The Sunday passenger train ran in
TO a bunch OF milk cows, below the
White Pine Lumber mill, and killed
nine head. No attempt was made on
the part of the engineer to prevent
the killing Of the cattle; he did not
sound the whistle.

fever heat, every train brings gold
seekers. A daily stage route is estab-
lished between Priest River and the

Dun friend OF the Standpoint
News infers that Standpoint is a
better convention town than
Rathdrum, since none OF the
democratic delegates who were
there last week had to sleep on
cots. We learn that fifteen pre-
cincts were unrepresented in the
democratic convention. The
News, must, therefore, be aware
of the fact that Rathdrum had q
much larger crowd.

4 REMINDER TO Mr.. VILLA us.

Secretary Taft has neatly punctured John
Sharp WilIiamss rhetorical Tigmaroie about the
Declaration of Independence and the Filipinos.
In his speech at Montpelier the former Governor
of the Philippines made this home thrust at Mr.
Williams: 1T is quite remarkable that Mr.
Williams should be so sensitive that the Fill
-pinos are not given complete eIf-government
''at once. and vet should be willing TO represent
the Yazoo district in Congress. elected thereto
''by vote Of 1853 persons out Of population
''of 10000"
How is Il Democratic orator to indulge In
irony and sarcasm if he is thus TO be reminded
Of facts: Independence for the Filipino may be
a congenal subject for men who do more talk
ing than thinking. but constitutional rights for
the negro in Mississippi-that, of course, is a
very different thing. not at all suitable TO ora
tory of the Williams type

The editors new idea of a tariff issue on
which it is hoped that the Democrats may get

so slowly TO such stimuli as his consuming
habits permit that of the cons of time it would

voter it palsies the brain TO think. Let him stew
in his own juice!
Attention must be paid TO the producer.
The old "robber baron" must be made TO see
how cut in the tariff will increase his profits.
In word, tariff revision as means TO com
mercial expansion is the new war cry. This
is the meat for strong men that The Times
would have the Democratic orators hand out.
