old white dog, which appeared to be
very worthless, as be hung around
the house all day, sleeping, says the
St. Joseph Gazette. Coming home
at an early hour In the morning,
when the streets and alleys and ell
thoroughiares were deserted, one OF
the residents discovered the dog's
value to the negroes. His employ.

Editorial.
HANDS THEM A LEMON.

The Oregon Short Line through the
Republican party hands the people OF
the State OF Idaho lemon.
Two years the republican party through
its platform promised the people that, if
we elected the republican ticket, we
would have an "anti-pass law" on our
statute books. That was one of the
blanks repudiated. The excuse of Sena'
tor Hart for tearing up the bill was be-
cause the plank did not specify what
kind of an anti-pass law the people
wanted This time the platform max
ers took no chances, they specified in the
plank that the republican party favored
anti-pass law applying to the state Off
GERS and employees of the state. Now
lust what does such plank mean 1t
means simply this, that the Oregon Short
Line can favor their political representa-
tives in every county in which their road
runs. Any person who has any political
prestige is taken into the system and by
the use Of passes he can manipulate con-
VentlOnS, can traVei lfOl PiaOo w Pi"~S
and do his lobbying with the people and
in general make good fellow OF himself.
Idaho wants no such an anti-pass law as
promised in the present republican state
platform. Give US an anti-pass law
modelled after the law in Wisconsin or
Iowa. If the present republican plat
form is carried out all that it will mean
to the people of the State OF Idaho is
this. all members of the state land board
and all of the states employees will have
to pay full fare and the people will have
to nav it. AS the matter stands the
state saves about s25, 100000 year on
account of passes. Garry out this yeal
the republican platform and it means
raise of $25, 900, 90 and no relief from ex-
esting conditions in taxes. Give US
good law or let the matter rest where
is. If you elect democratic governor
and democratic legislature you will ge
a good anti-pass law. If you elect a re
publican governor and republican leg
-islature you viii only make matter
worse on the railroad question.

EARLY RETURNS FROM NEBRAS.
kA PRIMARIES POINT

Lincoln. Neb., Sept. 2. = Returns
from the static, which are coming in
slowly, indicate that Shallenberger
has been nominated by the Demo
Gratis for governor over Mayor Dahl
man. On the Republican ticket 1t
seems probable that J. A. Williams
has been nominated for railroad com
missioner, Notwithstanding the fight
made on him by the railway employees
association.
Governor Sheldon and several other
state officials had no opposition on the
Republican ticket and will therefore
be nominated. In most instances the
Democrats had from two to four con-
testants for many Of the offices and
nothing definite is known asto the
outcome on that ticket.
Mayor Dahlman of Omaha, who
with former Congressman Shallen-
berger and G.. w. Berge of Lincoln
were candidates for the Democratic
nomination for governor, are running
close in many of the counties of the
state.
The Republicans have nominated
Congressman Norris, Boyd, Pollard
and probably Hinshaw, with the Sixth
district not heard from. Congressman
Hitchcock was renominated by the
Democrats Of the First districe.s
