Going Up Salmon River

"The railroad coming up the
Salmon river from Salmon City
is doing more for the southeast
ern part of the state" said D. w.
Truitt of Challis, yesterday,
than any other one thing" Mr..
Truitt is president of the Salmon
River Land & Irrigation COM
pany, which is considered to be
one of the biggest companies in
the southeastern part of the
state. According to the state
ment of the president great
deal of work is being planned by
the people of the district there
along mining and agricultural
lines.
"Our company, Continued Mr..
Truitt, will be prepared to de-
liver water for 5000 acres this
year. This project is located
within 3 miles of Challis and
comprises some of the best land
in that section of Idaho.
We expect to extend our work
this year SO as to put 5000 more
acres under water for the next
seasons irrigation. This will
mean that we will have 5000 ac-
res on each side of the river and
in the choicest and best country
under the sun.
"The Gilmore & Pittsburp
railroad has secured it's right-o
way within 6 miles of Challis.
This is the extension from Sal.
mon City, and is part of the
branch which will eventually
come to Boise. There seems tc
be great deal of difference O1
opinion as to the probable route
of the road towards the Capital
city. and we are all very much
interested as to what the posi-
tive outcome will be.
There is certainly all kinds
! of activity along every line o1
industry, because of the railroad.
Property values have increased
. SO per cent in the past year and
} in some cases have gone to 1O(
per cent. l read in a paper the
} other day that some of the mer
; in Challis were not very keer
, for railroad, but 1 want to say
the people in Challis who talk
that way are not the progressive
men in the city. They all know
what it means to have transpor
/ tation and want it badly. Boise

THE WORK AT GLEN GARDNER.

o1Ta HE State tuberculosis Sanatorium at Glen Gardner takes only
selected cases. Patients well advanced are rejected. The
report by the board of managers for the last year shows that
during the year 2S7 patients were treated for periods of longer than
one month, and that of these 287 patients so were apparently
cured" while in 112 other cases the disease was ARRESTED" and 10
cases were Improved" 1t is naturally the object of the institu-
tional managers to make the best possible showing, therefore a dis
elimination in the admission of patients in favor of cases that are
most susceptible to cure. Consequently the percentage of cures re
ported is not remarkable. But what record does the institution
keep of patients who have been discharged as cured or as having
the malady arrested or improved? Does the management keep track
of these cases? Are there no relapses and no deaths outside the In
stitutiop? Only one death in the institution is reported. Is there,
when these patients who are sent to their homes to die, no official
cognizance taken of such deaths? The State is under an extraordi-
nary expense for this sanatorium, with its comparatively small
facilities and restricted number of patients! The weekly cost per
patient amounts to about $40 a head, according to the figuring of
the managers, which. excludes the cost of the plant and other similar
expenses that belong to any calculation of per capita cost of main
tenance. The State sanatOrium could be conducted on a much bet
ter plan to greatly enlarge it's sphere of usefulness. There are
hundreds of unfortunates in this State who are entitled to its
benefits. The institution should be conducted on the principle OF the
greatest good to the greatest number.

SATURDAY EVENING. DECEMBER 81. 1910.
THE NEW YEAR

ea HE year 1910 goes out at midnight, when the new year Will be
ushered in. There are always popular manifestations OF
rejoicing at the advent of a new year and the departure OF
the old year, and there are mixed reasons. The poet has said, Hope
springs eternal in the human breast" The old year has Deen REC
II has not brought the frution of human hopes and desires. The new
year remains untried. 1t has vague possibilities. 1t may bring the
realization of cherished hopes. The longlooked-for ship may at
last come in. The troubles experienced in the old year may be
Vanished Sickness NAV disappear and distresses be relieved.
Everybody but the chronic pessimist sees a golden aureole GROWING
the Young year and halls a new dispensation in its train. But as
the years come and 60 they are pretty much all alike in human
xnnenc Some wisdom is learned. Too many lessons are lost
TO as The world gains in knowledge and wisdom slowly, Most
individuals gain little II none at all by experience of the passing
wears. They repeat the same tale that has always been told" But
nevertheless, we may express the hope that the new year Will be
an Improvement upon the old for the American people, individually
and collectively; that the experience of this year will be wisely
utilized and that the year 1911 will be one of peace and prosperity
and general content.

The People s Rostrum,


ganlzation. The doctor must know, AS
every Democrat knows, thai the rsla-
ton of Messrs. Smith and Davis has
been severely strained for a numbe: Of
years previous to the late campaign.
He must know that the uniting of these
two gentlemen meant an agreement TO
place a satisfactory candidate in the
field. He must know it meant an effort
on the part of a united Dem -cracy to
elect him. He must know that it
meant to Davis a fight of unusual bit
terness and violence in his own county
to end unpledged delegates to the
Democratic State convention agaist a
favorite son holding an important
office with the powerful assistance Of
patronage to back up his candidacy.
But how soon is forgotten the terrific
~drubbing received by Wittpenn in his
own city by the Davisites. The Witt
penn crowd shouted boss;sm in their
effort to land him in the governors
chair and are now shouting for the new
born leader in their mad effort to get
on the band-wagon.
Well, what about Davis? Is Davis
expected to reward Smiths loyalty to
Wilson by betraying Smith? Does any
man who pretends to know Davis be-
lieve that Davis would, nay, could, be-
tray or desert anyone? Has there ever
been in the people a suspicion of such
perfdy on his part? Cannot DIR. Will
son understand the circumstances
which preclude a man like Davis from
breaking faith with a mar with whom
he has just smoked the pipe of peace?
And, in fact, if Mr.. Davis is in favor of
the election of Senator Smith, is he
not privileged and entitled to use all
lawful and fair methods to advance his
prospects?
Is not DR.. Wilson attempting to in
timidate the members of the Legisla.
ture into voting for Mr.. MARITIME? And
that is the worst accusation thai is
being made against the Hudson leader
Certain gentlemen, without giving the

Server.
To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
II is not so very long ago that Gov
ernor-elect Wilson permitted such we'll
known and highly regarded Democrats
as Messrs. Katzenbach, Silzer, Hughes,
Hudspeth. MARITIME and others to de-
clare their candidacy for the Demo-
cratic nomination for governor of this
State and quietly witnessed their en-
deavor to corral delegatesefavorable to
Them, all the while knowing of the visit
made to him on behalf of former SEN
ator Smith, of Essex county, and Rob
ert Davis, Of Hudson, who had agreed
to send sufficient unpledged delegates
to the Democratic convention to vote
for and nominate DR.. Wilson. And we
must presume, Mr.. Wilson being a rea-
sonable man, hat he was aware OF
such an agreement. But where the
doctor is concerned it doe not appear
to be a question of open primaries or
party leaders or unpledged delegates.
Why did he remain silent until the
leaders were able to deliver the nomi-
nations? Suppose these unpledSed
delegates were not sufficiently numer-
Gus to nominate DR.. Wilson. Did Smith
and Davis represent the Democracy at
the convention which nominated Will
son? Did the Democracy trust these
men then? Did DIR. Wilson publicly
announce himself a candidate before
the convention? And was he not a
candidate from the first?
Now, wherein does this present sena-
torial situation differ from the position
taken by the Governor-elect before the
Democratic convention was held? Is
there not a deadly parallel, if his pres
ent attitude is tenable?
Then, again, whom does he rally
about him to decry and denounce the
men who named him the candidate
Wittpenn, in Jersey City, who fought
tooth and nail for Wittpenn delegates
Cronin, in Bayonne, who fought fol
Wittpenn delegates and spitefullS
would not make the nomination of DR.
Wilson unanimous after the convention
had chosen that gentleman.
And so the roll could be continued
indefinitely. The men who are now thu
loudest shouters and the most arden
supporters of the Governor-elect ar
the very men who were nursing boomi
in opposition to DR.. Wilson, Ind nov
cunningly take advantage of the situa
ton for their own Interior ends, anC
not for any benefit which may be de
rived by DR.. Wilson, but rather for thu
few morsels they may lick up if th'
fruits of victory shall be dashed from
his hand.
Then, again, it cannot be denied tina
admitting in private conversation tina
MARITIME does not measure UP to tn
senatorial toga, while publicly SINGING
his praises, is, to say the least, Yer,
inconsistent.
To turn our thoughts for a momen
from the Governor-elect. | do no
think that he or anyone else can sue
cessfully condemn the stand taken b;
the leader of the Hudson county or

II DO O SAY2

What Is the most ephemeral
thing in the world?"
The consideration of this ques-
ton, into which we accidentally
tripped and fell, moves us
strangely, for some reason or n
other.
As 1t occurred to us first the
query was what is shortest-lived
or most short-lived thing in the
world?" We understood 1t per-
fectly, but 1t seemed awkward. A
half hours perusal of q couple Of
good dictionaries enabled us to IN
ject a lot of class into the question,
as may be seer by the opening sem
tence.
We should very much like to
get some opinions from original
thinkers in the form of answers to
this query. Nothing would Sd
nearly suffocate us with pleasure
just now as the opportunity to con-
slider a large number of such an
swers; to Gull the more sc~intillating

matter due thought, seem to be of the
opinion that Mr.. Davis Is not entitled
to any preference In the matter and
hould not assert his ripened judgment
in an effort to persuade the legislators
in their choice. Now, anybody can see
that by far the easier course for Mr..
Davis to pursue would be that which
would carry him in the direction DR..
Wilson has indicated, and he would be
hailed by the u%nthinking element of
the people a hero for the present.
Much easier and pleasanter would
that be than to stand with Smith and
encounter the danger of breaking with
the Governor. But this line of conduct
belongs to the shifty type of politi-
clans, who are always found bowling
the supple back to the winner, be he
right or be he wrong. With men of
ton, as will be admitted by all fair
minded men who know him or his
record.
The day will come, and not long
hence, when DIR. Wilson will discover
that the loyalty of Mr.. Davis works in
but one way. And hen the Governor
buckles down to the business of the
State he will have no cause to doubt
the loyalty of Hudson's leader in the
welfare of his party n his State. or
in the consummation of the party
platform formed by responsible Demo-
Gratis from the rostrum. He will find
that there is no stancher friend to him
and his administration than the man
whom he now attacks, not because of
anything he has done, but because the
Governor-elect, has counselors about
him whose advice will cost him dear
unless his eyes are presently opened.
Yours very truly,
JOHN BENTLEY.

OHyO,S ELECTORAL DEBAUCHERY.

m DAMS county, Ohio, has a voting population of 5000, and the
~ grand jury of that county will have indicted between two
and three thousand of these voters for taking brides. The
history of the United States has nothing to parallel this case,
Adams county is a rural county. It does not contain a single city.
The great majority of the Doodle" voters are agrlcultur1sts ana VII
Layers. but among them are business and professional men, and even
deacons of the churches. There are definite charges that nine other
counties of the same character are little better off morally. The
tradition that all the political virtues exist in the rural sections
and al. the political, vices in the large cities is a false one, as practt-
cal politicians know. In this State there is more votebuying by far
in the rural sections than in the cities, but there smoothing to com
pare in extent with this almost universal debauchery IN the ONO
counties. Ohio is President Tafts native State. He has reason to
blush for it.

4. BATH-HCo & AT THE WEST END.

oa HE construction G large public bathhouse in West Newark
has long been demanded, and that section is now to have
this necessary public improvement. By the plan adopted
provision will be made for a swimming pool to be eventually used,
but for some time there will be shower baths only. The space set
apart for a pool can meanwhile be used for a gymnasium and other
purposes. If cleanliness is next to goodness the planting OF a
hhouse in a residential neighborhood is akin to the establishment
of a religious edifce. The advantages of this new addition to the
social life at the west end will be keenly appreciated next summer
lin the summer heats.

that his life is in peril and act accordingly. A few tragedies like

The American people often indulge in
jests concerning time-worn institutions
until they believe them, thus destroy
ing the usefulness of said institutions.
The foregoing and profound observa-
ton is peculiarly true of those resolu-
tons to lead a bigger, broader, brighter
and better life, which "toueh on and
appertain to" New Years Day.
1t has been forced into the conscious
ness of the American people through
the medium of alleged witticisms, quips,
gibes. jokes and jests that 1t Is utterly
futile to attempt at any n certain
period to break off from cussedness and
lead a blameless life.
Be that as 1t may, no one can deny
that a sort of spiritual invoice, in
which we may take stock of the mis-
takes, the %follies. the weaknesses and
the triumphs of the past year, should
be an exceedingly useful undertaking.
That much granted, what better time
for such an invoice could be found than
the period which embraces the end of
the old and the beginning of a new
year? Pay no attention to the carpers,
but make as many resolutions as you
please. Some of them may stick.

It was announced yesterday that un-
less a certain ~alienist representing the
district attorney and another alienist
representing counsel for a certain fren-
zied financier were able to agree that
the financier was insane, he-the
financier-was to be arraigned forth
with and without further delay.
Such an announcement is an insult to
~alienists everywhere. They have, in
the past, drawn down upon themselves
all sorts of criticism. but has anyone
ever dared say they were not loyal.
No alienist has ever been called a
traitor.
Why, it was his very devotion to his
employers interest that got the alienist
in bad. 1t was his steadfastness in an
swering insane for the defense and
sane" for the prosecution that lost him
the confidence of the people.
Care should be taken, therefore, to
predicate nothing upon the possibility
of the agreement of two ~alienists repre-
senting opposite sides of a case. II
isn't respectful.
