The paramount issue in Idaho is
equal taxation. The republican plat
form last election promised the people
a square deal. After election the
party leaders forgot about it, and for
the past two years the farmers of Latah
county have been unjustly taxed to
pay the bill for republican perfdy.
The merchant has been robbed because
corporate interests are preferred. The
people get it in the neck because the
republican bosses of Idaho prevented
the fulfillment of the plank Of the last
republican platform which declared for
equal taxation. What is the remedy?
The defeat of the bosses. Let the
people refuse to vote any one of this
gang back into office.

What's the use worrying because an
occasional American heiress marries a
European nonetity with a worthless
title? An American girl, whether rich
or poor, who would prefer some worn
out sprout of decayed nobility to an
honorable, healthy American is un-
worthy to become the wife of a self
respecting man. We may mourn the
loss of few millions of money, but
that is all we have lost.

One of the things the people of
Idaho will expect Senator Hepburn to
explain is why, after the republican
party had pledged itself for a direct
primary law, he used all his power to
defeat such a measure, and lent his
influence to the reputation Of this
pledge. Senator Hepburn will find
that he is not above the people, and
that he will have to act honestly, at
least while he is a public servant.

A Tacoma firm contracted with
young man for a certain amount OF
work, and specified that no employee
should smoke cigarettes. The young
man insisted on smoking, got fired, and
then got it in the neck when he sued
the company. If there is anything on
earth that would disqualify a young
man for any position of responsibility it
is cigarette smoking, or, in fact, any
kind Of smoking. Troy has several
young men and few old boys who
will do themselves kindness by throw
ing away their pipes. OF course there
is no law against young man being a
fool, but, sooner or later, he who in

Mr.. Mcbride says that, if governor,
he will sign a local option bill if one
is passed by the state legislature. Of
course he would; he could not stand
upon the republican platform and say
otherwise, But you didn't hear him
say he was in favor of local option, did
you? AS a matter of fact, everything
points to the fact that Mcbride is not
in favor of anti-saloon legislation, and
with the saloons supporting him and
responsible for his election if he is ell
ected, he need not be expected to work
very hard to get a proper local option
law through the legislature. The man
who is in earnest about this thing, and
is really in favor of legislation provid-
ing for local option, will vote for Mr..
Cosgrove.

PUBLIC SCHOOLS
W OPEN SEPTEMBER 8

AS the public schools will open
soon, Tuesday September Sth, it is i'm
portant that consideration be given to
some matters of especial interest to
patrons and pupils. 1t is the policy
of the school board to do away with
mid-year promotions, both in the
grades and in the high school, as soon
as possible. AS one step toward this
the board has ruled that no first grade
class shall be admitted at the middle
OF the year. Beginners, however,
that are six years of age at the open
ing of school, or that will be six years
of age by February /, 1909. will be
admitted up to October /.
In order that the high school en-
trance requirements may be uniform
with those of other schools of the
county, and that the work of the
grades may be made as thorough as
possible, the board has further ruled
that no pupil shall be admitted to the
high school until he has passed the
state eighth grade examination. No
pupil above the sixth grade will be ad
mitted to the College Hill school.
Pupils of the seventh and eighth grades
living north and east of the Northern
Pacific railroad will attend the Sunny
side school
Some changes have been made in
the high school course of study, that
it will be we'll to name. These changes
have been made in order to make few
err classes, and thus enable the teach
ers to do more efficient work, and to
make the course conform more nearly
to that of the State. All pupils,
both of the A and B divisions, of the
ninth grade, taking the science work
will take agriculture the first semester
and physical geography the second.
Plane geometry will be completed in
the tenth year and advanced algebra
in the first half of the eleventh. Solid
ond half of the eleventh year How
ever, as the pupils that will enter the
eleventh grade this year have had ad-
vanced algebra, they will complete
plane geometry the first semester.
There will be no classes this year in
American history and civil government,
] hut l1 IF hot al
enth grades will take modern history
Pupils of the eleventh grade in the sci
entific course will take German instead
of science. Those taking the Latin
course will read Cicero.
A considerable number of books
for reference work in high school his
tory and literature have been placed ir
the library. Some excellent books fol
use in the work in literature in the
lower grades have also been added.
For the systematic study of current
events, the seventh and eighth grades
will be supplied weekly with a dozen
copies of The Pathfinder.
| wish to take this opportunity to ask
for the cooperation of all interested in
the welfare of the school. l feel that
the patrons, as we'll as l, wish the
years work to be highly successful.
To attain the highest success, however,
it is necessary that patron, teacher
and superintendent work together, as
assisting one another in every way
possible. Let US begin the year with
the understanding that we are all
working for the highest good of the
individual child, the school, and the
community.
Respectfully.
