IDAHO FOR TAFT.

The Twin Falls Times Is inclined
to take issue with State Chairman
Brady in the matter Of Idaho being
for Taft. The Times says that Twin
Falls county, regardless Of pOliti-
clans and their views, Is in favor of
Roosevelt for third term"
1t will be remembered that Mr..
Brady, in the interview mentioned
by the Times, gave 1t as his opinion
that Idaho is for Roosevelt and
Roosevelt policies, but that it having
come to be realized that Mr.. Roose-
welt would not accept a re-nomina-
ton, Idaho will support the man who

Republicans should always remem-
Der that the principle of protection is
one Of the cardinal doctrines Of the
party. There is no sense in letting a
present opportunity for advancement
override the principle that has made
the party perpetual.

Colonel Bryan is alive to the fact
that he has opposition in the east

to get out and hustle for some more

close friend Of Gov. Hughes, and as
the governor is believed to desire the
secretary's presence at the conven-
ton, the report that he was to be
there was readily believed. Straight
from the White House, however, has
come the assurance that neither the
secretary Of state nor the secretary
OF the treasury. nor any other men,
Der of the cabinet. will be at the con-
vention.
1t is to be hoped that the absence
of cabinet officers from the conven-
ton also means that federal officials
of all grades will be scarce at that
gathering. 1t is to be hoped likewise
that the government placemen who go
to Chicago as spectators during the
convention will avoid all attempts to
use their official influence toward
the advancement of the fortunes of
any aspirant. The scandal which was
created by the presence of federal
officials at the Minneapolis conven-
ton In 1892 is remembered by good
many republicans. "Mr. Chairman,
I hold In my hand list of 130-odd
officeholders who are delegated to
this convention, nine-tenths Of whom
live in states where there is a hope
less democratic majority. The
trouble comes not alone from these
men, but it comes from pressure of
between 1000 and 5000 government
officeholders, who swarm the corri-
doris of the hotels, and fill these gal
leries, and haunt the delegates, who
ought to be in Washington and else
where attending to their business.
We who are from republican states
would like to have a little voice in
naming a candidate for the presi-
dency." These were the words of Mr..
Wolcott of Colorado. one of the
Blaine delegates at Minneapolis.
We all remember that the activity
of the federal officials at that con-
vention was one of the causes OF the
defeat of the conventions candidate.
Gen. Harrison was a good president,
but he made the mistake which was
made by some Of his republican and
democratic predecessors In attempt
ing to run his party's caucuses, pri-
maries and conventions In addition to
doing the work which he was elected
to perform. Distrusting the senti-
ment Of his party, he allowed the
convention of 1892 to be packed by
his placemen, so as to render his re-
nomination certain. In doing this
he made the supreme mistake of fall
ing to look beyond the convention to
the election. He assumed, as many
unwise republicans are assuming to-
day, that the people will be sure tot
ratify the selection of the convention,
regardless altogether of who that Sc
lection may be. AS a consequence
his democratic opponent, Mr.. Cleve-
land, received an overwhelming ma
jority at the polls. Republican vic
tory in 1908, despite the recent shake
up which has taken place in each of
the great parties, is assured, but the
should be made greater than
1t has been in recent campaigns. In
order that we may have this big
margin, it is necessary that the candi-
date be a man who will be supported
by all elements of the party. The
way to make sure that candidate of
that sort will be selected is to let the
republican voters nominate him. At
this time Mr.. Taft stands far and
away ahead of all candidates and
there is little doubt of his nomina-
ton.

"At this time nobody can foresee
the final outcome Of the presidential
contest; but 1t should be borne in
mind that nothing has yet happened
to alter the fact that Illinois has a
first rate chance this year to secure
the presidency"
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-26

According to present indications
the convention will be exceedingly
brief, as its proceedings are likely
to be limited to presidential politics.
The Wallace miner. [volume] (Wallace, Idaho) 1907-current, 1908-03-26

; The republican state convention
will be held In Springfield, March 20.
It does not seem probable at this
time that any organized effort will
be made to secure from the conven-
ton even a second choice declaration
for Taft. The delegates at large will
be instructed for Cannon, but beyond
that they will be unfettered.

RAILROAD MEN LISTEN
TO TAFT

Speaking in Chicago before the Rail
way Mems Independent Taft club, Hon.
VIM. H. Taft, republican candidate for
president, spoke in part as follows con-
corning railroads and railroad employees:
1--WE are interested in that legislation
against the railroads which is Just and
only properly restrictive. We are inter-
ested that there should not be unjust and
drastic legislation preventing their earn
ing proper income. We are all inter-
ested, Of course, that-they should charge
only proper rates, but we are also inter-
ested that they should not be made to do
business on less than Just rates.
II have noticed with a great deal of
interest that the railroad laboring men
are beginning to realize that the pros
perity of the railroads is as much in their
interest as it is in the interest of the
stockholders and officers of the road and
that they propose hereafter to be heard
on the political issue as to the character
of the legislation that shall be passed
with reference to the regulation Of the
railroads. With this direct interest that
railroad laboring men have in the pros
perity Of railroads can they not see that
it is of the utmost importance to prevent
the election of the man whose record will
make returning confidence and prosperi-
ty impossible?
"The whole country is dependent upon
the prosperity of the railroads. The
truth is that the railroads are the great
est single market that we have for manu-
factured products. We are all interested,
| therefore, that the credit of the railroads
should be such as to enable them to bor-
row money with which to carry on con-
struction work. Is it not apparent to
you, therefore, that the election of Mr..
Bryan to the powerful Office Of president,
| with his unstable financial theories and
his uncertain economic propositions, will
convince everyone having capital to in
vest that the business future of this
country is threatened if capitalists with.
hold their money. l submit to those
most interested in this intcligen,
audience that this is the issue OF the full
dinner pail that ought to make them 70,
a third time reject Mr.. Bryan's claim to
be elected to the presidency as helpful
friend to the workingman.

WILD RICE PLANTED
FOR DUCKS

Ward Skyles and Chas Olson were in
town Sunday from Columbia Falls upon
mission which will have the hearty en-
dorsement of everybody in this vicinity.
The gentlemen had with them a supply
of wild rice, and spent the day i'll spread
ing it around Loon lake and at the upper
end of Whtefsh lake.
The chief reason why there are not
more wild waterfowl III this vicinity, it is
believed, is because of the scarcity of
feed, and it is thought that if the wild
rice is given a start it will in few years
furnish plenty of feed for the birds, with
the result that the sportsmen will have
good shooting grounds.
