quest came also for assistance. On
tie strength of the report the dispatch.

Although it is stated that there is
practical cessation or deadlock in
the negotiations for treaty between
the United States and China covering
the question of the admission Of
Chinese to this country, the existing
laws on the subject are sufficient to
prevent any serious embarrassment
over the matter. It is claimed that
these laws will not stand the test Of
our Federal courts, but this is denied.
If they should be found defective it
would be easy to amend them. The
fear that because Of the lack of q
treaty with China some contingency
might arise which would permit 8
large number of coolies to enter this
country is not we'll founded. The
executive department of the Govern
ment would doubtless be equal to
keeping out any such influx until
Congress could take the necessary
action to keep the bars up.

A Warning to Idaho.

1t Is good to see that wide-awake
citizens OF Idaho take note OF the
American victory in Salt Lake as a
frightening OF their own sky. The
same dangers threaten them (though
In lesser degreel that have plunged
Utah into depression and almost de.

control of trade, industry, and the
family exchequer, to the nomination,
election, and appointment OF officials

county, and state-that has been the
undoing OF Utah, Is fastening itself
upon Idaho.
But little while, little longer
prevalence Of the inert, dangerous In.
difference, and Americans In Idaho
will have to make the same fight that
Americans In Utah are making. Yet
little:more sutferance of the ecclesi
astical encroachments, and the fight
will be forced. For 1t Is not In the
nature OF things that In the ultimate
pinch, the Americans of Idaho will
lie down and be walked over by this
monstrons, all-embracinp ecclesias-
tical machine, any more than It was
possible for the Americans OF Utah
to submit to 1t.
Idaho Is a great state. IL Is re-
ceiving mighty influx OF population
aud OF capital. 1t Is free state,
and wants to enjoy its freedom, and
to continue In the favor with which
it is now regarded in the investment
world. And we say, long may 1t be
so. But the price of that liberty,
that favor, is watchfulness. If there
ever shall arise In Idaho a condition
where the hierarcbic octopus can
with any show OF reason lay claim tn
the dominance OF business that 1t
now exercises over politics, then Ida
hos days OF advancement aud pros
perity will be over; the effort will be

tithing- house receipts. The control
of the Mormon machine In Idaho's
politics threatens to become absolute
That machine dictated-for pledges
asked OF others and refused, but con-
ceded by the successful aspirant--the
selection of the latest United States
Senator chosen In Idaho. That dom
ination has been strengthened since
that time. 1t is now supreme In one
party, TO that party's shame If 1t
shouli obtain control OF the other
party also, nothing would remain for
loyal Idaboans but union without
regard to party lines, to throw of
that lnsolent, rotten, corrupt control.
And fortunately there are enough
genuine Americans in Idaho to do
this when the time comes, as 1t surely
will, that the evil, treacherous rule
OF priestcraft can no longer be borne.
