The New Hampshire constitutional
convention adjourned Friday after pre-
pairing nine amendments to the con-
stitution, to be submitted to the peo-
pie for ratification. These provide for
the prohibition of trusts; for the ex-
tension of suffrage to women for a
tax upon inheritances and franchises:
for an educational qualification of the
suffrage; to strike the word Protestant
from the bill of rights; to place rep
resentation in the legislature upon a
new basis; to establish voting pre-
cincts; to extend the criminal jurisdic-
tion of police courts; and to require
the examination of commissioned of
ficers in the militia. EX-United States
Senator Chandler led the movement
for an amendment prohibiting free
passes, but it was voted down toward
the close of the session. The amend
ments to establish the initiative and
referendum and providing for the ap-
pointment instead of the election of
county solicitors were also killed.

to agree to abolition of the death
penalty.
We are not arguing for hanging
men or putting them in the electric
chair. If the majority sentiment of
the people of Vermont is against the
death penalty, we submit and raise no
protest. But whatever is done, the
pardoning power ought to be taken
away from susceptible legislators and
equally susceptible governors. Make
the penalty for murder life imprison-
ment, and then place the sole pardon
ing power in the hands of the judges
of the supreme court, with a proviso
that no pardon shall be granted ex-
cept upon undoubted proof of the in
nocence Of the prisoner, and the ends
of justice would he better subserved,
and the community would be better
protected than under the existing pro-
cedure, with each Legislature setting
itself up as judge, jury, and respon-
dents lawyer.
With the law and the pardoning
power as they now are, how many BIZ
ennial terms will pass before some
governor turns Frank Shaw loose?

Saving the Lives of Railroad Men.

1t will be recalled that President
peatedly called attention to the shock
ing and needless Gripping and slaugh-
ter of railroad employees in coupling
and uncoupling freight cars, and in
the performance of the ordinary du-
ties of brakemen and other employees
upon freight trains. As result of
public agitation of this subject Con-
gress passed a law in 1898 requiring
the railroad companies engaged in
interstate traffic to provide necessary
safety appliances for all freight and
passenger cars within certain reason
albe time limits. The annual report
of the interstate commerce commits
sion for the year ending June 80, 1902,
states the gratifying results which
have followed the enactment and OBJ
servance of this law. The number of
persons killed and injured in coupling
and uncoupling cars during the year
the first entire year reported since
the law went into full effect shows
diminution as compared with 1898,
of 6S per cent in the number killed
and 81 per cent in the number in
jured. In 1893 the number of casu-
alties from this cause was 11,71O, of
which 433 were killed and II ,277 were
injured. In 1902 the total number
was 2,256, of which 143 were killed
and 2113 injured This shows a re-
duction of 9,454; and it is to be borne
in mind that the number of men en-
gagged in this work is much greater
now than it was in 1898.
This showing is very gratifying, but
the interstate commerce commission
ers recognize the fact that the number
of railroad men killed and crippled is
still needlessly great, and they urgent
ly recommend the still further applica.
tion and use of safety appliances
especially in the direction Of automat-
is uncoupling devices, and of the more
complete application of power brakes
They ask for authority from Congress
| to forbid the running of trains in
| which less than one-half the cars are
equipped with power brakes; also to
give the commission increased power
and oversight in the matter of regu
lating the use of automatic couplers
grab irons and the height of draw
bars.

How License Works in Fitehburq.

Westminster, Dec. %.

The following is taken from a letter re-
ceived by the secretary OF the Chelsea
Old Home Week association from Mar
tin S. Hall of Fitchburg, Mass, who is a
loyal son of Chelsea:
Il see by the papers that your legis-
lature has passed local option license
law, but there is a chance heft to kill it.
and hope the voters will give 1t a death
blow. If they could see One-half that I
am obliged to see as the result of the
open liquor saloons, there would not be
one thousand votes cast for this new law
in the state of Vermont. In this small
city of Fitchburg 1t Is causing untold
misery and suffering, wrecking many
homes and making drmltards of many
of our young men. License fees can
not repair or make good the damage that
is being done among our people. l shall
pray for the defeat of that bill in your
state, and If I were a public speaker
would go there and work against it,"
Mr.. Hall is probation officer in the
city court, and his words are not those of
an ideal theorist, but of a man of large
practical experience in the matter un-
der discussion.

Why the Doctor Lives So Lonu.
IHardwick Gazette.J

When one stops to think of the average
country physician's mode of living he
wonders that any of them live ten years
in active practice. They eat and sleep
without any regularity whatever, they
are exposed TO every known and un-
known disease, they ride day and night
in fair weather or foul through miles of
mud or snow to reach the bedsides of
the sick, they witness scenes of misery
and distress that alone would turn most
people sick. But they do live. and taken
as class they are a big-hearted, un-
selfish lot of men, who get gray headed
early, but seldom die. No doctor ever
takes his own medicine, you know.

DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET

The democratic state ticket has
successfully and honorably stood
the test Of one of the most bitter,
personal, mud-slingiug campaigns
of villifcation and vitupcration ever
inaugurated by political party,
and comes out OF the contest with
clean hands. Public speakers have
made gross misrepresentation to
the people regarding the peniten-
tiary investigation; they have false
ly charged public officials with
crimes that would land them in
prison if true; they have appealed
to the prejudice Of the voter, and
all because they dared not discuss
the real issues of the campaign.
They cannot successfully deceive
the people by these methods; Meth
er can they hide the one great fact,
standing out boldly against the pol
itical horizon, that the democratic
administration has reduced the state
tax levy from SO cents under repub-
The Coeur d'Alene press. (Coeur d'Alene, Idaho) 1892-1907, 1902-11-01

lican rule to 40 cents on the 500
now; that a floating debt of $500, :
900 has been paid off during that
time and state warrants made worth
par as against SO cents under Nc
Connellism. These are facts that
the republicans do not care TO have
discussed. The democratic state
ticket is composed OF men who
brought about these reforms. They
are responsible for these conditions
and the republicans know it. The
ticket is composed of clean, honest
men and there is no reason why
any voter who wishes 4 continu-
ance of honesty and enconomy in
the administration OF state affairs
should not vote the democratic
ticket.

DEMOCRATIC SUCCESS.

The success of the democratic
state and county ticket is assured.
Every man on the ticket, with one
exception, will be elected We
make this statement from our
knowledge Of political conditions
in both state and county. The
democrats will carry the state by
not less than 1900 majority and it
will not surprise rs if the figures
are doubled The county Will 60
democratic by from zoo to 500 ma
jority. The result will show these
figures to be not far out of the way.

a hard fight, but they cannot win.

vote the ticket by making a cross

There are FIVE labor unions in
Kootenai county, numbering about
500 men, whose aim in the coming
election will be to cast their votes
for friends OF labor That IS right,
for if the man who furnishes the
Drawn in the field of labor does not
look out for himself, it IS a sure
thing that the other fellow will not
look out for him. Labor has the
remedy for all evils within its
power and concerted action at the
polls will accomplish results OF
lasting benefit To do this it IS
necessary that their votes be cast
for friends. Who are the friends
of labor? We know that when
Governor Hunt, Secretary of State
Bassett and others of the demo-
cratic administration opened the
states stone quarries on the penl-
Tertiary land to the building con-
tractors of Boise, at a time when
the owner Of the only other stone
quarry near there refused to sell
stone to contractors who employed
union labor, and stopped all build
ing operations, these officers showed
their friendship to labor in sub
stantial manner II was a fight
against organized labor and the
democratic administration saved
labor by furnishing stone to the
men who employed union labor.
This is a statement of fact that any
labor union or member may verify
by writing or wiring to any labor
union in Boise. This act alone
will ally the labor vote with the
democratic party because it shows
that party to be its friend and when
given its support it is in a position
to demand recognition.

THE young man in politics is
winning his way, The hope of the
nation is in the young man of to-
morrow, and no party makes a
mistake when it advances its young
men. The republican ticket this
year is essentially a young mans
ticket as the majority of the candi-
dates are men who have not yet
reached the meridian of life. And
the enthusiasm and vigor OF the re-
publican campaign this year is due
in a great measure 10 the work of
the young man.-Lewiston Teller,
Just why the Borah republicans
boast loud and long of the fact that
they have turned down the old re-
publicans and that their party is
now essentially a young mans
party, we are unable to clearly UNI
derstaud If it is votes they want,
the old republicans vote will count
for as much as that OF a young re-
publican; but they seem anxious to
ignore the old war horses, have ig-
nored them and are now Haunting
the fact in their faces by such state
meuts as the above from the Lewis
ton Teller, the leading republican
paper of Me- Perez county How
many old republicans are there who
can submit to being kicked out in
this manner and then walk up to
the polls and swallow the ticket
which is essentially young man 5
ticket" We venture the statement
that some Of them will resent the
Insult that the young republicans
are attempting to heap upon them.

DEMOCRATIC COUNTY TICKET.

The democratic legislative and
county ticket is composed of good,
clean men. 1t is made up OF men
competent to fill the various posi-
tons to which they aspire, Many
of them have had experience in
public affairs. They have been
tried and found true to the trust
imposed in them by the people.
The county government has been
so economically and ably managed
under the democratic rule that
our active opponents have not
dared to criticise it. They know
that the people approve of such
methods and to oppose them is to
oppose good government. Such
opposition IS unpopular and the re
publicans are smart enough to see
it. That is why they do not attack
the democratic administration Of the
county. That is the reason why
the democratic ticket should and
will be elected. Vote for it to win.
| Vote for it for ecoromy. Vote for
it for good government.
