embodying the interview, as published
in the World follows:
Holds Fast To His Faith.
1t requires only a few minutes con-
versation to convince one that Will
liam Jennings Bryan, thrice Democrat
ic candidate for the Presidency, still
retains many of the ideas that over
night won him a conspicuous place in
political history sixteen years ago. Be-
fore three of the ninety-seven minutes
during which a World ,correspondent
talked with him on Thursday night
had passed Mr.. Bryan revealed his
determination to insist upon the adop-
ton Of progressive" platform and
the nomination of a candidate in sym.
pathy with its provisions at the Balti.
more Convention.
OF personal ambition, aside from
leading this battle against the "reac
tionary" forces within his party, Mr.
| Bryan seems to entertain none at
present as far as the Presidency is
concerned.
His Methods and Roosevelt's.
Mr.. Bryan made pointed reference
in setting aside the question relating
to the probability of his own nomina
tion, TO the methods being pursued by
Col Roosevelt.
Questions and answers were in this
order:
what, in your opinion, Mr.. Bryan
will most conduce to the success Of
the Democratic party during the com
ing Presidential campaign?"
Democratic And Progressive.
The one prime essential Is that the
Democratic party shall be Denocratic
By that mean that it shall give up tc
the standard that it has raised before
the people and fulfill the hopes; that il
has excited. The Democratic party
has led in the sixteen-year fight
against the corporate domination OF
politics. For more than one-half of that
time 1t had scarcely any assistance
from the Republican leaders. Seven
or eight years ago Senator La Toilette
the pioneer reformer in the Republi
can party, began to organize a pro
gressive force in that party. Mr.

New York, April 10.-A staff CORE
spondent of the New York World sends
from Chicago a most interesting inter-
view with William ]. Bryan on the
present situation within and out of
the Democratic party. The article
embodying the interview, as published
in the World follows:
Montpelier examiner., 1912-10-11

The Examiner believes that
the republican candidates for
county commissioners are
men who are capable of Civ
ing the people just the kind
of III administration they are
demanding. In Mr.. Spong-
berg, we have a man who is
thoroughly acquainted with
county affairs, having served
eight years as auditor and re-
corder. He is a capable busi-
ness man, and while he be-
lieves the county should be
progressive, he would not
favor the reckless expendi-
ture of a single dollar of the
peoples money. The other
two candidates Wm. Morgan
and Charles Brewer, are men
whom the people can depend
upon for honesty, capability
and economy.
Montpelier examiner., 1912-10-11

Regarding tbs legislative
ticket in this county the main
point for republicans to con
slider is this: Do you wish to
see VIM. e. Borah re-elected
to the United States senate?
If you do your duty is plain
vote for the republican legis-
lative candidates. The candi-
dates on the democratic ticket
are capable men and would
represent the county with
credit in the legislature, but
you must remember that they
are opposed to Borah and if
elected to the legislature they
will vote for some democrat
the Lord only knows who
for United States senator.
If you are for Borah, don't
vote against him by voting
for the democratic legislative
candidates.
Montpelier examiner., 1912-10-11

Out of something over 1000
republicans in this county,
who voted at the primary
election on the 30th of July,
$40 expressed themselves as
favoring the reelection of
VIM. h. Borah to the U. S.
senate. OF the other 200 who
did not express a choice for
senator at that time, it is safe
to say that at least 3 out of 10
were just as heartily in favor
of Borah as were the $40 who
voted for him. This being
true, it means that the repub-
licans of Bear Lake county
are practically unanimous in
favor of Borah's reelection.
There is just one thing then
for them to do-vote for the
republican legislative candi-
dates.

Montpelier examiner., 1912-10-11

Really, isn't it strange that
a highly civilized people, as
we of America claim to be,
should be burdened with So
many laws. Take our own
state of Idaho and we find
That the number of laws en-
acted greatly increases with
each succeeding session of
the legislature. Why should
it require so many more laws
to govern the people of Idaho
today than it did twenty years
ago. 1t is true conditions are
different today from what
they we're then, but we do not
believe that the need of new
laws has increased anywhere
near in proportion to the num-
Der that haye been placed on
our statutes.
However, with all the laws
we now have on our statutes,
there are still some that should
be enacted, but the coming
session of the legislature will
make for itself a name and
fame if it looks to the quality
and not to quantity of the
measures it enacts.

While there may be a differ

publicans of Bear Lake county
as to who should be elected

son why this shohld affect the

clean, capable men and de-
serving the support of every
republican in the county.

TAFT'S PROGRESSIvENESS.

The word progressive" is
about the most overworked
word in our politics. 1t is
used to signify a man of liber-
al political philosophy, who
was not closely bound down
to the traditions of the past,
but expected the coming of
new light, new men and new
measures.
The progressive" of today,
however, is much more like
what used to be denoted by
the word radical, or some
times by that of revolution
ary."
President Taft has every
title To be considered a real
progressive. He simply does
not want to go SO fast as to
sacrifice and shatter the re-
suits that have been obtained
by long years of upbuilding
and sacrifice.
President Taft urged the
postal savings banks, which
provide a place of savings
which host of working peo-
pie find helpful to their needs.
He established a tariff board.
which did great deal to take
the tariff out of politics, until
it's life was cut off by a Demo
cratic congress.
President Taft favored a
downward revision of the tar
if, as far as can be accom-
plished without sacrificing
American industries. He CON
siders the tariff schedule as
sacred, but expects that as
American industries develop,
they will from time to time
be able to give up something
of their tariff defenses.
President Taft has been a
sincere advocate of the con
servation policy. He has
shown spirit of practical
common sense.
President Taft has been a
very ardent advocate of re-
form of our judicial proceed.
ure, particularly in remedy
ing the laws delays. His
proposals along this line
would do much more to put
justice in the reach of the
poor man than the so-called
progressive" project to
place court decisions at the
mercy of popular elections,
with all their uncertainties.
President Taft mas rigidly
enforced the progressive laws
created to restrict the ag-
gressions of great. corpora

That there was a preventable loss
Of over 10000 lives in Wisconsin last
year, and that $4,000 people are seri-
ously, and, to a great extent, need
lessly sick in Wisconsin today, is the
startling statement of bulletin is
sued today by the Wisconsin Commit
tee of the International Congress on
Hygiene and Demography to be held
in Washington, Sept. 23rd to 28th. The
loss is compared with the horrible III
tanic disaster in which 1874 lives were
lost. A perusal of the bulletin sug-
gests that in our official government,
we are taking the same chance of dis
aster, and with the same lack Of pre-,
paredness that was displayed by the
condemned steamship company for the
want of life boats.
Upon the basis of an average cost of
$500 in doctors, hospital, nursing and
drug bills and the wages lost through
illness "a very low estimate), $4,000
900 in being spent or wasted through
sickness each year in Wisconsin.
The bulletin assures one that "ef-
fciently applied, present knowledge
would prolong life at least fifteen
years.! The purpose of the Congress
is to teach the general public what
trained health officers have known
for some time but are unable to use
efficiently without more general CO,

Commissioners Not to De
mand Meters on Sprink-
ling Plants in Factories.
MAY PUT ON AN INSPECTOR
Manufacturers Give Commissioners As
surance That They Will Pay Expenses
of Effort to Discover Source of Leak
age in the Water Supply.

A strong plea for the strongest and
most efficient fire protection possible
in the city was made by the manufact-
urers of the city when they appeared
before the board of water commission
ors this morning to protest against a
recent order of the commission which
demanded the installation of meters
for sprinkling plants in the various
factories. Every plant in the city was
represented at the meeting and the
managers of every plant held that the
order Of the commission was an I'M
reasonable one. The commissioners at
the end Of the discussion stated that the
order for meters would be withdrawn
for the present and that the commits
sioners would take the matter under ad-
visement and make an early report to
the manufacturers.
The commissioners explained that
The demand for meters had been made
on account Of the great leakage of
water that had been discovered and it
was declared that the factories were
suspected of using water that they
were not paying for. The managers of
the plants declared that they did not
desire anything that they were rot pay
ing for and that they were willing to
bear the expense of the employment of
IN inspector in order that the commits
sion might at any time test out the
water used in the plants. They insist
ed that they were willing and ready to
have the commission shut off the water
from the plants and make an investiga-
tion by testing the faucets.
They held that under the statement
of the city engineer that the meters
proposed would pass $4,000 gallons of
water daily without registering it show
ed that these meters would be of no
value in detecting any leakage that
might exist and that the only way to
discover the unwarranted use of the
water by any one would be by an actu-
al test. The manufacturers stated that
the question of the expense of Install
ing meters was not taken into consid-
GRAFTON but that the only question was
the reduction of the efficiency of the
sprinkling system which must neces-
sarily follow the installation of the
motors to measure water used for fire
protection 1t was declared that the
loss in efficiency would be from five to
thirty per cent for the various plants
and that this loss would prove very
expensive thing in the adjustment of
insurance rates. The manufacturers
took a position of being absolutely fair
to themselves and to the members of
the commission and repeatedly stated
that they would bear the expense of
any inspection that the commission
might see fit to demand.
