Roise Idaho April EX-SENATOR
porab returned from Washington last
NIGHT. In response to a request for
statement respecting his visit to
Washington at the request of the
president, he said:
81 do not wish to discuss my inter-
view with the president. | will say
tbis much, however, that at the prop
or time it will be made known, and
if will be entirely satisfactory to my
friends. might say this. however,
that the report that have requested
the holding up Of any proposed in
di,tment is ridiculously false; and
further. if any indictment is ever re-
turned | shall be ready for bushes
within 80 minutes after it is made
known. A vast amount of reports
are going the rounds Of the newspaT
ers which l have not either time or
inclination to affirm or deny. l do
not propose to give either time or
attention to these personal matters
until am through with the trials Of
the state versus Haywood ct. al to
which / expect to devote my entire
attention for the next few weeks.
One thing at a time, and that which
concerns the interests Of my clients
comes first. 4"
Continuing, Senator Borah stated
it had beel made clear to his mind,
as a result of his observations in the
east, that the president would be re
nomint ted, unless he shall actually
decline to accept the nomination. II
is the senator's belief that the nom
nation will be rendered him.

Is not only a legitimate. but an entertain

He belongs to- the ages. as Mr.. stanton SAID
or Mr. Lincoln when death had closed the

Hearst is busy now converting him into an
Independence Lacquer for use next year
Not unlikely. the name of the great Viz
ginlan Will be invoked by all parties as
soon as the presidential ball fairly opens.
Nor is this true of Mr.. jefferson alone.

his disadvantage with the retiring chief. 1t
Is highly probable that in those circum-

ticularly of the John Temple Graves va
rlety. will laud Mr.. Roosevelt to the skies
one of the safest and most patriotic of
Presidents. and warn the country against
eleCting as his successor a republican of

Whether the use thus made for partisan
purposes of departed statesmen and leaders
Capitalizes we'll at the polls is a question.
But 1t always has been done. and probably

Charging Parker Up to Bryan.

Somebody else ought to have a chance
The democratic party ought to have

Mr.. Bryan as a man. but candidate
and as the leader of his party he has proved
in three national campaigns to be failure
We wish he could be persuaded to declare
his purpose not to aftiict the party once
more with his candidacy. Surely the party
has sacrificed enough in his behalf to JUS

sonal ambition and individual opinion for
the sake of the party.

Judge Parker than Mr.. Bryan. 1t was plain

polls. After the nomination was made he
was bound to support It, but it was not In
his power for a moment to talk the ticket
TO victory.
