AS SECRETARY WILSON SAYS.

Mr.. James Wilson, Secretary Of the
L. S. Department Of Agriculture. in a
recent speech at Bay City, Michigan,
took occasion to say that 1.-THE Payne
bill has been calamity, but what harm
has come of its enactment? The Re
public has advanced in all things that
make people great.
Here seems to be most ex.
traordinary confusion of mind. If the
Payne bill has been calamity, how
does it happen that the calamity has
done no harm? What are the signs Of
q calamity? Clearly they arc not
merely in imagination; but IA calamity.
Ia be properly so called must do some
damage Gf 10 harm has come of the
Payne bill then there surely should
be no disposition on the part of any
body 10 call il calamity. The Sccrc-
tsry in this tumble of incohercucc has
certainly struck a new line IN con
fusion of uticrancc.
But we should say that Secretary
Wilson is about the last man who
ought To say that the Payne bill has
done no harm; for it is by reason Of
the Payne bill that the Republican
PARTY received such Il crushing defeat
at the elections in 1870. That defeat
~ turn has thrown the party into con.
fusion, and has made the present cam
pagn one Of enormous difficulty. For.
if it had not been for that defeat Of
thc party in 1910 and the sentiment
reflected from the vicious Payne bill
which caused that defeat. there would
have been 70 division today in tho
Republican party Colonel Roosevelt
would have seen no opportunity 90
fight it as he has done, and there would
he The best possible prospect Of a
great victory for that party on Tues.
day next.
We trace the trouble in The Republi.
can party. therefore, directly TO the
Payne bill - enacted at tho special
session Of Congress IN the summer Of
1909. The stand-pattcis who refused
10 heed the sentiment Of he country.
and tD fulhl the promise Of The Ma
i'onal Republican platform of 1905 as
interpreted by President Taft. that the
tariff should be revised downward,
are the Persons who must directly bc
blamed for the disorganizaliou Of ihc
party.

THE PUGMIRE CANDIDACY

We notice that the Boise Capital
News, in making up ticket which it
recommends TO the voters of Idaho,
expressly ignores, among others, Mr..
Edward NJ Pugnire. a candidate for
Representative 10 Congress on tho
Democratic ticket IN that state. This
is, very likely. because Mr.. Pugmirc
has shown in his public record that he
rs not Il straight PARTY man, n man to
be depended upon TO follow his party =
declaration. AS proof Of this VIC will
riic little matter pf history.
Mr.. Pug'urc was in the Idaho State
Scuatc in 1900 when Mr.. Dubois was
the Democratic legislature; but Pug
miro, through personal or sectarian
prejudice against Dubois, refused 10
support Dubois, who was his party 5
candidate for the L. s. Senate. The
Democratic party pledged itself to Du-
bois IN It's state convention Mr.. Pug
mire was elected without repudiating
That part Of the platform of his party;
and vet. when il came TO the voting
for the man who had been nomi-
mated by his party for L, 81 Senator,
Pugmire refused to follow his party
and bolted the party nominee.
We hear that there is a considerable
degree Of opposition toward Mr.. Pug
mire on the part Of Democrats in
Idaho, because Of his untrustworthi-
ness as party man. 1t is not to be
wondered at that this should be SO, for
Mr.. Pugmire has given ample ground
for the suspicion Of his intidclity to
party pledges and party nominees.
There is, therefore, no particular
reason why Idaho Democrats should
vote for Mr.. Pugmire; and we feel
convinced that large numbers of them
will absolutely refuse to do so, and
they will be clearly justified in thus
boiling his nomination, since Pngmire
himself has set the example Of pre-.
clsely that kind Of bolt.
