The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1909-09-24
WEST AND EAST

The Western statesmen who pre-
dict that the political power of this
country will in another decade be
stripped from the East and transfer
red to the West leave us little in
the dark as to the limits OF their all
powerful West. The old West, the
populous states drained by the Mis-
sissippi and its tributaries and the
Great Lakes, already dominates this
country politically SO far as mere
numbers are concerned The Repub-
lican party has taken nearly all its
Presidential candidates from that
section and the Speaker of the House
Is usually from the same area.
But the new West, which Is so
strenuous and ambitious Of political
power, is beyond the Mississippi and
even beyond the Missouri 1t is a
great and growing section, but its
expansion and prosperity is not at
the expense of the section east OF
it, Both are increasing with the same
Astounding vitality. Unless there has
been a mighty shifting In relative
growth of population in the past few
years it will be some time before the
area east of the Father Of Waters
can be outvoted by the States west
of it. Taking the 1900 census as a
basis it will be found that the popu-.
1ation Of Pennsylvania alone was

enough to people the ten States and
Territories of Washington, Oregon,
California, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming,
New Mexico, Arizona, Oklahoma and
Indian Territory, and still have left
over 100000 men, women and
children, or about enough to replace
all the folks of Arkansas.
Philadelphia contained as many
souls in 1900 as the seven State and
Territories of Nevada, Arizona, Idaho
New Mexico, Utah, Washington and
Wyoming. 1t is perfectly safe pre-
diction to make that since 1900 the
increase in Philadelphia's poulation
has been six times the entire number
of inhabitants of Nevada.
II Is true some of the Western
States are growing rapidly, but so
is the population of the East and
especially in States like Pennsylvania,
New Jersey and New York. Every
year since the last Federal census
was taken nearly as many people
have come into Pennsylvania as lived
in Wyoming In 1900.
Every American is proud OF the
wonderful expansion Of the West.
Eastern people can surely join most
heartily in congratulating the dwell
lers beyond the Mississippi because
the East supplied the pioneers that
made the West possible. But the talk
of sectional discussions is bad all
the way through.
This is one country and whatever
tends even remotely to suggest that
it may not be SO in future is unwise
and altogether harmful. Honest
State rivalries can bring no i'll, but
bitter State jealousies when carried
into the National Congress breed
anew that which was supposed to
have persisted at Appomatox Phil

PRESIDENT SPEAKS 0F INCOME TAX

 iff for revenue only, and would have in. terfered with the protective policy to which the republican party is pledged.
 Corporation Tax Compromise
 ''One further objection to the in come tax amendment was that it had been declared unconstitutional by the supreme court and to invoke second decision upon that issue was to ques- ton the uniformity of the decisions of the supreme court and to drag the court into a political discussion which would not make for it's standing as an impar tial tribunal before the people. IL in dicated diversity of view between congress and the courts--two eo-orii- nate branches with reference to the constiutionality of the law But the income tax amendment seemed quite likely to pass by vote of all the demo erats and sufficient number of repub. lieans. Therefore, those opposed to the income tax amendment looked about for compromise law less objectionable than the income tax amendment, to sat. isfy enough republicans who were in clined to favor the income tax and pre-. vent the passage of that amendment. Such compromise was found in the present corporation tax rnd also the joint resolution proposing m amend ment to the federal constitution author izing the general govenmep, 10 impose an income tax without experiencing it as direct tax, according Co the popu- lation of the states'
 He believed it to be prime fault in the federal constitution that no provi- sion was made for direct levy to meet war time or other extraordinary ex. penses.
 Bond Tax Prevented
 Taft said that the supreme court de- eision declaring unconstitutional the in. come tax passed by democratic con gress some years ago, had prevented the leaders in congress during the session recently closed from including in the corporation tax measure a provision for q !. To tax bonds would result in tine le- duction of the rate of interest, md hence would be direct tax upon nd vidual holders of the bonds.
 The president bases his argument in favor of the corporation tax, as com. pared with the direct income tax, al- most entirely upon the results of the income tax in England.
 English Income Tax
 He pointed out that the tax there is not a direct levy, such as. was recently defeated in the senate only through compromise, but that it laid the tax upon the income before it came into inc hands of the individual, being levied first on the declared dividends of cor porations, secondly OF rents in the hands of the tenants, aud thirdly on the individual directly. It was found in England that direct income tax at l0 per cent would not produce as much revenue as the present method of tax ation at per cent. This, he declared, Illustrated the premium direct tax places upon perjury and coneealment.
 The president received a most enthus. iastie welcome in Denver. Signs were hung at intervals all over the city read. in Welcome to Denverr the Summer Capital. Y
 While here, the president is the house guest of United States Senator Hughes,  democrat He held a public reception of two hours this afternoon at the state capitol.

The Uses OF A College

Whatever critics may say 10 the con-
trary, 1t never was and probably nev.
er will be the purpose OF the standard
college TO train young meE for busi-
ness. Colleges do not ever train
men for professions. There are
professional schools for that pur-
pose. and in the days when NO such
schools existed medicine was taught
in the Offices OF physicians and law in
the Offices of lawyers. Just as business
was and still is taught in places OF
business Colleges were not institu-
ted TO make physicians or lawyers.
Neither were they instituted to train
men for business.
Schools for special training have
multiplied rapidly the world over
Even business schools are not lack
ing although the business school
which shall be in fact a postgraduate
one TO regular academic course has
not yet arrived. Meanwhile the com
mercial college or business school
is doing excellent work There is no
reason why II should not be expanded
as the professional AM technical
schools have been.
Meanwhile let the idealist still
cherish his dream OF a college devo-
ted TO the cultivation OF lofty ethical
standard. the propagation of knowl-
edge, the fostering OF the arts and
the dissemination OF the spirit OF
raternity.-Boston Globe.

Weekly Review of Trade and
Market Reports.

r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review
OF Trade says:
It was hardly to be expected that
the industrial and trade revival
would continue all the time at the
recent high rate of speed. Some
slowing up, IL only for q breathing
spell, was natural, and this appar-
emily is what is occurring, although
1t makes no material impression
upon the great volume of transac-
tions. The unreasonable weather
and the approach of the holiday sea-
son, and the time for settlements
and taking of stock, incident to the
ending of the year. are in considera-
Bile part responsible for the slightly
more quiet aspect of business. The
railroad strike in the Northwest is
an unpleasant development and it's
immediate effects are chiefly felt in
the -four trade.
No uneasiness is felt regarding the
lull now manifest in some branches
of iron and steel, as 1t is recognized
that recovery from past depression
has been phenomenally rapid. More
over, mills and furnaces have enough
orders on their books to assure full
activity for months to come and pro-
ducers generally scan specifications
