Various reports have come to the

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
X UNDER THE NATIONAL X
X CAPITOL, By ]. E. Jones. X
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.

Direct Primaries VS.. Convention
The national managers of political
parties are undoubtedly giving an at
tentive< ear to the suggestions from
the highest political sources, favoring
the return to the system of nominal
ing candidates for offices by party
conventions. New York state will go
back to the old system this year, and
in Maine both parties have declared
in their platforms for the adjustment
of direct primaries and a return to the
party convention system. In Mime
sofa there has developed a scheme of
county delegate representation, and
Wisconsin, which leads the van with
progressive measures, holds many
conferences" that have as their pur-
pose the steering of the primaries.
A great many party managers are
advocating return to the old methods
for the principal reason that they are
convinced that the great increase in
numbers of independent voters" is
tracable to direct primaries. The
statement is given every impetus that
the most powerful political newspa-
pers of the National Capital can fur
nish that-to quote the Washington
Post: "Demogogy never has had such
a sway as it has enjoyed since the d.
rect primary threw open the door to
men who previously might have
knocked but never would have been
permitted to pass the threshold" The
scverest critics of the primary sys-
tenn declare it was secured under the
pretext that it would put the govern
ment back into the hands of the peo-
pie" but that in operation it has re-
placed the real statesmen at Wash
ington with commonplace men. When
the primary method was accepted in
Pennsylvania, its supporters declared
that it would be "the end of Penrose."
But after the first election the great
leader in Keystone state politics said
that lit is so easy to handle that l
wonder why we ever opposed it."
Senator Penrose secured his most
triumphant victories under the direct
primaries.
1t is very clear that most states will
soon face the question of returning
to the old convention system. New
York state is leading the way, and
eventually the issue is sure to become
a live topic in most parts of the
country.

Service Alone Counts.

EFFICIENCY in office should be
- perpetuated. There are objections
of course, to political heritage. Some
times a man can outlive his usefull-
ness. But when any public servant
has capably and conscientiously dis
charged his duties, the public should
see to it that the public continues to
get from him the service that he can
give. And the only way is to re-elect
him to office.
One of the fundamental objections to
democratic government is the fact that
really competent men will not bother
with political offices. That is not an
axiom but is, nevertheless, regretably
too frequently true. 1t is one of the
unfortunate penalties we endure for
the sake of free and representative
government
Doubly necessary is it, then, that
when a really capable man seeks pub
lie office, the public should see to it
that he obtains it and retains it. Just
such a man is E. G. Gallett, present
state auditor, who, despite two terms
already given to Idaho, is asking re-
election.
By all means he should be re-elect-
ed. Mr.. Gallet is competent, is hon
est and has done worthwhile things
for his department and the state of
Idaho. Third term objections are
mere buncombe in a case of this kind.
Idaho voters should see to it that Mr..
Gallet is nominated and elected. They.
themselves, will be sole losers if he is

form of subsequent investigation"
of conditions, he delayed the day of
settlement of our relations with more
than 100000 people. But it is
doubtful whether he succeeded in con-
vincing anyone to his long-established
forms Of belief. While General Wood
has gotten along very well with the
Filipinos-it has been principally be-
cause the people of the islands are SO
confident in the justice of the Am
erican people, that they are not in
clined to quarrel with any propositions
put up by the governor-generals we
send them.
But the Filipinos are determined to
pull General Woods monkey-wrench
out of their independence machine.

A Dry Tariff
Debate.

Naturally the man who is making
a speech regards it as important that
the audience should be large and at
tentative. Even United States sem
ators are addicted to this standardiz-
ed form of conceit. How is one to
interpret the complaint of Senator
Harrison of Mississippi, who paused
in the course of his tariff speech to
survey the empty seats, and to OBJ
serve: almost every day in the
tariff bill debate the sergeant-at-arms
has to go out and arrest senators in
order to have quorum" 1t is true
that it has been necessary to repeated
ly roundup" the senators and COM
pei their attendance during the de-
bate. The use of the word arrest
merely indicates the degree of resent
ment of an Grating senator because OF
the apparent lack of attention given
by his colleagues to his speech. But
aggrieved memory is a tickle bird
and it is not unlikely that Senator
Harrison may be arrested" to com
pei his attendance at speeches deliv-
cred by other senators. After all,
someone really has to make tariff
speeches-and that entails the neces.
sity of someone else listening to what
is being said.

Can't Lose Genoa.

Evidently the delegates to the
Genoa conference adopted the Yankee
custom of taking along their pocket
knives so that they could white, and
visit, and wait. The 1eisurely manner
of their procedure indicates that their
principal concern is to coax, cajole
or reason the United States into com
ing across" 1t seems to be somewhat
OF question as to how long the Genoa
proceedings will be prolonged in the
hopes that America will relent of its
position of non-participation in .Eu-
ropean economic affairs. While the
president and Secretary Hughes are
apparently adamant to the suggest
ions of joining the Genoa pow-wow, it
is nevertheless very obvious to OBJ
servers in Washington that the admin
istration is following the reawakenine
OF the new Germany and the new Rus.
STA with great deal of interest. Rus
STA is negotiating with the European
nations, and the soviets are establish.
ing certain trade relations. These
new ties may prove immensely advan
tageous to the European nations, anc
the United States may lose the Rus
sian advantages unless our countr,
gets into the game. These are reasons
why Secretary Hughes is so profount
whenever Russia is mentioned in hi
presence.

Know the Facts.

IN setting forth his arguments in
favor of ship subsidy which will
encourage the development of an
American Merchant Marine, assure
commercial eminence in peace and "be
our guaranty of defense in case that
peace is disturbed, President Harding
declares that our shipping question is
not sectional matter.
The main features of relief proposals
now embodied in bills submitted to
Congress are summarized briefly in the
Presidents speech of February %, as
follows:
I'm lieu of discriminating duties on
imports brought to us in American
bottoms it is proposed to take 10 per
cent of all duties collected on imports
brought to us in American or foreign
bottoms, and create therefrom a mer-
chant marine fund. To this fund shall
be added the tonnage charges, taxes
and fees imposed on vessels enter
ing the ports of continental United
States, also such sums as are payable
to American vessels by the post-office
department for the transportation by
water of foreign mails, parcel post
excepted.
"Out of this fund shall be paid the
direct aid in development and main
tenance OF an American merchant mar
inc.
Il will not attempt the details of re-
quirements or limitations save to say
that all vessels thus remunerated shall
carry the United States mails, except
parcel post free of cost; and that all
such remuneration must end whenever
the owner of any vessel or vessels
shall have derived net operating in
come in excess of 10 per cent per
annum upon his actual investment and
thereafter the owners shall pay so
per cent of such excess earnings to the
merchant marine fund until the full
amount of subsidy previously receiv-
ed is returned to its source"
President Harding estimates this
program would cost about $l5,000,00O
the first year and might eventually
cost $30,00O,000 year.
Further as an indirect aid to our
merchant marine the President sug-
gests that government officials will be
exDactad IN travail -, A.,a.:oo. oL:1~
that the army and navy transport SER
vice be discontinued; that there be
preferential rail and steamship rates
on through shipments in American
vessels; that the railroads be permit
ted to own ships engaged in foreign
trade: that the monopoly of coastwise
trade be extended to the PHILIPPINES
that certain proportion of immi-
grants sail be carried in American
ships; that merchant marine naval re-
serve be established.
The foregoing summarizes the con-
structive program for placing our
merchant marines on sound basis
which will enable it to meet foreign
competition and relieve the govern
ment from the huge losses now in
volved in the efforts of the United
States Shipping Board to operate
ships.
The chief weakness of the United
States is upon the seas because of our
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1922-05-16

neglect our merchant marine. This
proposed plan is step in the right
directions to correct the situation.
