top of his ticket.
1t Is hard to vote a scratched tickst
by SO doing. and all Progressives will
vote badly scratched ticket and so
will most other people. The only in
teligent way to vote Is by putting a
cross after the name of each candi-
ticket.
Progressives are warned against ac-
cepting or believing advice given from
unknown or unfriendly sources. The
enemies of Borah have shown they will
stop at nothing to accomplish his de-
feat and his friends must be doubly on
their guard lest they be deceived into
voting against him or into not voting
at all.
The instructions given in the sample
ballot in the Capital News are abso-
lutely reliable. Any Instructions given
contrary to this advice is wrong and
shows that the person giving 1t Is
either ignorant or wilfully deceptive.
There is no other way to vote such 4
ticket as the Progressives desire to
vote.
1t has not been learned as yet who
,, authorized the printing of this false
ballot but good clue has been secured
and it Will be pushed with the intention
of exposing to public scorn the guilty
parties.
The invisible government IL des-
perate. The people are warned against
last hour movements. hundreds
of which are likely to be made. Some
of them will ostensibly be put out as
favorable to the Progressive cause,
just as this one was, but when finally
analyzed, 1t will be found that they
We're put out for the purpose of de-
ceiving and misleading some one.
The Progressive campaign was closed
last week. Nothing has been done by
and with the consent Of that party
which has not been published in this
paper and anything else put out
whether pretending to be friendly or
openly hostile, has been. or will be,
put out without the knowledge or con-
sent Of Progressive headquarters.
Not From Prosressives,
Neither the Progressive party, the
state headquarters, county organiza-
ton or any one connected with either
Of these organizations, is responsible
for this bogus ballot and do not be-
lieve that any individual Progressive
is responsible for it." declared State
Chairman Gipson today. 1T is a des-
Disable thing to do. Its only intent
is to deceive Borah's friends and to
cost him. if possible. the legislative
vote in Ada county. 1t shows the
extreme to which the invisible govern
ment which Is fighting Senator Borah
will go in order to defeat our remark
able United States senator. 1t con-
| firms the charge made by Senator
Borah that Lorimer money Is being
used in this state to accomplish his
defeat.
| Il appeal to all intelligent voters of
every party to arise in their wrath to-
morrow and sweep forever from power
the dastardly element that dares to
attempt to perpetrate this fraud upon
the electoral franchises of the people.
II repudiate the ticket and / ask no
Progressive in Idaho to vote an alleged
straight ticket. We can only vote a
straight Progressive ticket by placing
a cross opposite the names or the can
didates who are Progressive. These
are found mostly in the Progressive
column on the ballot, but the name
of French Is found in the Republican
column; the name Of Bowen is found
in the Democratic column and the
rames of the Borah electors. the state
legislative candidates, are found in
the Republican column. 1t will thus
be seen how very misleading and how
despisably deceptive this dirty trick
Is"
