TO BOISE m 1872

"The Pittsburgh Gilmore rail-
road will in all probability be
running schedule trains into
Boise by January 1, 1912"
The abeve declaration was
made to a representative OF the
Capital News last evening by one
who is known to be indirectly
connected with the present rail
road activities in and around
Salmon City, Lemhi county, al
though he, makes Boise his
headquarters at the present
time. He declares that trains
will be in operation ever the new
road from Armstead to Salmon
City by January1. 1910, and that
as soon as the link of the line is
completed construction work
will be pushed into the west to
take up the task of building to-
wards Boise.
''I know as an absolute fact
that the interests backing the
Pittsburg & Gilmore railroad,
have already completed their
survey from Salmon City to Boise
and have their plans outlined in
every DETAIL" stated the railroad
promoter. Il have been over
the ground along which this new
transcontinal line will run and
know the condition of the cOun-
try. To any one who will take
the trouble to inspect the road
work which is being done be-
ing done between Salmon City
and Armstead, they will readily
appreciate that the kind of a
road the Hill interests is at pres
!, ent constructing is not one gen
orally found on a stub line. On
the contrary, there is no better
piece of engineering or cOnstruc
tion work to be found on any
. road, whether transcOntinental
or not. 1t certainly would never
pay for the Pittsburg & Gilmore
, to expend so much money on
, short branch line. l know posi-
: lively that this is not the case.
5 The new road will eventually
:, come into Boise and should b<
!. here by January l. 1912. Thi'
0 will give two years to construc
e the road into Boise from Salmon
City along a route following tn
Salmon river. There seems t.
n be no good reason, barring de
a lays, why two years is not suffi
s cient time. It's just question
u of money and the hackers of tn
. Pittsburg & Gilmore have tn
a cash to finance this big under
y taking"

Bristow Scores Taft

Senator Bristow, the junior Kansas
United States senator, does not agree
with President Taft's utteranees given
out in his first public expression on the
new tariff at Winona, Minnesota, few
days ago. In an interview Saturday,
Senator Bristow said:
There was nothing especially new in
the presidents speech. 1t Is simply a
repetition of tie argument Of Aldnch
Lodge, Penrose. Smoot and other high
tariff advocates IN the senate. The
president states that the bill is not what
he desired in all its parts and cites the
wooden schedule as one instance In which
the pledges Of the party were not fulfilled.
But in summarizing he declares that it is
the best bill that the Republican party
has ever enacted.
If the president were not burdened
with the tremendous responsibilities and
veluminous duties which go with his great
office, and had had time to look himself
into the detail; Of the alleged tariff revis.
ion. he would certainly not have taken
the view he does. There are other
schedules in which the pledges Of the
party are just as grossly violated as they
are in the wooden schedules
In my judgment, the president is in
error if he expects the agitation for tariff
reforms and the reduction Of excessive
duties on trust controlled articles to stop.
1t will moi stop until the declarations made
by The Republican party in the last
campaign have been honestly and thor
oughly fulfilled
Ever since Taft's nomination the tariff
revisionists have been trying to make
themselves believe that he was not yoked
up with the Cannon-Aldrich high rollers.
but the Winona speech was the last
straw. Awake, ye braves!

We learn from President Taft's speech
at Boston on Tuesday night a great
many things about Senator Aldrich Of
Rhode Island. Mr.. Taft is evidently
very much Of an Aldrich man. Aldrich
hammered out tariff bill much to the
liking OF the manufacturers who have a
monopoly. The trust interests were
pleased with it evidently. 1t gave assur-
ance Of big profits and continued priv
iege Of fleeing the consumers by COM
pelling them to pay bigger prices for the
necessities Of life. Taft pats him on the
back and pronounces him a good fellow
and hopes he will go out before the
people and let them see and hear him.
