Lesson OF the Election

The Republican party has for years
been trading with the interests, and
bartering protection for money CON
tributed to campaign funds. II was
the Republican party that promised
revision downward. and then passed
the Payne bill That bin was a Re-
publican measure, enacted by Re.
publican congress, and signed and
praised by Republican president
The people, realizing that this is a
government by party, felt that the Re.
publican party should be held respon-
sible The judgment is against the
Republican party and against the con-
trolling interests In that party,
namely, those influences that were re-
sponsfSls for the Payne tariff And
the leaders will make a fatal mistake
II they construe the verdict in any
other way.

so many British competitors into the

Section 427S of the Revised Codes
/ provides that:
'-The writ (of mandate) must be
issued in all cases where there is not a
plain, speedy and adequate remedy in
the ordinary course of law"
The writ of mandate is an extraor-
binary remedy never applied and by the
courts never used, if the statute law of
the State affords an ample and adequate
remedy for the wrong complained of.
This principle of law is not only en-
unciated in our statutes in the quota
tion above made, but finds many ex-
pressions in text writer's and is regarded
as an elementary principle of law re-
lative to the isusance of a writ of
mandate.
High on Extraordinary Legal Rene
dies, says: (page go
'1t (the writ of mandate) is still,
however, regarded as an extraordinary
remedy in the sense that it is used only
iu extraordinary cases, and where the
usual and ordinary modes of proceeding
and forms of remedy are powerless to
afford redress to the party aggrieved,
and where without its aid, there would
be failure of justice"
Therefore. it will be seen that the
motion made by counsel for the
County Commissioners involves the ap-
plicatIon of an elemental principle of
our law, if the status of this contro-
versy is one where it may be lawfully
applied
Had the petitioner a plain, speedy

This Move for the Benefit of Farmers
and Fruit Growers---Will Stop in
Shoshone Jan. 26 at 9 A. M.

Something new in the interests Of
the fruit growers and potato raisers
along the line of the Oregon Short
Line is about to be undertaken by the
railroad company, being nothing
less than the installation of a dem
onstration or lecture train which will
pass through the counties of northern
Utah and southern Idaho.
The train will be special, consist
ing Of baggage car, two large COM
posite coaches and a large day coach,
carrying implements for the demon
stration of potato culture and orchard
heating, and on these two subjects lee
lures will be delivered by experts Sc
cured for the purpose by the railroad
company.
The personnel of the party will be as
follows:
Eugene A. Grubb of CarbondaIe,
Colorado, expert on potato culture.
H. l.. Edgerton, expert on seed po-
tatoes.
James Hamilton and W. Mahoney, of
Grand Junction, Colorado, experts on
orchard heating.
]. E. Wing, editor of the Breeders
Gazette of Chicago, ILL.,. expert on
soils
w. S. Guilford, director of the agri-
cultural department of Twin Falls
North Side Land and Water company,
general agricultural expert.
The whole subject of potato culture,
which has assumed such gratifying pro-
portions throughout northern Utah and
Idaho, will be fully dealt with by these
experts, their talks being illustrated
and amplified by means of implements
samples and demonstrations of methods.
Orchard heating will also be completely
demonstrated.
The total cost of the special train,
expert lecturers, equipment, etc. is
borne by the passenger department of
the Oregon Short Line, and has been
arranged by D. E. Burley, general pas
SeIlRGI agent. Lc u dlIi Viii DC Oii llC

of the present itinerary. The lecture
course has been prepared especially for
the benefit of the farmers, ranchers
and fruit growers of the country
which the Short Line passes,
and contains the latest scientific de-
in the way of fruit protec-
tion and potato culture known.
Lectures will be given daily, and for
the most part in the cars attached to
the special train. 1t has been so ar
ranged that one lecture will be carried
on in one of the cars, and another In
the second car, and at the conclusion
of the first talk the lecturers will ex-
change places and, as a consequence,
those in attendance win secure the
benefit of the entire double course.
