AS an evidence of the harmony that
is prevailing in the united democratic
marty. the democratic national COM
mittee Is pointing with unconcealed
pride to the cooperation of Governor
Judson Harmon, Speaker Champ
Clark. Representative Underwood, Gov
ernor Baldwin and Governor Foss in
the campaign. These men were all
active candidates for president on the
democratic ticket The fact that an
other man was selected at Baltimore
has made no difference to them. Gov
ernor Foss is campaigning in Vermont
in behalf of the democratic ticket;
Speaker Clark and Representative un-
derwood have already taken an tlce
mart in counsels of their party, and
Governor Baldwin and Governor Har-
mon will take the stump after Sep
tember 1st, and make as many
speeches as may be required. Cover
nor Marshall will go to Maine on Mon
day and Mr.. Underwood will come to
New York the last Of September and
speak in adjacent states every day
until November's election.

Every blind child in the school for
the blind at Fort Gibson costs the
state $270 each year. An examination
of the inmates of the school by State
Commissioner Of Health j. G. Mahr dis
closes the fact that forty per cent of
the inmates might have preserved
their eysesight by means of the proper
treatment at the proper time. No more
noble or commendable work is being
done by the state today than the work
of trying to prevent the misfortune of
blindness. No such work was under
taken in Oklahoma before statehood.

confronted him as he began his IN

Every case of typhoid casts the state
or one of its citizens $l55. The state
department of health is teaching the
people Of the state how to prevent
typhoid by removing unsanitary CON
ditions. Under the efficient super
vision of Commissioner of Health J..
O. Mahr the state is now paying al
most as much attention to the citi-
zens as has been paid formerly to the
live stock of the state. No provision
for the preservation Of public health
was ever made prior to statehood.

who are farfhest away. The po-
sition taken by the Cottonwood
Chronicle and the Sites Signal
indicate that in their desperate
desire for a county seat, the pol
iticians of the town of Cotton

with the country north of the
Clearwater, and have promised
county seats to Kamiah, Kooskia
and Sites. They must either
stand or fall together, and it is
our purpose to, in a truthful and
above board manner, inform the
taxpayer and voter as to the
real game, also it's consequence
if allowed success, so that they
may take measures to protect
their best interests in ample time.
There is not one valid excuse
for a division of Idaho county at
this time, while there are many
good reasons that effect the tax
payer and voter why our county
should be kept intact as it is to-
day.
We are sincere in this, and we

A SENSIBLE STATEMENT.

George ID. Stanbery, one Of the
substantial and widely known
farmers of the Winona section,
was in town Wednesday of this
week ON business. Mr.. Stanbery
says his section was visited last
Sunday by a good rain minus the
hail received in some other sec
tons, for which great blessing he
is more than grateful. And, :"
added Mr.. Stanbery IF we can
now eternally and everlastingly
snow under this chronic county
division proposition, my cup will
be full to overlooking. How any
tax payer outside Of the town
that is directly interested in be-
ing made county seat can hope
to be benefited by voting to
have Idaho county divided up and
make the same people support
two county administrations in
stead of one, is beyond my under
standing. Will two sets of coun-
ty officers cost less than onee

can figure it out any different
than that if one set of officers
cost the county certain amount
annually, that two sets of officers
at the same salary will cost Just
twice as much? A new county
will also require new buildings
which have to be paid for by
some one. And certainly no sane
person will claim that dividing
the county will increase the num-
Der of taxpayers or the number

vision along the Clearwater. +"
Nothing more untrue was ever
written, for irrespective of par
ty or politics every effort is be-
ing made by us to keep Idaho
county intact, at least until such
a time as the population and fl
nancial standing (not would-be
new county officials, or county
seat boomers) is increased to
justify a division along lines best
fitted for all.
The present issue is division
or No Division" and the result
will be either our Idaho county in
tact as it is today, or the splitting
up of it into three counties. We
will have either one strong and
healthy county, or three weak
counties with population of
about 1900 votes each, supporting
three times as many county Off
Gals as we now have for the same
territory. Any one can reason
out whether there is economy in
this or not. What we need most
in Idaho county is more people,
rather than more county officers.

from Cottonwood, that citizens
are too far away from the county
seat, and those who make this

To Taxpayers and Voters of Idaho County

In the Chronicle, issue of July
18TH, and also in a circular let
ter sent out from Cottonwood,
some of the state ments made are
worthy of answer; the balance
OF the statements are weak, space
filling arguments without head or
tail.
Answer to the few that are
deemed worthy Of attention is
made only for the reason that
they are misleading and untrue.
The statement ID made that Ida
no county having one eighth of
the area of the state, is entitled
to one eighth of the state legis-
lature, and that by division into
a number of counties this increas-
ed representation can be secured.
In reply to this it is only neces-
sary to remind the voters that
representation in the legislature
is based on population only, and
unless division would increase the
population it could not increase
our representation; further if
three counties ar e created, we
will have only one member of
the legislature representing each
separate county, and each working
along separate lines instead of all
working together for common
cause as now.
The statement that the Lewis
county tax levy was less after
division than before, is also very
misleading, as it is well known
that the levy was reduced to one
half or less in ev cry county in
the state, while the assessment
was more than double under the
cash value assessment plan adopt
ed last year. The statement that
the Lewis county levy last year
was the lowest in north Idaho is
also incorrect; as Idaho county
levy was two and a half mills
lower than Lewis county.
1t is really an insult to the
intelligence of the voters to try
to mis-lead them in this manner,
and it is useless to try to- prove
by juggling figures that two or
three counties can be run with
no additional expense, as no rea-
sonable person will believe it.
Pledges made by candidates
against county division of any
