There is something farcical in
the contention made by the Ken
lucky democrats that in Louisville
they were intimidated by the
presence OF militia at the polls. A
Kentucky gentleman intimid tied
by a little gun play within the
borders of the dark and bloody
groundl Perish the thought. This
is surely case Of degenerate sons
Of sapient sires.

Dewey has now had taste OF
the bitter with the sweet. He has
learned how fickle a thing is the
worship of the multitude. The
hero OF Manila made misstep in
the management of a delicate mat.
ter purely matter of sentiment
yet sentiment dear just now to
the heart of the people. 1t is
hardly the proper thing to treat a
gift lightly. The giver has n
sentiment there that is easily
wounded. But the matter Is only
Of passing notice. The Great
Admiral should not treat il toe
seriously.

Where IS Wilson p?

.
silver forces and the shifting of
leaders in the political arena some
one has sprung the question. what
will be the alignment of Eigar
Wilson. congi essman from Idaho?
The platform upon which he stood
for election proclaimed him a re.
publican in everything except the
81 yer question, but he owes his
election TO democrats and his
alignment in congress will largely
depend upon what he thinks of
that obligation. Just here it will
be interesting 10 note what his
friends think will be his position.
The following from the PocatelIo
Tribune gives clear analysis of
what the silver republicans think
of the Obligations under the
alliance:
Congressman Edgar Wilson
has left for Washington and he
will not return to Idaho until af er
the expiration of the coming
session of Congress We have a
very high regatd for Mr.. Wilson,
esteeming him not only for his
admira lie personal qualities as a
man and citizen but Tor his abilities
and energy as a public official. He
represented Idaho in Congress
from 1894 to 1896 and did so mos,
crediiabiy. Mr.. Wilson was then
IN harmony with his party--the
Republicans. This year he goes
back to Congress still a Republi-
can, but Silver Republican.
His election was a protest against
the Republican financial policy, -
against the gold standard idea
He Is, SO far as we know The only
Silver Republican who will sit in
the present Congress and, unless
he dicides upon utilization with
one or the other of the national
parties, he will be more lonesome
in Washington than was Louis
de Rougemont on the narrow strip
OF sand upon which he spent the
first years of his long exile. While
Democratic votes assisted in Mr..
Wilson's election, such votes were
not cast under any impression that
he was a Democrat but simply be.
eau c non Democrat votes were ex-
pected (and were delivered) for
Democratic candidates. II was a
fair exchange, in which no one
was deceived. Mr.. Wilson is, il,
fact, not a Democrat, nor any
place near one. He is an arden,
expansionist and a hot protec.
ZIONIST. On all questions, excep,
the silver question. his sympathies
are all with the Republican party.
Tha, he ever acted with the Dem.
ocratic party is entirely due to the
impression that it was a silver
party. That impression is be.
ginning to wane. Today i, is
hardly possible to call the De.
mocracy silver party and il viii
be very hard for Mr.. Wilson t,
fluid any common ground with thai
party. His sympa,ies, political a.
well as personal. are with the Re
publicans in Congress and WE
would earnestly recommend hin
not to allow an out-of-date senti
ment to prevent his utilization with
his fellow Republicans in Congress.
in the interests both of car able anc
progressive national government
aud of the advancement of the Stat,
OF Idaho.

Besides natural and routine difficulties

to cope with mandarin intrigues. vii

assaulted near Pekin, has had many
similar experiences during the dozen
years he has been railroad building ir
the Chihil province. and has only ex'
tricated himself by dint OF tact, plucl
and good humor. He has for year.
practically carried his life in his hand

from running off, which. as theee were

the foreign employees were constantly

About dozen years ago, when Texas
needed n new state capitol, the Legisia-

OF unappropriated land would be given
