KICK THE DOG: WELCOME THE
MAN


There never was time when the
future Of Idaho was SO menaced by
petty politics as it is today. It was
started in the legislature two years
ago, when Democratic members, plac-
ing party above state, sought thru
insinuation to create suspicion in the
minds Of Idahoans respecting the
really splendid work done by pub
lie officials in the upbuilding OF this
commonwealth They succeeded in
way. but in doing so they aroused
feeling OF distrust among outside
investors most harmful to the state.
During the campaign last fall sim
alaf tactics were resorted to, but
more boldly and with less thought
for the effect upon Idaho No charge
was uttered susceptible of proof but
by innuendo the people were advised
that something was wrongi" Pri-
vate character and public honor were
not spared in this shameless under
handed assault; but while the in
dividual. the official, was temporari-
ly Injured, the monumental damage
after all was to Idaho. On the out
side the impression was gained that
this state had become honeycombed
with corruption-as base libel as
was ever given currency.
There was but one object in all
this dedecorous effort, ana that was
to bring political victory to a hand
full of men who had managed to Sc
cure control of the Democratic. par
ty but who in no wise represented
the honest views OF the rank and file
of that party in relation to the sub
ject matter under discussion.
partial victory was scored, at
what cost to Idaho none can yet call
culate. Then came the climax of a
legislative investigation--an what
farce it has beent The people had
been led to believe there was Some
thing wrong" and they wanted the
proof. They have seen nothing but
the footprints Of the same crafty
wolf 1t may be worth the patience
and the expence to the public. though
to know how base an dhow baseless
had been these yelled allegations
The state has suffered terribly by
virtue OF this unheard Of campaign
for political preferment this stab
bling of regulations for a few public
places; this blackening of Idaho's
fair name for mess OF party advan-
tage
viii the people permit these agen-
cies to go on shooting Idaho in the
back?
Is It not for the public. lrrespec-
tive of any and all political consider
ations. to rise up in righteous wrath
and serve notice on these guerillas of
politics that they may expect to be
relegated to the gloom and isolation
of the obloQuy they so richly merit
unless they shall abandon their en-
venomed policy of sham and deceit
and calumniation? ~
Isn't 1t about time to impress
upon all politicians Of all parties
the fact that the future Of Idaho is
Of more moment than few paltry
official salaries
Isn't it about time to kick the dog
of CHEAP politics out Of our pathway
and extend our Hands in welcome to
the man who is anxious to come to
MS and aid in the development Of our
resources? Statesman.

People by the tens Of thousands

Is it the fault of eastern people
who rush as rapidly as steam will

own fault that we have never told

RESTORE GRAY HAIR
 ID NATURAL COLOR
By Common Garden Sage, a Simple Remedy for 0andruff
 Falling, Faded. Gray Hair

The old idea of using sage for dark. eDing the hair is again coming in vogue Our grandmothers used to have dark, glossy hair at the age ol seyenty-fiye. while our mothers have white hair before they are fifty Our grsndmothers used to make a sage tea" and apply it 10 their hair. The tea made their hair soft and glossy, and gradually restored the natural ccior.
 One objection to using such prep. aration was the trouble Of making ir, especially as it had to be made every two or three days. OH account of sour ing quickly. This objection has been overcome. and by asking almost any frst-eIass druggist for Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Hair Remedy the public can get a superior preparation ol sage, with the admixture of sulphur, another valuable remedy for hair and scalp troubles. Daily use of this prep. aration will not only quickly restore the color e the hair, but will also stop the hair from falling out and make it grow.
 Get a bottle from your druggist io- morrow. Use it and see for yourself how quickly dandruff goes and gray hairs vanish.
 This preparation is offered to the public at fifty cents a bottle, and is recommended and sold by ail drug s'Su. es,

FREE LANCE
 WIDELY HURLED
 ON SUNDAY NIGHT
W. B. CleaY Addresses Final Word Several Thousand
 of Them, 10 Voters


 Though the primary campaign was supposed to have closed so far as Ihis district was concerned. bs Mark Smiths meeting at Lowell. il was kept open in Bisbee until nearly mid night by w. B Cleary. who appeared on the street without ample warning and soon attached a large crowd. In- stead Of occupying his asHal soap box. Mir. cleary used dray for his platform.
 Mir. Cleary brandlshed a free lance. II was directed at all parties and all factions. and twas wielded in behalf of comparatively few Other caDdi- dates whose nomination the speaker particularly urged were Eugene s. Ives for the senate ,and Mulford Win sor for the house Of representatives. But there was one thing on which Mir Cleary wss especially insistent, and that was a pledge by the candi- dates for the senate that they would oppose at every mark in the road. and 10 the ultimate ditck.. the confirma- tion of the nomination should 1t be madeI of Hon. Richard r. Sloan to be federal judge.
 The labor aad socialist elements were fiayed by the speaker on ae- count of their Inconsistencies of the democratic candidates and one repub- lican candidate from this county As to the republican candidates for the state offices and for congress, the speaker had little to say As his re- marks had to do with candidates 10 be chosen under the new primary law they would not be appropriate 10 the republican candidates. who had been chosen at a conference.
 Of the democrats, Col. Pickett was the choice of the speaker for the United States senate. though he did not regard him as the ablest can didate. But wherein he fell short in ability. he made np in cleanliness and spotlessness.
 It was expected that Mir. Cieary would reiterate his well known vision on the subject of the recall of the Judiciary. as he regards the provision In the Arizona constitution as so pc euliarly iniquitous, not to say vicious. He has so expressed himself in var ious utterances and once during the campaign. in public address. In his opinion the menaeed judge should not be compelled to run the gaunt- let of an election. opposed by a popu- lar candidate. but should be given ali orderly hearing before the legisla- ture, whose finding should be re ferred to the people.
 Whether OF not Mir. cleary made or altered a voted by his three hours speech on Sunday night, he coined a happy expression. and put il into circulation. He gave to Col. Roosevelt the title of the great Exit who had made his exit from the theater of politics, and against whose return the door was forever closed.
 The same speech was presumably made 10 the voters of Douglas last night.
