|strong man until he has specialized.
|The men and women who are sue
ceeddng are the people who have
mastered some things; they are in
great demand. 1t Is far better to lave
a mastery OF one book. than to
have smattering of dozen. 1t Is

that he master one thing.
The reason we become students is
for the discipline-mental training.

Forfeited PLEDGES.

1t has ever been the province of the republican par
ty to carry out the will of the people In the north
ern and progressive states the republican party has
been III. power most of the time since 1860, by
promptly espousng the reforms demanded by the
best thought of the time It's platforms have been
clean cut with no double doubtful meaning When
given the confidence of the electorate upon any prop
osltlon 1t has been the proud boast of the republican
party that it carried out its platform pledges This
has been true in Idaho as we'll as in other states
until the last election 1t must be admitted with a
blush of shame that when given power upon definite
platform pledges to carry out certain reforms in
this state the republican party ignored its pledges to
the people. Not many men it is true proved un-
faithful to the trust reposed in them, but little
coterie headed by Jno. W. Hart, baked all remedial
legislation and now the whole party has to suffer
for it.
This condition of affairs has given our democratic
friends considerable encouragement and they are
holding little meetings and conferences and telling
each other how they win this fall If the re-
publican leaders do not look the situation fairly in
the face and govern themselves accordingly there is

The sheepmen seem to think the forest reserves
should be administered solely in their interests.
They seem to demand the right to regular the de-
tails of the administering of the law.
Notwithstanding their disclaimers they have
created the impression in the minds of many ranch
ers, miners and prospectors that they are opposed
to the broad policy of forest protection.
If the people of the Northwest opposed to the
leasing by the Government of public lands for grazing
purposes and in favor of forest protection they
should address themselves to the correction of abu
and mistakes growing out of the administration of
the reserves by incompetent unworthy agents of
the service. Some department of the Government
must be given the power and authority to carry out
the policy of forest reserves That is the manner of
carrying on our complex Governmental affairs. We
recall how utterly wretched and inadequate the
mail facilities were throughout the Northwest dur
ing the first administration of President Cleveland
and this service under the direction of the Sec
ond Assistant Postmaster General 1t would have
been futile to move the adjustment of the postofce
department. and substitute therefor the distribution
of the mail by private individuals.
The mistakes of the department., responsible for
mail facilities pointed out, and the
sary changes made which gave adequate and sat-
iSfactory accommodation
Our greatest material development depends the
proper protection of each and every of diff
ferent industries.
The most unfortunate thing will be the attempt of
any industry to ask every privilege for itself,
regardless of the effect other and equally deserv
ing and important industries.

Preserving the Forests.

The American Farmer like all good Americans,
favors the Governments policy III preserving the
forests. That paper says:

Nature century to make The fa-
temple of Diana at Ephesus costing untold
millions and one of the wonders of the world, was

During mans life only saplings can be grown to

been destroyed. 1t took than three thousand
years to make some of the trees in the western
woods and to build up the noble primeval forests

ests from the fools and the frauds Strength to his
hand-Troy News.
Judging from the utterances of the Idaho press
and from individuals, few opposed to the forest
reserve policy, and few in favor of including
within forest reserves large areas of non-timbered
lands Much less the people of the west in favor
of allowing the Government, through forest reserve
officials to lease public lands for grazing purposes
This being the situation the controversy really
turns on the administration of the forest reserves by
the officials of the forestry department.
By an act of Congress no more lands can be added
to forest reserves in Idaho without the approval
of the Idaho delegation in Congress-
This provision of law precludes the addition of
any non-timbered and essentially grazing, dry farm
ing or agricultural lands within the reserves, and
judging from the past it is not to be assumed that
the western representatives in Congress will consent
to the enactment of legislation which will allow the
Government to lease the public lands.
