Baker Praises Wilson.

Columbus, O., June 2.-Secretary Of
War Baker, in an address as chair
man of the Ohio Democratic conven'
tion here today, declared the Repub'
lican party is an aggregation of fac
tions agreeing upon no set of princi'
ples," and compared it with the Dem
ocratic party which, he said, had car.
ried out wise and definite program
in economic measures, national pre-
paredness and foreign policy.
The rsrty will be continued in pow
er, he predicted.
Secretary Baker praised President
Wilson for pressing enactment of the
federal reserve and rural credits sys-
tenn and of the tariff reduction, fol-
upholding American ideals in dealing
with Mexico, and for steering the
United States away from participa-
tion in the European war.
He expressed satisfaction that the
preparedness program had made. At.
tacking the Republican party, Secre'
tary Baker said:
"To speak of a man as Republican
today Identifies him with no cause
escribes to him no opinion and, wheth.
er it affilates him with Progressives
or reactionaries or both, cannot bt
told until after the national conven
tion next week."
He declared that Senator Harding
of Ohio, who will preside at the Chi
cago convention, represents one fac
ton, which believes the tari1f shoult
be the issue in the coming campaign
while other Republicans favor an at
tack on the foreign policy of the pres
ent administration. The opposing
camps are divided into those who be
lieve the administration has been to-
bellicose and those who fear it ha
been too peace-loving, he said.
Mr.. Baker said that intervention il
Mexico had been urged by "som
American owners of Mexican mines
some American properties of Mexican
concessions, some Americans VIII
looked with longing eyes on Mexico a
Naboth's vineyard"
Border disputes have been unfortu
nate, he explained, but the only al
tentative was "war upon these people
who have willed no act of aggression
on us, and to spend years, expensiv
of life and treasure, to impress a
alien civilization on these people"

MUST TAKE ROOSEVELT,
DECLARES GOV. JOHNSON

Chicago, June 3.-Among the prom
inent Progressives to arrive today
were Governor Hiram w. johnson and
Chester Rowell Of California and
James R. Garfield of Ohio, who i'm
mediately went into conference with
George w. Perkins and other Bull
Moose leaders. Governor johnson
said:
president Wilson will be bard
man to beat, in my opinion. Colonel
Roosevelt has made the issues for
this campaign. 1t would be inconsis-
tent for the Republicans to take The
issues without the man. Spedxing
from the standpoint of patriotism,
should say that the Republicans must
take Roosevelt. / would be in favor
of having the Progressives wait a
reasonable time before making a nom-
ination.

PERKINS AT CHICAGO
PLEADS FOR HARMONY

Chicago, June George w. Perk-
ins, chairman of the executive commit
tee of the Progressive party, arrived
here today and will remain until aft
er the Progressive convention June 7.
Mr.. Perkins deprecated "bitter feeling
being worked up in the various camps
over the different candidates for pres
ident."
"This is pre-eminently time when
every man at these conventions should
be an American first" he said. "This
is the spirit which in my opinion
should guide every delegate.
81 observe that Csrranza in his note
sent to Washington yesterday accuses
the Wilson administration of duplicity
and deception.
"This is the first time that any for
eign power has dared to accuse the
United States of treachery.
"Our prime object here should be
to proceed with all possible speed to
put stop to this sort of thing and
Immediately restore the good name
of this country in the eyes of the
world"

Smut Problem Grows

In Lewis county, Mr.. Wade finds
the smut problem of growing i'm
portance. He says: "In my rounds,
l find an unusual amount of stink
ing smut in the winter wheat.
Closer examination shows that from
ten to fifteen per cent of the wheat
is affected. These findings led me
to examine some which l knew
were sown last year before the har-
vest and in every case that these
were practically free from smut,
while adjoining fields, which had
been summer fallowed and sown in
the usual manner with the same
seed and with the same treatment
for smut, showed from ten to twen-
ty-five per cent of smutted heads. "

F. A. Wallace has contracted

with number of residence owners
to build concrete sidewalks. He is
now putting in walk along the
side and front of the Kendrick State
Bank building. He is figuring on
a contract to put in walk the
length of the block in front of the
park. The building of this walk
would be great improvement to
the town and would be good ex-
ample for the city to set for the
property owners. There are a num-
Der of walks IN town that are posi-
lively dangerous and anything but

State Ticket Primary Results

Boise, Idaho, Sept. 6.-With re-
turns in from 800 precincts of the
most populous counties in all parts
of the state and a total count of
$4,000 votes, D. w. Davis of Amer
ican Falls was assured of the repub-
lican nomination for governor. His
vote Of H. ,O32 totaled that of any
two of MS three competitors-Crum
5,448, Captain Davis 5,377 and
Taylor 5,275.
The republican nominee for lieu
tenant governor is in doubt, both
B. M. Holt and Captain L. V. Patch
having more than 1000 votes.
Holt has a margin of 200 but late
returns indicate that his majority
will grow. Holt. 1920; Patch,
II 900.
Two judges are TO be nominated on
the non-partison ballot for justice
of the supreme court. These places
are also in doubt with John C. Rice
safely in the lead and assured of
one place, and a difference in the
count of $50 between r. N. Dunn
and l. N. Sullivan for the second
place on the ballot. The vote:
Rice, S,494; Dunn, 1924; Sullivan,
1854.
Today's returns confirmed the
nomination Of other republicans on
the state ticket, ex-Congressman
Burton l.. French and Congressman
Addison T. Smith for Congress,
making the defeat of one of the
present congressman, R. M. Nc
Cracken; George D. Barker for Sec
retary of state; George w. Lewis
for state auditor; M. ]. Sweeley
for attorney-general; Ethel E. Red
field for superintendent of public
instruction, and R. N. Bell for in
spector of mines.
On the democratic ticket there
were only two state contests, and
returns are so meager that no fore.
cast is possible.

Postoffice Robbers Identified

Deputy Sheriff John Hall has
just returned from Spokane where
he went as witness in the prelim-
mary case and to identify an iron
contrivance, similar to one found
near the scene of the Marcus rob-
berry, as one found near the Kend-
rick postoffice the morning after it
was robbed. The instrument is one
used to pull combination knobs
from safes, and was made on Dona-
vans special order at the Interna-
tional Iron Works, according to the
testimony of workmen who were
witnesses in the preliminary and
who identified Donavan and the
man taken with him, who gave the
name Of John Hayes, as being the
ones who ordered the instrument.
Mrs. Weaver, who lives on Amer
lean Ridge, has identified Donavan
as one of the men who took break
fast at her house the morning the
Kendrick safe was robbed. This
and other evidence which the sher-
ifs office claims it can produce
should Donavan be brought here
for trial, tends very conclusively
to connect the prisoner with the
crime, local officials state.
Should Donavan secure his free
dom from the charges of robbing
the Marcus postoffice, the postal in
spection department will bring him
to Moscow to stand trial for the
Kendrick robbery. Hayes, arrest
ed with Donavan, was released, no
evidence having been produced to
connect him with the robberies.
| A search of Donavan's record in
the east proves that he has served
both in Iowa and Kansas peniten'
tiaries for safe blowing according
to Deputy Sheriff Hall. who went
over the matter with the postal au
thorities in Spokane. Pictures OBJ
tanned from eastern penal institu
tions where Donavan was incarcer
ated, prove that he is the same maj
who committed the eastern robber
les, although he denies that he eve
served time for the charge of bun g
larry before. Star Mirror.

Indians Are Citizens

Lewiston. Idaho, Sept. 4.-Dr.
Jacob Breid, superintendent of the
Lapwai Indian school and acting
Indian agent there, has given out a
letter received from the depart
ment signed by E. B. Merritt, as
sistant commissioner, declaring that
the Nez Perce Indians, under the
allotments of land in severalty un-
der act Of February s, 1887, are
citizens of the United States and
entitled to all the privileges of an
elector, and that "the Indians should
be advised by you of their right
and urged to fight all efforts made
to disfranchise them"
The question of the citizenship
of the Indians was raised at the
last local option election wher
many of them voted dry.

Edison Favors Wilson

Saratoga, N. Y, Sept. 6.-Thom-
as A. Edison, the electricity wizard.
republican and supporter of Theo-
dore Roosevelt for the presidential
nomination, announces that he will
work and vote for Woodrow Wilson.
He said:
"Not since 1860 has any cam
paign made such a direct call on
simon-pure Americanism. The
times are too serious to talk or
think in terms of republicanism or
democracy. Real Americans must
drop parties and get down to fun
damental principles.
"More than any other president
in my memory, Woodrow Wilson
has been faced by succession of
tremendous problems any one OF
which decided the wrong way
would have had disastrous conse-
quences. Wilson's decisions so far
have not got us into any serious
trouble, nor are they likely to.
"He has given us peace with
honor. Hughes talk about the
United States being despised is non
sense. Neutrality is mighty try
ing policy, but back of it are inter
national law, the rights of human
ity and the future of civilization.
with reference to Mexico,
think the president has acted wise
ly, Justly and courageously.'

Latah Socialist Ticket

Moscow, Sept. 6.-Representa-

at the city park yesterday in an ad-
journed meeting and nominated a
full ticket for the general election
on November 7. About 80 were
present. The socialists failed to
make nominations in time for the
direct primary elections held Tues
day and took advantage of the pro-
vision made by law for such a sit
uation by meeting and making

A Probable Fact

If you could afford to take the
time to make an automobile tour
of Latah county you would prob
ably be impressed with the follow
ing facts: That the roads general
ly have been greatly improved dur
ing the past few years. That the
bean and corn crop in the vicinity
of Kendrick is the best in the coun-
ty. That the orchards are smaller
and not so we'll kept as they were
five or six years ago. That road
hogs are still in evidence and speed
fiends becoming more numerous.
That there is more travel on the
county road than ever before
and a big per cent of the travel is
done in Ford cars. That the farm
improvements indicate prosperous
condition throughout the county
That the more you travel over the
county the better satisfied you are
with the Potlatch country. And
when you strike main street on
your way home you declare it to be
the toughest piece of road in the
county.
