BoRAH AT BOISE, IDAHO
Spoke But Labored to Present Cause
With Which There Was No Sympathy.

Boise Oct. 20.-For the first time in
his career, United States Senator Borah
failed to arouse Boise audience. The
Pinney theatre was crowded and the
doors were shut on crowd outside,
the band was in the hall and played the
Star Spangled Banner, the Boise quar-
tet sang patriotic and catchy airs and
the whole meeting was arranged with a
view of arousing public enthusiasm.
But the enthusiasm would not matera-
lie; the audience sat stolid and indif-
ferent to the studied climax of the
orator, as in effort after effort he en-
deavored to win applause. SO notable
was the lack of enthusiasm that the
Daily Statesman was forced to apologize
and attempt to explain it and the speak
er himself was all but ratified His
speech became labored one; it was
shell without kernal-the heart was
not in tit was perfunctory and of
that character where an attorney rea-
Lies his client IS case is unjust. Never
once did the Senator refer 20 the State
ticket to his party and only once to the
National candidate. And well he might
omit mention of the State ticket for it
is a Brady machine ticket from top to
bottom, and there are those who predict
its success would be the beginning of
the end of Borah s influence
The Senator was clearly not at ease,
which led to confusion OF ideas and
rank misstatements. To make a point
of alleged sectional legislation the Sena-
tor stated the duty on hay and barley
had been removed by the Underwood
bill, while the products of Southern
fields were protected. Everyone knows
that cotton, the staple crop of the South
is on the free list and that on hay there
is duty of two dollars per ton and on
barley of fifteen cents per bushel Yet
the Senators 8 glazing error is printed
in the copy Of the speech in The Daily
Statesman of the neat morning.
This was only one of the Senator 3
erroneous statements. Many others
were more disingeneous as his efforts
to prove the Adamson law inimicable
TO labor, notwithstanding that labor is
solid for it; and his efforts to disparage
the child labor law. Taken all in all
the meeting was of funeral order and
at its close the vast audience left the
building in gloom and without enthu.

REPUBLICAN CAMP IN GLOOM
Variety of Development Pointing to
President Wilson.

New York, Oct. l9.--Gloom filled the
Headquarters of the republican national
committee today. Everyone from
Chairman Wilcox down was depressed.
Reports have come from the west
and middle west that the Hughes cam
paign has been a failure and that Presi-
dent Wilson is growing in popularity
q by leaps and bounds. The republicans
have taken the management of the
Ohio campaign out of the hands of
local men and will run it from national
headquarters.
Roosevelt s failure to stir up Hughes
sentiment has the republican manag-
ers worried Chairman Wilcox has
received many requests that he be
taken Oh the stump, while from no
place has there come request that he
make a second speech. The flat failure
of his speech at Wilkesbarre an Satur-
day night has proved disconcerting to
the republican managers, who were
playing their last card for the labor
vote.
To add to the gloom, Fred Greiner,
republican leader of Buffalo, told
Chairman Wilcox that the workingmen
are for President Wilson s reelection
almost unanimously and that heroic
treatment must be applied to save Mr..
Hughes.
The hardest blow is the collapse of
the republican candidate 3 metropoli
tan newspaper support. The New York
Tribune, which has long and I'M
broken record of republicanism and
which a few days ago felt compelled
to disagree pointedly with Mr.. Hughes
Tnsifapin gnaaab this mnrntpu h
lished political forecast which
amounts to virtual confession of the
defeat OF the republican candidate.
This forecast purports to be based up
on confidential reports from every
doubtful state received by one of the
most prominent campaign managers.
1t gives Hughes only 2S4 votes, in
GLIDING Ohio s "a and West Virginia Is
8, which everyone knows are safe for
Wilson and that, if Hughes must have
them to win, his case is hopeless.
Tonight the New York Evening Post IS
& story of the republican campaign slump
follows its editorial declaration last
Saturday that Hughes has proved to
be a disappointment. The Post, which
set out to be friendly to Hughes, is
through with him. Tonight's New
York Evening Mail, which is support
ing Mr.. Hughes, makes this interesting
admission: Roosevelt is thorne in
the side of those campaign managers
who are afraid of the German American
vote.
every largely on that account he has
been shunted off on speaking tour
into territory where it is estimated he
can do the least HARM"
An interesting sidelight on the di-
aemma of the republican press that is
called upon to support candidate with
out an issue is furnished by the fact
that the Philadelphia Public Ledger's
$4,000 prize contest for the best editor
ials in support of each presidential can
didate was won for the Wilson side by
Ernest F. Boddington of the editorial
staff of the Philadelphia North Ameri-
can, which is half -heartedly supporting
Hughes. The Ledger today announced
that 459 contestants urged President
Wilson's return to office, while only
329 editorials were submitted in favor
of Mr. Hughes.
