 But as people we have not learned to do this witt the members of society who sinned against the state We send them to prison in order that they pay the penalty after the law has called still refuse to consider that they have paid up.

FARMERS PICNIC BIG SUCCESS.
Attendance About One Thousand
Program of Addresses and Sports

The farmers picnic at Bonanza Bar
ranch, Wednesday, was a success. The
attendance was about 1000. possibly
more. People kept coming all day,
and from 10 o'clock until evening the
crowd thinned but little. People kept
coming and going all day. The only
disappointment was the failure OF the
state speakers to arrive. State Lead
er Hochbaum was detained at Boise
and wired at the last minute that he
could not come, and the Franklin
county adviser also failed to arrive.
T. w. Potter, who came for the pur-
pose of giving a canning demonstra-
ton, came on a train that was so much
behind time as to land him at the
grounds after this part of the program
had been concluded and the people
scattered to watch the sports.
County Agent Kjosness spoke to the
farmers on wheat growing and the
advantages that would follow the
growing of the better varieties and
keeping them free from smut, and
making exhibits that would win prizes
at the big fairs. Power county wheat
commands premium on account OF
reputation for quality, and 1t is es-
sential to every wheatgrower to live
up to the reputation gained. Mr..
Kjosness also judged some work
horses, pointing out their strong and
weak points, giving all who heard him
good points to bear in mind in breed
ing for better animals.
Miss Whistler talked to the ladies
on woman's clubs, the health Of
school children and other subjects OF
interest to them. She SO favorably
impressed her hearers as to be invit-
ed over into Cassia county to deliver
a similar address. There were many
Cassia county people present and all
took keen interest in the program.
Both Rockland and American Falls
contributed literally in making up the
crowd. The day was pleasant and the
place ideal for the purpose. There
was ample shade, good lawn for the
picnic dinner and a hearty welcome
from Mr.. and Mrs. Elgin for all.
The sports began right after dinner
and lasted until evening.
The American Falls Concert band
was present and materially contri-
buted to the pleasures Of the day
There were more than 100 autos on
the grounds at o'clock and more
kept coming all the time. In many
ways this was the best of all the To-
cal fairs held up to date.

STATE PLATFORM CONVENTIONS

An important meeting of the Re-
publican state central committee is
scheduled to occur in Boise on June
81, that being the date of the state
platform convention of the party. 1t
Is also the date when all the other
parties will hold conventions for the
adoption of platforms Of principles.
Delegates were selected all over the
state on Tuesday of this week, and
reports received from all sections in
dicate that the strongest men have
been chosen to outline the statement
of principles upon which the people
will be asked for their support
The coming meeting OF the state
central committee it is expected will
be an exceptionally important one.
There are a number of matters to be
considered by the organization, which
1t is felt should ge gotten out of the
way before the primary elections are
held.
Hon. c. c. Cavanagh, who has re-
turned from Chicago where he attend

people would have been pleased at
the important part that was played
by Senator Borah in the proceedings
OF both conventions. Largely to his
efforts are due the tentative acceptance
that was given by the Progressives OF
the nomination of Hughes by the Re-
publicans, following on the declina-
tion of Colonel Roosevelt. In Mr.
Cavanagh's mind it is APPARENT that
there was a practical coalition of the
two parties, and it is now apparent
that the Republican nominees will re-
ceive the practically unanimous sup
port of the Progressives throughout
the United States.
Hon. Evan Evans, chairman of the
Republican state central committee
has returned from Chicago, where he
was a witness OF the proceedings ir
the Republican convention. and of the
exciting incidents that surrounded
both party meetings. He has gone tc
his home in Grangeville and after at
tending to some important private af
fairs, will return to Boise shortly after
June 20.
