The fact that the 1'reeldrnt Is atrenuoualr favorlna the reciprocal I'Ctalatton: that Borah Is opposing It: that Idaho Republican ism Is all for Taft. presents an alto trether ludicrous political situation. The fart la Indisputable that Borah Is even more popular as a United states Sen ator than la Taft aa a Prcsldent- fteduclnc the situation from another an ale. the Itrpubllcana of Idaho are not for Borah for Vlre-t'realdent be cause of the very significant reaaon that they are for him for the Untied Plates ttenate. aa bis owo successor. Ills services are regarded a more ben-efl-lal to hla party and to hla stale as a Senator than ther would be as a Vlce I'resldent. eren If aane political rea son I or pointed to Borah aa the man. Te natural Inference of this situa tion leads to the logical conclusion that without regard to the President's favor able and the Senator's unfavorable vlewa on the subject of Canadian reci procity. Borah standa for enough other things agreeable to the Ideas 'of the Republicans of the state to justify the conclusion of bis success aa bis own successor tn the Senate. Taxation Should Ite Kqnltablr. "I am not agreeable." aars the Sen ator In his open letter, "to rote for a proposition which puts the farmer's products upon the free list and keepa what the larmer buys on the dutiable list." Again referring to the products of the soil of Idaho, the senator says: "If he Is not permitted to buy cheaper when he la compelled to aell cheaper, then he must Inevitably auffer: be forced from the farm Into more profit able business, and Idaho, whose basle wealth la her agricultural Interests, her rrultgrowere and slockralsers, must be one of the first to suffer." The following raatlgatlon of the Fed eral Ciovemment. making such extreme demands on the homesteadere of the West, la a thrust at the Kaat which will meet a heartv response In Idaho, whose land entrymen the Senator Is aiming to protect: "The American Congress, with a tenacity that Is hard to understand, makes It aa dlffcult aa possible for the settler and the homesteader to ac quire a home. We cling to the harsh old mle that a homesteader must live five years upon his homestead. In Can ada, he lives onlv three years and Is permitted to be absent six months each year." Although always a protectionist. Sen ator Borah has for a long time dis agreed with hla party, or that portion of It represented by the machinery of the United States Senate, of which his colleague. Senator Hey burn, la a dis tinguished tvpe. on the matter of the operation ot the protective tariff schedules. All Markets Should Be Protected. Paling from his return to the Re publican party from his brief alliance with the Silver Republican party move ment, he haa followed the lines of the policy of the so-called "Iowa Idea." In thla letter he emphastiea hla vlewa on thla subject by thla suggestion: "Free trade for the producer and protection for the manufacturer, an open market for the farmer and a protected market for the manufacturer, cannot ba Justi fied under any theory on earth. It Is. speaking wtth all due respect to those who view It otherwise, to mv mind the narrow, vicious, unconscionable selfish ness of Kastern manufacturing Inter ests generally, exalted Into a scheme of legallied advantage for one class over another. . . . The American market-place Is In possession of combina tions which fts the price of the ne cessities of life, regardless of the price st which they are purchseed from the producer." Toward the close of his presentstlon of these views to his correspondent, the Senator refers to a suggestion In the letter from his Idaho Inquirer to the effect thst he Borah) -cannot hope to succeed by opposing the Important measures of our Administration." His terse reply Is: "Well, we will let that matter rest for the present." As suggested briefly above, the cold polltl--s of the situation enters Into the eoiatlon. Should the force of the National campaign finally center on the Canadian reciprocity subject cither through the passage or the defeat of the bill now before Congress, there might be complexities In the Idaho phs of the situation as between President Taft and Senator Borah. In which event the latter, becauee of other Issues, would outweigh In popu larity the former. In auch contin gency. It might be that the result In the Kail of 11 would be that Borah would secure a-I.eglslsture to re-elect him. while the Presidential electoral ote of the state would go to the rVisncrscr. In other words. In this conflict, so fsr aa Idaho Is concerned, the President Is In Infinitely more pollt. leal danger than Is Senator Borah. Party la Iclloate Position.

It may be fairly concluded, even with the In creasing: tendency at loosening of par ty bonds, that the Republican party haa aa rUT 1 Z.04 malorltv.

The Brady defeat of last year waa the striking evidence of the fallacy of such Idea. From preaent-day observations. It appears that the prohibition ques tion would again be In Interest. Then there la the matter of revenue laws, a legitimate offspring of eiovernor llawley'a agitation throughout the state of the theory of a full cash val uation In the assessment of al prop erty. Furthermore, the control of cor porations of public-service nature will demand the attention of the people. Tbeae are all questions upon which men and women are inclined to think In tensely. All theae Issues tend to make "cranks" out of a great many voters to the extent of orehadowlng their otherwise natural political In clinations. With the heavy Increase In our pop ulation, the people are going to look carefully Into, the probabllltlea of good government, as close attention to the business of the people: open-handed publicity of all the affairs of state and the confining of the expenditures of the state to the actual necessities of all the departments.

That one of the bridge building companies had offered him a bribe was the assertion made by Commissioner Owen Woods, at the municipal com mission session today. Decision of the old pre-rerall Council In the matter of hiring Waddell Harrington to draw plans and specifications for a vertical lift bridge and bascule bridge over the city waterway, and plans and specifications for a vertical lift bridge and a baacule bridge over the Puyallup River waa emphatically upheld by vote of the Commission. Mayor Seymour moved this morning that bidders should be allowed to pre sent their own plans with bids on them, as alternatives to bids on the plans which were drawn for the city by Waddell Harrington. A long dis cussion followed. "One of those companies had a man here, who offered to fix It up for me so that If I would get those plans and specifications accepted by the Council I would be able to resign from the CounciL" said Commissioner Woods. "After that I wouldn't let him do business In my office, and pretty soon he left. That Is the kind of men who are trying to get In here."
