on labor leaders by perjure1 testi-
mony. In lawlessness perhaps there
is not much to choose between the
owners and the workmen, and at any
ton. 1t is never wise in the long run
to allow popular emotion, local or
general, to interfere with the course
of justice. The case of the Chicago
anarchists is now looked upon rather
widely by conservative men as a gross
wrong perpetrate1 to appease null
titude. The Idaho and Colorado sit
uation is notably different, for If the
miners are a violent lot, nothing bet
ter can be said for the owners The
outside world should insist sternly on
justice without regard to the relative
sins of capital and labor 1t is a pure
matter of law and evidence relating
to a specific crime, and no considera-
tons of sympathy or antipathy, for
either body concerned should be al
lowed the slightest weight Idaho has
the opportunity to earn considerable
credit or immense disgrace. We in
no degree PREJUDICE this case. It is
complicated and remote. But there
are circumstances which raise sus
picion of collision between the mine
owners and the authorities, and Idaho
owes it to herself that this suspicion
should be removed"

The American" administration was
asked by the ministers to prohibit Sun
day liquor selling. Did it do it?
Not much. The saloons are open
seven days week, day and night.
The ministers demanded that the
American" administration use it's
best efforts to purge the city from the
social evil, but not a single thing has
been done in that direction. 1t is as
rampant and fragrant as ever.
Truth many times before election
pointed out that the American" par
ty leaders were insincere; that they
were fooling the people just for the
purpose of capturing the offices and
the emoluments thereof, legitimate
and otherwise. So far the results have
amply demonstrated the correctness
of our position. Wonder If the min.

A proposition made to the Ladies'
Relief Corps of the Mexican G. A. r..
post by representative of the Daugh-
tiers of the Confederacy to assist in
the ceremonies of decorating the
graves of soldiers on the approaching
Memorial day was ruthlessly turned
down. 1t is regretable that after
nearly half century has passed there
are few bigots still ready to perpet-
uate and maintain hatreds and ami
mosities engendered in cause that
has long since passed into oblivion. Is
it possible that these few fanatics have
already forgotten the lesson taught in
the late Spanish-American war, when
the soldiers of the South and the
North shoulder to shoulder fought
their way to the top of San Juan hill,
with their life's blood mingling with
each other? Was there any question,
any doubt of loyalty to the old flag
then? Truth ventures to say that
in no other city in the west would
such a request as that made by the
Daughters of the Confederacy have
been rejected Nor can it believe that
a majority of the Mexican Relief
Corps would approve so ungracious an
action.

Truth thinks the refusal of this gov
eminent to accept contributions from
foreign nations for the relief of the
San Francisco sufferers was a great
mistake. In the first place, the money
will be needed, and badly needed, to
even partially relieve the distressed,
Notwithstanding the very liberal con-
tributions of this government and the
American people. The full magnitude
of the disaster has not yet been re-
allied. Temporary relief for approx
mately 100000 people rendered home
less is all that has been afforded. 1t
will be a long time before those des.
titute people will have become self.
sustaining again. In the second place,
the refusal of the proffered assistance
was directly contrary to the grand the
DRY of the brotherhood of man. Be-
cause men and women happen to live
in Japan, France, Germany, England
or anywhere else is poor reason why
their sympathy and aid for their fell
lows who live in America should not
be accepted. Accepting the kindly
proffer would not have detracted one
whit from the dignity and glory of the
United States. The refusal savors Of
vainglory and buncombe.

Under the heading Idaho on
Trial." Golfers Weekly has the fol-
lowing sensible and conservative ar
ticle regarding Meyer and Haywood,
the alleged murderers of Governor
Steunenberg:
"The trial of Meyer and Haywood
for the murder of Governor Steunen-
berg of Idaho, has been postponed,
and now promises to begin this month.
So sharply has the public eye been
fixed upon this complicated affair that
we fancy a fair trial will be assured.
Certainly if the forms of law are not
complied with, and if the substance
of justice is not done, the country will
know of the failure, as plenty of first
class correspondents will watch the
progress of the trial. The report of
the Department of Commerce and La
Dor on this case was extremely dam
aging to the mine-owners, practically
accusing them not only of lawlessness,
but of conspiracy to fasten a crime

Speaking of the statement made by
Rev. DR.. Shaw that some newspaper
reporters lie, the State Journal says
that reporters never lie for the purpose
Of injuriny anybody and that news
papers do not hire liars to work for
them. 1t is some years since the
State Journal writer worked on the
Salt Lake Tribune. That paper in re-
cent years pays a premium for ma
licious and wilful lying-such lying as
Injuries men and women and their
families. Those it hires are probably
not liars when it hires them, but it
does its utmost to make them so.

1t is fact worthy of remembrance
that the members of the Ministerial
association and a great many of tho
members of the Evangelical churches
were among the most ardent support
ers of the so-called American" party.
The church people and the ministers
were led to believe that the "Ameri-
can" party stood for Christian princi-
pies; that it would purge the city as
thoroughly as possible from vice. Such
were the professions of the leaders OF
the party. What has the party done
since 1t took the reins of government
towards making good those professions
and promises? 1t made bluff, only
a bluff, at stopping gambling; gam
bling has not been stopped, by any
means. No honest effort has been
made to stop it. The admins
tration closed for the time being
one dancing pavilion on the ground
that it was an immoral place. That's
all that even its press organ claims
has been done in the way of reform.
The ministers and their church
friends earnestly asked the city coun-
ell to prohibit theatres from running
on Sundays. The. American" mem.
bers of the council defeated a resolu-
ton framed for that purpose, while
the other members fought hard for
the measure, but, being in the minor
ity, were unable to effect its passage.
The ministers asked the American"
administration to prohibit prize fight
which was being arranged for. In
stead of stopping the fight the admin
istration aided and abetted it, issued
license for tie fight to take place, and
helped 1t along. At the solicitation of
the ministers, the county attorney and
the sheriff, neither of whom belongs
to the so-called American" party,

SAN FRANCISCO: REBUILDING.

"On the day after Cannae, the
greatest of even Hannibal's victories"
says the Washington Post, "the Ro-
man senate offered for sale the land
on which the Carthaginian army was
encamped That was the spirit which
world" That, too, The Post points
out, is the spirit of San Francisco, for,
as the Baltimore News declares, "it is
known that before the fire was
checked, plans for rebuilding were be-
gun, and even orders for structural
material were given out" Indeed,
while the fire was still in progress
Mayor Mcclellan received from Mayor
Schmitz this inquiry: How many ar
chitects and architectural drafts
men can you furnish us, and how
quickly can they leave for San Fran
cisco?" Confidence and courage, like
that, says the Detroit Free Press,
compel admiration" The fact is, in
the words of the Wall Street Journal,
this nation cannot spare San Fran
cisco any more than it can spare New
York or Chicago or New Orleans. She
is needed, where her ashes now lie,
as the gateway to the Hawaiian is
lands, our watch tower in the Pacific.
She is indispensable as a strategic fac
tor in our influence in Asia. We
must not weaken an toto, but ever be
strong at that point of vantage for our
own sake" That city, as well in
formed writer in the New York Sun
puts it, sis metropolis not by the
hand of man, but by the act of God"
He adds:
ut does not exist because lines of
transportation have agreed upon it as
a site, but because it is the only nat
ural site, the only possible site for the
port of entry and the metropolis to
California and all the country which
lies back of it to the Rockies"

The final trade statistics for the
year 1905 confirm the figures of the
preliminary forecasts and show a phe-
nomenal degree Of prosperity through
out the country. So enormous was the
product of farm, mine and factory that
had it been moved at one time it would
have filed 3a,1S4.857 freight cars, A.
100000 more than would have been
required In the prosperous year O:
1904. Thirty-three million freight cara,
II made up into one train of fabulous
length, would extend for a distance of
224,4OO miles, or would girdle the
earth about nine times at the equator.
If this mythical train, with the 1926, 1000
locomotives which would be required
to haul 1t, had travelled out into space
OF trip to the moon, the leading mo-
guls would have been putting through
the valleys Of earth's satellite before
the conductors buggy had rumbled out
Of the freight yards at the starting
point. Merely to store the cars and
engines in such train would require
the use Of nearly all the railway mile
age in the United States.
One Of the most striking examples
of the vast increase In the volume Of
business for the year is to be found In
the western livestock industry. During
the summer and In the fall of 1905 the
tourist on any Of the big western trunk
lines caught flying glimpses Of stock
pens filled with long-horned, ferocious-
looking steers, focks Of huddled sheep
and carloads of horses and mules. AL
these pens were filed and emptied
many times during the year. each con-
tributing its quota to the enormous
total Of livestock that was ship
ped from the trans NJ Mississippi ter
ritory to the markets Of Chicago, Kan
sas City, Omaha, and st. Joseph, a
total that Appropriated 38,OOO,OOO
head. This multitude Of animals con-
stituted 678,369 carloads, 10000 more
than were required in 1904 and 10000
more than In 1902.
In the grain trade the American
farmers are still increasing their out
put and adding to the strength of our
claim to be called the granary of the
world. The reports for 1905 from
twelve private primary grain markets
show that there has been poured Into
them from their tributary territory the
enormous quantity Of 10000, 900
bushels Of grain, to be distributed from
these primary markets to all corners
Of the globe. American grain to-day
