Each Delinquent in Juve-
nile Court a Guardian.

The Mothers Congress will soon be-
come "the protecting mother OF the
District in real earnest. For every
child who falls into the tolls Of the law
1t will supply a guardian of its moral
welfare. This is the plan outlined Tor
its participation in the work OF the
Juvenile Court.
Society women and others who are
prominent In the work Of the congress
will assume voluntary supervision over
the children Of the Juvenile Court,
working In cooperation with the offi-
cfals. 1t Is the plan that one woman
will be assigned to a child and will at
tempt so to direct its conduct and IN
fiuence its morals as to keep II out Of

THE MORMON SCARE
and #
Jeweler

Elk River Sentinel: Whenever an
Idaho politician is beaten and does
not care to acknowledge that the
other fellow was simply more popular
than himself he lays the blame on
| Mormon domination" and charges
the Mormon church with political
plotting.
But its all poppycock. There is a
Mormon scare, but it Is only scare.
There Is Mormon vote, but only
where Mormon interests are involved
There would be no Mormon inter-
ests or Mormon vote but for the in
tolerant bigotry OF the ignorant yo-
kels who drove them out to Utah two
generations ago. The Mormons came
west poor, almost starving, and have
since been recruited almost wholly
among the poor. These converts have
been brought to regions, southeastern
Idaho among others, where they cou,i
have churches, schools and compan-
ionship Of their own faith. Their CO
re,igionists, working through the
church and various subsidiaries, have
striven to make their converts pros
porous and happy In modest way,
mainly in agriculture. To do 80 in
the tar west irrigation enterprises,
beet sugar factories, wooden mills,
canneries, condenseries, cooperative
stores and other enterprises have
been started and financed to success.
As result the whole membership
of the church is interested in the
success of these enterprises and vote
to protect them from those who
would do them harm.
Thus the Mormons are business
as we'll as religious associates, and a
political policy that may be Of en-
tire indifference to them from the
standpoint of religion may be life
and death matter to them as farmers.
In either case they are united. AS
farmers they vote against free sug-
ar, as churchmen they vote against
anti Mormons. Treated as are other
denominations the Mormons will act
ike them. So long, however, as they
are members OF a close-knit conn
nifty of interests there will be JUS
titled unanimity of vote.
Mormon domination" Is an ab
surdity because there are only about
20, 900 Mormon voters out OF the
states population Of about 100000
There are several other denomina-
lions that could outvote them In
Idaho
The Mormon scare Is too old and
too foolish to be even good joke.
