KIDNAPPED RANCHER ESCAPES
WHILE ABDUCTOR SLEEPS
Kidnapper Captured, Proves to BE q
Bold Sheepherder-Tells Why
He Did It.

E. S. Empey, the Idaho Falls Ranch
er who was kidnapped about two
weeks ago and held for $4,000 ransom,
made his escape from his captor Fri
day of last week while the captor
slept. Empey was kept chained to
a tree most Of the time during the day
and to his captor at night, both &C.
cupying the same bed. Empey was
well cared for and was kept within
five miles of his ranch, on a thickly
wooded mountain. The provisions up
on which they subsisted ha6 been
stolen from sheep camps. The chain
and paddock used OH Empey were pur-
chased in Idaho Falls a few days be-
fore he was kidnapped. While the
%kidnapper slept last Friday Empey
succeeded i'm getting free and made
his way to a forest reserve station ana
was taken to Soda Springs by the
foresters, and Idaho Falls officers
notified. The %kidnapper. whose name
is Leonidas NJ. Dean, upon finding his
prisoner gone, started I'm search of
him and was captured by cowboys,
and taken to Idaho Falls.
"The desire for these necessities of
an enjoyable existence compelled my
actions" said Dean, who is held In
jail charged with the kidnapping. The
statement concludes:
Il appeal to Mr.. Empey to inform
the public. that / treated him with as
much consideration as was possible
to accomplish my object and realize
that alone foiled my plans"
Fean denied any connection with
the Yellowstone park holdup of July
8 or with the reported plot to kidnar
President Smith of the Mormon
church.
Empey. at home Saturday with his
family and friends said he was feel
ing fine. He was well fed during his
captivity. He was chained up a,
night but shared the bed with his
captor. He was at liberty during the
day but constantly under guard.
Dean fell asleep Friday and Empey
made his escape. The bandit seeking
his prisoner approached a ranch house
on Crane Flat and was there arrested
by a party OF cowboys. He wat
brought TO Idaho Falls Saturday
morning and late in the day issued
his statement.

THE OPINION OF
JOHN SHARP WILLIAMS

That the Democratic party is incom'
petent is the statement made by Sena,

in an address to the United States
senate.
THE poor, dear. old foolish Demo,
cratic party is going through the same
game that she a be generally trusted

liams to his Democratic colleagues
you cannot govern the country. You
are Incompetent"
Some measure of that incompetency
has been referred to hitherto in stories
pointing out specific errors In the
tariff bill due to inexcusable blunder-
ing. Mistakes in other laws have been
discussed In more recent articles. A
brief resume of these mistakes is Civ
en- herewith, to be followed later by
instances of other faulty Democratic
legislation.
No. s. The provision enacted by the
Democratic congress to build up the
American merchant marine utterly

ferred the proposed benefit instead up.
on competing vessels of other coun-
tries, giving to foreigners the profits
from high freight rates, according to
the decision of the court of customs
appeals In the five per cent rebate
case.
No. 9. The Democratic congress
blundered In enacting the law to pro-
vide greater safety and comfort at sea
for passengers and seamen by naming
two conflicting dates for the time II
should take effect.
No. 10. The war tax" law vas in
accurately drawn; was not based up
on correct estimates and failed to pro-
vide the money needed; necessitated
expensive litigation; and adequate
preparation for It's enforcement was
not made. causing great delay, an
noyance and confusion.
No. IL. The executive branch OF
the Democratic administration is at
wal with the legislative branch, and
has asked the supreme court to declare
imperative the law allowing a five per
cent reduction in the tariff on goods
imported in American bottoms.
No. IL. The most vital error a
legislative body can make was incor-
p%orated in the war tax" law, congress
having given two conflicting dates as
to the time Schedule b should begin
to operate.
No. Is. Congress invited litigation
over Schedule b of the war AK" law
by falling to clearly express the mean
ing Of the provision to tax cosmetics -
and the matter is now In the courts.
No. IA. Thousands of dollars col
lected from trust companies under the
war tax" law may have to be refund
ed because congress failed to make
clear whether OF not they are subject
to the taxa question that has been
taken to the courts for determination

Would Compromise Be Wise?

The institution OF the state board
Of control was great forward steI
in the system of state government
That the board has indicated it's in
stitution, that it has proved it's value
and in every material sense has made
good, is proving the most formidable
obstacle to the Inauguration of the
efficiency and economy system, Whicr
abolishes the board as a matter of
principle, says the St. Paul Dispatch
In the consideration Of the new
system, the theories of which are
sound to the core, the opposing in
fluence of the board of control is pow.
erful and widespreading This OPP
position is stronger and much more
worthy than that which comes from
the army of place holders who merely
are fighting for their jobs, and justly
is held as a menace to the adoption
of the efficiency plan.
Those who are foremost in advocacy
and support of the new plan are I'M
willing to make in it any change
which would seem to involve a sacri-
flee of principle. It may come to &
point, eventually, where they will be
called upon to decide whether they
will abandon any part of the plan
or witness the defeat of the whole
structures; whether it is the part Of
wisdom to conduct a losing fight for
the plan in it's entirety or to accept
a half loaf for the purpose of the
entering wedge of a modern system
of state administration.
The suggestion has been made that
compromise that will install part
of the new plan is better than total
loss at. this time. It is a serious
question and cannot be answered
without mature consideration. The
time will come when the affairs of
Minnesota will be administered under
improved and modernized methods
and the problem is whether such q
compromise would hasten or retard
that time. The subject is, by all
odds, the most important with which:
the legislature has to deal.

HOW TO MAX THE CHEAPEST AMI
BEST COUGH REMEDY ATsnohE

Most persons neglect cough or cold
for the principal reason that they either
don t think it serious enough to 60 to a
doctor, or don't know what good 1nedi-
cine to buy at drug store, with the
result that the cough or cold becomes
deep seated through this neglect and
hangs on the whole winter-which might
have otherwise been speedily cured, had
Schifmann's Concentrated Expectorant
been used promptly.
This new remedy is so strongly con-
centrated that two ounces $50 cents
worthy make a full pint (l6 ozs.) of ex-
celfent cough, medicine, by simply mix
ing it at home with one pint of granu-
lated sugar and u pint of water. 1t makes
