STEUN ENBERG
Assumes All Responsibility
For Idaho Trouble.
A UNION LABOR DEMOCRAT
Answers the Infamous FalsphOOd Put
Ont by MCLean's Enquirer.
STATE OF IDAHO Is RESPONSIBLE

Says the Governor In Lettor 10 Secre-
tarr Root OF the war department for
Th.t Alleged "BulI Pen" In which
Miners Are Said to Bs COnflned.
The attempt of Mr.. McLean's paid
"labor leaders" to make it appear that
the Mckinley administration was re-
sponsible for the alleged confinement
of Idaho miners in a bull pen and
for use of United States troops in that
territory, has met the fate of the
many other fakes which Mr.. McLean's
Enquirer has given birth to in this
campaign.
The state administration of Idaho is
Democratic. The present governor,
Mr.. Steunberg, is lifelong Democrat
and was elected on the Democratic
ticket He is also a trade unionist, be-
ing member of the Typographical
union of Boise City. Disinterested
men have stated for publication time
and again that the state administra-
tion of Idaho, and particularly Cover
nor Steunberg, is entirely responsible
for the present condition, which is be-
ing criticized by Mclean Democrats.
The repeated ignorant criticisms Of
these Mclean Democrats finally
aroused Governor Steunberg, who is
evidently man of nerve, and he vol
unfairly wrote letter to Secretary Of
War Root, under date of Oct TO- 1899,
of which the following is an extract:
while it is not necessary to inform
you of the relative positions of the
state of Idaho and the general govern
ment in this matter, as this status is
clearly defined by statute, still it may
be proper, for purposes of general n
formation, to add that the STATE OF
IDAHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL
THAT HAS BEEN DONE IN SHO-
SHONE COUNTY, RELATIVE TO
THE CALL FOR TROOPS, THE AR
REST, DETENTION AND CARE OF
PRISONERS, THE REGULATIONS
UNDER WHICH THE MINES CAN
AND HAVE BEEN OPERATED
FROM THE TINE OF THE INSUR-
RECTION UP TO THE PRESENT
TINE, AND THE REGULATIONS OF
ALL MATTERS CONCERNING THE
EMPLOYMENT OF MEN IN THESE
MINES, ALL OF THE ABOVE MAT
TIERS HAVING BEEN UNDER THE
IMMEDIATE SUPERVISION, CON-
TROL AND DIRECTION OF THE
OFFICERS AND REPRESENTA-
TIVES OF THE STATE OF IDAHO,
AND NOT IN ANY WAY OF THE
FEDERAL TROOPS. l FURTHER
STATE THAT THE STATE OF IDA
HO ASSUMES AND ACKNOWL-
EDGES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR
THE MANNER IN WHICH AFFAIRS
ARE CONDUCTED IN THE COEUR
DALENES so LONG AS MARTIAL
LAW, AS PROCLAIMED, PREVAILS.
1T should be stated here, however.
that these men (the prisoners) have
not been held under or by reason of
indictments upon the part of the state,
but because they were men who we
could not permit to be at large under
the present condition of affairs in
state grand jury, and whom we desired
to try, escaped prison a few days be-
fore the regular term of the court. at
which time all preparations had been
made to try them"

HIS LABOR LEADERS.

Mclean IL Suspicious Of Them aud works
His Enquirer CORRESPONDENTS.
The following telegram was sent tc
every correspondent of the Cincinnati
Enquirer:
cincinnati, O., Sept. 23.-Please
send by mail list of trade organiza-
tions in your town, with address OF
secretary.
(Signed) ENQUIRER"
The above Is significant. The fact
is there is trouble at Mclean head
quarters because of the demands for
money by the Secret service leaders"
who have undertaken to deliver the
labor vote to MIR. Mclean. Moreover,
Mr.. Mclean prefers The Enquirer cor
respondents for work ordinarily as
signed to the campaign labor bureau,
because he thinks he can trust them
more than his labor lieutenants.
Mclean is deyoting a lot of atten-
tion to the officers of certain labor or
ganizations. He does not pretend to
argue the issues before the working
men and agree to abide by their de-
cision. He simply hires number of
so-called labor leaders at stated sum
per day, who are expected by secret
work toA bring about so-called indorse-
ments of Mclean by labor organiza-
tioEs. The character of this secret
work" is well known to the Republic
an state committee, and is generally
understood by the self-respecting la
boring men Of the state. who comprise
the overwhelming majority of organ
lied labor.
Mclean wants an up-to-date list of
the officers of trades unions for his
own peculiar purposes. He has boast
ed among his rich friends of what
money will do with organized labor,
and is trying to prove the truth of his
boast.
The organized labor of the state,
however, understand Mr.. Mclean and
his methods and present indications
are that he will not realize we'll on his
investments in alleged labor leaders.
rne future OF prosperity Is now en-
tirely in the hands of the people of
Ohio The Republican party gave it
to them by wise legislation. A vote
to keep that party in power will be an
expression of appreciation OF prosper
ity. A vote for the Democratic party
will endanger good times.

WHY VOTE THE REPUBLICAN,
TICKET2

To insure the continuance of ma
tional prosperity.
To maintain an honest and staple
currency in which all men have con-
fidence.
To retain our sovereignty in the
Philippines, and protect the Stars and
Stripes from its enemies.
The Republican party brought pros
perity to this country, and it alone can
continue it. History proves that pros
percy forsakes the country when the
Democratic party is in control of ma
tional affairs.
A vote for the Republican party is a
vote for prosperity.
The fear of change in our financial
policy from the gold standard to the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
at the ratio OF 16 to brought about q
financial panic in 1856. We don't
want a repetition of that panic. A
vote for the Republican party will pre-
vent it.
The Philippines came to us accord
ing to the requirements of the consti-
tuition of the United States, by treaty
with Spain, ratified by the senate.
President Mckinley is bound by his
oath of Office to maintain peace, order
and rightful sovereignty in those new
possessions. Aguinaldo, with his war
riors, Is trying to scare the country
out Of its constitutional rights He Ia
assisted in this seditious work by lead
ers of the Democratic party. The Re
publican party refuses to be intlmi-
dated out of the country's rights, A
vote for the Republican ticket this
fall will be an endorsement of the Re-
publican patriotic policy.

She Upheld Her Dignity.

Some of the colored folks are bound
to maintain their dignity. One of these
ladies was employed by a wealthy
Louisvillian who swore by the whole
sale. Economy was no object to him
when it came to cuss words, and he
scattered these pearls of speech over
all subjects. The cook was a past
grand mistress in her art. She knew
what she knew and could turn out
dreams from the skillet and oven, but
she had ideas of her own dignity.
"One mawnin'," she said, Il done cook
a elegant brekfuss Dere was chicken
an taters, an beat biskit, an coffey,
an muff'ns, an dat man he came down
stairs an he do talk scandlous. l lis

cuss dat, an he mumb'l to hisself, an
jes' couldn't stand hit. l marches
out an says: Sab eff you don't like
dis hyar cookin', say so, an goes, but
l amt gwine to hear you cuss me an

Hyar, gal,' says he, I likes dis
cookin' Wot you mean bossin' me
when l cusses to my own wife?"
OATS all rite l says, nifty

AN since den," declared the colored
upholder of her rights and dignity,
cole marse jes' stuck on my cookin',
an Use de only pusson on de lot he

The old man is right. When you
get a good cook grapple her to you
with hooks of steel, even if you have
to leave off swearlng-Loulsvlll

If there is anybody who don't like
good times they should accept John X.
McLean's rag baby and stun it with
Billy Bryan's silver capsules. Nothing
win prevent great prosperity around
the world, and greater prosperity in
this country than any other country
in the world but a destruction of the
public credit, such as is proposed by
Bryan and Mclean and other people
of great mouths and great stomachs
for wind.

A Slight Fight in Republican Ranks.

1t has been known for some time
that there is quiet fight going on in
the ranks of Sumner county Repub-
licnas. Major Ferguson is the
leader of one faction and A. A.
Richards of the other. For many
months Andy tried to make the
major believe he was the cause of
him being made postmaster after
Andy found out he could not get it.
HIS statement worked for some
time, butat last it was discovered
that Andy was not for Major Fer
guson nor was he for him any time
during the contest. Senator Baker
had the naming Of the postmaster r
at Wellington, President Mckinley
having turned the opportunity ov =
to him and away from Caeher Z.
Long who had been louul a lu.t
dozer and unreliable On ;ea,~tti
his action of the Hutchinson post
office, and when Baker discovered
Major Ferguson he was well pleased
with the discovery of suitable man
in the Republican party in Sumner
county who would take the office,
and one who no charges had been
filed against. So with a little in
vesdgation Major Ferguson was ap.
pointed postmaster and Andy and
Long rushed over to the major:
office to congratulate him on the
compromise, and that they had
turned to him when it was found out
that Andy could not secure the
plum. Now it turns out that the
major has more influence with the
powers at Washington than Andy
and Long. He will have more to
say about the census superintendent
than any other man in the Big Sew
enth as Senator Baker dotes upon
what the major has to say and will

1t seems as though the VOICE
sprung the trap last week when it
touched Mr.. Savage up on his speech
at Wichita. 1t was a good speech,
we'll wOrded. We did not know that
Andy Richards wrote it for him, bat
we touched the spring that loosened
the trap and let Andy unIavel him
seif. He is like phonograph, good
repeater. He has repeated the verse
of the "Pltts and Hackney gang"
until it revOlves like the verse of
"Three cent slip for a three cent, a
two cent slip for two cent, one
cent slip for one cent fare. Punch
brother, punch with care, punch in
the presence OF the passer ger" did in
Mark Twain's mind until he thought
he was going crazy before he could
get som9 one else imbued with the
words and take it up when the magic
words would leave him and the other
fellow would be repeating them. Bat
Andy is not so fortunate. No one
else takes to his Pitts. Hackney,

keeps it up He claims he has dis
