WILSON |SLAUDED
AS MAN Of PEACE
BY SENATOR GORE
Remarkable Speech by Dem
ocratic Orator in Defense
of the Administration
Appeals to Progressives.

Senator Thomas P. Gore, the blind
man eloquent of Oklahoma, last night
at the Pinney theater delivered one of
the most remarkable campaign ad-
dresses ever heard in Boise, an address
listened to by as many people as could
be crowded into the theater without
violating the city ordinance and an ad-
dress in which the orator was time
after time given applause which finally
ended up with a cheer. which came al
audience.
The greatest enthusiasm shown dur
ing his mastery discourse was when
Senator Gore most bitterly condemned
persons whose patriotism, he said was
so narrow that they were trying to stir
up a sectional feeling between the
north and the south and declared that
nothing could be more unpatriotic than
to try to wave the bloody shirt. He
then cited the appropriation bills pass
ed for the benefit Of the southern
states and contrasted them with those
passed for the northern states. He
cited the $4,000 bill to devise ways
and means of exterminating the insects
and bugs which preyed upon the cotton
plants OF the south and asked IL the
protection of that great industry could
be termed sectional measure. He
said the agricultural bill carried with
it an appropriation Of s425.0o0 for the
determination of predatory animals
which preyed upon the livestock OF
the northwest and yet in all the south
he had never heard the word of Sec
tional legislation for the north.
LEGISLATIVE RECORD.
He cited measure after measure
passed by the Democratic congress un-
der the leadership of Woodrow Wilson
and held them up as fruits of Demo-
cratic administration. He especially
Evening capital news. (Boise, Idaho) 1901-1927, 1916-10-27

mentioned the child labor law, the fed :
eral reserve banking law, the rural
credits law to become effective Jan. 1,
the income tax law, the bonded ware
house system, the revision of the tariff
the Adamson eight-hour law. and the
workmen's compensation law.
He painted vivid word picture OF
the bloody battle fields of Europe and
contrasted the scenes in that war
stricken continent with the scenes in
this country. where men left their
homes with smiles, where peace and
plenty abounded and there we're nc
vacant chairs because of strife.
He won long applause with his
statement. that not for all the crown
ed heads of Europe would he send one
Boise boy from his home fireside ia
the maelstrom Of war" He also declar-
ed that vote for Wilson meant a vote
for peace with honor, but that vote
for Hughes meant vote for war, pro
viding he acted as he talked and as
Roosevelt promised he would do"
Throughout his address Senator Gore
who Is an able story teller, added to
his points by stories which brought
down the house and yet brought home
the logic of his statements.
At 1920 o'clock the theater was
crowded and more than 500 people
were turned away. but not without
hearing the issues of the campaign dis
cussed, as an overflow meeting was ad
dressed by Ross W. Bates, A. C. Hind
