TIME TO CONSIDER

Theodore Roosevelt is nominated
by the Republican party for Presi-
dent of the United States, and the
time is at hand for the people OF
Idaho to fairly and seriously consid-
er whether or not they will vote for
him. The first question to be ask
ed himself and herself by every
voter is, docs Roosevelt stand fol
principles and policies which tend
to promote general well-being?"
The answer to that question will
be found in his past record and the
platform of the Republican party.

UPHEAVAL OF RIGHTEOUSNESS

The Republican National Con-
vention failed to perceive any &C.
casion for expressing itself on the
Mormon question, and, for two
reasons: First, there is nothing in
it approaching the dignity of a Ma
tlonal issue, and, Second, it is basse,
as the French say, which means
that it has reached a state of decav
fit only for the delectation of Dem
ocrat and Mugwump philosophers.
We are told, though, that in Ida.
no war, bitter, bloody, unrelenting
war is declared, aud that the forces
OF antl-Mormonism will never low
er an arm, never seek respite until
the Mormon hierarchy is stomped
into the earth.
Idaho is the storm center of the
anti-Mormon fight" yells the Rev,
Judge Flenner, editor of the even
ing atterpain of the morning States
man. He also says, "The Mormon
contingent and their allies need NOT
exalt themselves unduly because
the Republican did not put an anti
Polygamy plank in its National
platform" Then he goes on to
say that 5000, 900 of women are I'M
IN arms, and that this is not a mere
sally but crusade which shall s,,f-
Ter no retreat, no letup or hin.
ORANGE, no cessation, until the
Mormon hierarchy" be cumhrsti.
Gated.

it would be nothing short of des,

In the first place he probably
comprehends within himself more
of the genius of Americanism than
any other man who has occupied
the Office of President, save Abra
ham Lincoln. Born and reared
under conditions which enabled
him to choose between life of lux
ury and ease and a life of simple
ity and work, he deliberately chose
the latter. In early years his Sur
roundings were elegant and his in
clinations scholarly. He soon de
veloped talent which promised tc
give him high rank in the literar,
world. But he was not long salts

Great Danes Taught by 5sgna-2s
Drag Bicycle RIDERS to tie
Ground

To let loose the dogs Of war is
TO be yeritable military maneu-
yer, for dogs are now being
trained by the German army to do
actual battle. The bicycle is re
sponsible for this. Since its intro
duction into the armies OF Europe
German officers have been consid-
ering the best methods Of combat
ing il. and the result has been a
decision 10 train dogs to drag bi-
cycle riders from their wheels.
The Great Dane has been select
cd for the purpose. as his size and
strength. make him a powerful
and effective antagonist. AT Der
lin there are now a thousand OF
these great dogs in training.
Every day for the last three
months they have been taken to
the parade ground and been given
a lesson in Distinguishing the Ger
man and Austrian uniforms from
the French, Italian and Russian.
for it is necessary that they
should discriminate between
friend and foe. Then they are
taught Ia rush upon bicycle
mounted enemy and dism0unt
him.
When 1t is remembered that
nearly all of the armies of Europe
have adopted the bicycle the ne
cessity of the bestmeftOdto lessen
their effectiveness can be appre-
ciated. and the German officers be-
lieve they have discovered the
the method.
The dogs are taken to the field
of operation where the cyclists
areurged to attack the riders, who
are padded against harm. After
this lesson il learned they are
turned loose upon soldiers wear
ing various uniforms, and when
they attack German or Austrian
they are whipped. but when. they
attack others they are rewarded.
