More Imperialism

EDITOR FREE PREss:-In last
week. issue of The Standard under
the head of 'Precinct Officers" l
find the following concerning the
republican candidates for justices
of the peace:
"The people are to be congratu-
lated that these men are willing to
accept the positions"
The way these nominations we're
made indicates that it did not re-
quire persistent urging to induce
one OF the candidates to accept.
At the republican county conven-
ton John f. Jaques was elected
member Of the county committee
for Grangeville precinct. A resolu-
ton was then adopted authorizing
the committeeman from each pre-
cinct to name the precinct officers
for his precinct, and Jaques
promptly nominated himself for
Justice Of the peace. If his legal
capacity equals the capacity Of his
gall, it seems to me he should be
on the U. s. supreme court bench
instead of struggling for the office
of j. p. A REPUBLICAN.

Roosevelt and the Farmers.

In 1883 Theodore Roosevelt
wrote a book. 1t was called
"Ranch Life and the Hunting
Trail,' and pnrported to give an
account of his experiences in the
west. 1t was issued by the Cent
ury Publishing Company; and can
be found in most public libraries.
On page 10 of this work Theo-
dore Roosevelt gives the following
summing up Of his opinion of the
cowboys Of the western ranges:
"Whsn drunk ON the villainous
whisky of the frontier town they
(the cowboys) cut mad antics, rid
ing their horses into the saloons,
firing their pistols right and left,
from boisterous light-heartedness
rather than from any viciousness;
and indulging too often in deadly
shooting ARRAYS, brought on either
by the accidental contact Of the
moment or on account Of sume long
standing grudge. 4 = = They are
much better fellows and pleas'.ntel
companions than small farmers or
agricultural laborers; nor are the
mechanics and workmen Of great
city to be mentioned in the same
breath"
The same words can be found in
Mr.. Roosevelt's article on "Rancf
Life in the Far West" on pagt
582 of the Century Magazine fol
February, 1888.
The farmers and mechanics viii

PEoPLE's PARTY HEADQUARTERS.
Boise, Idaho, 8, 1900.
To the Peoples Party voters of
Idaho:
Our purpose in giving the public an
authorized statement at this time, is
simply that of making our position
clear upon the political questions
that are now before the people for
solution. There have been so
many contradictory statements in
the press, and SO many different
opinions as to the position of the
populist party in the state cam
paign, that VIC deem it necessary
to have an authorized statement
from those who know the facts.
The one thing desired by the
populists OF this state is the cleo
ton OF Bryan to the presidency.
To that end and with it only in
view, they are in favor of forming
a close aud harmonious union with
the democrats and silver republi-
cans in this campaign. They
favor the return of someone to the
United States senate who is not in
sympathy with tho policy of the
republican party, and they also
desire the triumph Of the fusion
state ticket in this state. We
make this statement deliberately
because we are in touch with the
rank and file Of our party, and we
know whereof we speak.
Our purpose has been to form an
harmonious fusiOn of all the silver
parties. With this end in view it
has been our desire to see an agree
ment between the three silver
psrties whereby the nominees of
the three parties should be the
same. Before entering into
negotiations with the democrats
we secured the opinion of every
leading populist in the state, and
through our committeeman felt the
pulse Of the populist vote. The
