any other office. A large part
of these expenses were unneces-
sary and uncalled for and the
county reaped no benefit from
them.
The difficulty which Sheriff
Leaf had with the commissioners
over alleged excessive charges for
board of prisoners is a matter of
history. The facts in the case
were given in a news article in
The Record at the time and need
not be repeated here. In any of
these matters The Record does not
charge that Mr.. Leaf was guilty
of anything criminal or that he
personally obtained any money
from the county which could be
recovered by suit but it does
charge that he not only has been
extravagant in the matter of ex-
penses and that by his represen-
tations to the commissioner he
secured the passing of a resolu-
ton by which he collected from
the county 25 cents per meal for
three meals a day for each pris-
oner while he paid only 20 cents
per meal and in some cases fur
nished the prisoners only two
meals a day instead of three when
the commissioners thought that
they we're only paying for the ac-
tual cost Of the prisoners board.
When we first published these
facts friends of Mr.. Leaf came
to US and said that we were max
ing a mistake by publishing these
things about Mr.. Leaf; that we
we're hurting the Democratic
party by doing it. We denied
the inference. Mr.. Leaf is not
the Democratic party and what
hurts him individually does not
necessarily hurt the Democratic
party. It only hurts the party
| if the party cOndOnes and defends
his offense. If the members OF
the party stand supinely by and
permit him to be nominated foI
the Office again without making
= protest they condone and rati-
fly his acts and they become the
acts Of the party and only in thai
case could an exposure of Mr.
Leaf iniure the party.
Under these circumstance it j..
} an insult TO the party and e
, every honest member Of it for Mr.
Leaf to ask the party to endorse
r his record and ratify and approve
5 of his petty system Of overcharg-
{ ing the county by nominating hin
T as its candidate for sheriff.
The record. [volume] (St. Maries, Idaho) 1913-1918, 1916-07-25

manding honesty, economy and
efficiency in public officials and
especially pledging the candidates
if successful, to an economical
administration to the end that
taxes might be reduced.
Governor Alexander, in making
his appointments, laid great
stress upon this pledge of econ
omy and insisted that it should
be carried out and his appointees,
by accepting the appointments,
bound themelves in honor to car
ny out those pledges, as much so
as though they were elected di-
rectly by the people on that plat
form.
The records of the county show
that almost with this single ex-
Iception, his appointees in this
county have done their utmost to
carry out and redeem those
pledges by an efficient and eco
nomical administration of the af-
fairs of their Offices. Sheriff
Leaf has been a notable excep-
ton. From the time he took
the oath of Office it has seemed
to be the height of his ambition
to put the county to all possible
expense and to get what money
he could out Of it.
On the plea that the work Of
the sheriff was extra hazardous
he succeeded in getting his SAL
airy fixed at a higher figure than
that of any other officer. He al
so succeeded in getting the board
to allow him a deputy and a jaiior.
Every one cOnversant with the
affairs of the county knows that
there is about as much need of
the three men in the sheriff's Of
flee as there would be for a fifth
wheel on a wagon.
AS to the hazardous nature OF
the work 1t Is a matter OF COM

An Insult
To Democrats

C. w. Leaf has announced his
candidacy for sheriff at the COM
ing election. The announce
ment was made in the face of the
fact that large number of the
leading men in his party were of
the opinion that his being a can
didate would be detrimental to
the interests of the party and had
requested him not to become
candidate.
Their request had no influence
upon him. Backed by coterie
of Republicans, who are trying to
dictate the nominations in both
parties, he ignored the opinions
Of those Democrats, anxious for
the success Of their party, and
entered the contest depending up
on the fact that Democrats as
rule do not turn out to the pri-
maries and relying upon RepuD-
licans to elect him in the gener-
al election.
We do not believe that he will
receive the support of any great
number of Republicans, only that
element of the party so charae-
REALISTICALLY represented by Ex-
State Treasurer Allen, Deputy
Treasurer Coleman, Auditor Hus-
ton and Smith and Acton in Koo-
tenai county, men who were in
politics for what they could get
out of it and who are naturally
more plentiful in a party who had
a long, uninterrupted reign, be-
cause. being in power affords
many opportunities for dishonest
pennies. He belongs to the class
which is in politics for what can
be gotten out of it and natural
" will receive the support OF
that class.
Mr.. Leaf is no Democrat. lie
has not the first instinct Of a
Democrat and does not repre-
sent any of the principles of thai
party. The great body of the
Democratic party of this county
is too clean and too honest TO give
its support to a man of Leafs
principles, reputation and oflicia

ty, was made upon a platform de

As we sweep the dust away, SO may
our husbands rout the enemy II
this was arbitrarily invented, 1t was
by analogy with mimetic magic.
These women set an example Of what
should happen, and then confirmed it
with a spell.

AN image may be substituted for

But without repudiating that view as

must point out that presence is not

The belief required by analogy is that
