Philippine tariff bill. | had the
confidence and aid Of Senator Hey
burn and Congressman French"
In regard to tariff Legislation the
Senator expressed the belief tina,
President Roosevelt will insist upon
revision of the tariff IN the next
congress.
The Senator further declared that
he was heartily in accord with the
presidents forest reserve and irrlga-
tion policies and would uphold him
as strongly as possible IN his efforts
for the reclamation Of arid lands
and the preservation of our forests.
Coming down to state issues, the
Senator thus expressed himself:
s'As | stated, there are no very
great differences of opinion among
the people of Idaho in regard to any
political issues. There is one ques-
ton, however, which is of great
concern to the people of Idaho. The
Mormon hierarchy intends to dom
mate the politics of Idaho as it dom
mates the politics of Utah. Polyg-
amous living is as common in Idaho
as it is in Utah, and new poIygamous
marriages are being contracted in
Idaho as they are in Utah. The
democratic party In our last cam
paign demanded legislation for the
punishment of those living in
polygamy IN our state. and laws to
curb the political power of the hier
archy. The Mormons in Idaho
voted against The party which insist
ed that such laws should be enacted.
The republicans promised on the
stumo that they would pass adequate
laws, if given the power. They
failed most miserably TO redeem this
promise. The democratic party will
again demand in the state conven.
ton that there be complete separ-
alton of state and church in our
politics, and that those living In
tpolygamy, and those "ho are bring
ing children into the world contrary
to the laws Of God and man should
be punished.
In closing his interview Senator
Dubois expressed the opinion thai
Senator Reed Smoot of Utah will
lose his seat next winter, regardless
of whether the senate decides to ex
pei him by two-thirds vote or ex
clude him by majority vote.

EDITOR CITIZEN:-It is known that
the people of lower Lancaster have es-
tablished private telephone line which
is blessing to those people. 1t saves
money at times; it saves drives over
bad roads, and in several places where
these private phones are installed, it
has been known to save lives. It is
well to be in Communication with YOUR
doctor, with friends and relatives.
Now. why can't such phones be in
stalled through this section? I believe
they can be, and put in at reasonable
price. i suggest a way: Let every
person who wants one of these phones
subscribe some stock, and / believe in a
short while there would be but very
few homes that would not have one.
These phones are in nearly every
county. Now that it has been started in
this county why can't it be adopted in
other parts of the county as well as the
lower parts All that has to be done is
to get together and stick at it. Stick
at it, and success can be made. Would

NEW LAWS FOR GASOLINE BOATS.

A bill that recently passed the U. S.
Senate is now before the House of Re-
presentatives, which affects all vessels
under 10 tons engaged in running pas
sengers for hire, but does not apply to
vessels that are used for freight or tow
ing purposes. Pleasure boats and boats
for personal convenience are not in
cluded in the new law. A special fea-
ture in the bill is that no examination
shall be required as condition of OBJ
tanning such license. The bill also re-
quires that no boat carrying passengers
shall be operated or navigated except
in charge of person duly licensed for
such service by the local board of sup
ervising inspectors. 1t is also con-
dition that vessels carrying passengers
for hire shall be required to carry a
life preserver for each passenger. The
law now in force applies to vessels of
15 tons or over carrying passengers or
freight or towing, and required licensed
pilot and licensed engineer.
