October - Is being observed in
many states in commemoration OF the
discovery Of America by Christopher
Columbus. In the cities Of many
states special celebrations are held on
this day, elaborate programs being
prepared and followed out. This was
mot true with respect to Boise. In

words Alright But this Is the way It
seems to me. One Is not to blame for
the chain Of events which follows some
act except insofar as one is to blame
because the act itself was wrong.
I do not think that one can claim
credit for all the events that follow
ones act except insofar as the act IT.
self was creditable, and SO ! think the
converse holds true. For instance. II
this woman had persuaded her cousin
to stay another day and the railroad
wreck had occurred on the day on
which she had intended to go home,
I do not think the woman would have
sins life. Conversely she does not have
reason to accuse herself OF being to
blame for the girls death.
In this case there was neither praise
nor blame attaching to the act itself.
But suppose that the woman had for
purely selfish reasons unfairly tricked
her cousin into staying and the girl
had been killed. Then I think the
woman would have been to blame for
her deceit and selflshness not for the
tragedy. And suppose on the other
hand she had made some special sac
rifice or effort to make 1t possible for
her guest to stay and the accident
had been avoided. then I think she
would have deserved credit for the
sacrifice and effort but not for saw
ing the girls life.
If we were to blame or credit our
selves with all the long series of
events which often follow our simplest
act, we should certainly have a hard
time keeping score.
We must inevitably feel regret
when something unfortunate happens
which would not have happened If
we had acted differently, but IL our
act was not intrinsically wrong I do
not think we ever need feel remorse.

noteworthy fact that John M. Haines has, for long

This will be startling news to ali Boise people who

Y interesting question regarding
the ethics Of responsibility has
been put to me by one Of my
letter friends. and because It


is not only an interesting
question, but also one which is con-
tinuauy being raised In some form,
Of 1t in this column.
This is my letter friends story. A
friend Of hers had dearly loved
cousin visiting her. The cousin had
planned to return homo on a certain
day. Her hostess was SO loath to have
her 60 that she urged her to stay an
other day. The cousin at first pro-
tested vigorously, but finally yielded
rather against her better judgment,
and put off her return until the next
day. On that day there was a ter
rible train wreck and the girl was
killed in 1t.
And now my friend is almost in
sane with grief" writes my corre-
she Is tortured by remorse. She says
she was to blame for her Cousins
death because II she haL only let her
go when she wanted to, she would
have reached home safely. / tell her
that is all nonsense but she won't lis
ten to me. She is making herself sick
over 1t. What do you Think" e.
What do I think? Well, most
heartily agree with my correspondent
that her friends attitude is all nom
sense. OF course. 1t Is inevitable that
she should feel regret. but l don't think
1t Is a case for remorse at all.

the special and corporate interests represented here
by the Johnsons the Cintons, the Fletchers the Cum
nnghams, the Grnbaums, speaking for the lead trust
the wool trust the timber trust the beet sugar trust the

for PRESIDENT At this rate of advancement the

what century this is before the next one expires.
The further absurdity of the supreme courts con-
strcton of the law is shown in the fact that it has held
that though 100000 voters of the state should ask
that the Of four be printed the ballot for
presidential electors it not be done but if three
four two dozen men, styling themselves the state

machines, file such request, it must be done.

HOW EASY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN.

The supreme court of the state clearly failed to
prehend the law which interpreted to prevent the
printing of the Roosevelt electors upon the ballot
The court correctly says, There is provision in the
primary law for the nomination OF presidential electors
The court then proceeds and very properly too we be-
eve to make way by which may be done out of the
provision thrown in by the legislature primarily for the
purpose providing for the nomination of constables and
justices of the peace In doing this the court had to con-
srue the law little different from it's plain and nten
tional provisions but believe that court OF equity
trying find way to do justice it did perfectly right in
finding method whereby those who wish to vote for Taft
and for Wilson may do
But where the court painfully failed to construe the
law properly but went out of it's way to place miscon
srction upon in order to keep the Roosevelt electors
off the ballot in reference to section 1885, which pro-
vides that candidates for pubc Office may be nom
mated by petition.
The all through it's decision refers to this section
as one relating to the nomination of estate Offices Any
reader of the section will note that provides the
for the nomination of publc Offices" The only place
where the words Estate Office is used in the section is
that where the section specifies the number of signatures
required upon petition for the nomination of "pubic
Offices It there says that where the nomination is for
Estate Office the petition shall contain 300 names;
where for district office office smaller than for
state $50 names for county office so Names and for
township ward or precinct office, 10 names.
Now ought to be clear to any reader Of that section
that the legislature in using those words meant just the
it had sad "or office to be voted for by the
electors of the whole state 300 for office to be
voted for the electors of district of the
state including two countless $50 Names for
office to be voted for by the electors of county, so Names
and for office be voted for by the electors of
ship, ward or precinct, 10 votes"
By SUCH A CONSTRUCTIONS, WHICH WOULD
HAVE DONE NO VIOLENCE TO ANY LAWS OR ANY
CONDITIONS THE SUPREME COURT WOULD
HAVE BEEN FORCED TO HAVE PRINTED ON THE
BALLOT THE NAMES OF THE ROOSEVELT ELEC.
TORS. Such construction would have done less VIC
lence, matter of fact to the actual weknown condi
tons, than the made by the court in constituting that
the state central committees of the two old parties may
nominate presidential electors.
In holding to the LITERAL strained construc-
ton OF the words estate office in designating how Pc
tion shall be gotten up in order to file nomination for
apublic Office the court gave it's approval to the plan
OF the Republican state central committee, the Republ
can state candidates and the supporters Of the Republican
machine to dsfranchse very large portion of the people
of the statesuch large portion in opinion that it
constitutes clear majority ALL
