TDAHO consists of a number of hope
full but lonesome communities bound
together by & state election. 1t Is
one of the largest states in area, but is
so sparsely settled by railroad depots
that when a statesman in a northern
county wishes to visit his constituents
in the southern part of the state, he has
to change cars four times and borrow
right of way through two neighboring
states to get there. Thanks to the tele-
graph and the magazines, however, all
Idahens speak the same dialect, eat the
same kinds of breakfast food and get
mad at the same variety of oppression by
Wall street.
Idaho has $4,000 square. but Ny no
means flat miles, and has $4,000 people,
or one Tor each quarter section. How
ever, over 10000 of these people are
crowded together in Boise, the capital
and metropolis, and other thousands have
massed together in POcatellO. Lewiston,
COur dAlene and other BIB towns with
hOWitZer voices. Thus great many
square miles in Idaho are deprived of
their Tightful four inhabitants and it is
possible to wander for hundreds Of miles
in the central part of the state without
meeting candidate with petition or a
man who wants to borrow a match.
Idaho Is the last stopping place on
Transcontinental trains before the recall
Is reached. 1t is 400 miles long and two
miles high in spots and most of it Is only
