A SHOWER BATrl
Henri Rochefort in speaking
of the surprise that Japan is
giving the western world by its
sucesses over the Russians, calls
it "The greatest shower bath to
its vanity ever received by west
ern civilization. " This is a terse
expression of a very large and
important truth. Our civiliza
tion while it has much to be
proud of, also has some traits it
rc-ld do Well l get rid ei. As
seen by others the most disgust
ing trait of western civilization
is its vanity. This leads the
people of Europe and the Amer
icas to treat all other peoples as
inferior to them, and too often
in their dealings with them they
not only put on unnecessary airs
but act as though the people of
other races, or as our people put
it thuBe of inferior civilization,
are not entittled to I e treated
squarely and with common
honesty and ordinary politeness.
The people of this region
came very near having a very
big object lesson of the incon
venience and cost of this vanity
and self claimed aupenority.
Many years ago, when the In
dians of Northern Idaho, North
eastern Oregon and Washington
were gathered to make treaties,
locate reservations and large
concessions of land to the whites.
The whole object of the gather
ing came very near being defeat
ed because, in making a council
house out of willow brush and
pine poles' the U S commission
ers not once thinkiig, but the
Indians accorded to them the
superiority they had always
claimed as if by inheritance,
and in arranging seats for them
selves had them elevated some
three feet above the seats con
structed for the Indian chiefs to
sit upon. The Indian chiefs
objected saying" they came to
talk as - free men ' to -other free
nieu and as equals not as infer
iors, and if they were not to be

regarded and treated as equals
they wouU go borne. And
home they would have gone but
for the tact and ability of Will
iam Newall, a mountain man
who bad great influence with
the Indians.
Today ships are taking light
cargoes of our produce to China
because the Cb inese have threat
ened to quit trading with a
people that does not treat them
with respect and ordinary
politeness yet our . people, in
their vanity do not feel as
they have done anything out of
the way to inferiors.
i
A few months ago it was
rather a mooted question
whether or not the nomiuations
for United States senator and
congressmen would be made by
the people or whether that part
of the primary law would be
overlooked. There is no ques
tion today however but what
with the rather disturbed con
ditions in the state, that the
wishes of the peopU will be re
spected and they will be per
mitted to choose i heir nominees
for national representatives.
It is quit probable that one of
jtneeuects of the new primary
law will be an increase in the
number of independent candi
dates. This will doubtless be
the case more especially in
county tickets, where personal
acquaintanceship will enter
largely. This new primary law
is going to make quite a change
at first, until the people become
accustomed to the new order of
making nominations.
