DESERVING OF REPUBLICAN SUPPORT.

Bingham county has candidate for state senator on
the Republican ticket who should certainly receive the
support Of the followers Of Taft and his party because he
has shown his complete understanding of the present Re
publican situation
II realize that it is unwise for candidate to state in
detail the platform which he will in advance of the
meeting Of the Republican platform convention he says
in announcing his candidacy.
platform is supposed to represent particular poit
cal belief and this Bingham county Republican is
ainly wise in declining to state in advance what his
beliefs may be because of the great danger that such be-
es may be found to be the beliefs Of the party whose
candidate he hopes to becomel
As matter of fact, there is who say today
what the Republican party stands for and if any one
should undertake to do he could not feel confident that
any other man claiming to belong to that party would
agree with him.
Former Governor Gooding is hoping to the sup
port of enough of those who still cling to the Republican
party to nominate him for the United States senate
that ticket by declaring that Senator Borah is the only
leader the Repubcanspa party has, But even1n his own
there those who eer the idea of Borah being
Republican leader. Borah is wise," say these other
Republicans he knows he wrong two years ago and

HOW THEY FAVOR COMPETITION.

Considerable is still being said by that portion Of the
state press which constitutes nearly all the reactonary
element which is opposed to regulation OF pubic utilities
by the state and desires the repeal of the public utilities
law about the alleged elimination of competition by the
commission in it's refusal to authorize competing COM
panies enter the fields already occupied and compe-
tently served by existing companies.
There must be restoration of competition these
advocates cry land if the present law is not unconsttu
ona the law must be amended to prohibit the COM
mission from interfering with the odfashoned doctrine
of competition
Suppose a new corporation, such as the General
Electric company for instance in the electric business
should desire to enter field already occupied by small
non-trust concern; just what kind Of competition
would be establishes This would be the situation:
Application would be made, OF course, to the public
utilities commission to fix rates for these companies
Those would be fixed most necessarily at Identical
y the price for both companies How, then, could
the people of such community be benefited by reason OF
such competition seeing that the rates must be the same
for both companies?
Now, the rates having been established the
would begin contest for business. The inevitable
result would be that such business would have to
from the smaller and nonst concern already in exist
This concern most in this state at rate
is probably more than earning sufficient to keep 1t In
existence and when the big trust divides the
listing business with it, it begins to lose money The big
concern being big concern afford to lose money for
long period of time, because it has object in view
That object is the crushing of its nontus competitor
til it accompshes its purpose. 1t either buys out the
DID, non-trus competitor the old concern goes into
bankruptcy and is closed out
Now what becomes Of the cherished competition that
our specainterest newspapers camoring loudly
for? It is gone, and in place of the small concern often
locally owned one have the powerful trust
owned, controlled and operated from foreign state
When the reactionary press begins to advocate poll
cies IN behalf OF the people, it is well for the people to
member the ancient caution to beware the Greeks bear
ing gifts

Mrs Ten Eyck was before her mar
rage Miss Bertha Dederick of Albany.
She is the mother of one son, q preco-
cious boy Of nine. who Is called Deder-
lex. This name is also famous one.
Mrs Ten Eyck's father was Peter Kells
Dederiek, the inventor During his
lifetime Mr.. Dederick took out an
enormous number OF patents, most of
these being improved agricultural i'm
plements, but he is best known as the
inventor of the continuous haypress.
Those who knew him best recall him as
a man whose most striking character
istic was his modesty. Even Mrs. Ten
Eyck does not remember ever having
heard during her childhood the names
Of her fathers inventions, which even
then were known throughout Europe
and America.
Though the present season Is prac-
tically the first Mrs. Ten Eyck has
spent in Washington, she has made
some warm friends there. She has
her fathers aversion to ostentation in
any form. cares little for the more for
NAL aspects OF social life, but delights
in dispensing a genuine and informal
hospitality to her own and her hus-
bands friends. Consequently her home
Is known to a limited circle as one OF
the most agreeable in Washington.

gets back he surely WILL but for his being Repub
can leaderthat will do to tell those Others who like
Borah repentant and want to make easy return
This is not conjecture We are quoting remarks
actually made to by Republicans prominent locally.
Now from this well from other things it is evident
that the things that Borah believes not the things that
others, calling themselves Republicans believe.
So say this Bingham county candidate for senate
rial honors is wise in refusing to undertake to say what
his political beliefs just now because to do subjects
him to the tremendous risk of the discovery later that
he not Republican at all and does not hold to Repub
can doctrines to the greater humiliation Of
tracing his views and subscribing to those given to him
by his party leaders.

For years this particular dump pile
