est effort TO enforce the law 1t is

wood Chronicle.
The Globe Is strictly in accord with
a greater portion of the above article.
It believes In the enforcement of the
local option law and the election of a
prosecutor who will do his best to see
that 1t Is done; and it believes also
In the people and papers giving the
prosecutor announcement and moral
support in his efforts to do this, In
stead of ranting and knocking, as
some do, when he doesn't have Jerk
ed ''bootlegger" for breakfast every
morning in the week, and then froth-

crying lay on McDuff," give them

As the Chronicle says, If the law
when strictly enforced does not pro-
duce better state Of affairs than
existed prior to its enactment, then
1t is time to repeal it, and the sooner
this Is done the sooner the citizens
of Idaho county will know just
where they are at" But. as the
Chronicle says, this will never come
to pass until big effort to enforce
local option has been made and the
law proven failure"-or success,
the Globe will add; for 1t will not do
TO condemn the local option law or
any other statutory enactment, until
1t has been proven failure; and II
1t requires detectives, or additional I
deputies, or the assistance of any
other means resorted to for the en- /.
forcement OF any other law on the
statute books, let all who really wish
to see the law tried out, say amen,
and acquiesce in it. II 1t Is wrong
to use detectives to catch bootleg
gers then it will all the sooner hast
en- the repeal of the law If the offic-
ers do 50. The Globe stands square
ly for the local option law, but If a
majority OF the voters of Idaho coun-
ty say they do not want 1t, 1t will sub
nit as gracefully as 1t knows how
and there will be no 'grouching"
about 1t.

DEMOCRATIC HARMONY.

II is stated on good authority that
j. II. Hawley. democratic candidate
for governor, and John II. Nugent.
chairman of the democratic state cen,
trail committee, had quite falling out
recently, In which Mr. Hawley inform
ed the chairman that he could "go
plumb to" SO far as he was concern
ed; that he could steer his own DO
litical craft without let or hindrance
on the part of the chairman, and that
he decidedly preferred to do so rath-
or than be dictated to. Mr.. Nugent
has been insisting that the democrats
all over the state curb their anthem
perance tendencies and make their
Wills subservient to party interests
by endorsing local option. Mr. Haw-
ley is a rabid anti-temperance advo-
cate, to whose efforts was largely
due the fact that Ada co unity went
wet at the local option election.
This matter of temperance was the
subject upon which the two friends
differed aud caused the split which
it will require time to heal Nugent
and Hawley have always been fast
friends; they with Judge p rkey con-

the present schedule the best so far
provided. A day boat would necessi-
tate transfer OF freight at Tappahan-
mock. He said the adding Of a river
boat would interfere with the present
schedule and he thought people on lower
part OF the river would not be satisfied
with curtallment. IL is the aim of
the company. he said. TO give the best
schedule for results to increase bust
ness. He said the suggestions made
would have the best consideration of
the company and if any improvements
could be made the company would be
glad TO make them.
Mr.. Murdoch said he was glad to
meet the representatives from along
the river and fredericksburg and that
ne had nothing further to offer as Capt
Thomson had fully stated the position
of the company.
Mr.. w. ID. Scott was called upon and
made an extended address, analyzing
the present schedule and emphasized
that the geographical situation of the
section is such that landings had to be
made IN the night. This is unavoid-
able on account Of the long trip. He
said the river boat would necessitate
the transfer of freight at Tappahan-
mock, and that the cutting out of any
OF the large steamers TO Fredericks-
burg would impair the schedule TO Bal
tlmore from the lower part of the river.
MIR. Scott emphasized the cheapness of
the service and said occasional irreQu-
larities of schedule were due to weather
conditions, which could not be avoided.
Mr.. Beverley again emphasized the
need of better schedule along the
river; said the people would then be
willing to locate in that section.
Mr.. Brannan said the matter rested
with the steamboat company. He
presented the two petitions and asked
for favorable consideration from the
steamboat company. He said the people
OF fredericksburg preferred a boat to
run TO lrvington, but were willing to
accept Tappahannock.
Mr.. Beverley said he would be salts
ned for number of large boats coming
to fredericksburg TO be curtailed to
two boats week. provided a river boat
was put on.
Mr.. Brannan then thanked all present
Tor their attendance and interest and
the conference was over.
Capt. Thomson will communicate
with the conference committee later
and announce the conclusions reached
by the steamboat company.
