The Coeur d'Alene press. (Coeur d'Alene, Idaho) 1892-1907, 1904-08-27

In her speech at the Moscow con
vention, Mrs j. Ellen Foster devoted
a large part Of her time in attempt
ing to impress her hearers with the
idea that duty required them to vote
for every nominee on the republican
ticket, regardless Of character or At
ness. The preacher prayed that God
would bless every means used by the
politicians to elect the entire ticket,
and Frank Cooling was nominated for
governor The preacher and the
woman must have inspired tho dele
gates with confidence that any one
could be nominated and elected.
Such methods may be politics but
they are not good citizenship and
any person who would follow blindly
the advice of this woman and the
preacher, is not ht to exercise the
right Of suffrage. All good citizens
ought to reserve the right to vote
against any Objectionable candidate
and most people do this regardless Of
the advice of paid spoilers like Mrs.
Foster.

Brother Moon advises the public to
take the Independent, but fails to
prescribe the size of the dose, whether
one, two, or three at a time. He
should be more explicit.

Aneut the proposed western slope
uratarical contest for the high schools
mention Of which has several times
been made In these columns and for
which the Enterprise offers a $50
prize. the Gunnison News offers a
prize Of $40. if the Gunnison school
is Included. The oratorical contest,
once made permanent, can be
Of great value and much pride to
the pupils and people Of the Western
slope. The idea should not be al
lowed 10 lag, and we wish TO urge
ON the promoters that it would be a
good idea for the principals and
county superintendents of the west
ern slope to get together during the
holidays and organize permanently
4 contest that is to be worth having
and Of benefit 10 those engaged must
be thoroughly organized and time,
ample time, given for preparation.
Such preparation must be even more
thorough than the graduating Grafton
and should take longer time. There
should be numerous contests IN the
different towns before the final con
test for the honors of the western
slope is held.
A little push and energy at this
time will inaugurate a permanent
educational feature Of this western
country
