A GRATUITOUS INSULT.

at is refreshing to know that some
one in Idaho has awakened to the i'm
portance of convicting it's criminals.
That insulting slur is the answer OF
Attorney General Wickersham, and
his coterie of carpet-baggers to Gov
ernor Hawley's protest against the
pardon of the self-confessed thief
Robnett
The self-important bureaucrats OF
Washington have seen fit to heap con-
tumely and insult upon a great state
and it's people, to accuse them by in
nuendo of being hand in glove with
just such thieves as Robnett, because
the governor of the state protested for
it's people against the prostitution of
justice to gain a livelihood for these
pampered gentry. The answer puts
the people of Idaho in the remarka-
BILE position of being branded as
thieves by the officials of justice for
no other reason than that they want
thieves punished.
Idaho is a fair state, and has had
a fair name, but this most outrag-
eous libel, coming from high official
source, will certainly blacken it in
the minds of thousands, especially in
the minds of those who believe the
West is still the West of the moving
picture melodrama, and that horse
thieves and outlaws flourish beyond
the Rockies like politicians among
Washington bureaus.
Wickersham offers as his only and
weak excuse, false to the knowledge
of the people of Idano, and far from
proven even by the carpet-baggers'
dearly bought testimony, that the Ket-
tenbachs and Kester expected to prof
it by the money Robnett stole from
them. That story may go with the
people who believe the West is still
wild and untamed but it condemns
the man who made it in every way
And there is the one weak sug-
gestion. They were after the man
higher up
An intelligent offering to an in
telligent citizenship is thatl
This coterie of special prosecutors
is noted for the things it has dane
to the man higher up" IN its long
record it may point with pride to the
sorry figure of Charles r. Heike of
the American Sugar Refining company,
the one lone man higher up whom
his eight months sentence for frauds
of million. They want to ret the
men higher up and they started the
steel trust suit as an equity proceed
ing instead of a criminal case prob

NOT POLITICS: DECENCY.

The Star-Mirror doesn't believe that
politics inspired Governor Hawley' S
attack on the Robnett pardon, but
that decency did. With all respect
to some of the smaller papers of the
state, now accusing the governor of
playing politics, thoughtful, honest
citizenship of Idaho unites with the
governor in his position, and in his
demand for a congressional investiga-
ton into the injury done Idaho, and
the insult heaped upon it.
The question is not one of politics.
1t is question of good citizenship,
common honesty and decency. Shall
there be premium for rascality? Is
that a republican principle? The Star
Mirror doesn't think So
Is it republican in principle to feed
the vulturelike gentlemen whom the
governor calls "carpet-baggers at the
price of the prostitution of justice?
That's not in the republican creed the
Star-Mirror subscribes to. If the re-
publican party must defend such
creatures then it is in a bad way in
deed
Politics? Never! But if the repub-
lican party in Idaho wants to make
a political issue of the case and take
the responsibility OF the Robnett SEN
tence, probably the democrats will be
willing that it should!
The Star-Mirror believes that Gov
ernor Hawley is voicing the sentiment
of the great mass of the citizens of the
state, whose every sense of justice and
respect for law is shocked beyond
measure We believe that in his pro-
test the governor is prompted solely
by the highest sense of duty as a cit
izen, and that any attempt to make pol
itics out of it will do the republican
party irreparable injury. Further
than this the Star-Mirror is at loss
to in any way associate republican,
ism with crime, and is not willing to
admit that there is any connection
between decent politics and the looting
of a bank.

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-Urging COM
plete governmental supervision of all
corporations engaged in interstate
commerce; declaring that he was not
misled in permitting the United States
corporation to absorb the Tennessee
Coal and Iron company; attacking the
United States circuit court of appeals
for permitting the tobacco trust to
reorganize under the plans proposed,
and criticising Attorney General
Wickersham, former President Tleo-
dore Roosevelt in copyrighted editor
ial in the current issue of the Outlook
today demands a square deal" for
the big business corporations which
The editorial is one of the most
caustic he has yet penned and de-
clares that neither the Sherman anti
trust law nor any modification of it
can meet the situation confronting The
government.
In part, Colonel Roosevelt writes:
the government has brought wildly
before the people the need of reducing
to order our chaotic government pol
icy as regards business. AS president,
in messages to congress, | repeatedly
called attention to the inadequacy of
the antitrust law, by ITSELF to meet
business conditions, secure justice to
the people and to the further fact that
it might, if left unsupplemented by
additional legislation, work mischief
with no cOmpensating advantage and
l urged, as strongly as l knew how,
that the policy followed in relation
to railways in connection with the in
terstate commerce law should be fol-
lowed by the national government as
regards all business concerns"
Colonel Roosevelt declares he went
over the trust situation fully with the
then secretary of the interior Garfield |
and quotes from letter written him
by Garfield relatives to the steel trust /
suit, wherein Garfield said:
Nothing that has appeared before |
the house committee has made me be- |
lieve we were deceived by Judge Gary |
The position now taken by the gov
eminent is absolutely destructive of |
legitimate business because no rule
is outlined for the conduct of business
of any magnitude"
Colonel Roosevelt then lines up
against Wickersham and the law offic-
ers of the administration, declaring
that he was not deceived in permitting
the Tennessee Coal merger, which is
one of the grounds on which Wicker
sham asked the dissolution of the Uni
ted States Steel corporation
"One of the grounds of the suit"
writes Colonel Roosevelt alleged
On the authority of the government
officials carrying on the suit is that as
regards this transaction l was mis-
ed by the representatives of the steel
and that the facts were

WANTS WIFE'S KISS
GETS ROUGH FIGHT

SEATTLE, Nov. 17.-When, last
night, it became necessary to fight
for the inalienable right to kiss his
own wife, Otto Manner, proprietor of
a Pittsburg Lunch bordering on Pion-
eer Place, put up an exhibition that
entitled him to go to the head OF
the class in the ursus major division
Not only that, but Otto demon
strated that, between OSCILLATION and
orange fritters, the former crops the
cookie in a canter.
He made it plain to interested pa
irons that the kiss kings it over the
cruller, and that the chaste salute wins
in a walk from the sardine sandwich.
Otto might have hid his light under
a bushel for years to come had not
Till Blades, a cook, hustled in out of
the snow last night and told one of
the youths in a pale jacket to get busy
with food.
Till told the assistant engineer be-
hind the marble counter to railroad his
order, as he didn't have much time in
which to stoke.
