MYRrLE HAsrINes SHEA,

The latest report from the Wallace con-
vention shows that Idaho is in need Of
direct primary election law that win eff
fectually do away with boss" rule. The
disgraceful manner in which both the
Twin Falls and Wallace conventions have
been conducted is enough to utterly dis
gust the public with the way political
parties manage their conventions.
'fLet the people rule" is good motto,
so the sooner a primary election law is
put in force in Idaho the better it will be
for all concerned. Whenever political
leaders SO forget their duty to their con-
stituents as to try to rule or ruin a pri-
mary or convention it is time to call a
halt. The leaders in such cases should all
join the Down and out club (for that
is about the only organization left for
them) for they will undoubtedly be con-
demned to future oblivion.
In the mean time the rank and file of
the voters who are for methods of reform
will get together and march on to victory
and support BRYAN & KERN, whom we
belive to be the true champions Of the
people rights, without paying any atten-
ton to the question as to who shall be
the leader of either the republican or
democratic parties in the state Of Idaho,
and regardless of the petty differences of
Haines and Dalton, Dubois and Nugent,
or Norman and Methodist.

the superintendent has had ground graded
for these buildings and work started on
the tunnel, ready for the track and car,
already ordered and soon to be on the
ground. The good summer weather is
being taken advantage of to have the
buildings up and the tunnel well under

THE BANNER.

Since the cleanup, made on the first
instant, the pans and settlers have been
shut down, while the callow tanks are
being raised to nearer the same level, to
prevent the difficulty of discharging the
pulp from these into the pans In the
meantime the battery and concentrators
have been kept running steadily, making
a saving so close that it will be some time
before the remainder of the mill will
probably be started again.
Work is progressing satisfactorily on
the mill level tunnel, now in and timber
ad more than forty feet and in ground
where the power drills, to be installed as
soon as they arrive, viii make more
rapid progress, 1t is expected that the
Emma vein will be reached within sixty
feet of the present face of the tunnel, and
if it proves as rich as it shows on the sur
face, it will be worked by drift to the
north, while the tunnel is being pushed
ahead.
