itentiary. More than this we are
sure that before the coming campaign
is over that the Orofino Tribune will
not be saying much about timber
tools.
Jim Blake's paper, the Orofino
Tribune, don't seem to relish a dis
cussion of certain recorded facts
about timber company taxes. We
told the people the Tribune would not
open its face about who reduced tim
Der company valuations a million dol
lars in the night, nor how it happened
that Jim Blake and others of the
gang sold certain timber companies,
whose values were serruptitiously
reduced some million dollars, a
bunch of their private timber claims.
The people may discover, when the
facts come out, as they may, that
there was reason why the Blakes
didn't go to bat in their $50, 600 DAM
age suits against P. l.. circuit.

A town is generally about what the

A town is generally about what the
citizens make it. Orofno will be
what its citizens make it. 1t has
the natural resources for an important
commercial center; it has vast de-
posits of lime rock, cement deposits,
water power and timber. 1t has
great opportunities for live stock.
1t has the soil and climate for i'm
mense agricultural and fruit crops !;
we can raise corn and beans and en-
silage crops; we have been richly
endowed by nature. If Orofino and
Clearwater county lag in the race for
commercial supremacy the people
should accept the blame. No COM
munity has greater opportunity to
do something than has this one.
Few communities have done so little
when they had so much out of which
to build.

The responsibility of a new

The responsibility Of newspaper
is great. 1t has the opportunity to
talk to great many people, and to
create sentiment for or against great
issues. What can we say of the ed
itor who, having this big opportunity,
is guilty of the sin of omission? 1t
is the paper that stands for right
when right is on the scaffold that is
worth while. A paper that stands
still, doing nothing, being nothing,
holding aloof and watching the strug-
gle, like the vultures of war, waiting
for the battle to feast on the slain, is
hardly to be depended on. The sins
of omission are as great as the sins of
commission,

State Senator Richard Jones of
Minnesota, a prominent labor leader,
speaking in Duluth the other day on
the labor traffic to workingmen,
pointed out that there is no room in
the philosophy of trade unionsm for
the personal liberty plea. when a
man joins labor organization, he
said ''he forfeits his personal liberty
to great extent. Every demand of
the American Federation of Labor, if
put in to legislative operation, would
invade personal liberty. Organized
labor protests because free labor is
obliged to compete with prison labor.
Seventy-fve per c mt of the men in
penal institutions are there because
OF. the liquor traffic. 1t is the BUSH
ness of liquor to put men in penal in
situations; it is the interest of organ
lied labor to keep them out" Sem
ator Jones declared that as men,
Der of the trade union he would fight
the liquor traffic because it was OPP
posed to every principal advocated by
labor.

SOCIALISTS ARE HUMAN.

No political party is better than
the people who make up the party.
And here is food for thought when
Socialists come along with the prop
osition to let Socialists run our
counties, states and nation. The Soc
ialists would purify politics by turn
ing government over to socialists !;
would make our courts more honest
and our judges more dependable by
placing socialists on the bench.
Now stop and consider socilists as YOU
know them here in Orofino. Are they
of a superior manhood? Are they
more honest? Are they less subject
to worldly weaknesses, and any higher
in moral fibre than democrats or re-
publican? Have we ever had a more
despicable creature on judicial bench
anywhere than the socialist who
served as justice of the peace for two
years, ending January IL, 1916?
Talk of justice! Talk of the bench
being made more fair and square
talk of being more clean and better
than democrats and republicans
Here was plant tool, crawling in
the very dregs of political filth, max
ing mockery of justice and of law a
sham. We know that republican
judges and democratic judges have
sometimes been corrupt; have some
times debauched the bench to serve
selfish interests, but does this prove
that socialists are immune from
human passion and human prejudices
and human selfishness? No matter
what kind of law we may have; no
matter what form government may
take, it is men who must administer
government after all, and government
will never be better than the people
composing the government. Govern
ment will improve only as the ideals
of the nation improve. And govern
ment. whether republican, democratic
or socialistic, will always approx
mate the standards of the people max
ing up q government.
Let us illustrate. What about
prohibition? Have not our court
decisions followed the election re-
turns? All right, then, there you
have it. AS the mass of the people
making up nation so is the govern
ment of nation.
Political machines, prompted by
selfish motives, run by crooked,
corrupt men, sometimes democratic,
sometimes republican, sometimes Soc
ialistic, have and will at times get
control of government, but no honest
people will perpetuate them in office.
Frisco had it Rueff and Schmidt, and
corruption ran riot for time, but the
people drove these men from power

Whatever prosperity the United
States is enjoying under Woodrow
Wilson and the democratic free trade
program is due entirely to the inflated
business resulting from the European
war. But the republican party has
been able to so run this government
as to give it stable and permanent
prosperity without drawing on calam-
ity and world wide disaster of neigh
bors.

The success of the 1916 county fair
will depend largely on what is done
now towards planting and sowing for
the harvest time. Set apart spec
tally fine piece of ground for the
express purpose Of growing exhibit
ion stuff. That is the way to get
prize winning products. Let us see
how excellent we can produce. Let
us win first at Spokane and Lewiston
this year, thereby getting a lot of
valuable advertising, and thus help
attract attention to Clearwater

Vollmer use thousands of dollars of
county funds, to loan back to the
people at ten or twelve per cent,
and this while banks held county
warrants drawing seven per cent,
giving the banks about II per cent
on the peoples money, the republi-
cans are using every penny to retire
outstanding warrants. This. is the
difference between gang government
and business administration, the
former working for the gang; the lat
ter working for the people.

A bill is before Congress, intro
duced by Representative Addison
Smith of Idaho, prohibiting the bever-
age liquor traffic throughout the
police jurisdiction of the federal
government. The United States al
ready prohibits the traffic in the
navy, the national capital building,
military forts, soldiers homes,
among Indians, in portions of terri
torys, in the canal Zone, and in other
specified areas under federal control
but Mr.. Smiths bill would extend
the prohibition to include the Dis

Which proves that eternal vigil
lance is the price of liberty" and
that no government is better or worse
than the people making up that gov
eminent.
Socialism is no more a guarantee
that man is honest than is demo-
cracy or republicanism. Nor will it
ever be. The hope of the world lies,
not in any political theory of govern
ment, but in the personal qualities of
manhood and womanhood of a
country's citizenship. A Rueff or a
Schmidt will not become honest by
prescribing to socialism; an Abraham
Lincoln or James A. Garfield would
not become corrupt under any form of
government.
