There Is one plank In the demo-
cratic platform at least, in which the
republicans as well as the democrats
will generally agree upon, and that is
the plank against the ''six bit" In
surance companies. A company Or
ganized TO insure against loss which
takes advantage Of technicalities,
when the loss occurs, Though no
fault of the insured, deserves to be
ostracized and driven from business.
The company which assumes that it

The plank i'm the democratic plat
form, pledging the party to enact a
board of health law for the control of
contagious and infectious diseases,
should have the unanimous support
Of the people of the state regardless
OF party. Idaho is the only state in
the Union which does not have a
state law upon the statute books
There have been several bills intro
duced In the legislature with this
end in view, but the interests which
this law would effect and incrimin-
ate have fought the hills, and the re-
suit has been that no systematic ef-
fort can be made for the control of
the most virulent and contagious dis
eases. This is law that the Nor
mons viii not permit il it is in their
power to prevent. If there was such
"A law enacted it would be the duty of
midwives Or physicians to report
every death as well as every birth.
Those Mormons living in polygamy
woul1 not care to have 1t reported
that woman had given birth to a
child and that Bishop Budd, for in
stance, was the father, when 1T was
conclusively proven that the mother
was not the legitimate wife of the
bishop. In every case where this bill
was before the legislature the Nor.
mons have surly defeated 1T. If
there is such bill ever enacted into
law IT will have to be done by dem
ocratic Legislature, as there is no
hopes that the republican party will
thus hetray their colleagues.

The Daily Statesman takes excep-
tions to the plank In the democratic
platform which advocates the cleo
ton OF judges should be taken out
Of politics, and thinks the plank is
meaningless. Judge Stewart Is a
very able judge, and no one questions
his honesty In the least, and he likely
would have been endorsed by the
democrats OF the state had not re-
publican Legislature made 1t impos-
sibIe to have placed his name on
more than one ticket. The only way
the democrats could have endorsed
his candidacy would have been to
have left that Office blank, which the
convention was not disposed to do.

balls Of congress during period In
which Doodle and corruption In high
places ran riot. he returns 10 his con-

log 10 Idaho national aid for the
great irrigation enterprises that are
now making the deserts OF Idaho the
garden spots OF the world.
We heartily indorse the policy OF

essentially democratic.
For irrigation CoNssess.
Approaching the great advantages
that will come To our state from the
meeting Of the fourteenth National
Irrigation congress TO be held In
Boise September = TO y. inclusive, we
pledge our legislature To work for
the appropriation OF $1,000 or so
much thereof as may be needed to
assist In defraying the expenses OF
said congress.
We are heartily In favor OF munich
pal ownership Of public utilities.
We believe that the time has come
when there should be a revision OF
the present tariff to meet the condi.
lions OF the country today.
Denounce State Administration.
We eby..denounce In unmeasured
terms the gross willful, extravapant
and corrupt manner In which the
present state administration has con-
Quoted the state government during
the past two years. We condemn
the present state administration for
the manner la which the business OF

The political campaign this fall
gives promise of being strenuous
one. but we should not forget that
there are other things that are OF
greater benefit to the citizens Of Sal
mon, both singly and collectively.
While we are worrying our minds
over politics don't let Us forget that
tie organization Of a Chamber OF
Commerce would be of benefit to
every taxpayer of the county as well
as every man who earns his bread by
the sweat of his brow We believe
1t Is safe to say that from three to
live millions Of outside capital could
be brought in and Invested in i'm
prOvements to che country could our
resources be brought to the minds Of
capitalists in an intelligent manner.
The only way to do this is to take
hold OF the matter in common sense
way by getting our business interests
together working In common cause.
