THE PRIMARY AND THE CAMPAIGN.


Of the states. The recent primary election in
New York brought out some criticism of the
plan, but it is interesting to see thai such a
competent observer as the New York Evening
Post believes the direct primary is effective
where the people take enough interest in po-
litieal affairs to get out and vote.
Commenting on recent primary results the
Literary Digest notes that the nominations of
Penrose for senator in Pennsylvania, Glynn
and Whitman for governor in New York and
Roger Sullivan for the senate in Illinois, have
raised some suspicious that the direct pri-
mary might not bring in the political nillen-
Num-
The Digest quotes the New York Evening
Post as saying:
''Cool-headeds advocates Of the direct primary
recognized all this from the beginning The disap-
pontment is only for those who dreamed that,
how. the direct primary would be device to give
automatically high-grade and independent candi-
dates. and 70 defeat the bosses and smash the ma

machine simply BY more machinery 4 given piece

in this we have an added evidence of
the new freedom which he has given
to the American people.
In enacting all these great measures
the President and congress had but
one aim in view, viz, the welfare Of
the people and of the whole people.
The foreign policy Of the President
has been so beneficient and humane
that today it meets the approval of
the entire world and no more do we
hear criticism of his policy of "watch-
full waiting.'' Great treaties have
been formulated and signed by twenty
six of the great powers of the world
that will at the close Of the present
war in Europe make it impossible to
60 through such a war as we witness
today in Europe.
The policy pursued by him in Mexi
co is most admirable, worked out with
out war with that stricken country,
also working lasting comfy and
friendship, not alone with Mexico but
with the other republics to the south
of us, and lasting peace and trade re-
lations between us ana them. Do not
such achievements as have here re-
lated merit your hearty approval, re-
gradless of any party9 And do they
not rise superior to the selfish mo-
tives of any party7 You must agree
with me that they do. And to approve
them you will do SO by voting the
democratic ticket
Such in brief are some of the points
made by Governor Hawley in his
speech Thursday night. At the close
many republicans came forward and
pledged him their most hearty sup
port.

IN MEMORIAM.

John Riley Addison was born in
Hamilton County, Illinois, August /,
1880. His parents were Elijah Adki-
son and Mary Eccles Addison and he
was the eldest of ten children. While
yet boy his parents moved to Buck
land, Missouri and later to Dubuque,
Iowa. In 1862 the family emigrated
to California and in 1865 removed to
Oregon. Forty three years ago in
August this sturdy Scotch Irish family
came to Camas Pairie and have since
been factors in its social, educational,
political and moral development.
John R. Addison, his father amt
brothers took an important part in the
Nez Perez Indian war of 1877 John
Addison never claimed his just deserts
for his actions during those trying
times but his pioneer friends are not
slow to name him as knowing no fear
in the face of a superior foe and as
man who never deserted his friends in
the time of peril. His knowledge of
the country and his GOODNESS made him
invaluable as a scout, first for minor
detachment of troops and later for
General 0. o. Towards main body of
soldiers. He was in many engagements
but the one which showed his true
metal the best was the daring rescue
by eight men of the Norton family
had been surrounded on the prairie;
Norton mortally wounded, Mrs. Norton
wounded and the party at the mercy of
the Indians. The eight men who rode
out of Grangeville that morning to the
relief of the wounded in the fate of
certain death were George Hashagen,
f. A. Door, Charles Rice, Frank Fem,
]. Crooks, Douglas Adkison. James
Addison and John r. Adkison yet re-
main to answer the final bugle call.
The service performed by these heroic
eight shall not be forgotten as long as
the world recognizes courage and
honor, and John r. Addison was one of
those who covered the retreat in a
hazardous running fight with hundreds
of Indians.
On September 7, 1879, he was
married with Harriet s. Brown, daugh-
ter of Hon. II. G. Brown of Elkton,
Oregon, and niece of Hon. L. p. Brown
of Mt. Idaho. Shortly after they re-
moved to his homestead southwest of
town where six children were born and
which has been his home until the hour
of his death. The cause of the death
at the Sacred Heart hospital in Spo-
kane was cancer of the stomach after
an operation.
He. was three times nominated to
the state legislature and served jim

Legislature where he distinguished him

JAMES H. HAwLEY HERE THURS
DAY EVENING.
Continued from page ~


In this patriotic spirit the democrats
of Idaho have dropped all personal diff
ferences for the general good.
In this spirit they fought out their
differences in convention and at the
close of the battle accepted their plat
form as the expressed wish of the
party.
In this spirit they fought for their
favorite candidates IN the primary
campaign, and when the votes were
counted accepted the verdict as fair
and final.
John F. Nugent, after his defeat in
the primary, set the pace for his party
associates by his cheerful acceptance Of
the result and his hearty tender Of sup
port to James H .Hawley, the nominee
for the United States senate. In quick
response and in the same spirit Brazil
Ia W. Clark, defeated candidate for
governor, presided, in his home town,
over the fine reception given to M.
Alexander, the successful candidate,
and in his prompt offer of support in
the campaign.
All down the line men have differed
radically in other campaigns are now
working hand in hand for the success
of the party.
With commendable zeal and by un-
animous vote the chosen representa-
tives from the various counties met at
the state capital, placed Joseph T.
Pence in command for the campaign,
elected j. P. Pope secretary and limo
thy Regain treasurer. All this was done
without friction, in the most harmoni-
GUS committee meeting ever held in the
state
Good results were quick to flow from
this first expression of party harmony.
Letters and messages of commentator
came in from all sides. Not day was
lost in launching the campaign. Head
quarters, splendid suite of rooms on
the first floor Of the Overland build
ing, the best known in the city, were
thrown open; the organization was
completed; the itineraries of the lead
ing candidates were made out, and
plans blocked out for the intelligent
presentation of the issues to the voters
of the state.
Chairman Pence and Secretary Pope
have taken personal charge of head
quarters and are devoting their time
to the campaign. Assisted by an able
corps of workers they will undertake
TO build up and strengthen the organi-
cation in every county, and they will
see to it that the right kind of litera-
ture is placed in the hands of the
voters. :.
In all their plans the democratic
leaders propose to appeal to the intel
hgence and the sense of fair play of
the voters. Tn this way they hope to
overcome the tremendous campaign
fnnd and machine on which the oppo-
sltlon will rely for success. Good
speakers are to be sent into every COM
hunlty by the democrats. Good 1itera-
rnre is to be spread broadcast and
everything possible is to be done to
enable the voters to pass intelligent

Landlords Lack;no

Switzerland Is described in London
Everyman as "a land without landlords"
The natural temper Of the Swiss is such
mat any man who should acquire and at
tempt to cultivate an extensive acreage
would find 1t difficult to hire the neces.
sary labor. The Swiss are willing to re-
gard themselves as belonging to the soil
only on the condition that the soil belongs
TO them. In cases where hired labor is
indispensable, it generally has to be i'm
ported from Austria. The Swiss prefer te
leave the land and seek their fortunes in
the hotels, or in the towns. or across the
seas. The Swiss peasant, no matter how
poor, Is strong In the consciousness that
ne IS a free and independent citizen Of a
state to which no other rank thar official
rank is known. The poorest peasants are
not In the least anxious that their daugh-
tiers should seek service as domestic de-
pendents Of distinguished people. They
prefer to enter the service Of hotels. The
lack Of wealthy patrons dwelling among
them does not deprive the children OF
school treats or themselves of organized
amusements. They have their rifle clubs
and are the finest marksmen in Europe.
They have their choral and orchestral So
c%ieties, and they love music n dancing
as fervently as their netghbors of Ger
many and France.

When and How to Punish.

FROM ll6 new YORK WOrlQ.
A Boston school expert who has been
investigating conditions Of study and de-
pertinent among public school children,
hnds that 1.-The mental life predominates
In January, and February, while boys
and girls "are lowest from the view
point Of good citizenship during March,
part of April n In October" Good boys
are at their best at 10 o'clock in the
morning and bad boys at their worst at 8
should make their appeals accordingly.
What a lot of things we should never
have known but for sociology! Is it
possible that the predominance of ju-
yenile, mental life in midwinter is due to
the absence OF outdoor attractions like
baseball and bird nesting? But parents
cannot be too careful in the treatment Of
their children under the new dispensa-
tion, and in the light of this discovery
1t will be their fault IL they spoil the
child through neglect of choosing the
psychological moment for persuasion or
reeproof. No doubt the sociological family
functions: up to IL a. m., appeal to lit
tie Wllie's reason, delay spanking till
after 4" and Sin March and October
avoid taxing Johnnie's mind with too
much schooling" etc. The modern school
boy is a sensitive plant and his moods n
lenses should receive due consideration.
With sociology. pointing the way, it will
pc the duty Of all parents to safeguard
MIN from the blighting effects OF hard
study.
