Hope Ivanovna, the daughter OF
Russian patriot, who died willis
serving a term of Imprisonment fol
promulgating doctrines of humanit!
and political freedom, has devoted
her life to carrying ON the work
amongst the poorer classes.
Her hand is sought in marriage by
two men, who although their stations
in life are wide apart, are loyal
friends; One, Paul Pavlow, is a poor
student, and the other, Serge Palma
is a wealthy scion of Russian arts
tocracy. Hope accepts the latter in
order that her work will not be
hampered by lack of money.
The Chief of Police, cruel, relent-
less and lascivious has met Hope,
and determines to possess her, and
to this end has had her husband SEN
fenced to fifteen years In Siberia and
his friend to five years in East Rus
STA, ON false charges.
{ Hope however, is proof against all
his advances and makes long jour-
ney to Siberia to join her husband in
exile. After many months of travel,
during which she suffers endless pri-
vations, she arrives, not to find her
husband, but her lover, who In a
spirit of wonderful self-sacrifice, &C.
tuated by his high souled love for
Hope and deep friendship for Serge,
has exchanged sentences.

POLITICAL NEWS
AT STATE CAPITAL
Especial correspondence

Boise, Idaho, August 30th, 1915
Boise is asking itself If it had
within its portals ON Saturday and
Sunday the next president of the
United States, for upon those two
days Senator Theodore e. Burton of
Cleveland, Ohio, was the guest of
Senator Borah. If there was any ri
valry between these two distinguish
ed men for the presidential nomi-
nation it did not appear while Sena-
tor Burton was in the home city OF
Senator Borah. They dined together,
went to church together ON Sunday
and were as much Damon and Pyth-
las as could ever two prominent
political figures appear.
Senator Burton spoke at the Com
mercial Club rooms Saturday evening
and large number of men turned
out to hear him. He spoke chiefly
upon his recent trip in South Amer
lea and gave concrete evidence Of his
ability as an analyst of public az
fairs. In his half hour talk he gave
better glimpse of the South
American countries than Frank G.
Carpenter could give in a dozen
articles from his pen. Senator Bur
ton was of the opinion that England
rather than Germany had the lions
share of the trade with South Ameri-
can countries and believed that the
United States should avail itself of
its present opportunity to increase
its South American trade.
Like Senator Fairbanks of Indiana,
Senator Burton has suffered to some
extent from the prevailing opinion
that he is cold and reserved man.
He is a bachelor and the word
"crusty" is so often made the appel
lation of men who prefer single bles-
sedness, that Senator Burton has
suffered from the suggestion, al
though he was found to be an anna
BILE, kind-hearted gentleman of &C
curate information about many
things and the most agreeable way
in passing this information ON to
others.
When Senator Borah was laughing
ly asked whether the ticket was 60
ing to be "Borah and Burton, OF
Burton and Borah", he said he
did not care much which" That two
statesmen may have wide diversion
of opinion on national issues and
still remain friends and have high
respect for each others attainments
is evident in the friendship existing
between Ohio's distinguished son
and Idaho's favorite statesman. Sena-
tor Burton was strong adherent
of President Wilson upon the Pan
anna canal toll question while Sena-
tor Borah was equally strong against
the canal tolls repeal.

Senator Borah is still insistent thai
the direct primary law shall stand
upon the statute book. At a mass
meeting held Sunday evening at the
Methodist church he stated that the
enforcement of statewide prohibition
would depend upon the ability OF
the people to elect their public ser
wants through the primaries. Captain
e. G.. Davis in a recently prepared
article championed the convention
system for the nomination of state
tickets, leaving the counties to nomi-
nate their county officials under the
primary and also the nominations OF
governor and United States Senator.
Senator Borah has not conceded this
much to the direct primary opposi-
ton and while not pointing out that
he is opposed to this plan which has
received consideration of party lead
ers even before Captain Davis put
the matter in concrete form, Sena-
tor Borah says that he stands for
the direct primary and evidently
means that he stands for 1t as 1T is.
At last Sunday evenings meeting,
Senator Borah made the prophecy
that in the life time of many pres
emit, the United States would have
a national prohibition constitutional
