POLITICAL GOSSIP

friends would have no argument to
offer for his reelection.
Every recently | sent a question
naire to each of the $500 members of
Republican state and county commit
tees throughout the nation to which
| had prompt response. 1t is the
consensus Of opinion that the record
of the Wilson administration insures
Republican victory this year. The
Presidents conduct of affairs of gov
eminent has been disappointment
even to me who supported him-and
he received two million less than a
majority Of the votes cast.
IAN expression of my own opinion
as to the course that will be pursued
by the general staff officers of any
other political party would be injudi-
cious obtrusion, but from every state,
save one, the Republican committee
men report that the breach of 1912
may be regarded as practically heal
ed. There is no silly sentiment that
victory will come no matter what our
party may do between now and No
vember.
1--WE know that there is a mans
sized fight before us. Our victories
OF last November did not come as
mama, but were achieved in the
sweat OF our brOWs. Wise action will
bring victory, and that kind OF action
will be carried on. There is a plethOr
of strong, Well-seasOned timber from
which to choose our candidate and a
wealth Of material from which TO
construct the platform.
president Wilson was quoted as
saying to the Democratic national
committee that the Republican party
would be compelled to confine it's dis
cussiOn this year to the tariff, but he
will find that a united and militant
opposition to Democracy will attack
that party at a dozen vulnerable
points.
"One point Of attack will be the vi
cious paternalistic and socialistic pro-
ject of a gOvernment-OWned and gov
eminent operated merchant marine.
The Republican party has always con-
tended for the upbnilding of the mer-
chant trade fleet, but has insisted
that aid shall be extended as an en-
couragement to private initiative and
enterprise, to the. end that American
ships may be in a financial position
to compete with the subsidized fleets
of other great nations. The leasing
project Which the president now pro-
poses shows a most perverse reluct-
ance to drop the subject and does
not satisfy the sitllation."

NOT A QUORUM.

NJ n QOOHOm.
Anent the purpOrted endorsement
of H. H. Perry for national commit
teeman for North Dakota at the pur-
ported meeting of the Trail county
central committee on January IA
Judge John Carmody of Hillsboro has
the following to say:
ION Jan. IA, 1916, at purported
meeting of the Trail county demo
cratic central committee, H. H. Perry
was endorsed for national committee
man. The facts, as understand
them, are, that the meeting is said to
have been called to recommend a
postmaster for the city of Hatton. AS
there was but one candidate for that
position and he had been recommend
ed by M. +. Hegge and endorsed by
Mr. Bruegger some time before, there
was no occasion for any meeting to
recommend postmaster for 'Hatton.
AS matter of fact, the so-caled
meeting recommended the same man,
who had been previously endorsed by
Mr. Bruegger.
"The democratic central committee
OF Trail county is composed of 20
members, some of them who are
known supporters of Mr.. Bruegger
| were not notified of the meeting.
There were but six present, when it
required II for quorum to transact
business. Mr.. Hellstrom was on hand
with his resolutions, endorsing Perry.
| The resolutions were adopted by a
vote Of four. Two OF the members,
who were present, We're and are sup
porters of Mr.. Bruegger. So the pur-
ported endorsement of the Trail
| county democrats was by four out OF
| the 20 members of the committee.
do not believe the members of the
committee present knew that it re.
strom, who is lawyer, ought to have
known"
A CHALLENGE.
The speech before the Hamilton
club, Chicago, of Charles d. Hilles,
chairman of the Republican national
committee, is considered by many as
a challenge TO President Wilson in
anticipation of the presidents swing
around the circle.
1t details a dozen particular points
of attack aside from the tariff upon
which Chairman Hilles said a win,
ming fight can be made by a united
Republican party.
Chairman Hilles was speaking at a
luncheon in honor of the national
committee officials and of the mem
bers of the subcommittee of the ma
tional committee which met in Chi
cago to make preliminary arrange
ments for the national convention on
June 7.

SAM LLOYD TAKES
ANOTHER BRIDE

Sam Lloyd, one Of Blackfoot's re-
spected and retired farmers, who has
been widower for many years, got
tired of living alone and concluded to
again take plunge into the sea of mat
rimony. Last Thursday he told his
friends that he was going to California,
but instead went to Butte where he
met Mrs. Louise Kestner, charming
widow whom he had loved for more
than year. From Butte the happy
couple returned to Pocatello where
Judge Knowles united two lonely hearts
into one of happiness and contentment.
They returned to Blackfoot Friday
morning, and Friday night about a
dozen of their friends, led by Chas.
Fisher, went in search of the sly Sam.
The newly weds were expecting a dis
turbance and hied to the home of the
brides sister-in-law, Mrs. Jas. Young,
where they were captured. After ex-
tending sincere congratulations to the
bride, Sam was forcibly but gently
dragged from the house and what his
friends did not do to him is better left
unsaid. The many friends Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Sam Lloyd wish them long and
happy life of matrimonial bliss and
prosperity.

Death of Ex-Saloonist and
Sheriff-Elect.

William Alexander West, of Ameri-
can Falls, better known as "Doc' West,
the pioneer saloonman and baseball
sport who was recently elected sheriff
of Power county on the Democratic
ticket, and who has been on the pneu-
monia route for the past several days,
passed in his chips last Sunday morning
at the Evans hotel. Although known
as saloonman and the bitterest oppo-
nent of local option in the state, "Doc -
West was also known as an honorable,
honest man, a good citizen and loyal,
fearless friend. He leaves mother,
wife and an adopted daughter and an
estate of about 100000.
About two years ago when the coun-
ty commissioners of Power county, then
Oneiday county, refused to issue any
more saloon licenses, Mr.. West peacea-
bly, and willingly complied with the
law and moved across the Snake river
within few hundred rods of his old
place Of business. Here he owned 100
acres which he made very profitable
by the sale Of wet goods, which for
years attracted trade from all over the
State until Blaine's dry vote forced
him out of business. "Doc' and all
his friends and neighbors were natural
ly damp creations and done everything
possible to defeat local option, even
going as far as starting the Power
City Times with Trux Talbot as editor.
Deceased and his friends We're also
bitter enemies Of Senator Brady and
when the editor of the times displayed
the photograph of their political enemy
ON the top of his printery, "Doc" be-
came enraged and pulled the scribe s
nose until he assembled ladder and
removed the Objectionable picture Of
the first governor who promised to close
every saloon in Idaho.
Though of quiet, retiring disposi-
tion, an unassuming, aggressive
nature, few people that knew him ever
attempted to interfere with 'Doc g"
rights, and we have neevr known him
to be either ungenerous or unjust in his
demands with the men of his associa-
tions.

HIS REMAINS
SHIPPED HOME

Mr. Keith, the aged father of Mrs.
Herman Stufflebeam, was overtaken
with fatal stroke of apoplexy about
O'Clock, last Monday morning. The
old gentleman, though suffering with a
cold for several days, was feeling quite
well when he arose at clock Monday
morning and was anxious to attend to
the furnace as was his custom, but Mr..
Stufflebeam refused to allow him to
do SO, and insisted that he remain in
bed. Soon after Mrs. Stufflebeam
heard strange noise in her fathers
room and notified her husband, who
accompanied her to the old gentleman 3
room, where they found him half dress
Ell and dead on the floor. Neighbors
were Immediately summoned and the
body was taken care Of. Apoplexy
was the cause of the old man 8 death
which overlook him at the age of SO
years. The body was shipped to White
Hall, N. Y, yesterday morning, and
was accompanied to the deceased g
birth and burial city by Mr.. and Mrs.
Herman Stufflebeam, who will make
an extended visit in their old home.
Besides Mrs. Stufflebeam, the deceased
| leaves married daughter in White
| Hall, where Mrs. Stufflebeam has an
aged uncle who is quite sick, and it is
feared that the shock Of Mr.. Keith s
death NAV prove fatal to him.

Though kind, and accommodating
back of the bar or on the street, he was
a man Of very few words and good
judgment, and what he said was gener-
ally considered about the right dope
by the boOzer, the gambler or the ball
tosser. among whom there are many
who will mourn his sad and sudden
death when he was about to enter the
career Of Il county sheriff for people
many of whom considered him a moral
and social Outlaw-as a saloonist 9th
erwise, those having dealings or ac-
quaintance with him will always rcmem-
Der him as a good citizen and friend
to everybody who sought his aid, wheth
er it be advice or something more sub
stantial, and the worst that can be said
about him is in regard to his occupa-
ton, which was conducted as lawfully
and morally as possible to make it prof
liable. No man will regret "Doc" :"
West 8 death more than Lorenzo Ev-
ans, who was elected State senator on
the same ticket with him. They were
life long pals and partners and equally
shared many Of the pleasures and vi
cissitudes of Power county when it was
known universally as the outlaw state.
Deceased was quite well known in
Blackfoot, where he was several times
present with tht American Falls base
ball team, which he practically main
tanned for years. Though so or more
years he was still an enthusiastic ball
tosser and generous contributor to the
sport.
