, MR.. WILSON AND HIS JOB.

Thomas Woodrow Wilson has cross
ed the sea and is beginning to realize
that the ocean is beyond. Elected
president by an overwhelming vote, he
faces problems Of greatest weight and
he will be indeed a big man If he
proves equal to their solution. Prac-
tice must be made to correspond to
theory, and theory to practice, If he
makes good 1t is not to be supposed
that ne is so foolish as to belivee that
he will satisfy all the people, or even
a majority Of them, in discharging the
duties Of his high office. His position
is less enviable than that of any presi-
dent elected since the civil war period
OF United States history.
The first and one of the most i'm
portant duties that devolves upon Mr.
Wilson will be the selection of his cab
met. Much of the success or failure
OF his administration depends upon
the men who advise him, and who
control the departments of the govern
ment. who they will be can only be
guessed at, for Mr.. Wilson doesn't
know He has been busy trying to
catch the hare, and having caught It,,
probably feels that he should take
plenty Of time In studying what to do
with IT. For this purpose he is going
into retirement for a season. but VIII

nuence to keep the party intact until
the test is made again. and the people
are satisfied once more that protection
is necessary to the prosperity Of not
only the Gem state. but the entire
United States.
As to the election in the county. II
was victory for the republicans in
a greater measure than the most san
guine had hoped for. There Is no rea-
son why, two years from now, every
county office can not be filled by re-
publican. 1t Is the duty of every man
and woman in the party to begin i'm
mediately the organization and plan
ming essential to that end. Hereafter
there will be no places left on the tick
ct until late day. There will be nc
democrats elected to Office by republic
cans. It Is hardly possible, and GER
tainly not probable that the party In
the nation will ever again be divided
but, If 1t should be, the republicans o.
Shoshone county will be found ever
more solidly united than they were
this year, and as loyal to their own in
terests and the best interests of the
country at large as they were in the
campaign just closed.

NEWSPAPERS As A FACTOR.

Charles G.. Sumner, who for time
has been identified with the business
enterprises of former Governor James
H. Brady, and who Is manager of the
press bureau for the republican state
central committee, declared last night
In commenting on the great republi-
can victory just won In the state that
the republican newspapers in the state
have been one of the most potent fac
tors in the accomplishment Of the
very gratifying result.
In speaking Of their loyal service he
said:
Nov that the battle is ended and
the victory is won, desire to empha-
size my appreciation of the very eff
fective work which the republican pa
pers of the state have rendered the
party and the state central committee
in this campaign. Their space and
their most loyal and relentless efforts
have been given our party without
price or persuasion. Loyalty they have
battled with us for party victory, and
too much credit can not be given them
for their very effective service. I
deeply appreciate their loyal work and
I can not say too much to their credit.
Indeed, their efforts have proven one
of the most potent factors in the
achievement Of the great victory we
have scored, and desire, on behalf
of the committee, to extend sincere
thanks to them. The republican party
OF Idaho is indeed fortunate in having
such loyal newspapers and their great
work should not be forgotten"

CONSIDERING NINE TAXATION.

Conference Of mine owners and state
officials in Arizona upon proper and
reasonable basis of taxation of mines
is expected to result In the prepare
ton of bill to be submitted to the
tax commission for introduction at the
next session Of the legislature Taxa
ton of the mining industry is often
heavy and In California mining cor
porations are being obliged to pay a
county tax, state franchise tax. state
license tax and Federal corporation
tax profit tax, which. together with
the necessary insurance often amounts
to as much as per cent of the as
sessed valuation. This is a heavy
burden and though mining companies
are not DESTROYS of avoiding their just
contribution to the cost of govern
ment. 1t is only fair that the problem
should be studied with care to ascer-
tain whether they are not now obig-
ed to contribute more than their share

MINING MEN WILL BE ALERT.

The question of what the future
governmental policy in regard to the
tariff on lead and zinc, will occupy a
prominent place on the program at
the forthcoming convention Of the
American Mining Congress. which VIII
be held in Spokane during the week
of November 25-29 and a plan OF cam
paign will probably be outlined TO
meet the fight that will certainly be
waged at the next session Of con-
gress to place these two metals on the
free list.
In the brief presented by this or
ganization to the senate committee
during the hearings on the metal
schedule last summer, were a great
mass Of statistics, showing the differ
ence in wages paid and general living
conditions, between this country and
Mexico, the chief country to be bene-
fitted by the passage of the Nelson
BILL then under consideration by the
senate.
It was commended in the brief and
also by hundreds of producers, that to
remove or reduce the duty on these
two metals to any appreciate extent
would mean the closing down Of hun
dreds Of mines in the United States
and the consequent throwing out OF
employment Of thousands of men now
employed by these mines.
The vetoing of the bill by President
Taft simply postponed the matter I'M
til the next session of congress when
it will be brought up again and an
other effort made to pass 1t.
This question will undoubtedly
prove the incentive for large number
of mining men from the northwest to
attend the convention, as the disas-
trous results likely to follow the abol-
ishment of the tariff on these metals
would be felt with particular severity
in that part of the country.

CONSIDER THE GYMNASIUM.

When the subject Of gymnasium
for Wallace has been brought up for
consideration, as 1t has many times in
the past, some other subject, for the
time being overtowering in its import
ance, has invariably absorbed the at
tention that the importance of a
gymnasium deserves, and after lit
tie desultory discussion the matter
was dropped Perhaps to say 1t has
been each time postponed would be
more correct, for no opposition to the
proposal has ever been raised. This
fact, coupled with the fact that an or
ganized effort would undoubtedly re-
suit in the raising of ample funds, still
serves to keep hope alive in the
breasts of those who appreciate the
need Of place where the young men
Of the community and the young wo-
men as well might have the physical
training and secure the carefully d.
rected exercise that would be benefi
cial to them throughout their lives.
The last effort to revive interest in
the project was probably lessened. by
the excitement of the political cam
paign. This out Of the way, the time
seems opportune in which to renew
efforts, invoke the aid Of officials, min
ing men and others interested in the
welfare of the young-and get results

equipment calls for united and per-
sistent effort, and these, with plenty

fluke In 1910. when, through pique or
indifference, hundreds Of thousands Of
republicans remained away from the
polls while the senate remained re-
publican until yesterdays election. A
country of s6.00O,OO0 of people ought
not to grumble at an infliction OF the
democratic rule every 20 years. partic-
ularly as it ends just as soon as the
people get chance to hit that party
at the polls again. 1t Is safe to pre-
dict that President Wilson will lose
his democratic congress in the election
of 1914, as Cleveland did in 1894, and
that a general cleaning out OF the
democratic party from all branches Of
the government will take place IN
1916, as In 1895.

SELF DEFENSE is UNSUITABLE.

The Miner wants to say just few
words about the attack made In the
campaign by the democrats and the
vigorous reply 1t called forth, and
hopes that the unpleasant subject will
now be dropped and the incident for
gotten. Any other course would be
unwise. Republicans, democrats and
socialists who voted in this county are
citizens Of it, and are such from
choice. They Loyalty proclaim 1t as
the best county in the state and are
proud of it's record in every sense. In
all parties are to be found men and
women who deeply regret the closing
and most unpleasant feature OF the
campaign and it is only because The
Miner Is DESTROYS seeing the matter
presented in its true light, and to have
1t thoroughly understood that the sub
ject is here alluded to.
Whatever may have been said to the
contrary, the republican candidates
without a single exception waged
clean campaign. Their friends boosted
for them, but refrained absolutely
from knocking their opponents. This
policy was early agreed upon and was
faithfully adhered to- Many old-tim-
ers were heard to remark, up to very
few days before the election, that there
never had been cleaner campaign,
freer from mud-slinging and personal
attacks, in the history of the county.
It was the intention of the republic
cans to follow out this policy, and per-
sonalities would not have been indulg-
ed In had not the democratic central
committee seen fit to circulate SLAM
derous sheet, gotten out in Kootenai
county, in which the characters of re-
publican candidates were attacked and
such bold and untrue statements made
that reply was demanded in fairness
to all concerned And while they were
at 1t, the republicans thought 1t proper
and just to make the reply as emphat-
ic and complete as they knew how.
They did. 1t is freely admitted that
It was peach"
If the democratic brethren feel that.
the thing went further than was ne
cessary. and that their opponents hit
just little harder than their own first
blow called for, let them remember
that they began 1t. If they had re-
Trained from the attacks made In the
Kootenai county sheet there would
have been no reply.
The mud-slinging circular or paper
has no place in modern campaigns 1t
was a prominent feature Of the days
that are supposed to have been for
gotten, before the primary laws were
written and advances made in the
methods Of registering the peoples
choice for office. In this case 1t was
resurrected by old-time politicians,
manifestly, and 1t acted as BOOM
erang. The general result Of the cleo
tion is the most complete comment
that could be made upon 1t. There Is
little chance Of it's being resorted to in
future campaigns. The wisest party
is the one that selects the strongest
ticket stands on the soundest plat
forms and presents the claims of its
candidates to the people in fair,
open and above board way leaving
the voters to decide who are entitled
to become their servants.

o'NElL TRIAL BEGUN.

Interest in the trial of Bernard f..
O'Neil, former president Of the State
Bank of Commerce Of this city, which
was begun at Occur d'Alene Monday
morning, Is as great throughout the
state as it is in Shoshone county. Re-
ports of the trial as 1t proceeds will
be eagerly read and with mingled
feelings, according to the readers
views. 1t is no secret that there are
several gentlemen in Wallace who
would be nightly pleased If the genial
and big hearted Barney were to be
shelved for awhile and the shelving
could be accomplished without few
facts concerning themselves being
brought to light. Some Of the depos-
itors in the State Bank of Commerce
no doubt also entertain feelings of
prejudice against O'Neil, but as a
whole the community seems to feel
that the former president Of the closed
institution has been punished as much
as his acts of omission and commits
sion In connection with the failure de-
serve, and that II others who are as
deep in the mud as he Is in the mire-
If not deeper-are to go unpublished
and allowed to parade around in their
self supplied halos of righteousness, 1t
is time that the prosecution of O'Neil
be considered as little less than perse-
cution, and abandoned
The failure OF the bank will event
ually prove to be less disastrous than
at first was feared. The depositors
have received to date dividends
amounting to 60 per cent of their de-
posits and more will be paid. A GER
tain ambitious little clique opposed to
O'Neil politically have been rid Of his
presence and influence for couple of
years and for this period the receiver
has had a soft snap at $40 per day
and expenses. There is no disputing
his ability. or that he has looked after
the interests Of the depositors as well
as any one might. But the impression

A fact very clearly proven in last
