GOVERNOR MANNING.

Governor Richard I. Manning
was received with some applause.
He said he is running for re-elec
ton on his record. Mr.. Man
ming said law enforcement is the
paramount issue of this cam
palgn, as it was two years ago,
saying some 1900 pardons had
been issued in the adminlstra.
ton preceding his. and charged
that blind tigers ran wide open
then. He SAID the question to-
day is whether there is to be a
return to that condition or con-
tinue the policies he has put IN
to operation. He reviewed his
Charleston policy and the raid
ing carried out there by the con-
stables operating there under
Sheriff Martin. He cited the re
ports of the solicitors of increas-
ed convictions in the last IL
months as evidence Of his state
ment on law enforcement. The
Governor said the blind tigers
in Charleston hlssed him and if
he IS reelected they will have
cause to hiss him again for he
proposes to continue to make
them obey the law, which state
ment drew applause. Il will
make no compromise with
crime" said the Governor. He
reviewed the business sldeof his
administration and the re. organ
ization and remodeling Of the
State Hospital for the insane.
He was presented Win MOVERS
and applauded.
FORMER GOVERNOR BLEAsE.
Former Governor Cole Blease

of Manning on furnishing such
beautiful pallbearers for the

said Mr.. Blease. He ridiculed
the Manning parade at Sumter
yesterday, saying it was partici-
pated IN by women and children
and 81 voter by actual count.
He said when he got through
speaking and left the stand at
Sumter 1000 of the crowd left
with him and the chairman got
up and said: ''Don't go, there's
some to be heard yet" Mr..

PLAYING POLITICS.

Politics are the great American
game. Politics are endemic, epidemic
and epicene, in this country today.
Under such conditions do not take
the person too seriously who hap
pens to be afflicted, and beyond all
else do not become too serious your
self. AS game politics are all all
right and should be endulged in BIZ
ennially by every citizen of the coun-
try. 1t really don't make much diff
ference, except to the candidates, who
is elected constable of precinct No. g.
Some day perhaps, the people will
insist upon having good, efficient
economical government When that
happy day arises politics will become
something more than game. 1t will
be real study, life work In that
day we will elect a man to office be-
cause he is qualified for that particu-
lar office and no because in 1898 he
thought that prohibition as practiced
in Maine was good thing for the
people of that comm onwealth.
In the meantime politics are a game
to be played according to the rules
in force at the present time. The
present rules for success are to con-
vince the people that you have always
thought as the people arc thinking
now, or that you you are a reformed
gambler. If. unfortunately, you can
do neither, it is advisable for you to
keep out of politics. You are dis
qualified at the start

SECRET OF POPULARITY.

In order to be popular you must be
held in respect. In order to be held
in respect you must be person of
firm convictions. OF course a pleas
ing address and a certain sense of
propriety are essential However, all
men Of firm convictions, pleasing adj
dress, sense of propriety and of re-
spect in the community, are not popu-
lar. Your convictions must be firm
on those subjects in which nobody in
particular is interested enough in to
differ from you.
We suppose that more buncombe
has been written about success, and
means Of attaining it than about any
thing else. If popularity is necessary
to your success the more artful you

ABOUT rs PER CENT EFFICIENT

We presume that when government
is about rs per cent efficient that that
is about all that can be expected.
Greater efficiency would excite alarm,
and possibly derision. We have no
hopes of government speeding itself
up.
We note that the public schools OF
Caldwell after their habit, are crowd
ed this year. 1t is with difficulty and
inconvenience to teachers and pupils
that all the children will be schooled.
This condition is not peculiar to Cald-
well. 1t is generally the case through
out the country.
Caldwell has invested in a public
school plant perhaps $4,000. This
plant remains absolutely idle three
months in the year The other nine
months it is used less than 50 per
cent of the time. Some genius may
arise in time and show the public that
It is not absolutely necessary that the
plant be allowed to rest UP 62l per
cent of the time.
Charles Lamb in his Dissertation on
Roast Pig states that it took the
Chinese hundreds of years to learn
that it was not necessary to burn the
house down in order to roast the pig
We move faster than the Chinese and
perhaps in a couple of hundred years
we will learn that a school house can
be used ten hours day for IL months
in the year without great harm to the
building

A PRIVATE SNAP.

Charles Edward Russell, former So
cialist candidate for governor of New
York, we'll known throughout the
country as publicist and author, and
at present representative of one of
the great press association of the
country, applied to the American en-
bassy at Paris for note to the Bel
gian government establishing, his
identity and standing as journalist
The application was denied Mr.. Rus
sell, not because there was any ques-
ton of his identity, reputation or
standing as a journalist, but simply
and solely because Mr.. Russell had
commented unfavorably upon the ad-
ministration of President Wilson, in
some of his newspaper writings. Mr..
Bliss, the first secretary Of the Paris
embassy wrote Mr.. Russell: "In view
of your criticism of the president
do not feel justified in giving you a
letter of commentator to the Belgian
legation"
This instance is an illustration of
intolerance that shames the admins
tration. President Wilson says in
effect: Unless you approve me and
mine you are not a good American
citizen, and shall not extend to you
the courtesies of the government. Mr..
Russell was guilty of 1ese majestic and
was punished accordingly. 1t is we'll
that the people of the country make
a note of this instance. 1t Illustrates
the attitude Of the government at
Washington toward the citizens of
the country. Never before was such
a partisan, narrow, begoted and in-
tolerant administration in charge of
the government.
The United States is not private
snap for Mr. Wilson let us hope. The
government is still supposed to be
maintained to promote the peace, hap
piness, security and welfare of all the
people irrespective of the opinion in
which they hold the present admins
tration.

JUDGE AILSHIE SHOULD
SPEAK UP.

A little while ago Judge James F.
Ailshie took occasion to warn the
people of Idaho that large, powerful,
and evidently corrupt, interests were
trying to gain control of the state
government. Judge Ailshie's warning
was rather vague and indefinite. He
did not give the people of the state
that information which would guide
them at the polls, but contented him
self with the warning that thieves
were abroad in the land, and that 1t
behooved the people of Idaho to be
on their guard. AT the time, through
the public press, a desire for more
definite information was expressed
In response to this expressed desire
Judge Ailshie simply reiterated his
warning.
The primary election has been held.
The candidates for state and county
offices are now before the people.
Judge Ailshie could indicate whether
the designs of the predatory interests
have carried or not He might go a
step farther and point out where they
carried and where they failed. If
Judge Ailshie has the information

THE RESULT IN MAINE.

Naturally the Republicans feel high
ly gratified over the results at the
state election in Maine Monday. The
Republicans made a clean sweep. In
many instances Democratic county
officials were swept out of office The
tide set in against the Democrats and
extended down to the counties and
into the hamlets.
For 60 days Maine has occupied a
very prominent position in the public
eye. Both parties sent their best cam
paigners into the state for the purpose
of influencing the sentiment of the
voters. The issues in the national
campaign now on were presented to
the voters of Maine The results Of
the election are the verdict of the
people of that commonwealth. The
Maine election is clear-cut, decisive
verdict on the Wilson administration.
Nothing explains the vote except the
one fact that the people of Maine are
dissatisfied with the national admins
tration.
The Republicans will feel encour-
aged. They will go about gathering in
other states with renewed courage
and determination. They will feel
that all it takes now is thorough or
ganization, systematic work and clear
forceful presentation of the issues Of
the campaign. The Maine election not
only indicates the probable result of
the general election in November but
also the course that the Republicans
must follow If the road to success Is
clearly pointed out there can be no
excuse for failure This applies to
elections as well as to the ordinary
affairs of life. The course to be fol-
lowed is simply thorough, systematic
and forceful presentation of the Dues
tons and issues before the people of
this country to be settled at the COM
ing election.
Every Republican throughout the
country should go to work in earnest.
Success for the party is within reach.
Intelligent application to the work at
hand is all that is needed.

A DISTINCTION WITHOUT A
DIFFERENCE.

An interview with Judge Will R.
King, chief counsel of the United
States Reclamation Service, appears
elsewhere in this issue of The Tri-
bune. Judge King, as the legal ad-
wiser of the Reclamation Service, is
expected to present the viewpoint OF
the service; to justify the actions Of
the service; and vindicate its methods.
No one should take offence at Judge
King for presenting his ideas and for
making out as good case for the
government as possible.
Judge King is an excellent man and
is doing what he can for the country.
No one should take umbrage at Judge
King because his ideas are not the
ideas of all. We admonish our read
ers to admire Judge King, respect
Judge King, use Judge King and then
finally to continue in their efforts to
get as much as possible from the gov
ernment for as little as possible.
Judge King holds that there is a
difference between river and harbor
expenditures and irrigation expendi-
lures. He says in effect that when
the government spends money ION
rivers and harborS it is spending
money ON public property and for the
benefit of the public; and that when
the government spends money on re-
clamation private persons are the
beneficiaries; consequently there is no
return of the river and harbor money
but there should be a return of the
reclamation money. We suspect that
when a million dollars Is wasted on
making Squedunk creek navigable
when nature never intended it to be
navigable and refuses to supply water
sufficient to float birch canoe that
private persons are the beneficiar-
les and thai the public interest has not
been promoted to any great extent.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1916-09-15

which justifies his fears he most GER
tainly can be a little more definite
now. If one or the other of the po-
litical parties, or if one or the other
of the candidates for governor, or for
other positions of high responsibility,
is the servant of hooters the people of
Idaho want to. know it. They cannot
know it too soon.
Following close upon the debt Judge
Ailshie owes the people of Idaho, in
such matters, is an obligation he owes
himself. He unquestionably feels an
obligation to his own good name to
clear his reputation of any tincture OF
falsity or Misrepresentation We will
state frankly that today thousands of
people in Idaho look upon Judge ALL
SHE with something akin to contempt
They are convinced that he is either a
false alarm or else has not the courage
of his convictions. The man who
bears false witness is little better IN
public opinion than the corruptionist.
The coward occupies lower scale
than either. Judge Ailshie's position
in the public mind may not be just
to the man but it is such as we have
indicated and just or unjust it will
remain until Judge Ailshie, himself,
changes it. If it should happen that
hooters are abroad, and should sue
coed to office, because the voters Of
Idaho are ignorant of them, their re-
sentiment will be greater than ever
They will feel that Judge Ailshie, who
presumes to know, failed his people in
their hour of danger There is little
difference between giving aid and
comfort to the enemies of the state
and failing to expose and attack them
He who flees the enemy is traitor
and coward to boot. He who joins
them may at least be courageous.
There are great many people who
have noted that Judge Alshie is about
as artful dodger as Idaho has ever
had in high office. Those people are
wondering if he will attempt to dodge
again. We suspect that he will con-
tinue in the course that has distin-
guished him for many years.

When Honeyville draws a quarter
million dollar postoffice building any
citizen of the country can get his mail
at that particular postoffice, by NOV
ing to Honeyville, but comparatively
few can avail themselves of the privil-
eye. In every public Improvement,
the people living in the vicinity are
the immediate and greatest beneficiar-
les. The benefit to the general public
is remote and negligible and no more
than it is benefited by the fact that
reclamation brings into cultivation
millions of acres of land, and helps to
supply the needs of the nation.
The Tribune is not contending that
the settlers should not pay for the
reclamation of their lands. They
should pay and are willing to pay. We
do not like to see Judge King attempt
to deceive the people with such trans
parent sophistry. The control of the
flood waters of the Mississippi river
are a benefit to the people living
along the river; the reclamation of
arid lands are benefit to the people
living on or near those lands; the
benefits in either instance, to the
country at large, are secondary, and as
worthy of consideration in one case
as in the other.

THINKS IDAHO REGIMENT
WILL BE SENT HOME SOON
Corporal Jennings of Company B Is
Home on a Three Weeks Furlough.

(Nampa Leader-H erald.)
Corporal Charles Jennings, Com
pany B, Second Idaho infantry, is the
first of the Nampa boys to return
from Nogales. He arrived Friday
night on three weeks furlough on &C
count of the serious illness of his
father, Rev. J. S. Jennings.
All of the Nampa boys are in ex-
cellent health, Corporal Jennings says,
and while they are all more Oh less
anxious to get home, none of them
wants to come until the whole regi-
ment is sent back.
The general opinion among the sol
diers is that the Idaho regiment will
be sent home and mustered out within
the next 80 days Some of the boys
are willing to bet to on the propo-
sition and there are numerous indl-
cations that the stay on the border
would not be long.

TODAY AND TOMORROW.

L he charm OF love is Its telling, the
telling that goes with the giving;
The charm of deed is its doing; the
charm of life is its living;
The soul of the thing is the thought;
the charm of the act is the actor;
The soul of the fact is its truth, and
the now is its principal factor
The world loves the Now and the
Nowist, and toasts all assumptions
with rigor,
1t looks not behind it to failing, but
forward to ardor and vigor;
1t cares not for heroes who faltered,
for martyrs who hushed and re-
canted,
For pictures that never were painted,
for harvests that never were planted.
The world does not care for a frag-
rance that never is lost in pertaining,
The world does not care for the bios
SONS, that wither away before
blooming.
The world does not care for the
chimes remaining unrung by the
ringer,
The world does not care for the songs,
unsung in the soul of the singer.
What use to mankind is purpose that
never shone forth in a doer?
What use has the world for lover
that never had winner nor wooer?
The motives, the hopes and the
schemes that have ended in idle
conclusions
Are hurried along with the failures
that come in life of Illusions.
Away with the flimsy idea that life
with a past is attended,
There's Now-only Now and no Past;
there's never past; it has ended.
Away with its obsolete story and all
of its yesterday sorrow;
There's only today, almost gone, and
in front of today stands tomorrow.
And hopes that are quenchless are
sent us like loans from a generous
lender,
Enriching us all in our efforts, yet
making not poorer the sender;
Tightening all of our labors, and
thrilling us ever and ever
With the esctacy of success and the
raptures of present endeavor.

THE COUNTY CHAIRMAN.

The Republican County Central
Committee will meet today. The COM
mittee will select a. man to conduct
the campaign. The purpose of cam
paign is to elect the ticket The only
thing that the committee should con-
slider in selecting its chairman is the
mans ability as an organizer and as
a fighter. He must be man who can
get others interested and at work !;
who will work himself; who will not
antagonize any considerable number
of Republicans.
There are dozens of men In every
community in the county who could
fill the bill There are comparatively
few men in the whole county who will
take the time and trouble. If one Of
those few men is offered he should
be grabbed up, but insist upon him
pledging his time to the cause. More
fights have been lost through ineffi-
cient leadership than through disaf-
lection on the part of the voters.
Usually disaffection arises on account
of unwise or weak leadership.
If we were going to pick campaign
winner we would pick the busiest
business or professional man whose
services could be had. There are no
secrets about campaigning. The thing
to do is to keep on campaigning
whether you are winning or losing
until the verv end.
