The Mining News editor has been fav-
ored with an annual pass on the boats
of the Milner-Rosston Navigation Co.,
on Snake river, and the invitation says
their aggregation of water craft can be
hired for weddings, funerals, elope-
ments, dog fights, and any function that
does not conflict with the interstate
commerce or Sunday rest laws. The
advertising department of that COM
pany appears to have learned early that
it requires something very much out of
the ordinary to attract the men of the
press.

Pass for Cause,

The sentence, pass for cause" has
appeared quite frequently in the daily
papers during the examination of jurors
for the Haywood case, now being tried
in Boise, yet there are many people
who do not understand the meaning of
the term used. The following explana-
ton is given by a lawyer-editor familiar
with the Idaho code,
I'm the examination of jurors the law
states some of the causes for which a
man is incompetent to sit on case and
may be excused without challenge,
while on the other hand if the questions
are answered in the negative he is
passed for cause, which means that he
is competent to sit as a juror on the
case. The following are few of the
questions that are presented to the in
tended juror:
"Consanguinity or affinity within the
fourth degree to any party. Standing
in the relation of debtor or creditor,
guardian and ward, master and servant,
employer and clerk, or principal and
agent to either party, or being mem
Der of the family of either party, or a

obligation for either party. Having an

information of it's material facts or
some of them. The existence of state

Spokane Likes Primary Elections.

The recent city election in Spokane
afforded an excellent test of the pri-
mary election law passed by the Wash
ington legislature, and the pew system
has been approved by vast majority
of the newspapers and public men, the
Opinions" of the enemies of the direct
primary to the contrary. The Spokane
election was very tropical affair, in
which all the games known in politics
were played The Chronicle and the
Review, opponents of opposite political
belief, agree that the new primary is
great improvement over the old caucus
method, and, in view of the fact that
the direct primary was one of the chest
nuts in the last campaign in Idaho, to
which string was attached, the friends
of the primary here will derive no small
amount of comfort from this from the
Spokane Chronicle:
''What has been the effect of the di-
rect primary, as demonstrated by the
election just held in Spokane?
''There may be divergent opinions on
that subject. There may be those who
will say that the law defeated the wish
of the people in the nominations.
There may be those who will declare
that the election as well as the nominal
lions would have resulted in the same
way under the old system; but that is
not the universal opinion by any means.
1T appears as if the direct primaries
mean the death of the political ring.
The reform party nominated two strong
men for the Office of mayor. One had
been a county officer and some may
have supposed he was connected with
courthouse ring. The other man had
not been in the game and had no known
political affiliations.
THE man without political backing
won. There were not enough demo-
cratic votes cast in the primaries to
nominate him. He was selected by the
voters of his own party, so it was the
peoples will. The politicians were OPP
posed to him and they certainly knew
how to organize for campaign.
Then came the election. Opposed
to the peoples choice was what has
been considered one of the most thor
oughly organized machines the city has
ever known. The machinexwas beaten
= terribly beaten. The people evidently
voted for their choice in the primaries.
