DEMOCRATS HOLD
FLAG RAISING AND
RALLY TUESDAY
Prominent Party Leaders and
Candidates Talk to Crowd
Of Over Thousand

Attracted by the music of the Wat
erville Cadet Band and the ceremonies
Of the flag raising, over 1000 people
gathered at the corner of King and
Water streets Tuesday evening and
listened TO interesting speeches for
the Democratic party by Leon H. lib
belts, candidate for sheriff: Hon.
Fred w. Clair. candidate for county
attorney and Hon. Cyrus w. Davis.
On platform erected on the front
of a dwelling several prominent Dem
ocrats including Hon. C. B. KelIeher
candidate for State senator, and a few
of the committee members of the
ward. Judge A. A. Matthew acted as
presiding officer and after a few brief
Introductory remarks presented Mr..
Tibbetts. He he felt there were other
speakers who would better entertain
tn audience he spoke briefly. He
claimed that the Democratic party was
the only party to offer the Franco
Americans a chance for public office,
and he said that he hoped the people
would elect Dominique Matthew of
Augusta, one of his successors, as reg
lister of deeds. In closing he said that
on the ballot on Sept. Il the voters
would find TIE name of Clair. then
Matthew and then his, and that by
marking cross on his with the other
two, they would send his kite up with
the others.
Mr. Clair said that a strenuous week
mad weakened his throat and that he
was not able to speak at any length.
However, he warmed up to the occa-
sion, and spoke loud enough to be
heard in the near vicinity. He said
That the last Legislature was the only
one in the State that had not in :
augurated something for the good of
the people, and that Governor Haines
VINO was basing his campaign chiefly
on prohibition, would find that the
pretense at prohibition would surely
be the means of defeating him in Sep
TENDER.
Hon. Cyrus w. Davis spoke IN his
usual fluent and fiowery manner. In
opening he claimed that the present
campaign was one for good govern
ment. In the face of calamity howlers
he said that the country was in a very
prosperous condition and that the
wisdom shown by President Wilson
mad saved the country from loss of
Ire In the recent Mexican situation.
he iauded the President for his con-
scientious attention to the people. and
for the interest he took in their well
fare, and urged the voters of Ward 7
TO lend their aid in establishing the
same program in the Pine Tree State.

ope.
Quit calamity bowling" said
a prominent eastern carpet man
ufacturer recently at a banquet
Of carpet manufacturers. THE
business of the country is about
to enter a new era Of prosper
ity,' he continued and to back
up his opinion, announcement was
made that carpet mills all over
the country were resuming opera
tons on full time after running
only three days a week since early
in the year.
In the same connection the New
York World prints the following:
"The Alexander Hamilton In
stitute, which has been conduct
ing an inquiry into foreign trade
opportunities, estimates that
S60O,000,00O market for iron and
steel, machinery, copper goods,
naval stores, arms and ammuni-
ton mineral oils, chemicals
leather goods and foodstuffs has
been opened up in Great Britain
to United States manufacturers
with the suspension of imports
from Germany, Austria and Bel
GUM"
There is no effort anywhere to
try to manufacture good times
out of nothing. Everywhere
there are abundant evidences Of
the return of prosperity and now
the only cry is, " Quit calamity
bowling and give business a
chance to handle the orders that
are already on hand; quit trying
to paralyze industry and give bus
mess a chance to get on its feet
again; encourage the promised
return of prosperity instead of
pursuing a systematic policy OF
crying it down."

PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION

The Capital News has con-
mrnced campaign to have the
Democratic and Republican NOM
bers of the legislature to violate
one of the principal planks of
their respective platforms.
The platforms of the two par
ties in answer to the overwhelm-
ing demand of the people affected
declare for revision of the powers
of the public utilities commission
in line with the principle of reg
ulated competition as against
protected monopoly.
The Capital News desires to
give monopolistic control of all
the vast power resources of the
state to existing monopolies-and
the Haines public utilities COM
mission acted in harmony with
this program, in fact, was Or
ganized with that end in view.
When Drew Standrod and Jack
Blomquist were placed upon the
commission it was plain to every
well-informed citizen of the state
that favors were to be granted to
certain existing corporations, and
Just as soon as Standrod render
ed the decision for the commits
sion in favor of existing monop-
oily in the power situation in
southern Idaho he resigned to re-
turn to the control of his large
private interests.
Nothing quite so raw was ever
pulled off in Idaho before.
The people of Idaho want the
vast water power of the state de-
veloped-they do not want it
shackled; they want regulated
competition-not protected mon
opoly; they want the benefit Of
new inventions and advantage Of
new power sites-not the sitting
of invention by protected mon
oply that would never improve its
plant, as there would be no in
centive for it to do so.
The Capital News complains Of
the uninformed voters of Idaho.
Better to be uniformed than to
be misinformed by the arguments
it presents in the endeavor to
force an overwhelming majority
of the legislature to violate the
pledges given to the people.

DEMOCRATIC FUTURE

Republican newspapers are
making more than the facts war
rant of the "rebuke" admins
tered at the polls this year to
Woodrow Wilson and the Demo-
cratic party, says the Omaha
WOrld-Herald.
In 1912 Republican party
split squarely down the middle
enabled the Democrats to win
minority victory. The occasion
was unusual, abnormal. It's
like had not been seen for fifty
years before, and may not be seen
for fifty years again. Obvious
ly no conclusions that are Of val
ne can be reached by comparing
1912, when the Republican party
is reunited, with 1912 when it was
50 badly divided that it succeeded
in carrying only rour or five Of
the minor states. Yet this is
the comparison hair-trigger Re-
publican editors are indulging,
and on it they base their claim to
Il great victory.
Leave 1912 out of consideration
Consider the 1914 election results
standing by themselves. What
do we see?
We see, under the popular ell
ection Of senator's, the Demo-
Gratis materially increasing their
majority in the United States Sen
ate.
We see them carrying the lowe.
house of Congress by a majority
Of between 25 and 30.
Does the Democratic control of
the house and senate constitute a
Republican victory?
And we see Democratic senat-
ors and Democratic governors
elected in such hitherto Republic
an states as Maine, Massachu-
sets, INDIANA, Michigan Wiscon-
sin, Minnesota South Dakota Neb-
raska, Wyoming, Oregon and Cal
ifornia.
Compare 1914 with any year
other than 1912, the year of the
great flood, and it will be seen
how desperate are the straits of
the Republican party when it can
claim the results this year as q
victory.
The Democratic party, in spite
of temporary business derange-
ment and industrial prostration
caused by the war, in spite of a
reunited Republican party; in
spite of powerful and numerous
enemies caused by its tariff, cur
rency and trust reform program,
has nevertheless carried the
country. The two years that are
to pass before the next president
ial election promise to be years of
Peace, of plenty, of opportunity.
OF widespread business revival
and of solid contentment. The
Republican party, though its sew
cred parts have come together
after a fashion, it still without
leadership, without a valid issue
and without logical conference.
AS Democratic policies, state and
national, prove their worth, dem
ocracy will grow stronger and the
opposition, without a rallying cry
except that furnished by the lust
for Office, will grow weaker.
The future is rOseate with
promise for the democracy and
for the Republic. The one for
midable obstacle that could be in
terposed in the pathway Of either
would be Democratic faithless-
ness or incOmpetency. Neither
is to be looked for. The party,
in two years, has proved itself
clean, competent and true to its
promises. Under wise and test
ed leadership and under the in
SEPARATION furnished by noble and
patriotic ideals it may be expect
ed to continue to go forward in
the pathway of usefulness and
success.=New Freedom.

Little Cotton Selling.

Very few Of the farmers of
this section are selling their cot
ton, waiting for a better price or
probably the delusive hope of
help from the United States gov
ernment or the State Legislature.
Cotton picking progresses as US
ual. but a large per cent. of the
ginned staple is either placed in
local warehouses or hauled back
to the farms.
A number of the farmers here
abouts are evidently doing their
best to put into practical use the
volumes of advice given them by
the newspapers and professors
of agriculture and are sowing
and preparing to sow large pro-
portions Of their land in small
grain.

Great Agricultural Exhibit.

What is believed to be the
greatest exhibition of farm
demonstration work ever pre-
sented under one roof is that
which is being made at the
South Carolina State Fair in
Columbia by the demonstration
agents of Clemson College and
the United States Department of
Agriculture. The entire wall
space of the great steel building
on the fair grounds is occupied
by booths of the county agents,
the poultry and canning club
agents and the special agents
who have their headquarters at
Clemson College. Agents have
been preparing for this ex-
hibltion for several months. A
unique feature of the arrange
ments was the procuring of
cold storage accommodations in
Columbia In the spring so that
fresh vegetables might be sent
in by the agents from time TO

until the fair.

issued a circular letter to the
voters of the State in regard to
two amendments to be voted
upon at the coming general

two proposed amendments are
approved by the people of the
State the school for the deaf and
blind will no longer be classed
with the penal and charitable
Institutions. but with the edu-
cational department of the State.
One amendment is necessary to
take the school from the penal
and charitable section. it is de-
clared, while the second is neces-
sary to place the school under
the educational section.
