Widows Pensions.

That the war soldiers widows pension will be-
come fixed by legislation during the winter session
of congress seems assured. Speaker Cannon favored
it and Senator McCumber, chairman of the senate
committee on pensions, favors it. The bill was
reported out of the house committee on pensions as
a committee measure and passed the house with but
dissenting vote.
1t will provide uniform pension of $1a per month
to every widow of soldier The widow pension
is now So per month and there are nearly 100000
on the rolls The law will admit about 10000
others.
The proposed law will increase the pension ex-
penses about $14,OoOOoO and many of the widows,
being much younger when married than their hus-
bands will survive when the last civil war soldier has
been laid away There are now $3.50 Mexican war
widows on the pension rolls and half as many In
dian war widows. The proposed widow pension
act IS intended as companion legislation to the sol
diers age pension act of February g. 1907

him the sen1blance of anything calculated to en-
thuse. Brady represents ring rule, party perhdy'
Republican dishonor, broken promises and dis
graceful reputation of a Republican platform 10
support him one must need repudate all OF Idaho
Republicansm to which any Republican can point
without blush of shame
Notwithstanding the beliefs of this northern mould
er of opinion, Chairman Brady would give strength
the ticket in those sections of the state in which
Republican victories are won with Mormon votes.
If he becomes the gubernatorial nominee of his
party it will be with the consent of the hierarchy
at Salt Lake and from the headquarters of the church
will go forth the command to the faithful to cast
their ballots for selections scancted by the spirit
that stands guard the poygamous homes OF
the southeast.
The north may proclaim against the machine and
its dishonored promises but it will effect nothing
for respectable Republcanism until it repudates the
alliance that eventuate in the disrepuable prac
tees of which it complains.
The north has thus far failed to appreciate the
significance of the churchly compact. Uncontami-
mated itself by the domestic vice that has become
fostering in the south, it uniformly raties the
deals made by the representatives of the party in
the SOUTH which always involve the protection of
Mormonsm from the consequences of its sin.
If party perfdy, dishonor broken promises and
disgraceful reputation follow Gas they have), the
north assumes its share of the odiou burden through
its acquiescence in a coalition that ought to doom
any political party to defeat
Whether Mr.. Brady or some other man is the pro-
duct of the slate making combination that drags its
Shiny trail through the infested counties of the south
east and up to the portals of the temple below, the
consequences will be the same. The church will con-
troll the party and gain the protection it seeks
through perfdy, dishonor, broken promises and re-
pudiation; and the north, uncontamnated though it
be, will participate through acquescence and the aid
of its ballots if it manifests the subservency of the
past

Misquoted History.

In an address before the Tppecanoe Club, Of
Cleveland Ohio, last week Secretary Taft explained
how the Republic entered upon its of imperial
ISM At the opening of the war with Spain, he said
there was no intention of adding to the territorial
possessions of the United States but at the close of
the war it was found that the government had as
sumed new responsibilities.
Mr.. Tafts words were these:
"Then it was that Mckinley was obliged to pon-
eer In the treaty of Paris he forced to assume
responsibilities likely to remain with the American
government for several generations, possibly CEN
fury.
There were many who hoped it might be possible
in the treaty avoid taking the Philippines TAX
ing Porto Rico, and that under the Teller resolution
we should part with Cuba and avoid adding to our
territorial jurisdiction But it was impracticabe.
The conditions of the islands took from Spain
forced us to hold them"
Those of the American people who remember the
conditions of the treaty of Paris will be compelled
to disagree with Mr.. Taft for we did not take the
Philippine Islands from Spain. We bought them
war; for Manila the capital city, did not fall into
the hands of the United States troops until after the
peace protocol had been signed.
President McKinley's instructions to the peace
commissioners when they left for Paris did not con-
template the seizure of the Philippine group. He
thought naval station at Manila would be sufficient
or perhaps the island of Luzon. On the arrival of
the commissioners at Paris a cablegram found
awaiting them in which the President directed them
to take in the whole archipelago.
He informed by way of reply that it could

King and Prince Murdered.

Anarchists of Portugal have repeated the i'm
potent experiment of king killing that they might
rid themselves of obnoxious system. A king
does not die with the individual upon whose head a
crown is placed, but lives in the succession that
Immediately procaims itself So all the anarchists
of Portugal have done is to murder a MANN this
instance two-for the crown prince, Louis Philippe
fell with Don Carlos, his royal father, before the
cowardy guns of banded assassins at Lisbon on Sat
urday last.
A younger prince and the queen mother survived
the onslaught and together they will rule during the
minority of the surviving prince with the queen as
regent and when the prince is old enough he will
wear the blood stained crown of his slaughtered
sire, unless there is change in the form of gov
eminent.
The royal family, riding in a carriage on the streets
of Lisbon, was fired upon by party of armed
with carbines The king and the crown prince were
instantly killed. the younger prince was slightly
wounded and the queen escaped injury though she
endeavored to shield her from the bullets of the
aSSaSsins
1t is true that misgovernment has afflicted Portu-
gal 1t has been government of absoutism since
last spring, when the monarch dissolved the paria-
ment in an unconstitutional way and Premier Franco
clothed with excessive power, which enabled
him to Cypress the people. Governing methods have
since been as reprehensible as they we'll could be
and some measure of relief was due the people But
they have not obtained it in killing prince and a
king removing the effect of system, rather than
the They have merely achieved improbable
revenge.
The populace may yet precipitate a revolution and
fight for their liberties in courageous way, if abso
lutism reSiSts. Until they overturn the governing
SYSTEM they will have one kind of king or another
and assassination will not relieve them for living
king is always ready to take the place of dead
king.

not be DONE for the above stated, and it was
then that he suggested the purchase of the islands and
they were accordingly made the subject of deal and
we're surrendered by Spain for consideration.
So when Mr. Taft says it impossible to avoid
taking the Philippines he is msquoting some very
important history and it is history we'll known to
civilization, for it made at the capital of for
