Ida ho, a* aeopnd-claa* matter, under Act of Uongreas of March 8. 1ST«. After all the republican dele gates from the various counties of Idaho have been chosen and after they have met at Lewiston and in their turn selected eight delegates to the republican national convention, pledged to President Taft, the question will still be unanswered: the choice of the majority of the republican voters of Idaho?" It will be the same in every other state where the choice of dele gates is left to a few men instead of to the rank and file—the whole electorate of the party. Genuine popular government extends to and includes direct nominations, and the time is coming when the people will de mand a national statute state laws legalizing their abso lute right to choose the candi dates they want placed on the as well as those they want put in office. Like many other states Idaho has no presi dential preference primary law, and, until such a law is enacted! the present unsatisfactory method of nominating a presi dent must be used.

There is lit tle doubt, however, that a few hundred dollars invested in iron pipes to replace leaky wooden mains in the water system would be money well spent. Plenty of water is more necessary than perfectly graded streets. Spring time and cleanup time are again at hand, and the idea of the city beautiful should have a place in every mind and be ex emplified in putting the streets and alleys and vacant lots in the neatest possible condition. BORAH DEFENDS PRIMARY Denounces the Caucus System in Politics. Senator Borah of Idaho, in a speech Id the seuate Tuesday, lu defense of the primary system, scored both of the great political parties for resort ing to personalities, to "drivel and bickering," in campaigns and for utter failure to give the people char and distinct issues as of old. He called attention to the great debates of Lincoln and Douglas with scarcely a personal allusion from beginning to end. Tb« senator said: "Corruption can not live under the primary sjstem, If meii h ive the courage, as they will ha-ve, to punish thosç who stand exposed. A primary system accom patnied by a corrupt practice act will make It impossible to control elections by the use of money." Senator Borah nenied that primar ies have disorganized parties. He condemned the old caucus system in politics and pronounced It the most ■"vicious, treacherous, subtle, venal Influence" ever operated to the detri ment of the p> iiple. our The Borah homestead bill, ducing residence from five to three years and allowing five months from claims, assed b y the senate recently, passed the house Wednesday. re leave of absence Idaho Guard Inspected.
