Leland and StubbS.

The two men who are posing as
Republican candidates for Govern
or Of the state of Kansas are both
we'll known and representative citi'
zsns of the state. Both are wealthy
and both are good citizens. Fol
many years Leland has been very
active in politics, Stubbs for only a
few years. For years Leland has
been recognized as one of the man
ayers of the political ring that has
controlled the Republican party of
the state.
Leland has never been reforner
but has accepted conditions as they
were rather than to bother himself
about their betterment. He per-
mitted evil to exist rather than
fight it. Success in political mani
pulation has been Leland's ambi.
ton. he has not hesltated as to
the means SO the results desired
were reached.
He has a,lled himself with men
in the various communities of the
state who could be relied on to do
his biddlcg and has been quite sue
cessful.
Stubbs has only been active in
politics a few years. He saw the
evils of this machine rule and the
I'M that was being done the
people and started in to do some.
thing for his boss ridden state, that
would be beneficial rather than to
manipulate public affairs for the
benefit of a chosen few. We are
now enjoying many of the fruits of
his efforts in the shape of wholesome
and beneficial laws
His whole efforts have been put
forth for a higher moral condition
In politics. For che correction of
evils that could be reached by legis-,
lation, the enforcement OF all laws,
and the enactment of new and bet
ter ones for the benefit of the state,
regardless of who, so they were
good men, flied the Offices. With
the one it wss only VINO should
fill this office. With the other
the only thought was, is it bet
ter for the state and the people
thereof. These are the two uen,
one of which is to be supported by
the great Republican party of The
state for GoVcrnor. 1T does -eeem
that there should be no hesitation
among right rthinkiEg men es to
which is the most deserving of sup
port; as to which would be the
more likely to carry out the policies
of reform already inaugurateS and
give square deal to every man
whether in The ring or out. We
hope to see a very large vote at the
primary. Every man interested in
good gov rnnent and enforcement
of the laws, ia favor of the interests
of the people Instead of the oerpo-
rations and political rings should be
at the polls August 9Th and vote for
Stubbs. the champion of the sQsare
deal in Kansas.

The politicians, who do not know

spreading the report that there
"ain't going to be no country vote"
on Aug. d. The towns are going 10
do the nominating, in other words,
and the implication of the dissent
nators of this theory is that you
know what that will mean.
This opinion is not the opinion
of local candidates nor of travelling
men. On the contrary, what they
say is that there is going to be an
immense country vote. Many old
timers in politics say that the coun-
try people are not interested, but
are thinking of nothing but their
crops. The fact that for the first
time in their lives they have the
privilege of voting directly their in
dividual sentiments for nominees for
United States Senator, Governor
and all other officers including
county committeeman, does not in
ierest them. The local candidates,
whose business it has been to gel
out over the ground, report just to
the contrary. They say the farm.
ers are deeply interested and mean
to vote, now that every vote counts
one. They say also that while the
countsy people do not congregate
| on street corners when in town and
| discuss politics, it is not because
they are not Interested but because
each man intends to cast his cwn
vote and has his mind made up and
in the case of the great majority
their minds have been made up fol-
months.
On the face of it, it seems a
strange idea that farmers and coun-
try people take no interest in their
political privileges and responsiblli.
ties. The supposition should be
quite the other way, that crops and
farm work can not monopolize their
intellectual interest. When a man
works hard all day in the fields the
natural thing would be for his mind
TO seek refreshment and stimulus in
something else than his farm work.
This is probably the fact.
In any event, the country people
ought to get out in force and make
themselves factor in the govern
ment IF Kansas, and to the extent
of their power, in the government
of the nation. That is what elect
ions, and particularly direct primary
Nominating elections are for. The
theory is that the people would like
TO have vote that counts one for
every Individual and the primary is
given to them for that purpose, by
their own demand on members rep

MOUNTAIN HOME PETITIONS
AGAINST GRAZING POLICIES

"Sheepmen here have received the
petition which has been circulated
at Mountain Home against the
policies of the forestry department
of the government relative to their
management Of the forest reserves,
the grazing policy and particularly
against the Bnrkett bill for fencing
the public domain, The petition
10 signed by some $50 business and
professional men Of Mountain
Home, none of whom are in the
stock raising business.
This is in strong contrast to the
letter written from Mountain Home
and published in the Statesman a
few days ago flom VIII L. Mont
gomery, giving, giving an expires
sion of approval OF the forestry and
grazing policies Of the government.
Stockmen here claim that Mr.
Montgomery is about the only man
in the Mountain Home country
who does give an Endorsement to
these policies"
The above article, which APP
peared in the Capital News of
Boise last week, presumably in
reply to letter from w. T.
Montgomery, Of this place, to
Forest Supervisor Z. Grandjean,
previously published in the
Statesman, SO grossly misrepre-
sents the sentiment OF the bust
ness and professional men of
this city, and of the majority OF
the local stockmen, that we can
not suffer it to pass unchal-
lenged. AS matter of fact,
the petition over which such an
ado is made, was signed by
many for purely personal rea-
sons, without any consideration
of its merits--a common prac-
tice among people who feel no
interest in the subject of the
controversy. AS an evidence of
local public opinion, it is value
less. Furthermore, we assert
that the majority of the local
stockmen are well satisfied with
the administration OF the Forest
Reserve, and give as authority
for this statement the authorized
interviews with the stockmen,

"IDAHO JUSTICE"

A French writer has said that
every mistake in life may be
traced to fear. Whether this
epigram holds good generally,
is perhaps open to question, but
its verify is unquestionable
when it is applied to the Idaho
conspiracy cases. Deep down
in their hearts the majority of
the people of Idaho will admit
that the editor OF the Parma
Herald, Ill IL recent article un-
der the above head, has spoken
the truth, and will be glad that
there is one man in the state
brave enough to say what he
thinks. The article itself is as
follows
ut has been well said that there
is just one thing that Almighty
God doesn't know, and that is,
what jury will do"
And 30 the whole pack of human
hyenas 60 free, and we have only
the miserable tool, Orchard, to pay
the penalty for the taking of that
splendid life, cut down at the
moment of its greatest usefulness.
We played the towards part. The
man who, in the hour of Idaho's
greatest need, had the courage to
compel that murderous band to re.
spect law, could not inspire
enough courage in her citizens to
bring his murderers to justice. 1t
is said that the judicial fairness of
the people of Idaho has been vindi-
Gated by these trials. There was
nothing fair about it, so far as
justice is concerned, Every honest
man in Idaho believed the defend.
ants guilty. The Judge, whose in.
structions, it is believed by many,
freed Hay wood, certainly could not
but believe them guilty Every
man that served through the long
trials on the two julies believed
them guilty. Was IL cowardice
that caused the jury in each case
to vote against its conviction?
On each jury there was one man
in whom, personally, we know
there is no element of cowardice.
In each instance these men voted
guilty" on the first ballot, and
changed their votes only when the
hopelessness of conviction became
certain. Their reasons were the
same-to stop the expense OF an.
other trial. They did not stop to
consider that the great cost to
Idaho was not In dollars and cents,
but in the degradation of her man
hood.
And they went free-free to prey
again upon society; free to desolate
other homes; free to plan other
murders, and te hunt another tool
to carry out their hellish designs;
and still we pirate OF the fairness of
an Idaho juryl
And, meanwhile, in that little
cemetery on the hill overlooking
the rocky walls of the Boise, under
a mound yet wet with the tears of
Idaho's manhood, lies the body of
Frank Steunenberg, Idaho's great
est citizen and first martyr; and on
the monument which will mark
the spot, in grief and humiliation,
Idaho should engrave the word
'unavenged' !"

The removal of MIR. Unruh from
the Tyndall post Office and the
charges made against him are false
in most every particular. First,
Mr.. Unruh is not incompetent. He
served as teacher in the public
schools of Bon Homme county for
six years, was then elected to the
office of Register of Deeds, then
elected County Treasurer and after
this he Became Mayor of Tyndall
and in filling his terms in these vari-
GUS offices he discharged his duties
In all competency and perfect sat-
isfaction to the people. If a per-
son possessing the qualifications to
till these various offices as Unruh
has done il not capable of running
the pos office Mt T'yndall then the
salary nf the Tyn,lall postmaster
should be incr asea four fold. His
being a defnulter is al,o untrue. if

public funds then most postmasters
are defaulters liable to be removed

lished to the world. All this in a
republican form of government.
While the writer is not an admirer
of Mr.. Unruh, [ like to see him
treated as II man shonld be treated
and not removed by his political
enemies and his good name SLAM
.dered and false charges made
against him for the purpose of plac-
ing some one else in the Office more
acceptable to the faction in control
OF the political ring in Bon Homme
county. | hope every fair minded
man will look at Mr.. Unruh's re-
moval from this office the same as
the writer does and when he goes
into the booth that he cast his vote

The Yankton Press & Dakota,

The Yankton Press & Dakotan
criticizes Sen. Kittredge because
in 1902 he favored a grant of land
to a company in Alaska to pro-
mote the building of a railroad
from Fit. Valdes extending 400
miles. The wisdom of giving land
grants for the promotion of rail-
road building into new countries
may be questioned, but it has been
a common practice. When the
Northern Pacific was built a grant
of each alternate section for a dis
lance of twenty miles each side of
its right of way was given. This
was an unreasonable concession,
and one can hardly understand
what our congressman were think
ing of when it was done. But this
is not all. In territorial days this
vast gift of land in Dakota Terri
tory was made exempt from taxa
ton through a system of taxing
the railroads on their gross earn
ings rather than on the valuation
of their property, In the last ter
ritorial legislature, through the ef-
forts of Maj. Dollard of this place.
b. G. Erricson of Elk Point and a
few other patriotic members an at
tempt was made to repeal this un-
just law. Mr.. Crawford was also
a member of that legislature and
what stand did he take? He voted
nd worked to retain the gross
earnings law and it was retained.
Yet the Press & Dakotan, in its
blind loyalty to-the editor of the
paper who aspires to be postmas-
ter at Yankton-has only words of
commentator for Mr.. Crawford.
