Mr.. Patrie's interview IS still
source of editorial comment, most
of which is decidedly uufavorable
to the position taken by the secre-
tary OF state, who is by his delara-
ton purely a spokesman, holding
his party organization, as he
frankly says. simply because he
thinks that silver republicans hold
the lalance OF power. The sharp
est criticism OF such an attitude
comes from the Pocatello Tribune,
itself an organ of the silver repub-
lican faith. The Tribune says:
The organization thus becomes
Simply a threat to two political
organizations, with both of which
IT has certain things in common.
1t places the silver republicans in
the attitude OF standing for a de.
mand for a share in the spoils
rather than representing a princi
pie which they consider vital. We
know that the rank and file of the
party will not submit to being
placed in such false position, and
that if the attempt is male the
organization and party name will
represent not a party, but simply
the title of piece Of fiction" Ii
fact the Tribune voices what is nov
very prevailing sentiment among
the rank and file of the free silve
republicans. They will refuse Il
follow a leadership and to main
tain an organization whose mani
fest purpose is to control the spoil
for the benefit Of certain ambition
individuals.

The early rains threaten the
crops in the great wheat belt lying
about Lewiston. No serious dam
age has yet been done, but the fear
is rather for the future if the fall
ing weather continues. In the
lower part of the valley the rain
catches the grain in the stack, but
higher up many acres are cut and
lying in the fields. while on the
reservation and the mountain the
grain is still standing in the field
In these Latter places the sprin &
sown grain will be helped by the
rains, but the result il too much
moisture comes now will be rank
and fallen grain and bad harvest.
The danger however is more in an
,icipatiou than In reality, for If the
weather should clear the damage to
the crop would be more than COM
pensated by the revival of pasture
under the effect of the heavy early
rains.

Mr.. Bryan is now fighting for
leadership rather than to name the
issues of the coming campaign.
Those who have followed his latest

anti imperialism. He is trimming
sails to keep within sight of the

The action taken by the city
council in the matter Of furnishing
fire protection for the citizens on
the Hill was certainly wise and
progressive one. Citizens who have
already built in that part of the
city had right to expect that the
city would extend its benefits To
meet their needs. and now that 1t
has done so they will freely make
other improvements. The water
system extended to meet the new
demands placed upon it will cover
large tracts of land now not pro.
vided for, and as direct result the
several additions on the Hill will
build up rapidly, and both the city
and the water company will be
benefited by the movement. The
city has increased its property val
nations over one-quarter of a mil.
lion during the past year, but with
the projected improvements carried
out and opportunity offered to pro-
vide cheap homes there is no doubt
that the present record will be
eclipsed by the growth of another
year. !
