FAIRBANKS REPRESENTS HIGH
EST TYPE OF CITIZENSHIP.

Charles w. Fairbanks, the republic
can candidate for vice president was
the successful running mate of the
lamented William Mckinley in 1896.
Prior to his elevation to the vice presi
dency he had served with conspicuous
ability In the United States senate,
and his entire carer both in office and
in private life has stamped him as
the highest type of citizenship and a
statesman of commanding ability. He
had the support of Indiana and other
states for nomination as president,
and he is recognized as being we'll
equipped for the duties of chief exec
utive of the nation. His nomination
for vice president was unsought. His
selection was an admirable choice
and he will add strength and dignity
to the republican ticket.

RIGHT OF EMPLOYEES TO BOARD
WHERE THEY PLEASE.

Although there is law in this state
which is designed to protect employees
In their right to board and trade with
out interference from their employers
there is a well established belief that
the law is evaded by some of the min
ing companies of this district and that
many employees do not enjoy this right
Naturally 1t is subject that an en-
ploye does not care to discuss for OBJ
vious reasons. He feels that his Job
depends on his remaining at the COM
pany boarding house, and while he
knows and feels that his rights as a
citizen are being outraged, he is in no
position to make a protest, which
would result in his dismissal, for he
must have work.
We hear much of "Amerlcanism"
these days and 1t is to be made the
main issue of the campaign, but many
seem to regard the question as one
which applies only to our relations
with foreign countries and to the pro-
lection that should be extended to
American citizens in foreign lands and
ON the sea. We are all in favor of
that kind Of Amerlcanlsm and we are
all free to advocate 1t without re-
straint, But there Is an Americanism
that has nothing to do with our rela-
tons with foreign countries, and yet II
is of even greater importance than
the kind so vigorously advocated in
these days of war and near war. This
Americanism has to do with the pro-
lection of American citizens at home
in their inalienable right to "hfe, lib
erty and the pursuit of happiness"
No man who is forced to board at the
company boarding house or trade at
the company store can be said to be
enjoying this right which is the very
basis of free government The time
has passed when men at the head of
big enterprises can fool the people by
posing as the special advocates OF
lefty and patriotic ideals of govern
ment and at the same time sanction a
system that robs American citizens of
their inherent rights in order to swell
their profits. Let us begin at home to
practice Americanism. Let us insist
that every citizen is protected in the

of confidence and respect at home for

BoRAH WAS A POWERFUL FAC
TOR IN THE CONVENTION.

The prominence and prestige dis
played by Senator Borah in the ma
tional convention are matters of much
pride and qualification to the people
of Idaho. He was an original Hughes
man. believing that the supreme JUS
tice, in addition to possessing all the
high qualifications for president, was
the man to draw the united support
of the party. He is credited with hav-
ing written the most vital sections of
the platform, and it was only through
his positive refusal to permit 1t that
his name was not presented to the
convention as candidate for the
presidency. He was later urged to
accept the nomination for vice pres-
dent, but positively declined, prefer
ring to retain his seat In the senate
The prominent part played by Senator
Borah in the nomination of Mr.
Hughes and the powerful influence
he exerted in shaping the action of the
convention suggests that 1t Is prob
able that he may be offered a place
in the cabinet. He Is admirably quail
flied for the position of secretary Of
the interior, the great department
which Is so closely identified with the
governmental questions affecting the
west and he is equally well fitted for
the position of attorney general.

ROOSEVELT AND THE REPuBLI-
CAN NOMINEE.

Colonel Roosevelt now has an OPP
portunity to give the country an ex-
hibition of the highest patriotism by
giving whole hearted and enthusiastic
support to Charles e. Hughes for
president. For months he has urged
Republicans of all shades to forget the
minor differences that have divided
them and unite In support of candi-
date that will insure the defeat of the
democratic party. At that time the
colonel was candidate for the nom
nation and if he had been successful
In securing the republican nomination,
he would have expected and no doubt
would have received the support of a
united party. 1t is now up to him to
prove the unselfshness of his attitude.
IL he supports Hughes earnestly, open
ly and with his characteristic energy,
republicans will be disposed to for
get the past and restore him in their
estimation to the place he occupied
prior to the disastrous events of 1912.
Failure to do this will leave no
other conclusion than that Roosevelt's
patriotic appeals for Americanism
and preparedness were solely in the
interest of his personal ambition to be
president. The opportunity is here
for Colonel Roosevelt to prove his high
and unselfish motives.

DEATH OF KITCHENER.
(Goodwin's Weekly

The announcement of the death of
Lord Kitchener brings great shock.
| 1t is as when on a soft summer day
when the clouds have fled from the
sky and all the winds are laid a
mighty tree that for a century had
faced all the storms and still stood
erect, suddenly, and without one pre-
monition of disaster, crashes to the
earth. The manner of his death adds
to the sorrow. Had he died on the
battle line with his brother soldiers
dying around him and all the great
guns roaring in final salute, it would
not have been SO lamentable, but the
comfort Is that he died at the post of
duty and he had so lived that the
world will believe his great sorrow,
when he realized death was certain
and immediate, was not for himself
but for his country.
Still he was personally loved but
by few. His mind was a segment of
exact science and carried no more
flowers than does an adding machine
or the multiplication table. But his
countrymen trusted him implicitly
and had grown to believe that there
was no problem too difficult for him
to solve, and so he had become
pillar that all leaned upon.
More than one of them, when the
news of his death came, said: "Had
we lost great army, we could have
raised another one, but who can pick
up the fallen mantle of Kitchener and
wear it?"
The heart of England must be very
heavy just now. The dead in the sea
fight last week SO swiftly followed by
the death of Lord Kitchener and his
staff bring with them an acuteness of
sorrow that does not generally attach
to a calamity.
The thought that a little caution
might have greatly mitigated the dis
aster is upon them, and the other
thought that they can not have even
the graves of their loved ones to dress
with flowers.

MONEY WENT THREE WAYS.
Duluth News Tribune)


A dispatch from Boston told of the
chartering of a schooner to carry
cargo of rum to the west coast of
Africa, the charter rate for the voyage
being $4,000, somewhat more than the
vessel cost to build. The incident,
says the New York Mail, recalls the
good old days when Boston made It's
first big money trading in rum and
negroes"
The hardy Boston traders brought
sugar from Jamaica to Boston. They
made this sugar into rum and carried
the rum to the west coast of Africa.
They exchanged the rum for droves
OF slaves, brought to the coast from
the interior. They put the slaves be-
be traded for more sugar, to be made
into more rum, to be exchanged for
more slaves Many an early Boston
fortune was made out of the profit of
this triangular trade, money which,
when the slave trade was no more,
went into the New Bedford whaling
industry, and, when petroleum replac-
ed whale oil, found its way into cop
per mines and railroads of the west.
The slave trade is long dead, but
the West African taste for Boston
rum remains. 1t is perhaps the only
reminder that Boston retains of the
vanished glories Of the days of her
maritime supremacy

RoosEvELT's FORMER MANAGER
STRONG FOR HUGHES.

In the campaign of 1912 Joseph M
Dixon, ex-senator from Montana, was
chairman of the progressive national
committee and was personally select
ed by Colonel Roosevelt to manage
the campaign. A few months ago Mr.
republican party, and that if elected
a delegate to the national republican
convention he would favor the NOM
ination of Roosevelt for president. Mr..
Dixon lives in Missoula and is the
owner and editor of the Muscular.
He attended the convention as a dele
gate. and was of course disappointed
because the convention refused to ac-
cept Roosevelt. But Mr. Dixon ac-
cepts Hughes with spirit that is
admirable. In signed editorial in
the Muscular of last Monday Mr.
Dixon says:
"The Muscular had hoped that
Theodore Roosevelt would have been
named as the joint nominee of the re-
publican and progressive conventions.
Another result has obtained. Justice
Hughes has been selected as the
standard bearer of the republican
party
There is no question that he was
the choice of very large majority of
nearly one thousand delegates as
sembled from every state in the union,
more than one-third of whom were
selected by statewide legal primaries
by the voters themselves.
Charles Evans Hughes is a big,
strong man with clean public and
private record. AS governor of New
York he performed great and lasting
services, as Judge Of the supreme
court he has been recognized as the
strong man of that tribunal. His past
history gives every promise tnat ne
will, If elected. make a strong, virile
leader Of the nation. Under the con-
ditions that now confront the people
of the United States, 1t would seem to
be the plain duty of every voter who
held allegiance to the republican par
ty prior to the unfortunate differences
of 1912, to give loyal support to the
candidacy of Justice Hughes for
president. He is a leader who will in
truth lead, If elected chief executive
of the nation we will have no cause
to apologize for being citizens of the
United States.
1.-THE Muscular is for the election
or Charles Evans Hughes"

AMERICANS FOR AMERICA.
minneapolis Journal)

America for Americans is the
shibboleth that Col Roosevelt is
sounding loudly and generously. In
our opinion 1t is not happy phrase.
1t is not genuinely American. 1t was
the rally cry of the old and discredited
Know-nothing movement, which was
American. 1t does not voice the
depth and breadth of Americanism.
There is another cry which not on
ly voices the spirit of America, a cry
that is inclusive instead of exclusive
and that meets the needs and fits the
temper of the country.
Instead of America for Americans"
we suggest Americans for America"

STOCK EXCHANGE AND MINING.
mining and Scientific press)


Whether mining really benefits from
the kiting of shares on local stock ex-
changes and the use of mines as an
excuse for game in which the dice
are loaded is a moot question. The
only good we can see is the actual
work done at the mines, the employ
ment given to labor, and the market
created for machinery. Wildcats have
been known to develop into domestic
felines hardly distinguishable from
the best bred Angoras; that must be
conceded The harm is done not by
the open eyed gambling of the know
ing ones. but by the loss OF money to
that portion of the public unable to
distinguish between the game" and
the industry of mining.

Gently stated that he has sold since
last fall to the white fish fishermen on
Lake Pend d'Oreille better than 1000
fish boxes of 50-pound capacity White

means that the 100000 pounds of fish
shipped from the lake since last fall
have brought approximately $4,000
