had not thought that SO much depend
ed upon the result of party's success
or failure In an election, but that ex-
perience was enough for me- 1t proved
that the policies advocated by the
democratic party, upon which the
party's platforms are based, are not
for the best interests of the country.
l learned then that the republican
party is the party of progress, founded
upon the soundest and best business
principles, and that 1t has kept pace
with or been in advance of the progress
of the nation.
II don't blame the young voters,
those who were not in business during
Cleveland's administration or who do
not recall from memory the conditions
that existed but what does surprise
me Is the fact that you find now and
then democrat so partizan or re-
publican so dissatisfied with some
nominees personality that they will
vote for Wilson for president, or for
the democratic ticket in any particu-
lar. l cannot believe that the voters
of the country will permit return to
the conditions that were so disastrous
to business conditions, but If they do,
! expect nothing else than q period of
depression and panic as extensive and
disastrous as any we have ever ex-
perienced. Free trade policies are not
designed for the benefit of the north
west or if they were, the designer
wasn't onto his job"

MADE WISE By EXPERIENCE.

Valuable lessons are taught in the

dealer who visited Wallace Saturday
was pupil in The school, and his

A HOUSE DIVIDED.

John F. Nugent, deposed chairman
of the democratic state central COM
mittee is an active candidate for Unit
ed States senator So is Governor
Hawley. The governor is operating
on the cunning basis of keeping his
Inspirations under cover at the pres
ent time. Nugent is not so particular
Consequently there is open disruption
in the ranks Of the faithful followers
Of Jefferson. Nugent has large and
Influential following in the state and
the contest promises to become par
ticularly interesting in that Fred T..
Dubois has allied himself and his ard
ent followers with Hawley.
Just how this contest will finish is
difficult to tell but at the present
writing they seem to be neck and neck
in their race to serve the dear people
in the capacity of senator.
AS the Pocatello Tribune views the
situation, 1t is probable that Hawley
is materially in the lead as he not only
has the operating machinery of all
state departments under his appoint
ment but he has the further good
offices Of Fred T. Dubois and the Cap
ital News. The Capital News is in the
questionable position of promoting the
third or Bull Moose ticket and by
maintaining front of independence is
endeavoring to accomplish the cleo
tion Of Hawley as governor with
democratic legislature behind him.
That ordinarily is an effective method
of doing little systematic knitting
In the dark but 1t is none the less
fact that the Capital News is heartily
In accord with the candidacy of ]. H.
Hawley for governor and eventually
desires to see him seated as United
States senator. 1t is attempting to
1iscredit Senator Borah in order to
carry out this idea.
Thus it will be seen that with the
allied forces of Senator Dubois, the
Capital News, and his standpat en-
oloyes, that Mr.. Mawley is in a posi-
ion, figuratively speaking, to put one

PRESIDENTS AND vEToEs.

Mr.. Bryan, in criticizing Mr. Tafts
,'vetoes, attempts leaving on impression
that Mr.. Taft has made freer use OF
the veto than any of his predecessors
in office. 1t is impossible to maintain
silence in the face Of such disingenu-
GUS attempt, even though criticism of
dead mans record must be involved
in the answer. After all, 1t Is history,
more than men, we are called to dis
cuss in such case. And nobody
knows better than Mr. Bryan that the
high veto record among our presidents
democratic party in more than half a
century.
| While Mr.. Cleveland was living 1t
, was possible to speak with freedom
of the nature and character of most
Of his vetoes. They contributed largely
to his defeat in 1888, alternating thous-
ands Of northern democrats who had
been loyalists during the civil war 1t
would be ungenerous now to criticize
them further, but it is right and proper,
when the record of republican presi-
dent is challenged by a democrat in
this pointed way to recall the fact that
Mr. Cleveland's vetoes were as the
sands of the seashore for multitude as
compared with the few Taft vetoes.
And Mr.. Bryans contention that the
veto power of the president should
never be exercised save in vital mat
tiers, also is at variance with the re-
cord of Mr.. Cleveland. whose vetoes
covered wide range of small matters,
and were not infrequently couched in
small terms.
This criticism of the Taft vetoes
hests wholly upon the vetoing of the
democratic tariff bills, although Mr..
Bryan, for the purpose Of cancelling
that fact, attempts to widen the scope
of his criticism far enough to include
the veto of the Arizona constitution
1t is on the tariff vetoes that the DEM
ocrats would like to arise and force an
issue, and they should find little diff
ficulty in doing so. Mr.. Taft, in fact,
raised and forced the issue himself
when the vetoes were written. Now
that 1t is up, 1t is well to recall that
Mr.. Cleveland did worse than veto the
only tariff bill democratic congress
mas sent to president in more than a
Allowing 1t to become
aw without either his signature or ,

'perfidy and dishonor." Such It was.

lent should have been used against II. !

In order to satisfy his own mind as
to existing conditions the average tax
payer should dig up the tax receipts for
the years 1910 and 1911, and compare
them. He will find very interesting
condition, and in many instances the
assessed value has been in excess of
$50 per cent, particularly on patented
lands. He will also find that the theory
of full cash valuation has been abused,
and assessments and levies are utterly
out of proportion, and Hawley has
favored a further increase of nearly
every assessed valuation put up to
him.

MURRAY SUN susPENDs.

The Occur d'Alene Sun, ofMurray
has turned up its toes to the daisies
and announces its temporary suspen-
sion; but with a commendable faith In
the field of labor that has long been

the Sun and Of Editor Ellarson hope to
see his hopes realized even sooner than
he anticipates. In his announcement,
Mr.. Ellarson says:

AS time goes on 1t Is interesting to
note that good sense and judgment,
that is part and parcel Of the cosmos
of any individual operating politically
or otherwise upon this mundane
thing in the right place. There are ex-
ceptions of course, but as a rule after
the individual gets rid of his chaff he
is ready to settle down to the substan-
tial idea and consistent action. Here
and there throughout the state we find
"a few politicians who had the finger
mark system Of Identification on Idaho
politics for years, gradually getting
away from uncertain hobbies and get
ting down to the basis foundation Of
sound government, and clean cut poll
cies. Those are the citizens who in
their own time become identified with
some movement or other to suit the
momentary fancy, but behind their new
ideas for revolution, reform or i'm
provement they have fixed notion
that the principle of stability is cent
cred in those institutions that have
made the home of our fathers and have
built and perpetuated a great and
magnificent republic. All sorts of isms
and fallacious movements have been
thrust upon the American people in
times gone by but the elemental prin-
ciple of good government has always
abided in those parties to which the
people have shown the greatest allegi-
ance and in which the greatest faith
and confidence will continue to be held.
The citizens of keen idea and judy
nent will weigh all matters carefully
before election day.

FOUND DEAD ON GRASS
Death Came to H. D. Carr While He
Rested on Capitol Grounds.

II. d. Carr of 513 Polk street was
found dead at the northwest corner
of the Capitol square about 1880
O'Clock Sunday night. He was found
lying on his right side with his head
on the ground and his arms extended
in front of him. Death was caused
by heart disease.
Mr. Carr was found by Police Off
GERS J. w. Mcclure and d. G. Scott.
The two officers found him as they
were crossing the grounds. Between
his arms was a pair of field glasses,
which were suspended from his neck
by a shoe string. His coat was found
folded under him.
A slight bloodclot was found on
his forehead and this was the only
mark that could be found. A purse
containing so cents was found in his
pockets. The body was taken to the
rooms of Fl. W. Bomgardner, coroner
and undertaken, where it was identf-
fled by his wife, and daughter, Miss
Lillian Carr An inquest will not be
held.
Mr.. Carr has been in poor health
for number of years, He was suf-
fering from the effects of a stroke
of paralysis which affected him physi-
cally and sometimes mentally. He has
been spending much of his time this
summer on the Capitol square because
that was the only place where he
could find relief from the hot
weather
He was at home practically all of
Sunday and left the house about
o'clock after telling the members of
the family that he had to get out and
take a walk on account of the hot
weather.
Mr.. Carr was painter by trade
and was born in Warren, O., in 1S45.
He was one of the early settlers of

daughters, sister and two brothers.
The funeral will be held from the
family residence Tuesday at o'clock
and will be private. Interment will
be in the Topeka cemetery.
