man
Senator Fred 7. Dubois of Idaho
said:
Local conditions are favorable for
Democratic success in some OF the
western states. Roosevelt is very
popular in this section and would
carry all the states west Of the Missou
ri river by large majorities, if it was
question of his personal popularity.
His party is weakened ano he Is
hurt by local troubles, however.
In Idaho the people are thorough
ly aroused over The Mormon question
4 The Democratic party of the state has
declared unequiyocalIy that polygamy
must be suppressed, and that the Nor
mon church authorities in Utah shall
not dominate the policies Of Idaho.
"It is an issue which affects our
homes and our citizenship. Our best
womanhood and manhood are involved
/ The dictation Of the church lead
ers in politics and the open rolyga-
nous living of the highest officials of
the church have become not only in
( tolerable, but a menace. The sup
port OF the national Democracy and
its unequivocal declaration in its plat
form will materially strengthen the
party in Idaho.
Colorado Situation Hurtful to Repuh-
icans.
In Colorado, the usurpation of law
and the harsh and indefensible meth
ods of the state authorities against
labor organizations have alarmed law
and order people. The Republican
party will suffer not only in Colora-
do, but in all the mining states Of the
far west on account OF the Colorado
situation.
In Washington state there is a rail.
road war more intense than the war in
Wisconsin.
"Ihe people of Washington have

escape treating people who were not

"A matron Of wealth was one Of Capt.
Rosts early patients. She was never
Ill, but eternally she feared that some
dreadful disease was about to attack her.
"One afternoon she sent for Rost
posthaste.. He found her in hrst-class

count Of the dampness It might be un-
wise for her to 90 to the theater that
evening. ,.s,. IT ...,,,.
