eighth day OF next November.
We have a strong state organ
zatiOn headed by good able men
and many of the counties are
well organized hut in our own
county Lafayette we seem to
be in "a drowsy eomatoSe state
lulled to sleep by the siren song
of revenue from saloon license.
Can we not arouse from our
stupor and look upon that aw-
ful scene as it flashes before our
eyes Of want, poverty, misery
degradation and crime brought
about by the liquor traffic which
We have licensed in our own
midst. VIII we sit idly by and
view this awful destruction of
human souls and console our
selves with the thought that we
have not given our CONSENT ST.
lence often becomes criminal
when we see the great danger
looking in the path of the
saloon it becomes u duty to
give the alagm.

sword come and blow not

pie be not warned if the

s%erpent-like sting of the

young and rising generations Of
the awful dangers that await
them along the pathway of in
temperance? But men say,
IF | take an active part in the
cause of temperance it will
hart me in business or in poll
ties or both" This we are
forced to admit is true to. a
certain extent as we have been
misrepresented, prosecuted, snub-
bed and had men turn their backs
and refuse to treat us with COM I
mon courtesy simply because we ]
dared to declare in favor of
temperance; but again we take
consolation from that passage {
of scripture which says WHO Y

OAY OF REST AND PLEASURE
Fiiipinos Of Both Sexes Make Sunday
Time Of Enjoyment-The
Market Women.

II is the women who market the
produce. Early each morning long
lines OF these farmer wives, with great
cigars in their mouths and large bas-
kets of wares on their heads, can be
seen striding along the narrow trails
toward the capital city where market
Is held, says Manila correspondent
Strong and happy, they wade
through the streams and the mud,
calling out to one another as they go,
and only stopping to get fresh light
for their cigars from some one of
their number or some one whom they
chance to meet. Once at market they
chat, smoke laugh and barter for
hours over few small tomatoes,
some green squash, live chicken,
eggs, fruit, sugar or anything they
happen to have. and toward noon they
struggle home, having had good
visit and sold or exchanged their
wares.
Sunday is the one really strenuous
day for the Filipino. 1t Is the big
market day when people come from
all the surrounding country, and it
Is the time when cock fights are al
lowed. Men spend a good share of
their time during the week in training
their pet roosters, and on Sunday,
early and late they can be seen going
to and from the pit, carrying their
game-cocks under their arms.
Excitement runs high and their Joy.
GUS shouts can be heard for long |
way, Some women attend the fights, |
but most of them do the double duty |
of attending mass and then patroniz- |
ing the market which is just across
the street from the church All day |
Sunday they are active and excitable
but the next day they settle back into
their quiet, uneyentful lives

LABOR DAY.

Labor Day in Mountain Home was
unobseryed except by the closing OF
lubIjy business places such as the
post office, banks and county offices
This day is yearly reminder of
the progress the working classes hay
made in recent years and of the
l4rength of organized labor As one
views the marching of ranks of labor
he naturally contrasts the present
social conditions of the laborer with
what it was years ago when each in
dtvidual stood alone in his endeavor
to better his lot. The experience of
those days Ned to the union of forces
and to that union must be credited
most of the better wages, shorter
hours of labor and other advantages
now enjoyed by the working classes.
Unionism has not always been wisely
conducted but in spite of many mis-
takes it has proved benefit to the
masses.
So long as class distinction based
on wealth and accident of birth con-
tinue the ideal. elation between man
and man will never be realized. For
a man because he lis wealthy to look
down upon the poor man who tolls
with his hands, or for the poor man
to harbor resentment against the
man who by honest efforts and abih-
ty has amassed afortune, is all wron
The ideal social relations will come
when falls class distinction are oblt
Grated and the one difference be-
tween man and man be personal
worth This condition today is more
nearly approached In the rural dis
tricts and small cities than in great
populous centers where artificial dis
tinctions are SO numerous.

The following article copied from
The Grangeville Globe Shows that
editor Branscombe understands quite
well the man he criticizes. Mr.. Tai

to call him off and have him keep
still or temper his utterances some
what.
The reference made to the magazine
published In Boise might be enlarged
a little to say that just before he
closed up the business he canvassed
a lot of his friends at Blackfoot and
ON Lost river and relieved them of
"a year in advance" and while they
did not care much at not getting
any copies of the expected magazine,
they feel a little chagnnned that he
would use them that way-Blackfoo

Holy DAYS.

Dr. Hale and the late Bishop HUI
tington of New York were fast friends
The latter had been Unitarian an.
his shift caused sensation. Tn
Episcopalians have saints assigned t,
the various days in the year. Whe,
an Episcopalian minister writes a lie.
ter on any day for which there is {;
saint, he always writes the name
the saint at the close of the letter IL

learned all these things quickly, an
began to practise them at once. TIL
first time he had occasion to write
his old friend, DR.. Hale, after joinin

Day" after his signature. A repl
from the doctor came, and after hi
name he had written in a full, roun

COMPLETE THE CAPITOL BUILD
ING.

1t is standing joke the way the
/ work on the capitol building is drag.
ging along From time to time the
vaudeville artists make puns and
5luibs about it and in many ways 1t
contributes TO the gayety of the state
There is widespread conviction all
over Idaho that this building should
be completed as rapidly as possible
There is no use of allowing it to drat
along in this way. OF course it can
not be completed without more funds
and the only way to get sufficient
funds to complete DIT speedily is by a
bond issue, which Is provided in a con-
stitutional amendment to be voted on
In November. What is needed is that
during the progress of the campaign
the subject be agitated by the press
of the state with a view to quicken
ing public sentiment that will back UP

issue to be submitted to the people
for their approval. The press of the
state regardless of party can do niue
to call attention to the importance of
completing the building During the
last meeting of the three press asso-
Citations here a few days ago a partial
canvass showed a very general senti-

purpose mentioned above. Very lit

any section of the state. The peO

public buildings and are anxious to
see them in good condition. The ear
