viGlLANT IN DE-
TENSE OF FREE PRESS.

The people of this country should
not overlook the fact that they are In
debted to republicans for the protest
made in the senate against that pro-
vision of the so-called spy bill which
would have destroyed freedom of the
press and of speech. Senators Lodge
of Massachusetts, Cummins of Iowa,
Borah of Idaho, Johnson of California,
Brandegee of Connecticut led the OPP
position to one of the most drastic
measures ever proposed for the pur-
pose of giving government officials
autocratic power. The bill provided
that whoever in time of war in vio-
lation of regulations prescribed by the
president shall publish any informa-
ton with respect to war materials,
plans or supposed plans, or any other
information relating to the public de-
Tense calculated to be or Wnlcn lnlSnt
be useful to the enemy shall be pun
ished, and then there was a proviso
that pretended to but did not protect
The freedom of the press. AS one SEN
ator pointed out, If shells furnished
to our ships proved to be worthless
exploding in the guns, the American
press would not dare expose the fraud
because that would be giving the en-
envy information regarding our weak
ness Senator Borah added the COM
ment that it would be better to have
"a little publication rather than have
our soldiers go into battle with de-
fective shells. The sweeping nature
of the bill was emphasized by Sen
ator Cummins, who said that it APP
Piled to individuals as we'll as to

LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN.
Fine Specimens of CrystaI!ized Lead
From Pine Creek.

Some beautiful specimens of crys-
tallized lead We're brought TO town
from the Lookout Mountain property
on Pine creek during the week, says
the Wardner- Kellogg News. The sam
pies were taken from the face of the
drift in the upper tunnel where an
extensive shoot of carbonate ore has
been exposed. The vein has been
crosscut for % feet on this level and
shows heavy naturalization across
this width. The crystallized speci-
mems brought in this week have high
values in silver as well as lead and
show copper tinge which gives the
ore a beautiful appearance. Old tim
ers state that the samples remind them
of the upper Tyler workings and parts
of the Caledonia vein. The Lookout
Mountain company completed surveys
for lower tunnel during the week
and will begin operations at once to
cut the present ore showing 240 feet
deeper. The property is located near
Peeler, four miles from the railroad.

sELEcTlvE CONSUMPTION WILL
NOT PROVE FAIR.

The people of the United States we
believe are overwhelmingly In favor
of CONSUMPTION as the best and fair
est means of raising an army. To
depend upon the volunteer system
would result in great delay at time
when it is OF the greatest importance
to have an effective army at the ear
Hest possible date. But the select
i've" feature should never have been
permitted to stand and we believe 1t
will have to be eliminated. 1t opens
the way for discrimination and favor
itism, and those who object to SER
vice in the army would be disposed
to flock to those occupations which
are regarded as essential to the sue
cessful conduct of the war. Every
person within the age limits should
be made subject to service in the
army, and when the call Is made say
for 100000 men, the number should
be apportioned to the states, and APP
portioned by the state to the coun
ties, and the names should be drawn
just as Jurors are drawn. If the wal
should be prolonged and it became a
question of keeping men at the front
and of providing food for both civil
ians and soldiys and of manning the
factories, then selective feature could
be invoked, but it should not be at
time when the number of soldiers re-
auired will not be missed so far as
interfering with the usual industries
OF the country are concerned.

house and will hazard the loss of his
present position which he seems able
to hold against all corners.
Addison T. Smith, who is serving
his third term in the lower house, is
also mentioned as a possible aspiran,
for senatorial honors. He has made
a fine record in congress. and if he
should enter the race for senator he
would develop great strength in all
parts of the state.
Although no intimaton has been
heard that he will be a candidate,
there is an impression that Judge
DIETRICH, of the United States district
court, will be candidate. He has
filed the position he now occupies
with great ability and distinction, and
he would like to round out his career
as a senator from Idaho. One could
hardly imagine a man more eminently
qualified and admirably adapted to
the position, and the state would be
fortunate in having him occupy the
place made vacant by the retirement
of Borah.
Among the democrats who are UNI
derstood to be ambitious to serve the
people of Idaho in the senate since
the retirement of Borah has opened
the way, Ex-Governor. Hawley seems
to have taken the lead in announcing
his intentions. Others who are be-
lieved to be girdng up their loins for
the race are Governor Alexander
John f. Nugent, Harry l.. Day. X. l..
Perky, Fred Il. Dubois, and probably
others.

WANT A SUNDAY TRAIN

REPORT MONTANA RAILROAD
COMMISSION WILL BE
ASKED TO ACT.

A CCORDING TO the Mineral
~ County Independent, published
~ at Superior, Mont there is
movement along the line to
get q Sunday train on the Northern
Pacific between this city and Missoula.
1t is not matter of asking the COM
pany to restore the service, but
rather of presenting the case
to the railroad commission of
Montana The Sunday service was
discontinued 50 long ago that the peo-
pie of this city seem to have forgotten
they ever had Sunday train on the
Northern Pacific. The train was dis
continued on account of light travel,
but from general business conditions
during the past year it would seem
that the travel would warrant restor
ing ii. Certainly the people on this
side of the divide would welcome the
Sunday service The Superior paper
says
Sunday Train on Northern Pacific.
"A movement Is unuef way all along
the line of the Occur d'Alene branch
to induce the Northern Pacific to re-

WHAT WILL BoRAH DO. AFTER
HE LEAVES THE SENATE?

Since the formal announcement by
Senator Borah that he would retire
| to private life upon the expiration of
| his term, much speculation is being
INDUCED in as to his plans after he
leaves the senate 1t has been often
stated that Senator Borah could step
into highly lucrative law business
| in New York any time he desired to
leave the senate, and the presump-
ton is that he has made "A connection
of that kind and that Idaho will know
him no more as a citizen of the state
entering the senate Mr.. Borah has
become national figure, and year
ago he was prominently considered
as a possible nominee for president
by the convention that nominated
Mr.. Hughes. Senator Borah at no
time gave serious considerat ton to the
presidential talk, and in fact discour-
aged ii and stated that If there We're
no other reason, the republicans of
the populous east would not consent
to nominate a candidate for presi-
dent from sparcely settled state in
the far west. 1t is evident that Sena-
tor Borah was sincere in this view,
for he was an ardent supporter of Mr..
Hughes and is largely credited with
securing his nomination.
Borah and the probability that he will
make his home in New York, having
in mind his prominence as pres-
dental possibility last year, sugges,
that the brilliant Idaho senator has
higher political aspirations and that
the lucrative law practice is merely
means to an end. Last fall the west
elected the president, and every one
of the western states would have
been carried by Borah if he had been
the candidate, but he would doubt
less lost enough states in the east
that were carried by Hughes to have
given the election to Wilson. Borah
was strong in the west, but the con-
sentative east was afraid of him. Now
suppose Senator Borah, feeling secure
in the west, has decided that he will
take up his abode in the center of So
called conservatism, and suppose in |
a little while the east no longer looks |
upon the senator as a rampant radi-
cal. but on the contrary as a man Of
safe and sane IDEAS progressive but
practical, and withal a man to be
trusted as leader in governmental
affairs With the east taking that
