All chance for the Giants to repeat their
first successful trip through the West. when
they practically rode roughshod over all

when they lost three out Of four games to
their arch enemy. Chicago, last week. 1t

is set on establishing a seasons record for
games won. The short stay in the home OF
the Cubs who not only checked the long
winning streak, but cut short "Rube" Mar
guards remarkable sequence OF nineteen
straight victories, will not soon be forgot
ten The Giants, however, are still far out
In front in the pennant race, and no doubt
they will settle back 90 their winning ways
now that the Chicago 5eries Is behind them.
Three more games must be played with
St Louis before the team lands In Pitts
burgh on Wednesday for four-game
series. The Pirates are to be feared, as
they are playing much better than was the
case earlier IN the season. An even break.
however is about the worst that the Giants
should experience. From Pittsburgh the
team will travel to Cincinnati for the last
series Of the Western trip, and II will be
back at the Polo Grounds on July g To
wreak vengeance on the Cubs

the American League pennant race will be
continued on the Hilltop tomorrow and
Tuesday between the Yankees and the ST.

will put in an appearance on Wednesday

The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1912-08-09

Tests have just been made Of this
new missile, showing that 1t is prac-
tical, and may be used to put any
kind of armored vessel out of COM
mission very quickly.
1t is an ordinary looking torpedo,
only larger, and the forward end is a
cannon made of a very light and ex-
pansive metal called "vanadium."
The weight and pressure of the sea
all about it greatly strengthens the
thin walls of the cannon, and when
the forward end touches the vessel
a light rod pulls the trigger. The
pointed steel missile instantly bOres
through everything before it. and a
fuse, timed to allow the missile to
reach the center of vessel, explodes
the steel when it has just about cut
into the boilers or the magazines.
Its inventor is Commander Cleland
Davis of the United States Navy it
carries an eight-inch projectile, and is
known as the Davis Torpedo.

NEW DESTROYER OF DREAD
NAUGHTS.

While the leading nations are
building ships heavy enough to with
stand the blows of the heavier shots
from the modern guns, and makers
of torpedoes have been testing instru-
ments to glide under water to tear
great holes in ships sides where the
armor is thin, and the French build
ers were successfully matching the
force of the torpedo blows by expan-
sive inner plates, an American has in
vented kind of torpedo and cannon
combined, that will propel itself a
long distance to vessel, tap its side
and discharge a forty-pound shell
through all kinds of plates, and ex-
plode in the engine rooms or in the
magazine, filling the vessel with
steam from the damaged boilers or
blowing up the ship With their own
ammunition stored below the line of
travel generally taken by shot and
shells.

THE TITANIC INQUIRY

The English Board of Trade court
has completed its inquiry into the
Titanic disaster, and finds that il
was due to excessive speed and that
proper watch was not kept ahead
that the ships boats were properly
manned, and that the California
might have reached the scene in
time to rescue the passengers if she
had attempted to do so.
The court exhonerates J. Bruce
Ismay and Sir Cosmo Duff Gordon
from charges of improper conduct.
1t will make little difference how
many courts exhonerate Mr.. Ismay,
the fact remains that he did two or
three cowardly things and told some
lies about his relation to the vessel
on her maiden trip.

WHO IN THUNDER WILL?

Our city council, present and past,

ing body as was our populistic leg
islature when we had one. When
they had listened to their own voices
talking until the date arrived when
they could no longer draw perdiem,
they voted to purlOin the state IL
brary or so much of it as they had in
their possession, and went home.
But the city council does not know
when to go home. Tuesday night
they stuck around until 1-4O in the
morning, and. like the legislature re-
ferred to, they had not done much
but say things and then say them
over.
II citizen comes into the meeting
to confer with the council or some
part of it, they give him the floor
to state his case, and then allow him
to keep the floor while he states it
thrice over. If they refer something
to a committee to be bq them attend

as one of them said, Ito speculate

to the bottom of the subject and then
makes a recommendation, the coun-
Gil does not accept their report un-
til they have taken time to tear it
all to pieces to make sure that the
comm ttee hes exercised good judg-
ment and honesty in what they did.
After long parley over the matter
the committee persuades them to ac-
cept their recommendation, and thus
the council goes back into the same
hole it came out of.
Every time committee report is
offered, the attitude Of the council
reminds us of something that happen

was boy.
A legislative committee was check

capital in the executive mansion, and
one of them, "Greenbacker, in

committee became serious and said,

curiously and said" Who in thunder

GOOD ROADS FOR THE NATION

ISOLATION, is encouraging tho develop
ment OF highways, especially for the
benefit of farmers who own and drive
their own automobiles, and the per-
centage, it is reported, of cars sold
to farmers in this state has more
than doubled in the last six months.
Three measures are to be intro
duced at the next session of the Neb-
raska Legislatures, one for the pro-
visions of a state highway commits
sion, another for state aid in its con-
struction and maintenance, and the
third to permit the use of convicts
on the roads.
Arizona and New Mexico are try
ing to legislate an appropriation of
funds for the logging and mapping of
their roads, and Idaho is planning to
complete the Ross Fork sand road
from Salt Lake City to Island Park
and Yellowstone Park.
The New Jersey Legislature has
passed several measures to remedy
urgent defects in its highway system
and make the State more popular to
automobile tourists.
The state which is doing the most
extensive work along these lines is
New York, according to the press
agents of the Touring Club of Ameri-
ca, of the $4,000 miles of road in
this state, we are told, $1,000 miles
have been improved as State or
country highways, 5000 miles have
been macadamized as town roads, s.
900 miles have been improved by
towns as gravel roads, 10000 miles
have been shaped to some extent,
and $4,000 miles remain in their orr
ginal condition"
Many additional improvements are
planned, and the planting of trees
along the roads is also to receive at
tention, valuable factor in the
state forestry system, for each mile
of highway SO planted is the equiva-
lent of more than an acre of forest.
Such work as this helps to bring
the city and country into closer touch
and makes for Improvement In rural
and suburban conditions both for the
present and future generations.

GREAT THINGS FOR THE ORIENT

The peace of the world and the
partial passing of '"The Yellow Peril
are involved in the adoption of the
policy just being put into effect by
the new government of China. Esti-
notes of how the Chinese might
overrun Western America has be-
come a menance to the very existen-
ce of the white race in this country
are given new limitations by the de-
claration last week of the policies Of
President Yuan Shihkai, the greatest
man in China, and the man who
stands as the representative of the
most powerful element in that coun-
try.
In an important interview just
made public, he says the new govern
ment stands for the development of
China, the opening of her mines,
the development of her mineral re-
sources, the survey and settlement of
great plains in the western provinces,
the thinning out of the congested
population of the cities in settling up
those plains, the development of her
manufactures, the organization of the
republic and self-government of the
people, and whatever tends to the
peace, industry and prosperity of the
Chinese people at home. He says
it is more important that they should
build railroads into the interior than
improving harbors, meaning that
they will work to keep the Chinese
at home rather than to get foothold
abroad.
He declares that the Chinese are
a peace-loving people, seeking modest
returns from industry at home rather
than pushing business on work a.
broad, that this has been bred into
them for SO many generations that
it will be natural and easy to work
along the lines suggested.
In support of this he calls attent-
ion to the present peaceful conditions
of the empire, and the slight distur-
Dances and small sacrifice of human
life and of property in the revolution
by which hundreds of millions of peo-
pie cast off the imperial government
and became amenable to the republic.

STATE INSTITUTION NVESTI-
GATED.

A state wide scandle that promises
some unpleasant notoriety for Idaho
has started in connection with the
Industrial Training School at st.
Anthony, commonly known as re-
form school.
A boy named Ellis Greer, from
Lewiston, Idaho was numerically
whipped with tug in the latter part
of July and escaped to Idaho Falls
by rail, but the matron from the
school who happened to be on the
same train which the boy came out
on, recognized him and had him put
J in Jail to await the arrival of guard
from the school to take him back.
Sheriff Harry Bucklin discovered
that the boy was lame and sore, and
after heart-to-heart talk with him,
drew from him the story Of how the
boys at the school are herded in the
field like slaves by an overseer, and
severely punished if they do not keep
M with the best ones in the company
Greer was little fellow, and re-
presented that he was beaten until
he tainted, and for no other offense
than that he became SO tired ana
sore that he was behind all the time.
He was whipped four times in four
DAYS, and the last beating overcame
him and left him a wreck, and his
body is proof of the story SO far as
having been beaten is in question.
He saws that he was stripped max
ed and whipped all over his BODY
even across the abdomen, and the
marks ind'cat that one blow was
directed at the lower part OF the az
domen, barely missing the tenoer
glands which if struck with the END
of the tug, must have caused the
most excruciating agony and perhaps
death. The whip used was made OF
a tug of a buggy harness cut IN TWO
and sewed at the edges and fasteneu
n a handle so that the whole weapon
was 80 inches long, and Greer stated
that every blow knocked him down.
MANY details have been added TO
the main story, and Governor Hawley
Attorney General D. c. McDougal
and members of the board OF regents
and many interested citizens are at
St Anthony this week holding an m
vestigation of the charges and the
management of the institution IN
every respect.
The attendant who whipped Greer
is in Jail charged with a serious Of
Tense, and Superintendent }. i.
Humphreys is suspended pending the
investigation. If the charges are
sustained as reported or in any de-
gree approaching it, everybody con,
nected with the conduct OF the school
viii be discharged and some OF them
prosecuted.

NOT VERY POLITIC

At the Bull Moose convention,
Roosevelt and Governor johnson OF
California were nominated to lead
the pa. ty. and either of them cen
command all the votes that both can
command. Both are progressive
Republicans, and both are the idols
of western men.
If they had nominated for vice.
president some southern man who
could secure the progressive southern
Democratic votes, it would have been
more liz the line with politics as 1t
is played, but Teddy probably con-
sidered all that and has 1t lined up
as he wants 1t.

TWEEDY SIX

Benjamin F. Tweedy, former May.
or of Lewiston, who entered the race
for nomination for governor under
the impression that because he had
made big fuss over temperance mat.
tiers and law enforcement with the
members of his council. he was nee.
essarily the proper timber for gov.
ernor, has heard the voice of the PEG.
pie at the primary.
For new man in state politics he
did very well to rank fourth in the
race and feature of the returns as
one looks them over is that in great
many precincts where a few dozen or
a few hundred votes were cast, the
one ranking fourth for governor so
often read, "Tweedy SIX"
There is another man who has en-
tertained the idea that he was proper
timber for high office, and has
made the greater mistake of thinking
he was the only real timber for the
place. He and some of his followers
held a convention at Chicago this
week to nominate him to lead his
party this year-his party.
The Americans are generous in
hero-worship, and year ago he was
regarded as one of our he1os. If he
had just known when to retire or if
he had died some months ago, he
would have been sincerely mourned
by the civilized world. but as it is he
has lost friends the past few weeks
faster than he has ever won them,
and while he may poll large vote in
November. there are millions of his
countrymen who will examine the
election returns and be glad if the
reports from many precincts read
Teddy Six"
