"It holds that a sovereign state mnnn Iibuiiiimuad an error in the arrest and detention of Mover, Haywood and Pettibone on suspicion of being the murderers of ex-Governor Steunenberg. The officials who arrested these men and carried them from Colo rado to Idaho might have done wrong, and if so, they are amenable to the law, but the state of Idaho has done no wrong and can hold the men first suspected and now indicted ur.til they are either con victed or acquitted, if convicted she can do with them as the law provides. , The United States circuit court of Idaho has refused write of habeas corpus to Moyer, Haywood and Pettibone, and an appeal is now before the Supreme Court of the United States. It is to be hoped that the highest court will soon settle the question of whether or not the state of Idaho has the right to hold men alleged to have been Illegally deported from Colorado. The American people have confidence that the decision of the United States Supreme Court will be right and just, and the Western Federation of Miners should await that decision with patience and accept it ae loyal American citizens. If the farmers of Oregon do not have their fair share of men in the various elective officers from now on they will have no valid grounds of complaint. The primary election system gives the farm ers the fullest opportunity to make their influence felt. There are also a goodly number of candidates, including several of those who are farmers or are engaged in some branch of agriculture. There are more voters who are farmere than there are of any other occupation and eeveral of the ablest and most prominent candi dates are farmers, fruit growers, ect It remains to be seen whether farmers really wish to see farmere in office or are saying something they do not really mean when they complain about farmers not getting their share of offices. In other words it is now up to the farmere to vote as they talk or shut up. As primary day approaches the interest naturally Increases and everything now points toward a large primary vote. This is as it should be, while all changes at first are criticised, the benefits of this new system of making nominations are so great over the old method, that It is here to stay. The Australian ballot system was condemned by not a few during the first few years, but now the man who would euggest its abolishment would be looked upon as a freak. Thus it will be with the primary law. The people must do their own investigating and must take a great deal of interest in the primaries and they will, as soon as the system be comes thoroughly established. Statement No. 1, another year will mean an obligation binding upon the legislative nominees of the respecti ve parties, to support for the United States senate the men of their party who receive the largest number of votes.. It was never intended to mean ' anything else. No one should expect a Republican legis lature to elect a Democratic United States senator or vice versa. The pri mary law was not intended to disrupt political parties but to curb the power cf dictators and bosses, and to provide a method whereby a man with a sack can not corrupt a legislature as has been done time and time egain in this state.
