The victor,should be generou
to the vanquished, and therefor
we will Jet the political corpse O
! Fred T. Dubois, once senate,
from Idaho by grace of demo
cratic votes. and once by repub
lican manipulation, rest in peac,
in the grave which he himself has
digged. He made his fatal mis-
take when he attempted to con
troll the democratic party by re.
publican methods. yet it was per.
haps his training rather than
any innate decentralization that
is to blame. His whole political
life is saturated with the rcpnbli-
can idea OF boss rule, and he at.
tempted to carry this idea into
the democratic councils as a nat
ural result OF his political train
ing. His downfall began when
he wrote into n former platform
thoroughly republican and un-
edmocratic plank attacking a
large portion OF ourpeople or ac-
count OF their religious affilia-
tions, and, ignoring democratic
principles, began a campaign for
their Acknowledgement. The be-
ginning OF the end was at Twin
Falls, and the consummation OF
the downfall OF his leadership at
Wallace. There he could not
herd men like sheep--as Mr..
Brady does--he was in the wrong
party. The result was ineyi.
table.
The DOWNFALL OF a discredited
professional politician is one OF
the saddest spectacles in life. A
man may lose friends and gain
Others; he may see his fortune
disappear, and by energy and
zeal may create another; but
when the professional politician
is tumbled from his pedestal, he
falls like Luciier, never to rise
again.
And in the passing of Dubois
there is a lesson that every man
who aspires to leadership in par
ty councils will do well to heed.
Unlair methods, undemOcratlc
principles, aud boss dictation can
never permanently succeed.
They may triumph for awhile,
but in the end will always fail be-
cause the true American is a SOW
ereign within himself, and will
not long follow the demagogic
commands OF any seli-constitut-
ed boss. And while we bid 9th
ers take a lesson from his down
fall, wo say to Fred Il. Dubois,
requiescat in pace.

for the defense in the trial of Harry
K. Thaw for the killing Of Stanford
