Enjoyable.

The democrats are enjoying the
predicament OF the Republicans in
regard TO the report OF Judge Magoon,
law officer of the War Department.
For the past month, the Repub-
licans have been quoting from the
mastery, scholarly and learned"
opinion submitted by Judge Magoon,
declaring that Congress possesses
plenary power over the new posses
sions, the Constitution to the contrary
notwithstanding. Now it appears that
Judge Magoon had prepared an ear
lier opinion (Which was accepted by
the War Department and by the Pres
ident when he wrote his "plain duty"
message), alleging in equally learned,
equally scholarly, equally mastery
language, that the Constitution ex-
tends by its own vigor to the islands
and that they were parts of the United
States. The Democrats will print the
two opinions side by side to show just
how the Republican administration
has changed sides.

A New York Dispatch says: "Mrs.
Mary Lynch. widow, died from
starvation, today, two policemen
brought her food when there was
no longer need of it, and as he en-
tered found the woman's son, seven
years old, kneeling at his mothers
bedside, and heard him say: ooh,

Please get her something to eat 50
she can live with mel" This too,
in a land of millionaires-a land
where prosperity" reigns and new
banks springing up in every town
and hamlet. 1t is enough to make
one almost doubt the goodness of
an all-wise God, to record such
events. Can that sweet prayer of
an innocent soul bowed down with
deep sorrow, ascend to Him and go
unheeded? Ii it can then who

Easter Sunday was beautiful,
bright, sunny day. The Congrega-
tional church was the only church
that had services. 1t was very pref
tily decorated with flowers. The
subject for both morning and even
ing, relative to the Resurrection OF
Christine opening of new life
was well portrayed by Rev. c. E.
Mason, in his usual impressive
manner. The Junior Endeavor
society had spa cial services at their
regular meeting Sunday afternoon.
Too much cannot be said in praise
of this army of little christian
workers. The president, Miss Dona
Harris lead the meeting, and read
an original paper on the subject of
the lesson "Bread of Life" after
which bible references were read by
members of the society. Miss Maud
Hanly recited an Easter poem in a
pleasing manner. Edward Mason
and Neil Madison each read selec-
tions. The following new officers
were installed: president, Miss Dona
Harris; vice president, Miss Belle
Mitchell; secretary, James Pence;
treasurer, Edward Mason. The
flower committee distributed pack
ages of flower seeds to be planted,
the flowers to be given sick juniors
and also gather them for decorating
the church. Bright and lively
songs were heartily sung by these
little people, displaying their hap
piness in the commemoration OF
the Resurrection of their dear Sa-
viour who said, "Suffer little chill
dren to come unto me for theirs is
the Kingdom of Heaven"

There is no longer any reason
able doubt that Admiral Dewey is
being pushed for the Presidency by
that wing of the Democratic party
that is opposed to Bryan. and will
do anything within its power to
prevent his nomination. The fact
that goldbug papers in Ohio, Texas
and New York have pronounced
for him, is accepted as evidence OF
this fact. 1t seems probable that
the Admiral made his announce
ment without giving notice to any
one, but it is more evident that his
cause has been taken up by the
gold men. There is something curl
ously impractical about his candi-
ture. There is related as fact
that he and Mrs. Dewey both sup
posed at first that all that was nee
essary was to distribute ballots
with the Admiral's name on them
on election day, and that the people
would do the rest. Afterwards,
when convinced that a more elabo-
rate plan was necessary, he pro-
posed to form committee, compris-
ing men of both political parties
who would organize his campaign
on free trade, gold, Democratic
platform with Theodore Roosevelt
as running mate. Meanwhile,
he and Mrs. Dewey are having
lovely time.

are alike in one respect. They are

Perky, Monday afternoon, April 8
1900. Roll call was answered by
quotations from Moore. The follow.
ing program was rendered: 1.-THE
people of the Philippines, MRS. w.
A. Reynolds. AS we are all very
much interested in our new posses
sions the article was highly appre-
ciated. A study in cheerfulness
Mrs. F. A. Wilcox. This article
was, indeed, instructive and very
interesting. The comments given
by the lady showed much time and
thought had been given the subject.
A selection from Bill Nye's Thinks"
was rendered by Mrs. Helfrich to
the pleasure and satisfaction of all
1t was unanimously decided that
parents should not choose the occu-
patton or profession of their children.
The meeting then adjourned to en-
gage in social chat and enjoy the
dainty refreshments prepared by
the hostess. THUS another very de-
lightful and pleasant afternoon was
brought to close.
Idaho people will not forget that
Shoup cast his vote in favor of the
infamous Porto Rican tariff bill.
He lent his feeble might to the pas
sage Of this monstrosity just as he
voted for the single gold standard
bill after protesting lifelong devo-
ton to the cause of silver. He
voted to tax people without repre-
sentation which was far greater
than he said once was tyranny. He
voted to make larger the lists of
starving women and children on the
grief-sLricken island. Idaho people
will please remember this when
they vote for members of the legisla-
ture this fall.-Boise Capital.
