HOW TO VOTE FOR ROOSEVELT
Idaho Progressive Party Instructs Its
Friends How to Vote.

The following letter is self-explana-
tory and as the editor of this paper
desires to be fair, we give it space in
the columns of the Free Press so that
any of the people who may desire to
gressive ticket can intelligently do so.
Boise Idaho, Oct. II, 1912.
Editor Idaho County Free Press,
Grangeville, Idaho.
Dear Sir: The Supreme Court Of this
state has decided that the names of the
electors pledged to vote for Theodore
Roosevelt for president, and our candi-
date for congressman cannot be print
ed on the ballot.
The Progressives of Idaho will con-
tinue the campaign up to the last min
ute, asking the voters to write in these
names.
This letter is going to every editor
in this state. Many of you are bitter
~ opposed to the Progressive move
ment, but most of you in the past have
stood for square deal, and but very
few of you endorse the motives behind
the action which was brought to pre-
vent the people deciding fairly.
ask you to print this letter and
the accompanying instructions in or
der that the people may have a fair OPP
portunity to express their convictions.
No man need to be disfranchised by
this decision if he is informed as to
just what he must do. We ask you
to acquaint the public with the facts
in the case.
1 hope that every man in the news
paper business in Idaho will demon
strate that whatever his politics, he be
lieves first and foremost in justice and
fair dealing to the voter.
Yours truly,
]. H. Gipson,
State Chairman Progressive Party.

GROWN CORN
FROM KEOTA
John Deal Brings in Wagon Load of
Corn Which He. Sells at Us
Cents Per BuShel

Keota. Sept. 23.-John Deal. a
homesteader, last Thursday brought
into Keota probably the first load of
home grown corn ever offered for
sale in this town. He sold the load
to C. o. Dodder at IS cents per
bushel, receiving 1920 for it.
Exactly two years prior to the day
on which the corn was brought in
Deal filed on the homestead on
which the corn was grown, twelve
miles northeast of here.
The corn was planted with a
lister and was planted between the
date of May 4 and June s. Mr.. Deal
followed the lister Immediately with
a Campbell sub-surface packer. The
earliest planting made the poorest
crop, due partly to the backward
spring. although this may have been
due in a measure to difference in
the ground. Some OF the corn was
planted on wheat ground, some on
cane ground and some on last years
Deal thinks he will have
4 1000 bushels of corn in all.
Deal is scientific farmer. he
having been formerly employed on
the j. Sterling Morton farm when
MIR. Morton was secretary of the
United States department of agricul-
ture.
