a REPuBLKCsA.N OPINION.

Monday was the last day Of Governor
tstsunenberg's administration. No one
irrespective of party but will agree that
Frank Steunenberg gave Idaho the best
administration the state ever had, and
turning over the affairs of state to his
successor he will have the satisfaction
that he has done his work well. 1t is
not necessary to state that the citizens
Of Caldwell will, with one accord, well
come him back to their midst. Record
Thus do the laurels come. From
al sources are the same opinions ex-
pressed. But in Idaho good ten
IRE of Office does not necessarily
mean further political preferment.
In fact the contrary seems to be
the rule.

Gov. Steunen berg does not need

Gov. Steunenberg does not need
the senatorship to insure his name
going down in Idaho's history,
though he deserves 1t, as the best
governor Idaho had been blessed
with up to his time, and those who
follow him will have 10 get hump
on themselves If they keep his
record from being referred to as the
chest governor Idaho ever had, I"
even though 1t be fifty or one humid
red years hence.
Gov. Steunenberg hasn't lost
much by beng turned down by his
own party, but that party and the
state, have lost the services of a
capable, conscientious servant, in
the efforts of few petty politicians
to shelye him.

problems surrounding the iupbuiid
! ing Of our merchant marine and i
especially We'll qualified to judge q
the merits Of suclf4a measure aa the
ship subsidy bill. Therefore It WIS
fitting that about the first - clal
act should be to advise the senate TO
defeat the measure.
Then it goes on with lot more
of alleged ironical expressions.
1t is altogether likely that the
legislators of Idaho read something
besides the Statesman and therefore
know something of the ship subsidy
steal. It has been branded as a
steal BIZ both republicans and dem,
ocrats in the senate, where the
measure Is now being considered.
Even the friends of the bill offer no
other excuse for its passage, except
ut is hoped that it will help in
building up American merchant
marine. Il it does help who gets
the benefit? Only men who have
almost unlimited wealth already, for
it takes a barrel of money to begin
with to build vessel. For the
first few years, it is charged, the
vessels already built would get the
entire 1000, 900, proposed to be
given by the bill, and when new
vessels are constructed more money
is to be given than the bill now pro-
poses.
: While this bill was being con
sldered, another measure was
brought forward, by Wyoming
senator, appropriating $4,000, ooc
toward reclaiming lands in the arid
states. This bill was calculated to
help only poor people to obtain a
home for themselves. There was.
ut any chance for big corporations
70 get big whack out of it without
giving anything in return to the
government. This bill was sent to
committee and there it peacefully
sleeps.
The Statesman may not see any
thing wise in the action Of the leg
islature, and it may attempt to poke
fun at their request, but the people
generally of the arid states, will
commend all such actions, until, at
least, the national congress shows a
disposition to help out the mountain
states.

The scheme to cut off the span
handle" of Idaho and annex it to the
state of Washington, has again been
revived III the north. We suppose
the proposition contemplates the
annexing of the counties of Nez
perce, Latah, Shoshone and Koot-
cnai.
There is much to he said in favor
Of the idea, viz: As now provided
with rapid transit facilities, that
section is as far removed from Boise
as Wyoming or Utah. AS regards
the "brotherly feeling Of the north
and south half of the state, they
are as far removed as Idaho and
Nebraska. Their every interest,
except as to laws are as different as
it is possible to imagine. The min
ing and other developments Of
North Idaho are largely engineered
by state of Washington capital
The odd shape of the state nccessi-
tates greater expenditure Of taxes
that is or ought to be required Of 3,
state. This expense falls alike on
the north and south taxpayers. All
this and more can be said in favor
Of the division business.
Against it are these propositions:
It would leave Idaho with only 10,
600 people according to the last cen
Sus. Its assessed valuation would
be reduced SD, 900, 900 or to about
S34, 900, 600. It would deprive the
state of its university and one
normal school. There are other
reasons also that might be men
toned. Those who favor the
scheme might answer all of these
by saying that what IS taken away
will in time be replaced, while the
argument on their side cannot thus
be answered.
Taking a common sense view of
it, the EXAMINER believes that the
d vision ought to be had if the peo-
pie up there want it, and we miss
our guess, if any serious opposition
develops to it in the southern part
Of Idaho. II the convenience of
the people demand it, we say, give
them their desire. There will be
enough left to make great com
Inonwealth.

Eugene Zimmerman Talks of the South
 ern Pacific Deal.

San Francisco, February 3.-Eugene Zimmerman of Cincinnati left for Monterey today to visit his daughter, the Duchess of Manchester. Referring to the recent pur- chase of the Southern Pacific stock by Union Pacific interests, MT. Zimmerman said: "It will be a big thing for the country as well as for the Pacific coast. Do think these big. consultations tend toward gov ernment ownership? We'll, no; it will be long time before the government will go into the railroad business. I do believe, though that the deal will have an impor- tant effect on rate matters. It will cer- tainly put stop to the fearful slashing of rates. and this is bound to benefit both the railroads and their patrons. I am inclined to think the Vanderbilts are mixed up in the deal, though, of course, am not in a position to say with certainty

CORNEGIE SPOKE.
Glowing Tribute to Moral Character of
 Queen Victoria.

New York, February 3.-Andrew Carnegie spoke in Carnegie Hall this afternoon upon the Moral Character of Queen Victoria"
 "One of the important trats," said Mr. Carnegie, "of Queen Victoria was her large liberal and generous federation of all sects.
 Queen Victoria kept her court pure. The chief jewel in her dover was purity. No scandal or loose living was ever tolerated there."
 MT. Carnegie went on to say that her unvarying kindness to every one and es- pecially to the humblest servants was one of her strongest traits He said she once He was one of those remarkable men who would have made his mark in any line of work and stood very close to the Queen When he died she had the following in- scription put on a tablet above his grave: "A tribute of loving grateful and everlast- ing friendship from his truest and most grateful friend. Victoria
 ''If we all treated our servants in that light" commented MT. Carnegie, q think there would be less to say in regard to the domestic problem in this country
 After MT. Carnegie's address Edwin Mark ham read poem upon the Queen
 In his poem Mir. Markham paid tribute to the late Queen in the following lines: The kindly deed will live in memory, When London in far centuries shall be As still as Babylon and both a dream: When London dead shall be some poets
 theme,
 When all her tombs and towers shall be a
 flight
 Of ghostly arches in the rayless night. Then, as some bard of legends borne along, Shall build her faded glores into song, Some Homer sing her darings and defeats Filling with crowds against the grass grown streets,
 Placing dead Kings back on their crumbled
 seats,
 There suddenly will sweep into his rhyme Victorias name, long leavendered by time; And the poet heart of him will stir At some small heart-warm chronicles of
 her;
 The obscure whisper of some kindly deed Of this dead Queen;- her quick reply to
 need;
 And Lo his song will brighten and will shine
 As though a star should break along the line. Greater than any King with wolfsh hordes That ever climbed the pathway of the swords
 Was this Queen-mother, gracious, gentle and good A white fair flower of Christian woman- hood Her banners fret the wind of every sea, | And yet she held a wider realm in fee | The pure, high kingdom of the womanly | Peace to her spirit the years increase | Peace, for her last great passion was for peace.

MANILA MEETING
 SLIMLY ATTENDED Result of Senor Buencamino'S Evangelical Movement MUCH INTEREST MANIFESTED First Applause Occurred When Priests Were Compared to the White Ants Which Eat Substance and Leave
 Nothing of Value.
MUCH INTEREST MANIFESTED

Manila, February 3.-Fewer than 400 per- senor Buencamino at the Rizal Theatre to inaugurate the Evangelical movement"
 Considerable interest was manifested in the proceedings, and there were some ex- pressions of approval of the addresses No attempt, however, was made to commit the meeting to Professionalism, that aspect of the case being left for subsequent action, at his discretion, to Rev. J. B. Rodgers, a mis- sionary of the Presbyterian board, who was present.
 Senor Buencamino explained that relig- party, which had been offered solely to promote political peace.
 The first mild applause occurred when he compared priests to white ants which eat the substance and leave nothing of value"
 Senor Buencamino argued in favor of supplanting the present priests with Fili- pinos having the privilege of marrying. Gradually he led up to Protestant ideas, and asked whether they were any longer to submit to the authority of a Pope or an archbishop. Some shouted mo- but others remained silent.
 The Rev. MT. Rodgers preached a short sermon, but refrained from any criticism of Roman Catholics
 The Rev. MT. Prautch of the Methodist mission offered the four gospels in Tagalog and anti-friar tracts, which were sold at the door by Nicolas Zamora, a native Methodist, who conduct exhortation meet ings every Sunday
 Prior to the meeting in the Rizal The atre there was political gathering attend ed by practically the same people at which the advantages of American sovereignty were explained from the Federal party point of view
 A Methodist minister baptized hundred Filipinos today at Malibay, about four miles from Manila. The Rev. MT. Prautch has secured scores of signatures in a neigh boring village to a declaration in favor of handing the church over to Protestant worship and debarring German Catholics.
 President Taft of the Philippine commits sion this evening entertained at his resi- dence the members of the directorate of the Federal party. The reception was att tended by many Filipino ladies, and a num- Der of high military and civil officials There was a charming gathering on the lawn.
 Three hundred insurgents, members of Delgardo's former command, have sur- rendered at Santa Barbara, Island of Panay.

STEAMER IN DISTRESS.
She Gave the Signal for Help and Has
 Since Disappeared.

Milwaukee, Wis, February 3.-A steam CT, believed to be the ferryboat Muskegon, with twenty-six loaded cars and crew of twenty men on board but which could not be plainly distinguished in the blinding snow storm, blew distress signals for half an hour off South Milwaukee this after noon and then apparently moved to the southward. That was the last seen of her. It is probable that she is somewhere out in the lake in the blizzard which Is prevailing. There Is a heavy sea running which adds to the danger.
