HE JUST HAPPENED TO FOLLOW.

In Philadelphia the morning of Memorial Day
few years ago, was wondering what should do all
to see-what it was. When I turned the corner saw
regiment Of soldiers with beautiful array Of flowers
made the shapes Of flags guns, anchors harps and
wreaths They marching to the cemetery and T
decided to follow them, waited for them to pass
but there great soldiers than thought
walked along beside them. When they reached the
cause quite crowd had gathered at the gates. The
soldiers went in first and the people followed. The
to large monument dedicated to the soldiers of the
civil war and all the flowers put around it. Then
few speeches made and soldiers passed
around programs which songs that everybody
sang There was light shower, but the came
out and there rainbow. By the time this
it grew dark and everybody went home with something
to remember. Roy Bower

THE THINGS HE WORE.

Two years ago, this coming Memorial
Day, my grandfather was marshal at
the head of the parade and I rode be-
side him on pony. I wore pair Of
yellow leggings, soldiers cap, sash
and several army badges, while the bri-
die of my pony was one that had gone
thru the civil war. We rode around
the city for awhile and then went over
where the$services were held On our
way home we stopped at the photograph

cnRpoRAL PUNISHMENT.

A school election was recently
held in this city, at which a new
Board of Directors for the Caldwell
public schools was elected. We be-
Meve that the people of Caldwell
made an excellent choice in selecting
the Board and that the Board at
it's first meeting will forever abolish
corporal punishment in our public
schools. Too long. already, has this
relic of barbarism been permitted to
exist. The sentiment all over the
country is against it. The better
class of people hate 1t, and the lead
Ing educators despise the man or wo-
man who has TO use 1T. When
man or woman cannot command the
respect Of little children; cannot
maintain discipline without the lash;
cannot teach, but must drive; he or
he is not fitted for teacher. Show
rs the man that little children boot
and we will show you man that
,lder people despise. Corporal pun
ishment never did any good. 1t
brutalizes the teacher and terrorizes
the child. II should have gone with
the thumb-screws and the inquisi-
lion. The three were born of the
same parentage-brutality and intol-
terence. The death of the last OF

At a recent meeting of the Board
| of Trustees of Roslyn schools in New
York, Mrs. Clarence MaXey, a men,
Der of the Board of Trustees, took
lp the question of corporal punish
ment.
She stated that even Japan, young
as 1t is in twentieth century civiliZa-

ture and humanity, has abolished
corporal punishment in its schools
Mrs. Mackey did not entirely abolish
corporal punishment, but she has
so restricted its use that hencefortf

COUNTY AFFAIRS.

1t is with hope, courage, and en-
thusiasm that the Republicans of
Canyon county look forward to the
coming campaign. The party is har-
monious and united. 1t Is lead ma
tiOnally by one of the strongest,
bravest, and ablest men since Lin
coin. The state has been under a
Republican administration for -four
years and during that time 1t has ex-
perienced a wonderful growth and
development. While the Republican
party may not be exclusively respon-
sible for this condition, yet the ex-
istance of the condition tends to
make people let well enough alone.
During that period, affairs of state
have been admirably and successfully
administered. Not charge of graft
or corruption, has ever been serious
ly made. The issue presented by SEN
ator Dubois for the campaign is one
that the Republican party can easily
meet. 1t is as unstable as stairs oil
sand, and equally fictitious with
other latter day Democratic vagar.

are even more promising. The count!
Is in fine condition. Our county gov
rnment has been wisely and eco
nomically conducted. We have ha,
honest and competent men in charge
and 1t is not likely that the PEG
| pie OF this county will experiment
| with Democratic administration a
this time, especially as the Democrat
have no criticisms to make and n,
improvements to offer. The com
missioners have looked after tn,
county's affairs with fidelity; and tn,
other officers have been well filled
The Republicans of this county hav,
good cause for congratulation. Sue
cess Is assured. The only DANCE
is that they may be too sure.

Nature and society have ever been

The shaft of death Is never wavered

Is right. 1t were better for a hun
bred mothers to break their hearts
than for criminal debauchery to go
on. The sons that have been con-
taminated by the common prostitute
must suffer. They cannot escape, and
pious hypocrisy will not cover up
the shame or secret the crime. While

tinues. men and boys are being de-
bauched. and the evil is spreading,

always an unpleasant duty. At times
IL seems needless and cruel, and
perhaps at times IL Is, but when a
crime goes on and is q menace Ia

We know the News would not spread

believe that the News also has the
moral courage to expose the persons

mons are still free to act as they
choose politically, and the only harm
that can come to them from misjudg-
ment or misuse of their enfranchise-
ment Is the same that other citizens
must or ought to suffer for misuse.
Some Mormons accept political advice
from the hierarchy and some do not,
the hierarchy meantime advising and
acting as it thinks best. The great
life insurance companies and other
corporations and institutions, the
partisan campaign workers, the can
didates and others, similarly seek to
influence and sometimes to debauch
the electorate, but We have not heard
yet that moral suasion is unlawful, or
Of the Mormons. The original cru
SADIE against them on the score of po-
lygamous practices has about fat
tened out and the rather vague ac-
cusation of church influence contain
ng as it undoubtedly does more or
less fact, is about all that remains,
but as a result of the crusade of SEN
atOr Dubois from one side and U. s.
Attorney Ruick from the other, we
| expect to soon see this improper and
mbversive practice discontinued so
Jar as the authorities can safely dis
continue advice, political, religious or
otherwise, to their dependent and ig-
norant converts. even If the crusaders
ne crushed in the process. The de-
selopment of yesterday, bringing such
unexpected achievements to Sena-
tor Dubois side, is regarded as apt
70 carry important political conse-
quences with 1t, but careful persons
will not take hasty judgment or alter
any well-formed intentions until the
origin and motive of the outbreaR
and the reliability of the accusations
are more definitely cleared up.

THE MORMON MENACE.

Several weeks ago there appeared
in The Tribune an article on the Nor
mon question which attracted some
attention, particularly from the Salt
Lake Tribune and other radical anti
Mormon papers. The gist OF The
rribune's article was that an honest
attempt to influence public opinion
by religious men and women was not
deplorable, and though 1t were 1t
could not be helped. We are pleased
to be substantiated in our argument
by such an able paper as the Lew
iston Tribune. The Lewiston Trib-
une il without question the ablest
edited Democratic paper in Idaho.
We reproduce an editorial in a re-
cent issue of that paper, in reference
TO an alleged statement by United
States Attorney Ruick:
Whatever may have been the con-
dition or the circumstances under
which the attack upon the Mormons
was made by the United States dis
trict attorney for Idaho. Mr.. Ruick,
the result Is interesting and import
ant II seems to show in the first
place that even In the apparently
most friendly quarters there is dis
trust of the Mormon hierarchy as a
political mechanism and an underly-
ing resentment against the Mormons
as a sect IL not as individuals because
of their peculiar institutions. This.
as the Tribune In the beginning point
ed out, is one of the penalties that
must necessarily and properly fall
upon any body of people whose rites,
interests or inclinations tended to
| make them clannish and separate
from the assimilated body of Ameri-
can citizenship. As the Mormons
withdrew into themselves II was in
evitable that In the long run they
would find themselves isolated by the
rest; and even by those who were
willing to use them In their politics
or interests they were at least re-
garded with suspicion and dislike. as
the federal legal head of the state has
so graphically shown. This, we re-
peat. is the inevitable penalty. The
impossible penalty Is that proposed
by the Democratic organization foI
regulating the ecclesiastical and po'
litical affairs OF this sect by special
legislation when the organic law, oil
! social pact. prohibits such ies,s!a:io,
and when the Democratic creed espe
cially would cease to be Democratic
whenever II attempted to interfere
with political and religious hbert,
where no existing law was being yto
lated. The republicans. whose creet
bears no such construction or limita
