Under full steam, strong squadron of
japanese armored cruisers was observed

the vessels are on their way to attempt

succeeded in Turing the Russians from

WHAT WOULD HAPPEN?

Just now the entire Democratic
press of the United States is
earnestly engaged in the effort to
prove:
That Republican Tariffs have
not been attended with general
prosperity.
That Democratic Tariffs have not
been productive Of general ad-
versity.
That the Mckinley Tariff of / $50
was injurious to the country.
That the Democratic Tariff Of
1894 had nothing whatever to do
with the period of want and ruin
from 1898 to 1897.
That the DINGHY Tariff of 1897
had nothing whatever to do with
the period of unexampled prosperity
from 1897 to 1904.
That Protective Tariff does not
benefit wage earners.
That a Protective Tariff does not
benefit the country as a whole.
That Protective Tariff restricts
foreign trade and stiles domestic
enterprise.
That Protective Tariff has
always been, is now, and always
Will be detriment and a curse.
That a Protective Tariff is a
robbery.
In view of these Democratic con-
tentions, taken singly or i'll mass,
what do you suppose would happen
to the system and policy of Protec-
ton II the Democratic party should
obtain control of national affairso
What did happen the last time
the Democratic party had control
OF national affairs?
The Teton peak., 1904-09-01

The Parma Herald, Democatic
paper, admits that the Democratic
party will be defeated in Novem-
Der, and says:
with unfaltering courage and
abiding faith in the ultimate
triumph of Jefferson and Jackson,
they will again this year OF grace,
1901, march to defeat under the
dictation of man, foisted upon
them by the will of a mistaken
majority, who doesn't know the
meaning OF the word "Democra-
cy;' who boasts that he was reared
in the shadow of the home of a pat
ron saint of Republicans, and i'm
bided with every drop of his moth
er's milk the principals of that par
ty; who, to gain personal political
preferment, wrecked the party
under whose banner he had fought
the battles of his youth and man
hood, and professed allegiance to
the principles of Jefferson and Jack
son; and who now, in violation of
every tenet Of Democracy, proposes
to plunge the party into a factional
religious political strife, that in the
end can only mean destruction. "
The Butte Inter Mountain says of
the Dubois anti-polygainy plank in
the Democratic platform: 1T is
all for buncombe Polygamy is
no longer live issue, even be-
tween Mormons in Utah. i
But meanwhile Senator Dubois in
Idaho appeals to the almost univer-
sal prejudice against polygamy,
just as the political opponents Of
Smoot in Utah have done and are
doing. 1t would be quite as reas-
enable and nearly as timely for a
political convention in New Eng
land to adopt resolution denounc-
ing the popish plots in old England
as menace to government.
The Teton peak., 1904-09-01

high above the low plane OF party
politics.
The inference seems to be that
politics are too corrupt to mix
those Offices with and, Of course,
in so lar as our friends the Demo-
Gratis are concerned we know that
the great majority of the people
will agree with the Press, but Re
publicans have no apologies to
offer for any of the judicial or
school officials they have mixed
with their politics and never ex-
pect to. The Republicans select
only good men and women.
1t is noticeable that the Democ-
racy has discovered these great
boons to the people when they are
out Of power. They controlled
this state for some years not long
since, during which time they were
50 busy showing the people how
incompetent they could be, that
they even overlooked some choice
morsels. There are, however, a
good many people III Idaho who
are familiar with how the Demo
cratic party, i'll places where il
controls, separate the judiciary
from politics. Certainly where
Democrats control, there is call
for the separation of the judiciary
from politics, but it is strange that
it should be necessary to come to
Idaho to make this discovery.

DEMOCRATIC KEYNOTE.

In North Idaho, where no Nor
mons live, the name mormon" is
being used as a sort of bugaboo
with which to frighten voters. In
what seems to be intended as
''key note editorial, the Occur d.
Alene Press in its issue of August
sets forth the position OF the Dem
ocracy in that section of the state
i'll column leader that must be
read in full to be appreciated 1t
says:
1.-The Democratic state conven-
tion acted wisely and we'll y = \
in the drafting of its platform, tax
ing high moral grounds on the
Mormon question. i The
ticket is headed by that popular
man, Hon. Henry Heitfeldt, who
stands for a principle rather than
success This we'll known trait of
character was demonstrated when
the fight for the anti-Mormon reso-
luton seemed to have met with
defeat and the Mormon supporters
were in the majority in the conven-
ton. 1t was then that the Nor
mon contingent attempted to clinch
their temporary victory by going
to honest Henry Heitfeldt and
offering him their united support
for the gubernatorial Nomination.
He refused it at their hands and
the writer heard him tell one of
them that he could not accept the
nomination without the anti Nor
mon plank that he believed the
evils of polygamy and church dom
ination III the politics of Idaho to
be dangerous to our political liber-
ty and that he always stood for the
right principle -
Without indulging in any com
ment on the Press lavish and full
some praise of Henry Heitfeldt, it
is sufficient to say that his election
to the United States senate in 1896
was political accident that gave
even the Democrats and Populist
the chills and to call attention t,
the fact that he ended his career il
that honorable body as he began i
total cipher.
Regarding his insistance OH tn
antiMormon plank in the plat
form, it is we'll known to ever,
man in the state who keeps watcl
of political movements, thar if Mr.
Heitfeldt refuses to accept the nom
ination without the anti-Mormol
plank, he did SO only on the re
quest Of Senator Dubois, who wa
reduced TO sore straits in order Il
carry his point To the men o
Idaho who interest themselves il
politics it is as clear as is the SUI
that shines over their heads tha
Henry iIeitfeldt has no God il
politics except Fred T. Dubois
that he has no idea, no principle,
no doctrine, no wish in politics
which is not prepared for him and
taught him by Fred 7. Dubois.

known Fred T. Dubois for many
years and we have taken as much
