While mob violence is de-
plorsd whenever and wherever it
occurs and much has been written
and said against its being counte-
nanced it is nevertheless a glaring
fact that in counties where it has
been resorted to the law is held in
much better respect and just YER
diets are easier reached for years
after a single application of it. In
the early days when crime and the
rope were more closely associated
than at present the property of
others was held in much greater re-
spect and swift justice precluded
the possibility of any packed"
iuries or releases on technicalities.
Mob law may be wrong but its
effect is lasting and had Idaho
county been treated to an example
of it eight or ten years ago the mon
ey spent since that time on cases
that would never have happened
would go long ways in repairing
some Of our abominsble stretches
OF road.

RIGHTS OF WAY ARE GRANTED.

Since our last issue practically all the
rights of way for the electric line in and
around town which were held up last
week have been granted and the agree
ments forwarded to the headquarters OF
the road at Lewiston. In most of these
cases the owners accepted the guaran-
teed payment of certain damage in
case the road was built and the differ
ent farmers who were not touched by
the line agreed to pay certain amounts
toward offsetting the damage Of those
granting the rights of way. With this
matter thus happily adjusted the road
will not miss Cottonwood and we can GO
improving our city safe in the knowledge
hat when the electric road is built it
will extend through Cottonwood.

CUMMINs HINTS DARKLY
Enigmatic Utterance at Chicago, with
a BeaMng on the Tariff.

Chicago, May 24.-Republican ma
tional politics took on a Semblance
of life to-day, when a group of poll
ticians of national fame appeared at
the Auditorium Annex. Chief among
the visitors was Governor A. B.
Cummins of Iowa. whose name is as
ISOLATED with the Iowa Idea" Of tar
iff revision and reciprocity, as OPP
posed to the stand pat" policy on
tariff as enunciated by the late Mar
Gus A. Hanna.
Another was former Senator e. 0.
Wolcott of Colorado. who has re-
turned to power in Colorado on the
in that state. Representative James
A. Tawney Of Minnesota, republican
Vship in the house, came also, and
among the more prominent arrivals
was the sergeant-at-arms of the re-
publican national convention, William
F. Stone of Baltimore, accompanied
by Charles J. Montell, chief door
keeper, and his private secretary,
Charles Cordray.
Governor Cummins was averse to
talking about tariff revision, but he
did not hesitate to speak of other
items.
There Is one thing that must not
be lost sight of in a fight of this
kind" he said, land that is, there
to stay on top. That is the side which
has some direct object at stake. This
faction in politics works first thru
| one side and then the other In each
party and then thru the parties them
! selves. While at times it may seem
to be badly defeated, it is not long be-
| fore it Is dining at the table Of the
victors."
Governor Cummins did not express
| himself more clearly on this point,
| but the inference was plain that he
referred to the interests which play
politics for selfish purposes only.
Speaking Of the. national ticket,
Governor Cummins said:
1T may be news to know that
Theodore Roosevelt will be nomi-
| mated for the presidency without op-
position. AS to the vice presiden-
cy, Iowa entertains very high opin-
! ion of Illinois candidate, Representa-
| tive Robert r. Hit, as it does also
| of Senator Fairbanks Of Indiana. No
active work has been done in Mr..
! Hits behalf, but we like him i'm

| put a damper on the proposal to

pect to carry Iowa for Roosevelt by
| fully 100000 majority. In off years
I carried the state twice by about
$4,000, ana the larger the vote the
| heavier the republican majority in
Iowa. We also expect to carry the
| one democratic district in congress
| now represented by Judge Wade"
! What Is the significance Of the
tariff plank in the Iowa platform as
you see it ?" was asked.

of the convention" replied the gov
ernor. IT am loyal party man and

SPHINX PARKER
SPEAKS AT LAST
Tells Friend He Thinks He Can
Hold Down President Job
All Right.
New York Sun Special Service.

New York Sun Special Service.
Chicago, May 24.-Walter Well
man, in a New York special to the
Record-Herald. says:
Judge Parker has spoken at last.
He has opened his mouth and de-
clared that he thinks he is big
enough man to be president of the
United States.
1t is true that Judge Parker was
not speaking for publication, and it
would not be quite fair to hold him
responsible for all that he is alleged
to have said. But his remarks, which
come to hand thru one of his friends,
are interesting. This friend, a law
yer Of New York city, has known
the judge many years. They We're
boys together. Not long ago the law
yer was at Albany to argue a case
before the court of appeals, and as
the court adjourned for recess, JUS
tice Parker sent his friend note
suggesting that they have luncheon
together for old tines sake.
During the meal the talk was of
the familiar and informal sort, as
may be judged by the report Of 1t
| which the lawyer gives. He asked
Judge Parker:
How do you feel over the pros
pect that you may become president
Of the United States? Do you think
/ Se@Ah
II have no doubt of it," replied
| Justice Parker. II have no fear that
my lack of familiarity with life at
| Washington will seriously handicap
me. If I am elected, I believe
can fill the job. I may not know all
about it now, but I can learn it. There
are men from whom one may learn
great deal about the presidency
before taking the office, and the rest
will come after one gets in. I feel
about the possibility that may be-
come president Of the United States
as I did when took the office of
chief justice Of the court Of appeals.
I realized that I was the youngest
man on the bench. and I said to my
self: Parker, what you want to do
is to go slow for a time and keep
your mouth pretty well shut till you
| get onto your job And I followed
that rule. 1 am following it now as
to the presidential talk, and shall
| continue to follow it for a time"
There is one thing I feel quite
sure off, added Judge Parker, &C.
cording to his lawyer friend, land
that is that, no matter what happens
nothing can swell my head"

LINCOLN'S GLASSES.
Watertown IN. y Woman Has Spec
tacles Worn by the Martyr
President.

A cherished treasure of Mrs. Andrew
B. Carter, of Watertown, N. Y, is a pair
of, spectacles formerly worn and owned
by Abraham Lincoln. They were found
in his pocket at the time he was shot by
John Wilkes Booth in Ford's theater, in
Washington, April IA, 1865.
Mrs. Carriers father, William H. H.
Keyes, was a private in one of the regi-
ments quartered in Washington then,
and was on duty at the theater on the
night of the tragedy. He was one of the
detail that guarded the passage through
which the dying president was carried
from the theater. AS Lincoln was placed
in the carriage the s%pectacles slid from
his pocket into the gutter, and before
Keyes could restore them the carriage
had driven away. Keyes afterward
sent them to his wife, Mrs. Carriers
mother, and they have since remained
in the family. The glasses are of the
old-fashioned kind, with heavy gold
bows and octagonal oblong glasses.

VIII Be Largely Increased.

The cotton acreage will be the
largest ON record. Fields that have
not been cultivated for many years,
idle meadow lands and every avail
able bit of ground is being prepared
for the seasons crop, and the pros
pect for cotton continuing its reign
as king is stimulating the agricul-
turists to efforts of the greatest en-
ergy. The situation among the
farmers is satisfactory to a high de-
gree. There are but few of them
who are not free of debt. They are
hopeful, cheerful and independent
and the only pessimistic phase of the
outlook is that some of them may
become too greedy and overtax them
selves by planting a larger acreage
than they will be able to till and har-
vest. The conviction is firm among
them that the present cotton prices
are due to the law of supply and de-
mand.
