Hepburn Criticized.

The Spokane Spokesman Review still feels the
sting of Senator Heyburns utterances before the
Idaho republican convention. 1t declares:
Justice logic.
In Idaho it has become the informal practice for
party conventions to nominate candidates for the
United States senate these nominations to have
moral weight in binding members of the legislature
vote for the conventions senatorial nominees.
Senator Hepburn glad enough to have this
nomination by the Boise convention last week But
immediately it was voted he appeared before the
convention expressed his great qualification and i'm
medately plunged into of the most astounding
declarations ever made anywhere by political boss
to party convention, repudiating the tme-honored
principle of platforms and pledges and, in effect,
sorting that while the convention could pledge and
instruct the republican legislative candidates in Idaho
to vote to return him to the United States senate
it must not attempt to pledge bind or instruct him
in any manner whatsoever on any matter any
question of interest which might arise in the United
States senate.
II have always opposed as I do now,' said Senator
Hepburn to the convention any platform which may
show any attempt to legislate for the people You
are not empowered to adopt such a platform You
may recommend and if the officers the people elect
find your recommendations sound and base for
legislation they will act You are here to recommend
not to pledge. We want platform that will get
around pledging the legislature to any law"
Couldn't Senator Hepburn see that his un-Ameri-
can and unrepublican demand for platform that
will get around pedgng the legislature to any law
was Numerically inconsistent with the attempt that
had just been made by the convention, undoubtedly
under his manipulation to bind the legislature to
elect him to the United States senate? If a state
convention is to pledge bind to platform and
principles an attempt by it to bind to spoils and
Offices would become matter for jest and ridicue.

Short Skirt I.aaua

London women are forming society
called the Short Skirt league, whose
members pledge themselves to wear alb
breyiated skirts which will not be dust
collectors and microbe traps. A promi.
nent London doctor has given the new
league strong approval for the follow
ing reasons: ANY sample OF street
dust will be found to contain bacteria
of almost every infectious disease
known, yet women walk through the
streets with trailing dresses, accumu-
lating quantities Of dust laden with
disease germs. These skirts are then
brushed in the house, often in the bed
room, and millions Of organisms are
let loose in the air, to b. breathed into
