attention child ever got from him

Marian said she so wanted me to

discomfort.
Here's a little man that Is going
to take the knocks of the world and
never stay floored for long" said the
host returning with the boy in his
arms. "He never makes much fuss
over bumps" He patted the plump lit

cry babies.
When Mrs. Thornton came in to
announce dinner she inquired about
the accident.
II heard the scream, but l knew
that IL you could have Daddy every
thing would be all right" Her eyes
rested lovingly on her husband.
When the lecture was over and he
had been shown to his room, Morris
was unable to sleep. The wind had
blown the rain clouds away and a
glorious moonlight flooded his room.
What was 1t, he wondered, that made
the atmosphere OF this simple country
home so restful, so different from any
other place where he had been enter

casual glances of this couple were
full of complete understanding, he re-

WILL THE CROOKS COMMIT
MURDER?

The cowardly attack on G. o. Broxon
made by Secretary of State Barker and
his hired man Shook yesterday, with
brass knuckles and probably guns,
shows conclusively that these fellows
will commit MURDER if necessary to
prevent an honest and thorough inves-
tigation of their offices.
Will the decent, honest and law -abid-
ing people of the state of Idaho endorse
MURDER?
Will they vote to retain these
THUGS in office?
We don't think they will.
The Supreme Court of Idaho SENT
us TO JAIL for criticising their parti-
san decisions, and now the crooks of the
state house would MURDER us if that
would prevent an exposure of the rot
tenness of their offices.
