Charles H. Jackson testified before the
the right of Reed Smoot, of Utah, to a seat
Question. Do you know anything about the pol
itics of Idaho?
Answer Yes, sir; 1 am chairman of the Demo
cratic party there.
Q. You were in charge of the campaign last fall?
A. Yes, sir
Q. How long, Mr.. Jackson, have you given at
tenton to political conditions in Idaho?
A. I have engaged in every campaign since 1894
O. AS a matter of public and political history
what subjects have agitaed the minds of the people
of Idaho, particularly in the last few years?
A. The great question with us in Idaho has been
the growing power of the Mormon church in its in
reference in state affairs.
Q. And has that been generally or only locally
discussed?
A. 1t made the paramount issue in the last
campaign 1t the one subject which the Demo-
Gratis and the independents discussed
Q. In what particular forms has this question of
so-caled Mormon interference in state affairs ex-
pressed itself?
A. By the visits of the apostles of the church
residents of Salt Lake City, coming into Idaho
and directing the people of their faith how to
should vote such ticket and the desire of the church
authorities to have them do so.
Q. And what legislation has been effected or
sought or threatened by this so-caled Mormon in
vasion?
A. The matter became of vital interest two
years ago. when the apostle, John Henry Smith,
to Boise while the Idaho Legislature was in
session and there procured the passage of resolu-
ton through the Idaho Legislature providing for
submitting to the people at the next election the
question whether constitutional convention should
be held for the purpose of taking out of the state
constitution that clause which prohibits polygamy in
the state. During that session of the Idaho
Legislature, John Henry Smith promoted secured
the passage of act which provided bounty on all
sugar raised in the state during the years 1903 and
1904 CThe Mormon church owning the sugar fac
tories.) These two measures were and are today
attributed to the active interference of John Henry
Smith.
Q. Now want to ask you, Mr.. Jackson, how do
you know that the purpose of the resolution calling

Political Control by the Mormon Church.

United States Senate Committee investigating
in that body, saying:
convention was to eliminate those provisions from the
constitution and not for some other purpose?
A. Apostle John Henry Smith stated to people
in Boise that he desired from the consti-
tuition of Idaho those clauses Objectionable to
people"
Q. You may state briefly what is the ground of
belief that the Mormon church defeated Governor
Morrison for denomination
A. In Idaho we have twenty-one countless of
which six are absolutely controlled by the Mormons
The Mormon counties voted entirely for Mr. Good
ing; and whatever the Mormon church desires in
Idaho is carried out 1t is impossible for any man
any party to go against the Mormon church in
Idaho, whether he is Republican or a Democrat
Q. You mean that it is impossible to go against
them?
A. [ mean that, unless the Mormon church sup
ports the individual, you might as we'll give it up.
There is hope for you The situation in Idaho
in regard to Mormon interference in politics had
been known up to that time practically only to the
leaders of both parties. All of us who had cam
pagned in the state aware that Mormon officials
Mormon priests apostles, had come into Idaho
during the different past elections and had influenced
the people. 1t matter known to the poiti-
of both parties that it was absolutely necessary
to secure the Mormon support in order to be success
full in the state Both the Republicans and the Dem
ocrats figured on how best to do this both in the
selection of candidates and in the preparation of the
platform When, however, the proceedings before
this committee developed the fact that polygamy
was being practiced, think of the men in Ida
no began to examine into the situation much closer
Up to that time we had treated it more as a parti-
political question. After that time we treated
it as public question outside of politics. I was
chairman of the committee on resolutions of the Ada
County convention, which prepared the first express
ion in regard to polygamy and church interference
in politics. [ was delegate to the Weiser conven-
ton and there the fight the adoption of this
resolution which introduced from nv county,

Bassett stated that if this resolution was withdrawn

self, one of the leading Mormon officials of Idaho

himself to go to Salt Lake City and see President
Joseph F. Smith and ask him not to interfere longer

Doan's Kidney Pills cure the cause
OF disease, and that is why the cures
are always lasting. This remedy
strengthens and tones up the kidneys,
helping them to drive out of the body
the liquid poison that causes back
ache, headache and distressing kidney
and urinary complaints. Scotland
Neck people testify to permanent cures.

to be applied to the wax pot on a
shoe machine. These are used about
tanneries also. Instead of running
a steam pipe to remote corner Of
the shop to heat a kettle, electricity
does the work without any loss Of
power in transmission. Electric tree
ing and finishing irons are in daily
use in shoe factories. Electric irons
are also used for finishing leather.
The electric vamp creaser is q new
device. All the modern electrically
heated tools are equipped with rheo-
static control so that the operator
can regulate the temperature exact
ly as required.
The health of workmen needs SER
ious consideration in every plant
and it has been proven that the en-
ployees working in an electrically
equipped shoe factory where the air
is not befouled and vitiated with ker-
osene or gas stoves can do more work
and do it better than they did under
the old conditions. Gas or oil flames
consume large amounts Of oxygen
and make the air bad; this impairs
the health of the workmen, lowers
his efficiency and decreases the stand
ard of the product. The electric
tool improves the sanitary conditions
of the workroom and the electric
ventilation fan insures plenty Of
clean and fresh air. The electric
blower is also of great advantage to
the tanner to keep a current Of air
through the drying loft.
As the temperature OF the electric
tools is constant the workmen waste
no time in heating the implement
and can give all their attention to
the details of the work. When cleo
trio tools first came into use they
produced such an excellent finish
that it was attributed to the electric
ity itself but the engineers say this
was only the result Of placing per-
feet tool in the hands Of skilled men.
With the rheostatic form Of control
the temperature cannot change and
the greenest hand cannot spoil the
leather.
The shoe industry is one OF the lat
est to be conquered by electricity
and the model shoe factory of to-day
is fully equipped with electrically
driven machinery, electrically heat
ed tools; is lighted by electricity and
fully equipped with every modern
convenience from the telephone to
the electric elevator.
