DEMOCRATS FACING A SERIOUS

Number Of Democratic Postmasters ID Idaho
Are Likely to Lose Their Offices as the
Result Of Their Activity In Politics

Turning reacticnary and stabbing the
: direct primary. which heretofore 1t had
championed, the Pence Nugent- Elder
faction &C the Democratic party in con-
troll Of the recent meeting Of the state
central committee. is facing a lot of
explaining to constituents which be-
comes rather difficult, it is said. when
the flat admission was made by John
r. Nugent before the committee that
the reason he stood against a prefer
entail primary VS. because ii would
mean the election of Senator jerome

important to him. AMI the defeat of the
present committeeman, Robert III. FL
der. There are a lot Oh pecvcd Demo-
Gratis in Idaho, if the reports heard in
Democratic circles last night can be
relied upon. Criticism is rampant par
ticularly of Elder. who was pledged to
y primary, yet stood before the state
committee silent, while his hackers
were knitting it. In fact. the report is
current that Committeeman Elder
rather relished the performance and
appeared to be very much amused at
the progress of the steam roller.
1t was pointed out last night that by
the claim that he could do nothing to
prevent the reputation of the primary.
after 1t was given out he had Endorsed
1t, for he made no effort during the
meeting to pie d its cause.
May File Charges.
Because Of the number of postmas-
ters in attendance at the meeting of
the Democratic state committee on
Monday and the active part taken BY a
number of others in their respective
counties in the interes. Of Elder and
Nugent, who secured their appoint
ments, ii IS rumcred that charges will
be filed with the civil service commits
sion and an investigation BE- demanded.
II Is charged that there will be but little
difficulty in having them all removed
as both the postoftice department and
the civil service commission have
passed upon similar cases in the past.

bound over ON THE
CHARGE OF FORGERY

David Corak, foreigner. was bound
over to the district court yesterday
afternoon upon the charge of forgery
by Judge Willard White, who fixed his
bond at $500, which he was unab to
furnish. Corak Is believed to be one
of the gang OF foreigners who swim
died Boise merchants on Christmas
eve 1914 by passing a lot Of initiated
checks Of the Inter- Mountain Railway
company. the aggregate amount being
about $4,000. corak'f name was in
dorsed on one Of the checks and while
he was not identified as one OF the mon
who passed any of the forged checks,
1t is alleged that some weeks prior TO
the time the bogus checks were passed
he received a check from the company
i, which he did not cash until after the
bogus checks were given, and which
was shown to be identical with the
bogus checks. number OF which was
submitted and compared with the gen.

Tenn, who after his appointment xs
postmaster, continued t. serve az
chairman of the county committee OF
his party. in violation of the policy OF
the postoffice department to prohibit
the holding of office upon political
committees by postmasters and other
classified officers, however, his chair
manship was but nominal in character
and unaccompanied by active leader
ship. The commission recommended
his removal which was ordered by the
postoffice department.
In the case of C. NJ. Hughes of Whar-
ton. Texas, a second class office. the
postmaster was removed for taking too
active part in the interest of the
state chairman of his party against u
faction that was opposing the state
chairman, condition somewhat similar
to that in this state at this time.
In the case of H. L. Spencer, post
master at Spencer. y. Y. third class
office, he was removed for political
activity in trying to induce candidates
for nomination to withdraw and when
they refused had used all his influence
to defeat them.
In view OF these decisions II would
appear that there will be several post
masters to be appointed within a short
time.
Fight just Started.
While the northern contingent Of
Democrats, who left last night for their
respective homes, had no definite
plans outlined, 1t was quite evident
from their remarks that the fight for
national committeeman, instead of be-
ing over, has just commenced. 1t is
not at all probable. however. that an
attempt will be made to put the pref
erential primary into effect. elect del
egates from the various counties and
hold separate convention. Instead, 1t
is more than probable that the Day
hackers will go into every county in
the state to prevent the Manipulating of
delegates by the Pence Nugent- Elder
forces. and secure party primary dec
larations from the county organiza-
tons.
