THE LIMIT OF TREASON.

Recently Judge llanfurd, of inc United States district court |, for the Northwestern district of the state of Washington, refused iO admit to citizenship a number of Socialists. who, when qurS- toned, frankly admitted that they did not believe in or were they in sympathy with our form of government. These men dcclar- cd they would not fight for the United States, or had they any more regard for the flag than they entertained for any other piece of cloth. The action of Judge Iianford has caused much comment and most generally of a highly favorable character. What business have foreigners coming to this country to apply for citizenship, who have no re- gard for, and, in fact, are Op- posed t0 our form of govern ment, our institutions and our flag? Men who would refuse to htl'ili lht ltlt III 'pSt VI Il''t This country has always extend rd warm welcome l0 the down. troddrn of other nat ions, or tn those who preferred to cast their lot with Us and become of us. These people We have aSSimilat- cd and will continue io aSsimi- late. We can haN" no care for, nor should We tolerate. the in tluX of those who come here lo fear down and not upbuilh. Some provision of law should be made tO cXpatriatc those of our citizens who are opposed tn our dcm0c- racy and avOWcdly have no re- SpccL for our flag. Liberty is we'll and good, but license. when it. af- fcctS our future welfare, should be cut with short ShrifL and it can br done in no more circciual way than Io add to the Siringrncy of our immigration laws and the discnfranchiscnrnt of the dis loyal. When Socialism attempts iO tramplr down Inc bars which exist between nations. Oblitpratc nationality. fear down those things buildrd ai the cost of so much life anal money, il is high lime American citizens take them in hand In leach them inc duties owed by guests ln hosts and iO denmark the line fo which they can gn with the admonilion: 'ThuS far and no flIrilIrr.

3 That the Republican state central
committee Is getting desperate even OF
making a respectable showing In the
campaign and that they are not so well
pleased with their success in getting a
decision whose effect was to disfran-
chise a large number of the voters Of
the state except as those voters may
write in the names of the presidential
electors and candidate for congress. is
shown by the fact that they have In
duced a postmaster of the state to vio-
late federal statute and to make him.
self liable to dismissal from his posi-
ton through the solicitation OF funds
for campaign purposes from federal
employees.
A general cry for help from the
"Federal Brigade" has just been mailed
out from headquarters In this city. 1t
Is in the shape of a general circular
letter addressed to postmasters, postal
clerks and other federal employees ask
ing them to contribute to the Republic
can state central committees Golfers.
There is no doubt but the offending
postmaster who has been made the
agent for the state committee. and the
state committee itself have all violated
the law and are subject to punishment
and the postmaster subject to dismiss
sal from his position.
Z A copy of the letter has been secured
and will be turned over to the proper
federal authorities with a formal de-
mand that action be taken to enforce
the provisions of the law which have
been violated by this method of forcing
contributions to the Republican cam
paign fund.
AS the letter admits and as every
one knows the Republicans this year
have not been able to make the usual
combines with legitimate business
merely because business men generally
know there is no prospect of success
for the Republicans in this campaign.
The special interests in Idaho are con-
tributing more largely to the Demo-
cratic campaign fund than the Repub-
lean because they realize that, al
though both parties are entirely sat
isfactory to them. the chances for sue
cess are better for the Democrats than
for the Republicans and they know
that in the closing days of the cam
paign they can throw the Republican
vote to the Democratic candidates and
thus, as they think, make success dou-
bly, certain.
The Offending Letter.
Postmaster S. M. c. Reynolds of

tied. 1t is not known in what manner

she wandered on down the waters Of
Deer creek for 10 miles without seeing

made for herself through the woods.
For 1S miles she rode and walked

went away Ill but came back feeling
greatly improved in health. When seen

dress at Gooding and closed with one
delivered at Buhl.

he was attacked by G. H. Martin. Pro-
gressive candidate for governor. Gov
ernor Hawley said he had vetoed the
measure and was proud Of his action
in SO doing. He read extracts from the
BILL pointing out what he termed its
absurdities. He showed where II

sions to have afforded a public office
for every voter in the state. Continu-

mental alteration. and declared that,
had he signed 1t. he would have been
committed to a home for the insane or
feeble minded. He closed his argument
by stating that he had always favored
a public utilities commission and that,
should he be reelected and such q bill,
properly drawn. be submitted to him,
he would gladly affix to Il his signature.
