1t is conceded even by demo-
cratic partisans that the develop.
ment Of the administration policy
in the Philippines will add mater
tally to the commercial importance
of the Pacific northwest. In all
this development Idaho has a very
important place, yet Idaho alone
of all these states has turned down
the administration and will send
congressman aud senator to
Washington who will be in all
things at variance with the party
in power. Idaho at time when
her needs are greatest has not a
friend in court in touch with the
national administration. Her en-.
tire representation in congress at.
ter March next will be men
pledged to thwart the administra.
ton in ever. movement made to
further its policies, men whose
political affiliations are with par
ties so greatly in the minority as
to be totally powerless to effect any
legislation that will benefit Idaho.
Fusion success at the polls has
sidetracked Idaho's interests at
the national capital at time when
a strong representation there in
touch with the party Of supremacy
would materially benefit the state.
There will be many times in the
next two years when the people Of
the state will have occasion to re-
greet the short-sighted policy which
triumphed in the fusion victory.
