CLAIMED ILLEGAL

LISTS SUBMITTED TO JUDGES
W. A. Frewert Directs Officials to
Book Names Only of Those They
know are Legal Voters.

Charges today were filed with Town
Clerk W. A. Frewert that illegal steps
were made Tuesday to register voters
in Rock Island township.
According to the information Mr..
Frewert has certain people made a
house to house canvass in each pre-
cinct, secured names of voters and
submitted them to the election judges
to be placed on the poll books. Mr..
Frewert said that he understands that
the canvass was made sometime be-
fore the registration date.
The charges filed caused him to
direct a letter TO each OF the precinct
judges demanding that the officials OF
election enter on the register only
names of those they personally know
TO be voters in each district or the
names of those who called at the
polling place and signed the poll
books.
Following is the letter Mr.. Frewert
sent to the judges:

Dear Sir: 1t has come to my
knowledge that certain attempts have
been made to present an alleged can
vass of certain districts to the cleo
ton judges and have the names en-
tered on the register as the legal
voters of such district.
This is manifestly an Illegal pro-
cedure and in all districts where such
action has been taken it will be nee
cessary for the judges to make new
register and register only such names
for the first registration as they know
personally to be legal voters and
such as may personally register.

illegal registration causes an IL

ter has been called to your attention
it is hoped that any mistake of this
kind if permitted in your district will

WHY THEY HATE RoRAH.

Senator Borah has been the most
active and effective speaker against
Wilson during the campaign. He has
spoken all over the country and has
flayed Wilson numerically. This has
aroused a spirit of bitter retaliation
and, acting upon the wishes of the
President himself, the national Demo
cratic managers, two weeks ago set
the machinery in motion with the
purpose not only to capture for Will
son the electoral vote of Idaho, nor
mally Republican state, which is
apparently minor consideration, but
to "get Borah,' humiliate him in his
own state, descredit him in the ma
ton, weaken his influence as lead
er in congress and lay the founda-
ton for his possible defeat two years
hence.

RURAL CREDITS BAIT TO
CATCH THE FARMERS VOTE

The so-called Rural Credits law
was enacted by congress as a pure
ly political measure, to be used as
campaign material by the Wilson
managers There was no sincerity be-
mind it, and farmers will never re-
eeiye any practical benefit under it.
1t could have been passed two years
ago but was held for campaign pur-
poses.
The law provides procedure OF
endless red tape before any loan
can be obtained Farmers who have
taken up land know what this means
The law requires the farmer who
wants a loan to take stock in these
banks to the extent of 5 per cent
of his loan, and If he ever gets a
loan he becomes liable, not only for
it, but for all the loans made by the
association to which he belongs.
Moreover, his property held as Sc
curity for that loan, cannot be sold
by him without the consent OF the
Loan board. Think of such an absur-
dity!
Such law was not intended to
give the farmer cheap money but
90 give an opportunity for the Demo-
cratic managers to play cheap poll
tics in their quest for farmer votes.

CANNOT FOOL REPUBLICAN,
WOMEN OE IDAHO

Wilson'S campaign managers are
trying to fool the women of Idaho,
and especially Republican women,
with the plea that he kept us out
of war" He might as logically claim
that he kept us out of the poor
house"-and the high cost of living,
which Wilson promised to reduce,
might give some other willy pobti-
clan a chance to claim that before
long.
The American people kept them
selves out of war with the European
powers by going on record so strong
ly for strict neutrality that no Presi-
dent could disregard the orders
from them.
The American people wanted to
keep out of war with Mexico but
President Wilson's bungling has Gre
ated condition of war with that
country.
Ii Wilson is reelected, there will
be '"war with Mexico" for the rea-
son that his vacilation. his unwar-
ranted interference with the inter
nal affairs of Mexico, and his abso-
Lutte failure to demand protection for
American citizens has earned for
the United States not only the con-
tempt but the hatred of all Mexico.
The women of Idaho know the
MEXICAN story we'll, and they Will
not be fooled by the Wilson cam
paign pleadings.
On the contrary, at least those
who are Republicans-win vote for
Hughes, who will compose the Mexi-
can situation and bring about peace
with honor.

NJ. N. BAKER FOR SENATOR.

For the office of State Senator
the Republicans of Canyon County
have in NJ N. Baker, of Nampa, a
splendid man, man who has had
. busy and successful career as a
farmer and stockraiser. He served
his district two terms in the legis-
lature Of Iowa, his former place Of
residence. He came to Idaho and
located at Nampa nearly IL years
ago, where he has been identified
more or less with the most notable
progressive movements OF the com
munity. Mr.. Baker has many old
Iowa friends in this end of the
county who are losing no emporium
ity to say a good word for him, as
a man who can be depended upon
to exercise good Judgment and WELD
strong influence in the state SEN
ate for the enactment of beneficial
legislation.

SLAP At eoRAH.

The third FEATURE has to do with
the movement of considerable pro-
portion that is said to have been
started by President Wilson him.
and directed against Senator Borah,
of Idaho.
1t will be recalled that former
Senator Fred T. Dubois recently
visited Idaho in the interest of the
Wilson campaign.
Some of the indiscreet ones to
whom he gave his confidence have
since been talking and what they
have said has been verified by cir
cumstantial evidence as well as by
statements secured from the Demo
cratic headquarters at Chicago, where
Mr.. Dubois made his report.
