DEMOCRACY v. STEUNENBERGISM
Democracy Will Not Stand for the Outrages
perpetuated In the Name OF Justice. Gen
eral Mcfarland Fractures the Bubble.

An open letter in Saturday mornings
Farland attacks Steunenberg's permit
system and voices the statement that Is
rapidly growing i'll the democratic party
of the state. The letter as follows:
Editor Morning ribuue:-Often in the
haste of political battle the partisan press
forgets principles for party, but it rarely
occurs that both party and principle are
laid aside for an individual candidate.
Your editorial entitled, Labor Rights
and politics." found in this mornings
issue of the Tribune. will surprise more
than one democrat in Idaho. What is
there about Senator Heitfeld's resolution
that merits criticism In the opinion of
many ii was not strong enough. Itcould
have rected and denounced the high
handed outrageous action of the state
authorities i'll coniscating property with
out process of law and in closing up
hotels and other business houses in the
Occur d Alenes simply because their
proprietors did not believe in the pernici-
GUS permit system. 1t might have told
the story of how tyrannical and despotic
petty governor compelled freemen at a
point of the bayonet to work mines, cook
aud "sling hash for Occur d Alene
corporations.
This county suffered four years war
because there was among us those who
insisted upon continuing the black man
in slavery. | say that the south was a
thousand times more justifable in enslav-
ing the negro than Steunenberg was in
forcing miners to work against their will;
for the south had bought and paid for her
slaves while Steunenberg did not own a
hair on the head of a single miner. Be-
fore going further | desire to say that l
do not believe there is sane man who
will claim that the destruction of the
Bunker Hill and Sullivan mill and the
killing of the two men were not diaboli-
cal, fiendish, and murderous atrocities.
No one offers an apology for the perpet-
rators. But two wrongs never make one
right. 1t was proper and right to declare
martial law in the first instance but it
was not right to continue it and to keep
six hundred men in prison six months
and then turn them out without trial.
How can democrats endorse militarisnl
aud claim to be followers of w. J. Bryan
Can anyone with the warm red blood OF
an American in his veins look you in
the face and say that it is right to re-
quire any man to obtain the written con-
sent of petty officer before he is permit
ted to earn his bread by the sweat of h S

there is soil the bare rocks standing out
only in spots end lodges, so the hills are
covered with green TO their tops. The
abundance or paucity of soil is shown by
the luxuriance of the grass. III some
places the green is a mere veneer, and in
others il is like a carpet. Occasionally
it seems TO have been poured on the hill
sides. streaming down among the tongues
of bear rock in many fantastic forms.
After having covered some so of the
So miles between Riparia and Lewiston
the visitor begins to see the Snake river
orchards. which nestle i'll every cove
where water for irrigation is to be had.
These orchards are all kept up with great
care and present a magnificent appear
ance. The first cherries were being ship
ped by the Sth, when the republican,
delegates made the trip up the stream
Back beyond the crests of the hills is a
rolling country where wheat grows
Evidences # this grain belt appear along
the stream in the form of warehouses foi
storage of the cereal. III some places
the wheat is carried down the hills by
tramways.
Lewiston at once inpresses the visitor
as busy place. There are evidences
that the city enjoys a large business
while many improvements are going for
ward. The old town is laid out undel
the bluff, which is very high. Its prin
cipal street runs from the boat landing oil
| the Snake around the turn Of the banl
and up the Clearwater, the principal por
! ton of the town being on the latter side
+ The avenue is lined with fine Lombard,
poplars, the first of which are said t.

ings, giving the place substantial air.
The bank rises some IS feet, but th
city is surrounding it. On the platea
above is a broad stretch of level land tha
is ideal as townsite. The view

magnificent. Looking westward the eye |
takes in the beautiful Vineland tract on
the Washington side and the vision ex-
tends far down the Snake. To the north
ward the Clearwater is in the foreground,
while beyond are green hills rising some
2ooo feet above the town. The Snake,
which turns at its junction with the
Clearwater, borders the place to the west.
/ 1t is spanned by steel bridge erected by
/ Vineland company. That is probably
/ the finest wagon bridge in the northwest.
There are many residences on the
plateau ana the surrounding grounds are
kept in excellent condition. Nearly
mile back is the normal school, an I'M
posing structure fanked on either side
by doinitories. The normal is the pride
of Lewiston. 1t is doing good work and
is regarded as being success in every
sense. The grounds of the school are
not kept up as nicely as one could wish,
the grass not being cut with that neat
ness that should characterize such an
institution.
Back from Lewiston on higher ground
is found the grain land This stretches
away for many miles and constitutes the
great agricultural resource of the country.
Since the reservation was opened these
lands have been rapidly brought into use
and the entire area will soon be under
cultivation. In the valley of the Clear
water, extending some miles eastward
from the city, are the famous orchards
and vineyards of the country. These
were planted many years ago and have
attained great productiveness. They are
, one of the sights of the neighborhood.
What impresses the visitor more thar
anything else is the fact that, at some
time, Lewiston must be on more than one
through railway line. The Clearwate
comes III from the east and the Snak,
!, from the south. United they maintain
+. the course of the former, flowing on west
ward toward the junction with thu
Columbia. This gives the Snake RICH

REGISTRATION IN RALEIGH,
(From; the News and Obseryer.)

(From the News and Observer.)
Registration closed yesterday. Sc
far as heard from it is everywhere
very favorable to the Democrats-the
white people.
In Raleigh the figures show the
white registration is 1000 in excess
Of the colored.
Ana IN the country precincts, so
far as heard from. about the same
proportion seems to be maintained,
1t this proves to be the case the Dem
cratic majority in Wake county will
easily be from 1000 to $500. Even
with the ordinary registration in
the country and a full anti-amend-
1nent vote h majority cannot be less
than 1,500 in the entire county.
In the city of Raleigh there are
about $500 white voters. These are
registered almost to a man. The
hu1nDer OF negro voters by q recent
census, is a bout 1900. Four hundred
OF these have not registered.
IN other words 2,4l8 white men
nave registered in Raleigh and 1.469
This gives, as above stat
ed, a white majority of 1909. Two
years ago it was 663.
In 1898 the white registration was
2,543 or 125 less than it is now. In
1898 the negro registration was $50
or 10 more than have been Registered
in 1900.
The registration in Raleigh this
year, by wards, is as follows:

BRYAN'S WILD GUESS.

Bryan will go into history as the worst
prophet that ever did business in this
country. In a speech in 1896 he uttered
the following dismal wall:
I hereby make the following prophesy:
If William Mckinley is elected and put
in power for the next -four years, wages
will decrease, hard times will come upon
us and over the land, the p1tce of wheat
will go down. the price Of gold will go
up, mortgages win be foreclosed by the
mOney-lenders and sharks, the factories
and mills win close, we will export no
goods, but import from foreign lands all
the goods we will use. Want and misery
will be with us. Remember what 1 say.
Compare those predictions with pres
ent condi lions. Is such a blunderer fit
to be president of a prosperous and pro-
greSSiye nation?

THE SMALLPOX SCARE.

The county government always has
shown a more public spirited disposition
in the smallpox matter han the city
government. If Butte this winter
escapes a terrible epidemic it will not be
owing to the intelligent preventive meas,
ures of the municipal.t y. Such careless
ness in the management of so dreadful
a scourge was never seen before outside
of an Indian village
The commissioners have gone to some
expense n trouble to stamp out the
disease, but the slowness and neglect OF
some of the city officials call for the
gravest criticism.
Now that the city county have
united in ordering a general vaccination,
it is hoped that every resident of the city
will comply without delay, and thus pre-
vent a hegira this winter. "

populists of Montana who favor fusion
are so pusillan!mous, so lacking in dig
nifty and self-respect as to support for

tempt for them? Do they intend to
fondle the hand that smites them? 1t
was but two years ago hat Joseph X.

A REPRIMAND AND CONFESSION

The most ridiculous event of the ma
tional campaign was the reproach of
Bryan, delivered to the citizens of his
native town, Salem, Illinois, because
some of them had placed in their WIN
dows portraits of William Mckinley.
Said the Nebraskan just before leaving:
I hardly feel like making a political
speech here, for this is a sacred spot
to me. Here my parents are buried, n
here I learned precepts which I a
tried to follow. I know the people here
and know how conscientious they are.
When I see the picture of my opponent
in the windows of the republicans 1
know how conscientious they must be
and how certain they are that my elec>
ton would be injurious to the country
tor they would not exhibit the pictures
upon the occasion of my return to my
birthplace.
J Isn't that rich? Is 1t not fine stuff for
sight of a mere photograph of the next
president frightens Mr.. Bryan SO, what
would he do should he actually see Nc
Kinley in the flesh? But Bryan was not
satisfied with u%pbraiding his fellow
g. tizens of Salem, but proceeded to in>
suit all the voters of the United States
by charging them with being purchas-
sable, as follows:
) If the election We're held today there
is no doubt that we would have a ma
ljority in the electoral college and on the
popular vote. But the republican man
ayers are now collecting from the mo-
ncpolies a large campaign fund. They
will buy every vote that a be bought.
They will coerce every vote that can be
coerced. They will intimS a every
laboring man who a be inundated.
They will bribe every election judge that
can be bribed. They will corrupt every
county that can be corrupted. ! do no,
understand how it is possible for the
