BOISE CLUB PINCHED

Acting under direction of Mayor
Pence, the steward and porter of the
Boise Commercial Club was arrested
Thursday for selling liquors without
license. The arrest of these men
who were acting in behalf of the
Commercial Club of Boise, will prob
ably bring the club question into the
courts. In the past these clubs have
merely secured government license,
under the theory that only members
of the club secured liquors, and that
the club was not in the liquor bust
ness. AS a consequence clubs have
sprung up all over the state, especial
ly where the saloons were run out.
A nominal membership fee of one dol
lar or such matter is charged which
entitled that person to all the benefits
of the club, which were the privilege
of buying liquors at the club. We are
convinced that the courts will knock
out the clubs. A case recently came
up before the supreme court of the
State of Washington. The court held
that to all interests and purposes the
club was in the liquor business and
would have to take out state and
county and municipal license or go
out of business. The Idaho supreme
court will probably do the same.
Clubs have been organized and oper-
ated solely for the purpose of selling
liquors. There is no reason under
heaven why they should operate with
out paying state and county license
the same as an individual.

new TARIFF BILL ALAW

The new tariff bill has passed both
houses and was signed by President
Taft Thursday. The new bill is a
revision downward, but not so much
so that you would notice it on many
schedules. In fact during the next
four years the democrats will claim
that there was no real revision; the
insurgent republicans will say there
was and the stand pat republicans
will only smile. The Payne bill ought
to make everyone happy. The demo-
Gratis got protection on everything
they wanted protection on and were
not robbed of an issue for the next
The insurgent republicans
were splendidly indicated, as the new
tariff act will prove that they were
right in demanding a revision. The
stand pat republicans were not hurt
at all. Everybody ought to be su-
premely happy.

SUBSTITUTE FOR SALOON

The official temperance publication
of the Episcopal church has a plan
which it earnestly espouses as sub
stitute for the saloon in prohibition
territory. 1t says:
can effectual substitute for the sa-
loon would be public Casinos, sup
ported by public taxation as schools
are, which should be as universally
distributed almost as saloons, open as
long as saloons, and provide a resort
for the men and women of the neigh
borhood where they can meet to read
and to enjoy all the liberty which
is found today in the saloon, except
ing intoxicating liquors, but where
refreshments might be purchased.
These Casinos might be made self
supporting from the sale of refresh
ments."

SENATORS ABANDON TRIP

A press dispatch from Washington
says that the Western senators who
are members of the irrigation commit
tee have about concluded not to un-
dertake the trip which the committee
proposed to take Immediately after
the adjournment of congress and in
all probability the trip will be aban-
doned. 1t was the intention to spend
two months visiting all the govern
ment reclamation projects. Senator
Jones of Washington suggested that
the committee could do better work by
having subcommittee of each sena-
ator investigate irrigation matters in
his own state, and this probably will
be done.
Senator Bora said that it was his
judgment that the real troubles which
needed correction arise here in Wash
ington, either with the department or
with congress for not legislating, and
he said he could see no real benefit
that would accrue from a 2 months
tour of the whole committee.

MUST QUIT STEALING.

Without advertising the fact, some
of the residents of the north side have
formed an organization and employed
an attorney and propose to make it
lively for some one. They state that
some of the people living above them
on the irrigating canal think they own
it and have been systematically taking
more than their share of water, only
they don't put it as mildly as that.
They call it deliberate stealing. They
have been doing a little detective
work and have identified some of the
thieves and when they get their evil
dence in hand they expect to land
some of the culprits behind the bars.
They feel that the man who is hog
enuf to want not only all that belongs
to him, but also that of his neighbor,
is just a little too contemplate to be
longer permitted.-Nampa Leader

BUSINESS. ADMINISTRATIONS

Caldwell has had busine S admins
trations without number and Cald-
well has a business administration at
present. The purpose of a business
administration, if purpose it has at all,
is to first of all conduct the affairs
of the city in a businesslike manner.
The enforcement of the law that we
have is of more Importance than the
enactment of new laws. To conduct
the affairs of the city in businesslike
manner is the particular business of
the mayor and council. Our present
mayor and council are energetic along
some lines but sadly neglectful or in
different along others For instance,
stored away in the archieve of the city
somewhere is the records of the water
works funds. An investigation will
disclose the fact that there is between
100000 and Sl500.00 in that fund. A
casual inquiry will also disclose the
fact that there are outstanding war
rants against that fund drawing seven
per cent interest. A little further in
quiry will disclose the fact that en-
ployes of the city who need the money
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1909-08-07

are compelled to discount their war
rants three per cent or more. 1t has
been three months or more since
GAere was a water works warrant call.
The Tribune would call the present
business administration attention to
these facts
The enforcement of the present laws
are quite as important as the enact
ment of new laws.
Some few days since the administra-
ton started to enforce the fire ordin-
ance of the city. At the first real OPP
position the matter was dropped. We
do not know what the intentions are,
but we do know that this administra-
ton should enforce the laws we have
rather than choke the ordinance book
with new legislation. Energy and ac-
tivity in making laws should be the
handmade of energy and activity in
enforcing them. These things we call
our present business administration
attention to.

The ASSEMBLY" PLAN

The question of an assembly to sug-
gest nominees to be formally nomi-
mated at the primary, still agitates the
public mind There is a disposition
on the part of many to attempt to
show that such an assembly would not
defeat the ends of the direct primary
law. Any man of candor and sense
knows that such an assembly or con-
vention is for the very purpose of de-
feating the intent of the direct pri-
mary law. There is no use in harbor-
ing delusions on this point. Friends
of the assembly may as well admit the
true purpose of their plan. They are
not deceiving any one by their pre-
tensions. The thinking men realize
that the direct primary law is a hum
bug and has fixed upon Idaho an
odious, expensive and undesirable
method of selecting candidates for
state office. The thing to do is to
circumvent the law until it can be re-
pealed. For the temporary good of
the people The Tribune would favor
an assembly. For their permanent
good we hope there may be no as
sembly in order that we may have the
atcual experience of operating under
the law. One genuine experience will
be enough to cause the repeal of this
obnoxious statute. If the direct pri-
mary farce is to be a permanent fix
ture on our statute book we may as
well start to defeat its ends and pre-
pare at once. 1t is certainty that
there will never be more than one
election carried on in the spirit of
the law 1t is simply a matter of
whether or not the direct primary law
is to stay, If it be permanent let us
get next to the assembly at once; if not,
let us stay clear of circumvention. To
rhe Tribune it is a matter of indif-
ference whether the people repeal the
law by legislation or by practice.

Work Miracles.

One of the most remarkable reltg-
ious demonstrations ever witnessed in
this country has been brought to
close in the Roman Catholic church
of st. Jean Baptiste, in East Seventy
sixth street, New York City, Tuesday
night of this week, where in a little
silver case are treasured two small
bones that are believed to be from the
wrist of st. Anne, mother of the Vir
gin Mary. On the first of the novena
remarkable cures were reported.
Among them a woman who is said to
have regained her sight. This and
many reports of similar miracles
caused the little church to be be-
sieged day and night by the lame and
the halt and many pitiable scenes were
witnessed Believing parents carried
to the shrine children who had been
i'll from birth; others brought men
and women so crippled that they could
not walk, and scores of the blind were
led to the altar rail to kiss the little
silver case and frequently utter their
prayers to St. Anne for deliverance
fromtheir physical woes.
The rush of supplicants became so
great that a special detail of police
men formed the crowds into lines and
were always present at the church to
preserve order. Many persons seeking
to be cured came from distant cities,
and hundreds came from adjacent To-
calities.
Now for another psychological guess
from Prof Munsterberg.

THE CLIMAX OF SECTARIAN
POSSIBILITIES

The announcement of Anne Be-
SAINT, high priestess of theosophy, that
Christ is again about to revisit the
earth seems to be rather fair warn
ing that this visitation is now in pro-
cess of arrangement so far as those
are concerned who accept the teach
ings of theosophy Some little relief
from the possibilities of the situation
is experienced through the suggestion
that the reincarnation may be in the
form of a woman-why not the wor-
thy Anne Besant herself? OF course
the Besant prophecy and its prospec-
tive fulfillment will be nothing new.
The visitations of Christ are frequent
to the apostles of those sects that
give themselves over to mysticism and
magic. These periodical Christs make
more work for the police than the
prince of darkness himself does
among a similar number of people.
One of them recently operated on
Puget Sound and several bloody trag-
edies resulted, saying nothiAg of the
households broken up and the living
souls destroyed. Another is in states
prison in Missouri with several vio-
lent deaths to his credit. Others are
outlaws wandering over the land
while a few have died naturally in
bed. While they last though their
practices have not failed to command
disciples and procure for them easy
and voluptuous pathways. One has
recently been evangelizing in Okla
homa. The correspondent states that
after the close of the sermon, the
congregation gather at the altar and
embrace and kiss each other. 1t was
was not necessary to add that now
large crowds are attending the ser
vices, for human nature still per-
meates the race. The special closes
with the following: Gall the young
people near the meeting have been at
tending and going forward to the al
tar and there is much excitement
among the people," No doubt about
it. Nothing else could be expected
If this last Oklahoma development of
religious enthusiasm is to be accepted
as divine dispensation, the problem
of getting the young people to church
has been solved, and the world will
not have to wait long before the mil.
lenium is officially ushered in.
Meantime the police will do well to
keep an eye on Anne and two eyes on
her christ should she decide TO go
ahead with the promised reincarna-
tion.-Lewiston Tribune.
