DUMMY DIRECTORS.

II seems inconceivable that men of
standing In community would lend
their influence. their prestige and
their very selves for the purpose of
furthering an effort to profit a few
men at the expense of the commun-
ity. We are told that, without hope
of reward either financial or social,
a number of the directors of the
Canyon County Fair Association have
done so. We are told that Messrs.
Stone. McLane. Stovel and brennan
each own one share of stock in the
Canyon County fair. Messrs. Fro
man, Mosby. Cowden. Hannah. Cow
en-, Sebree and Smith complete the
directory. The latter men are all
vitality interested in the fair. Messrs.
Gowen, Sebree, Cowden, Hannah and
Smith have been directors for years,
They each own large amount of
stock. Messrs. Froman and Mosby
recently became large stockholders
They are vitality interested in the
fair. 1t is said that Messrs. Stone
and McLane are attorneys for some
of the stockholders and are conse-
quently on the Board to represent the
interests of their clients. We are
told that Mr.. Stovel will do the alb
stracting when the fair grounds are
sold, consequently he is on the board
We are also told that Mr.. brennan
had the wool pulled over his eyes.
AS to the foregoing rumors The Trib-
une knows nothing. We think that
none of the directors are selfishly
interested. We hope they are not.
We hope that they are on the Board
of Directors for the purpose of fur
thering the interests of the commun-
ity. which means the carrying on of
the fair. In fact We know that these
gentlemen are not lending their
names and their interests to contemp-
tible ends. The people of Caldwell
would hold In contempt men who
would prostitute a trust of this ma
ture for selfish ends. They would

too strongly impressed with Idaho's
| fancied Interests The Tribune ad-
| dresses to them a few words. Gov
| ernor Gooding has addressed an able
and courageous message to the Leg
| islature. This message deals with
| present conditions and makes, In
| many respects, suitable and appro-
pirate recommendations Indeed in
all but two respects his recommends
| lions meet our entire appreciation,
and in these two we know that the
Governor has acted to the best of his
Judgment in the interests of the peo-
pie. Our objections are to the re-
enactment of the test oath and TO
the creation OF railroad commits
sion. 1t must be borne in mind that
the present laws, according to Sena-
tors Hepburn and Borah, the two
ablest lawyers in the State of Idaho,
are entirely adequate to deal with
that fictitious issue, commonly called
the Mormon question. If polygamy
be rampant, there are the laws, the
courts and the penitentiary. If 1t
be not, what possible good can the
enactment of the test oath do? The
idea that We should. for policy's
sake, yield a point to the ultra-moral
Democrats, is too contemplate and
foolish for serious consideration. Ii
the Republican party in Idaho be-
lieves that the Mormon church Is I'M
American, that 1t Is reasonable in
design or contamination, that its
practice or teachings are reprehen-
sible, let 1t be brave enough to dis
franchise the members of the organ-
lzation without recourse to such
circumlcutory measure as the test
oath. Let 1t say to the Mormon
Church you defy the laws of your
country, you are exotics to Its insti-
buttons, you are traitors to Its spirit,
and you cannot participate in its
privileges. You are criminals before
God and man and we shall treat you
as such. There can be no middle
ground in this matter. Republicans
must acknowledge or deny the exist
ence of a Mormon question. The
Tribune reiterates its belief that
there Is no Mormon question.
Let us briefly review the railroad
on mi Ia n 10 nhnn
sible that railroad commission is
not necessarily unfriendly to rail-
roads. But the animus behind the
present effort Is one that Is unfriend-
ly to these roads. The people of
Idaho are annually spending thou
sands of dollars for the purpose of
interesting foreign capital in devel-
oping the resources of Idaho. Not
long ago the people of Caldwell gave
their individual notes in q sum ag-
gregating 100000 for the pur-
pose of securing railroad. Probab-
ly they would do the same thing to-
morrow. Yet the creation of a rail-
road commission would do more to
keep railroads out of the State than
the people could do toward securing
them with times $40,O00.00 and
40 years to do 1t in. Capital does
not wish to intrude upon people
in developing their country, when
that peoples every effort shows that
they are unfriendly, and do not de-
sire assistance. 1t would be equally
unwise in the Legislature to re-enact
the test oath or create railroad
commission. The commission would
undoubtedly afford a number of de-
serving politicians soft berths, but 1t
would afford the people very little
relief.

Columbus, Ohio, April If new
rules put into effect in the Ohio SUI
preme court today accomplish the re-
suits for which they are intended there
will in future be fewer claw delays"
in the criminal practice before that tri-
bunal. The new rules provide that
when motion for leave to file a GRIM
inal case is filed in the supreme court,
the petition in error must be presented
with it and left in the clerks care. II
the motion is granted, the clerk will
file the petition instanter. It is fur
Their provided that within sixty days
from the filing of the case the plaintiff
in error must file his printed brief, and
within ninety days the defendants
brief must be filed. Under these rules
it will not be more than one hundred
days after criminal case is first called
to the attention of the court before it
is ready for argument. Under the old
rules attorneys were able to delay
cases of this kind for nearly a year.
