thus assuring the people of the United
States that Idaho stands so,iarelv hack
of her most DISTINGUISHED senator.
Rev. Joel Brown. OF Meridian-I be-
| lieve the election of Charles Evans
Hughes to be necessary that the honor
and integrity of our country NAV he
restored. In 1912 we fought for the
right to sail the seas. but in 1915 we
are told to stay at home if we do not
want to lose life or property. From
the days OF the illustrious Washington
to those of the school teacher of Prince
ton we were encouraged to make in
! vestments wherever industry. thrift
and employment for the people might
| invite. but now those who have so
invested have no protection to their
property or their lives but are called
pirates and looters."
Battles are not necessary to maintain
these rights-rights ours. by battles
fought but a man in tho White House
who while governor Of New York,
showed by his dealings with the race
track gamblers and the grafters In in
surance circles and elsewhere that he
had the courage OF his convictions and
the legal conceptions of what to do.
we want Mr.. Hughes in the White
House because the policies for which
ne STANDS are the policies necessary to
meet ana successfully cope with the
problems to be met at the close of the
war in Europe. The Underwood tariff
bill is Mr.. Wilson's method of deal
ing with our commerce; under it we
have seen the doors wide open to the
commerce of the world, our factories
closed and our people forced into the
called for our products that they could
not stop to produce. lr such disastrous
constituencies followed its enactment
then what Will be the consequences if
that measure Is our standard when all
the nations now. at war begin to re-
built their ruined fortunes and seek our
land as their golden opportunity to sell
their child and woman made goods
In competition with our we'll paid work
men?
FEARS HARD TIMES.
DR.. j. w. Hamer. of Middleton-In
my opinion the defeat of Hughes
would prove national calamity with
the present Democratic laws In Of
feet after the close of the war there
will be the same old Democratic hard
times. That the Democratic leaders of
this state are seeking to weaken SEN
ator Borah by carving the state for
Wilson is not to be doubted. No true
friend of the senator VIII vote for tbe
re- election of Wilson. A vote for
Hughes is not only vote for Hughes.
but it is an Endorsement of Senator
Borah and proper manifestation of
the just resentment of the citizens OF
the state for the effort of the Demo-
Gratis to lessen his Influence at Wash
ington.
George Ovlear. OF Middleton--M,,
prediction is that this stata is goirs
to give Hughes an ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
