In his speech of acceptance Sen
ator Harding took final farewell c
Mr.. Wilson's particular league of Ma
tons programme. He pledged himsel
and his party clearly and speciacall
to new peace plan. His exact word
were:
Il promise you firm and effectivs
peace so quickly as a republican
congress can pass it's declaration
for a republican executive to sign.
Then we may turn to our readjust-
ments at home and proceed DELHI
erately and reflectively to that
hoped for world relationship
which shall satisfy both conscience
and aspirations and still hold us
free from menacing involvement
Disposed as we are the way is
very simple. Let the failure at
tending assumption, obstinacy. i'm
practicability and delay be recog-
nized, and let us find the big prac-
teal unselfsh way to do our part.

stitutiOn contemplates l would

Europe and of the earth, proposing
that understanding which makes
us willing participant in the
conservation of nations to a new

self-reliant when offering friend

Both the New York Times and the
World are aghast that after voting

FUTURE OF MINING.

Living in a mining camp in its mi
tial stages is to live in an atmosphere
of hope; for, discounting the few pes
simists that are always present, there
is the buoyant spirit of youth the
elemental outdoors, and the absence
of the cluttering business of the city.

ATTACKS ON SENATOR BORAH
OUT OF PLACE

The republican party is now engaged
in fight to restore popular govern
ment and the return of stable indus
trial conditions to the end that the
people of this country may enjoy the
rights. privileges and prosperity
which have ever been maintained I'M
der republican rule and which have
Invariably been denied under demo-
cratic. In this great conflict the
republican party of Idaho is expected
to do its fun duty just as it did in
winning the great war. In the pres
ence of the great object to be attain
ed, there is no time to cherish and
aggravate personal differences among
those who are honestly striving to
accomplish the same end. TO do so
means to jeopardize the victory that
now seems assured through dissen-
ton in republican ranks. Personal
grievances, petty jealousies and persls-
tent fault finding are paltry matters
compared with the great issues in
volved in the campaign. These may
be well founded. but the time to settle
them is after the victory is won. not

If Cox should be elected president,
the highest aim of his administration
would be to carry out the ideals of
Woodrow Wilson. Following a confer
ence with the president Immediately
after his nomination. Mr.. Cox said:
What he Woodrow promised, 1 shall
it elected endeavor with all my
strength, to carry out" That means
that he would again present the league
of nations covenant to the senate for
ratification without change, and that
he would also continue the policy of
playing politics in dealing with the big
questions that must be solved in order

OF course we appreciate the efforts
of the state treasurer to keep the peo-
pie of the state thoroughly informed
regarding the finances of the state and
the fidelity with which their interests
are being guarded. Both these pur-
poses seem to be accomplished, at
least to the satisfaction of the incum-
bent. by the semi-annual statements
issued by the treasurer But since
the people pay for printing and mail
ing the statement, its impression would
be more favorable if some of the care
exercised in handling the funds was
devoted to a revision of the mailing
list. For instance. no less than five
copies of the treasurers report of July
came to the Miner, each individually
addressed and bearing a 2-cent stamp.

NAVY YARD WAGE REPORT
READY FOR Mr.. DANIELS
Secretary Declares Law Is Not
Against Granting Increases
Near Election Time.

Secretary Daniels expects to re-
ceive the report of the navy yard
wage board today or tomorrow and
to take final action after due con-
sideration. He stated today that an
erroneous impression prevailed that
the law prohibited any increase of
wages in navy yards within sixty
days of a national election. The
fact. he said. was that the law in
question simply prohibited Increases
in the working forces at navy yards
within the period specified and had
no relation whatever to wage In
! creases.
He made it clear. also. shat any
general increase in wages under
present conditions, necessarily would
result in reductions in the working
force as the department was obliged
to keep within the limits of appro-
priations. AS a general policy he
favored increasing the pay of the
more efficient. employees and dispensing
altogether with the services of the

boats are operating off the Atlantic

OF Civil war days They are bringing
in liquor instead of war supplies, ac-

So stupendous is the task of patrol
ling the coast that, according to the
commissioners office. it can only be
made effective by an appropriation
vastly in excess of the one now at his
command
Many of the blockade runners are
operating between Cuba, the Bahama
islands and the vast wilderness of the
Florida everglades and keys. On al
most inaccessible islands are great
caches from which liquor for the boot
logging market is drawn.
