Troy weekly news. (Troy, Idaho) 1897-1933, 1908-09-11

The Troy News has repeatedly
charged the republican party OF Idaho
with platform reputation. We have
said that the party lied. And these
charges are either true or they are
false. The News has repeatedly pub
lished the last republican platform, and
pointed out the planks that were not
carried out. We have unhesitatingly
condemned every republican in any
manner responsible for this dishonesty,
and demanded their retirement from
the leadership in the state. Yet no
effort has been made to reply. The
matter is treated with contempt, and
utterly ignored. Instead Of standing
for an honest fulfllment Of its platform,
and demanding decent conduct from
its leaders, it goes out Of its way to
endorse their record, and heaps upon
these scoundrels increased power and
greater honors. Not once has the
party reproved any man, nor even
seemed displeased with crime and
criminals. Truitt has been patted on
the back and endorsed. Yet he be-
trayed the people; Hart tore up the
anti-pass bill, and will be returned to
the senate; J. Frank Hunt packed com
mittees and outraged his state, and he
is retained as trusted and honored
leader of the party. We might go on
till we had included almost every re-
publican in the Senate and House and
the record will show that this same
gang is still in control of the republican
party. And honest republicans are
asked to continue these men in powerl
Is it not time to demand an explana-
tion2 Is is not time for honest repub-
licans to wake up?

The Idaho Falls Post says the repub-
lican state ticket, with Boss Brady at
the head, stands for every republican
principle. If so, there is nothing
worth any decent citizens while left Of
republicanism. The party, instead of
standing for principles, stands for false
hood and deceit. 1t is a party OF false
promises and broken pledges. And
what is worst of all, the republican
party Of Idaho, having lied to the
people, lacked the courage to condemn
those of its leaders who brazenly be-
trayed republican platform, and went
back on every principle for which it
stood. By its record, the republican
party Of Idaho today stands for nothing.
1t has not single principle to which
it can appeal to honest men, and did
nothing at the state convention that
can be construed as a guarantee of
faithful performance of duty in the
future. We would like to ask the
Idaho Falls Post to enumerate some of
the principles Of the republican party
OF Idaho of which it is so proud. What
are they7

The republican party in its state
convention uttered not one word in
condemnation of those leaders who,
being elected by the people and en-
trusted to carry out the party platform,
deliberately repudiated every plank and
pledge. But to show where the party
stands, and as evidence OF what the
party thinks of its dishonest leaders,
the convention honored the party liars,
and placed the party completely in
their control. Senator Hepburn went
so far as to lay the blame-all of it
upon the shoulders OF the rank and
file OF the party-the votes-because,
soorsooth, the people had no right to
make any promises or pledges in the
platform. And the man who made
this insulting declaration was unani-
mously endorsed by the republican
state convention. A vote for the re-
publican ticket this fall is vote for
the man who condemned the people
for the dishonesty and treachery of the
republican leaders who did the lying.
1t is an outrageous insult to every man
and woman who, last year, voted the
republican ticket, and it will be resent
ed by every republican with one whit
of honesty in his veins. Men who be-
lieve in free government and honesty
in the administration of public affairs
will not subscribe to any such brazen
sentiment.

Troy Schools.

The News would like to impress
upon the minds of the general public
the fact that the Troy schools are sec

school work is carried on up to the
18th grade. The course Of study, as
outlined for the coming term, is,

Axel OLSON, candidate for probate
Judge on the republican ticket, is de-
veloping great strength in both north
and south Troy precincts. There is
no longer any question about his hav-
ing the Troy delegates when he goes
before the convention. Mr.. OLSEN
has resided in Latah county for years,
and the fact that he is clean morally,
and thoroughly qualified for the place,
ought to have some weight in his favor.

The Hepburn plan of no pledges,
only recommendations by state con-
ventions has the merit of honesty,
while the Brady method Of pledging
reforms and then repudiating the
pledges accomplishes the same result
in dishonest manner. In either
event the people get it in the neck,
says the Boise Citizen, and the Citizen
is right.

Brady will be defeated in Latah
county by a thousand votes. He will
never carry Idaho, and the chances are
the entire state and county ticket will
go down to defeat with the republican
boss. There are some things the
people can't stomach and one Of them
is Brady.

We want platform that will get
around pledging the Legislature to any
law. The above is from a speech by
Senator W. B. Hepburn before the re-
publican state convention. At the
conclusion of Senator Heyburn's adj
dress he was loudly cheered. This
shows where the republican party
stands on platform reputation.

The Moscow Post says that George
Fields has been sick the past week,
but will be able to be out in a few
days. 1t is really too bad that the
poor fellow took matters SO seriously.
There might be some consolation in
the thought that Fields is not the only
member Of the official family that is
on the sick list.
