that Mr.. Hutchinson seemed most
prone to forget was the real pow
er and authority in him vested;
and we suggest to him, for the
benefit of future presiding officers,
that whenever an officer, or any
one else, is backed by legal au-
thority and physical power suffi-
cient to enforce his DEGREES, the
least show of passion or the slight
est tone of vociferation is need
less and strangely unbecoming.
In contrast, Mr.. Evans was hand
icapped from the beginning. He
was obliged to make a campaign
for the speakership. This
brought on entangling alliances.
He was driven to seek support
from the governor and the gov
ernor gives nothing without
promise of "reciprocal favors. "
The governor made Mr.. Evans
speaker upon the understanding
that the speaker should be entire
ly subserVient to the governor.
Mr.. Evans did not know how
much of deceit and juggling and
humiliation that meant. He did
not know the depth and breadth
OF the sacrifice he was expected
to make. He did not know that
Mr.. Steunenberg was attempting
to introduce and apply for his
own benefit the legal fiction that
the king can do no wrong-that
every virtue proceeds from the
throne, every vice from the min
lister. When Mr.. Evans came to
know all this, he began to grow
reStive-he rebeIled in his heart
and finally revoIted. Then the
governor proceeded to crush him
as a diSobedient subordinate. and
the governor succeeded-tempor-
arily. In consequence, Mr.. Ev-
ans is now enjoying vicarious
punishment. Moreove, Mr.. Ev-
ans never possessed the conf |
dencc Of the house. He was
known to have no sympathy with
the silver Republicans and he
was believed to be very shaky
on free coinage. He was from

Mr.. Hutchinson, but in fact is no
less so. But what Mr.. Hutchip-
son would accomplish by open
and violent energy, Mr.. Evans
would encompass by tinesse. Mr..
Hutchinsou's imperiousness is
bold and frank. Mr.. Evans dog
matism is quiet and crafty. Po-
litically, and we speak in no other
sense, Mr.. Hutchinson is cordial
ly sincere, Mr., Evans is coldly
calculating, Though their pur-
poses were identical, their meth
DDS would be radically different.
They are both superior men and
will be very likely to make them
selves felt in affails of state be-
fore many years pass by. In
crossing swords with them Gov
ernor Steunenberg will find that
he has encountered men of met
tle-men whose positions in life
and whose native abilities will
give them commanding influence.

PRESIDENT AND SPEAKER

A considerable number of state
papers have made comparison
between Lieutenant-G Governor
Hutchinson, president of the state
senate, and Hon. D. L. Evans,
speaker of the house of repreSen-
tatives, and invariably to the Diet
riment of the latter. There has
been in the criticism an element
Of unfairness, resulting, not from
the unreasonable prejudice of the
critics, but from circumstances
with which they were unacquaint-
ed or did not properly appreciate.
1t is, however, true that there en-
lists against Mr.. Evans a degree
of prejudice growing out of his
well known gold standard pro-
eIivlties and this may incline his
critics to severity. But it must
be remembered that the two men
were very differently situated.
Hutchinson was president of the
senate by virtue of his office as
ieutenant-governor, and, there
fore, assumed the gavel without
becoming obligated to any faction
upon the floor or arousing the an
tagonism which inevitably results
from a contest for the speaker
ship of the house. Hutchinson
was recognized as a silver Re-
publican in the best sense of the
term; that is, thoroughly Repub-
hcan IN every respect except upon
the one question of free coinage. |
This gave him the loyal support
of the silver Republicans and tie
sympathies of the straight Repub-
cans, and the combined sentiment
of the Republican factions dom
mated the senate. Another thing
which contributed to the cordial ,
feeling towards Mr.. Hutchinson
was his known unfriendliness to-
wards Governor Steunenberg's
political schemes because of which.
a coldness, almost liquid in it's in
,ensity, existed between the two
men. This placed Mr.. Hutchin-
son in an untrammeled and indie
pendent position, and gave full
play to his naturally fair and open
disposition. Known to be indie
pendent, inclined generally to be
candid and fair, he was enabled
It times to be rather dogmatic
giving lasting ofense.
There was, however, an impetu-
'Slty and imperiousness in his
manner which under less favora-
lie circumstances might have
worked his downfall. The thing

JUST A THOUGHT

The effort which the citizens
of Caldwell have recently made
to secure the erection of first
class grist mill at this place is
highly commendabIe. We I'M
derstand that they propose to pay
a bonus of $4,000 to the party
promising to build the mill, he
contracting to put in plant that
shall cost $4,000 and maintain
it in constant operation for a pc
Rod of not less than five years.
We believe the bulk of the sub
scription has already been secur-
ed and that there is little doubt
but that the whole may be had.
In this connection thought has
occurred to us. Suppose the
party with whom the Caldwell
people have been negotiating
should for some reason or anoth-
er fail to carry out his part of the
arrangement-Suppose that right
now he should drop the enter
prise--may it not be possible to
make an equally satisfactory ar
rangement with some one else?
1t has sometimes seemed to us in
looking over the substantial inn
provements and beneficial enter
prises situated in some neighbor-
hoods, that to the people of the
locality-the old settlers--is due
practically all the credit for such
improvements and enterprises.
Here, in Caldwell, who was it
that erected brick blocks? Who
bullded the churches and the
schools? Who are the merchants
and the bankers? Whose mon
ey established a creamery? 1t
seems to us that what is meant
when we speak Of foreign CAPT
tall" has had little--very little
to do with the actual growth and
enterprise of this town. So it is
of most other towns. Well, to
come back to the grist mill. Up
there at Middleton is magnii-
cent water power; there is the
nucleus for a first class mill.
Possibly one of the principal rea-
sons why that mill is not entirely
satisfactory and all sufficientis the
lack of capital. A few thousand
dollars put into that plant-as an
investment--might serve every
purpose that is now sought to be
accomplished by a donation of
$4,000. Possibly that much mon
ey would inject such life and &C
tivity and perfection into the Mid
dleton Mill as to make it a COM
plete success. This is only a
thought. i may be utterly i'm
practicable, but from some exper-
fence in related industry, we are
forced to conclude that a good
water power is mighty advan-
age.

THE so-CalIed anti-fusion bill,
which was vetoed by the COVER
nor with such suddenness as to
cause the capitol clock to stop,
was a most excellent measure,
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1899-03-11

earnestly contemplated more ras-
cality than they could accomplish.
The men of real capacity were in
hopeless minority. AS might be
expected, the well-dispUsed but
simple minded were almost as
frequently victimized by the ras-
Gals as well directed by natural
instinct or superior ability. The
power of the INSCRIPTIONS was
manifest in the passage of such
measuIe s as the river improve
ment bill, the game warden bill,
the immigration commissioner bill,
the code commission bill and 9TH
ers of similar import, the whole
object of which was to make COM
Portable places for administration
pets, and to further political ends.
The weakness of the rascaIs and
the natural propensities of the ma
jority are exhibited in the irriga-
ton law, the anti-gambling law
and the fusion bill which was
so unceremoniously vetoed by the
governor. The question arises,
how could those naturally good
mel be influenced to do the things
that are evil? Mems minds are
warped by their desires. Three
fourths of the members had pet
local measures to carry through.
Their people demanded it and
those members felt that if they
failed they would be forever con-
demned. The Latah delegation
were expressly charged to secure
a liberal appropriation for the
state university and from the be-
ginning to the end of the session
worked exclusively to that end.
The Nez Perez delegation had
the Normal school to look after;
the Bannock delegation wanted
normal and the Cassia county
delegation feared they would lose
one, and so it was throughout the
membership of both houses. The
senators and representatives were
charged on peril of provoking the
extreme displeasure of their con-
stituency and inviting political
ruin to secure certain things and,
incidently, not to be over particu-
lar about the means. These
OF themselves were in
many instances mcritorious, but
they formed the bases for all
kinds of legislative trading. The
man with an immigration bureau
graft had votes to give the man
who wanted a normal school; the
man with a game warden bee in
ais hat had support for the fellow
who wanted the state to buy him
I toll road, and the Coterie of in
,ompetents who wanted code
commission jobs had votes for
he friends of the state university.
The result of it was that a bad !
measure, unless palpably and no. t
oriously vicious, stood just as ,
good a chance as a good measure. {
This should teach the people not s
O bind their representatives to the {
accomplishment of any specific {

ONE OF THE ROUGH RIDERS.
How Frank Blake Morse Knocked Out .
Bowery Concert Hall Bouncer.

How Frank Blake Morse Knocked Out .
Bowery Concert Hall Bouncer.
Frank Blake Morse, who sailed on
the Roumanian recently to join Colonel
Roosevelt's rough riders, was known
by every college man in the United
States several years ago as Princeton
bucking half back. Mr.. Morse was in
the class of 80 at Princeton, and he
was considered one of the best football
men that ever wore the orange and
black. Since leaving college Mr.. Morse
has returned to Princeton every fall to
train the eleven. Several years ago.
while he was an undergraduate, Mr..
Morse, with half a dozen other Prince
ton men, entered a concert hall on the
Bowery where there was lung testing
machine. The bouncer of the place in
vited the young men to test their lungs
and when it came Morse's turn he blew
the indicator clear around the circle to
the point which indicated the ma.
chimes limit, and there it stuck, to the
amusement of the crowd and the dis.
gust of the bouncer.
"You must pay for that machine"
said the bouncer.
"Oh, nor' said Mr.. Morse gently.
"It was not my fault that it was weak, "
and he started out with his friends.
Mr.. Morse's youthful appearance led
the bouncer to believe that he could
bulldoze him, so he overlook him and
grabbed his coat collar. 1t is probable
that the bouncer did not know what
had struck him. One blow from the
Princeton man landed him at the bot.
tom of flight of stairs and put him
out Of action. The day before he sailed
Mr.. Morse said:
Ever since war was declared / have
been anxious to 90 to the front Every
one of my old friends who has met me
has expressed surprise that | had not
enlisted. | recently received my fathers
permission, however, and now am go.

Mr.. Morse is an expert horseman, and
for that reason he wanted to JON the
rough riders. Moreover, he will have
an opportunity i'll that organization to
serve with some Of the Harvard and

That there are two sides to every ques-

Illustrated by the suit brought by II. w.

of Minneapolis. Mr.. Phelps, the father,
who is defendant in the case, naturally
objects to the case being presented on the
charges contained in the complaint, and
his side of the controversy was given
yesterday by Judge Jamison, who has
been retained to defend the case.
This suit has been instituted" said
Judge Jamison, by a son whose habits
have already cost his father. the defend
ant in this case, $50, GOO. This action has
been brought for the purpose of trying
to force his father, the defendant in this
action, to divide property which he holds
as administrator of his fathers estate
contrary to the terms Of that father s
will Mr.. Phelps has refused to do that
and the result is this suit
Mr.. helps proposes to keep the prop
erty of his fathers estate intact, because
the will SO requires, and it is simply be
cause of his refusal to violate that will
that the disappointed son has instituted
the action. The property in Mr. Phelps
hands will be properly accounted for The
accounts of Mr.. Phelps as trustee of this
property are complete. and if the case
