IN THE POLLING BOOTH

On election day, when you go be-
hind the screen to register your vote,
when you are alone with God and
your thoughts will you think of that
long line of little boys as sweet and
fresh as any of your own going to
the bar for the first time? Will you
think of these boys, the cream Of the
land, turned into drunkards? Then
think of the long line of mothers,
with eyes Redeemed from weeping and
faces drawn and haggard, waiting in
the night for the footsteps Of the
drunken father, and the little ones
poorly clad and often beaten-we ap-
peal to you, men, in the name of your
manhood, that you protect our homes
and our children and l tell you, wo-
men, that if there ever was time
when you should be aroused, :. it is
now. We point to better day,
which will reverse the old order, 8
day of brave women and fair men.

Let US see how Mr.. Wilson stands on
schools. Last winter the people of
Weippe and surrounding country want
ed to build new high school. They
finally succeeded. But what did Joel
Wilson do? Work for it? Was he a
friend of education? Was he inter-
ested in the boys and girls of his dis
trict.. Go to the phone and talk
with Mr.. Larson, one Of the most re-
sponsible citizens of the district.
Ask the Weippe people where Joel
Wilson stood.
Mr.. Wilson is today out with the
gang: he is travelling around with
Sheriff Harper and the rest of the
gang working to re-elect them, and
the gang is for Wilson. Pat Blake
and Blair Hoar are for Joel Wilson.
Jim Blake is for Joel Wilson. And
Joel Wilson is a candidate for county
commissioner.

Is it honest to juggle county bills?
If Mr.. Zelenka, as county commits
sioner, has right to sell material to
the county, why does he attempt to
cover up his violation of the law?
Mr.. Zelenka sold road district No. IL,
$40. 25 worth of cement. He knew he
was violating the law. When con-
fronted with the facts at Ahsahka he
admitted his guilt and gave no ex-
PLANTATION. What did he do? Had
Bob Cook put in bill for the cement,
sold by Mr.. Zelenka himself, and as
chairman of the board, paid his own
bills. Why did Mr.. Zelenka sneak
his bill through? And is this sam
pie of the way this public official has
been doing business? Come out Mon
day night if you want the proof.

and see that there is nothing wrong.
And what does the farmer know about
exporting the county records? 1t re-
quires an expert accountant, and sew
eral months of technical work to go
through the county records. The
Tribune knows this. AS we'll tell a
stakeholder in large store that there
is no need of book-keeper; that a
farmer or an editor or a laboring man
can walk into the store, look over
the goods, and tell how the accounts
stand; how much money has been
wasted or stolen; how the clerks are
looking after your interests. It is
bosh to talk that way. The Tribune
is afraid of an investigation of the
county records.

Clearwater county has been in the
hands of the Blake gang and court
house ring for four years. The peo-
pie know that things are rotten. For
all the people know the taxpayers are
being robbed, and their county funds
squandered. The republicans will, if
the people elect Jack Harlan, Fred
Choate and j. l.. Coontz, investigate
and clean house. The Orofino Tri-
bune, speaking for Frank Zelenka,
Joel Wilson and Henry A. Wood tells
the people that if anyone wants to
know about county business that the
records are open for inspection.
Which is only another way of saying
that there will be no investigation if
the democrats are elected. If you are
satisfied and want things to go on as
they have been; if you are satisfied
with two years more of Blake gang
rule and Tammany methods, vote for
the gang. If you want extravaganza
and graft, vote for the gang. If you
want the county cleaned up, vote the
republican ticket.

WARNING

Beware of lies or reports Giro ulated
or published at the last moment by
the gang. 1t is reported that the
Tribune will assail Mr.. Harla n this
week; That the democrats have dis
covered some horrible thing in the
life of Mr.. Harlan that make him
unfit for county commissioner. The
citizens of Orofino know that Jack
Harlan is honest, clean and worthy,
competent to serve the people as COM
missioner, and that he will do his
duty. The people know that Mr..
Harlan is not a timber tool, that he
Will not stand in with the timber
companies to help them skin the peo-
pie. And Mr.. Harlan is not friend
of bootleggers. He will do hi duty.

1t is matter of record that when
Neg Perez county exported her county
records that it was found that the
Office of county treasurer, run by A.
E. Hinckley was in perfect order.
His records were correct. Not an
error was discovered, and the expert
says the books kept by Mr.. Hinckley
were beautiful specimens of SPLEEN
did work. 1t is certainly fortunate
that the people Of Clearwater county
have an opportunity to elect Mr..
Hinckley to the Office of assessor.
He is high class man, honest and
competent, and the people are fortu-
nate indeed in being able to place
such men in public office. Mr..
Hinckley is not an experiment. He
has served the people as county treas
urer for several years. His honesty
has never been questioned. His abil-
ity is admitted and his skill as a
book-keeper admired by the best ac-
countants.

Don't believe Blake gang lies.

The people of Elk River are not
satisfied. They do not endorse the
rotten conditions that exist. They
want the county cleaned up. The citi-
zens have had enough. That is why
the democratic gang are going to be
overwhelmingly defeated in Elk Riv-
er. The people are tired of having
their community pointed out as a
place where crime and vileness runs
riot. The fathera and mothers are
tired of having bootleggers flaunt
their illicit stuff in the face of their
boys. They appeal to the good citi-
zens of the county to help them clean
out bootleggers and harlots, and re-
store peace and order and decency.
They have had enough Of Harper and
Holsclaw, and democratic gang rule.

THE GOVERNING REASON FOR
RRADY,S RETURN

Although Senator James H. Brady
has served but the short term of one
year and eight months, he has already
handled, for the citizens of Idaho,
1000 claims of different nature before
all the departments at Washington.
These matters consist of homestead,
desert, and enlarged homestead
claims, requests for survey, pension
claims, the enlargement and changing
of rural routes, and many other de-
partmental matters important to
scores of individuals.
When it is remembered that each
one of these claims has necessitated
from two to six calls at the depart
ments in question, one can readily see
how devoted Senator Brady must be to
his work to have successfully. handled
SO many matters. This, Of course, is
all outside of his work in the senate.
Senator Brady is now serving on
the following important committees
Agricultural and Forestry, Conserva-
ton of Natural Resources, Public
Buildings and Grounds, Military
Affairs, National Banks, Coast and
Insular Survey, Public Health AND
National Quarantine, and Expendi-
lures in the Department of Commerce.
It will be noted that Senator Brady
has succeeded in getting on the com.
mittees most important to the west.
If new senator should be sent tc
Washington in Senator Brady's place,
all this advantage to Idaho will be
lost.-Parma Review.

The Elk River bootleggers arr sem

The Elk River bootleggers are send
ing out men who are going over the
county in the guise of being 'preach-

1t should unite on questions of i'm
portance to it.
A house divided against itself can

In order to be real factor in state

But if we divide our strength on ques-

This year our judicial candidates
are non-partisan and their names APP

Of four good north Idaho men who
were candidates for nomination for
justice of the supreme court, William
M. Morgan, of Moscow, was the one
nominated. Having received the
highest number of vote in the primar-
les, he now can come before the vot-
ers with an appeal for the united
suffrage of the north, upon the true
spirit of the law and there can be no
valid reason for refusing him such
support. Politics do not enter into
it. The law so declares.
For twelve years north Idaho has
been represented on the supreme
bench by Judge Ailshie,, who resigned
in July. The governor recognized
that the place belonged to the north

PROTECTING BRIBERS

At the Ahsahka meeting this week
Blair Hoar told Sheriff Harper to tell
the people about that $500. And
Sheriff Harper is quoted as saying
that when he and Pat and Harry
Woods We're county commissioners
that the timber companies offered
them $500 to reduce timber taxes.
Who did this? Do they not know
that it is crime to attempt to bride
a public official? Did these honest
officials take the bribe? They say
not. Did they prosecute the timber
companies or their tools who
tried to bride them? No. Why

A FEW CAMPAIGN LIES

E. j. Sullivan, republican candi-
date for sheriff, has openly said he
would enforce the law. He says he
will catch the bootleggers, therefore
the bootleggers are using every posi-
BILE means to defeat him. The boot
leggers are sending alleged preachers
over the county trying to prejudice
people. Here are some of the cam
paign lies:
Lie No. 1. Sullivan is boot
logger.
Lie No. 2. Sullivan is a gambler.
Lie No. 8. Sullivan is Catholic.
Mr.. Sullivan's parents were Cath
olics. Mr.. Sullivan has not affiliated
with the church for many years.
His wife is an Eastern Star, and Mr..
Sullivan regrets very much that re-
ligion is being dragged into this con-
test.
One of the best sheriffs Latah
county ever had was j. j. Keane, a
democrat and a Catholic, and we be-
lieve this statement will be borne out
by the protestant ministers of Latah
county and by the people Of that coun-
ty regardless of the church they be-
long to. The bootleggers are trying
to defeat Mr.. Sullivan, and they dc
not care how they do it. Mr.. Sulli-
van is clean honorable, and decent,
and pledged to enforce the law.
Where Sheriff Harper is winking at
bootlegging, and thereby encouraging
crime and vice, Mr.. Sullivan is op-
posed to these things, and stands
pledged to enforce the law. Beware
of campaign lies peddled by tools sent
out over the county in the guise OF
ministers or others. Beware Of
wolves in sleeps clothing. Mr.. Har.
per has been tried. The people know
what he has done. They know what
Holsclaw has done. They know the
county has been in the hands of dis.
reputable gang, and if the people are
tired of the farce let them clean Out
the entire bunch, county commission.

81 think that Mr.. Zelenka is going
to be alright from now on" The
above remark was made the FIRST of
the week by an Orofino democrat. 1t
is thought worth considering. 1t is
astonishing! The remark referred to
a county official who has been in
power two years. 1t is an admission
that this official has not been right.
1t is an admission that there is no de-
tense of the things this official has
done. If this is true then, in the
name of common, business sense, ism t
it time for the people to give another
man a trial? Why didn't Illinois
give Lorimer another chance? Why
dind't San Francisco give Abe Rueff
another chance? A republican gang
robbed Latah county of some $50, 600.
Why didn't the taxpayers give the
bunch another chance?. Why not en-
courage bum business, extravaganza
and incompetency, even graft by re-
electing those who betray the interests
of the people when the people entrust
their affairs in their hands? If the
people of Clearwater county expect
the best public service let them say
by their votes this fall that they will
not endorse incompetency and extrav-
agance. If the people re-elect Mr..
Zelenka they will encourage the kind
of business Mr.. Zelenka has been do
ing. If public official is tried and
found wanting why not use as much
common sense as the average business
firm does in business matters.

not? Ask Blair. Ask Harper. Why
have these honest officials protected
those who have, as they say, commit
ted crime? When a fellow tried to
bride the county board over at Ritz
vile they prosecuted him and the
grand jury indicted the rascal. Why
hasn't Blair and Pat and Harper and
Harry Woods made an example Of
timber companies who have tried to
bride the servants Of the people ?
But maybe the gang is lieing just to
get votes. Who knows?

JOEL WILSON

so far little has been said about
Joel Wilson. The democrats have
hardly mentioned him; the Tribune has
acted is if it was ashamed of him,
and Mr.. Wilson himself has remained
as mum as an oyster. Where does
Mr.. Wilson stand? Is he for or
against saloons? Is he in sympathy
with the bootleggers? Is he against
them? Is he with the court house
gang, or is he against the gang? Is
he with the Blakes, or is he against
them? Does he endorse the four
years of democratic management of
Clearwater county, or does he condemn
it? Is he for an investigation of
county records, and is any democrat
the proper person to investigate a
democratic gang?
We have been told that in "dry =
localities Mr.. Wilson is dry" and
in "wet' districts he is wet. I"
That he tells the women, on the quiet
that he is in favor of prosecuting
bootleggers, and yet, for some reason,
the bootleggers are all lined up
against the republican candidates.
Let US see? A few weeks ago the
government Of the United States was
spending thousands of dollars fighting
forest fires in Clearwater county. A
fearful condition existed. Millions
of dollars worth of property was
threatened. And the bootleggers that
are operating in the Weippe country
were interfering with the men. Con-
ditions were SO serious that the au-
thorities appealed to Sheriff Harper
for protection. Sheriff Harper APP
pointed Joel Wilson, now candidate
for county commissioner, as deputy
sheriff. Mr.. Wilson was to enforce
the law. And what did he do?
Bootlegging continued to flourish.
Not an arrest was made. The traffic
went on undisturbed, and the people
in Weippe say that all Joel Wilson
did was to tell the boys" to be
careful. - The report goes that he
told the "boys something like this
''Now boys, Mr.. Harper has made
me deputy sheriff. l don't want you
to be drinking under my nose.'
Sure not, go ahead and bootleg.
Go ahead and violate the law. Go
ahead and sell booze, but ''be care
full. And while every mother in the
Weippe country is wringing her hands
in horror, and while every school boy
knows that bootlegging is going on,
and has gone on, and was going on
while Mr.. Wilson was deputy sheriff,
nobody was arrested. Bootleggers
were not interferred with. The
traffic in booze went right on. And
the bootleggers are not supporting
the republican candidates in Clear
water county. Mr.. Coontz says he
will not grant saloon license. He
will back up the officers in enforce
ment of the law. Mr.. Wilson has
said nothing. He stands pledged to
nothing. End Mr.. Wilson will not car
ny his own precinct. In the primary
