be greatly increased when the farm credit law

really possesses any of the degree of ability which is
claimed for him and which has gained him prominence
through his proposed 'taxess state scheme he would

The only saving grace to the Davis plan is that it is
absurd and so silly that effort will be made to
have carried into operation This admitted by all

DAVIS DEFENDER OF THUG METHODS.

The remarks made by d. W. Davis at Shoshone upon
receipt of the of the assault committed by Warden
Shook aided and abeted by Secretary of State Barker in
the rotnda of the state house last Friday evening
stamps Mr. Davis advocate of lawlessness and de-
fender of thug methods.
But there is back of Mr.. Davis remarks than
indication of his trend Of mind upon the enforcement
of law and approval Of aWcsSness there back of 1t the
significant admission that if he should be elected gov
enor he would of give his support to retaining

Mr.. Davis, doubtless if he had been present would
have joined Mr. Barker in urging Mr. Shook to continue
his assaults nasmuch the victim still showed

stood by and urged Mr. Shook renewed energies and to

unfortunate could not be present but yet Mr. Shook had
his sympathy to the extent that he desired to telegraph
him. congratulations upon his violation of the law and of
his failure to give any warning to his intended victim to
defend himself
Mr. Davis having thus allied himself in common
with Secretary of State Barker and Warden Shook
has given additional why every sefrespecng and
lawabidng citizen of this state should respond to the APP
peal that has been made during this campaign by the Capt.

THE D. w. DAVIS TAxLEss STATE SCHEME.

There many weak points in the ID. w. Davis
taXess state scheme that it almost absurd to call
attention to any Of them However, it appears that there
is one weakness IN it to which nobody has called at
tenton which should be worth while considering
though the whole plan be recognized too absurd for the
serious consideration of intelligent people
That point is the great difficulty that would be en-
countered to make suitable investment Of the immense
capital which Mr.. Davis nagines and conectres would
be the result Of throwing upon the market the lands given
to the state by the national in trust for it's
educational ard other institutions.
Mr. Davis has figured out to the satisfaction of his
imagination that the state would have for investment
something like one hundred million dollars. How does
Mr.. Davis propose to invest this hundred million?
The people of the state Of Idaho would not sanction
any scheme of investment which would jeopardze the
principal and loss hererom and would insist that
none but the most investments be made.
Even with the comparatively small principal hand
for the Investment under existing conditions there have
been continuously hand for the past two years from
100000 to 100000 awaiting investment.
The delay in investment is not due to red tape in max
ing farm loans to any negligence the part of any
state official connected with the loaning of funds. 1t is
primarily due to the provision of the constitution of the
state which limits the amount which may be loaned to
onethird the value of improved farm lands not counting
the value Of the buildings.
There very few farmers who forced to negotiate
loans who get along by borrowing one-thrd the
land, exclusive of buildings which they offer as security.
Very many requests made to the state land board
where farmers desire to borrow money than the
stitution will permit the board to loan
1t must be question for the people to decide if they
want to give consideration to Mr. Davis chimerical
scheme They will have to lessen the value of the security

ADDRESSES GIVEN
ON PARTY HISTORY

Party principles we're discussed at
the meeting of the Council of Women
Voters last evening at the city hall.
The speeches were made by A. c.

Wilbert H. Tyer. president Of the

an occasion for oratory and serious
elaboration.

refusal of the Democratic administra-
ton to shed blood that the property OF
Americans in Mexico might be saved.
The protective tariff was also ex-
planned as being an issue for the MAX
ing of dollars for CERTAIN industries
which the government in fairness To
all industries could not do.

THE BROKEN PLEDGES OF DEMOCRACY

CAPITAL AND SURPLUS
$425,OOO.OO

There are two primary reasons why
Mr.. Hughes should be elected. First.
because he has shown by his whole
career that he sizes up to any situa-
ton which confronts him, and the next
few years are liable to develop some
acute angles in the history of our
country
Another reason why he should be
elected and Mr.. Wilson ought not to
be elected is because Mr.. Wilson has
failed to carry out the promises his
party made and of which he became
the exponent, beginning at the outset
with the abject surrender to England
of our rights in the Panama canal, In
urging a repeal of that provision which
gave free tolls to our coastwise ship
ping, Notwithstanding he had declared
for the exemption and had given I'M
answerable reasons why 1t should ex-
list.
