NO STRINGS TO US

y
The circulation Of the Miner con-
tinues to grow and the office
continues to meet with the support
Of the republicans OF Shoshone
county.
Committed to the support Of no
individual, seeking neither political
office nor graft, bound by financial
ties TO neither mining corporation
nor to any man, the Miner will
continue, in its humble way, to
disseminate the truths OF republic
canis1n without favor and without
fear.
Free and independent, it can
afford to look on both sides Of every
question and with no attempt to
mould its politics to the views OF
any single man or the dictates OF
any corporation it will in the future,
as it has in the past. stand up fear
lessly and with an unbiased mind
for the welfare Of the city. county
and state.

invitation to the miners and others
who are stranded in the city on Sum-
day.

THE FULL DINNER PAIL


The cost Of living; the great big
stick which the democratic organs
WELD with such gloating during
republican administrations is being
revarnished for daily use once more.
Every time it is used to club the
republicans it falls on the head or
toe Of the valiant wielder, for the
wage Garner Of todae is too we'll
read in political economics. He
knows and appreciates the value Of
the full dinner pail even if it has cost
him 25 cents to fill it and he has a
mortal fear Of that great institution
established during the last free
trade interval-the democratic soup
house.

was elected with Cleveland. That
was ClevelAnd's second and
Stevenson's first administrative ex-
perience; It seems scarcely possible
that It is twenty-four years since
Cleveland and Hendricks defeated
Blaine and Logan and wrested the
power from the republicans for the
firsttime since the war Of the re.
bellion.
Vice presidential nominations,
whether they mean election or not
are but fleeting honors. He has a
clear memory who can recite the
names Of the vice presidents since
that contest. It was Thurman
against Morton, Stevenson against
Reid, Hobart against Sewall, Roose-
welt against Stevenson and Fair
banks aginst Davis.
And yet there was one vice-pres-
idential nomination which meant a
lot to the American people.

TAFT BOOM GROWS

Things are certainly looking
bright for the candidacy Of William
Fl. Taft and the refusal Of the New
York republican county convention
to endorse Governor Hughes is a
matter OF national interest.
For many months there has been
a feeling extant that the only real
danger Of a party split lay in the
enuorsation OF one Of these two can
didates by the New York county
convention. To be more definite,
the feeling was rather that New
York wolld 60 solid for Hughes
while Taft would receive the lion g
share Of outside support.
Strenuous efforts have been made
repeatedly to stampede New York
for Hughes but the prevalence Of a
strong Taft sentiment becomes
apparent in the failure to make the
Hughes boom assume the proper.
tons desired by the governors
supporters.
Aside from the excitement, bor-
dering on violence, which marked
the proceedings Of the county con-
yention there. is a significance in
the postponement Of definite action
that will be accepted as Of good
promise for the candidacy of Secre-
tary Taft in the empire state. The
promptness with which Senator
Paige's challenge: If there is
another man for heavens sake
name him." was taken up by the
Taft men could hardly have been
expected or the challenge would
not have been uttered.
The Hughes forces have now been
forced to realize that in the New
York county organization they are
numerically weaker than those Of
Taft and that even in his own state
Governor Hughes, despite his
acknowledged qualifications, lacks
that measure Of support which
would be needed to give him a sue
cessful standing in the national con-
vention. The unquestionable Taft
sentiment in New York will be q
material factor in the furtherance
Of his candidacy throughout the
country.

BUILD INDEPENDENT SHELTER

"a brighter day has dawned for
the independent mine owners Of
Montana. An independent smell
ter is to be erected in Helena by
the mineowners Of the state. After
perfecting a temporary organization
January II to be known as the
Montana Mineowners association,
IL leading mineowners raised
500, co.,, and one member, NJ. l..
Hewitt, temporary president Of the
organization, agreed to secure an
additional 100000 within one
week for the erection of the pro-
posed smelter The operators have
also received assurances from form
Ell United States Senator William
A. Clark that he will subscribe to a
large block Of stock and he has
accepted a place on the executive
committee.
The personnel Of the executive
committee, it is pointed out by the
mineowners, il d certain guarantee
that the movement to operate the
mines without in-tbe least relying
upon the American, Smelling and
Refining company to handle the
ores, will be a success. The COM
lnittee consists Of M. L. Hewitt,
chairman; w. G. Conrad, one Of
the most extensive mineowners in
the United States; A. E. Spriggs,
H. L. Frank, former United States
Senator William A. Clark, Ben
jamin r. Philips and f. B. Lin
dcrman.
N. /. Hewitt, temporary chair
man, said:
Montana leads all states in its
mineral output, and the mine
operators are determined not to be
hampered by the arbitrary action
OF the smelling trust. We are
determined to,erect an independent
smelter near Helena. Even though
the American Smelling and Refin-
ing company should, in the face Of
the present movement, decide to
give reasonable rates, there would
even then be far more ore than the
east Helepa plant can possibly
handle. In view Of these condi-
tons. an independent smelter will
certainly be established at once. h
The mineowneys OF Montana
can raise 81 10000 for the estab-
lishmcpt Of the Independent smell
ter by February, at which time our
permanent organization will be
completed"

A FORMIDABLE : CANDIDATE

Il am convinced that an attempt
has been made to play a little
nasty politics by attempting to dis
credit supposedly formidable can
didate for governor by some
political skate having a grapevine
pull with the department OF
Justice"
Thus saith Harry L. Day of
Hercules fame in his natural denial
Of all allegations contained in the
complaint charging him and others
with a series OF frauds, with false
statements, with misrepresentation,
with the making Of certificates for
the purpose Of deceiving and mis-
leading the officers Of the United
States, with falsity, fraudulence and
untruth, all in connection with the
cancellation Of a patent to the
Leonard Mining claim in the
Placer Center mining district of the
Occur d'Alenes.
Mr.. Day has naturally denied all
the statements set forth in the
complaint.
1t would be extremely interest
ing to ascertain just who ever sup
posed that Mr. Day would be a
formidable candidate for Cover.
nor" Have we not already been
assured that Mr.. Day has no aspir-
atoms in this direction? Even If
no statement had been issued by
Mr.. Day to this effect the formid-
Utility Of his candidacy would not
nave been Of such q nature as to
'ause an undue loss Of sleep to the
political skates" Of the Occur
l'Alenes. Mr.. Day and his can
|idacy are about the last features Of
IDAHO politics that would require
iscredit.

ADVANCE IS GENERAL

Many persons in our country who
have complained Of the increased
cost Of the necessaries Of life have
talked and written as if the condi-
ton were peculiar to the United
States and affected us alone. The
fact, as is known to students Of
broader view, is that high prices
have been and are worldwide. In
creased cost here is coincident with
increased cost abroad. II prices had
1 risen in the United States only we.
might blame the Tariff or the trusts
or anything else prominent in the
political discussions with better show
Ut reason, but since the foreign suf
fers with the American consumer it
ought TO be clear that the things
most dwelt upon here as underlying
causes Of greater cost are not the
responsible. ones.
A deputy speaking in the German
Reichetag recently on the increase
in the, cost Of living in Berlin, said
that u amounted to 80 1-3 per cent. |

price IS high or low in one country
it is the same in another and all.
There is the important difference

greater than that Of the peoples OF
other nations.

The rise of water which was re-
ported along the upper l>ennebec
reached Augusta Saturday anu was a
welcome change to the industries on
the kennebec dam. The water in the
river was raised several inches, and
Yesterday in addition to the Edwards
mills both the mill of the Cushnoc
Paper Co. and the power station OF the
kennebec Light & Heat Co. were run
ming bv water, which was something
that had not occurred for three weeks
or more. The wheels of the three
plants only drew the water down ABOUT
two inches yesterday. whereas the mills
alone last Friday drew it down~nlne
inches. The water was running over
the fasbboards yesterday and 1t Is eX-
pecte5 that the rise will last for 4-ev-
eral days It is understood that the
rise of water in the lower river IS due
to the fact that there were two anc

FINE ADDRESS.
Rev. Samuel A. Eliot, D. D., Speaks al
Vesper Services.

Rev. Samuel A. Eliot, d. D., presi-
dent Of the National Unitarian Asso-
citation, was the speaker, Monday even
ing, at the fourth Vesper service in
the series which is being held at the
lightful speaker, and the large au-
dience was much pleased.
The speaker said that the power of
Jesus Christ arose not from argument,
but because he was able to arouse the
religious imagination in men. The
poetry Of the common heart is irradi-
cable in your heart and mine" Asking
the question to what success in bust
ness is due, the speaker replied that
it was 20 intelligent foresight.
THE greatest scientists were not the
men of rule and line, but those who
were able to look forward into the
future.
1--WE are right on the line of the
Divine workings when we yield tc
Sentiments / have often thought
that the best things in religion are eX-
pressed best in music Our hopes, our
aspirations, these express themselves
in song. K choir could never sing the
SO articles. Such things are not
'singable.' But they can sing the
psalms and the lyric utterances o1
Jesus.
Reason has got to be raised on the
shoulders of some deep emotion before
it can enlighten humanity. Cannot we
trust ourselves more to the wings OF
the spirit?
What we have to fear is the loss
of the imagination. Religion has got
to give us something for the heart to
love and for the soul to reverence
The Vesper service next Monday
evening will be addressed by Rev
Charles Z. Park
