FRIDAY, JULY 6, 1906 Perhaps an old German of Chi cago might tell some ancient his tory that would change the political history of the State. Idaho can point with pride to Congressman French in congress, and we feel that we voice the sen timent of a majority of the peo ple of Idaho, in the hope that he will be unanimously' re-nominated and elected to succeed himself. We would respectfully call the attention of the Board of Health or the Board of Commissioners to the unsanitary condition of the premises of several backyards, outhouses etc., in Silver City. It would seem as though some people have no regard for the cleanliness of their sur roundings until sickness invades their houses. Prospective candidates for county offices, in Owyhee County, stem to be plentiful, judging from rumors, but, as yet, we have but one announcement for publica tion, M. M. Krieg, democrat, for assessor. As heretofore an nounced, the columns of this pa per are open to all parties, at the same price per. Volume 1, No. 1, of the Mc Cammon Banner, is the latest ac quisition in the journalistic field of Idaho to reach our office. It is edited and published by H. E. Haines, late of the Glenn's Ferry Signal, at McCammon, Idaho, is typographically neat and replete with news of McCammon and surroundvg country. We Lust Bro. Ha'ues vvi'l be accorded bet t rt apport than was given lrm at G'f m's Fe v;. Politica'ly it w' advocate the policies of Re p lb ican'sm. We cannot help smiling at the frantic effoios of the Boise Re publican, in its opposition to the nomination of a U. S. Senator by the State Convention at Po catello. The only arguments put forth, so far as we have been able to leai.i, are, that it was never done before in this state; that there is no law providing for nomination of a Senator in con vention; that such action by a Sta\: Convention would be an as sumption of legislative functions end that the call for the State Con vention did not include the nomi nation of a U. S. Senator. We contend that the nomination of a U. S. Senator by the State Conven tion will be one advancing step to ward securing a direct primary law; that it would facilitate the dispatch | of business by the legislature; that' the opportunities for graft would . Oe lessened; and that legislative in vestigations for bribery, in connec tion with the election of a U. S. Senator, would be a thing of the past. As to the argument of as .. . , . , . , sumption of legislative functions, we pass,,as we are not constitu , , _ , , tionai lawyers. Perhaps the demo , , , crats, who have had the tementv IT „ „ to nominate a U. S. Senator in _ . . , , State Convention, might enlighten ! , . , . i us on this subject. I he argument : „ ! that the call for State Convention i ... . , , , aid not include the nomination of rT 0 _ .... Ü. S. Senatpr, is puerile. You might as well say that the legisla-1 ture had no right to enact the j Juvenile Court law because the! Slate Constitution does not men tion it. The public buildings bill, intro duced by the chairman of the chairman of thehousecommittee | at Washington last Monday, : carries a total appropriation of 21 million dollars, of which one hundred thousand dollars is for a building at Moscow, Idaho. The state penitentiary at Boise now has the greatest number of prisoners since the prison was first established. There are at prêt nit 235 enrolled, new st'el cells are being con st! jet A in this institution. Eighty .Tne governor's office has re ceived from Director of Exhibits Henry E. Dosch, of the Lewis and Ciark Centennial exposition, 91 go'd medals, 46 silver medals, and 44 bronze medals, to be dis tr.buf ed among Idaho exehibit ors at the Portland fair last Summer. 1 i ; He has ; Geo P.

A. R. unanimously passed a resolution asking that statues of Idaho's two most dis tinguished citizens, Geo. L. Shoup and Frank Steunenberg, be placed in the National Hall of Fame. This resolution should receive the ! endorsement of every organization I ! , j in Idaho —civil religious and poli tical. Both Shoup and and Steu nenberg were great men; Idaho will produce no better. Both rendered unmeasurable service to their be love! state, and one suffered death because of civic duty well perfurm ed. Idaho will honor herself by honoring the memory of her most distinguished dead.-Parma Herald There is one phaseof the political . x situation which The Enterprise be lieves that the Republicans of southeastern Idaho have failed to dulv and adequately consider, and that is the fact that itissoing to be ! i much easier to prevent the election : ! of a Democratic legislature with i VV.
