HIS TRIP

many of those young men are sons of
politicians" The deep silence that
followed plainly indicated that none
of those II Rigby young men is a son
of politician.
The governor reiterated his state
ment that such prosperity as we now
have in this nation was never be-
fore seen" He drew attention to the
great prosperity that the sugar beet
growers and the sugar beet manufac-
turers are enjoying,
THE only articles in which the peo-
pie of Idaho were interested in the
tariff discussion of four years ago are
sugar and WOOL" said the governor.
Sugar and wool never were so high
since the civil war as they are now.
Do they need protection 2" he asked.
The governor dwelt at some length
on the federal reserve act, the child
labor bill, the eight hour law, the rural
| credits bill. the tariff.
Have you heard the Republican poll
ticians speak of the rural credits bill?''
he asked. Have you heard the boss
of jefferson county say anything about
the rural credits law"
The governor answered his ques-
lions and declared: These politicians
do not dare to say anything about the
rural credits law, because it is the
most beneficial measure ever devised
for the farmers good" 1t is a Demo
cratic measure, he said. The governor
explained in much detail the operation
of this law. He reiterated that the
young man should buy land now, be-
cause land is sure to advance in value

INVITATIONS TO
BORAH MEETING
All County Chairmen in the
State Are Urged to Be
Present.

Sc. Blaine, chairman Of the Repub-
lican county central committee in
charge of arrangements for the Borah
meeting here Wednesday night has in
vited the chairmen of other county CEN
trail committees to come to Boise and
attend the rally. His letter to the
county chairmen is as follows;
EVERY chairman of the Republican
county central committees is DESTROYS
of electing his entire ticket with a
large majority vote this fall and OF
course is using every legitimate means
to give the national and state ticket a
large majority in his county.
I'm order to accomplish such results
1t is necessary for every Republican
in the state to enlist his services and
1t is further necessary that there shall
be cooperation in organization.
while the Republican party has
heretofore been divided within itself
there is no reason or excuse for any
Republican to scratch his ticket at the
coming election. Never before has the
Republican party put forth, not only
I'm the nation, but in the state, strong,
courageous and fearless nominees.
In the nomination OF Justice Hughes
Idaho took a very prominent part, and
we are very fortunate in securing Sen
ator Borah who is a national figure to
discuss the issue of this campaign.
The national committee has arranged
to have him speak at Pocatello on the
night of Oct. 10, and at Boise on the
night o. Oct. II. These two speeches
will undoubtedly be the Keynote
speeches for Idaho, and the Ada county
Republican committee feels that not
only the citizens of this county are en-
titled to hear Senator Borah but that
all Idaho would like to hear him. We,
therefore, are extending to your COM
mittee and your candidate and the citi-
zens of your county a most cordial in
vitation to be present at our meeting
in Boise on oct. IL.
1--WE will be glad to know if you can
be present, and while you are in the
city we wish you to make yourself at
home at our headquarters"

ernor turned to the grown people and
said "These boys and girls are the
most valuable asset in the state. We
should see to 1t that their lives are
consecrated to high purpose"
The governor predicted that "parti-
sanship will be a thing Of the past, in
the near future. and in this lies this
hope of our nation"
In referring to the awful tragedy OF
the European war. the governor COM
pared the f-stricken conditions ex-
listing there with the glories of peace
this nation Is enjoying. Nothing
personifies the words uttered zoos
years ago-'peace on earth, good will
toward men'-more than do the Stars
and Stripes in our flag" he said.
What Mexico needs more than all
else is school teachers and school chill
dren to attend the schools that should
be built. II had the power l would
send 10000 school teachers to Mexico
tomorrow The mission OF the United
States is peace, not war.
1.-THE men who advocate war would
not go to war themselves. The man
who represents the prince OF peace in
the flesh is Woodrow Wilson. (Cheers.)
BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION.
1.-THE president of the United States
has been serving tho people of this ma
ton as he would a great business en-
terprise for the past three years." said
the governor, land among other things
he did was to have congress pass a
good roads bill whereby this state this
year will receive as its share $4,000 of
, this good roads fund. Next year this
} state will receive s15oOo0 the next
year more, etc, for number of
lyears."
The governor evoked a storm of ap-
plause when he said: Your road here
: is In bad condition. What you people
need and should have is a portion Of
the states share of this national good
: roads fund, so that you can build q
! good, permanent highway in this sec
! ton.
"Our national government discarded
politics three years ago and devoted Its
energies toward emancipating the bus
mess, financial and agricultural inter-
! ests of this nation"
: A eulogy was given the president for
, the passage of the child labor law.
This bill is an important move for
the uplift of humanity" said the gov
ernor.
.DIscARDs PARTIsANsHtP.
IF you raised good crops for the
, next six years, and you could keep all
the politicians away for that length OF
time, you would have more prosper
GUS conditions. You should not be so
hidebound in your political views. You
should vote for your own interests, not
for the interests of any political party.
1.-TWO years ago I was elected on the
paramount issue of lower taxes
succeeded in lowering the taxes of this
state 33 Ia per cent. 1t was no, easy
matter for me to reduce the taxes of
: this state" The governor went into
some detail telling his audience the
. great fight he had with the legisla-
,, ture to effect the saving he made for
: the taxpayers of over 100000.
