Passing Of the Platitude-

With the decadence of bitter po-
litical feeling and the knowledge
that party differences do not after
all as vitality concern their welfare
as do questions of corporate aggre-
sion or religious freedom, the people
of IDAHO are taking politics and
political utterances less seriously.
This is most aptly illustrated in
the humor with which the Demo-
cratic platitude-laden platform is
now accepted.
The average Democratic political
platform is ninety-nine parts bun
combe and one part facts. 1t is
like most similar expressions, a
prefunctory document made up by
one man in control who was and is
more anxious to formulate a series
of ringing" expressions than to
soberly consider the purposes and
aims of political action. 1t is not
without reason that people have
come 10 disregard such a platform
and to look behind and beyond it
to the candidates, to their personal
record and adaptability to Office.
Democratic promises are SO often
disregarded nowadays that the full
fillment of one is an occasion for
surprise. 1t is not parties nor plat
forms that are needed to save the
country, but honest, resolute men
who are not afraid to take the con
sequences of impartial, fearless
duty.-Pocatello Tribune.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER %, 1906.
Voters Must Register.

There are no exceptions what
ever; every person who desires to
vote at the coming election must
register or his vote will not be re-
ceived. There is no provision in
the late law for swearing in votes,
as formerly. This year your name
must be on the list before election
day or you will not be permitted
to cast your ballot. A. A. Getchell
is registrar at Silver City, and all
other precincts in the county have
registrars, who will have their books
open every Saturday prior to cleo
ton. If you fail to attend to this
matter you will lose your vote,

Notice to Taxpa yers.

All taxes for the year 1906 are now
due, and will become delinquent on
January, 1907, and unless paid prior to
that date ten per cent penalty will be
added thereon, and such other costs as
may be provided by law.

it will be the republicanism of to-
morrow. Look back for a mo-
ment over the last few years
full years measured in wealth,
great years measured in nation
al glory. Look at the record:
The stimulating and energizing
Of civic life; the fearless cleansing
OF the sheltered and fostering
spots in the public service; the
enforcement of the criminal ele-
ment in business and the crimi-
nal element in politics; the adj
justment of civic government to
a strange and foreign people in
a cline where republican institu-
tions seemed impossible; the adj
justment of the anthracite coal
strike which Judge Gray declared
to be the greatest crisis since the
civil war; the making possible
the Panama canal; the railroad
rate bill; the meat inspection
bill; the merger fight, everything
which touches, elevates, protects
undergraduates citizenship-this
is republicanism in this hour; and
the continuation of the work,
the standing by the men and the
party who achieved all-this is
the vital issue of the campaign. +"

Hay for Poultry.

The suggestion that hay makes a
good winter food for poultry would
have been ridicll!od a few years ago
but experiments have proved that
clover hay is now almost a necessary
portion Of a hens cold weather diet
Glover hay for fowls should be cut
very fine. not over half an inch in
length, steamed and scalded and fed
once a day. A small quantity Of corn
meal and bran sprinkled over the cut
hay will improve it. One reason clover
is such an excellent food for hens is
that it is rcll in lime, a substance the
hens require in providing the shells
for eggs. It is about equal to corn
as flesh producer and contains near
ly so times as much lime. 1t is plenti-
full on all farms and requires but little
time in preparation. After the green
food is gone it will keep the hens in
laying condition and increase the pro.
ductiOn of eggs.

KEEPING OUT MITES.
How the Poultry Raiser Can Keep His
Hen House Clean.

The successful poultry raiser has
learned how to keep out mites. 1t
may we'll be doubted if any successful
poultry raiser can be found whose
houses are teeming with mites
Among the ways Of keeping Off the
mites are the following:
Have house that is light and
large enough for the flock, and sec
to it that it is we'll ventilated
Have the roosts, nests, dropping
boards and all fixtures removable, SO
they can be cleaned perfectly, easily
and often.
Do not permit filth Of any kind tC
accumulate in this house. but make
sure that it is cleaned often.
The advice given by some is tc
treat the house once in two weeks tc
dusting with air-slaked lime and sui
Dhur.
The boxes for the sitting hens
should be washed in kerosene or
crude petroleum before being used
in the Matching operations The straw
in such boxes should be burned aftel
the hen is through sitting.
Lastly. watch the entire poultry es
tablishment tc make sure that mites
do not get start.

Put on the Tobacco Lid for
Minors.

In Owatonns the tobacco lid is being
applied. A notice has been sent out
to aid tobacco dealers that hereafter
they shall not sell to any pupil
in that city nor to any other person
under the age of eighteen years, any to-
baeoo nor give to them amy cigaret
papers. And the offenders are warned
that they will be punished to the full
extent of the law; those who do'in
some manner obtain the. necessary
"makings" are likewise warned that
they shall be given five days in the city
jail if they shall be caught smoking on
the streets. A noticeable decrease in
the sale of tobacco is said to have al
ready resulted. Why is the E'lid" not
applied in Rochester? Minnesota has
most stringent anti-cigayet and tobac-
co law, which if enforced would pre-
vent the use of tobacco by school
children, which is SO painfully appar-
ents 1t isn't that we lack law enough
but that we fail to enforce it. Appar-
entity school board and Officers permit
the Jaw to be tiagrantly dealt with un-
der their aeses without g word of pro-
test. When boys OF fine character and
splendid ability are allowed to go smok-
ing to school, to smoke at school and
to smoke coming home from the school
it is time to apply legal means to pre-
vent the use Of the rcotic-Roches-
ref Runetin.

!: :z=.Pay: ): of Congressman.

The Detroit journal says $4,000 rs
handsome pay for a. congressman, and
that it is absurd to: ask more. The Du-
luth Herald says that sum is ample for
some congressman, but it is very little
indeed for those who make their ser.
vices worth while to the people, and II
hardly seems fair to base the compen-
sation Of all of them upon the meager
deserts of a few of them.
The Herald added that "possi5ly re
course might be had to the suggestion
of the Mankato Free Press, that there
be sliding scale of pay for lawmakers,
based on ability and usefulness, but
that would be a fearful task for who:
ever it was that had to make the scale
and adjust the various statesmen to
it,"
Speaking seriously there is no reason
for al increase in the pay Of congress
men. They should live the simple life
and not indulge in extravaganza
With All increase in the pay of congress
men, other government servants will
seek an advance in salaries. This
country was founded upon the principle
of democratic simplicity, but unfortu
nately it has drifted away from the
original idea. We indulge teo much il
fnery and attempt to initiate the roya
houses OF European nations. Let u!
get back to first principles, cut dow1
expenses and give the .>people a res
