LABOR VOTE NOT DELIVERABLE.
This Is the Outstanding Fact Which
Political Philosophers Deduce From
the Defeat in Maine of Repre-
sentative McGiIlicuddy.

From among the numerous lessons
or conclusions which the political phi
losophers can draw from the Maine
election one lesson or conclusion
stands out more sharply defined than
any other. 1t jumps at you.
The labor vote, for the sake of
which the Poltroon Congress tarred
and feathered itself with its own
hands only a dozen days ago, is not
deliverable by the traders who pre-
tended to sell it.
This salient fact of the election Is
illustrated conspicuously in the Sec
ond Congress district. There are few
republic where labor is relatively
stronger than in the city of Lewiston,
the home city of Representative Nc
Gillicuddy, and he has made spe-
cialty of it in his own political prac-
tice. In the Second Maine, II any
where, would there be indications of
any return, in the shape of votes, for
the surrender of Congress to the four
BrOtherhoods. After campaign
which might almost be called desper-
ate in it's effort to save McGillicuddy
and one Democratic seat in the House
from the Republican onset, Mr.. Nc
Gillicuddy was defeated by an adj
verse plurality Of nearly 400, whereas
he had been elected to the Sixty
second Congress by n plurality of 1889
and to the Sixty-third by 1,2S1.

much investigation, and what Is con-

we'll now owned by the city, feek
that plan has been developed that
will solve the problem, at rea-

will meet present and future re-

very best kind of water for munich
pal purposes is concerned
Now we shall see how many OF
those who have heretofore express
ed their condemnation of the pres

works system will be found ready
to attend the citizens meeting Fri

ell the benefit of their best judg
ment concerning the pradticabl ity of
the plan that will be presented.
The council must have the sup
port of the people of the city If 1t
is to undertake to give them what
is generally admitted to be an ur-
gent public necessity. Every taxpay
er should feel in duty bound to at
tend the meeting Friday night and
should also feel free to express an
opinion for or against whatever may
be proposed. That Is the only way
by which some definite understand
ing can be reached. 1t is your af-l

You will have to provide the means
to carry into effect whatever plan
is agreed upon, while the City Coun-
Gil will have to be relied upon to
and efficiently carry these
plans into execution.
1t is up to you.

PAYETTE HAS CAUSE.
from Nampa Leader-Herald.)

FROM Nampa Leader-hcrald.)
The Caldwell Tribune and the Pay
cite Enterprise are having a contro
versy over the recent primary, which
perhaps might just as well be omit
ted for the good of the Republican
ticket, higher, up than county af'
fairs.
The Tribune, having done what il
could to deprive Payette of any rep.
resentation upon either the state OF
county ticket, cannot salve the mat
ter over now and any attemIt to
do so can only arouse antagonism.
1t is just as well to admit frankly
that Payette has good cause for feel
ing that it has been unfairly treat
ed. Granting for the sake of argu-
ment that there was justification in
bringing out an opponent to Mr..
Patch (Which the Leader-Hera,d doss
not ADMIT, there is still no reason
why Mr. Lattig should not have been
nominated If there were fear that
he would favor county division, and
any other section of the county were
opposed to division, surely the other
four members of the legislature
could hold their own against one.
That feature should not have enter
ed into consideration. Payette was
entitled to representation by all the
rules of fairness and county divis-
ion or other questions could be set
tied at the proper time.
The Leader-Heraid hopes to see
Payette take a broader view than
some of it's neighbors. We hope it
will forget that it was given a raw
deal, and for the sake of Republican
success, lay aside the very human
desire to get even with these who
were responsible for the defeat of
its candidates. It's asking good
deal, but we believe the Republicans
OF Payette as rule are big enough
to do 1t.

THE CITY WATER PROBLEM.

For a long time the citizens q
Payette have been loud in their
condemnation of the present water
system. because it does not furnish
supply Of clear, wholesome water
for domestic purposes at all seasons
Of the year. There has long been
q demand for some kind OF filtra-
ton system. or something that could

quirements Of the city. Public meet

MAXWELL AS AN
| AID TO FARMERS.

Automobile Takes Place of Old
Dobbin on California Ranches.
Old Dobbin, through the progress
siveness of the California rancher
has come into his own on a broad
er scale in that state than elsewhere
in the country, according to the
best available data In that great
commonwealth much of the work
done on the ranches, both in the
central valleys and in the mountain
counties, which in the past has been
accomplished chiefly with the horse,
is now being done in the more mod
ern way with the motor car.
CALIFORNIA; farmers, from the be-
ginning of the auto industry in the
west, have been the most important
factors in creating and maintaining
the prosperity of the motor car bust
ness. The fact that California's an
nual crops are usually of the bump
er" variety, accounts in larse mea-
sure for the tremendous and contin-
uous growth of the automobile bust
ness in that state. The prosperity of
the farmer there has always been re-
Elected in the prosperity of the
automobile business.
Varied as the farm and dairy pro-
ducts of California are the uses to
which the rancher of that state puts
the automobile. They extend from
the most Common usuage of proyid-
ing pleasure for the rancher's fami-
ly and hauling crops to market, to
towing other farm vehicles, operat-
ing farm machinery and actually fur
hishing the motive power for the
self-operating milking machines. Dur
ing each succeeding season some
new and ingenious uses are made OF
the motor car-some calling for
sheer strength of the cars mater
lals; others simply for a clever ap-
plication of the engines power
John R. Leland, a prosperous
rancher of the Santa Cruz noun
.ains, furnishes striking example
Of the uses to which the rancher
puts his motor car. During the past
naying season Leland hauled all of
his hay from the fields to the
stacks, distance of nearly one
nile, with the aid of his Maxwell
rs touring car. Leland would load
he cut hay on an ordinary hay wa
son, then tow the latter from the
led with his Maxwell. Leland has
many other uses for his car and
states that he would be absolutely
1T loss without his machine while
It work on the ranch.

The water-wheat fields are ponds in
which the peon places bundles of
reeds few feet apart. so that their
tops are just above the surface. On
these reeds or rushes the insects de-
posit their eggs in incredible num-
bers. The bundles are then removed
and the crop is shaken off, The
eggs, resembling fine fish-roe. are
made into small cakes and are sold in
the markets, to be eaten as we eat
