Politicians Talk Much About "The PEG.
plen--Who Are the People?

| In an article in the June American
Magazine on Our Next President and
Some Others Ray Stannard Baker has
the following to say about "the people,
about whom, Of course, we are hearing
so much during a presidential campaign;
Who are the people? Who are the
people who are to be trusted with the
initiative, referendum and recall?
1T is enc OF the most curious things
in the world, how men differ when they
speak Of the people, For example, are
negroes people? Are women people? In
q few places negroes are people in pc.
litical sense, but in the South there are
100000 OF them who are not people
In few places women are people, to be
trusted with the democratic instrumen-
talities, but in most places they are not,
II we could really agree on who are the
people, we should have all our troubles
settled in a twinklingl But We can't;
and that is the very basis of this and
Of all the other great political crises.
Now, then, in the past while nom
naly we have had democracy in this
country, we have had a very narrow idea
as TO how many people should be includ-
ed in the democracy In early days in
New England only church members
could vote, and afterward only owners
OF a certain amount OF property. Every
political revolution is caused by the eff
fort OF new class Of people TO get into
the democracy No mere quarrel over
an injury done to material interest
ever produced revolution. Such quar-
rels produce revolts, but not revolutions.
"Now. the conservatives OF to-day
Taft, Harmon, and others willing to
tinker the tariff, and thus redistribute in
small measure a few material benefits.
But the proposal Of the progressives goes
deeper; They would let in as sharers Of
government, with the business men and
property owners who have SO long dom
mated the country, an immense class OF
people further down in the scale-men
who, though nominally voters, have in
reality had nothing to say about thelY
And that is why, to all of
those who are comfortable and safe, such
men as La Toilette and Wilson are dan
gerous. They are reyclutionaries. They
disturb the former equilibrium of con
troll They are looked upon much as Old
King John must have looked upon his
barons, coming TO force him to sign the
Magma Charta, letting in whole new
class Of people to share in the govern
ment.
Nothing, indeed, can exceed the
of modern conservative
the type of the comfortable, prosperous
business men-when he sees whole states
sending in huge maiorities for such
.dema gogues' and 'revolutionaries" as
Roosevelt. Ia Toilette or Wilson They
have the feeling of the angler who sud
denly feels the surprising ting Of a fish
bigger than he supposed was to be found
in the pool! The reason is that for
merly. when he wanted political news, |
be asked his friend the banker, or the
merchant II the railroad owner--and 10! !
he got his true prophecy. He never con
,idered the mass Of the people at all 1
But now the mass is awakening, rubbing
Is eyes, and demanding a share in the
government"

JOHNSON & HANDBOOK AT WORK
FOR THE FARMERS

Victor o. Johnson Of the law
firm of Johnson & HaddOck Of
Shoshone, made trip to Jerome
last week at the request Of the Of
ficials of the Twin Falls Norh Side
Canal Users Association which re-
suited in a business agreement be-
tween the parties named. Last
year the association employed as
their legal representative one OF
the leading law firms of Boise. And
it goes without saying that legal
fees in such cases reach up into
the thousands of dollars annually.
But finally the Carey Act settlers
of the Great North Side project
comprising the members of the as
sociation got wise to the fact that
right here in Lincoln county are
attorneys who measure up to any
in the state. They watched with
interest the splendid fight made by
Johnson & Haddock before the
Interstate Commerce Commission as
legal representative of the Nation
al WoOlgrowers Association. And
they concluded that a firm of such
caliber, located in their own county
might be of greater service to
them than a firm located in the
state capital. And it might be re-
marked in passing that the poll
ticians of Idaho are taking notice
of the rising legal stars of Sho-

AT a meeting of the school board
of District No. 20, it was decided
to extend the school term three
months. This gives the small
children a better chance; with bet
ter weather conditions those that
live in remote sections of the dis

results than in the winter time.
District If also expects to extend
the present term.
Now while winter work is not
pressing is the time for the public
spirited settler to help the COM
munity he is in by getting out on
the section line and opening a
road at least as far as it touches
his own land. If every rancher
on the tract would do this there
would be much valuable. time
