sorry plight. 1t is out of harmony
with its party, it's teeth are on edge,
and it has not good word for any
body, except to praise it's own good
ness and consistency. 1t should re-
member the old adsge: Self praise
doesn't go great ways. - The
News is sore at the democrats of
Weiser because they endorsed the reso-
lutions of the democratic state com
mittee condemning the course of that
paper, and possibly for the further
reason that quite number of them
have seen fit to withdraw from its list
of regular subscribers. The charge OF
the News that the resolutions adopt
! ed here the other evening we're the
work of coterie of Office seekers is
not true, and that paper only belittles
itself when it refers to the democratic
club of this city as Weiser Weaklings.
The members of the club do not pre-
sumo to assume any degree of superior
wisdom, but they think they know
when an attempt is made to get money
from them under false pretenses.
The Capital News pretends to be
democratic paper, yet it sets up its
conscience CD against the platform
and candidates of that party regularly
adopted and named by democratic
state convention. The News has never
charged irregularity in any action OF
the party, and its only excuse for its
present course is the pueral plea that
the whole party is dominated by Sen
ator Fred Dubois. Thus any delegate
who attended either state convention
is openly charged with dishonesty
with surrendering their own personal
conscientious convictions to the die
tates of this one man. Not only the
delegates are so charged, but every
loyal democrat in the state, both men
and women, are accused with selling
themselves out to the Honorable SEN
ator. Is it any wonder the demo
Gratis of the state are resenting such
Se'oo oiio AAiNoiOu6 CudlBeS! Line and
prise is that the state committee sur
the clubs have been SO slow in the
matter. Whenever newspaper or an
individual sets itself or himself upon
moral pedestal and proclaims aloud,
II alone am honest, it is mighty
safe time to keep an eye on it OF him.
Apparently the News is trying to do
just what it accuses Senator Dubois
OF doing control the party, but one
would think after advocating GER !
tain line of action for year, as the /,
News says 1t has, and failed, if it is |
really and truly democratic in its
principles, it would come back to the
party and take up the work along reg
ular lines. The cardinal principle
of democracy is the right of the ma
Jority to rule. If the News cannot
agree with the action of the majority
OF the democratic party, and cannot
support Its candidates, it should have
the manliness TO say SO, and surren-
der Its claim TO democratic support.
This the News has not done, but the
action OF the state central COMMITTEES
and democratic clubs throughout the

False Fire Alarm.

A false fire alarm was sent In from
the silk mill about ten minutes after
six last evening to see what quick time
could be made in getting to fire with
the new hose wagoni A team OF horses
had just been unhitdhed from cab at
Burns livery stable (and had harness on
yet when alarm was given and the team
was hitched into hose wagon and start
ed for the fire. Mr.. Dawson, superin-
tendent of silk MILL says it was just
four minutes from time alarm was given
until the firemen had the hose attached
and water turned onA silk mill. Only
couple of the firemen and Mr.. Dawson
knew that the speed Of the fire company
was to be tested. Bert Burns, who
drove the team, did not know anything
about the arrangements and he drove
like Jebu. 1t certainly required very
quick work to hitch team to wagon,
drive to silk mill, attach hose to plug
and have water turned on In four
minutes.
