice attempted to cross the
square, but, owing to the thaw of the
past few days. the snow had disap-
peared, and the horses were unable to
move the load over the bare pavement
and car tracks.
One of Charles Moore's teams hap
pened along, and hitched on to the end
of the pole in an attempt to haul the ice
sled along to where it was better sleigh
ing. During the maneuvering it looked
as though both sleds would be over
turned; but after while the horses
were taken off 4doore's sled and hitched
on with the other horses direct, and the
stalled team hauled to where there was
more snow.
