Washington, May. 15. President
Roosevelt has written letter to Sen

Senator Tillman that he entered into
any compact with the South Carolinan
as to amendments TO the railway rate
bill and giving a full account Of the
conferences with ex-senator Chandler
as representative of Senator Till

The president says Sin no case,
either In the case of Mr.. Chandler or
any one else, was there the slightest
opportunity for any honest misconcep-
tion Of my attitude or any belief that l
pledged myself specifically to one and
only one amendment or set of amend
ments or that would not be satisfied
with any amendments which preserved
the essential features of the Hepburn
bill as it came from the house, He
says that as to many of the amend
ments, including the so-called Long,
Overman, Bacon and Spooner amend
ments, he had said he should be en-
tirely satisfied to have them in the bill
and suggested notifications as to other
amendments, but that as to none (of
the amendmentsJ did ever say either
to Mr.. Chandler or to any one else that
should insist upon having them in
the bill as condition Of my approval"
and, that on the contrary he (the presi-

sixty-six years and six months.
After many long years OF suffering
the death angel passed over and bore
her split to the great beyond where
there is no more pain or death, but
blessed peace with cur Savior. For
years she had suffered greatly, but she
bore her affections with great patience
Physicians and others did ali in their
power to restore her to health, but the
end came ST last, and we can only hope
that our loss Is her eternal gain.
She leaves kind and devoted hus-

What Would They Dos

So far as we have observed no Social
list or Socialist newspaper in discussing
the assassination of Frank Steunenberg,
has ever suggested what should be done
with Meyer, Haywood and Pettibone in
case they are shown to be guilty. They
have all contented themselves, and
have expected others to be content,
with their base aspersions that these
men are innocent because their friends
know they would not be implicated in
such an act.
Suppose the proofs should be such as
to convince all reasonable people that
these men perpetrated the crime charg-
ed would they turn loose these men
with their hands dripping with the
| blood of Steunenberg? Unquestionably
some of their friends are seeking to
have this done. They are seeking to
have the accused regarded as above tae
law. They are seeking to have it
established that the officers of power
full lalor organization can do no wrong.
They are seeking to establish instead of
equality before the law the grossesr
kind of inequality. Instead of principles
of justice they are attempting to estab
lish principles of injustice. They are
trying to establish privileged class
whose right 1t shall be to slay without
hindrance whomsoever they desire.
There can be no doubt that under the
guise of defense of men charged with
crime the defendants and their friends
are making an attack upon all organ
lied government, and that, In the &C.
complishment of their purpose to re.
lease the accused, they would, If pos
sible overthrow the government itselt
and wipe out of existence every law
and safeguard that have protected the
rights of the people since the fonda
OF our government.
As is always the case, we haye il
; Idaho a few persons who are catering
to the men who talk lawlessness ant
subyersion of government in the hope
that political advantage may be gnined
They will find they are mistaken. TIL,
J people of Idaho, regardless of party
regardless of social or financial con
dition, are in favor of unfolding tn,
law and furnishing crime, no matte

sternly and unremittingly. 10 effectuate

making progress; but we had no compre-
hension Of the completeness OF their sue
cess until Mr.. Mac Veagh set down the
notable results. II is fitting that he. the
hrst citizen of the state and the most
courageous and efficient OF public SER
wants. whether in official position or in
private life, should have been the one TO
make the record. There is touch OF pa
thos I'm his closing reference to the fact
that these great reforms have come too
late TO be of any service to many of the
veteran fighters in the cause OF honest
politics." but To him, the leader Of the
righteous movement weNknow that the
consummation is in very truth fun rec

helpers join with this horarsd man, in
