KIsREREsENT HEPBURN.

That paragon of journalistic end
political virtue, the Spokesman-Re-
view, is just now engaged in one Of
its periodical attacks on Senator
Hepburn. This has been going on
at intervals for SO many years that
the people have come to expect 1t
az a matter Of course. II the senator
was in the least disturbed about 1t,
he could no doubt silence the Spo-
kane paper in the same manner that
many victims Of its malicious at
tacks have adopted. But inasmuch
as the senator stands higher in the
estimation of the people Of Idaho
than ever before. and has just re-
ceived the most flattering endorse
ment from his party that could be
given to any man. he would be justi-
fled in concluding that the long
standing enmity OF the Spokesman
Review. II 1t has any effect at all.
upon his standing with the people
Of Idaho, has ben to his advantage.
This conclusion would be strength
ened by the fate of ex-senator Du-
bois, who has been special pet Of
the Spokane paper in his advocacy
Of the holy cause"
The criticism OF Senator Hepburn
IT. his speech before the Republican
convention is unwarranted by what
he said. and is absolutely refuted by
his public career. II there is any
enc point that he has made clear
In his public utterances 1t is that
he stands for the right Of the people
to make their laws. and in opposi-
ton to the assumption Of autocratic
power by any one man. That has
been the chief grounds for his OPP
position to the present policy of the
forestry department, the tendency to
give one man the power to formulate
rules and regulations which have
the force and effect of law in their.
application to the people. He con-
tends with great force that such
action usurps the power that belongs
alone to congress, and that the peo-
pie are thereby deprived of their
right to voice in the formulation
OF the laws that govern them.
Senator Hevburn's remarks at
Boise which so stirred the Spokane
paper. the paper that assumes guard
ianship over the destiny Of the peo-
pie OF Idaho. had special reference
to the proposed action Of the convan-
ton on the direct primary law.
When he told the convention that il
was "not empowered to legislate for

one can dispute. and ne evidently

TO VOTE OR NOT TO vOTE7

The direct primary is not bring
ing out the vote, and 1t is ques-
tionable whether or not the people
want more or less political machin-
cry. In some OF the counties in
Washington in the primary Just held
1t 10 estimated that less than a third
OF the voters came to the polls to
cast ballot for the candidate OF
their choice. What is true in the
Pacific Northwest has proven true
the country over.
A remedy has been suggested in a
law to make voting compulsory at
primary or regular elections. But
at present voting is a privilege and
not an. obligation. and 1t is hardly
likely that the people will vote t.
compel themselves to vote by chanr
ing the national constitution, as
would be necessary to make the
franchise compulsory.
lN The direct primary adds a com
rlicated machine to the mech a nisn,
Ct government. and the people ap-
pear to have more politics than they
want. In theory the demand TO-
