The policy that is being pursued
hy the radical social and labor ele-
ment Of Idaho is doing more TO in
sure the denomination of Governor
Goodins than all other forces COM
bined, and if this same policy is
pursued by them throughout the
campaign it will rally to his SUP
port hundreds of democrats who
would otherwise stand by their
party nominee. Elsewhere In this
issue we publish note of warning,
as sounded by the Pocatello Ad-
vance, relative to the effort that is
being made to force upon the people
Of Idaho an issue that should have
no place in politics, but if the issue
must come, we have no fear as to
results. We cannot believe for a
moment that the leaders of the dem
ocratic party in Bear Lake county
will sanction the effort Of the radical
element in the party to make the
Steunenbrg murder an issue IN this
campaign. If they do, they are
not the true friends of Steunenberg
that they professed to be during his
life and at the time of his diabolicaI
murder. Surely the democratic
party in Idaho has not reached that
state when it must try to ride into
power by combining with an ele-
ment which Is oppoted to the fair
and impartial enforcement of the
law. If the democrats at their com
ing state convention, permit a plank
TO be inserted In their platform,
which in any way condemns oul
present state administration for the
course 1t has pursued in attempting
to bring the murderers of ex-Gov
ernor Steunenberg to justice, then
in the language of Col. Henry
Watterson, the party will smarcf

At the graded school here this year
there were nine graduates, only two of
them boys. The Fitting School gradu
ating class was composed of sixteen
twelve girls and four boys. This is the
case all over the State in graded schools
and educational institutions. No mat.
ter what school it is, you will, as a rule,
find more girls graduating than boys. If
this sort of thing keeps up, the women
will have to run the country, for in few
generations the men will not have enough
education to do so.

The future of the Bamberg graded
school looks bright. For years the trus-
tees have labored under great disadvan-
tages, chief of which was lack Of money
and building to accommodate students.
With the erection of the handsome new
building, one difficulty was removed, but
there was not sufficient money to employ
enough teachers or pay adequate salaries.
This has badly handicapped the work of
the board, and, taking all this into con.
sideration, we should feel grateful to
those men who labored earnestly with
out compensation and under great diff
culties to build up frst-class graded
school in Bamberg 1t is only justice to
those who have heretofore served as
trustees that this should be said.

EXPOSED THE FOOD.
In.p ector KeeIey Is After Meat and Fruit Men With a Pretty
 Sharp Stick.

Food and Milk Inspector Keeley is on the track of meatmen and fruit dealers who keep their produce out side their doors and leave it exposed to the dirt and dust of the streets. The practice of keeping foodstuffs out side. the doors is being criticised in other cities and Meriden is one of the places that intends to abolish this practice. Waterbury is in line also, judging from the remarks of the food inspector when asked by a reporter this afternoon if he intended to do anything in that line in this city. part of my time,' was the reply, ''and already have investigated about twenty-five markets and found some of them in very wretched condition. Before 1 am through I intend to have these markets in such a condition that the public will not be exposed to disease by making purchases there Meatmen will not be allowed to hang their wares on hooks outside their places of business and all that is to he sold must be in place that is cn- tirely free from dust and dirt. I shall make special effort in regard to this matter as think it needs much at- tention." As it is with meat SO it will he. in all probability. with all other kinds of eatables that are affected by the dust from the streets.
 Some are in favor of compelling fruit dealers to keep their stun inside the store as they put up the argu- ment that many germs find their way to fruit that is exposed all day long Some fruit is in stock for a rather long period and after several days ex- posture. those who claim tO know. state that the fruit although it ap- pears all right when one is eating it, is in reality covered with disease germs which cause much of the sick ness throughout the city.
 At any rate Mr Keeley is studying the matter very carefully and some in- teresting things are likely to result from his investigations. The board of health at the same time is framing new ordinances which will compel cattle owners to be very strict in ns- gard to the caring of cattle which is brought into the city from the out brought into the city from the OutIy- ing districts to be disposed of.

ENGINE STRUCK TREE
Fireman and Brakeman Were Hurled to Floor and Badly
 Injured.

Lakeville, Conn.,, Jan. 24-James Kelley, Il railroad fireman, and Joseph Kirk, brakeman, both of POugh- keepsie, N. Y., were badly hurt early to-day in peculiar manner while riding in q light engine on its way to Poughkeepsie. The accident happen ed near the Ore Hill station. west of here. During the night the high wind blew down an immense elm tree which had been stripped of it's branches pre- liminary to being feilesl. The tree so fell that it's trunk overlapped the Cen tral New England railroad tracks and when the engine came along to-day. it struck the tree. tearing away that portion of the cab where Kelley and Kirk were sitting. -
 Both men were knocked down to the base of the fire box and aside from being terribly bruised, were bad Iy burned. Kelley suffered broken shoulder, arm and several ribs frac- tured. His , injuries will probably prove fatal. He and Kirk were talk en to the home of Peter Flynn at Ore Hill where their injuries were attend ed to. Later they were taken to Poughkeepsie. The engine is used daily in pushing freight trains up tho grade at Norfolk and runs back to Poughkeepsie light.

Rebels Intended Rising
 at Ecuador. 4a.H..... +eteta.a iF zs1at. ATTACK BARRACKS
Was the Signal for the Revolution to Start in Many Places--Some of Soldiers in Sympathy
 With Revolutionists.

Guayaquil, Ecuador, Jan 8.-The first day of the year 1906 was chosen by the followers of General Alfaro, the former president, to raise the standard of revolution. The rebels ln- tended rising in all the republic the same day, but their plans were discov- cred and partly failed.
 The revolution began with an at tack on the Riobamba barracks by Colonel Emilio Maria Teran with sev- eral young Riobamabenos Matives Of Riobamba) One of these young men killed the sentinel with a dagger.
 Some of the soldiers of the Quito battalion, whose barracks were at tackled, were in sympathy with the rebels, and severe fight took place within the barracks between the rebels and the loyal troops. Many were killed or wounded on both sides. It has been impossible to ascertain the exact number of casualties.
 The rebels occupied Riobamba till aJnuary 4, when they were attacked by government forces from GuayaquI. under Colonel Manuel Andrade.
 Guaranda, capital of the province Of Bolivar, was next occupied by the rebels, after driving out the small gar rison guarding the city.
 As soon as the news of the rebellion reached Quito. the capital, Colonei Tomas Larrea. secretary of war and the navy, left that city with the Pichincla and Carchi battalions and some pieces of artillery. These bat talions later joined the rebels.

May Lose Present Pos
 tai Routes. WHAT DE GRAWSAYS
Assistant Postmaster General Says That the Department is About to Reduce the
 Service.

Washington. Jan. 24-ln replying to numerous inquiries Fourth Assis- tant Postmaster General de Graw has indicated the purposes of the de partment in connection with an in spection of rural free delivery routes which is in progress with a view to discontinuing or reducing the service of such of them as show little patron- age. In answering the inquiries, Mir De Graw has replied substantially as follows:
 'The inspection of the service which has been instituted is with d view to ascertaining the cause for any adverse conditions which may exist, and the possibility of removing such condi- tions. In discovering that there is a lack of patronage on a given route, consideration is given first to the pos sibility of increasing the interest in the service on the route: second, to the possibility of re-arranging the route so as to increase the patronage; third, to the possibility of establishing every other day service in lieu of the daily service; and last to it's discon- tinuance where the conditions are such that the expenditure involved in the operation of the route is unwarranted. While no fixed rule as to the amount of mail which should be handled on a rural route has been decided still the department feels that the average rural route should handle 5000 pieces of mail per month, with possible minimum of 2,000, but the question of the discontinuance of the service on routes must in all cases depend upon the conditions as they may exist on such routes, and the expenditure in- volved in operating the service on given route might not be deemed war ranted. even though the minimum uf 2,000 pieces of mail per month were handled, where it was found that a considerable number off the possible patrons were not availing themselves of the benefits of the service"

USED BOGUS CHECKS
We'll Known Hartford Youth Was Fined Heavily in Meriden
 This Morning.

Meriden, Conn.,, Jan. 24 In the no- lice court this morning Alexander Tu- lin, the IS years old son of the senior member of the firm of Tulin. Taft x Tulin. wholesale grocers of Hartford. was fined $50 and $9.40, costs, for se- curing money under false pretenses in passing bogus checks.
 The boy. who is pupil of the Hart ford High school, pleaded guilty. The fine and costs were paid by the father and they returned to Hartford this morning.
 Young Tulin came to Meriden yes- terday and passed three worthless checks which he endorsed as J. A.. Allen. on paper issued by the First National bank of this city. One for S1O, was accepted by clerk for the Lyon & Billiard company. The clerk shortly after took the check to the bank and when 1t was found to be worthless the arrest followed.
 A check for SIP and another for SS, were also cashed by Tulin, but his father made restitution on these to- day.
