Let the people, ROBBED of their
rights, rise in their might at the
coming November election and rebuke
the Wilson administration, removing
the power back of the idaho patronage
machine, and the machine will disap-
pear; reflect Wilson, put the popular
stamp of approval on the Wilson
administration, and Elderism Will
never die.
People who will not maintain their
rights will not long have rights to
maintain.
Does tyranny, because it is clothed
in the purple robes of royalty, look
more inviting, and are we To bow our
knee and bend the neck while a presi-
dent of this nation, elected by the
people, strips us of our rights and
imposes the rule of his political
henchmen over us?
Or Will Idaho democracy, asserting
its power and demanding it's rights,
say to the national administration
SO far thou shalt thou go and ne
farther. If you, Woodrow Wilson,
have power al d time to build pat.
/ ronage machine to rule Idaho, YOU
must take time to undo your owr
work and restore popular governmen,
to the people.

Says Reporters
AndACtorS are
In Same Class

Reporters and newspaper men in
general are in the same class with
actors-both groups are never vici-
ous-but good. kind hearted indi-
v1duals who have a terrible time 10
keep a cent" said Rev. John Talbot
Smith in his lecture TO the NOtre
Dame journalists Monday morning.
Treating the subject Of the press in
general way. the speaker said ia
part: Newspaper work is only a
stepping stone for something higher
and the only reason for this is that
the journals are in the hands OF high
finance. The editorial writer's must
write on subjects that will favor
high finance. The subordinates 70
the editor are like the clerks of an
ordinary trust. bound by the orders
of the pen higher up in the bust
ness.
But the condition of the press is
not hopeless, for it is an independ-
ent institution and, like the stage,
just as soon as the people find that
papers are no longer free, they will
attempt TO start papers of their own.
In New York at the present time you
get nothing but the allied side. One
paper. the Irish World. is the only
journal that dare 20 give the Ger
man side OF the present European
war"
During the course of the talk the
lecturer gave several examples Of
how the eastern papers have been
influenced by the advertisers as well
as by high finance. The advertising
man." he said lis the lord of the
newspaper business and he is in
shilling the pagan motives into a
pagan press that does rot follow
even a pagan philosophy" He also
predicted that when the younger
generation of newspaper men get a
chance in the field with their ethical
training that they will tend TO infiu-
ence the whole profession, thus
making the newspaper ethics play
an important part in the moulding
Of the editorial policies.
