GRANGEvILLE, IDAHO THURSDAY, NOV. s. 1914
No what the of the present election be
is assurey good for the well being of the American people
and their continued prosperity that it Some campaign
INSCRIPTIONS in their statements that to of in
tegence they appear their face either base falscaon
deliberate attempts to mislead.
Politicians and parties always advertised that if they
not power the other party would drive the country
to ruin The individual campagner be he backleg angel
asks for mainly the ground that he represent
alive of the party which claims that the destiny of the country
is only safe while in their hands.
The everlasting tamperng Of parties and verdan states
is what always throwing things out of joint Legsa
tors of certain political belief supposed to vote with the
majority of that belief rregardess of what their conscientious
opinion is The party not in tries advertise that the
country in the throes of ruin 1t makes dence wheth
this be not if not true they lie and msead
Some of the mstaements made for campaign
rank that the ordinary will take notice of them
and leave them for the hdebound journals else publish them
advertising For example take this tasty bit of Justification
which has been published this fall and most instances label
led at the bottom with the words, Paid Advertisement
"The philosopher from to effect During
the last two the people have had and Our
factories have been closed and of employ
ment currency bill has passed. yet
has increased; hundred million dollars being taxed
people to replace the left to democratic admins
raon by the republicans mines Idaho shutting down;
the lumber business parayze sugar factories hrea
tened with humiliation, etc."
The clipping not quoted full but the ranket part it
is given Not word of the matter subsanated by
single fact figure It stands forth campaign DOPE and
dope it is The who wrote it ashamed to sign
his it, and the editor would not become its
ter parent labelling it pad advertisement which equiva
lent most with such statement sometimes found
patent medicine to the effect that this medicine contains
many grains of opium, other harmful drugs.
In contrast to the above let take the work
ous editorial writer who discusses business conditions The
Literary Digest in editorial citing all opinions under
head of "Out Business in War-Time'' states:
Except for cotton, the New York Sum- all forms of
rural industry being benefited by the
September shipments of wheat flour corn the kind
red products two and half times great
o is on
the New York Produce Exchange Meat products of all
in huge demand Foreign officers buying thousands
horses"
Moreover it continues:
'he market for manufactured appears to be no
less There very large orders being placed
material of term which includes such diverse articles
barbed wire and automobiles In addition clothing under
clothing for the troops the field and for civilians
eagerly sought The shrnkage home
pes begerant nations here for their supplies
the call is extensive for footwear and plain
durable quality 60 cent WOOL It is said that existing stocks
in this country could be sold completely of the holders did
not refuse to risk scarcity in the domestic trade.
banker quoted in The Sun estimates that the country
exports will be doubled in the year, reaching
five billion dollars The figure be considerably hope
full but the fact which is becoming plain
question: namely and profitable increase the
immediate future in foreign trade What MORE it is to all
intens and cash business through the
foreign credits and practically every dollar only tends
dsminsh and enhance gains here simultaneously helps
to reduce the incubus of transatlantic liabilities
How does that compare with the first clipping which was
marked advertising Does not brand the statements the
first as hes Does sound unreasonable Which helps pros
perity to the 'front.'
That is the that is better for the country
that election is and of the campaign bchers
committees will be silent for couple years. The greatest
poruny the world awaits business industry in the
United States and should get busy
harvest Business will be alright long they
these politicians managing their affairs Industry requires
men of talent Most anyone be politician
AFTER THE CAMPAIGN
The political campaign has passed. The smoke of the
battle has almost cleared and the post
