To Labor:

You have built the Nation: for i, VIC honor
you today!
But
Your responsibility is as grca, as your
achievement
Unless you realize that responsibility you may
bring down with crash the structure you have
buided.
The agtator who exploits labor for his own
gain robs the toer and victmlzes the public
his tyranny thrives at the expense OF tho
honest workman. organized or unorganizcd
who scorns the methods of the highwayman.
The selfish labor union that wakes over-fat
while fellow laborcrs grow lean is curse to all
labor-a creator OF class warfare blot to
true Americanism.
Union labor agitators intimidate individual
members and force them to support highland
ed deeds OF violence.
Labor agitators, almost at the point of gun
hold up employers OF labor and take from them
money that should go to all workers.
Look at Detrot--look at Los Aneeles-cites
whose growth has amazed the world; cities
built by open shop" labor, where every man
has equal chance to earn his own and his fam
ily's daily bread
It is well known fact that within those
prosperous cities higher average wage is paid
to labor than in any city dominated by AFRO
CANT labor leaders
You can do more than all other powers with.
in city and state to make Seattle and Wash
ington great.
Show your loyalty to Seattle and the state by
casting your vote for the man who stands for
industrial freedom
Consecrate Labor Day to truth to your fell
low man. to patriotism to the best interests OF
Labor.
ITO thine self be true,
And it must follow the night the day
Tho canst not then be false to any man."

All gang rule and all political
machine politics is primarily based on
the privilege Of distributing patron
age. This Is true in Idaho today
PATRONAGE, the distribution of
patronage, enjoyed by National Com
mitteeman Elder of Kootenai county,
is the power that gives the Pence
Nugent Elder machine, today in con-
troll of Idaho democracy, minority
ruling a majority agair st its will, all
it. power. Strip the Pence Nugent-
Elder machine of this power to dis
tribute democratic patronage in Idaho
and give this power to the rank and
file; give the people of Idaho, the
democratic masses, the right to rule
and the distribution of patronage ard
the machine, the gang, would be
forthwith stripped of its power.
The machine, without federal pat
ronage, could not hold its organiza.
ton together for one week.
And where does this pernicious
patronage machine, this gang that
snaps its fingers in the faces of the
democratic masses and ignores popular
will; this handful of ring democrats
that make sport of popular government,
that make mockery of the Democra-
tic national platform pledges, where,
we repeat, does it get its power and
its authority to dispense federal pat
ronage in Idaho?
There is but one answer: From
Woodrow Wilson and the national
democratic administration. Let the
natioral democracy declare in fact,
not in theory, for government of, by
and for the democratic masses, and
back that declaration up with the
withdrawal of federal patronage from
the Nugent- Pence Elder machine in
Idaho and every other state, and the
machine now strangling free govern
ment, sneering at popular, represen-
tative government, will die overnight.
As American citizens let no man
be deceived.
Let democrats go back Of the fruit
and find the tree that produces this
crop of degenerate democracy. Let
us get at the root of the evil and
strike that Who can blame Elder
and the Idaho machine for using fed
eral patronage to their own politica
advancements if the national dem
ocratic administration builds tn,
machine and gives Elder Nugent
Pence the exclusive right to operate
it?

The cigarette u-iuess is the real
white slave traffic of this country.
When railroad companies and other
big commercial concerns, after care
full study and inve stigation, say that
cigar tie smoking tends to destroy
the eff iency of boys and men, it is
pretty conclusive proof that the
cigarette is bad thing for boys.
And in view of the facts in the case
it is not out OF the way to call the
cigarette the real white slave traffic
of this nation. The Saturday Even
ing Post, the Ladies Home Journal
and the Country Gentleman, pub
I lished By the Curtis Publishing Com
pany, has decided to discontinue all
cigarette advertising after the present
contracts expire. These publications
have always been reluctant to carry
cigarette ads, but now have decided
TO stop them. 1t is in harmony with
a nationwide sentiment against COM
promising with things that democrat
ize. In other words our biggest and
best publications are not advocating
one thing editorially and pursuing
another policy in the business office

REAL BASIS OF PROSPERITY

The following is from the Topeka,
Kansas, X Ray Democrat A New
York financial publication calculate
that last year, whereas our foreign
trade amounted to So, $50, 900, 600, the
domestic commerce of the United
States was over $500, 600, 600, geo
That is, in the year of the greatest
foreign commerce we have ever
known, that commerce was only one
per cent of the domestic business.
1t is well for Americans to keep
these conditions in mind. After al d,
this country is the greatest market
for this country's products and in.
dustry. The most important effect
that can be made for promotion of in
dustry and enterprise is to insure that
our own products have the best
chance in their home market, our own
labor being employed at remunerative
wages.
Foreign trade is hiely important tc
us, but domestic traffic is immeasure-
ably more SO. The fact cannot be
too earnestly impressed. That policy

THE ELEPHANT.


Pocatello Tribune The return of
presidential campaign has melted
much curiosity as to the origin of
the elephant as the emblem of the Re-
publican party, an origin which has
been forgotten by thep resent gener-
alton. The elephant was first used
to signify the Republican party by
Thomas Mast, the famous cartoonist,
in November, 1874. In cartoon
labeled ANA SIS, having put on the
lions skin, roamed about in the for
est and amused himself by frighten-
ing all the foolish animals he met
with in his wanderings. The
"ass' referred to was New York
newspaper, while the democracy was
represented as fox, lurking in the
underbrush and contemplating, with
apparent pleasure, the foreshadowing
plunge of the elephant into an abyss
entitled Southern Claims Chaos. -
Various other newspapers We're rep
resented by amin ais, all, with the
exception of the fox, in apparent
panic. Mast is dead and gone, but
his elephant so appealed to the popu.
lar imaeinat on that it will probably
endure as long as the Republican
party as its popular, if not officia
/ emblem.
