ROBERT o. JONES.

The nomination Of Robert o. Jones
for representative in congress on the
republican ticket Is matter Of spe-
cial qualification to the people of Sho-
shone county, who have long recog-
nized his sterling qualities. He has
practically grown to manhood in this
county and IL a graduate Of the state
university at Moscow. He is therefore
an Idaho product and It is highly pro-
per that, having fitted himself for the
high position, he should be given the
opportunity to realize his ambition tu
represent his state in congress. What
ever Of success has come to Mr.. Jones
has been through his own efforts, and
this fact alone makes strong appeal
to the average American voter who
likes to help the man who helps him
self. The vote ne received in his home
county is the highest testimonial to
his standing among those who know
him best. and forerunner Of what he
will receive from the voters Of the
state in November.

WILSON AND A SECOND TERM.

The other day Vice President Mar
shall stated that President Wilson
would be a candidate for reelection in
1915 and that no other democrat need
apply for the place. It IL true that the
vice president frequently forgets that
he should be seen and not heard; that
he talks entirely too much and that he
says things sometimes that would bet
ter have been left unsaid, but for all
that, it is believed that what the vice
president says about President Wilson
and the second term Is spoken with
authority.
After the fragrant reputation Of the
Panama tolls plank in the democratic
platform, It Is not likely that President
Wilson will let little thing like a
platform pledge interfere with his am
bition to succeed himself for another
four year term In the White House.
But It Is well to refresh the memory
Of the people on the subject anyhow.
for there ID growing conviction that
a platform pledge IL as sacred as the
pledge Of an individual. Here Is what
the Baltimore platform, which was
written by Secretary Bryan and upon
which President Wilson was elected
says about the second term:
I'VE favor a single presidential term.
and to that end urge the adoption Of
an amendment to the constitution ma
king the president Of the United States
ineligible for reelection, and we
pledge the candidate Of this conven.
tion to that principle"

AlLsAiE's CONSOLATION.

The defeat Of Judge Ailshie for the
United States senate is relieved Of Its
sting by the fact that Burton L.
French was among those who also ran,
receiving q much smaller vote than
that received by Judge Ailshie. There
| Is no doubt that Judge Ailshie had a
real grievance against Congressman
French, and that he and his support
ers are justified In the satisfaction
they make no attempt to conceal over
the downfall Of French. The feeling
against French dates from the last
session Of the legislature. almost two
years ago. when Senator Brady was
elected. Judge Ailshie was also q
candidate for the senate at that time.
but French was not. However, he was
In receptive mood and had the Latah
county delegation absolutely under his
control. Judge Ailshie developed suf-
ficient strength to secure the election
with the Latah county vote and ap-
peals were made to Congressman
French to turn It to him. but French
declined to do SO. and Senator Brady
finally mustered enough strength to
secure the election. There was a
strong feeling at that time. independ-
ent of the Immediate supporters Of
Judge Ailshie. that the senatorship
should come to the north, and there Is
mo doubt that the selfish attitude Of
Mr.. French at that time cost him many
votes in the late primary. A man in
his position should be big enough to
rise above petty selfish considerations
when the interests Of the state or a
large section Of It are involved. His
retirement to private life at the end Of
the present session Of congress will
mot be regarded as a serious loss to
the state.

that comforting the right Of suffrage
upon them would not alter the politi-
cal situation in tina least, and that the
reform and moral uplift promised by
the advocates Of suffrage would not
saterialise. for the simple reason that
wives would almost invariably vote
the same az their husbands and thus
merely increase the number Of votes

comes Mrs. T. c. Hollingshead. presi.
dent Of the Columbian club at Boise.
and a prominent advocate Of the
emancipation Of women. who In effect
admits that the above contention ID
true. In commenting upon the re-
cent primary election, Mrs. Hollings-
head says:
1.-THE primary election was Q disap-
pointment. do not mean that It was
disappointing In every respect, but In
the number Of votes polled. especially
those Of the women, It certainly was
not what It should have been. II
seems to me the women are not inde-
pendent enough especially the married
ones. who are 50 apt to be guided by
what their husbands say"
There IL nothing more natural nor
desirable than that husband and wife
should be In perfect accord on all pol
itical questions and In the choice Of
candidates for political ONCE. This
does not mean that the wife should be
subservient to the political opinions Of
her husband. It simply means that in
politics, as well as in other affairs that
concern them, those whom God hal
Joined together" will naturally think
and act alike. II can not be otherwise
II the American home IL to maintain
its influence In shaping the destiny OF
the nation. In criticising the politica
attitude Of her sex, Mrs. Hollingshead
unwittingly pays high tribute te
American womanhood. and at thu
same time shows a failure to appreci.

thought and action on matters Of rea
moment which must exist between

SENATOR BRADY.

Upon the death Of Idaho's great cit
ixen and statesman, Senator Hepburn,
the people Of north Idaho felt that his
successor should be chosen from the
north. Two years ago when the cleo
ton OF q senator came up to the Legs
lature, the northern counties, as usual,
were unable to agree on candidate,
which made It possible for Senetar
Brady to secure the election. The
same situation In so far as a united
north IL concerned existed in the re-
cent primary. and in addition - this
there we're great many republicans
who felt that Senator Brady's splendid
work In the national capital during the
past Two years clearly entitled him 10
a full term in the senate. Without
yielding their contention In the Last
that one OF the senator's should as a
matter Of right come from the nor.h,
the republicans Of north Idaho will not
permit this feeling to interfere with
their support Of Senator Brady fer re-
Q ection. ON, the contrary. they rec.g-

GOVERNOR HAiNEs.

While M. r. Lewis made clean ana
aggressive fight for the republican
nomination for governor. and was rec
ognized in all parts OF the state as a
big and broad gauge man eminently
qualified for chief executive Of the
state. II in nevertheless not surprising
that Governor Haines received the
nomination by large majority. The
governors success does not In the least
reflect upon the character, qualifica-
tions and general fitness Of Mr.. Lewis
for the position, but rather empha-
sizes the conditions which confronted
him in the campaign which he nor no
other candidate could overcome.
The only really substantial argu-
ment in favor Of Mr.. Lewis as against
Governor Haines was that he was a
north Idaho man, but this lost Its force
in the presence Of the widespread
feeling that governor who has made
good in his first term Is entitled as
matter Of fairness to the nomination
Of his party for second term. Ana
Governor Haines has made good. In
his campaign two years ago he told
the taxpayers to take their tax receipts
to the polls with them. He meant by
this that II elected he would give his
carnes attention to Introduction OF
taxes in Idaho. and he has kept his
promise. He has not only given the
general subject Of taxation the most
careful investigation and has succeed
ed In making substantial reductions,
but he has evolved definite plans for
revising and amending the revenue
laws Of the state which he will recon-
mend to the legislature and which II
enacted into law will afford further
and greater relief. In addition to this
we believe the Haines administratio IN
has practiced rigid economy In the ad-
ministration Of the affairs Of the state,
and that the governor has kept his
promise to give the people thorough
business administration.
Governor Haines has made record
which entities him to second term,
and all elements Of the party should
and no doubt will rally to his support.
