The Election

The election is over and the re-
turns SO far seem to indicate a
Republican Landslide all over
the United States with a few ex-
ceptions.
1t is a surprise to the Demo
Gratis who have felt SO secure in
the sense of certain victory that
many of them failed to exercise
their right to a voice in the selec--
tion of those who make and exc
cute the laws. 1t is an off year
and it has been impossible to a.
waken the people generally to
sense of the importante Of the
Political issues at stake.
We are unable to- get a compre
hensjve4 repost of the election in
time for this issue. Briefly stat
ed it is to the effect that Repub
lican gains are apparent in many
states, That Hernandez has
been elected over Ferguson to
Congress, and that the Republi-
cans will control the New Mexico
Legislature.
The following is the vote in
the Roy and neighboring pre-
cincts.

We have never dared hope for
our election as representative in
the face Of conditions in this
county but the unanimous en-
dorsement of the Democratic

received is proof that we are APP
preciated and a vindication of the
stand we have taken in public
affairs.

duct the anti-license campaign and it
may be that said committee is doing
effective work. We are not able to
say. We only know that we are being
asked from various quarters of the
county if anything is being done by
the anti-license people,, and we can
only say that 1--WE do not know" We
want to sound note of warning. The
time is short until election and what
ever is to be done must be done quick
ly. Our apprehensions may be I'M
founded. Everything may be in per-
fectly good shape. Having, however,
been in the thick of several anti-li-
cense fights in this county, we may
perhaps be pardoned if we feel some
what anxious over what seems to US a
failure to make an aggressive fight.
We believe the return to license in this
county would be a sad blow to our
prosperity, peace and good name. We
hardly thing our people are going to
make such a mistake. But the thing
might happen if the anti-license forces
are "asleep at the switch"

PRICES RECORD

IN asking the voters to support him
for Congress the Hon. Jesse D. Price
is having a good deal to say about his
"record" in the State Senate. Well,
the overburdened taxpayers are not
so "dee-lighted" with that record. Mr..
Price voted two millions of their
money to the Johns Hopkins Univer-
sity, he voted hundreds of thousands
of their dollars to further the political
scheme back of the Hammond Work
mems Compensation Bill, he voted
$4,000 of their money to send jun
keting party of Marylanders (himself
included) to the Panama Exposition in
San Francisco, he voted for the State
Tax Board that will impose thous-
ands of dollars of expense and many
hardships on the country districts of
this State-in fact, it would be hard to
find Senator Price opposing any
scheme for spending the peoples
money or loading us down with high
paid Commissions and enormous ap-
preparations.
We challenge Mr.. Price to name a
single instance in which he has stood
for the peoples protection against
raids on the treasury.

Business has rights which politicians
are bound to respect. To the end that
these rights shall be respected The
American Protective Tariff League,
recommends and urges larger parti-
cipation in political affairs by business
men. 1t is important that they shall
exert increased influence in public af-
fairs. More business men in politics
are needed for the congressional, state
and presidential ampaigns of 1914
and 1916, if the public business is to
be conducted with intelligent and sane
regard for the business needs and the
prosperity of the country.
To the above resolution we give a
hearty endorsement. If so much i'm
mature, or positively harmful, legisla-
ton is imposed upon us, these same
business men have largely to thank
themselves for the affliction. They
are "too busy" to take any part in
public affairs. They turn "that sort
of thing" over to the professional po-
liticians or to some young lawyers
who think themselves quite capable of
directing "public affairs" before they
have had the least experience in d.
recting any private affairs. And
when from such combination of leg
islative material there come forth sta
tutes that affiict and discourage and
hamper business, business men" heap
curses loud and deep on "fool legisla-
ton"
Well, the stream never rises higher
than it's source. The quality of legis-
lation will never be better than the
quality of the legislators. Hence if
you want better statutes, "get busy"

PRICES ESPECIAL DUTY"

POLITICAL campaigns frequently
develop decidedly amusing incidents,
and the fervent political orator, who
takes himself too seriously, is always
in grave danger of making himself lu-
dicrous. This bit of generalization on
political campaigns and political ora
tors is elected by the report of the
speech made last week to the oyster
men by the Hon. Jesse D. Price, candi-
date for Congress in this District Ac-
companied by his warm personal and
political friend, the Hon. Corville D.
Benson, Senator Price was striving to
corral the votes of the tongers, dredg-
ers, ETC., ETC., who were hearing MN
speak at St. MichaePs. He reviewed
his record in the State Senate, as the
"champeen" of the "oystermen and
the common rights of free fishery.
Warmed by his subject land more
warmed possibly by a warm oyster
roast) the Senator shut his eyes to all
other interests and to all other people
in these nine counties, indeed shut his
eyes to all the world of men and
things but oystermen and oysters, and
made this solemn specific, and withal
side-splitting promise:-"It will be my
special duty. if l am elected to Con-
gress, to devote my energies to one
specific object-tO increase the price
of oysters" Now, isn't that fine? If
elected to Congress, Mr.. Price may, of
course have some general, hazy, ILL
defined duties, such as answering the
roll-call or getting somebody a job.
But his special duty, the one thing
that will lie heaviest upon his mind,
that will command his most persistent
and conscientious efforts, the specific
object to which he will devote his eneT-
gies-will be to increase the price of
oysters.
In a general way, he proposes %
support the policies of President VIII
son. But his special duty will be to
increase the price of oysters.
In general way he will strive to
reduce the cost of living, but his spec
ial duty will be to increase the price Of
oysters.
In general way he will vote 10
scale down schedules but his special
duty will be to increase the price of
oysters.
Magnificent program! Laudable
ambition! Beautiful butfooonery! if
nobody in that audience laughed, it
must have been because every fellow
who wasn't an oysterman was clam

A SIGNIFICANT SIDE-LIGHT

WE hardly think Senator Price, in
his campaign for Congress, has done
wisely to bring to his support the Hon.
Corville d. Benson, Senator from Bal
timore county. The right-thinking
Democrats of this Eastern Shore do
not take to men of the Benson stripe.
We understand, of course, that down
at Annapolis Senators Price and Ben
son are boon companions and political
yoke fellows. But Benson stands for
pretty much everything which the bet
ter element of Democrats in this Dis
trict do not stand for. If man is to
known by the company he keeps, then
Price stamps himself pretty plainly
by his close personal and political as
ISOLATION with Corville Benson. In
other words, it is by just such side
lights that Prices real leanings are
becoming apparent. 1t has, for in
stance, been commonly reported that
the liquor people are with Prices can
didacy. Well, what could lend more
color of probability to the accuracy of
that charge than the presence of Sena-
tor Benson over here in this District,
campaigning for Price? So far as
this county is concerned we know that
Democrats, who think more of good
citizenship than of party labels, are
not going to stand for any such COM
bination. The candidacy of Price has
never been in very good odor with
right thinking folks up here, and every
day makes its odor worse. Mr.. Price
is striving to save his face, by cater
ing to the oyster vote in some quar-
tiers and by loud professions of "sup-
porting President Wilson" in other
quarters. But these old catch-penny
phrases of the professional politician
have lost their effect in enlightened
communities. Lots of our people, now
adays, insist on first weighing mans
personal character and political asso-
citation. And right they are. The in
telligent, outstanding Embossed, vote
is the vote upon which We must de-
pend to teach public men that they
must heed that righteousness which
exalteth nation.

"FOR Price and License" is the slo-
gan being used by Democratic "lead-
ers" in some of our districts. That
ought to make lot of our Democratic
friends understand what is going IN
in one wing of the Democratic party
in this county. They have been doing
their work very quiely, but in the last
few days we have "got the goods" on
them, and the anti-license Democrats
in this county ought to smite them hip
and thigh.

PROGRESS!VES FOR BRADY.

T.pWiSton Trihune)
(LeWiston Tribune

The meeting held at Lapwai Satur-
day by the progressive leaders devel-
oped one interesting feature, accord
Ing to progressves, and that is the
county organization will vote for
James H. Brady for United States
senator instead of Paul Clagstone. the
party candidate and leader of the par
ty in north Idaho two years ago. Mr..
Clagstone addressed the meeting at
Lapwai last week and was encourag
ed to believe that the meeting was for
the progressive candidate and that the
county ticket would be behind the
state ticket
1t developed recently from a state
ment of a progressive leader that the
county ticket is promulgated by thr
dry organization of the county and
that Senator Brady is endorsed for
the United States senatorship and
French would be second choice re-
CARELESS of the efforts Mr.. Clagstone
has made in behalf of his candidacy.
Mr. Clagstonc does not understand
the situation in NeZ Perez county"
said a progressive yesterday. "The
county ticket is named and the per-
sonnet of the ticket shows strong men
1t will get votes in the country pre-
cincts but beyond the county tickle!
the candidates will divide on the state
ticket.
at is plain that the organization
endorsed nothing but the prohibition
and lower taxes planks of the state
platform. Clagstone was the speaker
at the meeting and his name was not
mentioned in the resolutions. The I'M
der current of the meeting was that
Brady will be the candidate for Unit
ed States senator who will receive the
vote at the polls"
