Patrles Opinion.

The Poeatello Advance has had
an interview with Mart Patrie, and
among Other things the secretary of
state is reported as saying: "The
state officials here are fulfilling their
pledge to the people. The governor
has no equal for honor and honesty
in the whole United States. He is
a worthy example Of integrity and a
fit representative of the people for
his interest is common with theirs.
The state has never hxda more eco
nomical administration"

appendicitis. Our HALEY cop

Put Down the War.

Put Down the War.
LONDON. Dec. 1o.-The war office
last evening could give no Information
regarding the reports OF q Boer invasion
OF Cape Colony. Tho officials expressed
the opinion. however, that the news
paper accounts were exaggerated and
that probably the troops who have been
employed In chasing General De Wet
will be diverted to deal with the Invad-
ers. Having regard to the customary
methods Of the war Office, this can only
be Interpreted as confirming the reports.
Lord Kitchener, in the meantime,
Keeps a tight rein over the news, which
increases the public disquietude. There
is q persistent rumor that he has de-
naanded heavy reinforcements,
f According to the Daily Mail, private
kilograms received in London yesterday
depict the situation in, Cape Colony as
somewhat ominous. It seems that the
invading Beers are receiving considera-
BILE assistance from the local Dutch and
that the troops ut the disposal OF the
British authorities are not sufficient to
cope with any serious spread OF the mil
itary operations.
1t ia believed that the government has
at last awakened to the seriousness OF
the situation and is making the utmost
efforts to provide Lord Kitchener with
horses and mules, ~

this request was made by several sen.
ators, including Messrs. Hoar, yelling.
ton and Bacon and Senator Lodge. with
the hope OF removing the objections

the terms OF the negotiations. He 5ea-
planned that the islands are comprised
in the Philippine group, and said they
were supposed to have been ceded by
Spain in the Paris treaty and the
United States had taken possession OF
the islands under this supposition.
Both Cut Out.
TWAS soon found. however. that the
definite line OF our acquisition fixed by
the treaty cut them both out. It is a
rule OF law, he explained. that definite
boundary description y always super
sedes an, indefinite description. Hence,
in order to leave no doubt,of our owner
ship the treaty. for the. cesslon OF these
islands had been negotiated and he be-

lleved that the United States would be
saved much trouble in the future by
consummating the bargain. He char
acterlzed the proceeding as in the ma
ture Of title quletlng process. MIR.
Lodge also called attention to the fact
that one of the islands is directly on
the line of communication with Borneo
and the straits and he drew the icon-
clusion that some day itimight be i'm
portant as a cable station. +.
Senators Hoar and Bacon said. they
should like to have more time to con-
slider the question, and Senator Well
ington made unqualified objection.
Accordingly the treaty was laid aside
for the time being.

old faith with that fighting enthusiasm
that foretokens Democratic triumph.
AS new conditions arise, our principles
must be applied to them; but in the
creed that has guided us through a cen
tury of party existence we shall find the
key to every such application; nor shall
we need the lexicon OF Populism to aid
us in Interpreting this creed"

ernment for protecting itself in the ex-
ercise Of Its functions against violent
obstruction within state"

Further on he declares:
II believe no Democrat will have the
hardlhood o,deny that we have fought
our last two campaigns In alliance with
.undemocratlc forces and that this allI-
ance was immensely costly In defeat.
Is there not good reason to suppose that
even In success such an alliance would
have proven improbable and danger
ous."
He breaches the return of Democracy
10 Its old faith, saying:
Sincere Democrats OF every condition
and in every part OF the. land realize
that the situation OF the party needs
repair. Reorganlzationis is not necessary
but a return from our wandering is alb
solutely essential. Let US be frank
with ourselves and candidly acknowl-
edge the futility Of attempting to gain
Democratic victories except In the DEM
ocratlc cause and through Democratic
methods. RecrimInation is worse than
useless: and the arrogatlon OF superior
party virtue will breed only mischief.
This is time for sober thought. toler-

a party that cannot be destroyed by ex-

imperishable. Above all things, there

Democracy will not operate efficiently
on sectional lines.
There is much for US to do: and the
future is full of Democratic duty and
opportunity. Our fighting forces will
respond listlessly and falteringly II
