A Setback
For Wilson

Washington, Aug. 6.-The recent
primaries in Texas furnish anything
but cheerful reading for administra'
tion supporters. Five members OF
Congress who were seeking renomin'
alton and trying to ride TO vtctosy
on the Presidents coat tails were de-
feated and the most pronounced crit
,c of the administration in Texas
Ex-Governor Colquitt-had long lead
on his rivals for the nomination for
the United States Senate.
In December, 1914, while he was
still Governor and before the Next
can trouble had reached anything
like its recent acute stage. Mr.. Col
quit expressed his opinion OF the
Wilson administration, and In writ
ing.
"The Wilson administration" he
wrote. has been the greatest failure
in the history of the Presidency. Its
foreign policy has been imbecile. It's
repeal OF .he Panama Canal tolls ex-
emption in violation Of the party's
national platform was another weak
surrender to England. The Wilson
Bryan management of the Mexican al
fair has been an egregious failure.
Tbev landed an American army in
Vera Cruz to force Huerta to salute
The flag and have brought 1t back
without getting the salute. What DID
Il accomplish 1t set all Mexico on
fire against the Americans, not only
in Mexico but in Texas. 1t brought
on a reign of terror all along the Tex
as border. Wilson and Bryan have
stood by encouraging one gang OF
bandits after another, while people
were being butchered all over Next
CO."
Nor did the Governor confine mis-
comments to the Mexican problem
"The administrator anti trust
laws" he wrote, "are bare faced fakes
so far as protecting the people from
trust oppression is concerned. / am
fully convinced the national election
of 1916 will end the Democratic re-
gime."
Such language rs this made Col
quit persona non grata to the admin
istration, to put mildly; and in the
primary all that the President could
do and all that his numerous Cabin
ct officers and other prime favorites
from Texas could do was done to beat
the timorous Ex-Governor. The ad
ministration's first favorite was Con
gresham Bob Henry; but when 1t be
came evident that he was tagging In
the race the White House changed
its mind with usual facility and trans
ferred its affections and its support
to Senator Culberson. Nevertheless
Colquitt Leads Culberson by more
than 10000 and Henry is bad third
In addition, Ave Democratic Rep
resentatives who bore the distinction
of being fair haired boys at the
White House found themselves unable
to get across for another term.
The result is not without Its ef
feet on Capitol Hill. Up there many
a Congressman who was planning to
go back home and ask for anothe'
term on the ground that he had stood
by the President, is now wondering II
he would be better Off II he could
find another slogan.

DEEIES FEMALE BALLOT
WEILDERS

Clarence Van Dusen, Democratic
state auditor-elect, has given it out
eoid that Emo women Issd applys
when he assumes charge Of the state
office to which he has been elected
either as stenographers or office as
sistants, and goes further and says
that he will have a bill introduced
in the legislature which will have for
its object the prevention of employ
ing women in any of the state OF
county offices in Idaho, claiming
that they are careless, incompetent
and that the counties Of the state
have lost over million dollars on
account of the lax bookkeeping meth
DDS where women are employed.

IF WE MOVE LET'S GO FORWARD

The county commissioners of The
state, now meeting in Boise, will
probably consider during their SEES
siOns the question of IdahO's direct
primary system and whether we are
getting anything of value in return fol
the hugh sums which this plan is cost
ing the people.
The opinion is almost unanimous
that the present system is failure
but it must be remembered that the
old convention plan was also failure
In order to get good government
we must have party responsibility and
party discipline one more, and we
must find some way of again securing
the services of the strong, reliable
men Of all parties from the various
political divisions of the state.
If we return to the convention plan
we must not leave the way open to
have the delegates chosen to represent
individual or corporate interetst, or
leave the way open for such inter
ests to pay the expenses of delega-
tiOns.
1t is possible to retain the best fea-
lures of both the direct primary and
the convention plans-to take a step
forward and not step backward. -

QUE cHR1srMAs CUSTOMS,

The United States is indebted to
three nations for its Christmas. Gus
toms and observanccs, for England,
Germany and Holland have all con-
tributed to our holiday lore.
The Yule log and Christmas carols
were transplanted from English soil OF
course, but it is from the Dutch oh.
servance of st. Nicholas day, Decem-
Der 6, that we get our habit of hang.
ing stockings by the fireplace for
Santa Claus to fill. st. Nicholas day
is a distinctly Dutch holiday, and in
Colonial times in New York Dutch
wooden shoes were left by the fire.
places for the gifts, which were al
ways anonymous. Later, English
stockings took the place of the
wooden shoes.
The custom of the Christmas tree
was given to the world by the Ger
mans and became almost universal in
the Christian world about the yeal
1850.
In reality our Christmas observance
is survival of the old midwinter fes
rivals which meant so much to the ole
Romans. They it was who first uset
green decorations at that time. Mis-
tlctoe and hclly were used at the mid
winter festivals in pagan England dur
ing the Roman occupancy and sucf
use has survived down to this day.
Later, when Christmas took on
spiritual and religious significance
evergreens came into general use a
symbols of the everlasting life Of tn
