When a Mormon Bishop goes to
Boise with a prospective sugar fac
tory, it's whoop la Great people,
those Mormons. Full of enterprise,
progress, intelligence and industry.
Made the wilderness blossom like
the rose; stand for law and order
and the purity of the home. But
when Mormon Bishop goes there
to fill a public Office, it's damn the
Mormons from Ochonook to Fish
Haven. They must be squelched
or their pestiferous institution will
overrun and blight the State
Bosses attitude toward the Nor
mons is the same as Russia's to-
ward the Jews. Yet Boise is the
spiritual, moral, intellectual and so
cial center of the universe-of
Boise.

strange and shocking oceurred2
Bishop Wooley has been holding a
federal Office for some years past,
and the country has not gone to
pieces. A Mormon elder is Attor-
ney General of the State of idaho;
bishop Of the Mormon church is a
member Of the Idaho St. Louis Ex-
position commission: a president of
Mormon Stake in Zion is a regent
of the University of the State Of
Idaho; Mormon bishop is a mem
Der of the board of trustees of the
Idaho Insane Asylum; a Mormon
Seventy is Judge of the Fifth Judic-
ial District; a Mormon evangelical
preacher is a member of the Indus
trial Home Commission; Mormon
IS private secretary to the Governor
of Idaho, and so far as known they
each and all make good public ser
wants. All of which inclines us to
ask with the old Indian philosopher,
What's the matter now?
We used to think that Mormon
ministers were the only kind that
mixed piety and politics, but our
thought on that point is undergoing
a change. Here, in Caldwell,
where there are no Mormons, there
has not been a political campaign
for eight years in which ministers
have not cut considerable figure.
And generally the good brother"
racket has been worked just as
zealously as it ever was in Utah.
We have no objection to ministers
OF the gospel taking a hand in poll
tics, but to save their own faces,
they ought to study the business
enough to make decent stab at it
when they do take hold. Now,
look at this Wooley situation:
There is nothing in the world to it
but factiona1 row in the Republic
can party, which will be smoothed
aut at the next State convention,
and the Boise Statesman is liable to
be whooping it up for some Nor
mon bishop, nominated for Con-
gress. Where will the ministers be
then? Que might be led to think
that no minister outside the Nor
mon church ever aspired to political
office; yet, in this state many times,
a minister outside of the Mormon
has run for Congress.
Some friend of those Boise ministers
ought to tell them plainly that they
are being used to promote the polit-
Ical interests of a faction in the Re-
publican party, and when that fac
Ion has squeezed out of them all
he good there is in them, they will
De cast aside like empty Sausage
covers.

Encouraged by that splendid
victory over the Republicans of
Boise City, the Statesman has start
ed in to smash the Republican
party of the State. 1t is trying to
prove that the State Administration,
Senator Hepburn, Congressman
French, State Chairman Gooding
and National Committeeman Stan
drod are prostitutes of the Mormon
Church. And it pictures President
Roosevelt as skowking about wink
ing at the infamous gang.

1t looks little bit as though the
combination of North and South

bearing on the question of perman-

If the North and Southeast boys
are right quick in the head, they
will see a point in this suggestion.

THE COM BINATIoN.

] 3 Il 4 s-5A
Combination is not a bad word.
It does not signify wickedness; but
it has been used SO mucn to de-
scribe evil aggregations, that we are
apt to be tnisled and 60 to hating
movements entirely legitimate be-
cause they are called combinations.
Recently, in political circles, we
have heard a good deal about a
combination ofNorth-Idaho Repub
hcans and Southeast-Idaho Repub-
licans. the object of which is to
! control the patronage of the Repub-
Hcan party. Naturally those who
are not in that combination de-
nounce 1t as very wicked thing,
because it is liable to prevent their
continuation from controlling the
patronage. AS a matter of fact,
there isn't a thing wrong about
political combination. Indeed, it
is only by combination that good
can be attained. The greatest and
best statesmen Our country ever
knew, worked the combination to
perfection. To make solid COM
bination and work it is the acme of
political genius. IF the Mortimer
and the men in the Southeast have
come together and formed close
combine, they have shown wisdom
and sagacity. 1--WE feel perfectly
sure they have done the thing. }
Now, it is for the boys in Central
Idaho to smash the combination or
climb onto the band wagon just as
soon as they can. That's the bust
ness of the situation. There is no
use sitting around whining, and
holding UP your hands in horror of
the combination. The only bad
thing about that combination is
that it belongs to the other fellows.
The question is, can it be busted?
We very much doubt it. Those
Mortimer and Southeast boys are
a wideawake crowd and on to their
job. They have gone about con-
trolling the Republican party in a
mastertul way and it is going to be
hard to down them. Moreover,
they are great, big, active, loyal, |
brainy folks and mighty helpful to
the Republican cause. Well, then,
is there any need of busting this
combinations? Now, that depends. |
If the combination outside of this
combination has more divine right
to run the Republican party than
has this combination, then this
combination needs busting in order
that the other combination may get
In and do business. If you belong
to the other combination, you will
feel that you owe it to your country
and your God to bust this combina-
ton, but if you are in this combina-
ton, and are wise, you will ''stay
init" because you are very liable
to be on the winning side.

is pronounced quite equal to the

opportune as the natural supply is

LEVY COURT COMMITTEE
WILL REPAIR BEACH ROAD
DREDGING MACHINE WILL MOVE THERE
AFTER LIGHTHOUSE ROAD is FINISHED.
II is the Intention of the Levy Court Commit.
tee to Have Woodland Beach Accessible
to Travelling Public by July lst

Ihe dredging machine Ponder"
has nearly completed work on the
Lighthouse Road and by the latter
part of the week will move over TO the
woodland Beach Road to give it nee
essary repairs. The Levy Court Com
mlttee, Mr.. W. H. Baggs chairman.
has given the roads on Bombay Hook
Island thorough inspection and thew
have decided to give the old Wood
land Beach Road first attention after
the Lighthouse road is completed
Much Of the old road is still solid and
with the aid Of the dredger thev hone
TO NIL IN all hOllows and rebuild the
sections washed away by the high
tides. This will take several weeks
but the Levy Court Committee hone
to have it in order for travel bv the
hrst OF July, in time to be of some
service to the resort before the sea-
son closes. In the meantime. Pro-
prletor Mott is making a number Of
changes on beach front and at the re-
sort, and will doubtless be as attrac-
tive as it has been in the past. This
bayslde resort will be opened next
Sunday, May the 31st, when the first
excursion of the year will touch at
that place. Three excursions are
booked for June 10th. The prospect
OF good marsh road is received with
favor by patrons of the beach everv-
where and there IS every reason to
believe that this resort will be restored
TO Its oldtime popularity with the
people of Kent county, as well as the
State and Eastern Shore of MARYLAND
The new Lighthouse road has stood
the test well and gives promise of
being permanent structure. In
about ten days or two weeks. should
the weather keep good, light teams
VIII be able to use the road, and the
residents of the Island, who have been
forced to make their way to the main
land by boat for several years, will
nave the privilege of free and easv
access to all parts of the county. The
slulce IN the road has been stopped M
and by filling in the break below
woodland it is thought both roads will
Oe able to withstand the flow of tides.

A large force of italian laborers are
now at work on the Odessa and Middle
town trolley road, and the ties and
polls have been distributed along the
line from Middletown to Odessa. The
outlook for the road being in opera
ton at an early date is very encourag-

make light of the project when it was
first started are now convinced that
the Tennis Construction Company is

DEATH OF REV. THOMAS II, HAYNES.

Neureo Minister Passes Away at His Home on
Union Street, Saturday Afternoon. After
a Lingering Illness, Aged Eighty.lwo.
In the death of Rev. Thomas Fl
haynes, former pastor of Asburv NJ
L. Church, which took place shortly
after two O'Clock Saturday afternoon,
smyrna has lost one of its Oldest and
most beloved citizens, and the vii.
mlngton Conference one of its most
sanity members. For the past six
weeks he had been confined TO his
oed, but 1t was thought he would get
better and get out again, but a sudden
attack Of hemorrhage set in and his life
SO sWeetly and beautifully spent left its
earthly tenement and passed to its
eternal reward. What a faultless life +
What life of good deeds and chris
tan pIety! What rich legacy he has
LETT behind! Loved by all who knew
him, by those who came in contact
with his kindly nature, Rev. HAYNES
VIII be sadly missed. Smyrna is bet
ter, the world is better by his having
lived IN 1t, and his memory will ever
be held dear. He was ready and
prepared to go. It was only a few
days ago that he had q vision of
angels lowering around MIN and beck
oning him on to the Promised Land.
We will welcome you, we will honor
you" The summons came and his death
was triumphant.
Rev. L. H. Haynes was born at
Hodges Ferry, near Portsmouth. Va.
about eightytwo years ago. He early
entered the ministry and his whole
life until obliged to give up on account
OF falling health was busy and de-
voted one in which he experienced all
the Joys and sorrows subject to the
ltlneracy. He served charges at Rich
mond, Alexandria ard Norfolk and at
Richmond witnessed the great phe-
nomena of falling stars. When the
war broke out he could not agree with
the position of the Southern Metho-
dist Episcopal Church South npon
the slavery question and largely
through the influence of Bishop Scott
he was transferred to the Wilmington
Conference. This was in 1871 after he
had already served twenty eight years
IN the ministry. His first charge in
this conference district was East New
Market which he served until 1874
His other charges were as follows
From 1878 to 1877, Milford; 1880.
Smyrna; '8O-'82, Chestertown. Md.
'83-'S5, Newark; 'S6-'87. Frederick:
$3.50, Sudlersville; '91-'92, FELTON,.
In 1894 Mr.. Haynes retired from active
service, going on the superannuated
list, since then he had lived at Smyr-
ma. In his active days he was an
earnest and logical preacher of great
force, with u fine command of Ian
guage, was of a most courteous bear
ing and manner and had a pleasant
word for everybody. He was we'll in
formed and loved to relate his early
experiences when Methodlsm was in
its younger life.
Mr.. Haynes was married early in
life and his widow and three sons sur
