The County Convention.
On Saturday, September 3, the
democratic county convention of
Idaho county will meet for the
purpose of nominating county and
legislative officials for the ensuing
campaign. The convention will
comprise a membership of 158 dele
gates. This large body of men, if
they are guided by good judgment
in the selection of candidates for
the several offices, can nominate a
ticket that will be simply irresist
ible at the polls. Let the delegates
come to town prepared to place in
nomination the very best men they
can think of. A convention is
called for the purpose of giving
every precinct in the county its
chance to present the name of some
favorite son for a place on the
ticket. Unfortunately, the dele
gates, as a rule, do not assert
themselves, and it sometimes hap
pens that a few men have to do all
the detail work of organizing the
convention and also to place the
names of candidates in nomina
tion, and when this is the case the
delegates go home with the wrong
idea firmly fixed in their minds
that a few men have bossed the
convention. As a matter of fact,
the men who are compelled to do
this work would much rather take
a back seat and let the delegates
do their own work; But they can
not sit still and watch the conven
tion drag along without doing busi
ness.
to
ty
of
Let the delegates come to the
convention with the idea that they
are representing the democratic
party of the county, state and na
tion. Let them use their vote
freely against candidates whom
they deem unworthy. In all cases
when in doubt about a candidate,
it is a safe rule to vote against
him and thereby give the party
the benefit of the doubt, just as
you would do in voting upon a can
didate in a lodge room.
In times past tlie democracy of
this county lias placed upon its
ticket men whose candidacy was a
farce, and the results show that
such candidates can not obtain the
full democratic strength at the
polls. Your average democrat is
a pretty independent citizen who
controls his own vote, and un
worthy or inefficient candidates are
pretty sure to be rejected by the
rauk and file on election day.
Give us a good ticket composed of
honest, upright, competent and
reputable citizens, und the demo
cratic party is invincible at the
polls. Nominating speeches should
betaken for just what they are
worth, and not be allowed to stam
pede the delegates into uuwise
nominations. There are plenty of
substantial citizens in the ranks of
the party scattered all over this
great county, and it is the duty of
delegates to present the names of
such citizens in their respective
precincts and to submit them to
the convention, in order that the
best material may be selected.
The legislative ticket in particular
needs careful attention, and men
of standing in the count}' should
be selected to represent the people
in the halls of state legislation.
Judge Parker Accepts.
The speech of Judge Parker ac
cepting the presideutial nomina
tion on the democratic ticket,
marks him as a uiau of strong con
victions and firm believer in the
administration of democratic prin
ciples as a means of adjusting ex- i
isting difficulties brought upon the
people through the class legislation
of the republican party.
Hiß declaration that, under no
circumstances will he be a candi
date for reuomiuation, will estab
lish a new aud desirable precedent
in our political history. There is
no doubt that every act of Presi
dent Roosevelt has been inspired
solely with the view of succeeding
himself and the public business has
Buffered in consequeuce.
"In speaking of the Colorado
labor troubles Judge Parker said:
-•"The essential rights of liberty and
property are not only given to the
citizen by the constitutions of the
I several states, but the states are,
by the fourteenth amendment to j To
the constitution of the United
States, forbidden to drive any per
' J r
son out of them without due pro
In referring to the trusts Judge
! Parker says that they have been
made possible by the protective
tariff poli- tes of the republican
party, which have given them a
monopoly • of the home market,
and thereby enabled them to op
press the people by exhorbitant
prices for the necessities of life.

The Democratic convention has
finished its work and has presented
to the people a ticket headed by
Henry Heitfeldt for Governor.
This county was the first to endorse
Senator Heitfeldt for governor, and
we believe the people of this coun
ty will ratify this endorsement
with a large majority.
The other members of the ticket
are strong meu.
The result of the convention was
not known here until too late for
extended comment, therefore we
are forced to postpone further re
marks until our next issue.
At a receut vote polled in the
New York Stock Exchange by the
members, Roosevelt received 307
votes against Parker's 103. This
should dispel the idea that the re
publican press has been trying to
get in the minds of the people that
Parker is a Wall street man.
Parker will look after the interests
of the common people and the
magnates know it, hence they are
afraid of him. He is too well
known by the Wall street gang for
them to have any fuith in the story
that lie will look after their inter
ests as well as Roosevelt.

Democrats, be Democrats, j
To the Editor of the Free Free: I
The political contest this year
between the two great part.es to
your scribe, present« an interesting
Attitude in national affairs. It
will be conducted this year on
higher plains than any previous
campaign.
We observe that there is a very
marked era of good feeling between
the parties and between sections
which have not been approached
since the days of Madison and
which ended by the stormy admin
istration of Jackson. The issues
dividing the two parties are neither
clearly defined and certainly
not radical. Both Democrats and
Republicans are committed to the
gold standard, both profess to favor
tariff revision, both are willing to
grant freedom to the Filipinos at
some future time.
Both parties have candidates of
exceptional character. The time
has not come when swords and
spears are turned into plowshares
and pruning hooks, but there will
be good times and good feeling amid
the strife for votes and a more
generous hope for the future, re
gardless of whichever man wins,
as Mr. Dooley cleverly says that
"after all, the great issue before
the American people nixt Novim
ber will be, are there more repub
licans than dimmccrats, or are
there not?" The counting of the
votes will be close enough, we ven
ture, to keep them both guessing.
In our state campaign the peo
ple can decide between a new bill
of fare and harmonized democracy
or a dish of lamb, ram, sheep or
mutton with sugar as a dessert.
In our coming county conven
tion, to be held Sept 3<1, let us uot
forget we are American citizens;
what we want is men who will
stand for principal and that the
other fellow is just as good a citi
zen as we are and is laboring just
as hard to do his duty as he sees it,
and lay aside all bitter personal
feeling that so often disrupts and
defeats the ticket. The county
convention is no place to grind
personal axes, sharpen knives or
open up old sores. Be democrats
and observe the old maxim of
"Equal right for all special privi
ledges for none". We are pledged
to the cause of the people conHe.
crated by the name we bear, and
let us not sink to the contemptible
degeneracy of hypocrisy usurping
the best in man.
If good clean men, men of hones
ty and force of character, are not
uamed at this convention there
will be a political upheaval by the
people that will be felt for some
time.
The primaries is the place to do
your fighting—not at the conven
tion. Let your sentiments crystal
ize at the primaries by electing
meu who represent you and not
any professional office seekers.
Yours respectfully,
J. Pulse.
