The situation in the democratic party
is not so difficult to figure out. There
are but two real contests on. They are
for lieutenant governor and secretary
of state. James H. Frazier of Occur
'Alene and Ernest L. Parker of Cot
tonwood seek the nomination for
lieutenant governor. Parker entered the
race with the support of many of the
leaders here For secretary of state
William T. Daugherty and Joseph Han
sen are candidates. Both are strong
men and the outcome of their race is un-
certain. Candidates for all other nomi-
nations from congressman down are un-
opposed.-Tribune.

ONE MORE ADDED TO LIST.

Another man is missing from the con-
struction camp. John Shields, one of
the men at camp, asked permission to 60
fishing Sunday, up White Bird creek.
The permission was granted, he went,
and never came back. Shields was in
for term of seven to fourteen years
and had just fourteen months more to
serve.
This makes the fourth escape since
camp was established here.

In the congressional race Congress
man Addison t. Smith, candidate to
succeed himself, seems safe. He will be
renominated The contest is for the
second seat in congress held by Con-
gresham Robert n. McCracken.
Besides McCracken, Burton l.. French,
kformer congressman and +. Il. Elliott,
state senator from Bonner county, are
contestants. Strong argument is be-
ing made to give northern Idaho one of
the congressman. Both are from the
south. This may operate against Nc
Cracker. He may offset it by quiet
organization work. French has always
been a remarkable vote-getter in this
state with the exception of the occasion
when he ran for United States senator.
He will either run as strong as in form
er years or go to the other extreme.
Elliott S friends assert the fact the
democrats selected John V. Stanley of
his own city Boomers Ferry, is proof
they figured the republican nominee
would be Elliott. The dry vote has no
preference with any of these three can
didates and will be divided. The farmer
vote will determine which one of them
is to be nominated.
For the other state offices NJ. J.
Sweely for attorney general, L. V. Patch
for lieutenant governor, are strong
contestants Secretary of State Bar
ker has a genuine fight on his hands to
win out in the primaries over Chancey
Wallace, of Nezperce, and Erv. John
son of Boise State Treasurer John w.
Eagleson and Fred E. Fisk are can
didates for treasurer, but it difficult
to defeat a one-termn man in this state.
For state auditor an interesting and I'M
determined four-cornered race is on.

nation of state superintendent of pub
lie instruction. Miss Redfield seems to

misfortune to get his nose broken one
day last week. He was riding horse
back, and the horse commenced buck

Now that the political situation pro-
misses to become interesting in Idaho,
this state has not been overlooked by
the suffragets. The Woman's party
has turned its attention to this state
figuring it ripe field for converts
to its cause.-the proposed federal
amendment to the constitution by
which suffrage will be given to all
states in the union. Mrs. Albert G.
Muhee and Jane Pincus have been
delegated by that party as the vanguard
to carry on the work of the cause in
Idaho. They have established their
state headquarters in Boise, districted
the state, giving the north to Mrs
Muhee and he south to Miss Pincus. and
are prepared to wage a campaign that
will "iine-upo Idaho for the amend.

Cen John ]. Pershing.

His next post was back at West
Point as tactical officer, but in 1898 at
his own request he rejoined his regi-
ment, the Tenth Cavalry, and went to
the Spanish war. He was promoted
for gallantry at the battle of Ell Caney
in Cuba and returned from Santiago
to Washington to solve problems as
the head of the division of customs
and insular affairs.
1t was in September 1899 that he
was ASST gned to duty in the Philip
pines, again at his own request, and
he became adjutant general, execu-
tive officer, of the department of Min
danao and Jolo. Then he studied the
Moro problem" and in June, 1901,
he was sent out single-handed to cope
with the old problem which Spain had
shirked and which revolved about
Lake Lanao in the island of Mindanao
where a horde of murderous farmers
Mohammedans, were engaged in the
work of killing infidels.
Subjugates Filipinos.
These natives, commanded by their
dattos, or warlords, who in turn were
led by their sultans, increased the
number of raids on coast towns when
the American soldiers arrived, and
their first check was received in the
fight at Bayan, brilliant, tactical
victory for Pershing.
When the sultan of BaccoIod would
not be conciliated, Pershing, in com
mand of a battalion of infantry. a
squadron of cavalry and a section of
guns, warned him that Bacolod would
be destroyed. In two days the fort
in which the sultan dreamed of per-
petual security was only a memory
and Pershing's men had received on
their bayonets the charge of a hun
dred maddened Malays The casualty
list for the United States soldiers con-
sisted of two slightly wounded men
Then other strongholds of the
Moros were demolished, one after
another, until forty forts were de-
stroyed and the island of Mindanao
was placed under subsection, while
only two Americans Were killed
Pershing became the military gov
ernor of the island; he became the
friend of the subjugated natives, was
elected datto by them and sat as
judge over their disputes.
In 1903 he was relieved of the
command of the Lanao expedition
because of illness. Later he led
commands against the rebellious Moros
under the Sultan of Jolo and over
them his victory was also complete.
In 1906 he became brigadier
general. Under the law President
Roosevelt could not have bestowed
the rank of colonel upon Captain
Pershing, so the president gave him
| the record promotion.

Washington, June 19.-Ever since
he came out of West Point in 1886
as senior cadet captain, the highest
honor there, Brig Gen. John ].
Pershing, who is in command of the
punitive expedition into Mexico, has
been living and fighting battles that
fit him pre-eminent1y to deal with
Villa and his followers.
General Pershing was ten years in
the southwest, fighting Geronimo and
his Apaches. He was in the Spanish
war with a negro regiment and was
called by his colonel the bravest and
coolest man under fire he had ever
seen, and he accomplished the eX-
ira ordinary difficult task of subjugat-
ing the Moros in the Philippines.
l. It was for all of these things prob
ably, but chiefly for his work in the
Philippines, that President Roosevelt
in Septen Der, 1906, promoted Cap
tain Pershing to the rank of briga-
der general. jumping him over the
heads of S62 other officers-the rec
ord jump in the history of the army.
In January, 1914, General Pershing
left the island of Mindanao and four
months later he left San Francisco
for the Mexican border in command
of the Eighth brigade. On August
81 of last year his wife, who was
Frances Warren, daughter of United
States Senator Francis E. Warren of
wyoming, and three of their little chill
dren were burned to death in the fire
at the Preside in San Francisco.
General Pershing's first duty after
being graduated from West Point,
where his rank as senior cadet cap
tain stamped him as the nearest of his
classmates to the ideal of a soldier,
was to plunge into the campaigns that
destroyed the power of Geronimo and
opened the southwest to a tardy civ
| liza ton.
Wins Praise From General Miles.
| He was assigned to the old Sixth
cavalry, and in August of 1887,
scarcely a year from school. he was
complimented by General Miles for
marching his troops, with pack train.
over rough country, 140 miles in As
hours, bringing in every animal and
man in good condition
In 1889 Lieutenant Pershing res
cued a party of horse thieves and
cowboys who were besieged by hos
tile Zunis without firing a shot, for
which he was highly recommended
for discretion" by General Carr. There
were other recommendations which he
won during the ten years of service in
the department of Arizona during the
| desperate clashes there.
