His ailence has been painful. Boise

President Roosevelt thinks about Sena-

refers to undesirable citizens"
Nothing ever said by the president

STILL ON DECK.

A friend OF ours from the county seat
told US recently that some Of the
political manipulators Of the republican
party had said that the News editor was
no longer good republican. Honorsl
We have said things without first get
ting permission from handful of fell
lows who imagine they are the whole
republican party, and without caring
whoop what effect our course would
have on the political fortunes Of the
Office seekers and the Office holder.
These things do not. and never have,
worried US. Rather have we sought
after those principles and issues OF
vital importance 10 the people, and
preferred to stand for public interest
in preference to the personal desires OF
men whose only care is perpetuation
in public office. But it remains to be
seen whether or not the republican
party OF Latah county will stand with or
repudiate the News. II the News is
kicked bodily out into the cold world
It means that Latah county will re-
pudiate the brave, honorable, manly,
decent, respectable stand made by our
representatives. in the last session OF
the Legislature. If the republican
party Of Latah county endorses their
action then it will approve our course,
for we have offended in nothing
except to call attention to the disgrace
full conduct Of the last republican leg
islature. The News has simply insisted
on standing on the last republican
state and county platforms and if it is a
crime then we are guilty. And prov
ing us guilty would be compliment
Of which we would well be justly
proud.

order to live, to seek the friendship of
those who are not so platonic in their

with sentiment that binds mutual adj

are too many men who expect an editor
to slave in defense Of their pet notions

American people are desperately in
