| lying u 1mpudence TO parents and
teachers, a very g%rievous affection
which seemed impossible Of cure by
the best skill and advice. These are
a type of a hundred other evils which
yield to~this new method of treat
ment. You will notice that each one
has it's basis in moral disorder of
some kind, and I have no doubt what
ever that every moral delinquency is
~remediable in the same way.
The method by which this moral
healing is accomplished is plain to
every student Of psychology, but it
is not easy to explain to others. The
point of great interest to you and
me, ordinary people, is this: There
seems to be in every human being
what is called a sub-consciousness, or
s1blimal self. In other words, a
substratum of morality-a foundation
moral nature. 1t is to this funda-
mental moral nature that these heal
ers appeal. When the man afflicted
with the cursed habit of drunken
ness applies for relief, he is put into
q hypnotic sleep, which frees him
ron the ordinary cares of everyday
experience. While in this state OF
sleep, this moral nature of which ]
have been speaking is awake and is
appealed to, strengthened and in
sIructed. The drunkard is told of the
goodness of God, of His desire to re.
deem a man from his evil habits. A
moral stamina, an appreciation Of the
beauty and power Of Gods righteous
ness is put into this sub-conscious
) self. And the result is that this good
implanted, overcomes the evil. TIL.

County Chairman DR.. Wood
burn of Ada county yesterday
appointed a list Of delegates to
60 to the Wallace convention.
The appointment was made at
the written request Of a num-
ber Of Democrats. In making
the request these Democrats
claimed that "The county con-
vention which chose delegates
to Wallace and Twin Falls failed
to pledge the delegates to sup
port the platform and nominees
Of the Wallace convention and
that the delegates elected by
the county convention attended
the Twin Falls convention and
refused to recognize the regu-
larly constituted authorities Of
the party, the state central
committee; refused to recog-
nize the chairman Of the Twin
Falls convention, who had been
regularly elected by the dele
gates thereto, and instigated a
riot on the floor of said con-
vention and bolted the same,
and thereafter elected a pre-
tended set of delegates to the
national convention at Denver.
The claim was also set forth
that said pretended delegation

milton at the Denver conven-
tion, and the duly authorized
authorities of the Democratic
party of Idaho were upheld in
