the public interest, the aroused public
conscience and the searching public
concern which this remarkable man
bequeathed to his countrymen."
In speaking of Taft's views, he said,
in answer to a question:
Il only know what he said to the
American people when he was a can
didate for the presidency; that he was
in favor of an income tax which could
be drawn to be made constitutional.
l am not willing to believe the presi-
dent believed in drawing an income
tax law applicable to men toiling in
professions and then in exempting the
vast accumulated wealth of this coun-
try from taxation"
1t is said that Senator Borah made
splendid impression; his address
was listened to with wrapt attention;
and he received the warmest congrat-
ulations. 1t is highly gratifying to
The Tribune to learn that Senator
Borah is coming up to the expecta-
lions of his friends. He is already
considered one of the strong men in
the senate. He will make fine rec
ord and reputation for himself, and
reflect credit on Idaho.

COMMISSIONERS TO BOND.

The board of county commissioners
have decided to issue bonds to take
up the warrant Indebtedness Of the
county. We are convinced that this
is the only way out. The warrant in
debtedness amounts to over 100000,
largely incurred by the prosecution Of
Haywood, Meyer and Pettibone. The
county would be years and years in
working out that Indebtedness without
issuing bonds. The bonds can be float
ed at per cent, while the warrants
are bearing seven. An election is not
necessary as no new Indebtedness is
to be incurred. The Tribune is con-
WINGED that the people of the county
will endorse the action of the Board
of Commissioners. They have and are
exhibiting ability of a high order in
the administration of county affairs.
The county will be far better off I'M
der the new arrangement.

BORAH'S ADDRESS.

From newspaper extracts and COM
ments, both in Idaho and abroad, Sem
ator w. E. Borah must have made a
great address in the United States
senate on the income tax. The Tribune
has not had opportunity to read the
address yet, but it evidently stirred
up few of the stand patters. Sena-
tors Lodge and Root of Massachu-
sets and New York, respectively,
took exception to the statements of
the Idaho senator, but they were soon
silenced. The income tax was advo-
Gated as means of wiping out the
deficit in the treasury as we'll as

DEER FLAT CELEBRATION.

An old time celebration, reminis-
cent of the days of NJ B. Gwinn, S.
NJ. Coffin, and the Steunenberg bro
Tiers, will be held in Caldwell June
Sd. There will be public meetings,
barbecues, bon fires, and fire works.
With us will be Secretary Ballinger
of the Interior Department, the state
officials and prominent men from all
over the Northwest. The celebration
is in honor of turning the water into
the distributing canals of the Payette-
Boise reclamation project. The lands
to be eventually reclaimed by this
project aggregate 100000 acres. The
completion and dedication of the south
side part of the project will take place
on the date named. This side en-
braces 100000 acres of the finest land
in the finest climate on earth. 1t is
to be a great day and the significance
of it will be deeply impressed upon all
who attend, by appropriate ceremon-
les. 1t is to be one of Caldwell's old
time celebrations, that will be a reve-
lation to our Jonny- come-latelies. It
will be one of those times where Mos.

WHAT GOOD is THERE IN IT.

The Capital News argues that under
the direct primary law grafters can
be gotten rid of, where discovered. In
speaking of Washington the News
says:
Enemies of direct primary are cit
ing the case of certain Washington Of
ficials who have been guilty of graft
ing as instances of bad nominations
made under direct primary and the
election of men SO nominated.
"The Washington case proves moth
ing. The people may be fooled into
nominating and electing bad men un-
der the direct primary laws just as
they have been under the convention
nominating plan. That is not the idea
at all.
1.-THE difference comes in this: that
the guilty men can be gotten rid of
under the direct primary, which cam
not always be done under the conven-
ton plan where a combination of poll
ticians and grafters is always sue
cessful in retaining control where
conditions are desperate enough to
warrant their doing so regardless of
consequences.
1T is highly probable that had there
been no direct primary law in Wash
ington the grating officials would
have found protection and not only
been retained in Office, but the grating
would have continued. Under the spur
of a direct primary law they have
been forced from Office and an end
has been made to grating"
If the News be correct, why don't
Wisconsin, under it's direct primary
law, get rid of Senator Stephenson?
We would like to have the News ex-
plain the manner, under the direct
primary law, in which grating Off
Gals are gotten rid of in the state
of Washington. One of the star per-
formers there is the State Insurance
Commissioner. The method of pro-
cedure in his case is the same as in
other states, whether they have the
direct primary or not. Shively was
indicted and will be tried for embez-
element. If guilty he will pay the
penalty. That is all there is to it. The
direct primary law has nothing to do
with the case, except that under it he
was nominated and elected to Office
In Illinois, about the same old gang
control under the direct primary, as
would control otherwise. 1t is true
Senator Hopkins was defeated for re-
election but nobody else was elected.
In Wisconsin Senator Heptmann, a
proven corruptionist, was reelected
to the United States senate. In Wash
ington, Schively, known CRATER, was
reelected. Wherein does the direct
primary law do any good? The Tri-
bune argues that it makes the cost
of getting an office so great that only
the rich or the corrupt can afford to
make the campaign. We do not know
that this will be the case in Idaho.
But we do know that the direct pri-
mary law has not purified politics in
any state in the Union. Pennsylva-
mia was one of the pioneers in the di-
rect primary movement. Pennsylva-
mia is and has been for 20 years or

THE SUNDAY SCHOOLS.

Next week the delegates from prac-
tically every Sunday school in Idaho
will meet in Caldwell. 1t goes with
out saying that the convention is most
heartily welcome, and that the people
here will do everything in their power
to make the visit of the delegates
pleasant. The Sunday school is the
most important branch of church
work, because the modern idea, pri-
marily, is teaching Christianity to the
children. The work of teaching reli-
gion in classes or On schools is of very
ancient origin. Ministers of God or
their appointed assistants taught such
schools, where conditions were such,
that the young were not taught in
their own homes. The study of the
Law was obligatory among the Jews;
and the religious schools existed in
connection with the synagogues. How
ever, to Robert Raikes, of Gloucester,
England, is due the credit for the
modern Protestant Sunday school. He
was first led to think of Sunday
schools by seeing a number of chill
dren of wretched appearance in the
suburbs of his home city; and upon
being informed by a resident of the
suburb, to whom he addressed himself,
that, If possible the children present.
ed more wretched appearance on
Sunday, when they were released from
work, and free from school. The idea
naturally presented itself that the
proclamation Of the Sabbath day might
be prevented, by keeping the children
pleasantly occupied He Immediately
engaged number of women, who
taught school in the neighborhood, to
receive and instruct such children as
he should send them on Sunday. He
paid these teachers a shilling for her
days work. His efforts were so sue
cessful that other charitably disposed
persons took up the work in other
parts of the city. In a short while
Sunday schools were established in
all parts of Great Britain. Raikes
made his first experiment in 1881 and
in 1885 it was estimated that there
were 100000 children receiving Sum
day school instructions in Great Bril-
tain. The idea spread from England
to Scotland and then to Ireland, and
later to all parts of the Protestant
world. The Sunday school of today
had its origin in the United States at
Philadelphia, in December, 1890. The
first national convention was held in
New York in October, 1882. and later
the convention met at Philadelphia,
Newark, Indianapolis, and Baltimore.
At the Baltimore meeting in May, 1875,
the convention took on itself the name
international, which it has ever since
borne.
The success of the Sunday school
movement; the fact that all the Pro-
testant churches accept and teach the
same lessons; and in this branch

Do IT AND Do 1T NOW.

The readers of The Tribune in par
ticular, and the people Of Canyon
county generally, know the history,
trials and triumphs of the Canyon
County Fair association. Yet at this
time a resume of its history, an out
line of it's condition, and synopsis of
Its successes may not be misplaced.
As an agricultural, horticultural and
live stock display the fair is the
greatest success in the Northwest. AS
an advertisement of Caldwell and
Canyon county it is the greatest thing
ever attempted. Financially, it is not,
it never has been and it never will be
a profitable enterprise. The associa-
ton was organized eight years ago by
a few of the enterprising and pro-
gressive business men of Caldwell.
The first fair met with such general
approval that it was decided to make
it permanent fixture; and steps were
taken to do so. The association strug-
gled along for a few years, holding
successful but Improbable fairs. In
a moment of relapse from their GUS
tomary vigilance, the business men
permitted the association to fall into
the hands of couple of men, who had
an eye to real estate of the association
as an asset. To get out OF this en-
tanglement cost nearly 100000, which
was dead loss to the association, but
it awakened the people. Consequent
ly steps were Immediately taken to
have bigger and better fair than
ever The old grounds were sold and
new and larger grounds purchased.
New, larger and better buildings were
erected, and today Caldwell has by
far the best equipped fair grounds in
Idaho. However, the association is
in debt, and a part of this indebted
ness must be nquidated at once. The
only means of raising money is by
selling the treasury stock. There are
a great many people in Caldwell who
own no stock at all in the fair; and
there are great many more who do
not own their proportion. AS the in
debtedness must be paid we urge such
persons to call on the secretary and
buy up a little stock. The business
man, the property owner and the far
mer, are all benefited by the fair.
There should not be a man in Caldwell
who does not own a share of stock.
There should be. few who do not own
five shares; and every business man
should hold at least ten shares. To
let the fair die now would be black
eye for Caldwell that would not heal
in 20 years. Everywhere it is &C
knowledged that the Canyon County
Fair is without an equal in the
Northwest. 1t surpasses all county
and many state exhibitions, among the
latter is Idaho's. The maintenance
of the fair is necessary for the entire
county. The Tribune urges every bus
mess man to invest a little in the
fair. The time to do it is now.

work in harmony; leads one to wonder
why the different sects cannot get to-
gether along other lines. The differ
ences in creeds are so infnitesimal,
as to be unworthy of serious consid-
Grafton by earnest Christians. Here
in Caldwell we have seven or eight
denominations, each struggling to
keep up an appearance. They pro-
fess to believe the same things and
each acknowledge that it has no mo-
nopoly on salvation; but that all good
Christians will be saved. Some fine
doctrinal point keeps the churches
apart, with the result that there is no
end of wasted energy and misdirected
endeavor. Five times the good could
be accomplished with half the energy,
If every Christian worked in harmony
with every other Christian. This is
an age of combination and concentra-
ton. The churches should get in line.
They should follow in the steps of the
Sunday school. They should remem-
Der that, that agency, the Sunday
school, is bringing all the children Of
all denominations together, and that
sooner or later all will be together.
Every Christian should do his utmost
to hasten the day, when the Christian
world can present an undivided front
to the enemy. The Sunday school con-
ventions are doing much, and for that
reason, alone, are great benefit.

more one of the rottenest states in
the country. Under the system cor
rupt men get into Office, the same as
they do in states without the direct
primary. In states under the system
the method of getting grafters out of
office is the same as in states with
out the system. Once again we ask,
what good is there in it?
