We OBJ erve in press dispatches
the disturbances occasioned by
audiences at the various Speeches
made all over the country by
prominent republicans. We also
observe that thcs dispatches
chronicle the sane outrageous and
ungentlemanly condn''t by audi
ences composed principally of col
lege students of the most promi
nent colleges in the L. S. to which
w. j. Bryan has spoken and been
insulted, 1t certainly is deplor
able when young men of brains
and the representatives OF the best
families and attending colleges
stoop to these low practices. II is
"a fitting comparison of the different
arguments used by campaign
speakers for law and order, espec-
tally when Roosevelt denounces
the democratic party as the author
of anarchy. We would question
which is the more serious.
Notices have been posted in

Denver Democratic club as follows:

School Notes.

County Supt. Elsensohn visited
our school last week.
Mabel Graham, May Smith and
William Mann have entered the
high school.
Mr.. Granville is teaching class
in grammar for the backward stu
dents.
New singing books have been
purchased for the literary society.
The teachers met Monday even.
ing and decided to try the "noon
recess plan" In the primary
grades there is short intermission
in place of the regular recess, and
at different times during the day
five minutes are devoted to march,
ing and calisthenic exercises. In
the grammar grades and the high
school calisthenic exercises are
given regularly both morning and
afternoon. School is dismissed
twenty minutes earlier In the af-
ternoon, and SO the pupils are not
kept in the school any longer than
formerly. All the larger schools
of the state are adopting this plan,
and principals and teachers every
where seem to be in favor Of it.
The teachers took a vote in the
several dedartments and large
majority of the pupils voted in ia
Yer of the new plan. Diminishing
school twenty minutes earlier In
the afternoon seemed to appeal to
a great many of them.

Teddy,s lncon sistency.

tS0oy . itiSOib 30 eO'iSys
GRANGEviLLE, Idaho, Oct. "a.
To THE FREE Press -
In his speeches back in the cas-
tern states Theodore Roosevelt, re-
publican nominee for vice presi-
dent, justifies the forcible annexa-
ton OF the Philippine Islands by
citing the treatment of the Indians
in the United States as an instance
of government without the "Coi-
sent Of the Governed"
The illustration is very far-fetch-
cd and not at all appropriate to the
policy of criminal aggression"
now being pursued by the republic
cans towards our former allies in
the Philippines.
First, the Indian is condition
sui generis, and is recognized as
such in the constitution of the
United States Although savage
he has a government Of his own,
with which the United States en-
1, RS into solemn treaties The ii.
tie of the Indian to ths soil was
not extinguisbcG by the treaties
made with France or Spain, but
remained and was subs quently
acquired by the United States hy
treaty with he several Indian
tribes. 'lhc acquisition Of the
coded lands on our own Nez Perez
reservation is n case in point.
The cessiun of these surplus lands
to the government Of the United
States was made after the negotia-
ton of solemn treaty with the
Nez Perces, by the terms of which
the United States agreed to give
the Nez Perces So 70 per acre for
the land thus acquired.
Furthermore, any one who has
ever given the Indian subject any
study is aware that the Indians
have carried on war and made
peace with IndiaI of rival tribes,
without any interference from the
government of the United States;
and even making war against the
United States the Indian is treated
as warning nation and not as IL
rebel. The Indians thus cOnsti-
tute a government within a govern
ment. The constitution of the
United States expressly recognized
them as Indians not taxed"
They maintain their own form of
tribal government, their own
courts for the trial Of their own
criminals who violate their own
Indian codes, and their own police
for the apprehension Of offenders.
If the Filipino or Porto Rican
is not a citizen is he to be treated
as an Indian? Is he to be per-
mitted to retain his tribal organic
alton? Is he to be an "Indian not
taxed" and not to be taxed? And
what is to become of him in those
portions of the Philippine territory
not under tribal organization? IL
he to be subjected to taxation in
support OF a government in which
he has no voice, to the jurisdiction
of tribunals and TO a system of
laws foreign to his nature9
Governor Roosevelt would better
try again to mislead the people.
The frozen fact remains that the
treaty with Spain is the first assert
ion by this government that gov
ernments do not derive their just
powers from the consent of the
governed, and hence the republi-
can party has distinctly repudiated
the fundamental principle in the
American Declaration of Ipde-
pendencc.
Yours in the democratic faith,
Aaron +. PARKER.

IT LOOKS NOW LIKE
FIGHT TO A FINISH.
Another Meeting of Cotton Growers is
Called.
TO PROTECT THEIR INTERESTS
President Jordan Again Calls Upon
Farmers, Bankers and Business Men
to Organize. Success in This Great
Fight Means Millions.

Sumter county has an organization
of cotton growers which has the SYM
pathy and support of the business in
terests of Americas, but in some coun-
ties organization has not been effected
and to these especially President Jor-
dan, of the State Association, issues an
address which is of interest TO all alike
in the organized fight to be made
against the cotton sharks this year.
His call to business men, bankers
and farmers, is as follows;
ST have deemed it best to issue call
asking the cotton growers and business
men generally of the state to come to-
gether at their various county seats on
the first Tuesday in September for the
purpose of completing sub-organiza-
tions of our association in the different
counties. A large number of counties
have already organized and many more
have named dates to come together in
the near future.
''The farmers have 1t absolutely in
their power to control the situation at
present, and efforts should be made to
aid them in the struggle for better and
higher prices, More than Sl5, 900, 00O
can be saved to the Georgia farmers if
they receive 10 cents per pound for
their cotton, which will be lost if they
rush the crop on the market aud sac
rifice it at Z cents.
''The members of the Georgia State
Agricultural Society IN convention at
Dublin last Thursday, unanimously
Endorsed the effort of our association
in behalf of the cotton producers and
agreed to give their active cooperation
to the movement in making the present
undertaking a success this season.
''The Georgia bankers had already
guaranteed their willingness and abili-
! ty to aid the members Of the assocla-
ton as to advancing money on cotton
in storage which would enable the
producers to market the crop slowly.
"The cotton mills of the South are
with us, and ali the lines of business
trades and professions are willing to
lend helpful hand toward securing
for the farmers q higher price for
their staple.
eff the crop is marketed slowly, we
may confidently look for 10 cent cotton
by the first of October, and to that end
we must all combine our efforts and
take determined stand against allow
ing the crop to be sacrificed at cents
per pound, which the spectators are
industriously trying to force upon
our people"

BEARS TO SHOW THEIR TEETH.
VIII Act Together to Squeeze The
Cotton Market.

And now there comes from the camp
of the bears" that element that
would squeeze the farmer to death and
prevent him getting fair price for his
cotton, the news of combine" for
the purpose of cutting off a demand
for cotton just as it is being marketed.
But the little scheme, it is thought,
will hardly work now.
1t is said that towing to the high
price OF cotton many of the mills will
shut down for several weeks" The
Boston Manufacturing Co.. of Wal
than, Mass, will shut down for sew
eral weeks, while the textile manufac-
turers in all New England have agreed
to curtail production through August
and September.
As the Times-Recorder sees it, a
game of freezeout is to be played be-
tween these New England mill owners
and the farmers of the cotton belt
They have virtually agreed to sus-
pend business, in a great measure,
until the price of cotton suits them.
Millions of bales will be marketed in
August and September, and they hope
by staying out of the market to squeeze
prices and get cotton at their figures.
But right here the plan of the South
ern Cotton Growers Association will
materially assist the farmers.
They will not throw their cotton on
the market, to be sold at a sacrifice,
but with the cooperation of the mer-
chants and bankers will draw upon it
as they need money and make a sale of
it when the mills finally break their
trust and begin supplying their needs.
Freezeout is little game that two
can play at sometimes.
