AS to who the successor shall be
to the seat of Senator Alice, only
the future can tell; but it is certain,
that for the welfare of the Repub-
lican party and the State, the choice
should be made in the caucus and
be promptly ratified in open ses-
sion. For ten years the Senatorial
question has hung as a pail over
all legislation, depriving the people
of the right to careful considera-
ton of needed laws and radical
changes in some of the methods OF
Government and County manage
ment. Dispose of the Senatorial
question promptly, and then con-
slider the needs of the people.

THE elections have been a sur
prise to politicians as we'll as to the
people at large, and the results
show plainly that the entire country
is in hearty accord with the poll
cies of President Roosevelt; as it is
to the universal desire to uphold
the hands of his administration,
that the elections in most of the
states have been carried. Here in
Delaware, the Republican party
has triumphed to a surprising de-
gree, and the people have forever
smashed the Democratic assertions
that the elections Of Delaware are
simply barriers and sales of the vo-
tiers. We have yet to hear that
money was used to influence the
result in any of the counties, and
the case was decided on its merits.
The people have triumPhed and
have absolute control, and we hope
to see a far different class of ligisla-
ton at the coming Sc sion of the

He was master of that strategy
which wins in politics. When a
new problem presented itself to the
party or state the leaders looked to
r. H. Davis tor a solution of the
matter. No seduction could allur,
no terrors frighten him. He knew
the heartbeats Of the people. His
superior intellect, combined with
an affableness of manner won
people to any cause he championed,
and then his bearing, his firm ness
his fidelity and logic bound them
to him.
Reese Davis was the soul of
generosity, and no good cause ever
appealed to him in vain for aid,
and hundreds of the recipients of
his big-heartedness, among them
the editor of this paper, will forever
cherish his memory. Success in
life never turned his head. He
was always the same approachable,
| genial gentleman, best liked where
he was best known, and respected
and honored by all.
There is certainly much that is
inspiring in his career as you study
his earnest fight, not only against
his political foes, but fiercely con-
tending with his party friends for
he establishment of the. policies
and principles he believed to be
right. AS writer and thinker he
stood supreme in the state of Idaho
Every paper quoted his editorials
Every politician profited by hi:
advice. Every convention of hi:
party in late years has embodied
some of his ideas i'll its platform
Every legislature has been affected
by his opinions. In Idaho's brigh

welcomed and read by all with
keen enjoyment. A pioneer OF the

where he was an important factor
in all public enterprises. He leaves

REEFS Il. DAVIS.

The death of Rees H. Davis
takes from the ranks of Idaho
journalism a personality not soon
10 be forgotten, nor likely soon to
be replaced. In his own field of
writing he was without a peer in
the Northwest. With his versatile
pen he had made for himself
reputation not often held by those
engaged in country newspaper
work. Confident of his ability TO
steer his own course in any situation
he had made himself a force in the
politics of his state. A staunch
Republican, he ever upheld the
principles of his party; yet, par
tisan though be was in this sense,
it cannot be said he was classed
with any particular faction or wing
of the party. Rather, he chose to
stand upon unknown ground upon
many of the questions that have
confronted the party; net because
he feared to take stand, but be-
cause of his keen appreciation OF
the fact that it took more ability to
maintain such a position without
loss of standing than it did 10 take
an open course. AS he we'll knew,
such ability was his, and he de,
lighted in calling upon it. Often
he found himself in position that
would have meant ridicule to other
writers not so peculiarly gifted, but
as often he emerged from it with
new fame as writer, if not with
added strength as partisan politi-
clan. In such positions his rich
sense of humor invariably saved
him, and those who knew him best
believe that this sense Of humor
. alone led him into many of the
paths he took. No party leader
was too formidable to escape the
shafte of his satire if opportunity
f presented itself; no party policy was
TOO fixed for him to attack it if he
i saw an opening. Even those issues
