TIME old melodies are the ones that
find their way most surely to the
heart. Even in lands where
English is foreign tongue their charm
holds its own, and have sung them in
nearly every civilized country OF the
world. The appealing quality of " Home,
Sweet Home" is the same in South
America that it is in New-York, and
in Berlin that it is in London.
No matter what lofty flights in other
directions the singer may take, if the
old songs are sung with heart and beauty
of tone they meet with welcome that
is beyond that of all Others. Through
memories and association they are a
part of every life.

moderate drinkers. The hypocrites
do not want prohibition to prevail
because that would end the agita-
ton and rob them of the glory aud
emolument of posing as great and
good reformers. The moderate
drinkers do not want prohibition
because they do not want to be de-
MED the privilege of doing that
which contributes to their happ1-
ness without, appreciably, injuring
their regulations or impairing their
health or usefulness.
The moderate drinkers argue
thus: Because some men make
fools of themselves, because some
are afflicted with uncomfortable ap-
petites, are we who are wise and in
perfect control of our appetites to
be punished as though we were of
the foolish and incontinent? There
is undoubtedly merit in the argu-
ment of moderate drinkers. More
over, they are perfectly honest and
sincere, therefore constitute the
most powerful opposition with
which Prohibitionists have to con-
tend. If only moderate drinkers
can be won over, the battle for Pro-
hibition is won. Indeed there
would be no need of prohibitive
legislation. If those who never
drink to excess, never get drunk,
never experience any strong desire
to drink, would only refrain from
drinking for two years, the liquor
traffic would perish, the saloon
would disappear almost entirely
from the land, and there would be
left but few relics of the havoc
caused by intemperance during all
the past ages.

THE INSURREcTIONESTS

A Boise newspaper says that il
has discovered within the Republi
can party a cabal organized for the
express purpose of embarrassing and
bringing into disrepute the head Of
the present State administration
We rather suspect that the Boise
paper has made the discovery as al.
legged. It wasn't much of a discov.
cry to make. The fact of the ex-
istence of disgEIntled faction has
been notorious for several weeks.
In % hours after the speakership
contest terminated, it began to take
form and develop activity. But,
this disgruntled faction is not go
ing to do much harm. At the ut
most its influence cannot extend be-
You'd a few counties in the south
western part of the State, and even
IN those 1t will not have full sway.
The more this cabal kicks and
squeals and bowls and cavorts about,
the more firmly will be knit the
bonds of alliance between the North
and SOUTHEAST. The politicians
OF Boise who are at the head of this
faction, are putting themselves safe.
ly within the jaws of a wise, which
Jaws every two years come together,
and which when they next come
together will pinch the immortal
life out of the aforesaid Boise poll
tIcians and drop their dead fiat re-
mains into the political junk pile.
We would warn the gallant insur-
rectionary leaders that they are pi-
lotlng a forlorn hope. 1t is not
within their power to shape the
destiny of Governor Cooling,
They may be able to torment him
more or less, as did the Boise
Statesman, but like unto that proud
and noble exponent of righteous
ness, they, the insurrectionary CAP
talns, may, like unto the Statesman,
ind their greatest pleasure and
profit in groveling at Gooding's
feet, and making the surrounding
atmosphere vibrant with their songs

GOOD REPORT

Gentlemen who have had oppor.
tunity to confer with Governor
Gooding give excellent report Of
his attitude ON public questions.
On matters of legislation he is
frank and outspoken. To one gen.
tlemau, he said: II intended to
have bills introduced covering every
subject recommended in my mes
sage. Before doing so, however, 1
want to advise with the people and
their representatives as much as
possible. If anything I have rec
orntIended is not for the best inter-
ests Of the State at large, I want to
know 1t. I want it pointed out to
me. I want people to come to me
and tell me frankly just what they
think, Noneof us, imagine, want
bad legislation, and / am sure I do
not. What want is that Idaho
shall have the best possible legisla-
ton, and propose to give the best
administration of which am cap
able. All the State officers feel as
| do in this matter. So, 10 not
hesitate to tell us just what you
think and tell it straight out. If
among the things have recon-
Inended some are good, help me en-.
act these recommendations into
laws"
Although the Governor is very
busy, he always has time to be cor
dial and sociable to visitors. even
the humblest. He has great capac-
ity for disposing OF work and is an
lndefatigable worker. All of this
1t is pleasant to know. 1t shows
that the Governor has right ideas;
that he is not afflicted with any ego
tistical misconception of his own
greatness and intallibility. 1t gives
promise of a sound, progressive ad-
miuistration.

LOCAL OPTION

A local option bill has made its
appearance in the legislature. It
provides that upon petition of one
tenth of the voters in any county,
city, village or precinct, the proper
authorities shall submit the ques-
ton, at the ensuing general cleo
tton' Shall Intoxicating liquors be
sold within the territory described
in the petition?
The liquor question, like most
other questions, has two sides to it,
Upon the one side are arrayed the
dealers and the great body of mod
crate or temperate indulgers. Up
on the other side will be found tee
totalers, earnest moralists and a lot
OF long faced hypocrites who have
attached themselves to the cause of
temperance for purely selfish and
mercenary purposes. The real vic
tins OF intemperance are generally
non-combatants. They are never
heard from except, as now and
then, one reforms and is moved to
make some effort to warn Others
against the awful pitfalls into which
excess had plunged himself.
In every attempt which has eyer
been made to prohibit the sale Of
Intoxicating liquors, the most seri-
Gus obstacles to success have been
the long faced hypocrites and the |
