FOUR years ago there was
apathy among Missouri Demo-
Gratis. This year the Republicans
have a big dose of that disease
and thousands of them will stay
away from the polls. They have
baked at Mr.. Taft's being ramm-
ed down their threats by Roose-
welt and his postmasters. They
are also disgustod at the weak
fight being put up by the State
managers.

The true underlying issue in the
Presidential campaign has been
indicated with peculiar distinct
ness by President Boosevelt's Sec
rotary Of War, Luke E. Wright,
in a speech in behalf Of Mr.. Taft.
Speaking at Terrace Garden, New
York, on the 10th, as reported in a
Taft paper, the Chicago Inter-
Ocean, of the goth, Secretary
Wright said Mr.. Bryan had on sew
eral occasions declared that the
President of the United States is
merely the hired man of the peo-
pie. while such a statement may
tickle the groundlings,' the Secre-
tary said, 1T makes the righteous
grieve.' In nc proper sense, the
Secretary added, 'is he the "hired
man" of the people, He then out
lined the power of the President
in an endeavor to show that the
President is not a hired man, but
the chief ruler of the people. 'In
many respects he is vested with
with powers and duties as large as
most ~sovereigns, and, in fact, may
affect the fortunes and future Of
his people to a degree equal to that
of most of the crowned heads of
the civilized world" Here we
have1 a ~clear-cut discrimination.
Mr.. R~oosevelt's Secretary of War
criticizes Mr.. Bryan for regarding
the President as the head servant
of the people,; he asks votes for
Mr.. Taft because he sees that Mr..
Taft stands for the doctrine that
the President is not the head SER
want but the head master Of the
people. The meaning of the two
candidates. could not be better ex-
pressed. Mr.. Taft is of aristo-
cratic temperament, tendencies,
and spirit; and aristocracy looks
upon public officials as rulers OF
the people. Mr.. Bryan, on the
other hand, is of democratic tenn
permanent, tendencies, and spirit
and democracy looks upon public
officials as servants of the people.
A master or a servant, that is what
the people ofthis country will vote
for next month, and one or tht
other will be elected. There is NJ
third choice. They will vote TO;
William H. Taft, who has neve
held an elective office and was pre-
pared for administrative function
by appointment to the Philippine
as ruler of the people and not thei
servant; or they will vote for Will
liam j. Bryan, who has been twic
chosen to elective Office, ant
whose preparations for admins
trative functions are of the kim
that would make him the servan
of the people and not their ruler
Between these two will the choic
of the people be made, and the on
they deserve is the one they wi,
get-a public master or a publ
servant.-The Public.

THE PHOSPHATE MINES.

The fact that the San Francisco Chem
zeal Company has resumed operations, is
welcome news to this community The
money brought into the community by this
enterprise is all clear gain.
In the sale of any ordinary product,
such as farm produce or livestock, the com
munity is simply turning an already valu-
able asset into money. In the shipping of
the product of any mine it is the turning of
dirt, that has always been held worthless,
into cash, which circulates in the commun-
ity. The phosphate has always been there,
it is true, but without the operation of the
company it is of no value, and the s.. 900
per month that they spend right here in
Montpelier in their operations may be con-
sidered as clear gain To the community.
The companyis putting into circulation this
amount of money for which they take out
absolutely nothing for which the community
can feel the loss.
Beside the circulation of s.. 900 per.
month directly in the community, the oper-
alton of the mines adds TO the standing of
Montpelier as railroad point BY adding
S., 600 or more per month TO the freight re-
ceipts of the Short Line.

LOOKS GOOD FOR IDAHO.

Different newspapers and individuals
familiar with the general financial situation
IN the United States have made the pre-
dction that within the next few months
there would be more money available for
speculative purposes than even before the
panic.
Recent Developments show that there
is some basis for this view. Money is be-
coming available for a number Of large
enterprises. Railroad operations that were
stopped when the late panic came on have
been resumed. The crew working down
the Snake River to Huntington has been
started to work. The electric railroad from
Miner to Gooding which was held up for a
time is now going ahead. Another line is
being arranged from Twin Falls into New
ada All Of these are projects that were
stopped for the panic.
Those who attempt to analyze the con-
dition say that large capitalists in the east
who suspended their operations because Of
the money furry have become nervous be-
cause their money is lying idle and making
them nothing, and they are determined to
get it in action again. This activity just on
the verge of national campaign, when it is
ususlly supposed that money will be tied I'D.
is really most suggestive.
1t is upon the speculative money that
idaho depends for her future standing as
state. Idaho is full of possibilities. Her
undeveloped resources are as great or
greater than any state in the Union. Cap
ital does not ask better opportunity for
speculation than can be found within the
borders Of the state. The immense irrigat-
ion, mining, agricultural and power posi-
bilities of this state are most tempting prop
ositions to capital that is looking for
chance to make large returns by assuming
some risk.
The growth of the state in the past
few years has been something remarkable
and most of the growth has been due TO the
activity of foreign capital in the state. AS
soon as the money market is again as it
used to be, idaho will continue her for
ward progress by leaps and bounds.

SCHOOL. CLOSING.

The Montpelier public schools closed
yesterday. The graduating exercise last
night were well attended BY parents who
are proud of the record their children have
have made. Twenty one young people
passed from the ranks of the eighth grade
and are eligible next year to enter the high
school,
The school year just closed is one Of
the most successful in the history of
Montpelier. Under the able leadership of
Prof Banghart the Montpelier schools
have taken their place among the best in
the state, and the able educators who have
visited our institutions have been loud in
their praise of the work done. We are es-
peclally fortunate in having secured the
services Of practically the same corps OF
teachers for next year. The lower floor OF
the new high school building will be in use
for the opening Of the school year next
year, and with the competent corps OF
OF teachers we may look forward to even a
more successful term than the one just
closed.

ATTRACTING GREAT INTEREST

Few land sales in history have attract
ed the attention and widespread interest
that the opening of the 1000 acres Of land
at HOLSTER, near Twin Falls will attract
The opening is next Monday. and it is safe
to estimate that few towns in Idaho will
have greater population than the town
OF Twin Falls will have on that day. At
the Jerome opening last October approxim-
ately two thousand people registered and
applied for land Over 10000 acres were
sold the first three days. The good faith
shown by the company opening this land IN
the past has given settlers confidence and
they believe that everything will be as
represented. Inquiries that have been re-
celved by the company regarding the Sal
mon River project indicate that the regis
tration at this sale will be the greatest vet
The land will sell for $40 per acre with So
paid at the time of filing, and ten years in
which to pay the balance.

1t is with regret that the Examiner
publishes this week statement that Mr..
Mattson who has been working in the inter
ests of cooperative creamery here has
gone TO other fields. Mr.. Madison states
that he will return as he is sure tile people
wants creamery, but it has taken him 50
much longer to arouse the interest than he
anticipated that he is not able to STAY and
complete the work while was he at it. Mr.
Mattson has found that the people want
the creamery, but have thu same old fail
ing of wanting some one else to put up the
money. It is sincerely to be hoped that as
soon as Mr.. Mattson returns this sentiment
will have changed and that all who are con-
vinced of the practibility of his plan will
get behind it and we will have creamery
started before he leaves again.

In many prominent stocks it was evil dent that large talent short interest was becoming uneasy and the driving in of the bears was responsible for some very sudden gains in various qharters of the market in the forenoon trading. This was one of the features that was not liked by close observers who feared that it would leave the market technically the weaker and possibly be followed by serious set back.

their profits in the hurly burly of the large transactions. The market show ed the effect of this change in tech nical conditions after that. The re- duction of the short interest which had been driven to cover by the extent of the advance satisfied a demand from one source. The early market showed the effect of this change in technical conditions after that The reduction of the short interest which had been driven to cover by the extent of the advance satisfied a demand from one source. The early market to-day showed some expansion of commission house demand also, at tracted by the appearance of reviving interest and strong recovery in the market. This demand facilitated the taking of profits by the professional party which has conducted the specu- lation up to this point. The later market became dull and hesitating in tone in consonance with these develop ments. There was little in the news of the day to indicate marked change in recent conditions. The usual fore casts of the weekly currency move ment agreed in reporting very large cash gain, the estimates differing to some extent on the amount of cash from local sources which has come into sight during the week.
 The stock market rallied briskly from a sharp reaction when these esti- mates appeared. A heavy cash gain this week has been taken for granted, however, throughout the week. follow ing the evidence in last weeks bank statement of a decisive turn in the movement
 With the reaction in the stock market caused by the speculative profit taking there came into consid- eration again some of the topics which were driven into the background by the active rise in prices. Financial needs of some of the railroad systems of which the credit is not high, gave rise to renewed misgivings. The pres sure on Southern Railway securities, l especially, was conspicuous. The rap 1 id inflow of cash to bank reserves Is expected to be taken advantage of to replenish the United States treasury's working balance by some further withdrawals of government deposits. i The markets weak closing was under the influence of the slump in Southern Railway stocks and bonds with its strong suggestion and serious financial embarrassment for the company. !

HARTMAN EARNINGS POOR

The volume of trading during the first half of the day was about 40 per cent. larger than during the same in- terval Thursday, being close to 600,0Oo shares up to noon. Reading, Union Pacific, St. Paul, Pennsylvania, Ameri- can Smelling. and others scored note- worthy gains, reaching the highest prices since the panic of October last. in most cases. But at midday there was substantial setback, some stocks losing a point or two of the early gain. The market became quiet early in the afternoon, with partial rally from the setback A feature of the day was the broadening of the bond market, with many more issues dealt in.

The publication of the November earnings of the Hartman lines. which were regarded as distinctly unfavor- able, particularly those of Southern Pa cific. which showed decrease of more than $1,000,000 in net. had much to do with the midday selling of stocks. It was argued that If the Hartman roads could not do any better, the game must be true of other systems, Besides, 1t was contended that December is likely to make still poorer exhibit. South ern Pacific stock was distinctly heavy at midday. and Union Pacific lost all of It's early gain.
