ANOTHER REPUBLICAN PAPER
(Payette Enterprise.)

The Caldwell Tribune states upon
what it claims is reliable Information,
that the county seat is to have another
Republican paper. The movement for
the launching of the new publication
is said to be headed by prominent
leaders of the party in Caldwell,
Nampa and Parma. Possibly the
editor of The Tribune has been mis-
informed. We are not ready to be-
lieve that there is a crying need for
another Republican paper in field so
generously supplied with ably edited
and influential Republican papers as
is that portion of the county where it
is claimed the Headers" are longing
for more and better ones. It is prob
ably only another Of those political
spasams that cause men to display
more liberality than judgment. Usu-
ally the commissions cease before the
devil is to pay and it is to be hoped
it will SO in this case.

SENATOR ROOT.
(Lewiston Journal.)

kLeWlStOn Journal
Looking at it in the abstract it
would seem that when the best men
of a great commonwealth like the
state of New York assembly with a
desire to write a better constitution
and are assisted by a nation wide dis
cussion in the press better consti-
tuition would be drawn. But this did
not happen if the judgment of the peo>
pie is true, for they rejected that con-
stitution by a tremendous majority.
Elihu Root, Americas preeminent
Statesman, has lost prestige most de-
cidedly because of the rejection of the
proposed constitution. Mr.. Root in
the past has not posed as reformer
but in this campaign and in the work
of this convention he appeared in this
light and the work of the constitution
al convention was considered in a
measure as his work.
1t il said that this defeat in his
home State makes Mr.. Root less OF
a presidential possibility. Up to the
time of the election he was rapidly
growing in favor. II is most unfor-
tunate if the vote in New York de-
tiers Mr.. Root from entering the cam
paign for he is a wonderfully able
man and the Republicans of the ma.
ton would like to have given his can
didacy a good deal of consideration

CANYON COUNTY'S MAN.
(PaYette Enterprise.l

The Enterprise notes with pleasure
that the name of Col. L. V. Patch, of
Payette, is being mentioned in con-
nection with the office of Lieutenant
Governor. Nothing would please Col.
Patch's Canyon county friends better
than the frank announcement of his
willingness to become candidate for
an office he is so immediately qualified
to fill.
Canyon county under normal condi-
tons can be counted on for 1900 to
1000 majority for the Republican tic
ket and has been in the habit of doing
that sort of thing, in spite of the fact
that it hasn't bad an elective state
office forsthe past ten years. 1t now
begins to look as if the Republican
party would come into its own again,
county, state and nationally in 1916
and this seems to be very suspicious
time for Canyon county Republicans
to urge the claims of an available and
competent man for no less an office
than that of lieutenant governor.

VILLA DoUBLE-cRosSED BY
WILSON.
lCranpeville Glohe.l

Villa was the favorite played by our
government against HIuerta. Bandit
and murderer though he is, he is the
only one of the factioual leaders In
Mexico who has met the demands OF
Washington in the various unique and
changing peace plans which have been
put forward. Whenit was urged from
Washington that hastilities cease and
the Mexican colonies get together in
a peace pow WOW, Villa withdrew his
army from an advantageous position
in pending battle aud signihed his
willingness to do what he could to
patch things up in the interest of the
whole nation. Garranza simply told
our government to go TO hotter
cline, that he had not asked their
advice and would not have II forced

same as European powers, who were
causing rivers of blood to flow in an
attempt to settle their troubles, that
we had mo right to butt into the Mexl-
can trouble, and SO long as he was
president of the United States, it
should not be done. Tn what might be
termed treacherous manner, if APP
Piled to any other country. we did
butt in again in Mexican affairs, af-
ter declaring that we would not do so,
and also dragged in to a certain ex-
tent the countries to the SOUTH This
time we turned down our former
friend and helper Villa, and took up
the cudgel against him and in favor
of Carranza, who had constantly re,
fused to accept our overtures and
had kept hammering away in his own
style while Villa was fooling his time
away with his supposed friends at
Washington, until he really had the
best of it. Then we recognize Car
rama, as a reward of merit for his
successful activities in direct opposi-
ton to our demands, crown him dicta-
tor, supply him with arms and allow
him to march his troops through our
country that he Nigh cut off and de-
stroy the ragamuffin army of our
former friend Villa, whom we have re-
fused to sell arms to defend himself
with. If there is any glory in peace
won like this (should it be peace) Mr..
Wilson and his cohorts are entitled to
it all. This is a practical illustration
Of Mr.. Bryan's peace at any price,
whether it be morals, manhood, ma
tional standing, or whatnot. Although
Mr.. Wilson, who since Mr.. Bryan
left his cabinet denies that he believes
in his former secretary of states va
carries on the peace question, cannot
lay this last move on Mr.. Bryan. He

of Judge Bryan of the Seventh judicial
district, who approved of the creation

opinion was written by Justice Bulge

Morgan, in a supplemental opinion,
declared his belief that the trainers
