PLEDGES OF THE PLATFORM
OF 1908 FULFILLED.


The Republican party presents
its candidates and this platform
to the citizens of Idaho with in
creased confidence that both will
meet with their approval. This
confidence is born of a record of
promises fulfilled. Its platform
pledges of 1908 were carried out
to the letter by republican gov
ernor and republican legisla-
ture. Our party, in its contest
two years ago, pledged the en-
actment of a local option law,
antitrust legislation, law for
highway Improvement, an EN-
ployers' liability law and several
other important reforms. All of
these and much more progressive
and reformatory legislation is
now upon the statute books Of our
state as result of the work OF
this political organization. In ad-
dition to this magnificent record,
the party has given to our citi-
zens primary election law which
enables the people of each politi-
cal organization to decide direct
ly who their candidates shall be.
ENDORSEMENT OF PRESI-
DENT TAFT'S ADMINISTRA
TION.
We congratulate our party and
the country upon the record mad
by our president William HI
Taft. Without ostentation or dis
play, but with calm, disposition
ate and judicial action, he has
proceeded to carry forward tc
fruition the mighty work started
by his illustrious predecessor
Theodore Roosevelt. He has sue
ceeded in having enacted into law
practically every great reform
pledged by his party and approx
ed by the people at the polls.

ECONOMY, AND REVISION OF
STATE REVENUE LAWS.

1t has always been the record
of the Republican party to admin
lister the affairs of the State and
County in an economical and
businesslike manner, and we
pledge the party to a continual
ton of this principle in the flu
ture. The State of Idaho having
outgrown its present revenue sys-
tenn, we further pledge revision
Iof the laws ON taxation and rev.
enue, in line with other progress
sive States, in order that the bur-
dens of taxation may be proper
ly equalized between the different
counties of the state, and that
all classes of property, whether
individual or corporate, may bear
its just proportion.
SHORTENING OF TERM OF
RESIDENCE FOR HOME
STEADERS.
We believe that the settlers
who go upon the public domain
and cultivate and improve their
land in good faith and reside up
on it for three years have given
sufficient evidence of their good
faith as homebuilders, and we
therefore favor the shortening of
the residence period for home
steads to the term of three years.

PRIMARY LAW UPHELD.

We compliment the citizens of
Idaho upon the passage by a re-
publican legislature of our pres
ent direct primary law, and while
favoring changes in the same that
the recent election suggests, we
reaffirm our allegiance to the
principle of nomination of candi-
dates by direct vote of the peo-
pie.

GOOD ROADS AND HIGH
WAYS.

At time when interest in inn
proved highways is moving all
our sister states to action, Idaho
should not be slow to recognize
that bad roads put a heavy tax
upon agriculture, tend to lessen
the attraction to rural life and
inevitably in the end work to low
err the value of all forms of prop
erty. We urge upon the coming
Legislature that it take the road
problem into comprehensive con-
sideration and provide for the
taking of such steps as will give
to Idaho a system of roads best
adapted to her needs and condi-
tions.

neither permit its abuse nor shut
our eyes to changed conditions
There should be an honest and
continued effort to fix duties ac-
cording to the rule heretofore an
nounced by the Republican party,
to-wit: the difference between the
cost of production at home and
abroad. There should be as nearly
as possible scientific adjustment
of the tariff upon this basis. In
order that this may be done eff
ficiently and that the facts may
be had for an intelligent applica-
ton of the rule, we favor tar
iff commission with ample powers
to gather data and facts, to the
end that while all abuses may be
eliminated, we may still preserve
unimpaired the doctrine of pro-
lection as understood and defend
ed by Hamilton, Clay, Lincoln,
Garfield Blaine and Mckinley.
FAvORING THE STRENGTH
ENING OF LOCAL OPTION
LAW AND THE SUBMISSION
OF A CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT TO THE PEG
PIE PROHIBITING THE
SALE OF INTOXICATING
LIQUORS.
We believe that sobricty and
temperance are indispensable to
good citizenship. We pledge the
party unequivocally to maintain,
strengthen and faithfully enforce
the local option law. We further
pledge the party to the submis-
sion by the next legislature, for
the approval or disapproval of
the voters of this state, of an
amendment to the constitution of
the state of Idaho prohibiting the
sale or disposal of Intoxicating
liquors within this state.
ELECTION OF UNITED STAT
Els SENATORS BY DIRECT
VOTE.
The Republican party of Idaho
reiterates it's demands for the
election of United States sena-
tors by direct vote.
INCOME TAX.
The Republican party believes
that the United States should
have the unquestioned power to
levy and collect a tax upon in
comes, and it therefore urges the
next legislature of the state OF
[ Idaho to ratify the amendment tC
the constitution now proposed up
on that subject.

HorER THE ADVERTISER.

Colonel Hofer complains that some
candidates are not living up to the
spirit of the Corrupt Practices act.
What is the Colonel doing when he
runs an entire page advertisement of
his candidacy in his own newspaper
about every other dayR If he had to
pay for that advertisement twenty or
thirty times before the primary, what
would it cost him9 Aud will the Col
onel deny that such space has a mon
ey value, whether used by himself or
anotheri
Every inch Of space in a newspaper
costs the publisher money, no matter
for what purpose it is used, or who
uses it. Figuring this page advertise
ment in a daily newspaper at actual
cost, Il will be found that it is separ-
ating tho Colonel from large amount
Of money-enough, in fact, that he
could not begin to pay for similar
publicity in an outside newspaper and
keep within the restrictions Of the
Corrupt Practices law. This. Of course,
Is presuming that space in the Capital
Journal is valuable-and it is hardly
likely that the Colonel would admit il
is not.
While the Corrupt Practices act
does not forbid a candidate using any
amount Of space desired in his own
newspaper. the fact remains that
vheu a pablisher uses such space TO a
far greater extent than any outside
candidate would BE- permitted TO use
il. such candidate does in reality yiO-
late the spirit Of the Law. Il is not
improbable that the Colonel, himself,
had this very view Of the matter in
mind when. in fighting TIE enactment

Spring Of 1894, be wrote ediiorially

PEOPLE STILL RULE.

Anti-assembly Republicans, So
called, assert that the 1900 representa-
tive members of the state assembly
and the many other members of the
several county assemblies violated the
primary law. But the people still have
their primaries just as if no assem-
blies had been held. Nobody will be
nominated without the peoples sane
ton. The very men who inveigh
against assembly recommendations
are appealing to voters in the pri-
maries. The public assembly recon-
mendations ought to have more weight
with voters than the secret conference
selections of their opponents. Both
will be passed upon by electors in the
primaries. Then why so much stuff
and nonsense about trying to boss the
people 9-0regonian.

faith on its side, it is not at all prob
able that the race company would now
be willing to submit to expensive and
burdensome exactions without a re-
sort to the law. Any litigation arls-
ing would necessarily be tedious and
costly, and when one considers the
legal ability of the three men who sat
as arbitrators, it would seem extreme
" doubtful if the charter amendment
now proposed by the coucil would be
binding, if adopted.
The Observer believes that the city
should have certain reasonable pow
ers in controlling and regulating this
ditch. but it does not believe that this
power should be practically unlimit-
ed, as provided by Section 82-a OF the
proposed charter amendment. 1t is
not to be presumed that the present
councilmen would force any unrea-
sonable or oppressive measures
against the mill company, but the sec
ton Just referred to would give them
or any future council such power,
and it could be used in the event that
the city desired to use it.
The whole matter should be decid-
ed in a spirit Of fairness. The mill
company should not be permitted to
escape scot free from the RESPONSE
bility of properly controlling and reg
ulating the waters of its ditch, and 1t
is probable that just and reasonable
charter amendment, drawn in spirit
of fair-play, would meet with little or
no opposition in any quarter. But
when it comes to voting the city Of
ficers power and authority unlimited
power which might at some future
time be used in such vindictive or
willfully extravagant spirit as to drive
the mill people out of business; power
to the extent proposed to be granted
to the council by this new charter
amendment-then it is time for the
people of Dallas to say "No." !"

Just at this particular season OF the
year. the neighborhood correspond
ents. like all the rest of us, are ex-
tremely busy, and we cannot ask
them to neglect their work to send IN
the news happenings Of their respect
i've localities. In fact, we are proud
to be able to print as many letters as
we are giving our readers this week,
as we know these items were hastily
prepared. Only the week before hop
picking began, the Observer printed
n news letter from every precinct III
Polk County-not only from every
precinct, but in many instances from
several neighborhoods i'll a precinct.
1t is a record unequalled in the his
tory of Willamette Valley newspaper
dom. After the harvest season is over,
we want our friends to help us beat
this record. These correspondents,
while helping to make the Observer
popular newspaper, render invaluable
service to their home communities and
to their county. Their letters, taken
collectively, advertise to the world
that Old Polk is keeping step with
the march of progress in all lines of
industry and development; that its
people are industrious and enterprls-
ing, and that its social life is such as
appeals to all men and women who
are seeking a home among friendly,
neighborly people. 1t is our fond am
bition TO fill the entire first page of
every Friday paper with neighbor-
hood news, and we ask our corre-
spondents to help us accomplish this
result.
