II AM THE STATE.

Public attention will be rlveted
upon the following part of Mr.. Nc
Kinley's letter to his brother sover-
eigns through the secretary of state,
Mr.. Hay:
1.-The purpose of the president is
to act concurrently with the
other powers fourthly, in
aiding to prevent a spread of the
disorder to other provinces and a
recurrence Of such disasters.
"The purpose not of the congress"
not OF the people, if you please, but
of the president ''The president"
and "the other powers" Certainly
no fault is to be found with this
document, written by Mr.. Hay and
revised BY the president at Canton,
o., on the score of lack of frankness.
That great imperial high mightness,
the president, will cooperate with
"the other powers not merely in
protecting American life and prop
erty, not merely in doing what
the American people, hitherto sup
posed to bear the relation to the
president of sovereign to servant, may
have authorized, but in using Amer
lean sailors and soldiers in ssaid
ing to prevent recurrence of such
disasters. I" That is, Mr.. Mckinley
will use the armies and navies of the
United States arbitrarily and without
authority in pacifying Chinal
AS contrasted with these imperial
istic, grabbing projects, without
authority of law, without sanction in
the traditions and beliefs of this
democratic people, what is our duty
in China, what is our attitude toward
its troubles and its destiny?-New
York World.

The people have an opportunity
to choose between an American
platform and one that is not. The
democratic platform upholds the i'm
mortal Declaration and stands for the
common rights Of men. 1t is not
difficult to decide which way to vote,
electors, and let us hope that pluto
cracy and imperialism shall receive a
telling rebuke at the polls this fall

public buildings of the state have
been made; the appropriations last
year were less than any year
since statehood during the legis-
lative year, and encouraged by wise
and economical state and county
governments capital and population
are pouring into the state, building
railroads, and developing the mineral,
agricultural and other varied re-
sources of the state
We pledge the people of the state
continuance and enlargement of
this wise and economical government,
and ask the hearty support of the
people of the state regardless of
previous party affiliations
We commend the efforts of Senator
Heitfeld and Representative Wilson
in behalf of the people of the state,
and we deprecate as unjust, uugenerous
and unprincipal the attempt of I'M
scrupulous politicians to claim all the
credit for the passage of the free
homes bill and the opening of the
Fort Hall reservation for Senator
Shoup.
We denounce the action of Senator
George L. Shoup in his abject be-
trayal of the interests of the people
of Idaho in voting for the gold
standard, in voting against an income
tax, and In other ways repudiatlng
the platform upon which he was elect
ed, and we call upon the people of
this state to defeat at the polls every
legislative candidate who stands for
the reelection off, Senator Shoup or
any other gold standard aspirant for
senatorial honors.
We reaffirm our devotion to the
principal of equity and justice and
condemn lawlessness in all It's forms
and guarantee to every person in the
state equal protection in and to all
the rights and privileges guaranteed
under our constitution and laws. We
also favor such amendments to our
present laws as will make compulsory
reference of all differences between
capital and labor to non partisan
board of arbitration.
We favor legislative re-appro-
tionment on a just and equitable
basis as shall be shown by the vote
and census of this year.
We favor the continuce of the
strict enforcement of the law prohibit
ing the importation oe deceased sheep
and other live stock in our state.
We are opposed to the leasing of
the public ranges to corporations or
individuals as policy antagonistic
to the interests of small farmers and
stock raisers, having tendency to
deprive them of the benefits of the
use of the same and believing they
should be free to all citizens.
We glory in the renown won by
our volunteer soldiers in their battles
for liberty and humanity, and the
democratic party will always recognize
their valiant services, and we resent
it as an aspersion on American
patriotism and an insult to American
citizenship the attempt of the repub-
llcan party to monopolize the honors
of those soldiers, and we condemn
that party's determination to convert
the fruits of their victories into
criminal aggressions.
