An Old Precedent Smashed.

Secretary of the interior Lane has
smashed a sixty year old precedent
at the request of Congressman Smith
Mr.. Smith was appointed Register of
land office at Boise by the president
in 1907 on the recommendation of
about a hundred of Idaho's leading
citizens, including the Idaho delega-
ton in Congress. Their letters were
filed in the archives of the Interior
Department along with thousands Of
similar endorsements of other feder-
al officials. Mr.. Smith desired to
have these papers returned to him
that he might preserve them for his
children as an heirloom and made a
formal application to Secretary Fish
er about year ago for them The sec
rotary replied that in 1853 an order
had been issued that no letters of
endorsement on which favorable ac-
ton had been taken could be return
ed and that he was unable to comply

When the lead schedule in the tar
if bill was reached in the House of
Representatives, Congressman Smith
endeavored to have the present rate
of duty retained, the Ways and
Means Committee having reduced the
duty from one and one half to one
half of one cent on lead bearing
ores. In the course of his remarks
Mr.. Smith submitted the following
reasons which we copy from the con-
gressional record, why the lead in
dustry in Idaho should have the
benefits of the protective tariff.
1--WE have in northern Idaho about
$4,000 people dependent directly or
indirectly on the operation of our
lead mines, which produce over 80
per cent of the supply of the United
States. Nearly 100000 yearly
goes to the railroads for freights in
transporting the products of the
mines and the mills, and merchan-
disc needed by the communities
which are sustained by this industry.
In addition, the wages of the miners,
supplies, rents, and so forth,
amount to nearly $1O,O00,OOO per
year. This industry has been built
up under the mines in operation,
there are a great many prospective
mines which are being developed at
great expense and this development
will be abandoned in many instan-

list closed the third days considera-
ton of the Underwood bill under the
five minute rule and the memorable
Democrats majority rejects every
amendment submitted by the Repub-
licans or Progressives with clock
like precision.
Speaking on the subject Represen-
tative French said:
Some of the schedules in which
Idaho is most interested have al
ready been reached, to-wit-the
lead and zinc schedules and the
others will be reached within few
days. Judging the future by the
past, have no doubt that the Demo-
crat majority will insist on the
schedules as reported in the bill by
the committee. This will mean 10
per cent advalorem duty on zinc
and a half cent per pound duty on
lead; sugar upon the free list in
three years wool upon the free list
at once.
II have repeatedly indicated my
belief in favor of tariff modification,
but the present bill is so revolution
airy that l fear it will prove most
embarrassing for the industries in
which Idaho is especially concerned.
mo protection whatever would
close nearly every lead and zinc
mine in the state and the meager
duty reported in the bill will un-
doubtedly limit production to the
best producing mines and check or
destroy mining development in Ida
no indefinitely.
1.-THE wool schedule should be
changed but free wool will work
serious hardship upon wool growers
in the state and affect most disas-
trously the farmers who are raising
alfalfa,--a crop that is immediate
ly paying upon newly irrigated lands
of southern Idaho.
"On the wool schedule | believe
the duties should be fixed upon the
specific basis with relation to the
clean content and based upon the re-
cent report of the Tariff Commiss-
ion.
''The tariff program that believe
would be wisest to follow might be
represented as follows:

can not understand how any man
who loves his country and who is in
terested in the happiness and well
fare of his neighbors could support
a measure which would place them
on par with the cheap labor OF
Mexico, who receive one-fourth of
the wages received by the miners in
Idaho.

meeting told the members of the diff
ferent Water Users Associations that
the greatest good could be accom-
plished by the Associations and the
Department of the Interior coming
in closer contact and knowing each
other better. He said he felt it was
the duty of every delegate present
to frankly state to the Secretary
and his representatives every COM
plant that it was deemed necessary
to make. Senator Rrady's long ex-
perience in irrigation work has made
him a useful member of these meet
ings.

with the request. Mr.. Smith made
a personal call on Secretary Lane re-
feiring to the musty old order which
the Secretary Immediately proceeded
to cancel stating that there was no
possible reason why these papers
should be retained in the files. His
action will probably result in gen.
eral clean up OF the old papers which
il is believed now must weigh several
tons and which are stored in the base
ment of the Interior department.

The following are resolutions
adopted at the annual convention of
the Columbia and Snake River Water
ways assication at Pendleton, Ore
gon, on April 18th, and wired to SEN
ator Brady by the Association, with
an earnest request for his support.
eve deprecate the widespread
propaganda manifestly carried on by
the great railway interests seeking
the notification of the law providing
for free tolls for American shipping
through the Panama canal. We be-
lieve the principle of American con-
troll of American enterprises built
upon American territory to be an
enviolate right which cannot in the
very nature of National sovereignty
be jeopardized by the simple treaty
rights entered into with any other
nation and therefore The claim that
the granting of free tolls to Ameri-
can shipping is violation of the
Hay, Pauncefoot treaty is self evil
dent sophistry equal rights to all
foreign nations as such in the use
of the Panama canal is all that in
justice and reason could be deman-
ded of the American nation.
I'VE believe the propaganda for
tolls for American shipping at the
Panama canal involves the principle
of tolls at all national canals and
government built waterways and is
purely in the interest of the corpor-
ate transportation enterprises of the
nation and subversive of the free
dom of waterways competition.
Therefore, be it hereby resolved that
this association strongly urge the
present American Congress and the
National Administration to sustain
the law adopted by the preceding
congress respecting tolls at the Pan
anna canal"
Senator Brady has visited the
president as also the chairman of the
inter-oceanic canals committee in
the interests of this legislation He
is strong believer in the Free Toll
bill as passed by the last congress,
and it is believed that on account of
his practical knowledge and expert
ence along this line he will WELD an
Influence when the matter comes be-
fore congress.

should within sixty days pass law

wool and cotton schedules so that
the duties would conform to the

"Second-The present congress
should within three or four months
rass law modifying the other
schedules in such respects as We may
have information from the fragmen-
tary reports of the commission and
from other data at hand. This mod
ification should be made with great
care.
"Third-The present Congress
should provide Immediately for a
non-partisan tariff commission and
announce to the country that tariff
schedules in the future shall be
amended from time to time upon the
basis of the Tariff boards report,
giving only a measure of protection
to our producers equaling the differ
ence in cost of production at home
and in foreign countries.
This program would mean i'm

Our Misunderstood" President.

The president evidently feels that he has been treated unhandsomely by the newspapers and magazines. Whn he made his Winona speech in defense of the tariff bill, they weren't at all considerate. Instead of throwing up their hats and giv- ing three cheers, they fused and were captious, and refused to find real revision downward in a revi- sion that was figured to amount to fraction of 1 per cent. Tn fact, they simply wouldn't take MT. Tafts word for it. -
 The worst of it was that the ex- pert economists came along with their elaborate investigations a few months later, and backed up what the newspapers and magazines had said.
 No wonder the president feels misunderstood" When he was a United States judge nobody used to question his statements so unfeel- ingly.-Kansas City Star.

AS TO SENATOR LUNDY.

Senator E. J. Lundy, during an of hand" speech in the senate Monday morning, took occasion to criticise the editor of The Arkansas Democrat, because this paper is supporting the candidacy of Gov ernor Joe T. Robinson for the United States Senate and is op- posed to useless primary election to select a successor to the late Jeff Davis.
 The Democrat is not concerned over the senator's remarks. They fell very flat and the resolution met the fate it deserved in the senate.
 The senator's display of talk was purely political pyrotechnics shot of for effect, and the gentleman is entitled to whatever opinions he may have of the editor.

 Chorus. I'll meet you at the portal Where angels come and go. Be faithful, ah, be faithful; It won't be long, you know. Dear mama, o dear mama, Your love was. warm and true. Cast all your cares on Jesus, Until he calls for you. He never will forsake you, Tho sorrows press you sore. He'll bring you to that city Where we shall part no more.
  And you, my precious sisters, Whose eyes are filled with tears Think of my home in glory, Beyond the rolling spheres. Be ready for His summons, Should it come soon or late; And l will hail you welcome, Hard by the golden gate. Dear brothers, I must leave you; Remember life is brief. I know my leaving pains you And fills your hearts with grief But I shall be with Jesus And those whe've gone before. o, brothers, will you meet me On that celestial shore? Farewell, my loved companions, l bid you all adieu. o, give your lives to Jesus, And be to duty true. Walk close beside the Master, Until your journeys o'er. He'll guide you through the valley And we shall meet once more.
