When a man of the admitted legal talents and fairness of Senator Borah who sat upon the national committee and heard all the evidence and the arguments declare^ that Taft's nomination was stolen, there is nothing left for Idaho people to say or to do but to accept his conclu sions as absolute fact. In addition, however, to the declarations of Senator Borah, the people of Idaho have the assurance of Senator St. Clair of Idaho Falls, who served on the credentials committee of the Chicago convention. Senator St. Clair signed, with others, a formal statement and protest de daring that a conspiracy had been formed before the con vention met at all to steal the nomination. Moreover, so far as we have seen, there has not been a single member of the Idaho delegation which repre sented the state at the national convention, who has ever stated that in his belief Taft fairly and honestly secured the nomination, or who ever denied that such nomination was stolen. Not even Heitman, an original Taft man, nor Hagenbarth, also a man with Taft leanings, nor Fisk, an other Taft man, has ever undertaken to say that Taft was honestly nominated or to deny that his nomination was stolen. Ex-Governor Brady was on the ground during the convention; he talked with national delegates from all portions of the country; he knew the admissions made by the Taft supporters that they were taking such delegates from the anti-Taft columns as were needed to give them the convention for Taft; he doubtless heard them state that their purpose was not to elect Taft but to beat out of the Republican party all those advocates of principles euding to magnify the people and increase their influence iu governmental affairs, and thereby to' lessen the power and influence of the special interests. Mr. Brady was there, and he has never said to the people of Idaho that Taft was honestly and fairly nominated, or that' he was the choice of the delegates elected by the Republicans of the nation to speak for them. Captain John E. Yates, senator from Ada county, was at that convention; he, too, knows what transpired there. He has never stated a belief that Taft was honestly nomi nated or a disbelief that such nomination was deliberately „.and wilfully and fraudulently stolen. In fact Captain Yates knows and believes full well that Taft was not the honest choice of that convention and that he was not hon estly nominated and will so declare C. C. Cavanah, a man known over the entire state as a devoted, conscientious Republican, was at Chicago and sat a part of the time on the national committee. He has never told the people of Idaho that he ever believed Taft honestly nominated and has never denied that such nom ination was stolen. C. W. Dempster, who came very near receiving enough votes to nominate him for lieutenant governor on the Re publican ticket, receiving several thousand more votes than did Haines, the nominee for governor^ was at the Chicago convention. Dempster will not tell the people of Idaho that Taft was honestly nominated and he will not To Enroll in the Progressive Party State Chairman Gipson wants to get in communi* /■cation with every Progressive voter in Idaho. Many Democrats and Republicans who wish to join have not had the enrollment blank presented to them and for that reason the attached blank is printed.

The Republicans of Idaho cannot disregard such an array of authority. They must know and must admit that Taft holds his nomination only by reason of the perpetra tion of the greatest fraud that can be committed in a free country—by a fraud against the Toting franchise itself, whereby the first step was taken in ^conspiracy to de prive the people of the power to elect their officials. frow, What is it the Taft people of Idaho are demand ing? THEY ARE DEMANDING THAT THE PEOPLE OF THIS STATE SHALL INDORSE THIS THEFT SMALL GIVE THEIR APPROVAL BY FORMAL VOTE TO THE ACHIEVEMENTS OF THE BAND OF CONSPIRATORS WHO CONSPIRED TO DEPRIVE THE PEOPLE OF THIS VALUABLE RIGHT—THE ONLY ONE REALLY WORTH MUCH TO THEM GUARANTEED BY THE CONSTITUTION, FOR IF THAT RIGHT BE LOST, THEN ALL RIGHTS WILL SOON BECOME LOST. So . insistent and so persistent are they in their de mands that this shall be done that they are making it a sole test of membership in the Republican party, and they have possession of the necessary machinery to make their demand effective. So insistent and so persistent is their demand that this conspiracy and this theft be approved as a test of party membership, that they will support not even the nominees of their awn party unless they come out openly and pub licly in such approval. How can the'Republicans of Idaho in the face of such evidence and in view of such a condition, continue to sup port the bosses, the machine and the organization that makes such demand? We do not believe they will do so That is why a new party has been organized and a new ticket placed in the field in this state. It- affords a com mon meeting ground for hoth Republicans and Democrats who wish better things in the politics of the state—who wish the people to have greater power instead of having that that they have taken from them—who wish effective ness and efficiency in public administration and who still have hope left of a better day. The old patties have had their ties, their associations, their hard battles and their won victories. These associa tions, the animosities, the bitternesses are hard to over come such that ohé can pass from one of those old parties to the other. But here is a party—A PROGRESSIVE PARTY—where both can find common ground and where both can begin anew and carry to a successful termination, the fight for the better things, the better officials, the bet ter government, the greater power of the people and the lesser power of special privilege. It is in this spirit aud foj this purpose that the Pro gressive state ticket is nominated in Idaho. The Evening Chit-Chat By Ruth I WO good friend» had quarreled. One, who Is of a passionate dis. position, completely lost her self-control and said many un kind things. When the thundercloud of misunder standing finally passed over and the sunshine of reconciliation began to struggle out again, the quick-tempered woman told her friend she was aorry for her bitter words, and then added cheerfully, "And now you'll forgive me and forget all that I said, won't you?" Whereupon the other woman answer ed, "Forgive you? Yes Indeed, I'll do that with all my heart, hut I cannot promise to forget because that Is be yond my power." The first woman called that an un gracious and relentless attitude. Do you? I don't. To me It was simply a truthful answer. Perhaps It might have been kinder for the woman to say that she'd forget all about It and thlnga would be Just as they were before, but It probably wouldn't have been true. In one of his essays Stevenson says, hate questioners and questions; there are so few that can be spoken to with out a lie. 'Do you forgive me?' Madam and sweetheart, so far as I have gone In Ufo 1 have never yet been able to discover what forgiveness means. Ts It still the same between us?' Why how can It be? It Is eternally differ ent, and yet you are still the friend of my heart."

The woman called her friend relent less. That was not fair. It Is not the person who cannot forget that Is re lentlesa; It Is life Itself and the laws of life that, are Inflexible. I may no more promise my friend that I will forget anything thun I may promise her that a deep out In my fleah will heal and not leave any scar. I may promise that I will put aoothlng medicine In the cut and bind It up and keep It from Irritation, and do all I can to make It heal without a scar, but cannot surely promise what will be the result. Hearts and aouls are quite as senil tlve as bodies. We would not easily allow ourselvea In a flash of temper to Bear our friend's body; why, then, be ao careless with hls heart. Why? Because we think that such scars can be easily obliterated; because we think we can say, "please forget" and let that end It. But we cannot.

In this way they can become efficient. land recommended (a sirloin cut from a grass fed beef), weighing three pounds, will coat today |n the neigh borhood of M cents; 40 years ago she purchased the same cut fn;- 2» cents, with a nice 'chunk* of suet thrown In. So It Is seen that a tender atrloln Is not always to be had but tough beef ■teaks may be made mere tender by mangling them. Pound on both aides. If you have no mangle u«e a dull knife or tho edge of a heavy plate. This breaks the fibers of the meat and though It will look ragged before It Is cooked It will draw together as soon as the heat contracta It. Orease the broiler well with suet and heat It, lay on the steak and cook It while you count 10 slowly, turn It and do the same with the other side; this Is to sear It and keep In the Juices. Now hold It farther from the coals or turn the gas lower. If you cook with it. so the meat will cook more alowly counting 10 and then turning until the steak la cooked to your liking. A one-inch steak will be rare done inch and a half In thickness requires 12 minutes to be medium well cooked. When done It will be puffed between the wires of the broiler and will offer some resistance to the touch. If you are not experienced enough to Judge this way, remove the broiler to the work table and make a cut In one side, but never teat cooking meat by plung ing a fork Into It, as this liberates the Juices. Steak must go at once to the table. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and cover with melted butter. Fried potato balls, straw, Saratoga or French fried potatoes may be served on the steak platter with the meat. If you have no broiler learn to pan broil your steaks. They are not so fine as when broiled, but are far su perior to fried meat. Heat an Iron frying pan and rub it over with suet. When It Is smoking hot put In the steak and turn every 10 seconds. If you like the flavor c f onions on your meat slice one very thin and fry it lightly In the fat from the suet and then put In the steak. For steak smothered in onions fry the latter very brown and keep them covered while you broil the steak. Place It on and then cover the whole wlthsa well-fit ting lid and let stand In a hot place five minutes that the meat may absorb the desired flavor.

For the Arst time hls own thoughts, rather than those of hls characters, have shaped themselves into a delightfully tender story and we see life, love, and re ligion, through hls eyes.

Its presentation of Ilfs Is as direct and forceful as "The Let ters from a' Self-Made Merchant to Hls Bon." Its style Is unlike the heavy stroke of a sword but 1» rather the skillful thrust of a rapier.
