ELECTION OF JUDGE STEWART.
Statesman

The election of Judge Stewart is
one of the most important victories
for good citizenship and sound gov
eminent yet recorded in this state
not because the candidate was Judge
Stewart, nor because he was Re-
publican but because the spirit be-
hind opposition to him, if triumphant
would have been tantamount to polit-
ical degradation of our courts.
The vicious opposition to Judge
Stewart, as distinguished from the
legitimate opposition, was based
on a decision against the Bull Moose
party. 1t would have been all right
if it had been in it's favor, but be-
cause the court under the law, decid-
ed against it the only member of the
court who could be reached must be
torn down.
What spectacle for good citizen
ship If the plan had succeeded!
The people of Idaho have repudi-
ated the idea that our courts may be
made the shuttlecocks of politics.
1t is splendid sign. It is more
significant than the success or failure
of any party or any candidate.

DEATH OF w. A. SAMPLE.

VIM. A. Sample died at Horse
shoe Bend Idaho, Nov. 9th 1912 from
the effects of an operation perform
ed sometime ago for gall stones. The
remains were buried at Blackfoot,
Idaho on the 18th inst. under the
auspices Of the Masonic Lodge. Rev.
Barnstable of the Methodist Church
conducting the service.
Deceased was born at Belfast, Ire
land, May 18th 1850 and removed
to this country with his parents dur
ing his youth. His family settled at
Monmouth, ILL., Mr.. Sample later
moved to Oregon where he engaged
in the sheep-business being for some
time partner with the late J. D. Wood
of the Wood Live Stock Company.
He came to Idaho about 1892, and
located west of Blackfoot, where he
owned the farm now owned by Fred
Bergeson. He later entered politics
and was elected Probate Judge, and
later still was appointed city Judge.
About 1904 he moved to Caldwell,
where he engaged in the practice Of
law. He later moved to Idaho City,
where he was prosecuting attorney
for Boise county. Soon after the ex-
peration of this term of office he
moved to Horseshoe Bend where he
was engaged in practicing his profess
sion at the time of his death.
He is survived by his wife Mace E.
Sample, whom he married in 1905,
his first wife having died in 1901,
also five children, Mrs. J. G. Bond,
Mrs. c. v. Fisher, Lillian Sample,
Roy Sample, and George Sample.

DIDN'T DO THE WORK.

The Socialists and Progressives
have been profuse in demanding to
know why their tickets were not in
cluded in the first reports made of
the election returns. Some of them
manifested annoyance and DISPOSE
ton to blame the management of the
paper for not having it.
1t is very much like blaming
the post master when we do not re-
ceive letters we expected. He can't
help it if people don't write to us.
Neither can the newspaper office pub
lish election returns until they are
obtainable.
The two old parties make arran-
arrangements to have somebody at
each polling place to copy the column
of figures before the books are seal
ed, and this is telephoned to the
county seat as soon as possible. By
this means the results of the elect
ion are known several days In adj
vance of the official count. If the
Socialists and Progressives depend on
the other fellows to send in their
part of the report they should not
complain If they neglect to do 1t in
the small hours of the morning when
everybody is tired and sleepy.
We are publishing new table
this week showing the official count.
A comparison with what has been
published before reveals many errors
due to misunderstanding in calling
the figures by telephone. These tab
ulated reports are among the diff
cult pieces of work gotten out in the
printing Offices, and the linotype OPP
orator who sits down at the machine
with big ruled shet of paper be-
fore him and produces big section
of metal that prints it as we have it
on page has accomplished some
thing in the art preventative

THE CAREY LAND SUIT.

A suit has been pending in the dis
trict court of Bingham county for
some months to determine whether
or not the people on the American
Falls tract shall pay taxes for the
year 1911. 1t is test case brought
by J. r. Foulks of Aberdeen, and
payment Of taxes has been withheld
by many of the settlers in that local
ity pending the decision.
The Carey Act is comparatively
new law, and many problems had to
be worked out as they arose. There
seemed to be nothing In the act in
dicating just when the obligations Of
the settler ought to begin in the mat
ter of aiding the government. One
thing that is construed as furnishing
the basis for a liberal construction
in the settlers favor is that the act
in it's preamble roads. "In order to
encourage settlers to reclaim lands
that are otherwise unfit for cultivat-
ion, ETC."
Another important item in the case
is that the title to the lands passed
from the federal government to the
state with orders to issue patents to
the settlers, on the particular day in
January. the 18th, of which real es-
tate became taxable. The particular
time Of day for it to be in effect is
twelve o'clock noon, and when 1t is
shown what hour Of the day these
papers were executed, it may have a
bearing upon the decision as to the
payment Of taxes by the settler who
had made his proof and was waiting
for the title to pass to him.
The suit was tried before Judge
J. M. Stevens. Friday and Saturday.

Aside from bringing the dignity of
