The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-03

Mr.. DUBOIS claims that he will
carry every county in the state but
two, and if Fred's reputation as a
political prophet were not at dis
count his claim might cause some
alarm. Here are some of his polit-
ical prophesies: In 1896 he pre-
dicted Mckinley would not receive
lOC votes in Idaho, but McKinley's
vote was $500. In 1898 he pre-
dicted that tne republican vote
would not be half what it was in
1896, but the republican vote was
more than doubled-over 1880.
Fred's predictions may always be
taken with some allows nce-the
greater part being allowance"
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-03

In 1896 the silver republicans
declared that they left the parent
party on the silver issue alone, and
said that as soon as that ceased to
be paramount issue they expect
ed to return to the party. In 1900
they appear in an entirely different
attitude. They come now in a plat
form antagonistic not only to the
republican financial policy, but to
all the old time planks of republic
canisn. Even SO late as 1898 the
silver republican platform declared
for expansion. This year it is
anti-expansion and anti everything
that it stood for in 1896, except
silver, The result is that today
silver republicanism is democracy
In everything but name. 1t is
here that there comes another
partlng OF the ways" Those who
were sincere in their declarations
in 1896 are mostly back in the
republican party. A few are vet
hanging on the ragged edge of
indeoision-many of them held
back by a feeling of false pride
about returning home to the parent
whose roof they had spurned in
day of bad counsel. TO all such
we say, hesitate no longer the
parent party welcomes you as any
natural parent does a wondering
son, and you will be recognized
and received within the party on
the same plane as all republicans
according to your standing as
good citizen.
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-03

The republican platform so far
as it relates to the Occur d. Alenes
is a clear declaration for good
government and the lawful exercise
of lawful lights snd powers. The
republican party, not only by its
platform, but by its past record,
can be depended upon to protect
life, liberty and property. 1t
pledges itself that any mans right
to seek honest employment shall
not be curtailed nor in serfered with.
These are sound governmental
principles which no man will have
the hardihood to dispute. What is
the present position of the demo-
cratic party on these issues?
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-03

MANY Idaho democrats are cry
ing out in dispair, "Where am
at?" The national platform de-
clares against miitarism, but here
at home the state convention refuses
10 have the party associate with a
PARTY that would relieve American
citizens from martial law and give
honest labor freedom to seek en-
ployment The Idaho democrat
must go through the campaign
shedding crockodile tears for the
PHILIPPINE, but must close his eyes
to militarism at home. Great
heads-these Idaho democratic
leaders,
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-03

IT is good thing that the Dem
ocratic party has no reputation to
lose for accuracy of statement.
Facts are stubbornly against them.
They are wrong on finance. Thev
are wrong in predicting distress in
Porto Rico. They are wrong in
predicting the doom of the Repub-
lie in the event of McKinley's re-
election, and they are wrong about
Il million and half votes in their
forecasts as to the election of their
candidate in November.

PRESIDENT MCKINLEY describes
Republican Imperialism as follows:
"To the rarty cf Lincoln has co ne
another supreme opportunity which
it has bravely met in the Liberation
of 100000 of the human family
from the yoke of imperialism"
The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1900-08-03

Col. GooDE "also ran" but Capt.
Graham had no trouble in getting
a nomination for congress by accla-
nation. Here is food for sober
reflection, although all men will
not be able to keep sober while
rejecting upon it.

Republican Platforms,
State Platform.

ne republican party or Idaho,
in convention embed, renews its
allegiance to the principles of re-
publicanism, and declares its un-
qualified approval of the national
platform adopted at Philadelphia,
its adherence to the principles
represented by the official acts of
the administration of William
Mckinley, and pledges itself to the
support of the same.
DECLARATION ON CHINA.
a new and mementous situation
having arisen IN China since the
the meeting of the National Repub-
lican Convention, we express our
utmost confidence in the ability and
purpose of the republican party to
aettle this question upon that high
plane of craftsmanship which has
characterized every act of the pres
ent national administration. =
SUPPRESSION OF TRUSTS.
We are in favor of amending the
constitution of The United States SO
as 10 give congress the power more
fully TO regulate and suppress
trusts, and we denOunce the action
of the democratic party in the pres
ent congress who, by their votes,
defeated the proposition to submit
such an amendment to the people
of the United States for their
ratification.
EMPLOYER AND EMPLOYED
The past history of the repuh-
lican party in its record in this
state is a sufficient guarantee that
public order will be maintained
therein; that life and property will
be protected and obedience to law
enforced upon all alike through the
established forms of law; that no
man shall be deprived of life, liber-
ty.o or property without due process
of law; nor shall the right of any
man to seek and obtain or contract
for labor or employment in accord
ance with law be in anv wise cur
tailed or interfered with.
STATE ADMINISTRATION.
We condemn the policy of
the present state administration
whereby it has sought to
deprive large number of honest
settlers in the northern part of
the state of lands taken up under
the homestead laws of the United
States, and which has further re-
suited in losing to the state thous-
ands of acres of valuable timber
lands.
We condemn the policy of the
state administra ton in convert
ing the boards in control of the
various state Institutions into parti-
san political machines indirectly.
and the republican party pledges
itself to place these institutions IN
the hands of those who will con-
duct them solely for the purpose of
the public good and not in the in
terest of any political organization.
IDAHO VOLUNTEER SOLDIERS.
We remember with feelings Of
gratitude and pride the gallant and
patriotic services rendered to our
country by the brave volunteer SOL
dlers from Idaho, and glory in their
deeds of valor and faithfulness to
their call TO duty. We pledge them
the support of the republican party

County Platform.

The republicans of Kootenai
county, in convention Assem- bled
viewing with satisfaction and pride
the admirable manner in which the
republican administration has con-
Quoted the affairs of the nation
during the past three years, and
looking forward confidently to sue
cess in the approaching election,
make these declarations:
MCKINLEY AND ROOSEVELT
We affirm the principles
enunciated in the national repub-
lican platform adopted at Phila-
delphia on June 20, 1900, and
firmly pledge our support to the
same. We unquali6edly endorse
the administration Of President
William Mckinley and commend
the wise and patriotic manner in
which he has discharge evry duty
and preserved theprinciples dear 20
American people. We especially
endorse the prompt and patriotic
manner in which President Nc
Kinley has ordered the navy and
army Of the nation to proceed to
Chinese waters and to land the
marines and army on Chinese soil,
and directed the army to proceed
to Peking TO relieve oar beleagured
representatives and American
citizens within the walls of that
city,
1--WE enthusiastically endorse the
denomination of President William
Mckinley and the nomination for
vice president of Governor Theodore
Roosevelt, and firmly pledge our
earnest support to these standard
bearers.
SENATOR SHOUP ENDORSED.
We are justly proud of oar
worthy senator, Geo. l.. Shoup,
and feel that he deserves the CRATE
full esteem of the people of Idaho
for the able manner in which he
has guarded and advanced their
interests and promoted their well
fare. By his successful efforts in
the passage of the free home bill he
has saved to settlers of Kuotenai
county over three-quarters of a
dollars. In all matters
pertaining to national legislation
he has proven himself to be wise,
able and efficient senator and his
public acts merit our highest com
mendation and approval, We feel
that the state of Idaho can nof
afford to dispense with his inhug1ct
ard experience in the naS1ons 4
senate.
COUNTY EXTRAvAGkNCE.
With regrets and administration
for the unfortunate taxpayer we
condemn the incompetent and ex-
travagant methods to which the So
called reform and fusion admins
tration has treated the people OF
Kootenai county during the past
che and one-half years. We con-
slider that the amounts of salaries
paid to most of the county Officers
are too high ana should be reduced.
and that, as the current debt of the
county has been considerably in
creased, the candidates on the re-
publican ticket pledge themselves
to decrease that debt and to admin
lister the affairs CT the county in an
and business like

On With the Dance.

Immediately after the news II the
wreck Reached Governor Rogers and the
EoHIti ot July committee. Il consultation
Aa> held ami it was decided 10 hold the
palai" in spite Of the disaster.
This was done 50 as not to di>appoint
the thousands who have come from dis
taut points To- view the pageant.-Ta-
couof Vars.
II Governor Rogers" had anything
to do with the matter, nobody need be
surprised that he would refuse to fore
90 the opportunity Tor dress parade,
with himself as the central figure, de-
spite the groanS and the shricks OF the
suffering and dying. He can be seen
III the minds eye confronting this ap-
palling horror with the same "com-
placency' that he declares he views
"a judicious and well-regulated NOR
tally among the Chinese"
Yes; on with the dance; let JOY be
uncOntined, What matters it to this
temporary High Cockolorum, that
thirty-cight men, women and children
lie in the morguc, torn and shattered
from the effects of the appalling disas-
ter, or that others are dying hourly
from injuries received in the same
ovcrshadowing calamity that has
changed the quick beat of hearts o!
gladness to the slow, dull pulsations
OF unutterable woe. The martial
strains which attend the gay pageant
will drown the groans OF the suffering;
the boom of artillery overpower the
shrek of those whose agony passes the
bounds of endurance, and the gay cav
alcadc may proceed, as stated in the
announcement, Gin spite of the disas-
ter"
And the reason given in the at.
tempted justification, is it will be
noted, Elusive and irrelevant, unless
the assumption be true that "those
who came from distant points to view
the pageant" were so much more
wanting in the common impulses OF
humanity than the home-people, to
have found any disappointment in
abandonment of festivities on such q
solemn occasion. 1t would have been
mark of honor for the dead to have
wholly suspended the exercises, a to-
ken OF respect to humanity which
would have caused the whole State to
bare and bow heads in recognition of
the nobility of nature which prompted
it.
Our English cousins had no trouble
in determining the right course a few
years ago, when a carload Of visitors
were drowned by street car falling
through bridge, near Esquimalt,
during celebration of the Queens
birthday. The public demonstration
was at once suspended as a mark OF
respect to the dead and of common
courtesy to the living relatives and
friends, to say nothing of a depression
which utterly banishes the sunlight
from souls larger than a peanut.
The Admiral and officers of the
battle-ship Iowa, were In carriages,
awaiting orders to start, but immedi-
ately withdrew from the line when
the catastrophe was announced.
But his accidency has bee buzzing
in his hat, and he never loses an op-
portunity to air it, no matter how in
suspicious may be the occasion.

Seattle Spite i'll Kansas City.

\ Kansas City dispatch OF the ID
inst. says that Lee b. Hart, proxy OF
Judge W. II. White, had publicly at
tackled the candidacy OF James Ham
ilton Lewis for the second place on
the National Democratic ticket, after
the State Convention had by resolu-
ton instructed its delegation III the
strongest and most unequivocal Ian
guage to support him by all honorable
means for that position. 1t seems
unfortunate that personal spleen
should he carried to such an extent
by a PROXY OF Il State committeeman as
to antagonize the will OF the party,
expressed through its regularly con-
stltuted representatives. The Com
mitteeman is himself creature of
the same body, his name having been
suggested by the Ellensburg Conven-
ton in 1896, to replace that of Hugh
Wallace, who had developed strong
goldbug proclivities, and it seems to
us, that it was an unwise proceeding
to deputize any man as proxy who
was not in harmony with the present
will OF the party, and who he had rea-
son to believe would cast a fire. brand
into proceedings that would otherwise
have been peaceful and harmonious.
What good may be accomplished by
such proceeding is beyond the ken
OF mortal man to discover. 1t was
hardly expected that Mr.. Lewis would
secure the nomination, and to deny
him the privilege of complimentary
vote, simply because there was party
squabble in Seattle, in which Mr..
Harris delegation was turned down,
after their claims had had full and
patient hearing by the State Conven-
ton. is poor politics to say the least,
and we fear that Mr.. Harris impetuos-
ity may to some extent injure the
Judges chances for succession to the
place he now holds by favor of the
Executive.

Fourth oi July, the local Bryan Club

ever, As the convention concluded to
hold 4 celebration Of its own on that
day, before proceeding with business.
The Declaration OF Independence was
read in convention amidst the most
lively enthusiasm, by Charles Hamp-
ton, Of Michigan. When the ap-
pNause had ceased, Miss Fultoni, OF
New York, sang THE Star Spangled
Banner" the audience standing and
cheering each verse. Then the band
took up "America," and, led by the
talented songstress, 10000 people in
toned the stirring words OF My Coun-

temporary chairman.
At the afternoon session, no bust
ness was transacted, as the committees
were not ready to report. A telegram
was read from the Democrats assem-
bled in Tammany Hall, New York,
congratulating the convention on the
work in which it was engaged. II was
received with tremendous applause.
At the evening session ]. B. Rich
ardson, of Tennessee, was made Per.

OF the most admirable addresses based
upon the talismatic numbers 16 to l :

present campaign were set forth
against the one part, William J. Bry.

platform and the candidate.
1t was not till the evening OF the
9th Cat 6o'clock) that Mr.. Bryan was
formally nominated by reclamation
for President of the United States.
The announcement was received with
the most enthusiastic demonstrations
The platform submitted is sound
on the question OF finance, but makes
the first issue, very properly, opposi-
ton to imperialism, which strikes at
the very existence of the government.
A dispatch received this afternoon
announces the nomination of Adlai
Stevenson as the running-mate of Mr..
Bryan.
