was the democratic house. Usually
In the sessions In presidential years
much of the talking and the work Is
for partisan purposes--to make
points" for campaign documents. The
practice in 1912 was carried to an alb
normal length. The really useful work
Of the session could have been done
and the session could have ended be-
fore the Fourth Of July had the MEM
bers refused to play politics"
The record of the sixty second con-
gress thus far has furnished a strong
objection to divided power in the ma
tional legislature The party which
carried the presidency in 1912 ought
to have both branches Of congress by
a majority large enough to enable 1t
to carry out its policy. Then the peo-
pie will be in a position to pass intel
Iigent judgment upon 1t. The work Of
the democratic house in the session
which has just closed furnishes a
powerful argument against intrusting
complete control of the government to
that party BY Its attempt to make
capital for itself 1t has given material
aid to the republicans in the campaign.

HARMONY SADLY LACKING
AMONG IDAHO DEMOCRATS
President Of Ada County Taxpayers
League Assails Governor At Viii
son Club Meeting.

All is not harmony among Idaho
democrats according to the report of
la recent meeting of the Wilson club
lat Boise. President Clark of the Ada
County Taxpayers league, and a life
long democrat, caused CONSERVATION
in camp when he assailed the party's
candidate for governor and declared
that the democratic bosses had dis
franchised the people Of the state Of
Idaho in forcing slate before the re-
cent primary election. After extcll-
ing his own democracy as the simon
pure brand, President Clark said in
part:
Buff being a democrat means the
support and adherence of man who
imposes unjust taxes upon the people
of this state, who deliberately raises
the value of the land Of one man to
three and four times that Of his neigh
bor who assesses and taxes and then
throws 1t into your face that you are
rascal and tax dodger, then l am
distinctly not a democrat and haven't
the slightest ambition to be one"

NO.30.

, clning scale, the Walker act Of 1916,
the law of 1857 and the Wilson-Gor-
ma measure of 1894, nearly all Of the
tariffs had protection, directly and
lavowedly or indirectly, as one Of their
purposes. Even the act of 1894, as re-
shaped by German and his coterie of
democrats in the senate, aided by the
Republicans, aimed to give some meas
lure Of protection to many articles On
this account 1t was denounced by
Wilson and his democratic associates
| in the house as anti democratic and 1t
was characterized by President Cleve-
land as an act of party perfidy and
party dishonor." A history of the tar
If legislation since Washingtons days
would make very large book.
| I'VE reaffirm our belief in a protec-
tive tariff" says the republican plat
! form of 1912 "The republican tariff
policy has been of the greatest bene-
fits to the country, developing our
resources, diversifying our industries
and protecting our workmen against
competition with cheaper labor abroad
thus establishing for our wage earn
ers the American standard of living
This expression shows that there is no
purpose among the republicans to
abandon the protectionist doctrine.
Moreover on this question it will re-
ceive more votes in the southern states
this year than it has commanded there
hitherto. With the growth of the south
in industry the protectionist doctrine
will win friends there as it did for a
like cause In the west. There is moth
ing sectional about the protective idea.
Dixie will hear the doctrine expound-
ed there this year with more hearth
ness than at any time in the past. All
over the country it will receive more
attention than any other question.

PLEASED WITH NEW CHAIRMAN,

Wallace republicans, as well as 9th
ers throughout the county, express the
deepest pleasure over the selection Of
George A. Day of Cassia county for
chairman of the republican state CEN
trail committee. The meeting of the
committee at which he was chosen
was held in Boise a few days ago, and
was marked by the utmost harmony,
while enthusiasm over the situation
and the prospects of success in the
state was noticeable: Committeeman
were in attendance from every part
of the state and nearly every county
was represented. Each brought as
surance that his particular section
would give the ticket good majority
| in the November election.
It is known that Senator Borah,
John T.. Morrison, former Governor
Brady, former Governor Gooding and
others of equal prominence will enter
the campaign at an early date and
work increasingly for the candidates
of the party that stands for the. best
interests of the state. Many Of them
will visit Shoshone county during the
campaign and among them will be
the party's standard bearer, John NJ.
Haines.

LEST DEMOCRATS FORGET.

There is so much talk about the tar
| if and it's various aspects, so much
| talk about free trade, for example,
that many persons believe this coun-
| try at one time had a system of free
trade. 1t might be interesting to
know that it was a question of tariff
which caused the abandonment of the
Reconsideration of Colonies" under
which government we existed from
i1776 to 1889, and the taking up of the
NEW government, under which we now
exist.
Under the confederation the con-
gress could maintain an army and
navy and provide for the general well
fare" but 1t had no power to tax any
state nor to levy an import tax or in
|ternal tax. Therefore 1t had no money
to pay bills. James Madison, the
father Of the constitution" introduce
ed the first bill in the first congress
in the nation, following the bill which
provided for the organization of that
body. And that first bill was bill
providing for tax upon imports "in
order to raise funds and to protect
American industries.
That was the beginning of the pro-
tective tariff. Since then it has been
changed many times. But the princi-
pie of protection has remained. There
il not a nation on the globe today ex-
listing under complete free trade. Some
say that England is doing so. But
England has system of tariff on i'm
ports. She has arrived at her system
through the study of boards, such as
President Taft would have in America
had not the democratic congress cut
off the appropriation for the board.
The democrats in their platform
make the startling declaration that
the federal government has no right,
under the Constitution" to levy import
duties for any purpose other than rev.
'enue. Yet the man who wrote the big
ger part of the constitution was the
man who introduced and created the
tariff for protection. Do the citizens
of the nation, the Joplin News Herald
very pertinently asks, want to go back
prior to 1889 by electing a democratic
congress and president?

TARIFF THE BIG ISSUE.

Nobody need be surprised that in
the new republican campaign textbook
the tariff issue receives lengthy dis
cussion. The tariff has been with us
longer than any other question. The
first piece of general legislation sign
ed by the first president Of the Unit
ed States dealt with that issue. This
was the measure signed by George
Washington on July 4, 1889, which re-
cited in its preamble, among other
things, that 1t was intended for the
encouragement and protection OF
manufactures" Between the Madison
act OF 1879 and the Payne law OF 1908
congress spent more time over tariff
legislation than it did over any other
question. A roster Of the names and
dates of the various tariff acts Of the
past century and Nth would fill a
large space In a newspaper or in a
campaign handbook.
Most of the tariff measures which
went on the statute book had protec-
ton for one of their objects In gen.
eral 1t was the leading object. Except
the Clay compromise tariff Of 1888.

The regulations apply to all persons,
adults and minors and reasonable ex-

plication is made for the general de-

The abuse Of the general delivery
system by persons having permanent
addresses and the use OF fictitious
names impelled the issuance of tie Oh
ders.
Adults must tell:
Their real name, address, business
and reason why they want the general

persons and those who have no per-
manent addresses. All other persons
are not entitled to the service.

officials to be one for the "upliftment
of the public morals" because If the

General delivery at the postofiice IS

said William SAMSON, superintend INT
of general delivery.
About 5000 people come to the gen.
eral delivery Office every day. Perhaps
not over 1000 of these persons are en-
titled to get their mail at general de-
livery because they have permanent
locations. A large portion of the class
of people also have fictitious names
some of them several. In fact. clan
destine features Of the system became
so apparent that it was an impellirg
! force in the strict orders Of the de-
partment. 1t is readily seen tina. the
general delivery Offices were buriened
with mail and queries that were not
intended for that department.
Young college girls call at the Office
for mail and around them usually are
women of questionable character,
worthless men and crooks. There IS
not day that there Is not one or more
representatives of private detective
agency, police department or the de-
partment of justice watching the de-
livery windows for crook"

Technically the session Of 1SS7-SS ex-

that which has just closed. The ses-
sion "a years ago was, theoretically,
the longest which the country had In

such a year. The president of the

But what did congress accomplish
by extending its session to such a

work Of real consequence was finished
long ago. The leading reason why
congress was kept in Washington un-
til the closing days Of August this
year was because one branch Of it
persisted in lacking riders on supply
bills of the government which caused
a contest with the other branch and
which brought vetoes by the president
for the bills thus loaded which reach
