them up at sea after they had
abandoned their dirigible balloon,

great difficulty from their help

through the air from America to
Europe, and will try again next

The reception given Ex-Governor
Joseph Folk, idol of the Missouri
democracy and the mainstay of the
party at large for the presidency. by
the Boise contingency was certainly
royal, and Mr.. Folk must have real
ICED the fact that there was some
thing behind 1t all besides efferves-
cence. Mr.. Folk has fewer of the vas
aries and more of the sterling Ameri-
can manhood qualities than has yet
been manifested by any other leader
in his party, and If nominated for
the presidency will appeal strongly to
the insurgent element everywhere, fol
he has shown himself more of doer
than a blower on all occasions where
emergencies have arisen to test him.

over with. To this laudable end com.
mand US the situation seems to be
growing critical and demands sac
rificial offering.
The pith of the Globe paragraph Is
summed up In the last sentence: "If
the law violators and their sympathiz
ers are against Brady, who should
be for him." and that is all the body
of the article says or intends to con-
vey to the reader. Is there any tom
my rot" about that? And will the
Mirror deny the Globes statement
that the papers which oppose law
enforcement against 'bootlegging' and
denounce the officers and means en-
ployed to that end, are opposed to
Gov. Brady?" If so, name a single
instance, and the Globe stands ready
to make abject apology and retraction
1t cannot be done, and the Mirror
well knowns It, Then If the Mirror
cannot produce this evidence in re-
buttal, should 1t not frankly acknowl-
edge the corn, and also admit the
force of the logic contained in the
query of the Globe: IF the law vio-
lators and their sympathizers are
against Brady, who should be for
hfm?"

The legal mind is most discriminat-
ing In Idaho county, building a high,
msurmountable partition wall betwee Ell
politics and the judiciary. The Idaho
County Bar association, which is over
whelmingly democratic unanimously
endorsed Judge Steele, the present
republican incumbent, In a ringing sci
of resolutions, for reelection as dis
trict judge. This Is certainly compli-
mentary to Judge Steele. but no more
so than to the legal gentlemen them
selevs who have so nobly risen above
party bias and prejudice and placed
their imprint of approval upon one
who walks not with them politically,
but aside from his judicial capacity,
is stalwart republican, Such action
is deserving of special notice at the
hands of the republicans as well as
the press.

0 r is UP TO THEM.

The republicans and democrats of
Idaho county will have plenty of good
men up for office in the primary cleo
ton and there is no occasion for mud
singing. OF course, like all dry
counties, there will be strong faction
al strife In this county between the
wet and dry elements, but there is
really no occasion for that. The re-
publican party is on the dry side,
but will one solitary democratic can
didate for a county office come out
and declare himself against the pres
emit liquor law and in favor of sa-
looms? He dare not do 1t. Therefore
1t is plain that the republicans are
right on the liquor question. If they
are wrong why don't their opponents
come out and say so In the canvass
and make it straight up issue.
A man has a perfect right to de-
clare himself in favor of saloons If he
feels SO disposed. 1t may not be his
duty to rail against existing laws, but
It Is his privilege, as every American
citizen is entitled to his own opinions
But we notice that few men care to
come before the people as champions
of a lost cause, and We hope none
will try it out in this county.-Koos-
kia Mopntaineer.

Mortality IN Brooklyn.
Last year in Brooklyn five were
killed and over so injured. Eben P.
Morfort the president of the Industrial
Home for the Blind, lost his eyesight.
Mr.. Morfort wrote a very pathetic and
forceful letter to the Brooklyn Eagle.
This added to the interest aroused by
Tins unaided effort led to the appoint
ment by the Borough president of a
committee to plan a comprehensive cell
ebration of the day throughout Kings
county for l, 100000 people. This shows
how a very promising Development
grew from most humble beginnings.
The movement for a saner Fourth, as
it has come to be known, had in Brook
Ign spontaneous beginning. This
shows that with title effort success
full results may be obtained anywhere.
For several years in F'latbush, Brook
Ign, miles and miles of streets have
been decorated each Fourth of July
evening with japanese and Chinese Ian
terms. Those living on each block join
to buy fireworks and sometimes bands
and often the young people dance out
doors to the music. During the day
athletic games : re held. All this was
done to keep the young children at
home by making it unnecessary to go
downtown to have a good time.
Saner FOurths In New York.
The officers of the Playground asso-
citation Of America interested the mayor,
the school officials and the press in an
improved way of celebrating Independ-
ence day Mayor Gaynor appointed a
large committee of prominent business
men social workers, and city officials
to do for the whole city what the earlier
committee chosen for Brooklyn is doing
in our borough. If 1t is possible in
the largest city of the country to
arouse public opinion sufficiently to
produce concerted action to obtain
more significant and improved celebra-
ton than has been the custom, in small
Ter communities the task should be very
much easier.
Why was not the possibility of more
rational celebration discovered soon
er? 1t has only been recently that
anybody realized children needed to be
taught how to play. The growth of

cidenCS occurring on the Fourth Of July.
During the six years ending with 1908
there were 1916 killed and 1880 Sc
riously injured. besides the innumer-
able unrepOrted minor accidents. Grad
ually the horror of so many deaths and
injuries made people wonder if they
could not be avoided
A few years ago Everett H. Barney
of Springfield, Mass. began to give
$1,000 annually for fireworks. ParadeS
pageants and historical scenes were ar
ranged. The program for the day was
planned to interest the foreign races
such as the Greeks and Italians as well
as those Of longer residence in the
country. The day was given greater
significance and meaning than ever be-
fore and the novel experiment attract
ed wide attention.
Sale of Explosives Limited.
The policy of restricting the use of
giant fire crackers, bombs and blank
cartridges spread rapidly. In seven
states the sale of explosives for the
Fourth is now limited. In Cleveland,
Ohio. in 1908. ten people were killed.
In 1903 with a modified form of cele-
brating the day not one death resulted.
Throughout the country the fatalities in
1909 decreased This year over so cities
large and small in all parts of the
country are planning a quieter celebra-
ton.
Some feel that those urging Independ-
ence day be celebrated in an improved
and safer manner are a sentimental
set of "mollycoddles," to use a motor
ious term. This is far from true. Last
year, in our neighborhood, a barkeeper
who had heard nothing of the work in
other cities, made a house to house can
vass to raise money. The neighbor-
hood is one of old, small, wooden houses
that are eyesores and the people Italian
