Idaho, and that he had before hin

of one of the most remarkable crime
of the age. No one can fairly say tina
any other governor would not hav

and part OF Idaho have been livinl

industrial war The mine owners hav'
stubbornly resisted organization an'
fought the miners at every turn. Az
though | never have believed and can
not believe that the Western Fedora
tion of Miners or Its officers were re
sponslble for any OF the crimes charg
ed to II, still both mine owners anC
miners have committed acts of vio
lence and disregarded laws. The an
ger OF one has only Influenced th'
anger of the other. Wise people should
try to learn lesson from this grea
struggle and each side endeavor |,
recognize the other and lay aside pas
differences and live and WORK together
in the development of the west, The

urge conservatism, moderation ant
toleration for the future"
