Mr.. and Mrs. Dcwcy'~ First Quarrel
w. Z. Curtis in Chicago Record: Adj
miral and Mrs. Dewey have had their
first quarrel. The bride told party
of her friends about it Saturday, and
every one in town will know it before
tomorrow night. 1t began by the adj
miral insisting, as all men do on occa-
sion, that his wife wear rubbers. She
refused to do so because it made her
feet look so large and clumsy, and
they disputed until both grew very
much excited, when the admiral de-
clared that if Mrs. Dewey did not wear
her rubbers he would no longer take
tonic that the doctor had prescribed
for him at her suggestion. With tears
in her eyes she surrendered and has
worn rubbers ever since.

JUDGE STAMFORD made one sug
gestion in his speech here Monday
night that clearly indicates his
breadth of character. He advised
his republican friends to 60 out
and hear the democratic speakers
as well as the republicans. That
is right. There is no sense in that
narrow bgotry that will not toler-
ate listening to both sides Of the
discussion. Let us have none
of it in Bonners Ferry. If all
Bonners Ferry would go out and
listen to the distinguished gentle
men on both sides, who will speak
here this fall, and digest what they
hear without prejudice, they
would acquire great deal of vslu-
able knowledge about public affairs
and be better able to discharge the
responsible duties of citizenship.

Hon. RALPH I. MORGAN was

for county attorney at the recent
meeting of the county central COM
mittee. Mr.. Morgan has been a
resident Of this state for 20 years,
and has practiced law for 10 years.
He located in Harrison early this

blemish. He is rated as a good

fession and it gives the HERALD

Hon. CHARLES l.. Hoffman. the
Republican leader of Kootenai
county, was over from Rathdrum
last Monday, the invited guest Of
Hon. d. W. Standrod, the Repub-
lican nominee for governor. Mr..
Hoffman had the distinguished
honor Of presiding over that mag
nifcent convention which nomi-
mated Mr. Standrod. 1t was a
a happy coincidence that he should
be present to assist in opening the
campaign, and he will accompany
Mr.. Standrod on his campaign
through the county. Mr.. Hoffman
is inaugurating a vigorous fight for
Republican victory this fall, and
bases lis prediction of victory on
facts and figures.

EDITOR JOHN f. YosT of the
Kootenai County Republican was
over from Rathdrum last Monday
10 assist in opening the state cam

visit to Boomers Ferry and the
HERALD acknowledges very pleas
ant visit with Rathdrum's stalwalt
Republican editor. The Republi-
can is dealing the fusionists sledge
hammer blows every week, ard il
terror to the opposition. 1t made
specific charges of extravaganza
against the present fusion admins
tration weeks ago which the fusion
organs have so far not dared at
tempt 10 refute.

WE are told that our remarks
last week about the expense and
salary bills of the fusion county
commissioners were not nearly
strong enough-that the aggregate
was far greater than we stated.
We had OILY some scattered news
paper files On hand to draw from
and of course could not get an ac-
count of all the bills. Before the
campaign closes we shall publish
a statement, the facts of which are
full and taken from the records, to
show up not only this but other
matters of extravaganza by the
fusion administration.

County Platform.

The republicans of Kootenai
county, in convention assembled,
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 unqualiiedly endorse
the administration of President
William Mckinley and commend
the wise and patriotic manner in
which he has discharge evry duty
and preserved the principles dear 80
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 Picking to relieve or beleagured
representatives and American
citizens within the walls of that
city,
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 Kootenai
, county over three-quarters of a
million dollars. In all matters
pertaining to national legislation
he has proven himself to be a wise,
able and efficient senator and his
public acts merit our highest COM
, mendation and approval, We feel
: that the state of Idaho can not
afford to dispense with his influence
ard experience in the national
senate.
, COUNTY EXTRAVAGANCE.
+ With regrets and commiseration
/ for the unfortunate taxpayer we
| condemn the incompetent and ex'
y travagant methods to which the so.
q called reform and fusion admins
, tration has treated the people o.
= Kootenai county during the pas
: enc and one-half years. We con
y slider that the amounts of salaries
( paid to most of the county Officers
are too high and should be reduced
: and that, as the current debt of thu
county has been considerably in
creased, the candidates on the re
publican ticket pledge themselve
u to decrease that debt and to admin
u lister the affairs Of the county in al
. economical and business lik
y manner.

Republican Platforms,
State Platform.

The republican party of Idaho,
in convention assembled, renews its
to the principles of re-
pubIicanism, 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 TO 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 repub-
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 or property without due process
of law; nor shall the right of any
NAH to seek and obtain or contract
for labor or employment in accord
ance with law be in any wise cur
tailed or interfered with.
STATE ADMINISTRATION.
We condemn the policy OF
the present state administration
whereby it has sought tC
deprive a large number of honest
settlers in the northern part o
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 timbe,
lands.
, We condemn the policy of tn,
state administra ton in convert
ing the boards in control of tn
various state Institutions into parti
, san political machines indirectly
and the republican party pledge
: itself to place these institutions II
the hands Of those who will con
. duct them solely for the purpose @
the public good and not in the in
terest of any political organization
IDAHO VOLUNTEER SOLDIERS.
We remember with feelings c
e gratitude and pride the gallant an
e patriotic services rendered to gu
i. country by the brave volunteer so
diers from Idaho, and glory in the
deeds of valor and faithfulness I

Ridgely, middle-aged bachelor, who

Miss Shoebridge could not resist her
desire to tickle the bald spot. She

girl brushed the lace edges over his

around Miss Shoebridge kept a
straight face. The people Uttered.
The girl kept up the mischief until
Ridgely demanded that policeman

Miss Shoebridge declared she was

her. She has apologized to Ridgely.
