American pride in the attitude of this
country toward other nations. We no

ageous candor and convincing argu-
ment in support of our position Mr.

by Mr.. Hughes are prepared by him.

"then virtue would be on the front
page" And he offers as an example
the fact that while he has 5000 per

writes or talks much about it.
II is interesting exercise to imagine
time when wickedness would be
come dull through predominance and
virtue sensational through rarity. A
reporter would be sent post haste to
Harlem to investigate report that
John smith was uNlng happily with
his wife Another would seek out Mr..
Doe the Jersey City grocer. to sift a

up by robbers. The correspondent at
Mineola would ask Mr. Brown if it
were really true that he had not stolen

WALLACE NAMED IN HONOR OF
ITS FOUNDER.

In the course of an editorial on the
growth of Idaho during the past fifty
Years as given in a bulletin from the
census bureau, the Spokesman-Re-
view. of Spokane makes a surprising
misstatement regarding this city,
with the history of which Spokane
people should be familiar. The Spo-
kesman- Review says:
William II. Wallace. for whom
Wallace in the Occur dAlene
country was named, was the first
territorial governor"
William H. Wallace was the first
territorial governor of Idaho. but he
was not the man for whom this city
was named. At the time this city
was founded there was probably not
a man in the entire Occur d'Alene
district who could have given the
name of the first governor of Idaho
territory. This situation is account
ed for in the fact that practically the
entire population of this district at
that time had been drawn from other
and states through the
mineral discoveries here. men who
for obvious reasons knew nothing re-

Moan you their misery and struggles;

Lit you their dreams all come true!

Boom how they conquered the plains.
