The Republican would warn the
people, particularly the republicans,
that the gang is working overtime to
create dissention in the ranks of the
republican party. Every possible
thing that can be done to create a
split is being done, with the hope of
winning through the division of those
the gang cannot control. And how
do they work it? By using their
stool pigeons and decoy ducks, who
are carrying the word to the republic
cans that this or that republican is
saying this or that against some other
republican, or is working aginst this
or that republican candidate, the pur-
pose of which is to create trouble
among republicans and by breaking
the republicans into factions to de-
feat very pronounced majority.
Therefore, let the people take
warning. Pay no attention to the
stories and rumors that may be circu-
lated. The gang are as good at lie-
ing as they are at manipulating their
political machine. Keep in mind

A WHISKEY ASSET.

The best asset of the saloon keeper
always has been the misguided en-
thusiasts who howl one way and vote
with the whiskey crowd. The pro-
hibition forces Of this country trotted
up and down in one spot for a humid
red years without accomplishing any,
thing until somebody woke up to the
fact that it took something more than
prayers and few old grandmothers
that knew nothing of practical poll
tics to get anywhere. Thoughtful
men and women at last woke up to
the fact that if they were ever to &C.
complish anything it must be in a
sane way, and that the whiskey inter-
ests had been playing the game sue
cessfully while the other side were
throwing away their votes.
Here in Clearwater county we have
a rotten situation. The law is openly
violated. Bootleggers are not me-
Tested. Officials that get drunk and
disgrace their official positions are in
Office because church people, and pro-
hibition workers helped to put them
there, end after these same officials
have shown their hand, and the facts
are clear, there appears to be de-
termined effort on the part of at
least one organization of women to
find an excuse at any cost to work to
keep Sheriff Harper and the booze
gang in power. A little later the
Republican proposes to expose this
kind of hypocracy, and to force the
whole gang to come out and fight
in the open. Men and women have
a right to vote as they please, and
do as they please, but an organ
ization that stands for one thing is
not going to do another thing and get
away with it. If few democratic
women want to work for the Blakes,
booze, Doodle and political cor
ruption, let them go to it. But when
they attempt to use the prestige of
grand and good organization to fur
Their their ends there will be trouble
for somebody.

John w. Eagleson of Boise, candi-
date for state treasurer, made Orofino
visit Tuesday in the interest of his
candidacy, and from what we can
learn he made lot of friends who
will give him their support at the
primary. There seems to be a pro-
nounced sentiment against a third
term for state officials; a deep-seated
sentiment that no man should home
stead the job, and that change is a
good thing for the public service.
Speaking of Mr.. Eagleson the Boise
Statesman of May 81 said:
John w. Eagleson of this city,
formerly county treasurer of Ada
county, and for years identified with
financial institutions in this part of
the state, is candidate for state
treasurer, subject to the republican
primaries. His formal announcement
follows: To the voters of the state
of Idaho:
| hereby announce my candidacy
and ask your support for the position
o. state treasurer of the state of Ida
no, subj Jet to the will Of the republic
can voters of the state at the general
election primary to be held Septem-
Der l, 1914.
l have been a lifelong republican
and believe in the principles of the
party and its ability to legislate for
the benefit of. the people. Its retire.
ment from power nationally has al
ways been fraught with instability,
chaos and disaster to the industrial
life of our people, while its ascen-
dency has always brought confidence,
business activity and prosperity.
Regarding my qualifications for the
position of treasurer, l have had 10
years experience in the banking and
commercial lines Of business and have
served my county four years as county
treasurer.
II elected treasurer will give my
entire time and best efforts to the
business of the Office in the interests
OF the greatest possible efficiency and
economy. Respectfully,
JOHN w. EAGLESON.

It cannot be said that Clearwater
county is made up of Office seekers,
not among republicans, at least, for
the truth is that scores Of republic
cans have refused to listen to the i'm =
portunities Of their friends to forsake
the even tenor Of their ways and hirt
with fame. Not on your life will
the brightest hopes Of political
preferment lure some of the best
farmers to desert their lands and
hocks, and become patriots for the
love Of the dear people.

INCOME AND OUTCOME

It 10 not enough to see that timber
companies are honestly taxed; after
the money is in the public treasury
it is Of some concern to the people
to have their money honestly expend-
ed. There is not penny to be vast
ed. Which brings US to the big issue
before the people Of the county today.
that Of extravaganza and incompe-
tency and graft. For what good does
it do the people to collect taxes if
they are squandered? Why should
the county funds, even though they
come from timber companies, be fool
ed away; why should county supplies
cost more than they ought to cost !!
Why should not tax dollar buy a.
much as a private dollar? The facts
are that tax dollar is not; the facts
are that the county has been skinned
on every hand, as, for example, ir
the matter of bridge plans. It cost
Clearwater county almost $500 fol
plans and specifications and = few
other things when the Security Bridge
Company is supplying this service
free to counties adjoining. VIII.
have our county funds been wasted f
this service? Why should Clearwate
county buy bridge plans and Latal
and Nez Perez counties get the sam
service from the same company TO
nothing? We defy anyone to SHOW
from tho records a single instanc
where either Of these other countie
have fever paid the Security Bridg
Company q penny for plans.
And the gang will shed tears an
explain that the timber companie
are paying every penny of the cos
Of the new bridges, and that the dea
taxpayers should not complain. Blu
the people are losing the money jus
the same, regardless Of where i
comes from. and county officials VIII
will waste or steal county funds col
lected from timber companies viii
steal any other funds they can find
pretext for getting their clutch
eS on.

SAME OLD JACKASS.

Once upon a time a cunning ole
jackass wanted to fool the people anG
brighten them with its power Of
destruction. So the poor old harm.
less thing disguised itself as a lion,
ard started out. Wherever it went
the people and beast fled in terror,
and this SO elated the ass that it had
to set up great braying. And that
gave it away. After that nobody was
afraid of the fool ass. And that is
why it is called an ass, and why
men who act like this jackass are
properly designated by this same
term. The Blake gang tool, who de-
sires to deceive the people, clothes
himself in the cloak of the republican
party, or in the guise of a decent
democrat, and goes out and seeks pub
lie office, will not fool the voters this
time. The people are not going to
take any chances. They will vote
for men who are known to be free
from Blake gang influences. The
people will not accept men with
Blake strings on them.
And it makes no difference how
good the candidate may be person.
ally. Good fellows have been serv-
ing the gang for the past four years,
ard the people will recall how siren
nously some of the present county Off
ecials, men who have been the most
willing tools since taking office, dis
claimed any Blake connections before
1.-The last election. Their protestations
OF independence were mere hot air.
and the records show it.
But remember what Lincoln said
S'You can fool some of the people all
of the time, and all the people some
of the time, but you can't fool all
the people all of the time. - And
many gang has discovered this to
their sorrow. The people sometimes
wake up and then the corrupt politi-
cal boss and the rotten political ring
goes down under an avalanche of
outraged public sentiment. This is
what is going to happen in Clear
water county this fall, and the
wave of public protest against Tam
many methods in Clearwater county
may sweep with it some really good
democrats.
But the really good democrat will
not care. The really good democrat
will care more about cleaning up
Clearwater county than he does about
being elected to any county Office,
and will welcome an opportunity to
throw of q political yoke that must
Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-07-31

that nothing but thsir own foolishnsss
can defeat the republican county
ticket this fall. II the republicans
lose it will be because they deliber-
atsly throw victory away BY petty d.
visions.
Try this: II somebody comes with
. story just ask them to write it down
and sign their name to it. II they
will do that then take it and look it
up.

THE PEOPLE DO CARE.

To be q good citizen is of far
moro Importance than to be a good
partisan. For, after all. political
parties are but the agencies through
which the citizens work to accomplish
the things desired. Experience has
shown that no party can long remain
in power without becoming corrupt
except where the people are alert and
take an active part in politics.. So
the great fact that stands out is that
eternal vigilance has always been,
and is, the price Of liberty, and that
= nation cannot long endure when the
people become Indifferent.
Not long ago a really good man
said: 1.-THE Orofino papers ought to
be made to quit this fighting. I"
Which means that, so far as this citi-
zen is concerned, he does not care how
public business is conducted; does not
care how much public money is squan-
dered; does not care how much county
officials may graft; does not care
when public officials abuse their
power and disgrace their positions
does not care anything about his
county, his state or his country.
That is what political indifference
means, and the man or the woman
who does not care when a newspape,
10 honest enough and fearless enough
to make fight for the people does
not deserve to have a free govern
ment, and is unworthy to enjoy / the
privileges Of American citizenship.
Every thoughtful man must care how
his county or state or nation is run.
1t does matter how county and state
and national representatives of the
people serve the people.
It does matter whether or not cor.
ruption exists; whether or not those
entrusted with responsible public du.
ties are dishonest and unfair. It doe'
matter whether or not the sheriff Of
Clearwater county is the petty tool Of
rascals, loaning himself to a gang Of
political crook and willingly does tn.
dirty work that evil minds conceive
1t does matter If the sheriff of !.
county is CRATER, and it does mat
ter if officials wink at crime and per
init the violation Of the law.
1t does matter if probate judg,
and county sheriff protect criminal
and ride roughshod over the rights O
helpless men, even though the off
cials hide their meanness under tn
flimsy excuse of saving the dear tax
payers the cost Of prosecution. Goo
citizens do care, and the comm,
election will prove it.
