The candidacy of Judge AL
fred Bulge for the supreme bench
is meeting with a most cordial
and hearty support by the papers
in the north portion of the state,
the Wallace Times, Occur d..
Alene Press, Standpoint Review
Occur d'Alene journal, and other
of the republican press have come
out in strong articles supporting
him for that responsible office.
Judge Burge was called to Occur
d'Alene this month to hold court
for Judge Dunn, and has won
the confidence and praise of the
lawyers and citizens of that COM
munity as well as the papers of
the panhandle section. The Occur
d'Alene Journal, the editor of
which has known Judge Bulge
for the past twenty years, says he
has a record as district Judge un-
equalled in the state of Idaho. He
has tried more criminal cases than
any other judge in the state !;
thirty eight of the two hundred
prisoners now in the state pen
itentiary having been sentenced
by Judge Bulge, from Bannock
county alone. Notwithstanding
this record, he has the still great
er record of never having been
reversed ia a criminal cause, and
but very few times in other
eases. He tried the only case
ever tried in Idaho wherein a
public official was charged with
embezzlement while in office. The
trial resulted in conviction, and
upon appeal, the conviction was
affirmed. He has also tried a
number of cases involving grave
constitutional questions, each time
being sustained. This certainly
is remarkable record, probably
if equalled in any
state.

NOSE voice, and one night in
Boise City some of your people
gave him too much to drink, SO
much in fact, that he didn't know
what he was doing. The next
morning he walked up and dis
covered that he had bought ST.
4OO worth OF mining stock at four
cents share. Think of that. the
greatest outrage l ever heard of

mine in which the stock was sold,
but the experience has taught me
that western promoters are mere

band was robbed as surely as if

Mr.. Borah asked the name of !
the mine, and she told him. With

The so-called "anti-injunction
BILL has passed the house by a
vote of pa to 81. This measure
has been pending in congress for
eight or ten years at least, a
fact which one would not infer
from the size of the majority Civ
en- to it. A measure which meets
an approval so nearly unanimous
ought to be able to make a quick
and triumphal march through
congress. That it should pass by
so nearly a unanimous vote after
so long a struggle probably sig
nlfies, not that a large number
OF congressman have been heart
lily converted to it, but that few
congressman are equal to the .cour-
age of opposing it at this partic-
ular season.-Tribune. -.

RIGHT TO REGULATE.

While statesmen like Senator
Cummins are working steadily to-
ward real solution of the prob
lem of regulating industrial trusts
and corporations, there are still
some vital questions undecided
regarding the control of railroad
systems as common carriers. Last
month the Interstate Commerce
Commission, by a majority of
one, rendered an important de-
cision in a case Immediately af-
fecting Texas and Louisiana.
Texas state laws require railroad
rates within the state which put
at a disadvantage the shippers
from points outside, because of
the higher interstate rates. Com
missioner Lane, supported by a
majority of his colleagues, rem
dered decision under which the
interstate shippers must be re-
lleved by the railroad from all
disadvantage. This seems to be
an assertion of the fact that com
merce is national rather than
local. Meanwhile, however, ar
guments on April 1, were made
before the United States supreme
court in assertion of the opposite
principle. The state of Minneso-
ia has a law fixing passenger
rates at two cents a mile. Judge
Sanborn, of the United States
circuit court, granted an injunc-
ton against this local rate, on
the ground that it Disseminated |
against the interstate patron of |
railroads, who had to pay high
er passenger and freight rates.
The governors conference last
year had decided to file brief
against Judge Sanborn s decision,
and a committee of three-con-
sisting of Governor Harmon of
Ohio, Governor Hadley of Miss
)uri, and Governor Aldrich of
Nebraska-was appointed to pre-
bare the brief and make the ar
,uments. Governor Harmon s ap
,earance before the court at
Washington, on April l, attracted
much attention. A brief was also
lied on behalf of the railway
commissions of eight states, COM
rising Nebraska, Iowa, Kansas,
Worth and South Dakota, Okla
loma, Missouri, and Texas. 1t

A SPLENDID CONVENTION.

The Idaho republican state con
vention OF 1912 has now passed
into history. 1t was a splendid
gathering Of representative party
workers and leaders of the state
that assembled at Lewiston Oh
the 10th, the absence of very
few of the latter being notice
able-Senators Borah and Hey.
burn, and Congressman French
who were detained at Washing
ton by the continued work of
congress, and Judge Ailshie, be-
ing among the number.
The work accomplished toward
uniting and harmonizing the two
strong opposing elements in the
party was most gratifying to all
the republicans and proportion
ably disconcerting to the members
OF the democratic party and press
who have looked forward to this
great event, with joyful anticipa-
ton, in the full belief and hope
OF having stretched out to their
view blOOd-drenched battle
field strewn with mutilated re-
publican corpses, and bearing the
unmistakable imprint of a Gre
tain defeat and disaster at the
state and national election this
fall. But the expected did not
happen, thanks to a spirit of con-
slderateness and fair dealing
displayed by the elements, and
which was fostered and nurtured
by the level-headed ones on both
sides Of the presidential contro-
versy, until the convention bios
somed into what might be termed
a harmony meeting instead Of a
bloody battle field. However,
there still seems to be deter
miHation on the part of the Lew
lston Tribune (Dem) and the
Boise Statesman (Rep?) to have
the contention renewed, and they
are therefore trying to dynamite
the bridge from the chasm which
was spanned at the convention,
by insisting that a majority Of
the delegates elected to the Chi
ago convention are Taft men
instead of Roosevelt men, and
will 80 vote, Notwithstanding their
pledges to the contrary. Partic-
ularly do they insist that this
is true in the case of State Chair
man Charles l.. Hoffman; but it |
will hardly be made to work. Mr. |
deitman will either honorably |
larry out the pledge he made |
when selected as a delegate to
The national convention or will
resign and permit his place to be
Tiled by the alternate as will al
70 all the other delegates all of
whom are honorable men, and
oval republicans.
