Must Garry Out Pledges.

nv all means the majority mem
hers of the next legislature should
redeem each and every pledge the
party made to the people.
Those pledges should be viewed by
the republican legislators the same
as trusted employe considers in
structions from lis employer when
he has given his personal promise to
fulfilI them. In the minds OF the
people chief among these pledges are
the local option law, direct primary
law and the reelection OF Senator
Heyburn. All important, all de-
manded, all pledged, and all expect
ed. Consistency and fair dealing can
be maintained only by the fulfilling
of the party's pledges, and the carry
ing out of any one OF them need not
be antagonistic to the accomplish
ment of any other If all the leaders
of the republican party in this state
are united 10 their opinion that the
pledges should be redeemed. -Payette

Senator Robert W. Mcbride, Of
Salmon City, who is much Interested
in the construction of an electric
,oad between Salmon City and this
nolnt is expected here within the
next few days in the interest OF that

THE TARIFF FARCE.

The tariff hearings by the ways
and means committee at Washington
have progressed far enough to justify
the North Americans view that they
are dishonest pretension. Cannon,
Payne Dalzell, Fordney and the, 9TH
ers of the inner circle of the re-
dictionaries are deceiving no one In
their effort to make farce and a
falsity of the pledge for scientific and
equitable tariff revision upon which
Taft stood and the national ticket
was elected.
Cannon proclaims himself a tariff
revislonist. He does so In these
words; IF live, l am going, so
far as my vote is concerned to see to
it that the policy Of the republican
party on this question is written in
the national laws as promptly as pos
sible. The laws should be written
promptly, so that business can adjust
itself to changed conditions, for the
change will OF necessity bring dis
tnrbance.n
Which means that an evasive and
deceptive hodge, podge is to be rushed
through to passage, without regard
to the needs of the consuming public
or the legitimate business interests
| il Cannon preserves his old-time
power to "see to 1t" in behalf of the
trusts.
1t Is to be called the Payne bill We
hear. And the Rodfathership Of Sc
reno C, Payne is sufficient surety
that the product will be freak and
changeline.
But Mr.. Payne comes forward and
with his hand on his heart proclaims
himself much misunderstood man
who is sincerely convinced that sub
stantial concessions must be made TO
the demands for just revision ex.
pressed in the Chicago platform and
approved by the people at the polls,
Aud to prove his sincerity Chair.
man Payne suggests that a lower
DUTY ON electric carbon may be adviS-
able, and perhaps slight reduction
on automobiles,
Mr., DaAell's opinion about "drled
eggs and "baUytes" have not yet
been made public, But we shall not
be surprised IL that ardent Cannonite
sets forth that he Is In sympathy
with the coming administration anC
true tariff improvements by advoca
ting revision CT those schedules oil
others of equal Importance.
All such utterances by the Cannon
clique in charge OF the present hear
ingS are mere springs to catch
: woodcock. They prove nothing ex
cept that Taft has frightened them.
Those hearings are no honest hear
ings. The manner in which they ar,
conducted proves that the Payn,

1t seems TO be the business of the

SOME PRINTORIAL JARGON.

An editor may conclude TO take a
days outing, II he feels that he can
afford the time, which Is not often.
Just as he leaves the Office he may
think II necessary to leave the fore
man his final instructions, as he
leaves on the day Of publication.
The instructions may be something
like the following:
'Set the top line In an eighteen
fat, give her head new pair OF ears,
be careful Of the date and number.
When you come to the makeup, scare
the old maids with an inverted pyra-
mid, slug the fool and his money,
give the preacher aud his mission a

flush, drop. In making up the forms
be careful now you handle her. When
you come to lookup you will find the

fore you 90 to press.
After you are through running,

rural schoomaster stand, put the
fool and his money on the battery to

sion In the hellbox, throw In the
