Should Regulate Speed.

The Occur dA1ene Gda) Press urges the council
of its city to regulate the speed of trains running
over crossings and of automobiles and other vehi-
cles on the streets and around street corners The
advice the Press gives is timely and should be urged
not only in Occur d'Alene but in every other city
where rigid ordinances on the subject are not now
in force The Press says:
If there is one ordinance needed in this city more
than any other at this time it is one to protect the
lives and property of individuals against the rapid
and reckless running of trains street crossings
and of automobiles the streets and around street
corners Of late several persons have had narrow
reckless driving of these conveyances. Most cities
have laws regulating the speed of such vehicles but
in Occur d'Alene it is limited only by the power OF
the machine The electric line is especially at tault
in This respect and some day it will make most
expensive killing but that does not compensate Tor
the loss of life or limb The city council owes 1t to
our citizens to take this matter up at once.

Proper Use of Parties.

Discussing the proper and control of political
parties the Dallas (Tex) News makes the following
wise comment:
Parties are indeed essential for the government
of republics and being essential it is necessary that
somewhat of individual opinion should be sacrificed
But that zeal which enables a to be for his
party, right wrong and to regard its nominees
politically sanctifed, whatever their private in
iquities not only corrupts the party but debases
citizenship.
Happily party spirit is weakening in this country
A name is not so much fetch as it used to be-
There is growing number of who feel that
instead of being exalted by membership in party
the party is exalted by numbering them among its
members They are no longer concerned with pleas
ing the party but expect rather that the party should
please them 1t has taken than a century
to rise to this low level of civic virtue for we
had to learn in the slow and painful way of ex-
perence The need of parties appreciated from
the beginning, the proper use and control of them
we are only now beginning to learn.

More Evidences of Prosperity.

Seattle Wash) Times: -Four hundred sawmlIs,
operating in the Spokane country will cut this year.
according to advices to hand, from 1850 million to
1900 million feet of lumber having commercial
value of seventeen million dollars and is estimated
that from 40 to As per cent of the manufactured
product will be marketed in local territory. The
lumber is chiefly white, western and red pines and
larch with sprnkling of other woods. These mills
and camps give employment to no less than $4,000
men at wages averaging $3.50 day.
Nevada State Journal: "Beef cattle valued at
about 100000 were shipped from Elko this week"
saws the Elko Free Press. That is what makes Ne

to which the pick and shovel are the only keys, lie
millions of stored wealth. awaiting only the coming
of the prospector and the miner to yield themselves

I'm Idaho Trust Buster.

The Parma Ida) Herald has donned its war paint
and is the trail of trusts in general and the
South Idaho lumber trust in particular Here is
the way it goes after the object of its wrath in
recent issue:
In the last two or three years the lumber trust
has done more damage to Southern Idaho than all
other causes combined It has stopped the building
of hundreds of homes. 1t has caused hundreds more
of houses to be built in an inferior manner. The
members of this trust are known as Our foremost
citizens yet they engaged in robbery, pure and
simple. In order to necessary shelter for his
employment to honest laborers, the wealthy man
must curta the improvement of his property. 1t
hits all, rich and poor alike, and Congress has not
yet started its investigation. We have never been
friend of government ownership, but have arrived
at the point where will be the friend of anybody
that will swat this South Idaho lumber trust in the
solar plexus.

Civic DefaUIferS.

Speaking of the recent election in Philadelphia,
the Record of that city, says:
Forty thousand Philadephians took the pains to
have themselves registered who did not take the
pains to go to the polls and vote. These civic de-
faulters They are like men who provdently insure
their lives and improvidenty fail to pay the pre-
miums necessary keep their insurance good These
stay-at-home voters are the bane of politics.
AS rule they hold lightly their partisan loyalty.
If they went to the polls they would vote indie
pendent free lances-the very element most needed
Idaho also, has too many of these stay at-home
voters and the Records comment hits the situation
here exactly We have some big questions to be
settled and the Independent voter can settle them
if he will only awaken to the fact that his right Of
suffrage is one that must be exercised if he would
do his full duty as a citizen.

No More Pyran1idin6.

Wall Street New York; Journal: One thing
has been pretty clearly established by the develop
ments in New York banking. Hereafter the Clear
ing House will not permit the ownership of banks
on borrowed money. In other words, the process
of pyramidng banks must come to an end "A capt.
talist is not to be permitted to buy bank and
then hypothecate the banks stock for loans with
which to purchase another bank, the securities OF
which are put up for loans with which to purchase
another institution and ad infnitnm 1t this
thing is DONE the banks must not expect to enjoy
the privileges and protection of the Clearing House
Chains of financial institutions are one thing, but
the creation of such chains by the process noted IS
quite another.

Sensible Tom Johnson.

Providence Or ~ Journal: Mayor Tom johnson
wants it distinctly understood that he will not be
a candidate for the Presidential NOMINATION. lie
feels that the reclamation of the city of Cleveland
from the grip of the corporations will provide all
the work he can reasonably attend to for some time
to come The Nation at large meanwhile Will have
to get along as we'll as it can with Roosevelt, Bryan
or somebody else handling the blackjack and fumi-
CATION plant
It's an encouraging sign for the Nation that men
of the calibre of Tom Johnson should consider the
work at hand of first Importance. Everybody can't
be President and it is certainly better that the less
important offices be elevated by the men who hold
them than for the offices to elevate the men.

The Grangeville Qda) Free Press, in urging the
planting of trees is doing work for its city that
should be done by the newspapers of every town in
Idaho where similar conditions exist The Free
Press says:
There is nothing SO needful to the beauty OF a
city as shade and that is thing this town. is
sadly lacking in We have here an ideal location
for city and there is every indication that some
dav Grangeville will be much more pretentous than
it is today Now is the time to lay the foundation
for the coming city, and the planting of trees should
be encouraged by all A great many people have
purchased trees this fall and doing their part
to improve the looks of the city Wide, shady
avenues are the envy of the less fortunate places
where the hot sun beats down on one as though
in the midst of the Sahara.

Intellectual Integrity Needed.

Christian Advocate (New York;: A contributor
to of the daily papers makes much of moral
fidelity as the essence and substance of character
There is no true character without moral fidelity
but far practical results are concerned there
is another element equally important, namely, in
tellectual integrity. The who cannot hold his
IDEAS notions, opinions beliefs and convictions,
steadily applying his judgment to every act in life,
may have moral fidelity but may make so many
mistakes to be really without helpful influence.

seven of them weighed 129 pounds and one grabbed

The Caldwell (Ida) News, which recently sus-

tribute to the prompt and effective work done by the
