Hon. A. f. Parker, presidential
elector on the democratic ticket, is
making q vigorous and effective
campaign. AS student of nation
al questions and as an observer Of
congressional proceedings, we
doubt if Mr.. Parker has a superior
in the state. He is remarkably
familiar with our territorial and
state history. No man has done
as much to advertise the resources
Of Idaho county and to promote
and advance its interests. We
believe the people of this county
will show their appreciation o
this valued and devoted citizen, by
giving him the largest vote on thu

Still later he. was appointed by
Gov. Black, another republican, to

Judge Parker was 33 years old
when he became a justice Of the
supreme court of New York. Ir
1897 he received the nomination
for the Office of chief judge Of thu
court of appeals, and was elected
by a majority of 10000. His re
publican associates on the cour I O
appeals all speak highly Of his lega
attainments and the judicial cas-
of his mind. With such recort
it is little wonder that the demo
Gratis look hopefully for his election
to the presidency next month.

feet of 80 soaring the republicans
that they have had Gooding give
out that he has not promised to ap-
point Parkinson, and it is said by
those who know, that Parkinson
has resigned his claim as granted
by the Moscow Gooding deal.
Still, the Mormons have been given
to understand that they are to
have the immigration commission

as efficient to the interests OF the
Mormon church as Parkinson is.

A Good Record.

A resume of the official life OF
of Alton B. Parker demonstrates
that the democratic party acted
wisely and well in making him the
standard bearer in this campaign.
In 1887, when only 20 years old,
he was nominated for surrogate OF
Ulster county, N. Y. and he was.
the only democrat elected in that
year. In 1883 he was again elect
ed to the same Office by majority
of 400 in a total vote OF 10, 600.
When he had served two addition
al terms he was selected to manage
the democratic campaign in New
York and carried the state ticket
through the election by large ma
iorities. He has declined the offices
of Lieutenant governor and secre-
tary OF state for New York. Presi-
dent Cleveland in 1856 rendered
him the Office of first assistant post
master general, which he declined.
When Theodore r. Westbrook
died, leaving the supreme court
justiceship for the third judicial
dictrict vacant, Gov. Hill appoint
ed him to the vacancy, and in the
fall of the same year he received
the unanimous nomination of the
democratic party fer justice for thu
full term, nomination which thu
republicans did not oppose. Thi
was compliment never before no

position in that district. Will

An Infamous Graft.


Probably the worst Indictment
Of the Mormon Hierarchy apart
from it's polygamous features is the
infamous graft it prepetuated on
the people Of Idaho in the m after
of the detested sugar bounty bill
passed by the Slippery Seventh two
years ago engineered by job II.
Smith, the polygamous apostle
from Utah. Through Mormon in
fluences in the legislature of 1901,
a sugar bounty bill was passed,
but it was promptly vetoed by Gov.
Hunt.
Tw o years ago the legislature
being overwhelmingly Republican
and absolutely dominated by the
Mormon church, another sugar
bounty bill was passed by which a
bounty of one cent a pound was
offered for sugar manufa ctured
from sugar beets in Idaho for 1908,
and one half a cent per pound for
1904.
This little luxury will cost the
people of Idaho $3.50, 10000 and
every dollar of it will 60 to swell
the Golfers of the Mormon church,
with the exception Of what little is
given to the Blackfoot plant, which
is independent.
The bounty for 1908 is $40, 600, OC
and that for 1904 will be $3.50, 0OO,.
