Wherein have the people whom you
have sent into these great bodies OF the
government betrayed you?
"TooTHAcHE" PANIC LAST FALL.
Last fall there was a financial panic
of small extent; one of those sharp
what | call ''toothache" panics. Most
excruciating pain, with a plain remedy
in sight, as there is always of the dent
lists forceps to cure a tootache. So
there was a remedy to cure the panic,
and it was at the hand of the Republican
party and they applied it and it disap-
peared and it is only what you might
call long distance telephone panic. l
had a man in the last few weeks tell
me the panic is not past yet Where
is the center of the panic? Why, in Los
Angeles they are having hard times
You meet man from Los Angeles; no,
they are not having hard times there,
but they are over in Galveston. 1t is
always somewhere elsa long distance
panic-for today there is no panic.
Go out and look at those fields, those
trees loaded with fruit, and those trains
of cars taxed to their utmost capacity to
carry it to market such as the world
has never known. Yesterday, | stood in
an orchard between Payette and
Plymouth which the owner told me
would yield him thousand dollars per
acre profit, and he was trying to get men,
boys and women to pick the fruit for
market.
HARD TIMES? NOT AT PRESENT.
Hard times? With wheat at the price
it is selling now? Hard times? With
from sixty to thirty bushels per acre in
the state of Idaho? Hard times? With
crop of 100000 bushels of wheat on
the fields of Idaho. Hard times? With
clip of 25,O0O,OOO pounds of wool this
year? (Applause)
do not want to point you out as a
person for criticism, but man in the
vigor of his youth who talks hard times
in the state of Idaho has certainly made
mistake in the direction of his endeavol
