A Stud Convention

Mr.. G. o. Broxon, editor of the
Pocatello Advance, was a delegate
attendance in the Weiser Democrat
convention. There were at the
convention about 900 Democrats,
the very flower of the party; yet,
candor obliges Mr.. Broxon to con-
fess that if the polygamists, biga-
mists, adulterers and fornicators
had been excluded, there would not
have been a working quorum left.
If Mr.. Broxon had not been ON the
ground, we would have been oblig-
ed to feel that he was speaking
without knowledge or authority,
but he was there, and we can only
regret that the sexual reformers
are worse than anybody thought
them. Alluding to the subject, Mr..
Broxon says:
There is said to be movement on foot
to have the Democrat State Central COM
mittee recommend that no one guilty of
the practice of polygamy or unlawful CO.
habitation, including bigamy, adultery or
fornication. be elected to the State conven-
ton at Lewiston. The committee will re-
fuse, of course, as the evident purpose of
the movement is to prevent the election of
the same delegates as attended the late
Weiser convention.

were caused by acts of the system
of which Henry HI. Rogers and his
immediate associates were the direct
administrators; and yet MIR. Rogers
and his immediate associates, while
these great wrongs were occurring,
led social lives which, measured by
the most rigid yardstick of mental
or moral rectitude, were as near
perfect as it is possible for human
lives to be. AS husbands, fathers,
brothers, sons, friends, they were
ideal, cleanly OF body and OF mind,
with heads filled with sentiment and
hearts filled with sympathies. And
yet these men, to whose eyes I have
seen come the tears for others suffer-
iugs, and whose voices I have heard
grow husky in recounting the woes
of their less. fortunate brothers
these men under the spell of the
brutal code of modern dollar making
are converted into beasts of prey,
and put to shame the denizens of
the deep which devour their kind
that they may live. From their
eyes no human power can squeeze a
tear, no suffering wiring pang from
their hearts. They are immune to
every feeling known to God or man.

Chancellor Allison later amended his
decision, saying that for satisfactory
reasons he would decline to appoint a

chancellor's change are that the COM

therefore, if proceeded against outside
that state, suit must be brought in the
federal courts.
The present suit was brought about
at the instance OF the Independent

Several years ago the government
officials undertook to secure a water
supply for Fort Stevens OF suiilcieni
volume to properly meet the require
ments Of the post. In military insti'
tutions OF the kind the water supply
must be an interior one. A water sup
ply located at distance would sub
ject the post to the possibility OF be-
ing cut off by an enemy In time OF
war. For this reason the idea of bring
ing water from the headwaters OF the
Lewis and Clark river did not meet
with favor, either at Washington or
at the local Office of the constructing

was likewise abandoned and the off,

successful termination Of their efforts
has been source Of much satisfaction

the government to continue on large
scale the improvements which have all
