The Blackfoot Republican and
Mackay Miner. both Republican
papers, are having a word war
over Hon. Jas. HI. Brady, who is
out for governor of Idaho on the
Republican ticket. This fight
between Byrd and Dillingham; is
rather amusing. Byrd claims
that he made Dillingham; what
he is, and Dillingham; claims that
he made Byrd what he is, so the
merry fight goes on. 1t all start.
ed over an attack made by Byrd
on Mr.. Brady, claiming him to
a trickster, etc. Perhaps Mr..
Brady has not opened the sack
Byrd yet. We do not know Mr..
Brady, but in a business way he
has been prompt and honest, with
us in this matter. We are in nc
way under obligations to Mr..
Brady, and would not vote fol

A few months ago Teddy, or
dered, without any authority,
that I'm God We Trust" be
taken off gold and silver coins.
Last week Congress with ouly
five opposing votes, ordered that
I'm God We Trust" be placed on
gold and silver COINS, thereby
giving Teddy slap.

The outlook seems quite fair
for the long expected split in
the Republican party. This
thing has been impending ever
since President Roosevelt took
the helm and began on the policy
of regeneration and reform that
was not at all to the liking of
many of the long established
leaders of the party. Radical as
some of the preachings OF the
Democratic party seemed in
1896, they were radical simply
because they were honest and
meant what has since come to
be known as the square deal"
and is accepted as a Roosevelt,
if not a Republican principle.
President Roosevelt wanted
more of the square deal and more
regeneration and honesty and to
get them he had to appropriate
doctrines that had long been ten
cts of the Democratic party. His
search for honesty was rash and
even headlong considering the
practices and training of many
of the leaders he had to deal
with, and there has arisen a
schism in the party that promis-
es to grow more pronounced.
The split is primarily in Ohio,
and the charge has been made
that the President has used fed.
eral patronage in that State tC
further the candidacy of Secre-
tary Taft. Perhaps he has tc
some extent, Perhaps he has
not done so in nearly such pro
nounced fashion as many of his
Republican enemies and Repub-
lican predecessors. What the
exact facts are, it is hardly worth
while discussing, The one fact
remaining is that Senator For.
aker arose in the Senate this
week and attacked the President
violently, charging him with inn
proper political methods. Such
a charge was entertaining, com
ing from the senior Senator Of
Ohio. But it was cheered, show
ing the temper of the Senate
where President Roosevelt is
concerned. A split of the Pres
ident and the Senate at this
juncture means certainly a halv
ing split of the party. 1t is ;
cheerful thing to contemplate
for the present minority, anC
there is little doubt if the Demo
cratic party will get togethe
and stay together they will have
much more than q fighting
chance of carrying the next nat
ional election.

The human mind is so consti-

The racing game is such that it

An average of this many men

Organized and Opened

Lafayette, La.

We have succeeded in securing the
services of Mr.. John 1. Hulse, now q
train dispatcher at Beaumont, Texas,
on the Sante Fe Railroad, to conduct
the School of Telegraphy, devoting
his entire time to this work, which will
begin December l. 1907.
The eight hour law, which will go
into effect January l, will require three
telegraph operators for all positions
where only two are now sufficient.
Therefore the demand for operators
will be greatly increased. For several
years to come no telegraph operators
will ever be out of q job unless he
strikes.
Write to us about entering; also get

We have a large brick main building
and two large brick dormitories, one

Must Pay Fo- Newspapers.

The following is a synopsis of the
United States supreme court decision
regarding delinquent subscribers. 1t is
copied from an exchange and will prove
interesting:
/. Subscribers who do not give ex-
press notice to the contrary are consid-
cred as wishing to renew their sub
scriptons.
2. If subscribers order the discontin-
uance Of their periodicals the publisher
may continue to send them until all
arrears are paid
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their periodicals from the post
office they are responsible until after
they have settled their bills and ordered
their paper discontinued
4. If subscribers move to other places
without informing the publisher and
papers are sent to the former address,
subscribers are held responsible.
5. The courts have decided that re-
fusing to take periodicals from the
office, or removing and leaving them
uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of
intentional fraud.
6. If subscribers pay in advance they
are bound to give notice az the end of
the time if they do not want to continue
taking it, otherwise the publisher is au-
thorized to send it, and the subscribers
will be responsible until an express
notice with payment for all arrears is
sent to the publisher.
