SECOND IDAHO Is
COMING HOME
FOR CHRISTMAS

The Second Idaho regiment, whicl
has been on duty on the Mexican
border since early last July, hal
been ordered home and will reacl
Boise the latter part of next week
after which they will be mustered
out and returned TO their homes a
rapidly as possible. The Idaho regi
ment has been one OF the best IN
the border service and have gained
much praise from the officers of the
regular army during their service
Medric Labbee, Shorty Maxwell and
Walter Taylor are the Mountain
Home members of the regiment and
they will proably be at home before
Christmas.
The first announcement was chat
the boys would be mustered out at
Salt Lake but the following from
Wednesdays Statesman indicates
differently:
AS the result OF orders received
Wednesday night from the command
ing general OF the western division of
the war department Major Amos A.
Martin, U. s. A.. who arrived In Boise

be accommodated In the buildings wiLII
be provided for In sheds or tents to
be erected on the grounds. Captain
Max B. CARRIER viii be the mastering
out officer and Major Martin com.
manding officer during the demobili-
zation.
Major Martin found upon examina.
tion Wednesday morning that a limit
OF 723 men could be accommodated
at the barracks, and expressed the
opinion It would be necessary for the
men to camp at the barracks grounds
preceding the muster out. He thought |
1t would be preferable to have the
whole regiment, Including officers
and men. camp. and so reported to the
commanding general.
The number Of officers and men IN
the regiment exceeds by several
hundred the capacity OF the barracks
buildings There is an enormous
amount OF work TO be done IN getting
the BUILDINGS ready for occupancy
and this will be proceeded with i'm.
m med'stely.
Major Martin met with the COVER

BONDS IN TINE OF PEACE

He kept us out of war" Yet the
Democrats of the Senate, with the
full approval of the Secretary of the
Treasury-who happens to be also a
s~on-in-law of the man who kept us
out of war"-propose a bond issue of
$3.50, 900, 900 to meet the expenses in
eident to the mobilization of the ~
tional Guard.
Nobody outside of Heaven and the
White House knows why the Guards
men were ever sent to the border in
the first place. There is more than a
suspicion that the mobilization was
ordered for some obscure political
purpose not entirely u%nconnected
with the Wilson campaign for re-
election. Whatever the motive, the
bill of expense runs to a pretty fig
ure. To meet it, the country is to be
saddled with a bond issue which will
entail not only the payment of their
face value, but a long-continued an
nual interest charge.

man. Italian, Hungarian. Polish, or
any European ancestry think OF
that?
On June g.. 1909. in al address to
the graduating class of Princeton
University. DR.. Wilson expressed his
remarkable views on labor in the fol-
lowing words. you know what the
usual standard of the employee is in
our day. 1t is to give as little as he
may for his wages"
At a dinner in the Waldorf hotel
in New York, March Is, 1907, DR..
Woodrow Wilson spoke as follows:
we speak too exclusively of the cap
italistic class. There is another as
formidable an enemy to equality and
freedom of opportunity as II is, and
that is the class formed by the labor
organizations and leaders of the
country"
Contrast the labor record of Presi-
dent Wilson with the labor record of
Governor Hughes.
Governor Hughes has never writ
ten or spoken a single word inimical
to labor. On the contrary he was the
greatest friend of labor that eve oc-
cupied the governors chair at Alba
ny. Legislative records at Albany show
that during his two terms as COVER
o of New York he signed Sc labor
laws.
In New York state, during 1872
years, only 1872 labor laws were pass
ed. One-third of these were signed
during Hughes two terms as COVER
nor.
With these records known it will
be easy for organized labor to select
its candidate in the November cleo
ton.

LABOR RECORDS OF
TWO CANDIDATES COMPARED

A comparison between the records
of President Wilson and Governor
Hughes is not to the credit of MI.
Wilson in the eyes of organized labor.
1t is immensely. { o the credit of Gov
ernor Hughes.
President Wilson has never shown
solicitude for the laboring mems well
fare-his efforts to settle the railroad
embroglio' was the first time the
President manifested the slightest in
terest in labor's affairs, and that in
terest was not due to any love for la
Dor, but to the spur of public opin-
ion which demanded there should be
no strike.
The dispute had been brewing many
months, but the President waited I'M
I'll a little more than sixty days be
fore the national election to summon
the brotherhood chiefs and the rail-
road heads to Washington. Perhaps
there was a psychological" reason
for that, if not the reason of politi-
cal advantage.
Labor unions are justified in look
ing askance at the President in view
of his spoken and written u~tterances
regarding labor.
In Mr.. Wilson'S History of the
American People" he says: 1.-THE Chi
nese were more to be desired as
workmen, if not as citizens than most
of the coarse crew that came crowd
ing in every year at the Eastern
ports"
The coarse crew" the President
described as "crowding in" included
the millions of foreign-born persons
of every nationality who are now
loyal citizens of the United States.
In the same book the President
said: And now there came multi
tudes of men of the lowest class from
the south of Italy, and men of meaner
sort out of Hungary and Poland, men
out of the ranks where there was
neither skill nor energy nor any in
itiative of quick intelligence"

We are at peace. The White House
tells us so. And Vance Mccormick
adds that ii is the President who has
akept us out of war" Yet here we
are issuing $4,000 900 in bonds.
The dilemma is interesting. Which
horn will the apologists for the ad-
ministration take? If we are at peace
if we have really been kept out OF
war why are we to have $1SO,OoO.OO 600
Of bonds to pay for the upkeep of an
army in the field? If we are at war,
what becomes of the chief slogan of
the Democratic party?
The issuance of bonds in time Of
peace is no novelty when a Democrat
sits in the White House. Cleveland
did it-and for sixteen years he was
referred to as "the last Democratic
President" Wilson will do it-and he
will succeed to Cleveland's title for
an even longer period.

1t becomes increasingly evident
that the tariff commission which the
new Democratic revenue bill estab-
fishes and which Democratic boosters
are hailing as a great exploit, is
merely a campaign dodge. The Sen
ate caucus, on the Democratic side,
refused to sanction adequate salaries
for the members of the commission,
and the board is expressly forbidden
to make arrangements for office
quarters for more than two years. In
other words, the Democratic tariff
commission is only a temporary
make-shift, designed to furnish a
theme for campaign oratory this
year. In fact. it is not a tariff COM
mission at all. 1t is a mere temporary
shelter for some deserving Demo
Gratis" who will be given the office
and who will draw the pay for the
two years allowed, but who will do
nothing to aid either Congress or the
country to determine a proper course
to be pursued in framing tariff sched-
ules.

CLEAR SKIN COMES FROM
WITHIN

1t is foolish to think you can gain
a good clear complexion by the use of
face powder. Get at the root of the
trouble and thoroughly cleanse the
system with a treatment of DR.. Kings
New Life Pills. Gentle and mild in
action, do not grippe. yet they relieve
the liver by their action on the
bowels. Good for young, adults and
aged. Go after a clear complexion
