Theodore Roosevelt has announced
his willingness to accept the Republi-
can nomination for the presidency if
it be rendered him. At last the am
billions of his mind overcame the pa
triotis,n Of his heart He has not
the force of character, the breadth of
mind. the depth of ptriotism. to lay
aside temptation. He wanted to
break the precedent. to smash tradi-
ton that future generation might
point to him above Washington and
Jefferson, Grant and others. 1t is
not a noble ambition but the ambi-
tons of such men are seldom noble.
The Tribune has never for one mo-
ment thought he would do otherwise.
There never were any doubts in our
mind of his ultimate conclusion.
So far as The Tribune is concerned
we welcome Theodore Roosevelt as
a candidate. 1t is just as we'll that
the traditions of the presidency be
put to the test now. If the American
people are ready for the first step
it will not be long before they are
ready for the last. There is no post
ponment of the issue.
So far as The Tribune is CONCERNED
it will support President Taft to the
best of its ability. If Roosevelt is
nominated at the convention it will
support the Democratic nominee. We
believe that Roosevelt's nomination
would create a condition that would
force every patriot who has at heart
the welfare of his country to lay aside
his party principles to deal with an
emergency. However, there is no
danger of Roosevelt getting the NOM
ination. He will not stand a ghost
of show. No one can come before
the people for the nomination for
president simply because he wants to
get it. Principles of government are
still a necessity in the candidacy OF
any man. Principles Roosevelt has
not.

FRUIT INSPECTORS
ARE GETTING BUSY.

Deputy Fruit Inspector Ed Meek is
busily engaged in getting ready to
see that the orchards of this section
are sprayed this year. He informs
The Tribune that State Inspector J.
U. Mcpherson has given out the infor-
nation that orchards must be thor
oughly fumigated this year. The state
Office is notifying the people and Mr..
Meek is reminding them that they
have been notified. In regard to what
will happen in case orchardists fail
to follow instructions Mr.. Mcpherson
says:
"Since the first of February, the
State Horticultural Department has
been busy throughout the whole state
inspecting orchards and trees, and
wherever infection is found that is
detrimental to the industry, the own
ers or persons in charge, are being
notified to eradicate the same. The
work is being started at an early date
this year, and the entire state will be
covered, and all parties will be mott
fed in writing if any infection is
found upon their trees. This work is
being done by the deputies in each OF
the inspection districts of the state.
The Department finds from expert
ence in its last years work that most
of the people are willing and glad to
comply with the law which requires
them to eradicate pests and fungus
diseases found upon their trees.
AT this time, the deputy inspectors
are serving written notices, giving the
parties where infection is found,
ample time in which to have their
trees sprayed, the time limit being
from thirty to sixty days, according
to the size and condition of the or
chard. l wish, however, to make the
matter of serving notices plain, that
there will only be one notice served
upon each party and at the end of
the limit of the notice, at which time
the deputy inspector will re-canvass
the district and see if the same has
been complied with, and if the same
has not been complied with, the own
err or person in charge will be sub
ject to arrest and fine for failing to
comply. The Department does not
wish to be hard on anyone in the en-
forcement of the Horticultural law,
but the law which requires the diff
ferent insect pests to be eradicated
will be enforced, and the department
wishes to take the liberty at this time
to notify the public in regard to this
matter"

NEWSPAPER MAN GOES TO
NORTHERN PACIFIC r. R

c. E. Arney, we'll known in Idaho
as journalist and politician, has
been made western immigration and
industrial agent Of the Northern Pa
cific railroad with headquarters at
Spokane. The company intends to de-
vote more attention to the northwest
in the future than it has in the past
and even in the past it has taken a
great interest and expended great
deal of money in advertising the coun-
try along the line of its railway.
The Northern Pacific could hardly
have found better man for the posi-
ton. He is we'll known; is good
mixer; and a writer of considerable
ability. We venture the assertion
that Mr.. Arney will make record in
the services of the Northern Pacific.
In speaking of his work the railroad
company says:
"Mr. Arney is well-known newspa-
per man, and is thoroughly acquaint-
ed with the resources and possibilities
of the states in which he is to labor.
He has lived in these states for twen-
ty-hve years, and has wide knowl-
edge of general conditions in the ter
ritory.
"On March LIST he will open head
quarters in Spokane, and will active
ly engage in the work outlined-the
settlement and industrial development
of the country along the Northern Pa
cifc. The Northern Pacific greatly
,res to secure the very best infor-
nation first hand, that will beN of the
greatest value to the people who are
eager to migrate to the mountain and
Pacific states"

The Jews Are All Coming.

A prediction that the next century
will see nearly all Of the ll.OOO.UO
Jews of the whole world on American
soil was made by Sheriff Julius Har-
burger in an address before delegates
from all parts Of the country gathered
for the annual meeting OF the exeeu-
tive committee of the Free Sons OF
Israel, at New York this week.
In reviewing the history OF the or
DIR since its inception in lS49. Sheriff
Hamburger spoke of its benefactions
and its remarkable resources.
There were but 5000 Jews in the
United States when the first census
was taken" he said. land today there
are 100000"
Every land which has prosecuted
the Jews, he said. had fallen into de-
cay. and he commended the action
taken by the United States in abrogat
ing its treaty with Russia.

An accident which might have been
serious occurred Tuesday evening
when a small boy placed rock upon
the Interurban tracks just as the $50

the car just as it struck the rock, the

After celebrating on the case only
IS minutes, the jury in the federal
court at Boise Wednesday afternoon
returned a verdict of guilty against
Lloyd Griffin, charged with the trans
portation of a woman from one state
to another for immoral purposes. A
few minutes later Judge Frank S.
Dietrich had sentenced him to Is
months in the federal penitentiary at
Fort Leavenworth.
The government brought out
through the course of the trial that
Griffin had become intimate with
Alice Bisset of Nampa and that after
he had gone on to Walla Walla, he
had written to her to come on to
him there. 1t was testified that she
forged her foster fathers name to
a $50 check to get the money and
that she made her way to him in
Walla Walla. Testimony introduced
by the government showed that
Griffin tried to carry out the regular
program of a real white SLAYER" but
that the girl was rescued and brought
back to her home. She was finally
brought to the Children's Home Find
ing society in Boise where she has
been for several months.
Griffin has worked in Nampa and
is known there where he has always
borne a good reputation, according to
witnesses for the defense. He is Fl
years of age. Though the girl admit
ted that she had forged the check, her
foster father promptly paid it and no
further steps will be taken by anybody
to punish her for that offense against
the state law.
Youth Saved Him.
In giving Griffin the sentence. the
court declared that he was influenced
simply out of consideration for his
youth, The defendant made a state
ment to the court in which he blamed
the girl for the whole affair and charg-
ed the government with picking him
out of several with whom she had
been acquainted because he was the
youngest.
"Your youth is tn only thing that
appeals to me for clemency," said the
court. "The evidence that has been
introduced here shows conclusively
that you attempted to make the girl
commercial proposition. Men ev-
erywhere regard that as the lowest
depths of immortality to which hui
man being can sink. have been as
tonished through the entire course OF
this trial that one so young could &c
so far in apparently so short time. y

Great Commoner Talks to People of

Congratulates People Upon Pro-
gress and Development of State.

Distinguished men try to get
through Caldwell quite frequently
without stopping. Not one of them sue
ceeds. President Taft tried it and
failed. Hon. William Jennings Bryan
tried it Wednesday afternoon and
failed. He just had to stop
Mr.. Bryan was making a tour of
the northwest for the purpose of dis
cussing the political situation with
leading Democrats. Wednesday at
ternoon he addressed large gather
ing at Boise. The same afternoon he
spoke to several hundred people who
had gathered at the depot to meet the
west bound pony; they having heard
that Mr.. Bryan was aboard the train.
He appeared from the door of the bag
gage car and was received with gen.
erous applause. He spoke only few
minutes but those who were present
were we'll pleased.
Mr. Bryan said he commenced COM
ing to Idaho about Is years ago and
with every visit he noted great de-
velopment and improvement. He
congratulated the people upon the
progress they had made in irrigation,
but said: II am not in the northwest
for the purpose of inspecting irriga-
ton projects. l am here to canvass
the political situation with Democrats
and those who ought to be Democrats.
l was greatly pleased few days ago
to read Col. Roosevelfs announce
ment that he was candidate for the
third time. 1t places him in the same
position that / was three years ago.
However, / am opposed to the third
term whether it be for Republican or
Democrat. Three years ago l did not
believe President Taft suitable can
didate. Roosevelt agrees with me to-
day. If we only had dictagraph III
the White House we would know
Mr.. Taft's opinion of Roosevelt. He
probably thinks him an undesirable
candidate. agree with them both"
Owing to the fact that the train
stopped in Caldwell but a few min
utes The Tribune representative did
not get an extended interview with
Col Bryan. Indeed to be honest with
the reader we will have to admit that
our interview was more by inference
than direct statement. We gather
from the looks of Col Bryan, and in
terviews given out elsewhere, that the
Colonel does not consider himself
the strongest candidate in the party.
Owing to the fact that DR.. Woodrow
Wilson has reformed the Nebraskan
looks kindly on him, as we'll as upon
Hon. Champ Clark. At the present
time Mr.. Bryan is not working in the
interests of any particular candidate.
He is simply looking over the general
situation; ascertaining the sentiment
of the party; and promoting the peace
an dgood will of every one.

Commission Form Wins.

The commission form Of govern
ment will be adopted by Boise. At
the recent election the advocates OF
the change won a great victory. The
vote was not as heavy as was anti
cipated in consideration of the fact
that a hard. bitter fight was made by
either side. The vote indicates
that q great many people were indif-
ferent That is one trouble with gov
eminent in this country. Too often
the people are Indifferent. So long
as they are not Immediately affected
they pay little attention to the gov
eminent Of their city. state or coun-
ty. A temporary raise Of few cents
on the hundred dollars in taxes will
create more agitation than a funda-
mental change in the system OF gov
eminent. This seems to have been
the case at Boise. Those who did not
vote at the election have no complaint
coming. The opportunity was theirs
and they should have taken advantage
Of it.
The experience Of Boise under the
commission form will be eagerly
awaited by other municipalities in the
state. The Tribune has never been
able to convince itself that govern
ment by commissioners would in and
of itself make much difference to the
city. However we may be mistaken.
Il has always seemed to US that the
people get about the kind OF govern
ment they deserve. II they are In
terested in government; see that good
clean men are nominated for the dit
ferent Offices; watch those officers
after they are elected; they are very
apt to have good government. In
difference on the part OF the people
breeds contempt for their rights and
welfare. The responsibility can.
not be shifted no matter what
the form or system OF govern
ment. We are convinced that nc
great harm will result to Boise by
the change. The commissioners al
irst will jeaiously guard the rights Of
the public and promote the welfare

CHAPTER xxxv.
Mr.. and Mrs. Little Jimmie.

Mr.. and Mrs. Little Jimmie.
Mrs. Sammy Whitcomb had longed
for the sweet privilege of squaring
matters with Mrs. Jimmie Wellington.
Sneers and back-biting, shrugs and
shudders of contempt were poor COM
pensation for the ever-vivid fact that
Mrs. Wellington had proved attractive
to her Sammy while Mrs. yelling
tons Jimmie never looked at Mrs.
Whitcomb. Or If he did, his eyes had
been SO blurred that he had seen two
of her-and avoided both.
Yesterday she had overheard jim
nile vow sobriety. Today his shining
morning face showed that he had
kept his word. She could hardly wait
to begin the Irritation which, she
trusted, would render Mrs. Wellington
helplessly furious for six long Reno
months.
The Divorce Drummer interposed
and held Jimmie prisoner for time,
but as soon as Mr.. Baumann released
him. Mrs. Whitcomb apprehended
MIN. With smile that beckoned and
with eyes that went out like far-cast
fshhooks, she drew Leviathan into
her net.
She reeled him in and he plounced
in the seat opposite. What she took
for bashfulness was reluctance. To
add the last charm to her success,
Mrs. Wellington arrived to see it,
Mrs. Whitcomb saw the lonely Ashton
rise and offer her the seat facing him.
Mrs. Wellington took 1t and sat down
with the back of her head so close to
the back of Mr.. Wellington's head
that the feather In her hat tickled his
neck.
Jimmie Wellington had seen his
wife pass by. To his sober eyes she
was fine sight as she moved up the
aisle In his alcohol-emancipated
mind the keen sense OF wrong en-
dured that bad driven him forth to
Reno began 10 lose it's edge. His own
soul appealed from Jimmie drunk to
Jimmie sober The appellate judge
began to reverse the lower courts de-
cision. point by point
He felt a sudden recrudescence OF
jealousy as he heard Ashton's voice
unctuously, fiirtatiously Offering his
wife hospitality. He wanted to trounce
Ashton. But what right had he to
defend from gallantry the woman he
was about to forswear before the
world? Jimmie's soul was In turmoil.
