words where words are not needed.
Judge Ailshie storm of applause) has
made record on the supreme bench of
the state that has but few parallels and
no superior in any state in the union

more elexuent than mine and that
tongue demands his nomination at your
hands (applause).
Six years ago had the honor of pre-
senting his name for the same office to
the most memorable convention that
ever assembled in this state. In the
boldness of knowledge for | had the
good fortune to be associated with him
at the bar of Idaho county-I told that
convention that James F. Ailshie was a
modest. unasuming, Christian gentle
man; lawyer of superior ability, re-
spected and loved by his associates at
the bar and by all who knew him; a
student of untiring application and ir
repressible energy. His record on the
bench during the past six years mas
more than justified every word then
uttered in his behalf Fearless in de-
claring the law, clear, terse and per-
spicious in its statement; while on the
bench he knows neither friend nor foe,
neither rich nor poor, but holds an even
balance between all litigants; respected
for his learning and ability by his as
sociates at the bench and by the whole
bar of the state, because of his pure,
and upright life; with
him there is no Glamour, no boasting
because of duty done; indeed, he looks
upon it as the duty of every man to
give the full measure of his abilities to
whatever position he may hold, whether
that position be high or low.
Six years ago he belonged to Idaho
county, he now belongs to the state of
Idaho. His nomination at your hands

TWO DAYS TOO LATE.
''Fruitless" Trip by Party to the
Ha9erman Valley.

Several parties is Shoshone had been
keeping an eye on the Hagerman valley
orchards with the intention of securing
years supply of fruit by making a
single "trip. And they had kept in close
touch with different fruit men in the
valley. expecting to start on the first
intimation of abundance of ripe fruit.
On Sunday morning G. W. Stoner
hitched up his two big freight teams to
the lead and trail wagons which carry
from 5000 to 10, 600 pounds at load,
and with Zell Truman as companion
and A. w. Goodding with team and
light wagon as assistant, they started
for the famous valley. But they had
lost tab on one thing the weather.
The warm, balmy days of early Septem-
Der had ripened the Elbertas all in a
bunch and the supply was entirely eX-
hausted before they reached the valley
The early Crawfords We're long since
gone and the late Crawfords were still
green. After contracting for lot of
late Crawfords and loading up on such
varieties of fruit as We're still on hand
the party struck the homeward trail
and reached Shoshone about the middle
of Tuesday night The next morning
as he was unloading. Mr. Stoner was
heard to make the facetious remark
that if person wanted a load of fruit
from the Hagerman valley he should go

HORSES LOOSE ON STREETS.
May Get Owners Into Trouble fol
 Damage They Cause.

A man who turns a horse loose on the streets at this time of the year is looking for trouble, and he ought to get lots of it. A horse can do more damage to garden truck in half an hour than the animal is worth, and yet aggrieved parties are sup posed to shut their eyes 70 such things and not pretend that they know who owns the plug. Wonder what would the owner of stray horse say in case a COW CT horse belonging to somebody else got into his store, chewed up a lot of his stock and left the balance of it good for nothing? Of course there is a law to protect sufferers from such treatment. but doesn't it seem rather tough to think that people must re- sort to the courts to protect them selves from loss and trouble on ac- count of the conduct of neighbors who wouldn't wrong man out of a copper in purely business trans action, but think nothing of keeping you on the anxious seat right along on other matters.

SEVEN LOADED CARS
Warren Bros Brought Equip weni 10 Town 10 Pave Streets.

Seven cars loaded with parapher- nalia for the Warren Bros. who are going to pave certain streets here. ar rived in town to-day. Owing to the number of unemployed men about town, this would seem somewhat alarming were it not for the fact that the company intends to employ all local labor, instead of bringing men here from out of town. This shows a good spirit and demonstrates, too, that just as soon as the people make fuss about giving all the la Dor of the city to gangs from out of town contractors who want to do business with us will be glad to get the jobs themselves and hire their help in Waterbury.
 The city cannot afford to follow the old plan of taking money from the taxpayers and handing 1t over to strangers much longer. The law at best was vicious and the reason it has been allowed to go unchanged was due to the fact that Waterbury laborers have not been pressed for want of work in many years. It took a dull season to open peoples eyes to what was going on at their own doors.

CROSsWALKS NEEDED.
Ridge Street in Bad Way, Especially
 Near Merriman School.

Some day when the crosswalk committee is having an outing it should visit Ridge street and see how many crossings are needed in that street. It is rather strange that there is not crossing at the Merri- man school, where hundreds of chill dren cross and recross the street sev- eral times day, year in and year out Two crossings should be laid on that street at Bergin street, two farther north at Martin street, and a couple more still farther north at Pleasant street. One crosswalk was laid this spring on Pleasant stret in the west line of Pemberton street. That's all right. but another is need ed in the east line. Who's to blame for this condition of affairs? I think I hear a chorus of voices ask. Oh, never mind about that; the people who tramp these streets every day in the year are more to blame than others; but the question now is to get the walks laid this year before the bad weather sets in. IL is prop erly within the duty of the commit tee on crosswalks to give this matter the attention it ought to have.

WHAT OF THE FUTURE.

Taft represents the trust aud mon
ey interests OF the country and when
he is inaugurated president he will
be the chief executive OF a national
combination Of wealth. He is a free
and easy liver and relishes the juice
Of tho grape; has no religious
convictions; Ii liberal and broad
minded; Just such man as the
trust magnates and millionaires wish
20 sos in the White House. They
have nothing to fear from Taft and
In this respect. from q business point
Of view, the country win enjoy o
greater prosperity for a period OF
time than 1t would have under q
Bryan administration with the OPP
position OF the trusts and their ef-
forts to dlscredlt the same. These
conditions may be temporary. or they
may continue for several years; but
there Ii basic principle underlying
them on which the permanency Of
our form Of government stands.
The republican party Ia the party
Of concentrated wealth and a close
Capitalization Of government; DEM
ocraey stands for a representative
government close to the people; So
eialism represents the other extreme
Of two little government for perman-
ency. Between these two stones
democracy Is being ground. and IL Il
continues without change and an
awakening OF the people within the
next eight years the struggle may be
between the republicans and social
ists.
There II reason 10 believe that the
result Of the election may place the
socialists In q position to become the
chief opponents OF the republican
party within the next decade. The
state elections two years hence will
determine the position OF the three
parties In the presidential campaign
two years after, and during the In
teryal there may be a strong align.
