THE THING CORRECT.

o.v. Bailey, who some time ago
complained that a conspiracy Of ST.
lence had been entered into against
him, seems to be getting q little too
much publicity of late. We UNDER
stand he Is about to institute 9 suit
for libel against the Parma Herald.
That is the correct thing to do. He
owes 1t to himself, his church. his
party and his family to establish his
honesty. II 1t is necessary to bring
the matter into the courts It should
be done at once. The people Of
Idaho will want to know before the
general election whether he 70 q
much maligned man or whether he
is actually dishonest. The matter
should be easily proven one way or
the other. The Parma Herald made
the bold statement that he was not
honest. 1t should certainly have the
proof before making such q state
ment or be compelled to stand the
consequences. OF course the Trib-
une does not know what the Herald
knows about Mr.. Bailey. The sup
position is permissible that the Her
aid can deliver the goods. We do
not know what It will take TO es-
tablish the charges made by the Par
ma paper. In every day affairs Il
Is sufHcient to show that a man lap

are justified in calling him a liar.

THE DIRECT PRIMARY


Idaho has had her first experience
in the nomination of candidates by
direct vote of the people. Perhaps
twenty-five per cent of the electOr-
ate exercised the privilege of fran
chise at the primary election. This
when the plan was new and after
agitation on the part of publicists,
newspapers and candidates. The re-
suits do not convince of real de-
mand by the people for this novel.
expensive and altogether useless ma
chine. We dare say that If left to
the people today the law would be
repealed with little dissention and we
would revert to the old familiar
method without a tear. 1t will not
be left to the people however, and 1t
is the duty of everyone to point out
the defects in the present law that
adequate amendments may be ne
gotiated.
The direct primary law was the re-
suit of the politicians becoming con-
WINGED that the people wanted this
legislation. The politicians in this
day and age are working overtime
in their efforts to anticipate the will
of the people. In their anxiety they
frequently mistake the clamor OF
the demagogue for the voice of the
oh
feeting phantom that somebody has
labeled the desire of the people

rather than in directing public opin

1.-The war had it's origin primarily
in the similarity between the names
of the Sells-Forepaugh and the

was originally the Otto Floto show,
