Clearwater Republican. [volume] (Orofino, Idaho) 1912-1922, 1914-09-04

The Blake machine, once in abso-
lutte control of Clearwater county, is
no more. At the primary election
Tuesday all that was mortal of this
political machine was swept into OBJ
livion, and it will never come back.
Early in the primary campaign it was
plain that the Blake gang planned to
rule, or ruin where it could not con-
troll, and it did, but the gang is at
the bottom of the wreckage, with not
a sorrowing soul to do the old gang
bosses reverence. The carnage was
awful. Few, if any Blake candidates
escaped, so far as we know.
It was finish fight, with the rem
nant of the old gang fighting for its
life, and the gang was wiped off the
face of the earth.
Driven into the corner early in the
game, the gang purposed to win by
creating dissention within the ranks
of the republicans, and control the
democratic organization if possible.
Slippery Jim himself urged at least
one man to run on the republican
ticket, and may have urged dozens to
do so. We know the Blake machine
did all it could through republicans to
split the republican party, and we are
now sure it failed miserably. We
know the same gang tried to control
the democratic party and that it failed
there. We know that the evidence is
on file in the auditors Office where set
after set of nomination papers bear
the Blake brand.
But let no man mistake US. The
Republican does not charge that all
the defeated candidates were Blake
tools. We know this is not true.

HARPER
PEDDLES BOOZE

r. H. Sayler, a settler in the Dent
country, was in Orofino this week,
bringing in the election returns from
Fenton precinct. To the Republican,
in the presence of witness, he said !:
"Sheriff Harper is not fit man to
serve as sheriff of our county. l am
not squealing on bootleggers, but
when the sheriff, an officer of the
law, sworn to enforce the law, will
solicit votes on bootlegger's whiskey
and beer it is too much for me.
Il was at the Jerico mine last week
when Sheriff Harper stopped there on
his way home from Elk River. He
offered me drink and said it was
some he got from LaDuke, at Elk
River.

LEWIS is DEFEATED
FOR GOVERNOR

The defeat of M. E. Lewis for the
republican nomination of governor is
great disappointment to the Clear
water Republican, for his elevation to
the governors chair would have proven
blessing to the entire state.
1t is now up to somebody to elect
Haines, and there are many republi-
cans who will admit now that the next
governor of Idaho will be M. Alex
ander Of Boise. AS mayor of Boise

this territory. Mr.. Blake has been
probate judge of this county, and is
now county assessor. He took an oath
to obey and respect the law. Yet he
walks the street loaded to the guards
with bottled bliss, and don't care who
sees him. Where does he get it?
Either he brings it here himself or he
patronizes some one who violates the
law. He violates the federal law,
and yet is to be imposed on this COM
munity as the custodian of the Unit
ed States mail. This man is to be
post master, and to have the handling
Of the peoples mail.
Is there any wonder the patrons Of
the Office are aroused? Is there any
wonder the citizens dropped party
differences and Joined in a mighty pro-
test against the consummation of this
outrage?
1t has been charged that p. H.
Blake is not fit man for the position
because he lacks the confidence Of the
patrons of the Office. There can be no
question about this. The people are
afraid to have their mail handled by
this man. They have no confidence in
Mr.. Blake. The Molloy incident
ought to furnish all the proof anybody
would need on this point.
Why, then, should President Wilson
urge the confirmation Of this appoint
ment? We believe the president will
not do SO; that he will withdraw the
nomination and permit the democrats
to name some man in whom the people
have confidence, and for whom the
community has some respect.

heard him say he was candidate for
reelection as sheriff. He offered
others drink, and had five or six bot
ties of beer and two quarts of whiskey
with him that l saw.
1--WE are paying the sheriff to en-
force the law, and it disgusts me to
see such open disregard for official
duty.
"You may quote me if you please,
for the people ought to know what
kind of officers they have in Clear
water county,"
Mr.. Sayler said that one of the Elk
River bootleggers told him recently
that he had made 81, 800 in few days
selling booze, and that he had seen
enough in Elk River to disgust any
citizen.

Pray for Peace

White Ribboners everywhere are
asked to arrange for special SER
vice on Sunday, Sept. 6, (not inter-
ferring with other services) to pray
for speedy end of the war and to
advocate anew our peace principles.
The above is the request of Anna A.
Gordon and the local branch Of the
w. c. T. U. will comply. The
meeting will be held in the Christian

Accidents to Trespassers on Railroads
Increasing

Fifty six per cent of casualties due
States are due to trespassing. Most of
the deaths are caused by trespassing
on trains and the majority occur to
the hobo element beating passage. The
railroads employ yard watchmen and
special agents and In this way dis
courage those seeking free passage.
but not until the city. county and state
authorities take steps to cooperate
with the railroads in this matter, will
the list of deaths to trespassers be-
come. noticeably lessened.
On the Union Pacific Railroad alone,
209 persons have been killed and 319
seriously injured while trespassing on
| the right-Of-way, during five year
period. Coming still closer home 166
persons have been killed and 314 in
! jured in the state of Nebraska in the
last ten years-a toll of 4SO persons
killed or injured out of total popula-
| tion of 1,192,214, paid for the privilege
of trespassng on one railroad!
The Interstate Commerce Com
mission annually calls attention to the
number of deaths and personal in
juries due to the operation of rail-
roads, but does not mention the fact
that Sc per cent of the casualties are
due to trespassing.
If cooperation between State and
Federal officials and railroad employees
could be obtained, it would soon be
possible to reduce the deaths and per-
sonal injuries due to this cause The
railroads can warn, explain and argue
with the public, but unfortunately
they cannot insist without the help of
! the law and in the meantime the death
rate, due to trespassing, rapidly in
creases.

fer Of two hundred dollars for the
profitable COW
Suppose again this same dairyman
grows an acre OF alfalfa at a cost of
twenty dollars to grow, harvest and
put 1t into his barn and that from
its consumption by certain number of
low producing cows he receives In
return twenty dollars worth of milk
He sells his crop at cost and makes
no profit
FIGURE THIS OUT
Suppose that by keeping cows of the
high producing class that will yield
ten thousand pounds OF milk during
the year he could derive sixty dol
lars worth of milk from the same
amount of alfalfa. How much more
would the high producing cows be
worth to the dairyman than the low
producing cows?
Have they not increased the feed
ing value of his alfalfa 800 per cent
for all that he is making at present?
Except that amount of manure Is not
doubled and that the cows will some
day need, to be replaced by another
herd

cows as to accept herd OF low pro-
ducers as a gift?-Nebraska Farm
