SPEECH BY ExaGov, HAWLEY.
Ex-Governor James H. Hawley was
the speaker at the fair grounds to-
day. He said In part:
MIR. Chairman and Fellow Citizens:
Ordinarily it would be unexcusable to
impose a speech upon an assemblage
gathered upon an occasion like this:
but in this the most serious contin-
gency that has ever confronted the
American people, it is well perhaps to
briefly discuss the issues confronting
our citizens and the duties imposed
upon each of us. Not only is 1t cru
cial time in our own history. but In
the history Of the world as well. The
questions OF government which
have confronted the patriots OF all the
ages are now submitted to the final
arbitration of the nations; and the
bloodiest war recorded in all history Is
now being fought and upon its issue
depends the political future Of man
kind. Upon the success Of the United
States and her allies the future Of de-
mocracy depends. And we are exer-
cising every effort to insure the per-
petuation of the government be-
queathed us by our fathers.
And in this struggle Idaho is doing
it's full duty. Fully five thousand Of
our young men are already enlisted
in this great contest for worldwide
human liberty. We have fully real
lied the need of money to carry on
the mighty contest and purchased far
more than our part of the liberty bonds
issued by the government, and our
Red Cross subscriptions amounted to
nearly half a million, although only
one half OF that amount was expected
from us. Sacrifices have been made
by all Of use and sacrifices must con-
tinue to be made until tho end. Not
only have we already given Of our
means. but we must be ready to make
any needed sacrifice the interests Of
the country may demand. Not only
have we seen thousands of the bravest
and the best of our young men march
ing to the scene of conflict, but we
must be ready to devote the lives of
every man in every community OF the
state to UNFOLDING our righteous cause
If 1t becomes necessary so to do.
IDAHO WILL NOT FALTER.
THE patriotic citizens OF Idaho will
not falter In the full discharge of all
a.
may be the burdens imposed.
I'VE in Idaho hardly realize as yet
that we are actively participating in
the mightiest conflict of all the ages;
nor will we do so fully until the bull
letins from the European battlefields
give lists of our dead and wounded.
But In the meantime. we must fully
prepare for the inevitable and thor
oughly understand our duties.
And chief among our duties Is to
thoroughly appreciate the sacrifices
demanded of'us. Not only do we give
our best loved ones for service on the
front; not only do we give most freely
of our means to insure the necessary
money for war purposes, but we must
sacrifice our personal comfort and
practice self denial In every necessary
way. We should hesitate at no per-
sonal sacrifice seemingly demanded OF
us.
we must give whole hearted sup
port to those in charge OF the nations
affairs Irrespective OF our personal
opinions as the necessity OF their ac-
tions.
SACRIFICE AT HOME.
I'VE must remember that upon our
sacrifice may depend the result OF the
war and that it may become equally
as necessary for those Of US at home
to undergo personal hardships and In
conveniences as 1t Is for those at the
front to take personal risks; ana SO II
will become necessary for each Of us
to faithfully observe every suggestion
in economizing in those things which
will not only be needed while our
troops are In the field. but It will be
absolutely necessary to sustain our al
lies as well.
I'VE must remember at all times that
we are at war and that our personal
liberty Is to a certain degree affected
by the war. While the principles Of
free utterance is absolutely American,
still 1t cannot be permitted in times Of
stress like this when 1t gives aid and
comfort to the enemy. 1t is an essen
tial of free democracy that every citi-
zen has the fullest right to discuss
great public questions, but we cannot,
as Senator Root has well said, have
at the same time both free democracy
and war
