If the republican party of Latah county does not endorse the dirty record of
I platform repudiation why did the Moscow county convention refuse to con
I demn it? Why did that convention pass a resolution which carried with it a
I blanket endorsement of everything done by the republican party of Idaho during
the past two years? The delegates to the Moscow convention refused to condemn
anything, riding rough-shod over the protests of those who begged the convention
to go on recoid against broken promises and repudiated platform pledges. Rather
did the convention prefer to ignore that which is right, proper and honest, and
satisfied itself with delivering Latah county into the hands of the most disrep
utable political machine that ever disgraced our state, and trading off public in
terest for a mighty small mess of political pottage which neither Congressman
French norC. J. Munson will ever be permitted to swallow. But the county bosses
and the office-seekers of the party ordered the smaller fry to get into the Brady
Mormon band wagon, and—in they got. The deal included the indorsement of
Czar Heyburn, and the autocrat was endorsed. The program included the nom
ination of Notorious Jim Brady, and Brady was nominated. This precluded any
mention of platform repudiation, and the party in Latah coudty remained silent.
By omission the party in this county, at the demand of French and Munson and
David and the rest of the gang, condemned the honorable stand of Mullalley,
Jones and Wessels in the last legislature, when theBe men, by their fearless, faith
ful work in behalf of republican pledgee and party honor, were entitled to the
strongest and most emphatic endorsement the republicans of Latah county could
possibly have written. And the NewB will serve notice now that the party cannot
satisfy the people of Latah county by a tardy condemnation of repudiation at the
county convention at Troy Tuesday. If platform repudiation is wrong now, it
was wrong a month ago, and the political managers of the party pie-bitere cannot
fool the people by any eleventh hour repentence.
HANDED HEYBURN A BUNCH.
No sooner was the platform read at the republican county conventio 11 ' n
Troy Tuesday than L K. Strong of Moscow got the floor and offered the follo w > n B
amendment :

When Mr. Strong finished the convention went wild. Delegates yelled, and
it was plainly evident that the resolution was going to pass with a whoop. Plat
form Repudiator Warren Truitt jumped to his feet and begged the convention to
swallow their Americanism long enough to enable the resolution to be withdrawn.
Truitt said it would'"mix things up." Then Burr, of Genesee, arose and said he
would like to hear from Congressman French. Congressman French walked out
of the wings of the stage, and, taking the resolution by the nape of the neck, pro
ceeded to assassinate it. Mr. French advised the boys to stand by the man' who
said: "You may suggest, but you must not instruct ME." And so the republican
party of Latah county is now. by the action of the county convention, pledged to
support W r . B. Heyburn foi re-election.
Brady says he is not a party boss. Well, if not then what in the name of
political parlance is be? If he isn't a machine politician what constitutes one?
He stands up and openly excuses platform repudiation and yet brands false
charge that he is a platform repudiator Well, one thing the Newr will say is
that Mr. Brady must have an exalted idea of the gullabilily of the average repub
lican voter of Latah county.
Axel Ramstedt has been chosen county chairman of tae republican party
and will manage the present campaign. The people who are paying for Mr
Ramstedt's time will hardly approve of an arrangement that requires mnch of
this time. If Mr. Ramstedt has time to manage a republican campaign let him
devote it to his official business and dispense with the services of a $75 office
deputy.

One thing about Jerome J. Day is certain. He can be depended on to keep
any promise he makes, and if he savs he will work for state wide prohibition or
any other measure he will do it. Whatever else he may be Jerome Day is honest
and his financial condition is such that he has no necessity to sell his honor for à
paltry bribe. If Mr. Day goes before the voters on the democratic platform for
•tate-wide prohibition the Newa has no hesitancy in saying that if elected as he
will be, he will keep bis party pledges. If Mr. Day cannot conscientiously stand
on the democraic platform he is too much of a man to stay on the ticket.

COMPLIMENTS TO M "CRACKEN.
Boise Citizen : With the Republican!
gubernatorial candidate out after the
scalp of one of the Republican legislative
candidates in Ada county, and with the
latter standing pat that the Malodorous
Jim Brady is not entitled to the vote of
any honest man, the harmony in the
Republican ranks of Idaho looms up like
the proverbial building in a fog.
Here is the hot one the Idaho Falls
Register hands to Bob McCracken:
"Bob McCraken who was forced
upon the Bingham county ticket two
years ago and of course was elected with
the balance of the ticket and made an
ass of himself during the legislative ses
sion, moved to Boise soon after the ad
journment of the legislature much to the
satisfaction of Bingham county, has
worked himself into the good graces of
some of the would be pious people of
Boise and scratched in securing the
nomination from the Republican con
vention of Ada county by two votes,
now says he will not support Brady for
governor".
Charley Peterson, republican candi
date for probate ju< f, was teen in a
Troy saloon lobbying with other repub
lican delegates the night before the con
vention. Yet Attorney Peterson poses
a« a prohibitionist. It is too bad to see
Charles fall from grace just at the begin
ning of a promising political career.
