Make Them Prove II.

Governor Gooding has begun libel
proceedings against the Boise Daily
Capital News, for alleged slanderous
articles publish during the campaign
just closed. The Boise paper said
that Governor Gooding was a CRATER,
implying thereby that he had used his
official position to benefit himself at
the expense OF the people. If the
Capital News can prove its charges, all
very well, but if it cannot no punish
ment possible under the Idaho statutes
are quite sufficient to meet the de-
mands Of justice. Public officials are
entitled to some protection from those
who, to gain few votes, resort to will
full SANDER and malicious falsehoods.
We had taste of this manner of cam
paign here in Latah county this fall.
Messrs. A. B. Towne, w. D. Smith,
the Journal gang, and a score of Others
ought yet to be compelled to prove
their base insinuations or go to Jail
If they told the truth they are neglect
ing their duty by now keeping still
and ii they lied, as they certainly did
they deserve to be punished.

Clarkston to Have More Railroads.

Charleston people are getting enthus-
iastic over the prospects for that town
and we'll they may be. The new land
under the splendid pipe line system is
being bought up in small tracts by
men abunduntly able to improve them
in proper manner. The electric rail-
road from Wallula through Walla Walla
and Dayton to Charleston seems assured
for the near future as the bonds for
building the line are reported to have
been sold. 1t is expected that the
Spokane Inland electric line will make
its headquarters for this valley in
Charleston. The Oregon Short Line
has just completed complete location
survey from Huntington to Clarkston,
where it is expected that the road
when built will unite with the 0. R. q
N. line down the river to Portland.
The Northern Pacific surveyors have
been busy in Charleston and the Snake
river below for several weeks past. The
competition of the Milwaukee and
and Hartman lines seem to be forcing
the N. P. in constructing the Missoula
cutoff from Missoula to Lewiston and
from Lewiston through Clarkston down
the south side Of Snake river. The
Open river movement is also helping to
force the railroads through this rict
territorv and will always be an import
ant regulator of freight rates. Alto
gether, the outlook for Clarkston fol
the next few years is very promising
indeed.

Free Seed Humbue.

1t costs the American people $780,
900 per year for the privilege Of per-
hitting our senators and congressman
to send out free seeds to their friends.
And it is the biggest piece Of non
sense the News could mention. Not
one in a dozen who get free seeds
ever plant them, and not one in a
hundred who gets them but is amply
able to buy all the seeds needed.
Think of the government donating a
fve-cent package Of ruta baga seed to
farmer worth possibly $40, 900!
Think of the average Potlatch farmer,
with quarter section Of land, worth
fifty per acre, being furnished free
seedl The matter is farce and moth
ing short Of an insult to the intelligence
of the people of this nation. If the
distribution of quarter OF a million
dollars annually Of free seeds is a good
thing why confne the governments S
benevolence to the farmer? Why not
ask our congressman and senators to
distribute few tons of new type OF
paper cutters among US poor country
editors? Why not give the lawyers ol
few new Libraries, or the doctors an
annual supply of pills and plasters'
Why not have our congressman In
clude sawmills and logging trucks FOL
the thousands Of voters who use these
things in their business, and who have
no more use for the latest brand o.
pumpkin seed than they have for plus
hats and linen busters? Let congress
include chewing gum, Peruna, anc
Force in its list and thus make il
possible for senators and oongressmer
to meet the diversified tastes OF al
classes. Last year our wife received
free package Of ransy seed. This yea
we would ask Congressman French t.
send bottle Of Castoria for the baby
We can use that.

From letters and other evidence
now in the possession Of the people OF
Latah county the News has positive
evidence sustaining the contention
over the qualification Of Ada B. Iowne'
the fusionist candidate for county
school superintendent. Had she been
elected she could not have qualified.
Her contention that she had been
granted pending first grade certlll,
cate'' was fully investigated and
amounted to nothing. In order TO get
first grade certificate she would have
to take regular examination and pass
certain specified branches, just as
would the News editor. Under these
conditions not only could Mrs. Iownse'
but any other person, get a first grade
certificate. But what's the user

As Others See Is.

Goodwin's Weekly, published in
Salt Lake, has this to say of Idaho:
All reports agree that Idaho is en-
Joying exceeding prosperity. Her
mines are holding their own and are
enough to vitalize all the other
branches Of business in the state. In
farming and fruit raising she is advanc-
ing by leaps and bounds; her grain is
heavier than the standard weight; her
fruit has fame as wide as the Repub-
lie. She has more superb agricultural
land than New York or Pennsylvania,
and the average of her crops per acre
exceeds those states two to one.
When, perhaps five years hence,
she will be able to utilize the water
now running to waste, she will have
more land under cultivation than all
New England has to-day.
Her people are justly exultant
over their present prosperity and over
the hopes justly cherished for hei
future.
And they are great people. The
climate they live in is perfect from 8
health standpoint, a climate which
enables them to work every day in the
year out of doors, and which to mel
is what an oxygen blast is to molter
iron-which converts it into steel, ST
that they can work long hours, so tha
their brains are always kept strong, 81
that they cannot help but be brav
race and generous hears always attacl
to brave men.
we congratulate our norther
neighbor and wish for her continuou
prosperity and all generous Christina
greetings"

Every night the detective bu- reau brings in from 40 to loo of these men who have police records. and the next morning the magistrates set most of them free because there is no way in which they may be detained under the law.
