THE BANK OF MONTPELIER

press Is more than ever impressed with the
Importance of Star valley as tributary ter
ritory to Montpelier. An Examiner repre-
sentative has just returned from that section
of the country and his enthusiasm over the
industry and thrift of the Star valley people
is decided and sincere. They have a most
productive country and their business is a
large item to the city that enjoys it.
Montpelier has good portion of the
business now but she has not a monopoly
on it by any means. Other centers are
making bid for this BUSINESS, CokeVille
would like to be the railroad point for Star
valley and is making some determined eff
forts to make the route to their town more
attractive than the one to Montpelier.
Soda Springs is chershing the same thought.
Montpelier can keep the business and
get practically all of it, but she cannot dc
it through inactivity. She must get up
and hustle and protect her rights. Our
representative reports that the roads to
Star valley are far from good. He also
reports that it would not take great
amount of work to make them much better
Other towns in the market for Star valley
patronage are spending sums of money
making their roads passable and attractive
Montpelier has to keep her roads just as
good. She should keep them better. The
people of that country feel that Montpelier
is the natural point. Their interest in this
city is manifested by the fact that the
Examiner now sends over 300 papers tc
Star valley to boni fde subscribers. They
want to trade here and will as long as con
ditions are kept equal. However 1t will
not do to fall behind and Montpelier has 8
responsibility on her hands. The Chamber
of Commerce should loose no time SEEING
that the roads are improved between here
and Star valley.

In recent interview published in the
Boise Statesman Governor Gooding III .
braids the republican state convention for
turning down Burton L. French, and takes
the trouble to connect his defeat with the
actions of the last legislature. The Gov
ernor points to the broken pledges of the
party and says that French was defeated
because he stood for these pledges.
The governor is not satisfied to criticise
matters as they are but without ground
connects the affair with the last legislative
session and upbraids the representatives
who stood by the party at that time Gov
ernor Gooding himself was as largely re-
sponsible for the broken pledges of the
party during the last session as all other
interests put together. It was because he
himself insisted upon interpreting the plat
form and would not allow any other in
terepretation to pass that the pledges were
defeated. It was through his influerc ,
that eighteen republicans in the house made
a combination with twelve democrats and
allowed nothing to pass that wasn't either
Gooding or democratic. One of the planks
IN the platform was the passage of a
primary election law Gooding with his
insurgent democratic organization would
allow no other measure to pass than the
one he had selected and the republicans
would not accept that one: When at the
last state convention the delegates as
sembled turned down a. plank submitted by
the committee pledging direct primary
law that body completely indicated the
members of the legislature who stood out
against the governors Interpretation of
the platform 1t is not to be wondered at
that the governor would -uporaid his party
after it had stamped its disproval upon this
action of his, yet it is well for the voters to
know the motive back of his utterances
that they may not consider too seriously
the talk he is making.

THE COUNT TICKET.

While it is somewhat gratifying to the
republicans of this county to note that the
democrats are so hopelessly divided that
their chances of success at the polls this
fall is in jepordy, it would be most dis
asterous position for the republicans if they
assume the attitude that such dlssention in
the ranks Of the enemy ment easy victory.
It will not do for the party because it
is in power and has the sentiment of a
majority of the public in favor of it's policies
to assume that it will prevail before the
people without the proper effort and show
ing. The republican party will have to
offer strong and representative men to the
voters this fall to be assured of victory
At the republican convention to be held
September &c, the representatives of the
party will have the responsibility of naming
ticket to represent their party in the
coming contest. This ticket should not be
named without careful deiberation, and the
careful consideration of the qualification of
each and every candidate that is presented
to the convention.
The republican party is in excellent
position now to go before the people.
Many have criticized the action of the as
SCISSOR in raising the valuation on county
property cflbiclSu nave U0Gn large
~ based upon substantial argument, never
theless the fact now confronts us, 1.-THE
taxes are less by over three thousand dol
lars than they were last year. That the
administration has been so conducted as to
enable the commissioners to reduce the tax
levy SO materially is all the argument any
citizen need to prove the efficiency of the
administration from a business point of
view.
The condition of the affairs in the of
fee of County Auditor Holmes tell at a
glance the efficiency of his Office. All of
the county officers have records against
which there is really minimum of just re-
proach.
The people are satisfied with the re-
publican administration. They want more
of 1t, provided it is put into the hands of
men as competent as the ones who have
had charge of it the past two years. Such
men are available. No precinct in the
county but has men qualified to serve the
people of the county. It is now up to the
Individual precincts and to the conve ntion
rs q whole. No precinct represented i'm the
convention should ask Office for man not
thoroughly qualified to handle it i'm eff
fcient manner. The convention then
should choose from those presented the
most efficient and elect them the stand ard
bearers of the party. A good ticket is
half the battle and next Saturday is the
time when the matter has to be decided

WALLOWA HEARS ENGINE TOOT
First Passenger Tram Bears Excursion
Into Joseph's Land.

The opening of the new extension of
the o. r. & NJ, railroad into che
Wallowa country was elaborately GEL
ebre ted Sunday. A special excursion
train from LaGrande carrying several
hundred people arrived at the town of
Wallowa at O'Clock and was the first
passenger train to enter the country
for which Chief Joseph made such a
deter mined fight in the late seventies.
People from every section of Wallowa
county were present and enjoyed the
hospitality of the citizens of the city
of Wallowa, the present terminus of
the road. There were also present
repr esentatives of the various Portland
and Spokane newspapers. The COM
mercial associations of Portland were
also represented by prominent business
men.
To reach this wonderful country the
road just opened traverses canyon,
which for scenic beauty and grandeur
is hardly surpassed by the farfamed
Colorado. The line has been built
from Elgin down the Grand Ronde
river to its junction with the Wallowa.
Hugging close to the tapping rapids
of the turbulent stream as it pours its
limpid waters from the smiling valley
beyond, the roadbed is ofrentimes
hewn out of solid rock, crosses and
recrosses the river to prevent tunnel
ing. 1t was the overcoming of this
barrier of nature that long deferred
Hartman from annexing the wealth of
the Wallowa valley
Wallowa City, the present terminus
of the road, is not to enjoy that pres
tige long. A track laying crew is con-
tinuing on up the valley at the rate of
a mile day and will be in Enterprise
with special train service inaugural
ed after October l, and Joseph, the
final terminus of the road, will be
reached before snow flies.

BRYAN WANTS PROOF
Asks President Roosevelt to Furnish
Evidence Against Haskell
in Bribery Matter.

William J. Bryan Tuesday dem and
ed that President Roosevelt prove bis
charge that Haskell was connected
with the Standard Oil company an d
that the Standard Oil was back of the
present Bryan campaign.
The demand was made in telegram
addressed to the chief executive and
came as a result of Roosevelt's state
ment that Taft's defeat would only
bring a lasting satisfaction to but one
set of men who, as shown in the COR
respoudence published by Hearst, were
Foraker. the opponent of Taft within
his own party, and who are now be-
hiud Governor Haskell aud bis asso-
ciates, the opponents of Taft and the
opposite party.
Bryan's telegram is worded court
eously, bat can hardly be ignored by
the president, or considered other than
as challenge. He says:
In statement given out by you,
you endorse the charges against Gov
ernor Haskell, to the effect that he
was once employed by the Standard
Oil company in connection with an
attempt to bribe Attorney General Mo-
nett of Ohio to dismiss suit pending
against that company.
'In endorsing this charge you attack
the democratic party. saying that Has
kell stands high in the councils Of
Bryan.
"This is charge so serious that l
cannot allow it to pass unnoticed.
"Mr. Haskell demands an investiga-
,ion now and agrees with you that if
he is guilty he is unfit to be connected
with the democratic party.
II think you will agree with me
that if he is innocent he deserves to
be exonerated from 80 damning an
accusation.
'You add that the publication of
this correspondence has not merely
justified in striking fashion the action
of the present administration, but that
it also casts curious sidelight ou the
attacks upon the administration in the
Denver convention and in Mr.. Bryan's
campaign, as the selection of Mr.. Has
kell as chairman of the resolutions
committee at Denver and also as treas
urer of the national committee had
my approval and endorsement.
"For this reason feel it my duty
to demand an immediate investigation
of tho oha roo w hich 10 andorspd nv ha
president of the United States, as one
in your high position as we'll as your
sense of Justice would prevent your
sanotioning any such charge if not
proven.
~ respectfully request you to fur.
nish what proof you possess or If you
have none, request that you indicate
the method in which the truth may
Ee asoertained.
