WEISER, Ida, Sept 9-If the old
saying that coming events cast their
shadows before them be true, the Nor
mons of Idaho and the head of the
church at Salt Lake City must have
seen their doom In the utterances OF
United States District Attorney Ruick
at Boise. in the lobby Of the Idauha
hotel, last Tuesday evening.
The warning given, emanating as II
did from one who represents and voices
the opinions and intentions of the Gov
ernment IN his section, must be taken
seriously, and tho hierarchy will do well
to heed the warning gwen it by Mr..
Ruick: They are not the mouthings Of
some bla atant district prosecuting at
torney who desires to gain a little
cheap notoriety for himself, but ema-
nate from the fountain-head of the
Government.
Mr., Rulck g assertion TO John Henry
Smith that be (Ruick) was for Borah.
and asking him (Smith) who he is
for, is said by those who know Mr..
Rulck and know his views TO havo been
made simply for the purpose of draw
ing Smith out. Ruick. il is we'll known,
was strong supporter of Judge Beatty
or the Federal court for Senator, and
he was thoroughly disgusted with Mr..
Borah when he made the combine with
the Mormons and Gcoding by which he
secured the Endorsement of the conyen-
tion for Senator
Brady VIII Be in Ring.
His assertion that the Mormon church
expects and Is working to defeat Du
bois at the polls is an open secret, and
1t is openly asserted that should the
Republicans control the next Legisla
ture, that Brady, in spite of the in
fnr hNr he. .
will appear before that body as candi
date for Senator That Brady was the
first choice of tho Mormon church for
Senator there is no doubt. The acqui
escence of the church 10 Borah s in
dorsement was simply subterfuge to
create harmony until after the election
AT the proper time, should the Repub-
hcans be successful, Borah will be
thrown down to elect Brady.
In one of their well-laid plans they
have signally failed. The expected
harmony has failed to matcrialize
Those who were Borah 8 friends before
the convention have deserted him since
his alliance with the Mormon church
and Gooding, and are now flocking TO
the support of Dubois. They say he
has always been consistent and they
know where to find him.
The Mormon and Gooding organs of
the State continue to brazenly assert
that there is no disaffection in the Re-
publican ranks in Idaho. This is as
out The disaffection extends from the
northern boundary TO the southern
boundary OF the State, and Is confined
to no one county or section,
VIII Throw on Yoke.
In, conversation,. with. a prominent
-ancher and Republican, for many years
citizen of Fremont, the strongest
Mormon county of the State. he stated
hat ii is his firm conviction that Good
ng will be defeated in that county, as
he younger generation of the church
,ave become tired of the yoke and will
his year assert their right to vote as
hey choose.
In Kootenai county, Judge Morgan,
or many years one OF the leaders of
he Republican party and man who
las large following, has bolted the
icket and has como out boldly for the
Democratic nominees.
In this Washington county the re-
-olt is fully as bad Men who have for
penly announced themselves as sup
,orters of the Democratic ticket. They
re sick of Mormon rule and bossism,
raft and corruption. Leading Republi
ans, Grand Army veterans, men who
houldered their muskets and fought TO
reserve tne Union, are taxing tne
tump for the Democratic ticket and
dvising their old comrades and Re-
ublican friends to indorse the party
hat is working TO secure for them
rec ballot, and protection from an or
anization that seeks to control the
olitics of their State in order to fur
her the interests of the Mormon
hurch and make its clutches on the
tate still stronger.
Republicans. do not be deceived by
eports cmannting from hired organs of

ion, but look about you, and you will
