throughout the state.

bhtOuRuOut OIlC oldtS,
Mr.. Bierbower's connection with
the bar and courts of this state
dates from the year 1887, at which
time he arrived at Haley, and i'm
mediately entered upon the prac-
tice OF his profession, which he
continued up to the time of his
death, with great credit to himself
and satisfaction to his friends.
Mr.. Bierbower was man of great
and varied learning and attain
ments, as wall as. q reofound lawyer.
At all times simple in his habits,
spotless in his private and profess
sional integrity, always despising
sham and pretense, always direct
and certain with every question
with which he was called upon to
deal. Such an ornament to the
profession could i'll be spared, and
the niche which he occupied therein
cannot be filled.
Mr.. Bierbower was born of Ger
man parentage in York, Pennsyl-
vania, in 1889, where he received a
liberal education and studied law
under the Hon. jeremiah Black
from whom he doubtless imbibed
many of his straightforward and
sturdy priciples.
After being admitted to the bar
Mr.. Bierbower practiced law for a
number of years in Omaha, Neb.,
and served several terms In the
state legislature; he filled many
offices of trust and profit in this
state, the last being that of lieuten-
ant-governor of the state, filling
all with honor and fidelity.
We loved him while he lived
and mourn him in death, and
treasure with us in memory his
virtues.
With him the silver chord that
bound him to this life has been
severed, the pitcher is broken at the
well.
We recommend that a copy oi
this report be spread upon the rec.
ords Of this court. and that copy
thereof be furnished to the papers
of Idaho county for publication.

Republicans Resolve.

The republican state convention.
recently held in Lewiston, amongst
other resolutes got off the following
'True to the principles of republi-
can faith and recognizing the duty
and care of government founded
thereon to all it's people, both rich
and poor alike, and not to any
favored class, we denounce trusts
as the most dangerous product of
aggregated capital and we recon-
mend the early adoption of such
cooperative national and state
legislation as will destroy their
power for harm
Now, in view of the fact that re-
publican senators tumble over each
other in their haste to defeat bill
that specified "that no supplies for
the army should be purchased of
trusts makes this look inter-
esting. We believe that the safety
of the people is in the referendum,
as Legislatures and congress cannot
be entrusted with the welfare of
the people. The people should take
the management of affairs into
their own hands and then they can
direct legislation in the interests of
the whole people. They can down
all trusts, pools and combines, and
can re-establish the income tag and
fix an inheritance tax. and regu-
late, if not own and control, all
means of communication. So far
as the present management of af-
fairs, in the interest of the whole
people is concerned, it is farce.
No people are free who have not
voice in every measure before it
can become law.
The power of the people is only
exercised when the ballot, dele
eating that power TO a legislator, is
slipping through their hands. Did
you ever think of this?
The trusts are the outgrowth of
false systems that have been al.
lowed to grow and flourish under
this delegation of power, to q few
who, as all powerful legislators,
manipulate the political machine

VERIFY politics makes strange bed
fellows in Seattle. The fusionists have
placed in the field in opposition to the
Republican municipal ticket, con-
glomerate ticket of discordant elements
under the Democratic name, headed by
a "Non Partisan" ProhibitiOnist Pol
ulist for mayor, and the hungry aspir-
ants for office Who were nominees upon
the tickets that were sold out and who
failed to "get in on the ground floor'
in the new deal are running around
with knives up their sleeves after the
manner of martyrs in a lost cause.
The ISLANDER, however, can most
cordially commend one of the nomina-
tons at least, and it does not presume
to say that the others are not equally
meritorious. Homer M. Hill, the Silver
Republican nominee fol- city comp
troller, and now a member of the CITY
council, and the editor OF this paper
were rOommates and teachers together
in the same institution eighteen years
ago, and the writer knows him to be a
man of high character, strict integrity
and fine ability, whom the people of
Seattle can safely trust in any public
capacity. He is small man physical
ly, but if he should be elected he will
be a worthy successor to the big, broad,
brainy and big-hearted Republican
who has held the office 50 long and so
acceptably to the people.
