In commenting on r. r. Mcfarland s
letter recently published in the julia
eta Register fusionsts are inclined to
sheer at what Bob has to say about
fusion, because he once accepted Il
nomination on the fusion ticket. They
further attempt TO belittle what he
has to say, because he was unsucccss-
ful In his fight against Steunenberg in
the democratic convention last year.
leaving the inference that his utter
ances are simply the impOtent wall of
a sore-head. They overlook the fact
that had Netherlands fight against
steuncnberg been successful last year
there might have been no fusion, at
least not with the silver republicans.
However, 1t matters little what motive
prompted the writing of that letter
by Mcfarland, the fact remains that
he gave utterance to some very potent
truths For instance who will deny
that combinations are void of prin-
ciple and serve only the purpose of
placing selfish politicians into office"
and 1T Is the duty Of every American
citizen to support President Mckinley
In the course he has pursued towards
the Philippine islands, and have no
sympathy or patience with the poll
teal dcgenerates who have endeavored
to create political issues out OF our
conflict with Spain and the resultant
difficulties IN the Philippines. re-
call to mind quite wildly the fact that
the president did not act hastily in go-
Ing to war with Spain, but proceeded
very cautiously while those whose sen
sibilities are SO shocked at our treat
ment OF the Filipinos were the loudest
In their clamor for war. Our posses
sion of the Philippine islands is re-
suit Of that war. The Philippines is
lands are ours aud II remains for con-
gress TO decide what disposition Shall
be made of them. The form of gov
eminent to be adopted there depends
entirely ON existing conditions and the
capabilities Of the inhabitants.

The smallpox scare which residents
of kootenai county were treated to
last week seems to have gone glimmer-
Ing, and from present indications no
new eases have been developed in the
locality where the one reported last
week was discovered. The child in
fected with the disease near Laclede,
which seems from reports to have been
a very mild form of the disease, died
last Saturday. Every precaution has
been taken by the authorities to pre-
vent a spread of the disease, even to
quarantining the district where the
case was discovered, and it is to be
hoped no new eases will develop. 1t
is reported the parents, whose child
died, and who are in very poor circunl-
stances. have been ordered to burn
all their belongings, even to the house
they live in in order to DESTROY all
germs of the disease.

According To Washington special
General Merriam has made his report
upon the Idaho riots. He disclaims
all responsibility for ordering the re-
f.ising ri employment to union men In
the mines. He says this regulation
was drawn UP by the state authorities
and his only connection with II was "a
llberalixe certain Of It's provisions aft
er which he plneed his name ut the
bottom with the words, examined
and approvsa." lie says Also It was
not his intention that his troops
should have any part In debating the
condition Of labor In Idaho, and they
never did vi. One other posnt which
he makes Is that the prisoners. OF

THE wHITTEcAR VERDICT.

Vas no surprise Prom the Evidence sub
mittsd TO the Jury-A sad Parting.
The verdict Of guilty in the White
car case wss to be expected from the
evidence submitted TO the jury, says
the Sharon Springs Times. In fact,
the jury could not have well done
otberwise, yet to return a verdict that
VIII drag a man away from his family
Rnd send him to the penitentiary is a
hard thing to do. In passing judgment
upon the defendant the court said it
vas one Of the painful duties that IN
der his oath be was compelled to per-
form. At the same time he called at
tention to the fact that Wallace county
is q stockraising county, and the peo-
pie had to be protected in their rights
He said It was necessary to be severe
in this case in order that others might
take warning and know what to expect
In case he was called upon to pass SEN
tence upon them. He therefore com
mitted the defendant to a term Of five
years in the state penitentiaTy at hard
labor.
Charles Whittecar is a man who had
many friends, has a loving wife and
family Of bright children, and to drag
him from the bosom of his family in
such q manner was far worse to them
than it would have been to have follow
ed him to his grave. Yet We believe
that be will outIive the stain be has
placed upon his name, and that in
time-in good time-there viii be a
family reunion as happy as the part
ing Of last Saturday was sad.
