Confession Of Horace Mann
This Dsoyas Was Sent to Idaho by LIE Seuer and Worked
Under the Direction of Mckaig

You have all read the confession of
Horace Mann. He admitted under oath
that he had been sent to Idaho by Ar
thur LeSeuer, secretary of the Nonpar-
tisan league, to work among the farm
ers for the league; that he had been
working under the direction of Ray
McKaig, the field. secretary for the
league in Idaho. He confessed that he
was Socialist and sympathize1t
with the l. w. W.; that he had made
statements in defense of the acts of
Haywood; that he declared the draft
law unconstitutional and that he was
against the war; that he had told al
number of people that the Bolsheviki
government was the highest type of

sent him back to continue TO peddle
prO-German propaganda, and when he
was arrested McKaig took steps to de-
fend him.
But the evidence was overwhelming
and Mann confessed everything.
Many discriminating letters were
found on Mann and were taken over
by the secretary of the Gooding county
council of defense. Later the secre-
tary's office was burglarized and air
the Mann letters that were there then
were stolen. The more important
ones had been placed in a bank vault

democracy that the world had yet pro-
duced. He also admitted the author
ship of Socialist book containing
rabid statements.
When Mann was arrested letters and
documents were found on him con-
firming his confession. Among them
were letters from Ray McKaig prais-
ing Mann's good work"-his damn
able Socialism, 1. w. W.-ism, pro-
Germanism.
Before mann confessed, affidaYits OF
reputable citizens were published In
Boise and all over 1.-The state reciting
the disloyal statements he had made.
McKaig was fully advised of these affi-
dayits but he did not stop Mann, but

Occur d'Alene, Idaho, Oct Z, 1913.
Frank R. Gooding, Boise, Idaho. 1t is
a source of great satisfaction to the
abiding citizens of north Idaho. to
learn that you have accepted the chal-
lenge of the Nonpartisan league and
that you are fighting against the
scheme to substitute a condition in
our state bordering on anarchy for
one of government.
In this contest now going on in
Idaho you have record which gives
your assertions great value. From
personal knowledge konw you. gave
the late lamented Steunenberg ger
sonal and official aid in his war
against anarchy. He lost his life as
the result of that war but pray that
no such end awaits your defense of es-
tablished society in Idaho.
When the unspeakable riots of the
Occur d'Alene of 1899 occurred I hap
pened to be state auditor. The extent
of these bloody outbreaks necessitated
the declaration by Governor Ste,nen-
berg of martial law.
He saw fit to appoint me under our
state law his representative in the dis
turbed district in order to re-estab-
fish normal conditions.
At that time H. F. Samuels, Nonpar-
tisan candidate for. governor, was
prosecuting attorney Of ShoshOne
county, the scene Of the Instruction.
He had personal knowledge that muir
ders had been committed and that the
great mills of the Bunker Hill & SulIi-
van company had been destroyed by
the rioters and that hundreds of work.
men thereby had been thrown out of
employment, and yet he took no action
to punish the offenders.
AS administrator of martial law 1
appealed to him to do something to
vindicate the state and the law. He
Samuels was then forced to go be-
fore the courts and disqualify himself
in all trials growing out of the Occur
dAlene riots.
To perform the duty he had sworn
to perform other attorneys, at great
expense had to be retained by the
state. Senator Borah, James H. Haw-
ley and J. H. Forney were three Of the
attorneys so retained.
In the prosecution Samuels took alb

Lightning at Sea.

When proper precautions are taken
SHIPS at sea are in no danger Of being
destroyed by lightning. OF all the da2-
gers that beset the seaman, lightning
is the only one that he can guard
against with perfect thorou illness.
Permanent conductors, properly ar
ranged, offer the most complete pro
lection from the electric fluid.
Before this fact was well under
stood, lightning was very frequent
cause of damage to shipping. In 1908
30 1915 no fewer than seventy vessels
OF the English navy were entirely Grip
pied by being struck. It was no I'M
common thing for vessels to he set on
fire so completely by lightning as 10

stances probably lost their lives
