The News and Observers Denial.

The News and Observers Denial.
In recent issue Of the News and
Observer We make the following ex-
tract from its editorials:
"This is a simple, plain, unvar-
nished lie out of the whole cloth.
Mr.. Aycock never said this. He did
not say it az Snow Hill nor any ywhere
else at any time, to any audiel ce, or
to any individual"
IL this be "PLAIN. UNvARNIsHED
LIE OUT OF THE WHOLE CLOTH" then
we suggest that the News and Obser-
yer direct it's severe adjectives in
coude mnation of the Raleigh Post,
for il was the Post that tir-t gave
circulation to Mr.. Aycock's speech.

The Caucasian Asks for the Denial.
From The CAUCASIAN Of March
22nd, in refe renee to Mr.. Aycock's
speech, we quote the following:
"This report of Mr.. Aycock's
speech was published in leading
Democratic daily. Three weeks have
passed; Mr.. Aycock has not yet de-
MED that he used the language. Is
it possible that he said itf"
Again, from the issue of this pa
per of March 10th We quote the fol-
loving
"Hon. c. B. Aycock has not yet
denied his boast that he has deter
mined to be Governor, by lawful
means, il possible, but by force and
fraud. il necessary. This statement
was reported by the Raleigh Post, a
Democratic paper. IL Mr.. Avcock

OF 1t by saying:

But Mr.. Aycock and the Observers
explanations are not conclusive. The
reporter of the Post is an honorable
man, one who would not misrepre-
sent an opponent, much less q COL

mitted-nor will he do it-that he
misquoted Mr.. Aycock.
But to substantiate what the Post

THE INDEXS CRITICISM.

Last week the Emmett Mdex
took occasion to severely criticise
County Attorney Smith for what
it is pleased to consider impropri-
cites in connection with the per-
Torrance Of his official duties. It
is unnecessary to make any de-
fence of Mr.. Smith from a legal
point OF view. Nobody suspects
the ZndeT editor of knowing more
law than is good for him, and the
general impression is that Mr.,
Smith understands his business
tirstrate. However, the Mdcx
intimates that Mr.. Smith was
working scheme to rob Emmett
out of the financial benefits Incl
dent to the crime alleged to have
been committed by one Albert
Green, and transfer the same to
Caldwell. 1t is needless to no.
tlce the contemptibleness of such
a charge, and the sufficient an
swer is that county officers no
longer receive fees for perform
ing arrests or conducting exam
nations. Mr.. Smiths course
was wholly dictated by law and a
desire to save expenses to the
county. His actions have al
ready been sustained by the dis
trlct court and probably will be
by the Supreme court, decisions
of the Mder and Emmett Justice
to the contrary Notwithstanding
A laughable part of the Ldex's
criticism is its theory that the
people of Caldwell are in CON-
splracy to rob Emmett of the
commercial benefits accruing to
it through the operation of its
criminal court. That is a great
notion. to be sure.

purpose of preventing the posi-
bility of accident, and behind
these breastworks, the Democratic
legislature. AS a matter of fact,
the whole Democratic party OF
the State of Kentucky was privi-
legged to sit in Judgment and de-
eide whether or not a Republican
candidate had been elected. Now,
when we contemplate GoebePs
assassination in the light of this
Infamous scheme to rob the ma
jority of the people of Kentucky
of their +. ; as American citi-
zens, when we realize that Goe-
bel himself was the arch scoun-
drel in the plot, our horror of the
bloody crime is essentially tenn
pered by the magnitude Of the
civil crime. If Democrats want
to use the Kentucky incident as a
campaign issue, nobody will OBJ
ject. 1t is about as good as any
of the other fool things they are
using. 1t will fit in first rate with
Aguinaldo, forest reserves, land
leasing and the rest of the fol de
rol business which is being trot-
ted out.

PROPER ENOUGH

A Boise correspondent calls our
attention to the alacrity with
which the Statesman rushed to
Governor Steunenberg's defense
when he was criticised by Mr..
Sweet the other evening. We
do not see anything in that to oc-
casion comment. We take it that
the Statesman is very friendly to
the present State administration
as a whole and Governor Steun-
enberg in particular, therefore, it
is naturally hurt at such remarks
as Willis Sweet INDUCED. Our
correspondent intimates that the
Statesman favors Steunenberg for
Senator. Perhaps it does. There
is nothing out OF the way about
that. 1t may also favor Sinclair
for Governor for all we know,
and Arney for State auditor, and
Bassett for State Secretary, and
Averitt for Attorney General, and
Hawley for Congress. Possibly,
the Statesman figures that the
Democrats will carry Idaho and
the Republicans carry the country
at large, hence it stands for DEM
ocracy at home and Republican,
ism abroad. But we do not pro-
Tess to know anything about it.
We simply know what everybody
else knows, namely, that the
StateSmH@'S relations with the
present administration would seem
to be very cordial, and, like a good
friend, it is always ready to shield
Governor Steunenberg from the
shafts of adverse criticism. 1t al
so faithfully strives to place every
act of his administration in the
most favorable light possible.
However, we see nothing inprop-
er in all this. The Statesman is
the property gifts owners. They
have a perfect right to advocate
through it what and whom they
please. They make out of it an
excellent newspaper, and they
give their opinions for what they
are worth. We do not under
stand that the Statesman processes
to be a Republican "organ." 1t
probably does not pretend to voice
Republican sentiment. 1t talks
for itself alone, and can therefore,
stand consistently upon any
ground. Thus it may, and does,
with equal propriety, support
Steunenberg and M1--1;qley.

worse beaten this year than 1t
was in 1896 or $685." That set
ties it. A Dubois prophecy is as
certain as an Irishman's dream
For 10 long years he propheSled
every morning that next day he
would compel the Republican
party to open the minis to the
free coinage of silver. In 1890
he prophesied that there would
be no Mckinley electoral ticket
put up in Idaho. In the same
year he prophesied that Teller
would be the Democratic nominee
for President, then he prophesled
a million times that Bryan would
be elected. In 1897 he prophe-
sled that the annexation of the
Hawaiian islands would ruin this
country. In 1898 he prophes'ed
that the Republican party could
not exist in Idaho, and that same
year it increased its strength from
something over 5000 to some
thing over 1900. How is that
for a record? Dubois bases his
prophecy on his "candid opinion"
that there is more love for each
other among Democrats, Popu-
lists and Silver Republicans than
ever before was. With respect
to Fred's own affections, we hope
that is true, because if his public
record does not belle the prompt
ings of his heart, he has not here
tofore bursted any blood vessels
by pressing Pops to his manly
bosom. We are glad to know
that all his prejudices have disap-
peared and that hereafter we
may expect to see him hugging
Pops until they actually pop

KENTUCKY AFFAIRS.

the people OF Idaho are directly
or even particularly concerned,
but as the Democratic party has
vociferously charged the assassin
alton of Goebel to the Republi-
can party, it is we'll enough to
know some of the facts surround
ing that deplorable affair. In Or
der to have a clear understanding,
we should 60 back a spell. In
1896, Kentucky showed an alarm
ing tendency to get squarely into
the Republican column, and the
Democrats determined that that
tendency must be checked. AS
it could not be done by fair
means, it must be done by foul.
So this man Gocbel prepared an
election law, the avowed purpose
OF which was to render Republl-
can success impossible no matter
how the people voted. 1t is I'M
necessary to explain infinitely the
Infamous provisions of the law.
Henry Watterson, editor of the
Louisville Courier Jou1nal, and
for rs years one of the most
prominent Democratic leaders in
Kentucky, and by far the ablest
Democratic writer in the country,
in a private letter to August Bel
mont, an official of the Louisville
& Nashville Railroad company,
says: "The Democratic ticket
just nominated will certainly be
elected; under the operation of
the Goebel law, the result is not
left to chance" Mr.. Watterson
wrote that letter on the goth of
last June, shortly after the Ken
lucky Democratic convention.
| The election was held in Novem-
Der last, and the returns showed
that Taylor, the Republican can
didate for governor, received be-
tween S and 6 thousand more
votes than did Goebel, the Demo-
cratic candidate. Then the Goe-
bel law was set in motion. An
appeal was taken from the count
Of the regular election boards to
a State board created for that
purpose by the Goebel law. The
Stata board, which was Demo-
cratic, had been selected by Mr..
Goebel himself, and for the ex-
press purpose of counting in
Democratic candidates. "The
result was not to be left to
Chance" as Henry Watterson
frankly said. The State board,
however, proved to be less cor
rupt and pusillanimous than Goe-
bel and the Democrats supposed.
After throwing out every Rcpub-
lican precinct where there was
the slightest technical irregularity
and throwing out every Republi-
can vote that showed a color of
dubiety; and, on the other hand,
counting every Democratic vote
that could be raked and scraped
together, the State board still had
on its hands a Republican major
lty of between 2 and 3 thousand.
Then that Democratic board told
Mr.. Goebel that it would go no
further; that the Republican can
didates were elected beyond the
possibility of question, and there
was nothing to do but issue them
certificates, which was done. But,
as Mr.. Watterson said, the result
was not to be left to chance. The
case was then given over to a
Democratic legislature, and in so
far as any principle of justice is
concerned, it might as we'll have
been given to d Democratic eau

LOOKS LIKE JossINa.

Elsewhere is printed an extract
from an article written by Charles
Leary, a well -known labor agitat-
Or. It brings out in bold relief
some strong points, but is mainly
significant as disclosing a political
trend respecting which nothing is
known in this section of Idaho.
Mr.. Leary says that "more than
5000 labor votes are in arms
against Governor Steunenberg"
and that in the next campaign the
real struggle will be between the
Republican party and the Labor
party. While we suspect that
Mr.. Leary has exaggerated the
situation, yet those who are most
familiar with conditions in North
Idaho confess that the Labor par
ty there is a powerful factor.
That it will solidly oppose Steun-
enberg and the Democratic party
there can be no question. That
this fact has materially soltcned
Steunenberg towa' DIS the Nor
mons is scarcely to be doubted.
Mr.. Leary also brings out an
other point which should not es-
cape attention. He says that
Steunenbsrg, "talkeh himself red,
black and green in the face over
the ruthless way Grover Cleve-
land sent the soldiers of the fed
eral army into a sovereign State
to murder poor workingmen-
trampling the great Constitution
in the DUST Well, he went into
the trampling business himself in
the Cnur d'Alenes." That is a
correct statement of the case.
Further, Mr.. Leary says, che
(Steunenberg) has extended the
infamous permit system so as to
include men who own their own
claims, aad thus drove the voters
from the State" In the last
month or six weeks there have
been constant rumors and many
direct assertions that Gov
ernor Steunenberg was using the
permit system to drive his politi-
cal opponents out of the State,
and it begins to look as though
there was at bottom some consid-
cradle truth. Now, The TRlB-
UNE wants it distinctly understood
that it holds no sympathy with
the criminal element in the Min
Grs' Union or elsewhere. Every
man who went to the Bunker Hill
and Sullivan mills with intent to
destroy property should have
been punished; but that crime is
no justification for an equally
monstrous one. We have from
the first suspected the so-called
permit system, which, in word,
makes it impossible for any work.
ingman to exist in Shoshone
county without the consent of
Governor Steunenberg. We un-
derstand that workiagman is not
even allowed to ask for work I'M
less he gets permission from Gov.
Steunenberg. We cannot see the
necessity or justiii cation for that
kind of thing, and We do not be-
lieve it is altogether an honest
proposition, coming, as it does,
from a man who, it is said, prom
ised in 1896 to disband the State
militia of Shoshone county. In
the inception of Governor Steun-
enberg's movement to crush out
the Occur d'Alene gang of dyna-
miters, we heartily applauded his
sudden and unexpected attach
ment to law and order. But the
