BORAn TO SPEAK
HERE ON OCT. II.
Rousing Reception to Be
rendered Senator on
His Arrival.

The return to his home state Of
United States Senator William e.
Borah Wednesday evening. Oct. IL. will
be the occasion for extending to him a
rousing reception on the part of his
constituents. Senator Borah will de-
liver an address at the Pinney theater
that evening. He is following out an
itinerary for the Republican national
committee in the west and while the
date of his Homecoming is included on
that itinerary, he does not expect to
remain here very long but will leave
later to cover many of the western
states. His address here will be given
under the auspices OF the Ada county
central committee of which S. e.
Blaine is chairman.
a general committee to be made up
of those wishing to take part will go
to Nampa to meet Senator Borah and
escort him to Boise. On his arrival
here he will be received by another
committee and both committees will
escort him to the Owyhee hotel. An
automobile parade may be formed to
escort Senator Borah from the hotel to
the theater. This procedure is u trifle
out OF the. ordinary as Senator Borah
usually desires that no demonstration
be made. when he arrives home. AS
he is to make a political address, how
ever, there is to be a departure from
the customary welcome.
The program at the Pinney theater
will be so arranged as to give prac-
tically all of the time to Idaho's senior
senator in which to make his address.
Senator Borah will make the only adj
dress of the evening. There will be
one musical number. Many people
from surrounding cities and towns are
planning to attend. State and county
candidates, and others will occupy the
platform.

ward and manly stand upon all of the
great issues Of the day have inspired IN
me a great admiration for the man and
a keen desire for his election. / can
now see clearly what | could not see
earlier that is, that whatever the ele-
ments We're that brought about the
nomination of Governor Hughes at Chi
cago, these elements have no control
over his actions or policies If the
bosses made their last stand in his
nomination they thereby defeated them
selves because his whole policy, since
he became a candidate, has been TO
extend the utmost recognition to the
Progressives and his announced deter
mination is to liberalize the Republican
party and make it the party of radical
thought and action in America.
Ten days ago the national committee
sent their special agent to Idaho to see
me and the message which Mr. Corrick
brought was this: The national cam
paign committee desire the co-opera-
ito nof the Progressives of Idaho in
this fight We believe that our can
didate merits the support of every
Progressive and it is the announced de-
termination of the president to recog-
nize the Progressives in everything and
to fight heart and soul for the enact
ment of Progressive legislation.
I'm addition to this message from Mr.
Corrick, l received from our old nation
al leaders many communications
strongly urging me to actively partici-
pate in the campaign. 1t was pointed
out to me that only by so doing could
be in a position 20 protect the political
fortunes Of the men who went out in
1912 and fought the fight"

Poor Aunt Kitty.

The Gazette extends its heartfelt
sympathy to the Topeka reporter who
received a tongue lashing from a lady
bootlegger when he spelled her name
Mabel instead of Maybelle. Emporia
has few girls who have the Maybelle
bug, but she does have Catharine.
Cathrine, Catherine, Katherine, Kath-
arine, Kathryn, Kathryne, KATRINA
and Katrina in the society and polre
columns occasionally, and at rarer in
tervals Edythe, Annette, Alyce, Cla-
rice, Helena, Helyne, Jeanette, Lucia
and Susanna. Naming a girl baby
these parlous times is a diseouraging
proposition. The name generally
sticks until she begins to put up her
hair, and then she spells it to suit
herself An investigation probably
would show Aunt Kitty has kicked her
coffin to pieces over the liberties taken
with her name by her namesakes.-

DUBOIS TO SIZE
Up THE POLITICAL
SITUATION HERE
Former Idaho Senator Is
Engaged in Making Sur
vey of the Western States
for Democrats.

Former United States Senator Fred
r. Dubois, assigned to western head
quarters of the Democratic national
committee at Chicago, will be in Boise
soon to confer with Democratic leaders
on the Idaho situation. He is making
a survey of states west of the Mis-
souri, river on behalf of the national
organization, having been assigned this
important task because he is recog
nized as one of the best posted men in
politics in the west.
While in Salt Lake the other day
Mr.. Dubois gave out the following in
terview:
at is a pretty and exciting fight.
Had the Democrats carried Maine the
Republicans would have been demon
allied. The Republicans however, car
ried Maine by such an insignificant and
inconsequential majority that both
sides claimed a victory and each re-
doubled its activities.
president Wilson has many advant-
ages. There is universal prosperity.
1t is not the custom for the people to
change administrations when every
body is prospecting. Everything that
the people have to sell is bringing the
highest price ever known. and. while
prices are high, the people have the
money with which to buy.
WOMEN ARE GRATEFUL.
The womens vote in Illinois and
the Rocky mountain and Pacific coast
states viii be an important and pos
sibly the determining factor in this
campaign. The women are strongly
inclined toward President Wilson be-
cause he has kept us out of war. They
gratefully accept this fact and are not
interested in the arguments of the Re
publicans criticising the methods no
used in keeping us at peace. These
arguments have a tendency to pro 5e
that if Governor Hughes is elected
president he will use altogether differ
cnt methods with England, Germany,
Mexico and other warning nations.
Naturally. the woman voter believes
the result of the change will be war
with some foreign nation
The women heartily approve of the
child labor law The voters generally
IN all this western country approve
of the rural credits law, the appropria-
tion of $50 GOO, 000 for good roads, which
mean so much to the farmers and the
future development of the country. The
people of the entire country are pleased
with the averted railroad strike through
the enactment of the Adamson eight
hour law. They approve of the con-.
structive legislation Of the Democratic
congress under the Wilson admins
tration and should vote their ap-
proval. believe they will
There is one significant fact which
all will admit. Every one of us meets
Republicans every day who intend to
vote for President Wilson. No one
meets 8 Democrat any day or any
where who intends to vote for Cover
nor Hughes. You find this condition
in every section of the United States.
Unless the American people have
changed their methods of reasoning.
President Wilson will be elected to ad-
minister the government for another
four wears"

THE SEASONS BEST JOKE

''The seasons best joke is that it
takes an 8O-page booklet to instruct the
voters of Arizona how to mark their
ballots in the coming election. Publica-
ton of 100000 of the booklets will cost
the taxpayers Of the state $1100. Mail
ing them will cost $4,000 for stamps and
$1,000 for envelopes and clerk hire, "
says the Ell Paso Herald.
''The voters will glance at the book
lets and throw them away, and when
election day comes, wade through the
four foot ballot of candidates and in
itiated measures as best they may.
"'That is, the average voters will do
so. He will mark cross here and there
and hope for the best.
"The ignorant voter will have far
simpler time Of it. He will merely take
into the voting booth sample ballot;
carefully marked for him by some poll
tician who knows his business. He will
then lay the sample beside his own bal
lot and, where he sees a cross on the
sample, he will mark corresponding
cross on his own. That has been fire.
quently seen about Arizona polls since
statehood brought a lot of so-called
popular" legislation into being.
"The joke Of the thing comes, though,
when the aforesaid ignorant voter fails
to get his sample and real ballots
matched up properly and consequently
votes exactly contrary to his instruc-
tiOns.

GASOLINE AND WHISKEY

There are few people who do not ad-
init in these days that the automobile,
properly employed and rightly used, is
not only more or less Of blessing to
mankind but also a factor in modern
civilization that cannot safely be dis
pensed with. When the automobile is
misused, as it oftentimes is, it not only
becomes a curse but menace to civ
ilization. The misuse is brought about
in greater degree, probably, than
through any other agency by the in
effectual effort on the part of many peo-
pie to mix gasoline and whiskey. For
a good many years there has been an
effort to mix quick tempers and pistols
in the south. 1t has been quite as futile
as the desire to mix gasoline and whis-
key in the north.
A judge in the city of Detroit, the
center of the automobile industry. of
the world, recently voiced the senti-
ment of most people when he sent a
driver to the penitentiary for several
years for fatally injuring pedestrian
by declaring, "This will be lesson to
lot of other fools who think they can
safely mix gasoline and whiskey."
Many people will doubtless think this
judge went little out Of his way to
make this announcement but it sounds
a good deal like common sense, and he
appears to know his business. If one
might expect leniency for reckless driv-
ing it would be in Detroit, where there
are probably more automobiles than in
any city of it's size in the country, but
it appears that recklessness caused by
whiskey will not be tolerated even in
that automobile center.
There is no reason to believe that
all the fools of this kind live in De-
troit, or in any other city. Drivers
who take such chance with whiskey
and gasoline transform thing Of pleas
ure and almost necessity into a fiery
juggernaut of death for somebody, and
menace is instantly created. The agile
and the young may possibly get out of
the path Of these reckless drivers, but
the old and the feeble have to take the
consequences. Befuddled heads man
aging steering wheels have never
worked properly yet and they probably
never will. Those who are blind to the
rights of sober pedestrians constitute
a public nuisance, and we are thank
full that their number is no greater.

OUR GRAND CANYON

The other day we heard of man,
VINO, in planning his vacation trip
through northern Arizona allowed one
day for the trip from Flagstaff to the
Grand Canyon and return. Asked why
he thus sighted the greatest scenic
wonder Of the continent, he explained
that all that was necessary was to
glance at it and come back, you could
see it all in one look. A stay of more
than an hour or two on the brink of
the 'Titan of Chasms" was to him a
waste of time.
Arizonians generally are not as ap-
preciative as they should be of the cam
yon. Hundreds of natives of this state
have never seen it's greatest wonder,
while thousands of residents of Ari-
zona fit every summer with unceasing
regularity to the resorts Of southern
California without a thought of the un-
speakable natural wonder within their
own state.
But ga prophet is not without honor,
save in his own country" From coast
to coast tourists galore sing the praises
Of the canyon and induce friends to
make the trip to it's rim. Southern
California, that most-advertised section
of the entire globe, knows it's value, and
includes the Grand Canyon in the list of
it's own attractions. Like the woman
who borrows paint and powder to make
herself beautiful, California has sought
to appropriate the canyon as one of her
scenic wonders.
To one who has really seen the can
yon, IN all Of it's wordless, matchless
grandeur, it seems that Arizona as a
whole pays too little attention to this
marvel Of the world. There are two
great cataracts, Niagara and Victoria
Falls; there are peaks in the Canadian
rockies as majestic as the Matterhorn;
and there will yet remain several hun
dred cathedrals in Europe after the
armies and the big guns get through
with it. Southern California is at best
a reproduction of the Riviera, with a
touch of Egypt.
But there is only one such super
symphony in color in all this world as
the Grand Canyon of Arizona. To
those who have drunk of the sweeping
mystery of it's vast depths and wor-
