IDAHO POLITICS.

Lewiston, Sept. 12.-An i'm.
portant development in state pol.
itics has resulted in the calling
of state convention of impor-
tant citizens to put ticket in
the field as protest against the
alleged demoralized and unrep.
resentative character of both the
old party organizations as now
exists. A meeting was held at
Occur d'Alene on September 10
to enlist approval and special
publicity was withheld until af-
ter consultation with leaders
known to be dissatisfied. Such
approval, it appears, has been
secured, as the call handed to
the press today would indicate.
The convention is called for
Troy, September %, and says:
The recent Republican state
convention signally failed to
meet the almost universal de-
mand for direct primary law
which would enable the voters
express, untrammeled, their
choice of candidates, is conceded
by everybody and while we are
shocked and surprised at the I'M.
American utterances of its can
didate for United States senator.
we suspect he but voices the
sentiments of those who control
len its deliberations, and that
their desire is to create a legis-
lature that will be mere chattel
of the Legislative lobby. We be-
lieve their action was predicated
on the fact that the Democratic
party is hopelessly rent asunder
On the rock of personal ambition
and it will offer only feeble op.
position TO their candidates or
audacious program.
"A large portion of the dele
gates to this convention were
elected months in advance of the
time when the convention was
called to meet and were used as
merely a personal asset of the
chairman of the state committee
who became its candidete for
governor.
In the face of such shameful
conditions no partisan is morally
bound TO obey his party's dicta-
ton; and we call upon our citi.
Gems who prefer the welfare of
the state and the preservation of
it's good name among the people
of the nation, to the temporary
aScendancy OF any political par
ty, to lay aside craftsmanship for
the time being and join with us
in administering rebuke at the
polls to these debauching politi-
cal tendencies. ="
The call is signed by T. r.
Dunson, president, banker of
st. Maries, and II. Grant, secre-
tary, a lumberman of Harrison.
Boise Statesman.
From the above it would in
dictate that the Republicans of
Idaho have family troubles, as
we'll as the Democrats. Let 'em
fight. The people will do the
on November Bird.

Relative to soliciting for the
campaign fund is nothing to us,
as we do not make a cent out of
it. We started this popular sub
scription list by request of the
National Democratic Committee.

alton method, and the teacher
should choose the most adapted
to himself and class. More
depends upon quality of results
than quantity. AS to how much
talking should be done by
the teacher, he alone knows
best, but think twice lest you
talk too much; at least the teach
or should not tell the student
what he has had chance to
learn for himself. Do not
burden your students by hashing
over the identical explanations
lin the Sunday School Quarter
lies, but be so full Of the lesson
you can tactfully bring it to the
class Ill a new and interesting
manner. Never force students
to say something good when
they do not feel like it, but
bring the spirit of Jesus to them
and all they need is a chance to
express the deep JOY of their
souls.
When the thirty minutes
allotted to the class recitation is
up, stop teaching at once and
give heed to the lesson review
and Sunday school report. Be-
lieving that we cannot in one
hour on Sabbath do the whole
work of instruction demanded of
the Sunday school, a good paper
should supplement a good lesson.
Religious books should be on
hand for every pupil. A good
library is as important factor
IN character forming as the Sun
day school lesson and should
have as important a place.
The Sunday school should in
crease til power of the pulpit.
think perhaps not enough en-
enlargement is given in this day
to the Sunday school pupils to
attend the church services.
Most children scamper off home
at the end of the Sunday school
hour without a thought of at
tending the church service.
This is wrong. If he does not
form the habit of church attend
ance while young, it will be hard
to form when he grows older.
Parents and teachers do wrong
IN eXcusing this on the ground
of their inability to understand
the sermon. When will they be
able to understand, pray, if they
never try? A child has a great
deal more understanding than he
is usually given credit for. With
this end in view, the Sunday
school should do more to en-
courage church attendance. Let
the superintendent announce the
preaching service, call for
public recitation of the last text
preached on and teach the school
TO pray for the pastor.
With all Of its duties, cares
and anXieties the Sunday school
is not a burden but a blessed
privilege.
1t should be the happiest and
best hour in Gods holy day for
young and old. What is the
use of putting our minds and
hearts into our Sunday school
work? God knows this best.
When we shall have finished our
course and God has given us
place among his angels, when we
can witness the gathering in of
the golden sheaves of the seed
that we sowed on earth; as we
look down through the ages and
witness the coming of those
whom the influence Of our lives
is bringing home to sing with us
the sweet melodies of the soul,
then, we shall know only in part,
out not until Time here Shall
nave vanished, and the world
shall have yielded up her living,
md those we have helped are
gathered around US IN Glory, not
until then, will we know fully
he value of our present Sunday
school hour.

the night Tafts time was devoted to
a study Of the platforms of the two
parties. When he concluded his
labors he will not only be an author.

ventions, but on party platforms of the
past. Mr. Taft became so thoroughly
interested in the study of records that
he did not find time to dictate line
OF his speech of acceptance.
Tuesday, after his usual morning
game of golf, he again dived into the
records. He is securing the complete
seclusion desired, as there was not a
single party to lead here to inter
rupt his work.
