vclopment and not to the Republi-
can, party but rather in spite of the
Republican party. And now we
come to the present psnic-the one
which our Republican friends term
Wall Street panic-and. by the
way, what sad commentary it is
on that party that under its legis-
lation a small group of men has be-
come powerful enough to parallyze
the industries of the entire coun-
tutions commenced to fail in Octo-
Der, 1907, and the record has not
yet closed. There was no apparent
cause for this contraction and still
it came and it came under a Re-
publican president and a Republic
can Congress. Farmers, mer-
chants and leboring men who had
money in the banks were told that
they could not Withdraw their de-
posits Cashiers checks and
clearing house certificates were is
sued by those who had for years
preached against ''debased cuI =
rency.' Hundreds of thousands of
men have been thrown out of en-
ployment or had their hours of
work reduced. Funds were es-
tablished in the cities 70 aid the
INDECENT unemployed. Where is
the difference between the panic of
1893 and the panic of 1907? The
difference is this: If depositors had
made concerted demand upon the
banks for their money during this
panic as they did in 1898 not one
bank in d hundred would be open
for business today. The people
have learned patience since 1893
and were willing that the banks
be given an opportunity to pay out =.
They were not inflamed by in
cendiary articles in the Democratic
press as they had been by the Re-
publicans papers in 1898, and by
virtue of the same pstience and
br broadening of thought they are not
going to be deceived by Republican
prosperity canards.

Mr.. Taft opposes the Demo-
cratic plan of guaranteeing bank
deposits but favors the postal saw
ings banks. This is quite natural.
Postal savings banks would ac-
-cumulate funds from smaller COM
unities. These would in turn find
their way to New York and be de-
posted by Republican Secretary
of the Treasury in favored Wall
Street banks, thus giving those in
situations more of the peoples mon
cy with which to exploit the people
themselves. Postal Savings banks
might be all right; but not when
such a man as George B. Cortel-
you has charge of placing the gov
eminent funds or funds entrusted to
the government.

whether il was good common

LOOK TO HOUSE MEMBERS.

Voters of Idaho have duty to
perform equally as important as the
election of a Democratic President
and Democratic Governor. We
must see to it that a Democratic
administration is upheld by a Dem
ocratic Congress. President Roose-
welt recommended certain remedial
legislation to Congress, and his rec
concentrations were spurned by the
Republican members of that body.
John Sharp Williams, the Demo-
cratic floor leader, on one occasion
appealed for thirty Republicans to
join the Democrats so that the rec
ignition of Speaker Cannon might
be forced and thus bring a reform
measure before the house. He ap-
pealed in vain. Not one Republi-
can, not even Burton L. French,
dared incur the Speakers displea-
sure by JOINING the Democrats. II
was not a question of the country S
good but of party regularity with
them. Aud James S. Sherman. the
Republican candidate for vice pres
ident, as chairman of the house
committee on rules, was Speaker
Cannon's right hand man in throt-
Ting reform legislation. He is
the man the Republicans desire to
see presiding officer of the Senate.
With Sherman occupying that posi-
ton and Cannon as speaker of the
house reform measures would stand
as little show of being passed as
they have at any previous session
of Republican Congress. Voters
of Idaho must see to it that men
are sent TO both branches of Con-
gress who will be something more
than puppets whose movements

The Republican County Conven-
tion displayed one ray of human
intelligence when it endorsed the
candidacy of Mrs. Lille B. Wertz,
the Democratic nominee for coun-
ty school superintendent. This is a
personal tribute to Mrs. Wertz
as we'll as to the efficient and
uniform courtesy with which she
has performed the duties of her Of
flee during the last six years. Even
had the Republican convention
made a nomination for this inn
portant office, it is safe to say that
the voters of Elmore county woulu
have cast their ballots almost unan-
imously for Mrs. Wertz.
