principles of democracy. On the
other hand, if you believe that the

MONETARY COMMISSION.

While abroad the members of the sub
committee of the American Monetary
Commission devoted their first atten-
ton to the United Kingdom. They con-
cIuded their work there at the close of
last week. During their stay in London
they had long conferences with leading
English financiers and collected great
mass of information about the British
monetary system. The members of the
subcommittee, Senator Daniel and Rep
resentative Vreeland and Overstreet,
went from London to Paris to study
the operation of the French system,
and while there they had conferences
with bankers of the first consequence
of the republic. Chairman Aldrich
went on holiday trip to the continent
Senator Hale and Representative Bur-
ton sailed for home. The former, who
arrived yesterday, intending to take
part in the campaign in his state in
September, said that he expected the
commission to be at work year or
more, and that the work thus far done
has been purely of primary nature
(BRADsTREET's.)
From the above the taxpayers of this
country will know that the sub-commit-
tee have had "a corking time" Gas Ros-
sevelt would say during their summer
vacation taking in the sights and
enjoying the pleasures incident to a
trip to London and Paris at the expense
of our government "Jones, he pays
the freight" AS the commission ex
poets to 'be at work for year or
more" we can expect the freight bills"
to continue accommodating with much
regularity.
The farce of keeping up a monetary
commission and paying it's expensive
bills has become monotonous, as the
only result will be to fasten more Sc
curely upon this country a monetary
system that is detrimental to the best
interests of the people and destructive
to the silver mining industry. A sys-
tenn proposed by money sharks and
bankers, based on the law of "heads
win and tails, you lose" Ye Gods and
little fishes will the people never quit
snoring and wake up.

officers elected were ] E. Masters, Pres.
j. E. Dickens, First Vice Pres, Thos.
D. Fry. Second Vice Pres. M. N Fegtly,
Sec. and Treas. The Secretary was in

After appointing the necessary COM
mittees, the club adjourned to meet next
Saturday evening at the Court room when
rousing meeting will be held.
The following preamble states the aims
and objects Of the organization:
"We, whose names are hereunto sub
scribed, believing in and favoring these
democratic propositions:
TARIFF REVISION by representatives of
the consumers of the product, and not by
the agents of those who make exorbitant
profits by manufacture and sale of highly
protected products;
ELECTION OF UNITED STATES SENATORS
by popular vote, thus breaking up the
senatorial oligarchy headed by Standard
Oil, which is strong enough to resist all
measures offered in behalf of the public
welfare;
GUARANTEE OF ALL NATIONAL BANK De-
POSTS, thereby preventing all money
panics by giving all people absolute con
fidence in ALL banks;
DESTRUCTION OF PRIVATE MONOPOLY and
the enforcement Of law against trusts by
the people who are oppressed by the
trusts, and not by the agents of the trusts;
PUBLICITY OF CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS
before election day, so that people may
know who is paying the expenses of the
candidates, and why paying;
ADOPTION OF AN INCOME TAX, because
it is just, and under it wealth may bear
its proportionate share of the burdens of
the Federal Governments
THE PUNISHMENT of men who manipu-
late railroad stocks and ownership; the
encouragement of railroad construction
upon business-like basis and railroad
operation with fair returns in wages and
profits to workers and owners on honest
valuation and honest labor, but not on
watered stock and false bond issues;
That every legitimate means should be
taken for the adjustment of disputes be-
tween corporate employers and employees;
so that justice may be done to those who
toll, in conformity with the so-called
Labor Plank as contained in the De-
mocratic National Platforms and believ-
ing in and favoring the enactment into
law Of numbers of other planks contained
in the said national platform, as well as
those enumerated above; and firmly be-
lieving that in the event of the election
to the office of President of the United
States of that illustrious leader, WILLIAM
JENNINGS BRYAN, he will exert his utmost
efforts to bring about such legislation,
hereby agree to associate ourselves to-
gether for the purpose of forming BRYAN
AND kern CLUB with the object in view
of putting forth our every effort toward
the election of the Democratic presidential
electors.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER IS, 1908.
DIRECT PRIMARY.

The direct primary is one of the
reform measures that has come to
stay, and is demanded by the peo-
pie regardless of party affiliations.
Any party that opposes a measure
of this kind is retrograding and can
not expect, nor will it receive the
support of the masses. Politics of
to-day are progressive and the
voters will not put up with the old
fogyism advocated by Hepburn and
the platform adopted by the Idaho
republicans. Pledges and promises
are good enough as far as they go,
but what people want is to know
that these pledges are going to be
kept.
The republican state convention
turned down the direct primary
plank, while the republican con-
ventions in some of the counties of
Idaho have come out strongly in
favor of direct primary law. Now
the voters ask which is the true at
titude of the republican party on
this question. The following from
the Statesman of September, 18th
Gays, in part: at must be remem-
bered that thousands of republicans
and many independents who pre-
viously voted the republican ticket
have lost faith in the promises OF
the republican party of Idaho-and
none can blame them in the light
of the state conventions procedure.
But the county conventions can do
great deal toward winning these
hosts hack, if they but indicate
their earnestness of purpose. They
can undo much of the harm
wrought by the state convention il
they exhibit the proper spirit, un-
less, perchance, it be too late; unless
backs have been turned immovably
If so, let the responsibility rest on
those who took the party by the
throat at the state convention"
Senator Heyburn's idea, that the
people must not instruct their po-
litical servants what to do, but can
only in a very modest way ask
them for remedial legislation, is
along the same lines as the old
Hamiltonian doctrine that the up
per classes know best what is good
for the masses and the common
people should not presume to ad
vance any idea pertaining to gov
eminent management or legislation
The time has arrived when tn,
voters must decide whether thii
government is to be ruled by tn,
people or by few autocratic poll
ticians. Ii you believe the people

For dissension in their own party
the republicans and democrats of
Idaho are about even.

HAYDEN REVERSES DANA
Holds He Has No Power to Compel
Attendance of Witnesses.

In granting to G. p. Pierce. for
merly of Rossville druggist who now
has drug store at 115 East Sixth ave-
nue. permit to sell Intoxicating Ii
quors, Probate Judge r. F. Hayden this
morning ruled that he had no authority
to compel the attendance of witnesses
are opposed. The ruling is an all i'm
portant one inasmuch as it has been. an
unsettled question which has confronted
the judges of the probate court in near
ly every county in the state.
Not only this but it reverses a decis-
ion made by Judge A. w. Dana of the
district court about two years ago in
which he held that the probate judge
not only had power to issue attach
ments to compel the attendance Of wit
nesses in cases of this kind but also
power to punish them for contempt Of
court in case they failed to obey the
mandate of the probate court.

Surgeons Operate on Percy Winsted-
He VIII Recover.

Percy O. Winsted was operated on
at Christ's hospital at noon by DIR.
w. F. Bowen and DIR. Otto Kiene, in
the presence of students from the
medical department OF Washburn coll
lege. After thorough examination
had been made the surgeons could
find no evidences of cancerous
growth in the stomach or intestines
and decided that the illness from
which Winsted has been suffering for
the past two years was due to the
reflex effect which the condition Of
his vermiform appendix had upon his
system. The appendix, which was
diseased. was removed and winsted
seemed to rally from the operation in
