Fitzpatrick and Fred Daly. both star men and candidates respectively for the position. of quarter and half-back Fitzpatrick injured his knees jumping in the summer and Dalys knees arc also in poor shape.

O'BRIEN PLAYS
 LIQUOR DEALERS
(contlnued from First Page.


 This kind of anachy is not confined to Atlantic City. It Is peculiar to the liquor business In every city in the United States. Regulation does not regulate. The men engaged in the liquor business have no respect for any law unless 1t be through fear. They corrupt the electorate In every election. They do not hesitate to de- clare their power to do so. They make some politicians fear them and they intend to be the masters but there Is moral wave sweeping over thls country that will sweep them out of business.
 The claim that they help pay taxes Is not true but if 1t were true It would bc an insult to American manhood. If every dollar received In Branford from the liquor license were profit 1t would amount to about one dollar per capita and when the liquor dealers tell you citizens of Branford that they are help Ing to pay your taxes they are simply asking you to sell out to them at a dollar head
 If that Is your price continue to Vote for the saloon. That Is the price that the liquor men are willing to pay and arc paying today The town how ever must pay out in care of poor and criminal costs and It's share of the county tax to support the jails and the county homes more money than you receive so that in reality you are pay ing for the privilege of having saloons In your town.
 The personal liberty argument should deceive no one. The liquor deal. CT is strangely silent when the fiber. ties of others are endangered. He only appears as champion of personal liberty when his business is In danger Al all other times he is silent. His Ii. cense is special privilege. It Is foi special privilege for himself that he Ia fighting and not for the personal lib. erty of others. He wants special priv ilege to deal out destruction, death and damnation 10 his fellow citizens, From tho time that primitive man thought Il was an interference to compel him tc don the breech cloth to the present time In each stage of progress some one has cried that his personal liberty was being interfered with until toda, the only man who dares stand before the American people and say that hi desire to make money is entitled tt more consideration than the genera welfare is the saloonkeeper"
 Mir. o'Brien during the course of hi remarks illustrated his points witl some catchy stories. In speaking of th revenue from the liquor traffic he sai' it reminded him of a story of censu taker who called on colored woman whose husband was helping to pay tn taxes of some plous front pew churcl member and asked the occupation O the husband. On being told he had n occupation she was asked what Is h doing now The woman replied tha Just at present he was predicting wha would happen after election.
 Then will put him down as
 prophet" said the census taker.
 The woman replied, Don't you pu dat niger down as no profit. He ar no profit whatever to de house. He ar dead loss" and Mir. o'Brien said was SO with the liquor traffic.

New York, Sept. 1s.-Albert F. Hen schel. president of the conference of citizens which has been studying into the causes underlying the failure of the port of New York to maintain the same ratio of progression relative to other Atlantic ports, that characteriz- ed It's commerce ten years ago, an- nounced today that a demand would be made upon both the republican and democratic state conventions for the embodiment in their respective plat forms of an article declaring for a change of policy as regards waterways transportation through the state and for better harbor facilities and regula- tions at New York.

 Mir. Munro In the morning service spoke on the subject, Some Soldierly Essentials" and said in part:
 The first work of good soldier Is strict adherence to the claims of duty. Indeed "obedience' is .essen- tially a military term-is indispensa- ble and fundamental to true soldierly ability and Is abundantly and splen- didly Illustrated in history of every period among civilized nations.
 When in 1853 the murderous bat teres around Sebastopol were belch- ing then tremendous missiles at the English position an infamous order was conveyed from jealous superior officer to the dashing young com mander of the famous Light Bri- gade," Earl Cardigan. The order which had as its motive Cardigan's destruction was to the effect that the 600 charge the Russian guns.

REPUBLICANS TAKE NOTE.

1t is no longer a question but that
the Republicans of Canyon County
will adopt strong prohibition plank
in its next platform. We note the
Caldwell News, the leading Demo-
cratic paper of the County, Is urging
its party to take similar action. The
Tribune congratulates The News up
on getting right politically. If the
Democrats will molly follow out good
Republican suggestions, they will not
be far wrong. Since the Republicans
were going to adopt straight out pro-
hibition, We were in hopes that the
Democrats would adopt local option.
We had these hopes for two reasons,
viz: first, that the people might
have an opportunity to decide once
for all, which line of action they pre-
ferred; second, because We were sure
they would adopt prohibition and as
sure Republican success. The Re-
publican party, naturally, would be
the one to adopt prohibition. 1t is
along the line they would naturally
go. The Republican party since 1855
as taken advanced grounds upon
every public question before the peo-
Pile. The Democratic party has been
dragging along several years behind.
The party will never ctch up with
the procession, but 1t Is showing COM
mendable zeal.
1t makes no difference, tho, to the
Republican party as to the action
taken by the Democrats. We should
go right ahead; adopt straight
platform and then nominate men who
will carry that platform into effect,
If elected. BY SO doing the Repub-
licans will secure victory for them
slves and once again serve humanity.

and enterprizing. If it were not for
one thing he would be a strong man
against Chairman Brady for the nom
ination, and that is that the field
seems to be open for each county.
Mr.. Brady in his announce ment re-
cognizes this fact And here The
Tribune wishes to present a cand-
date from Canyon County. He Is a
man perfectly available; without any
entangling alliances; and above all
remarkably well qualified. That man
is Judge Frank J. Smith of Caldwell
Judge Smith has been a resident Of
Idaho for seventeen or eighteen
years. He served several times as
prosecuting attorney of Canyon Coun-
ty, and was the first judge of the
Seventh Judicial District. He en-
joys in a remarkable degree the con-
fidence of the people. He is honest,
fearless and able. He rendered Idaho
verto-be-forgotten service in
the fearless, yet dignified manner in
which he handled the Western Fed
GRAFTON cases while judge of the
District Court. On more than one
occasion he has proved his worth
Without speaking disparagingly of
any other candidate, we will say that
Idaho could not elect a better man
than Judge Smith. He represents
high ideals as a man, citizen and
lawyer. His nomination by the Re-
publicans for governor would be a
splendid reputation of the contempt
ible methods pursued to encompass
his defeat as district Judge. 1t would
show that Idaho cannot be controlled
by bigoted scoundrels or buncombed
by INSCRIPTIONS charlatans. He
would make an ideal governor. Can
yon County would support him, and
Idaho should dc the same.

BRADY's ANNOUNCEMENT.

Hon. James H. Brady of Pocatello
as announced himself a candidate for
the Republican nomination for gov
ernor of Idaho, subject to the action
of the Republican State Convention.
We take it, from Mr.. Brady's an
nouncement, that he is sacrificing
himself for the good of the people.
In other words, Mr.. Brady's friends
have prevailed upon him to accep,
the nomination If rendered. This is
always the way. We have never yet
seen a candidate who really wanted
an office. We would like to see one,
and II we ever do We will support
him. We are like the man who had
never seen purple cow, but would
rather see than be one.
However, Hon. James H. Brady
is on of the prominent, substantial
and progressive men of Idaho. For
several years past he has shown him
self to be enterprizing, progressive,
and public-spirited. He Is a man of
the people and has their interests at
heart The Tribune is convinced
that there is not a man in the State
who has done more for Idaho than
James H. Brady He Is an able man
and judging from his past deeds and
future promises we think Idaho could
do far worse than nominate him.
With his executive abilities in state
craft and gubernatorial qualiflca-
lions, we are not entirely familiar.
AS a man and citizen we know that
he would be a credit to Idaho, to
his friends and to himself. He Is a
big man, and we have no doubt, but
that he would make a good governor.
We note one great thing to his credit
and that is that the Boise Statesman
is not overly enthusiastic. The en-
thusiasm of the Statesman in his
behalf would condemn him anywhere
The Tribune is pleased to commend
Mr.. Brady to the favorable consider
alton of the people Of Canyon County.

TEMPEST IN A TEA POT.

self into a terrible passion, and all
because The Tribune gave publicity
to the rumor that Salt Lake parties
had secured the controlling interest
in that paper. In our estimation an
alliance with the Deseret News of
Salt Lake would reflect credit upon
the Capital News of Boise. After
stopping to think of the various al
liances the Capital News has made in
the past, we think we did that paper
a signal service. We admit that we
were surprized at the Deseret News,
when we herd the rumor. It will be
remembered that ever since some
prominent politicians of both parties
became interested In the Capital
News, that paper has posed as the
friend Of the Mormons. Now II in
suits its Mormon friends by saying
that a rumor that connects 1t with
that organization, or even with Salt
Lake, works hardship on the paper.
That is the most unkindest cut of

such a deal would result in honor to

cannot see how harm can result to

ways made a practise of tangling up
with everything in sight. Don't the
Capital News think 1t protests too
much? Why all this fuss about a
vague uncertain rumor, that was only
published as a rumor? The Boise
paper demands knowledge of our
source of information. That is a
strenuous demand. Does the News
imagine the Tribune fool enough to
give away secrets and secret sources
of information? Does the News i'm
agine The Tribune scoundrel enough
to expose It's friends? Once again

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The political situation from Re-
publican standpoint has settled down
to about three things as far as we
can SEE. e. that Senator Hepburn
and Congressman French will be re-
elected to Congress without opposi-
ton and that the governor will come
from south Idaho. The other candi-
dates have not been determined upon
to the best knowledge of The Trib-
une. However, this may be few
moments discussion of the possible
candidates for governor may not be
amiss at his time. OF course, at the
present writing, Hon. James H.
Brady of Pocatello looms ND big and
strong. Comment on his announce
ment appears in another column of
this issue of The Tribune. Among
the other candidates are Hon. John
Haines, Hon. Joseph Penault, Judge
George H. Stewart, and Judge Frank
Wyman of Boise. We understand
that Hon. Joseph Penault, Judge
Stewart, and Judge Wyman are be-
Ing mentioned by their friends and
at present are only passive candi-
dates. Hon. John Haines, mayor of
Boise, Is receptive candidates and
will no doubt get a strong endorse
ment from Ada County. He is
strong man, popular and able. He
has developed great executive ability
as mayor of Boise and in other posi-
lions of public trust. Mr.. Haines will
prove a formidable candidate. He
is popular in several counties aside
from Ada. As a business man and
as an executive he has been success
full. AS citizen he is public-spirited
