A WISE THING.

The legislature has done wise
thing when it stops to consider the
matter OF the secretary of state 6
sction in ordering stationery for
the use Of that body from Portland
or some city outside of Idaho.
There is q plain law upon the
statute books which requires all
printing for public purposes to be
done within the county where it is
required for use, or within the
STATE. This law is constantly vio-
lated by officials who have taken
their oaths to support all the
statntes Of the states. 1t is violat-
cd in every county in Idaho and
the county officials who violate il
have their offenses condoned by the
board Of county commissioners who
promptly allow the bills.
The legislature will do well to
make . thorough investigation Of
this practice, and in order to get te
the bottom OF it perhaps it would
b well to extend it to the differen,
counties and not stop at the secre.

push, energy and action we should
have here city of considerable

years. There is a railroad coming
and a lot of other good things in

and work as unit. Concentrated
action will bring results. Sup
ported heartily, the Get Together

$500 NOT TOO MUCH.

The people Of the United States
will not complain because the meme
bers of the United States Senate
have voted an increase in their
pay to $500 per year. The
large duties that rest upon men
who have capacity to be senator's
for q nation as progressive and
prosperous as ours is sufficient
justification for the increase in pay.
There is, however, one thing about
which the American people are
going to be more particular in the
future than they have ever been
heretofore, and that is to see that
the service for which they are
paid is actually rendered. The
American people have not only
the best but the exclusive right
to the entire service of every mar
elected to either branch of congress
and they are unwilling that part
Of this service and probably ths
best part shall be given to corpora
tions in which its legislative repre-.
sentatives are indirectly if moi
directly interested. There are in
the United States senate today mer
who have the effrontery to pose a,
the peoples representatives wheI
as matter of fact they are traitors
to the peoples best interests. i
has heretofore been the custom fol
these men to attempt to excus,
themselves when charged will

ANENr r. r. COMMISSION.

The stand the Get Together and
Commercial Clubs have taken in
opposing the proposed state rail-
road commission, is worthy Of great
praise and may well be followed
by other similar bodies who have
the welfare and best interests Of
their immediate comm unities, as
we'll as the state of Idaho, at
heart.
According to statistics Idaho has
very limited railroad mileage at
present, and to pals bill creating
a railroad commission to regulate
these few miles, seems to be the
grossest kind Of foolishness.
Within the boundaries OF the
state are some OF the richest min
eral deposits in the union and the
finest agricultural country in the
world, and these with the Lumber
ing Industries and other great re-
sources are awaiting the coming Of
the railroad for their development.
We want to encourage, not dis
courage, that which is to give ns
easy access to the markets and the
outside world. Let us look to the
older states that have created COM
missions and note the results.
Many Of these are owned body and
soul by the railroads and fail ut
terly to accomplish the object they
were intended for. A commission
that represents the people is desir-
able perhaps, in state that boasts
Of q great railroad mileage, but to
suggest q commission in q state
with the sparse mileage oi Idaho,
is not in the line Of progression.
