THE HERRIN MASSACRE.

Admittedly, long range observation
4 of a situation does not lend to the
most accurate judgment of the matters
at issue. Details are apt to be col
ored somewhat in the telling, either
through the press or through word OF
mouth or through correspondence.
Therefore, many mistakes in judgment
are made. But where facts OF the
most definite nature are set forth and
are not denied by any Of the parties
concerned, it is possible to size up a
situation even at long range with a
marked degree Of accuracy The re-
currences in the coal mining region
near Herrin, ILL.,, of recent date form
the situation that is calling for judg-
ment by all American people. The
facts set forth by reliable news gather
ers of the Associated Press, by officials
Of both civil and military authority,
by citizens, by striking miners and by
surviving strike breakers, so-called, are
of such a nature as TO constitute one
Of the most revolving pages in the his
tory Of the United States; and even
the perpetrators of those murderous
acts will themselves come to a reali-
cation of the enormity of their crime.
Those who massacred more than
score of human beings have written
black page, the like of which was
scarcely approached even in the dark
est acts of the World war; True, the
strikers and their sympathizers felt
they had a grievance against the men
who were taking the places of the
strikers in the mines; but it was
grievance which furnishes no justifica-
ton. of wholesale murders of human
beings, who had come into mob power
through overmastering numbers while
government agencies rested in almost
supine indifference to the occurrences.
The atrocities committed near Herrin
can find no justification. The Illinois
state authorities, having allowed this
sort of thing to be done through dila-
toriness OF some other reason, are
looked to for rigid investigation;
and If Illinois fails OF her bounden
duty the federal government must take
the matter up.

The person who wrote Bank Com
missioner Joseph c. Allen of Massacnu-
sets that your blood will be flowing
in the streets of Boston when we get
through with you at least gave Allen
the credit of having his full quota of
red corpuscles in order to make it
flow in the streets of the Hub city.
Incidentally, the threat was probably
made by a cowardly sneak who would
not have the courage himself to carry
out the threat and would be too pusil-
luminous to hire anyone else to do the
job Of opening the blood spigot. Al

THE PRIMARY IN PRACTICE.
(Gooding LEADER

(GOOding LEADER
In spite of the excellence in theory
OF the primary as a method to nomin-
ate. in practice these past few weeks
it must be admitted that the results
have been far from satisfactory. We
have the direct primary in this and all
lother counties of Idaho but the lists
Of candidates filed show the vast ma
jority of the party tickets in southern
Idaho to be without contests.
In practice we find that the largest
part of the nominations were made by
July l, a month ahead of the primary
This is decidedly true in GoOding
county Simmered down to actual
facts, there is only one contest for all
the county offices on all three of the
tickets The only real use for the pri-
mary election in this county this year
is to give the republican voters the
chance to say whether they want Ar
thur Bates or A J. Luckes for clerk.
For all of the other county offices,
the nominations were actually made
by the republicans in w. G. BisselFs
office the evening of June % and by
the democrats and progressives in the |
court house and in the Office of the |
Farmers Lumber yard. respectively /
on the evening of June 27.
The records show not only no con-
test. except the one noted but that |
two of the offices on the democratic |
and four on the progressive tickets /
are without candidates.
The very parties that are clamoring
loudly for the primary, in practice this
year in this country used the conven-
ion system to nominate their candi-
dates.
But if the majority of the rank and
file of the voters want the primary h
md are willing to pay for it even
though it is not used, we suppose it is
not for the party leaders of any party
10 say them nay.
