Brady of Idaho.
Pocatello Tribune

Z
Here is what the Salt Lake Repub-
lican has to say of the man of whom
the Gem state is mighty proud:
1t must be gratifying to James H.
Brady to look back on the victory he
has won in Idaho. we are very sure
republicans everywhere. and members
of other parties as well, must i'm their
hearts congratulate him. He has ac-
complished very difficult task. And
he is entitled to a vast deal of credit
Z for it.
Mr. Brady was himself candidate
{ for the senate. and had reason to be-
lieve there were thousands Of his fell
low citizens who wanted him for that
place. He met with the Borah pro-
gram, which contemplated getting an
expression from the party in the state
as to who should be the choice of the
legislature. The two men fought
earnestly-but fairly-and the Borah
program was adopted. The election
was held with the effect of committing
legislators to the choice of Mr. Borah
j. as Unified States senator Mr.. Brady
was defeated for the tire. He had
: been a successful chairman Of his
party organization and the party ask
ed him to serve again in that capacity
Never was politician given so fine
an opportunity to prove himself. TIC
succeed would confer honors on the
man who had defeated him. And he
rose to the demand. James Fl. Brady
has proved himself, by his conduct OF
the recent campaign. one Of the big
gest men in all the big west. 1t has
been perfectly inspiring to see him
In his work. Not an incident of the
campaign has been neglected. He has
led the hosts of his party to a victory
which they deserved, but which a
tricky or an incapable che'~man coulo
not have achieved. James II. Brady
is a character to be proud of. He
Is Of the sort from which states are
made. He is of the type which wins
because the right aud the might are
combined in him.
The party is proud of him.
1t happens that Mr.. Borah. who will
be the new United States senator
from Idaho, is fit man for the place
Not thing is left to regret. And
the chairman who won can fittingly
wear the roses of congratulation which
an unnumbered host of appreciativt
friends. near and remote, eheerfulls
send to him.

A MOVE FOR TARIFF REVISION.

1t is growing to be well settled
conviction on the part of many leaders
of the political life of the nation that
the time has come for soma sort Of
tariff revision, and that the matter
will be taken up seriously in the next
congress. In the ante election con-
tests between the revisionists and the
standpatters within the republican
party the contention made by the lat
ter was that the tariff should be re-
vised In the house of its friends. The
standpatters won out but the senti-
ment for tariff revision did not cease
to grow ana was one Of the prominent
issues in the campaign in many states
strongly republican.
Tariff revision is imminent and the
manner and the method Of it has al
ready become matter Of public COM
ment The recently published press
dispatch from Washington that sena-
tor Cullom was selected to make a
move early in the session to provide
for the appointment Of an expert tar
III question il to be taken out OF poll
tics.
Probably this Is only one Of many
plants that will Sbe suggested in the
near future and presented to congress
In the form Of measures to revise tar
III schedules. The prevailing idea Il
to the effect the revision without up,
setting present business conditions
and the argument Is made that this
can best be accomplished when the
country iss enjoying the fullness Of
prosperity. and approached not with
the idea Of making a wholesale re-
vision Of the system. but with the
idea Of trimming out the Inequalities
in other words, of pruning the system
without slashing 1t all over root and
branch. It is a task to which the re-
publican congress will address itself
early In the session and pursue With
out unnecessary delay.

The CyioI Lamp.

DR.. o. Schott of Jena has devised a
modification of the Cooper
mercury vapor lamp of considerable
practical promise. Its novelty depends
on Il new form of glass recently in
vented by DIR. Zchimmer which is i'm
peryious to ultra violet rays. The
Uviol lamp consists of tubes of this
special glass, into the ends of which
platiIeIm wires, which terminate in car
bon heads. are fused. The lamp can
be attached to either 40 or 220 volt
circuit. In the bottom of the tube is Il
quantity of mercury. To start the
lamp it is tilted until the mercury
makes a direct connection between the
two poles AS soon as this happens n
column of brilliant light appears i'll the
tube. The new lamp is particularly
suited for Photographic purposes. Its
light is Il powerful germicide and may
prove valuable in the treatment of GER
tain skin diseases.
