The Boise citizen. (Boise, Idaho) 1906-1910, 1908-06-19
Died A DEMOCRAT

According to an Associated Press dispatch sent out
Yesterday Mr. Eugene Pringle the man who presided at
the mass meeting which birth to the Republican party
in 1854 died at Jackson Mich, Monday night SAYS the
Butte Miner
information that twenty years after ne had acted as wet
nurse for this political offspring he became dlsglsed
with its record that he dsowned and turned to Democracy
for consolation
It is not surprising that Mr. Pringle should have be
come ashamed and Inundated the OF his child
bt rather surprising that he should have had the cour
age to publicly denounce it on account OF the bad record
it had made
inc into the world of this political infant could have ever
believed that it would be such bloated spoiled
vavward youth as it has done
Lincoln could never have foreseen the day when the
constitution would be laughed by his party and when
eTblican president would in all seriousness, uphold
and advocate amending the constitution by judicial con
struction instead OF by invoking the provisions OF tt
document which provides the only i"lul "tS III "il
it can be amended
The old leaders of the organization certainly never
expected to see Republican executive INSIST upon naming
& presidential candidate of his party and using the power
of patronage enforce his will upon the members OF that
Pennblicans like this Mr. Pringle did imagine
that they were organizing party which was to become
the nant tool of trusts and which would make the citizens
f Es country stand and deliver while the manufacturers
Went through the pockets of the common people.
Such men never expected that their party would elect
president who would accept campaign fund OF quar-
fer Of million dollars from Ny Dear Hartman one year
- who would then turn round the year and call his
benefacor an unqualified liar and an undesirable citi-

those Of his wife But now he is in the dark room Of
Washington hospital
We are inclined to. think that he is actuated by
the wish to just what Aldrch Fairbanks the
Democrats who deserted him look like.
The North American watches the happenings every
where So Gore of Oklahoma no novelty. We heard a
year ago and told readers then of the freaksh thing
that the newest state about do boy blind from
his fifteenth year talked day after day to meetings
and asked the people who heard him send him the
senate of the United States.
To us in the calm conservative sedate east it seemed
la circus sort Of thing for blind mount the stump
and tell his feow-citizens how had come into
his life and ever after had been his eyes.
We, in the older civilizations grow somewhat cynical
SO when the crude state sent Gore to the senate we
thought that Oklahoma had fosted the nation JET
Davis or Vardaman or Bloody Brides Waite, merely
because of sentimental sympathy with blind man and
woman who had read him all the learning that has made
him enlightened.
The election of Gore and the growth Of Oklahoma
looked upon merely queer but consderabe phases OF
national development. All freaksh and uncouth-
But now, candor let be said that the blind senator
from the west has opened eyes
Whether he comes from the dark OF the hospital
seeing the green things growing and the gold OF the sunlight
matters not 50 far as his ework concerned lie may
still in the backness to which he accustomed with
that little his sole link with the thought
of the world None the less viii this have done his
work a world made up OF
Neither children nor gods,
But men in world of men
No more need be said Cores ewes failed him once.
That once was when he felt himself safewhen, heaven
knows he should have felt safe senator among senator's
in his heplessneSS and his greatness
Surely that was the one time when his wife did not
feel that She needed 1t pretty picture to keep
in memory that our elder statesmen gave to US last week
But as for Gore of Oklahoma blind seeing matters
not The bond of manhood holds taut through all times
and all peoples Over the mountains and the rivers and
the plains the message of the east goes to Oklahoma:
Send this blind to the senate America needs
Americans! Praise Cod We've seen man this day.
