Senator Borah on law enforce
ment: "To leave law unenforced,
to cultivate disregard for it's
obligations is but to fallow the
ground SO that in after years
there may be one law for the
poor and another for the rich.
To save their worthless lives the
McNamaras entered pleas of
guilty, insisting that they did it
all for principle and expect an as.
tonished world to accept their
whining apologies. In the hour
in which order shall be driven
from its. high place in the temple
of liberty and in which lawless-
ness and might shall come in it's
stead, in the fearful struggle to
follow, the first man to go to the
bottom to remain there will be
the man who tolls. There is an
other court record in which we
will in passing, notice also. Bound
up in many volumes you will find
the full record of two of the late
noted decisions, STANDARD Oil
and Tobacco Co. Trust) . 1t is
tale twice told, of selfishness
and greed, extortion and lawless-
ness. The plea of justification
is not unlike the plea of the
planters of dynamite, for al
though the acts are clearly in
violation of law and the rights
of the public, it is claimed, never
theless, that it was all done in
the interest of business growth
and industrial progress. But how
shall we excuse or long sympa-
thize with the man of influence
and position, of wealth mad pres
tige who still by word and deed
teaches disrespect for or defiance
of the lawY Does he not know
that it is useless to long expect
law and order in the common
walks of life when lawlessness
reigns supreme in the upper ARR"
Mr.. Borah said he had no sympa-
thy with the prosecution of bus
mess men who erred unknowing-
ly, But, he said: 81 refer to
that class who sit in their offices
with trained lawyers and plan
how they may evade the law and
Its penalties. If a man lies in

daily the Moscow Star Mirror is
now issuing a creditable six-days-

the foundation for a heated per-

The county commissioners of
the state of Idaho in convention
assembled at the state capital
last week undertook to regulate
almost everything within the
range Of their casual knowledge
excepting the sun, moon and
stars and possibly few other
planetary systems. Remarkable
as it may seem, while attending
to almost everybody else's bus
mess, they did not forget to put
in boost for themselves by de-
handing six years tenure of
office for the county commission
ers with adequate salary" at the
same time declaring for econ
omy in the management of coun-
ty business. They ripped up
Gov. Hawley s proposed new tax
system, slashed the exemption
clause once and half in two,
and poured cold water on the
idea of tax commission. How
ever, they made one good sug-
gestion at least in advocating
the passage of law forcing fam
lily deserters to work on the coun-
ty highways, the earnings there
from to be turned into the fam
lily pocketbook.

wait for his adversary and Stays
him, unwarned, will it be a de-
Tense for his lawyer to say to the
court that his client has always
had difficulty in distinguishing
between voluntary, and involun-
tary manslaughterY If half the
energy and ingenuity of our bus
mess men had been put forth to
perfect the law, that has been
expended to successfully violate
it and make it worthless, we
would long ago have had a law
which would protect all legiti-
mate business and make all bus
mess legitimate.

The state convention of county
which held forth
last week in Boise, among other
measures advocated, demanded
"the right to send out, of the
state for printing whenever that
could not be secured cheaply and
reasonably within the state it
self" They should have made
themselves conversant with the
present law on that subject, which
provides that the county or state
shall not be charged in excess of
the price demanded of private
individuals, and that the work
performed must be satisfactory
to the officer ordering same,
otherwise the officer shall have
power to have such work done
outside of said county or state,
and avoided this public exhibit
ton of ignorance Of a subject on
which they demand legislation.
Unless they wish to be under
stood as demanding that the
county and state shall have their
work done at less price than
the individual citizen has to pay
and If SO they should have car
RED their contention to a logical
conclusion and demanded the es-
adjustment Of penitentiary
printing plant at Boise that they
might get cheap convict work
done. 1t has become quite fad
among officers who are drawing
salaries from the public crib to
peddle this twaddle about prac-
ticing economy in the interest Of
the taxpayer, and trying to apply
1t to all other avenues OF expen-
diture but their own salaries,
which they at the same time have
the unadulterated gall to demand
to have increased. That is the
course pursued by this bunch of
commissioners, who went en- re-
cord as favOring an increase Of
their own salaries to $500 per
year and extending the term of
office to six years-a sinecure,
in deed-while protesting against
paying the newspaper rates pre-
scribed by law. Ii this is not
hypocrisy unmasked, you name
it what it deserves. Who ever
heard OF country publisher get
ting rich in this land Of equal
rights and unrestrained freedom
And yet he is the first one to be-
gin economizing on by requir-
ing him to enter into ruinous com
petitive bidding with his brother
publisher, and cut prices to a
starvation point, and far below
what such work can be got for
outside the state, or else the work
Is to be taken away from him and
given to big printing syndicates
IN another state, where they have
grown rich through the aid rem.
dered them by the work of just
such bunch of chumps as those
who recently congregated in
Boise. If the publishers of Idaho
had the scrapping qualities of
bunch of sick kittens, they would
mark officials of this character
and show them up for what they
are, regardless of consequences.
No honest man asks for more
than a square DEAL" and if he
is not ready to demand that and
then fight for it, he is not worthy
the name "man."

BOTTLE IN OCEAN
NETSCREN 500
Vessel Picks Up First One of
Number Put AfIoat to Ad-
vertiSe Texas Town.

GALVESTON. TEXAS, Sept. IS
The Factory association Of Wichita
Falls, Texas, is responsible for a unique
competition which was made known
here today on the arrival from Hon
duras Of the schooner Two Sisters of
Panay. Captain Morgan, Of that boat
wired the Factory association of Wich-
ita Falls and was wired the sum Of
800 in return. This is the story
While still in the Yucatan channel
one of the sailors on the Two Sisters
Of Panay sighted a large bottle floating
on the surface of the gulf waters
Thinking it might be a communication
from lost ship, it was picked up after
much trouble and was found to contain
miniature automobile and a mimeo-
graph statement as follows:
The Factory association of Wichita
Falls, at a recent banquet. decided
upon a unique contest. e., to place
small models of different articles man
ufactured here in bottles specially
fashioned by a local bottle factory,
these bottles to be cast upon the waters
of the Wichita river and 500 to be
paid to the man picking up a bottle
first the purse to be furnished by the
nineteen factory men whose bottles are
overlooked The finder of this bottle
should wire the Wichita Falls Factory
association, and, provided it be the
first notice. 800 will be paid"
Captain Morgan, on his arrival at
Galveston, sent the telegram and
proved to be the first discoverer. The
bottle had hoated so miles in the Wich-
tia river, $50 miles in Red river, 200
miles down the Mississippi and over
500 miles into the gulf well into the
Strait Of Yucatan.
Captain Morgan bought refresh
ments for every sailor on the Two Sis
ters of Panay, as we'll as for everybody
else who happened to be in reach after
he received his 500.
