How the Mountains Were Formed.

How the Mountains Were Formed.
In recent years theories Of moan
tain formation have changed like ev-
erything else scientific. The ancient
belief that the mountains were the
muscles" or the backbone" OF the
continents never was scientific at
any time. In stead OF being an extra
layer of rock that binds the eonti-
nents together. they are the ragged
edges OF the cracks In the masonry.
or folds In the crust or extruslons
OF internal matter through the
cracks. They are points OF the
-crusts weakness rather than its
strength. The new theories hark
back to the original formation OF
the earth. The conception OF a hot
drOp OF a world swinging In space,
gradually cooling and forming
shell as smooth as a billiard ball. has
been partly abandoned. The nebular
hypothesis has been modified, the
so-called metoric hypothesis has
been found inadequate; and the
more plausible theory OF Professor
Chamberlain has been put forth.
This latest theory argues the
formation of the world by gradual
accretions from planetary bodies. Il

That Congressman French looks upon his polyga-

feeling that way If Mr. Eschler is at all grateful,

Democrats Financed Republicans.

There is not a strong inclination in Republican
New York Democratic circles to talk about the de-
velopments that have out of investigation In
to the affairs of the Metropolitan Securities company
of New York By the records of that concern, it
was found that it contributed half million doll
ars to the campaign fund of the Republican party in
1900 the contribution having been made through such
distinguished Democrats as Thomas F. Ryan, William
C. Whitney and others in the political class
The 100000 contributed the gift of coterie
of Cleveland Democrats and their purpose the
defeat of the Democratic Presidential candidate,
William J. Bryan A campaign fund becomes
ruption fund when it is fched from the strong box
of corporation by number of Democrats and given
to number of Republicans to be used for the
throw of the candidate of the Democrats who appro
priated the money 1t is tainted money.
1t is commonly believed and has not been denied,
that Mr.. Ryan is prominent member of the com
bnation that is behind the in behalf of the
nomination of Governor Johnson by the Democratic
Convention at Denver, movement that can be ac-
credited to the New York promoters of what is
known as the Cleveland faction.
In 1904 the same element financed the Parker
paign and the Republicans were that year compelled
to go to the insurance companies domicled in New
York when the time came to fill their barrel.
The political historian in recording the events of
the recent past will relate that in 1896 the Cleveland
Democrats bolted the party nomination and put up
ticket of their own. In 1900 they financed the
pagn of the Republican candidate for the Presidency
In 1904 they had nominee of their choice
and contributed their wealth to his without
appreciate effect
They are now endeavoring to control convention
in their own interest and after they have failed they
will undoubtedly assume some sort of reasonable
guise for they are without honor.

Not Doing Anything.

While passing through Chicago on his way to the
old Shiloh battlefield Governor Johnson disclaimed
any purpose of making campaign in behalf of his
own nomination for the Presidency by the Demo
cratic Convention at Denver.
1t is to be feared that the Governor is misrepre-
sentng himself Four days before he passed through
Chicago on his way to Shiloh there were sent from
his headquarters in that city few hundred thousand
letters to Democrats of the middle west in which
the recipients were assured that the nomination of
Bryan meant the defeat of the Democratic ticket in
November The letters also stated that the party
was approaching IAN autocratic convention where
popular choice is to be subordinated to personal
will'
The Idaho scimitar. [volume] (Boise, Idaho) 1907-1908, 1908-04-18

The Democratic committee of Minnesota lent its
printed stationery to this campaign scheme and it
therefore appears to have been waged in behalf of the
dsclaiming Mr.. Johnson. So Mr.. Johnson is not
even honest in his attack on Mr. Bryan. The public
will understand that whatever is done by the only
committee in the United States that has assumed the
burden of his candidacy is as much part of his
campaign as though his own letterheads were used.
The sending of these letters to Democrats of the
middle west is scandalous waste of postage stamp
money for middle west Democrats are impervious to
the advances of the class of politicians hatare behind
the Johnson movement and are as enthusiastically
loyal to the twice defeated Nebraskan they ever
were.
The promise went along with the New York World
announcement of his candidacy that Minnesota and
the group of state surrounding it would rally around
Mr. Johnson But the surrounding states have held
their conventions and they have refused the bait
placed on the gilded hook of the Parker faction of
the Democratic party
The last of these convention held in South
Dakota last week and its instruction to its delegates
was to vote for Bryan first last and all the time and
to vote for no one else. North Dakota Demo
Gratis were equally emphatic and the two Dakotas
were on the cock-sure list of the New York World
agitators.
In the South Dakota convention a motion to make
Governor johnson the second choice of the delega-
ton was cast out without consideration and rather
mpatently.
Mr. Johnson has bare majority of the members
of the Democratic committee of his state, but
it is not at all certain that his state will go for
him in the National Convention The middle west
is not in sympathy with the eastern movement in
behalf of Mr. Johnson and the letters that have been
scattered that section by the Johnson committee
will fall upon barren soil.

Homeless Children.

The arrival in Boise of Rev. O. P Christian, of
Eau Claire Wisconsin, promises to extend the work
of the National Children's Home Association to
Idaho, with Boise as the headquarters Mr. Christian
is also identified with the Wisconsin Ch1drens Home
Society, being district superintendent. He will lay
the foundations of state establishment and it is

This is of the public charities that ought to

where it is well organized in placing homeless chill

Such institution relieves the authorities Of the
various counties of of the serious problems
of local government in caring for he destitute and
abandoned children. Contributions to the support
of the homes usually voluntary, but they are so
well supported in states where the system is in oper-
alton as to assure the public of their value.

the influences that shaped their course, he ought to
have said which newspaper. Then all the others

THE NEW POLITICAL SCHOOL

The announcement by Governor Hughes that he wall accept the renom- inatiou which his party is willing and anxious to tender him, is of less impor- tance as local political incident than it is as sn evidence of the practical sue cess Of high ideals and moral courage in politics. The situation is decidedly encouraging to all who feared that the power oi political machines could not be broken and that deception, traffic in office and compromise with evil must al ways prevail. Theodore Roosevelt founded d new school of politics, but there was a general feeling that none but Roosevelt could succeed iu il. Without being a narrow imitator of the great popular leader, Mir. Hughes has followed similar lines, always, however, showing au individuality Of his own, and has won. He came into power against the wishes of the political boss es, be fought them throughout his ad mInistrstion and they have been power less to defeat him for renomination, They have had the good sense not to try, says the Oregonian.
 The story of the success of Roosevelt aud of Hughes is inspiring to the young man contemplating useful career in public life. It promises nothing, how ever, for the selt-seeking man who is willing to play the demagogue in order to gain popular favor of who has no ability Commensurate with his ambl- ton. Neither Roosevelt nor Hughes is selfish, though Roosevelt has been fre-

quontly accused of desire for personal aggraudizement. Those who have felt their special privileges suffering be- cause of Rooseyelt's activity against iu-
 justice have called him demagogue, aud have strIveu to create popular pre- judlce against him. h tbis they have utterly failed, for hls every utterance, when viewed in the light of the cIrcum- stances which prompted It, has been found to be the expression Of a sincere desire to do right and suppress wrong. Had Roosevelt been seIi,seeker his great activity would have made him to- day the most cordially hated man in public life.
 Because they have been willing to serve and have had the ability to serve effectively, both Roosevelt and Hughes have been made leaders. It was not power nor glory that Roosevelt sought but the opportunity to render to his country the best service he could give, Hughes never sought position, but re- sponded to the call when 1t came. Both of them "made good, " not only by faith ful performance of duties assigned them but also by going outside the beaten paths whenever they saw work that needed to be done. They feared not the anger of the wealthy nor needed the un- just criticism of the poor. They per- formed faithfully the present task, leav- ing the question of public approval to take care of itself.
 Let DO man think that because Roose- welt and Hughes succeeded in the new school of politics he can spring into the political arena, swing his arms dehant- ly, shout condemnation Of wealth and thereby vanqulsh all opposition to his ambition. The entrance requirements to the new school of politics are severe. The asplrant must be possessed Of 8 high moral character, He must have served long enough in Q preparatory school of useful service to demonstrate his fitness for larger tasks. He must have judgment, a knowledge of men, an understanding of affairs, an unAinch- ing courage, a capacity for work, an in. tuitige sense of justice, and, last but not least, humility. Neither in the uew nor in any other school Of politics is there place for the arrogant, Van- lty will lead unerringly to fatal fall ln the new political school.

SEAGTGY AT THE FAIR. WORK FOR THE
 CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 10 DO

Alaska was represented at the St. Louis exposition by multitude of to- tenn poles, malamute dogs and bidarkas. It had a prominent place set apart for 1t among the savage people of earth. IL was a very picturesque exhibition but it was distinctly harmful to Alaska rather than beneficial. Itwas tho fault of Alaska herself that this was so.
 Now there is a great exhibition being built up down at Seattle for the direcc object of setting Alaska properly before the world. The Cuited States govern ment is lending its aid to this end with an appropriation of s6OO,OOO. There are so be arrsyed there such attractions as will certainly bring together a vast number of people to see what may be there on display from this country. The people of Alaska now here will be the principal benefciaries of this dis play and the benefit will be in exact proportion to the appearance they put up at the show, the impression they make upon the crowds that go to see. IL should be a matter of patriotism with us to make a creditable showing-ii certainly is a matter of business. sksg, way, as the port of entry, so to speak, of the great empire, the point of his torical interest attaching to the new Alaska, has much 10 show that would add to the interest of the exhibition and of all places in Alaska to receive direct, immediate results, Sksgway stands first in line.
 Here then is a most attractive field fol the labors of the reorgauized chamber of commerce-iL is 8 thing to which il may well turn it's immediate attention, a worthy object for the first exercise o' It's renewed energies.
