We Will Do Likewise.

Regarding the charges for the
publication of political announce
ments in the Free Press we wish
to say that until such a time as
an authoritive opinion is given
on that feature of the direct pri-
mary law regarding the legality
of the payment by the candidates
for the publication of such no
tees there will be no charges.
However in case it is held that
payment can be legally made
the charge will be $40 for each
announcement. Some of the
papers in the state take the
stand that the law is such as to
permit the candidate to pay for
the publications and are charg-
ing for the same.
This paper is at sea regarding
the question and does not propose
to take the chances of disqualify-
ing any candidate by exacting
payment at this time but when
the matter is finally settled and
should the authority rule that
such payments can be made, we
expect pay for every announce
ment that has been run in this
paper, whether it is after the
primary, or fall election and re-
CARELESS of who received the
nomination or election. In other
words if the law allows the Free
Press viii charge ten dollars for
every political announcement It
runs during the campaign.
In the meantime candidates
who have this papers interests
at heart and fear the law will
not permit the collection of a fee
for publishing notices viii please
remember that we have a wei
equipped job department anC
can take care of your printing
: very nicely.
; Another thing while we are OF
l this subject: This paper will
; publish any political announce
z ments regardless of the part,

If Idaho is to have a republic
an again for governor Barney
O'Neil has ten qualifications for
the office where Brady has one.
These papers that are making
such a roar on O'Neil are very
unfair. O'Neil is a man, thor
ough man and it is safe to pre-
dict that he W ould not resort to
some of the tactics to gain Office
others are. If O'NeiI receives
the nomination we believe he will
not practice hypocracy nor use
the church as a means of gain
ing his end. There is nothing
low or grovelling in the makeup
of O'Neil. -Grangeville Ere e

err or not John C. Rice is prohl-
bitionist; and in the second place,
we don't care; we do know that
he stands four-square to the
world, and for that we care
much. We know that if John c.
Rice talks prohibition to his au-
diences he doesn't keep one OF
the best stocked wine cellars In
Idaho; if he likes clicked sox and
pink neckties he wears them; If
he approves pink teas and church
raffles he attends them. He is
what he is and acts as he talks.
Mr.. Rice is a business man and
would give US a business admin
istration; he is an honest man
and would give us an honest ad-
ministEation; he is a moral man
and would give US a moral ad-
ministration; he obeys the laws
and in so far as it lays in the
power of the chief executive
would see that the laws are obey
ed. What more could an honest
man ask? Why shouldn't we
support him?-Parma Herald.

]. l. Overman, present auditor
and recorder of Idaho county,
has announced himself as a can
didate for the Office of sheriff on
the democratic ticket and it is
going to take a pretty strong
man to beat him, either at the
primaries or general election.
Mr.. Overman is a man who will
do his duty down to the last let
ter of the law without fear of
personal consequences or whom
it may please or dispiease. If
elected sheriff he will enforce
the laws on all alike and show
favortism to none. The prom

more consideration if he trans
crosses the law than will the

how it happened that we favored
John C. Rice for governor, while

Jury Out in the Case of Former Coun-
Gilman COffey of PIttsburg, Ac-
cused of Taking BrIbe.

Pittsburg, April 2s.-The case of for
mer Councilman Maurice Coffey. the
third of the city fathers TO be tried on
bribery charge, went to the Jury to-
day, and when court adjourned for the
night no verdict had been reached, and
the jury was locked up.
Coffey, testifying in his own defense,
denied he ever had received a bride,
and could not tell how he voted either
on the bank ordinance or the Seventh
street vacation matter. He said he had
banks mentioned and "just went along
with the majority"
Former Councilman John T. Klein
Was again the witness for the common
wealth, and after describing how he
distributed the money, said that Coffey
was one OF the $S1.10 men.
An account of the selection OF the
German National bank OF Pittsburg
was made public by Klein on the stand.
He said he was not in the bank when
the money was turned over by the bank
officials, but Harry B. Bolger, a saloon
keeper. received the money from W. w
A. A. Nilsack, the cashier. Ramsey is
now in prison, while Bolger and VII
sack are awaiting sentence. Bolger
turned the money over TO Klein.
The arrangement for the payment of
the money was made by former Coun-
Gilman Charles Stewart and BoIger.
Klein said. Two thousand. five hun
dred dollars was paid for the members
of the finance committee of councils
while $4,000 was paid after the com
mittee reported the ordinance TO the
councils. Klein declared he gave Boil

Of II, arrived here today and departed
for the east tonight.
X Midzuno, consul general from ia
pan, en- route to New York with his
personal staff Of II, also arrived
The Chinese and japanese delega-
uons arrived over different railroads
and thereby hangs tale. In this con-
nection, General Frederick Dent Grant
added to his sOldiery name a re<uta-
ton for being a diplomat and a seer.
ChicagOang had arranged to meet
Prince Tsai Tao in state at the Wells
street station and entertain him for a
dozen hours before he departed for
Washington, while X. Midzuno mersfv
changed trains here. The princes ac-
ton IN San Francisco. where, because
OF WEAKNESS, he unceTemOniOUsly left
the banquet board before his hosts
found time TO present him with a gold
punch bowl, was much in mind. Hence
the word had gone out to be unusually
careful regarding the length Of the re
oeption.
The Japanese and Chinese parties
travelled from San Francisco TO Omaha
on the same train. The train was split
at the Missouri river. One section. car
rying Prince Tsai Tao, came into Chi
cago over the Chicago and Northwest
ern railroad. The second section, con-
tanning the Japanese, came in over the
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul rail-
road.
Mistaking the japanese for the Chi
nese delegation, a Milwaukee conductor
telegraphed Chicago headquarters saw
ing he had Prince Tsai Tao aboard his
train.
Railroad officials attempted 10 have
General Grant remove his reception
committee, secret service men and de-
ts chment of police from the Wells
street station TO the Union depot to
meet the Milwaukee train.
Although unable to secure definite
information, General Grant refused to
be swayed from the original plan. As
the trains were more than an hour late
the situation grew extremely tense
Gloom and uncertainty, however,
were finally dispelled as the famous
uncle of the Brother of the sun"
stepped from his belated train into Gen
eral Grants arms at Wells street
An automobile drive about the CITY,
q banquet and visit to a grand opera
performance followed. The princes
party, which includes Lord Ii Ching,
son OF the great Ii Hung Chang. left
for Washington shortly after midnight.

ADDRESS BY PRESIDENT
Marble building of international Bu-
reau of American Republics at
Washington Dedicated.

Washington, April 2s.-The masnif-
ieent new marble building of the In
ternational Bureau OF American Repub-
lics-within stones throw of the
White house-was dedicated in the
name OF Universal Peace today. Presi-
dent Taft Joined with Andrew Carnegie.
Secretary Knox Senator Root and
Senior De Labarra, the Mexican am
bassador, as representative of the Lat
in-American republics. in prophecies Of
peace among the twenty-one American
republics and pledged themselves to
strive for that happy state. Mr.. Car
negie went so far as to express the
hope that Canada, with the consent of
Great Britain, some day would Join the
family of peaceful American republics.
President Taft called out general
laughter by referring to the contro-
versy between Theodore Roosevelt and
Mr.. Carnegie two years ago at the lay
ing of the cornerstone of the building
dedicated today.
'"They differed as to the methods by
which peace should be obtained" said
the President, but that both were ear
nest and strenuous and determined to
have peace there was no doubt"
Hear, hear" shouted Mr.. Carnegie
as the laughter died away.

Holders of Steel Common VIII
Receive Five Per Cent. An
nually Hereafter Instead of
Four Per Cent. as Formerly.
EARNINGS FOR QUARTER
SHOW LARGE INCREASE
The Action of the Directors in
Increasing the Dividend Was
Expected and the Shares Did
Not Rise in Consequence,
STATEMENT OF CHAIRMAN

NEW YORK, April 26.-At the
IN meeting Of the United States
Steel corporation today the directors
declared regular quarterly dividend
of ~ per cent on the common
shares, thereby increasing the rate
from 4 to per cent annually.
IN a statement to the directors
Chairman Gary announced any addi-
tional disbursements hereafter made
on the common stock will take the
form of extra dividends. The ac-
ton of the directors was in line with
popular expectations, although the &C
ton of Steel common in the last SEES
sion Of the stock market seemed TO
reflect some uncertainty on this
point.
Earnings for the quarter ending
March 81 last amounted 20 S5frblbrstbI
with net returns OF SSl503.lS4. These
figures are likely to cause some disap-
pointment as conservative forecasters
had fixed gross returns al not less
than S39,000,000.
Comparison with the first quarter Of
1903, when an open market, with re-
sultant cuts in prices prevailed. shows
a marked increase IN earnings ana
business on hand. Gross returns tor
this years first quarter are S4.6S5,6O8
greater than those for the correspond
earnings are larger by s12,4lS,125. Tn
filled orders on hand March 81 aggre-
gated 5,402,514 tons. against 3,J43.5t5
tons at the end OF last years first quar-
ter
Contrary to the usual custom, the
figures accompanying the quarterly
statement were filled in with ink, in
stead OF being regularly printed like
the body Of the statement.
The regular dividend OF 1s per cent
on the preferred shares, payable on
May %, was declared. The common
dividend is payable June %.
Statement OF Chairman Gary.
The following statement was given
out by Chairman Ebert II. Gary after
the meeting:
The finance committee recommends
70 the directors the declaration OF 1t
dividend of II per cent for the quarter
ended April IS. During nine years OF
the existence of the corporation, ended
April l, the net earnings over and
above all interest charges and divi-
dends at the rate of Z per cent on the
preferred stock have averaged about
81 per cent per annum on the common
stock, while the dividends actually paid
on the common stock have aVera ged
only 2.3.
1T now is believed conditions justify
an increase Of the common dividends TO
the rate Of per cent.
As the membership OF the finance
committee and OF the board or direct
Ors may change from time to time, no
policy for the future can be fixed. but
il is the opinion Of the present mem
bers OF the finance committee that if
and when hereafter earnings viii justi-
fy further increase i'm distribu lions
they should be declared in the shape
Of extra dividends"

The statement says nine men have been
arrested in connection with the alleged
conspiracy aud Mr.. Rothschild ex-
planned that an appeal was made di-
rect TO President Taft by business men
concerned and through the Presidents
intervention Attorney General Wicker

inquiry conducted by government
agents.
While jewellers are said TO be tire
principal losers, dealers in general
merchandise are also said TO have suf-
fered and insurance frauds and arson

In the choice of jurymen, John B.
Stanchfield, counsel for Heinze, had
many interesting and suggestive ques-
lions to ask. One of these was IL the
talesmen would be prejudiced against
Heinze because Charles W. Morse was
chairman of the executive committee of
the Mercantile National bank during
the period covered by the indictments
against Heinze. Morse is now serv-
ing a prison term on conviction of vio-
lations of the banking laws.
Even more interesting ground was
touched when Mr.. Stanchfield asked:
Have you any connections with the
Standard oil company, or have you read
of the long series of suits Heinze had
with the Standard Oil?"
United States District Attorney Wise
objected to the question. and Judge
Hough would not allow il TO be an
swered-

itol today as to the effect IL would
have on pending legislation and the
coming campaign. Friends and sup
porters of the governor were plainly
downcast at the prospect of losing so
valued a leader
Those who have opposed his policies
have little TO say other than to express
their qualification at his appointment,
which will remove him from the field
of active politics. All agree, however,
that the governors services In behalf
of the Republican party viii be greatly
