very much relieved with the turn
events had taken with his political
fortunes with the Capital News.
Dewey is apt to be up against a
pretty hard proposition with the News,
as with the election of Republican
ticket the soft snap that the News
has had at the state house will be
over. Not only did Governor Alexan-
der provide places for two members
of the staff of the Capital News in the
persons of c. O. Broxon, its editor
who was made the governors private
secretary, and who wrote all the gov
ernor's vetoes and proclamations on
account of the governors inability to
use correct English, and w. G..
Scholtz, the editor of the Capital
News weekly edition which is known
as farm journal, ocholtz being placed
in charge Of the Farm Markets bu-
reau, but Alexander issued orders to
all his appointive officers that their
Job work patronage of the different
offices should be placed with the Capt.
tai News. The first of October the
records of the state auditors office
showed that the Capital News had re-
ceived $4655.6l worth of job work
| from the state, and the biennial re-
ports of the different appointive Off
cials which will be directed to the
Capital News will swell this figure to
some $1,000 or $1,000. So we find that
the Capital News has been we'll paid
for supporting Governor Alexander
and for making its present vicious as
saults upon D. w. Davis. Broxon
draws $2,4OO a year, Scholtz draws
$2,400 a year. Alexander paid the
paper $4,000 for support, and the tax
payers of the state will pay about the
same at the end of the year through
the Democratic offices for job work
secured from the Capital News with
out bids or competition. When this
patronage is cut off with the new ad-
ministration, everybody will agree
with Senator Brady that Dewey has
bought something"

THE IDAHO STATE FAIR.

The Idaho State Fair this year was
great success. The receipts were
enough to pay the running expenses of
the fair. The exhibits were splendid.
The attendance was all that could be
expected However, it is apparent
that the fair should receive support
from the state or county or both. AS
long as it is on its present basis il
will be an extra hazardous venture
from financial standpoint. Mr.. Amos
]. Miller who has had the manage
ment of the fair this year is con-
vinced that the public must lend as
sistance if the fair is to be made a
success. The people of this section Of
the state should undertake the
financing of the fair on a solid, sub
stantial basis.
The fair recently had many ad-
vantages that we cannot expect it tC
have in the future. For instance Man
ager Miller devoted weeks of his time
to the fair. He worked without pay
and while his expenses were sup
posed to have been paid by the asso-
citation, we will venture the assertion
that many dollar was paid out by
Mr.. Miller himself We cannot hope
to find men like Mr.. Miller every year
We cannot expect Mr. Miller to give
his time year after year to this enter.
prise at a loss of time and money
The fair association has been very
fortunate in the past. For many years
Mr.. J. B. Gowen sacrificed his time
and money for the fair. Mr.. Miller
did the same thing last year We fear
that volunteers will be lacking next
year or at any rate the year after, The
business men and farmers of this sec
ton of Idaho must undertake tc
finance the fair. We call attention tc
the fair at this time in hopes that il
will not be forgotten.
At this time the good work done BY
Mr.. Miller should not be overlooked
He worked hard and faithfully and tc
his efforts is due, in large measure
the success Of the Idaho State Fair.

PATRIOTS OF '76 NO BETTER
THAN MEXICAN BANDITS.

Newton D. Baker, the pacifist who
succeeded Lindley Garrison as secre-
tary of war in the cabinet of President
Wilson, is out stumping the country
for his chief The burden of Mr.
Bakers song is that the Mexican
policy of the administration is all that
can be desired. He asks those who
cannot understand the policy of Pres
ident Wilson to read the Declaration
of independence and the Golden Rule.
The reign of bloodshed that has ex-
istcd in Mexico during the past three
years is compared to the Revolution
airy War. The bandit chieftains are
compared to Washington and other
Revolutionary leaders and the cut
throats who first follow Carranza and
then Villa and desert each with i'm
partiality are compared to the patriots
of TO The campaign addresses of
Mr.. Baker are unique estionably the
mature conclusions of President Will
son, else they would not be uttered
In order that the readers of The Tri-
bune may know exactly what Presi-
dent Wilson and Secretary Baker
think of the fathers of this country we
quote from Mr.. Bakers address:
"Washington's soldiers in the march
to Valley Forge stole everything they
could lay their hands on. They stole
the silver vessels from the churches
and melted them up to buy things to
drink. They drove ministers of the
Gospel and preachers out of their
churches and out OF the country
The Caldwell tribune., 1916-11-03

The President is in favor of letting
the people in Mexico fight out their in
dependence the way we fought ours.
Whenever you hear anybody
say they cannot understand the Presi-
dents Mexican policy. tell them to go
and read the Declaration of Independ
ence and the Golden Rule"
Comparison of the patriots of '76
with the ragged, thieving cutthroats of
Mexico who pose as revolutionists
while simply taking advantage of the
distracted conditions of the country
to rob, pillage, plunder and murder, is
aninsult to the memory of the fathers
of the country. We note that Mr..
Baker has been severely dealt with by
patriotic societies in all parts of the
country. Neither he nor his chief,
President Wilson, have recalled or re-
pudiated the address and it must stand
as the mature conclusion of both
Fortunately there is at hand the
testimony of men whose words and
deeds will be reverently remembered
when the words and deeds of Wilson
and Baker are forgotten or remembered
with shame and humiliation. Speaking
of his men at Valley Forge, Washing
ton said:
Naked and starving as they are, we
cannot enough admire the incompara-
Bile patience and fidelity of the sol
diery. No history now extant can fur
| nish instance of an army's suffering
such uncommon hardships as ours has
done and bearing them with the same
patience and fortitude."
The historian Losing says:
"The patriot army which left White
marsh on the 11th of December
reached Valley Forge on the 10Th. Or
/ the 18th the whole army engaged If
religious services, according to :
recommendation of Congress that i
should be observed as day of public
thanksgiving and praise"
This latest gratuitous insult to the
heroes and patriots of the Revolution
ary War in order to bolster up weak
contemplate administration, will no
win votes and support. 1t will simply
convince the people of this countr,
that the administration is not Ameri
can in heart and has never been.

A LAST WORD TO VOTERS.

The campaign is over SO far as The
Tribune is concerned. We have said
all that we have to say. The issues
Of the campaign have been presented
from week to week. 1t is now up to
the voters to render their verdict. 1t
is not likely that any one has any
thing to offer that is important. We
warn our readers to pay no attention
to rumors that may be started the last
day or two before election. There has
been ample time in which to tell the
voters the whole story.
Charles Evans Hughes will be
elected president of the United
States. The next Congress will be Re-
publican. 1t behooves the people of
Idaho to give their delegation in Con-
gress all the help they can. Senator
Borah and Congressman Smith and
French will be in much better posi-
ton with the administration if they
have behind them the vote of the
people Of Idaho. Senator Borah in
particular has asked the people OF
Idaho to support and sustain him at
this time. A vote for Hughes is now
vote for Borah. Support for Borah
should not be withheld.
Unless the people of Idaho are d
wretched people who prefer peace at
any price, peace with dishonor if
necessary. to a firm maintenance of
the rights of the citizens of this coun-
try, they will cast their vote for
Hughes. A vote for Hughes simply
American rights should be upheld and
respected. 1t is vote such as we
have a right to expect from the Ameri-
can people. 1t is vote in harmony
with the traditions and ideals of the
country from Washington's time down
to the present administration There
is none so contemplate, let us hope,
as to endorse the abject surrender
President Wilson has made time and
again. The issue OF this campaign is
clear and distinct 1t is the firm
maintenance Of the rights of Ameri-
can citizens at home and abroad.
Minor issues have disappeared for
the time being. These issues will be-
come important after the great issue
has been upheld. 1t is satisfying to
know that Mr.. Hughes is in harmony
with the great majority of the people
of this country on the issues which
have been before the people of late
years. He is a Republican firm in the
principles of the party which has been
the majority party in this country for
over so years.

VOTE FOR HOLT.

Every citizen OF Canyon county
should vote for Mr.. b. Nj. Holt for
lieutenant governor. The office is
important to Canyon county. The in
terests OF this county will be safe
guarded by Mr. Holt il he is elected.
Mr.. Holt is one of the biggest and
broadest men in Idaho. He is lead
ing man of affairs. His interests are
identical with the best interests of
every good citizen. He is the biggest
man who has ever been nominated by
any political party for the office of
lieutenant governor in Idaho. If
elected he will give to the office and to
legislation the same ability that he
gives to his private business.
Mr.. Holt will be elected without fail.
There is no question about that His
friends would like to see him come out
Of Canyon county by big majority.
He should get 5000 majority in this
county. The taxpayers must remem-
Der that the coming session of the leg
islature is peculiarly important to Can
yon county. In Mr.. Holt we will have
man who will safeguard the inter
ests OF this and every other county in
Idaho He will be the lieutenant gov
ernor of the entire state
A vote for Mr.. Holt is an intelligent
vote for the interests of Canyon
County and the State of Idaho.

The Caldwell tribune., 1916-11-03

In the state the Republicans present
a ticket composed Of clean, able,
flawless men. If elected, and they will
be elected, they will give Idaho a
clean, honest, efficient administration.
The next administration will be free
from buncombe of all kinds. 1t will
handle the affairs in straightforward
manner with an eye single to the well
fare of the entire state.
Governor Alexander came before
the people of Idaho two years ago full
OF reckless promise. We cannot be-
lieve that the intelligent people of
Idaho took Alexander and his prom
ises at face value. There had been
startling disclosures in the office of
the state treasurer and the people of
Idaho vented their spite on the Re-
publican governor 1t was the defal-
cations of Allen that elected Alexan-
der governor. We believe that Idaho
is sorry for what she did and will
show her repentance by repudiating
Alexander at this election. Cover
nor Alexander has failed to make
good He has brought humiliation
and discredit upon the state by his
inefficiency, neglect of office and
ridiculous performances.
The entire Republican ticket is COM
posed of men who want to give Idaho
good state administration. They are
substantial men of affairs who are in
terested in good government and are
lending themselves to the solution OF
state affairs. There is not man on
the Republican state ticket who is not
a credit to the party. If those men
were your neighbors they would be
your friends. They are of the class tc
whom we all look for leadership and
guidance in the common affairs of life
as we'll as in politics.
The Republicans of Canyon County
have nominated a splendid ticket
These men, too, are capable men
They are honest men. They are sub
stantial men. They stand high in theil
Irrespective communities and command
respect wherever you meet them.
The county administration has beer
a failure. The county officers have
shown a constitutional ineptitude fol
administering public affairs. They are
unequal to the task. From the very
beginning their sole idea of public
office seems to have been to play
politics. They have played polite.
throughout but very poor game
The present condition of the county
funds, shown elsewhere in this ISSUE
of The Tribune, proves conclusively
that the present county officers are in
capable of administering county af
fairs.
The Republicans present men wht
are experienced and we'll fitted for thu
!, office to which they aspire. If elected
they will give public affairs intelligen
attention.
We admonish Republicans to vot,
their ticket straight. There is no ex
!, cuse for single, solitary scratch. W.
also admonish Republicans to pa.
absolutely no attention to stories cir

Auto Clash.

What might have ben serious ac-
cident was narrowly averted last Mon
day evening when two heavy cars, q
Chalmers and an E. M. F. locked
horns at the corner Of Albany and
Kimball. The first was driven by Mrs.
c. F. Smith, who had as passengers
Mr.. Vanhyning and baby and MISS
Ketrick. The second was manned by
Mr.. Mcintyre who was out tor an
initial experience as driver, and in try-
ing to avoid the approaching cal,
crashed into it. The two machines
will require several hundred dollars
worth of patchwork to make tnein %
good as new, but Mr.. Mcintyre counts counts
it good fortune that no bones were
broken in the ulix-up.
