EDITOR BULLETIN:-I was some
what surprised to read the following
in the last issue of the gold-bug
organ:
W. I. Smith Is loud In his denuneiation OF the
leaders OF the Tuesday night secret meeting He
says the object of the meeting was srepresened TO
him. The fight, he says, is between the silver men
They will elect A. b. Clark regardless of who that die
tstorial eierlent put up against him. The majority
OF the silver men Is with the action Of the meet
ing.
About week ago the writer was
approached by certain Democrat
and asked to be present Tuesday
night at the Probate court room to
arrange for nominating village
ticket. / went. | found about 80
men assembled, and with the ex-
ception of one or two, all being tax
payers. After the object of the
meeting was stated, the nomina-
tions were made. Bro. S. was pres
ent and took an active part in the
proceedings and seemed particu-
larly pleased with the ticket nomi-
mated. He expressed himself in
very forcible language that he
would stay by that ticket.
A few nights after that he at
tended an opposition meeting for
the same purpose and became
party to that convention and now
declares himself for that ticket.
Now / wish to ask what manner
of man is this? Is he really re-
sponsible for his actions in either
of the meetings? Can his friends
with any degree of certainty tell
how many changes he will make
between now and election dav. Is
he taxpayer? Hasn't he antici-
pations of "pie" at the hands of
the new board? How much does
he contribute to the city funds in
proportion to what he has drawn
out2
/ would like to be enlightened
before election day, as have been
approached by him and after hearing
his gush | concluded he didn't
know where he was at, but had

To Female Voters.

Two years ago, in the towns
throughout Idaho, there was or.
gained women suffrage clubs and
especially was this true of Mount
ain Home. which was one of the
principal clubs in the State in num-
bers and intelligence. It's work and
energy was felt all through the
campaign-their watohwords being
we want equal rights with men; we
want to be allowed a voice in the
management of all town, county,
state and national affairs; we want
the right of representation by our
own sex on equal grounds with men.
The Supreme Court decided they
had gained these rights and priv
ileges.
The first recognition to be made
of that right in Gilmore county is
the placing of the name of Mrs.
Henry Dorsey on the Taxpayers
ticket as a candidate for Village
Trustee of Mountain Home. In
doing 80 her friends recognize her
ability to serve in such capacity;
we recognize her right to qualify for
this Office if elected. We also APP
preciate the fact that those she will
be associated with in Office are gen.
tlemen. AS to the governing of our
village affairs, who is more deeply
interested in our corporation and
the welfare of our town than our
mothers, wives anG daughters? The
opportunity is at hand. Do you
care to prove by your vote that you
were not sincere in your efforts
TO obtain equal suffrage and equal
representation? Do you wish to
show that you have no confidence
IN women when confronted with
an opportunity of placing one of
your own sex in an honorable posi-
ion? These are questions you
should seriously consider. Do not
De swayed from your oft-proclaimed
purpose by q few designing, unscru-
oulous, smooth-bore gold-bug poll
,icians.
While the position of village
rustee is not of vast magnitude, it
s certainly one of Importance and
,alls for persons of ability and of
economical disposition to conduct it.
n placing Mrs. Henry Dorsey on
he Taxpayers ticket we have a
whose long residence here
Ind whose interest in the improve
nent of our town from the time we
we're but a small scattered settle
nent deserves the kindest recogni-
ion from all voters, male and fe-
male. She is a heavy taxpayer,
in conducting her own
business affairs, benevolent and
charitable almost to a fault, econom-
cal, and whose ability to cope with
,ur best citizens in village govern
nent is recognized by all.
Lady voters, we leave Mrs. Dorsey
n your hands, feeling assured that
defeated it will be only because
he is a woman.
Vote the Taxpayers ticket from
OPP to bottom.
