suese9tions to Board of Trade

The st. Adams Messenger of Monday
contained the following local news item:
A meeting of men interested in form
ing club, the purpose of which shall be
| 60 discuss prominent local questions, was
held Saturday afternoon at the office of
Fuller g. Smith, secretary of the Board
of Trade, with'the result that commit
tee composed of the Rev. Ralph f. Lowe,
the Hon. III. Charles Royce, Frank L.
Greene, DR.. III. M. Hallock, and s. S.
Watson was appointed to draw up some
plan for the organization of such club.
The above plan looks from here like a
good one and should result in the accom-.
plishment of something tangible along
the lines for which Board of Trade is
organized. We would suggest that equal
ly good results might be realized by
similar action by business men in Nor
risvile. We have we'll organized Board
of Trade in Morrisville, which has done
much good hard work since its organize
ton nearly two years ago. That great
results have not been realized as vet, is
no cause for encouragement. The sue
cessful advertiser is not the Cge who
goes about this branch of his business
systematically, but rather, the one WHO
keeps everlastingly at it. During the
winter months to come is the time for
the Morlisville Board of Trade to pu. in
some good work. If results come next
summer, well and good; if a year from
next summer let's be alive as an organi-
cation to receive the benefits. At the
next meeting of the Board why not APP
point II committee similar to the one at
st. Adams.

Members of the Democratic State
Central Committee. who were In
Boise to attend a meeting OF the Com
mittee for the purpose OF selecting
places and dates for holding the two
State Conventions OF the Party. were
interviewed by The scimitar on the
Mormon question. They were asked
II they were in favor of abandoning
the Mormon issue In Idaho in the
coming campaign. and the following
IL what they had TO say:
u. II. Coulter, Washington Coun-
~: | believe the Mormon question is
the paramount state issue. I am un-
equivocably In favor OF Incorporate
Ing into the state platform to be
adopted at Wallace the plank on that
question adopted at Occur d'Alene
In 1905.
J. +. Dunn, Bonner County: The
Interference OF the Mormon church
with existing laws, and It's obstrue-
tlon to reform legislation, Is a serious
menace to good government within
the State OF Idaho.
G. u, Arney, Ada County: The
test oath Is In our Constitution. The
Democratic party Is on record to en-
act Il into statute and to fix penal
ties for enforcing II. Every Demo-
cratic member OF our state legisla-
ture last winter, and twenty Repub-
liean members, are equally on record
for this, II would be cowardly now
for us 10 abandon this righteous con-
tiict. and there is not a total of 500
Democrats In Idaho today who have
any sort of an Idea that II should be
abandoned. There are $4,000 Re-
publioans in Idaho today who wish
the Republican party had this issue.
Harry l.. Day. Shoshone County:
With all due respect TO whatever
honest difference OF opinion may ex-
LIST on the matter. 1t does not In my
Judgment seem wise to ignore so
prominent an issue and so consplcu-
Gus a plank in former party plat
forms. To do so would amount to
qualification OF an established nosl-
tton for political expedieney of doubt
full value.
A. 7, Ryan. Bingham County. God
hates gutter and do not eovet
such denomination.
J. NJ. WOODBURY.. Ada County:
When the citizens OF Idaho are ready
to eliminate the Constitution OF their
state. then the elimination OF the
antl-Mormon contention as elucidat-
ed In the last platform adopted by the
Democratic party Of the state will re-
celve due consideration.
p. ~. Davis, Ada County; No. Not
until the priestly rule OF the Mormon
church In Idaho IL forever abolished
and all those OF It's members praetic-
ms polygamy are punished and the
evil fully stamped out as eomtem-
plated by oar Constitution.

grasp of the trust more than the

OF paper in various forms. The paper
trust is one of the most grasping of
all the big combinations OF legalized
robbers and Is protected in It's opera
tions by taFlff wall which keeps all
other manufacturers out OF the mar

fact that while prices have advanced
very materially during the past year,
not one cent more has been paid to
the employees of the trust, but the
