THE IDAHO SCIMITAR.


into his support certainly resented in some
instances
The Ada county democrats who were doing the
bidding of the Mormon church, instructed theMor-
mons of Bingham county to get up contest. We
venture the assertion that there will be Mormon
from Bingham county who will have the temerity
to appear at Twin Falls to contest the most regular
and proper manner at primaries duly held IN every
precinct in the county and where hundreds of votes
cast We venture the assertion most positively
that of the lawyer advocates of the Mormons
in the Ada county delegation will appear at Twin
Falls to champion the cause of the Mormons whom
they duped into making the contest in Bingham
county, with the assurance that they would take
care, of them.
The Jack Mormon delegation from Ada county
has no idea of the contempt in which they are held
by the demotacy of the state They will find out
at Twin Fa5N pur advice to them is, to rehearse
their speeches, and to re-examine their methods
during this campaign. It will behoove them to be
ready with all the eleqN nSs at their command
They have made inNFous vicious campaign
based on misrepresentation. They have made per-
sonal attacks individuals and on the characters
of reputable citizens who stand high in the est-
nation of the people. Their Mormon controlled
organ has hesitated to publish any statement no
matter how false it was.
They will be in the open at Twin Falls, and they
must make their fight in the open. 1t is their in
tenton matter how badly they are beaten to send
a contestng delegation to Denver. The Mormons
demand this of them.
We suggest to them that they be prepared at
Twin Falls to make such showing that they will
not utterly disgrace themselves at Denver.
Some of the delegates from Ada county to the
Twin Falls convention have not supported the
democratic ticket during the last two campaigns.
They have intention of supporting the democratic
ticket in the next campaign. A resolution was Of
tered in the Ada county convention pedging the
delegates to that convention to support the demo-
cratic state ticket this fall and it very properly
voted down. The Ada county delegation know that
they will not control the Twin Falls convention nor
the Wallace convention, and they know that they
will not support the ticket which the democrats of
the state will nominate, and therefore they we're
perfectly consistent in refusing to pass a resolution
which pledged them to the support of the nominees
OF the democratic convention.
1t is stated that the Jack Mormon delegation from
Ada county is going to Twin Falls in Pullman cars
and with brass band We are not surprised that
heir campaign fund, after the most generous drafts
hat have been made on it, is still large enough to
enable them to enjoy this luxury Pullman cars
with dining car attachments and brass band music
will be a novelty to many. of the Jack Mormon con-
ingent who going to Twin Falls Ordinarily
hey would go in the smoking car and take their
own lunches The tithing fund is very handy
We earnestly invite the Boise edition of the
Oeseret News to herald in proper head lines the
brave going of the Ada county delegation and
lso with truthful head lines to give an account of
heir return.
