HARMONIOUS DISCORD.

The Caldwell Tribune and the
Rlchfield Recorder are now en-
gagged III a little sparring match,
brought about by the editor of
the latter paper publishing what
he pleased to denominate near
Lincoln story, in which he holds
up to rldlcule the "old party lead
els both OF the state and nation,
and depicts them as leading the
rank and file into dead set ann
buscade i'll a blind canyon, and
then pulling off their shoulder
straps and throwing down their
slde-arms and resigning in the
lace OF the enemy. lie then ere
ates d Moses from among the pc
culiar brand of party leaders
which he seems to think would be
real leader" one who would
save the day, and in answer to
the question of what should be
done, puts into his mouth the very
forcible rejoinder: Give 'em
hell.'
The Tribune editor, while adj
uniting that there might arise an
occasion when it would be advis-
able to administer that kind of
medicine to the political enemy,
doesn seem to grasp the same
point from the story that the Re
corder man does, and therefore
calls him down.
The Recorder editor fails to
mention the names of any Of the
F" old " state leaders who have dis
played such cowardice in the
presence Of the enemy, but seems
to have made blind kick in the
dark which he thinks is coming
to him. Howbeit, it was not long
since, that he with a number Of
other republican editors gathered
at party love feast in Boise,
which was named a get-togeth-
er-meeting, by the promoters,
and there resolved that their pur-
pose IN life from that date on
should be to foster party har-
mony, number Of the aforesaid
editors practically, if not literally
admitting that to the unwisdom
OF their actions in abusing their
own party candidates was due to
the trouncing which their party
received in the last campaign. AT
the aforesaid love feast it also
seemed to be agreed that the next
candidate should
come from the north end of the
state, at least it was so stated
from Boise Immediately following
the meeting. just recently the
editor of the Recorder came out
and announced that he didn t see
any reason why such concession
should be made the north, and in
lected little of the vitriolic into
his accompanying remarks.
just what brand Of harmony
the Recorder expects to work out
by this means would seem to some
10 be problematic. The real
harmony promoter seldom goes
about with a chip on his shoulder
and biting words Oh his tongue.
Iet us get down to better things,
brethren of the pen,and show that
We have sense enough to lay off
our side arms when we are facing
our supposed friends at least,
wen if we do adopt the other
MOTTO for the opponents.

And in moaning soft and low;
Says, old man Its time to rustic,
Yes, roll out, it's time to go.
Who's the camper dead to nature,
Who-his spirits ARE depressed;

When he fain would take his rest.
