DIS FOR SENATOR

Hon. N. S. Dis, who represented
Boise County in the Legislature last
term, and who is now serving as COM
missioner of the End district, has been
nominated as a candidate for senator
in the primary election this fall.
Mr., dis is an ardent democrat and
certainly made good in his previous
servitude as representative. He is
surely entitled to the office he now
seeks at the hands of the democrats
of Boise county and. is in our opin-
ion. He will have no opponent in the
primary but can enter the campaign
for senator feeling that he has the
united support of his party.-Cascade
News.
ThePeople of Boise County will al
ways find Mr., dis splendid man. We
do not know how it comes that he is
a Democrat but it so comes. In spite
of his policies Mr.. Oils is one of the
best men who ever sat in the Idaho
Legislature. He should be continued
there. The legislature needs such
men.

NOTHING PERSONAL; THEY ARE GOOD
FELLOWS

The officials of the Reclamation Service probably
as fine lot of men would care to meet. Some
of them big men, all of them good men. There
is nothing break in the friendly relations be-
tween the settler and any Reclamation Service official
There nothing personal in the fight that has been
dertaken
The officials of the Reclamation Service naturally think
that the various government reclamation projects have
been handled wisely economically and expedtously
possible Upon the of having done their best
in difficult situations they look forward to vindication
The settlers convinced that these projects might
have been constructed cheaper There for honest
difference of opinion We dare say that Reclamation
official will claim that mistakes have been made The
question arises: Who shall pay for these mistakes? The
settler says the government The Reclamation Service
says the settler That is all there is the controversy
In the common affairs of life every pays for his
mistakes later and in some manner other.
We are convinced that the law should follow its
in this instance He who has erred must pay the penalty

A WORD TO TRIBUNE CORES
PONDENTS

The Tribune receives each week
great many communications, sugges-
tons, clippings, ETC., from its read
ers. 1t is needless to say that these
items are all deeply appreciated. We
are thankful for the motive which in
spires the reader of the paper to
send us something which he thinks
might be of interest.
Sometimes there is a delay of a
week in publication. This delay is
not caused by the thought that some
thing else is more important or more
pertinent, but because the latter is
PERHAPS already in type or was re-
ceived earlier in the week.
We believe that The Tribune is a
fairly good country newspaper. If
it is such much credit is due to the
voluntary assistance and suggestions
of readers. This assistance is deep
ly appreciated by the publishers.
In case your communication or
suggestion is delayed keep in mind
the circumstances suggested above,
and above all else remember that
your interest in The Tribune is the
greatest asset the paper has and is
held in esteem commensurate with its
! value.

IDAHO WANTS RIGHT
KIND OF CHANGE
{ Emmett Index


That Idaho wants change from
the kind of government it has had
for a number of years one needs but
to get his ear to the ground and lis.
ten to what the voters are saying.
1t wants more breadth and vision and
understanding of state needs in the
the right kind of courage and SER
ly the real problems that confront
the state and make an honest effort
to solve them by every state official.
Idaho people are tired-dead tired
of the scandals in the land board
that pop UP every week or two. 1t
is tired of the governor of the state
using his position and devoting his
time to furthering his own political
ambitions. 1t is tired other Of
ficials stirring up continual row
in order to put 'one over" on the
governor Neither Governor Alex
ander nor any of the other state of.
fcials were elected for that purpose
An administration is needed that
will not be wasteful of the peoples
money and yet will not be so niggard-
ly as to cripple or stringhalt the
state schools and other institutions
by lack of funds. In short, Idaho
needs an administration that will
work together harmonously and eff
fectively to bring this state UP to
the rank in progress and develop
ment that its citizenship and resour-
ces and wealth justify-an admins
tration that has the courage and
seriousness of purpose to face
squarely the real problems that con-
front the state and make an honest
effort to solve them, not merely to
evade them or gloss them over for
fear of offending somebody or injur-
ing his political aspirations. The peo-
pie of Idaho will have an opportunity
to secure such officers in the coming
primaries and election if they investi-
gate every candidate and vote for the
best men. If they do not they will
have no one to blame but themselves.

PRESIDENT WILSON DID NOT ATTEND

contrary expectations did not attend the funeral The
foregoing is the gist of dispatch from Washington.

tended returning from his campaign trip into the north
in order attend the funeral of the who lost
his life Carriza while carrying the orders of the

Wilson has been noted by the of the country In
commenting the change in the program of the Pres

whether there a change in the programme

ton of Secretary Tumulty and failed receive the ap
proval of the astue mind of his chief does
appear Under all the circumstances, however, think
Mr.. Wilson deserving of praise rather than blame for
his course. 1t is true that he went to New York to
pronounce public eulogy the dead bodies of the
blue jackets and marines who killed in the battle
of Vera Cruz. Those, however, the first fall
Many of their comrades in the army have fallen since
in what Mr. Wilson then declared to be of service
in which it is proud thing die. Over the dead
mander killed at Carrizal there nothing his Com
mander-inChie could say that he had not said before
There nothing he could that would not contradict
"a previous saying furthermore from Fordvlle to Airing
ton longer journey rhetoricaly than by rail To de-
liver diaribe against buffers in" place and
euogy the Quitting in" at the other would have
been task to tax the powers of the most resourcefu
rhetoricans
"In addition there diplomatic reasons to sustain
Mr.. Wilson's absence. The Government in whose ser
vice Captain Boyd gave his life is at this moment
Quoting difficult and delicate negotiations with the Gov
eminent whose army trapped Captain Boyd in deadly
ambuscade. The presence of Mr.. Wilson his funeral
might we'll have been hailed in Mexico approval
of the whole of Boyd and his brave Lieutenant
Blair and the black troopers who followed without finch
ing, their white officers to glorious DEATH
The poetic license for the absence of any eulogy by
the Government dead from Carrzal doubt
be supplied by Ernest Dowson in his lines:
Where love hath been strong
Let silence speak"
