Anybody can steal an automobile,

But even IL that were true, know
ing that the law required the item
lied publication, their decisions were
farafetched when they refused on any
grounds to carry out the provisions
of the law. They said 1t would cost
too much money. About three years
ago we wrote the board letter and
said that IL they would make the full
publications as required by the law,
one year, this paper would furnish
the service for one-fourth of the
standard rate. They talked the mat
ter over in the meeting and decided
to accept the offer, but sent In the
usual condensed report which dealt
only with totals and did not mean
anything and was not worth anything
when 1t was done. 1t merely recited
that they had received certain
amounts from the county treasury
and had expended it for salaries, fuel
and a few other items mentioned in

lump sums.
To the average person, such
squirming TO meet and evade the sit
uation as we put IL uD to them, was
sufficient to create suspicion, but we
had such profound confidence In all
members of the board and their
treasurer. that we let 1t 60 and al
lowed them to go on violating the
law in the name of economy, tho in
the light of the shortages of that
period as shown in the auditors re-
port printed in this issue, the best
we can say of them is that II they
were sincere in the excuse they gave,
they showed very unsound judgment,
and there was at least one among
them, the treasurer, who knew then,
knows now, and knew long before
that. that II our suggestions we're
followed, somebody would have to
quit stealing the money collected to
educate the children.
We repeat what we said in the
first line, "The Blackfoot school
board are getting educated" They
would not take information from the
editor given to them orally in their
meetings nor thru the columns of
the paper. We shall see now If they
will take it from the auditors they
have employed to canvass the books
and make report. It is an official
document, cannot be suppressed, has
not been contradicted, and they have
to sacrifice many times the cost. Of
full publications to find out that the
very economy they practiced brought
them the big loss.

but that where q duty was neglected
or overlooked it was not really will

who brought the suit were not sat

We have an official at BlackfoOt
who has held various positions in
the court house land when any Of
these COMMISSIONS were brought to his
attention in the days Of the tax fight,
he would side with the officials and
say it was the law, but 1t was not
mandatory and the officials could do
as they pleased about it. With that
kind of a prosecuting attorney,
backed by a Judge, who would put
in with the ring every time, there
was only one court to appeal to-
the court of publicity, and that fin
ally put them out of office.

nected with the missing item would
know 1t was missing and could make
complaint. The fear of exposure acts
as a damper on officials tampering
with funds. That is the theory we
have always advanced, and in county
matters we have insisted on segregat-
ing the assigned accounts and pub
fishing the items rather than the
totals. We worked on school boards
at different times to get them to fol-
low that plan, but they always re-
fused to do it. They always dis

POLITICAL VICTORIES
THAT WERE DEFEATS

The good old state Of Nebraska
had some stirring campaings a
quarter of century ago that are
worth refectng upon occasionally.
There are a good many people now
living who were not residents OF
Nebraska then and do not happen to
know much If anything about it.
There are a good many young men
and women voting now who were
not taking any notice twenty-five
years ago.
In the early nineties, the principal
issues in campaigns were the tarih
and a little of temperance and inter-
nal improvements, and some heated
debates over the subsidies or bonuses
for the Pacific railroads. The green
back party had about run it's course,
free silver was coming into promin-
ence, and great wave of populism
was spreading in states where special
effort was made. Nebraska had an
attack of acute populism that went
to their heads. Organizers went
about making single-handed talks,
and building up memberships on q
plan that was a little different; each
member took solemn oath to vote
with the body Of his party land also
took an obligation to keep mum, say
little and be at the polls to vote early
in the day. II the opposition held
rallies or meetings to discuss current
issues, these oath-bound fellows
stayed away for it was part OF the
program not to take any chances of
being convicted that they were in
error. They were simply going to
show the opposition something and
they did. They controlled the legis-
lature and spent the winter fighting
and raising hades in legislation.
They disrupted business, mems earn
ings in enterprises we're swept away,
and hard times followed. Laborers
and the people Of small means suf-
fered the most because they had the
least to tide them over the panicky
conditions.

about this county talking to little
gatherings of farmers, and leaving
them sworn in as members, with
president, a secretary and piece of
paper called q charter, for which they
paid their good money in membership
fees. Many young men, impressed
with the radical statements made by
such men and accepting them as cor
rect, took an obligation under oath,
that seemed uncalled for at the time
and emphatically repugnant on quiet
reflection. The net result Of such
operations was to get young men
muddled SO they felt like staying
away from the polls and getting the
vicious element Of community,
where they could be reached and
controlled.
When our very populistic legislature
was adjoining they stole q part OF
the state library, matter of about
$50 leather-bound volumes. They
had polite, Boshevistic way of doing
1t. Each member had been furnished
with books on his desk for reference
in legal matters, and they decided to
take everything that was in or on
their desks, stationery, books etc.
Somebody with a smaller train of
Bolshevism than the others, raised
a question whether 1t was not petty
larceny to take the books that had
been brought from the state library.
Then Bolshevism broke out in a prac-
tical way by the Introduction of a
resolution saying that the books and
stationery belonged to the members.
They had been in the habit Of en-
acting laws governing business and
property land why not legislate the
title to this property! They had
maintained that the government had
the right to do anything. and they
and the governor constituted the
government, SO they Communicated
the books and carried them home in
triumph.
But the people of Idaho had a
great deal of good sense along with
their generosity and patience. They
scented danger In this type of men,
and have been eurbing them ever
since. Once in 6 while we send a
man to Boise to legislate, who Is not
above getting his own name into the
appropriation bill opposite some fig
ures or something that is Bolshe-
vistic, but most of the people of the
county have learned that the good
old constitution of the United States
and the constitutions of the various
states are good enough to, tie to, and
they do not care to elect men who
are advocating radical departures
from them.
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1918-10-22

similar experience. For a while the
state house was barricaded and leg
islation was enacted under martial
law. Sweeping changes and innova-
tions were the rule. There was a
general "bust-up" in the methods Of
handling prisons, asylums and reform
schools. Boys in the reform schools
and asylums whose youthful powers
were source of trouble, were sub
jected to surgical operations that un-
sexed them, and many of them grown
past middle age now, have lived the
part of eunuchs and cursed the po-
pulistic management that could not
restore their natural functions. Vot-
ers who had been talked into taking
the obligation to support the new
movement" in the campaign, after
witnessing the outrages and the dis
tress that followed, woke to reali-
zation of the priceless privilege Of
using their own Judgment every day
and especially on election day.. No
more oath-bound campaigns for them
and no man dare approach them with
proposals to agree to vote the way
the crowd does.
In Colorado and Idaho, the West
ern Federation of Miners was devel-
oping. The writer has heard the
workers sit around and talk of how
the voters should band themselves
together and select their candidates
or have the union leaders do it, and
then all vote as directed, the penalty
of death to be inflicted for failure
to stand by the agreement as to vot-
ing. And many man gave up his
life in a dark shaft because he was
not loyal to such a bunch.
The populistic movement travelled
gradually westward. Denver for a
time had a cannon planted in the
front door Of the state house. Idaho
had populistic legislature and a
candidate from Bingham county who
was elected, was unseated by that
body, and man who received the
minority vote was seated, because he
would act with the majority in the
house of representatives, and they
needed every vote they could get.
Shoup, Claggett, Dubois and others
contested for election to the United
States senate, with the result that
Heitfield was elected, and Idaho was
represented in the highest legislative
body by man who merely knew the
warehouse business and could make
money on farmers grain. A states
men he was not, and was promptly
forgotten after the expiration of his
term.

never farmed in their lives, went

EXPLORER SAFE
At Fl. YUKON
FORMER UNIVERSITY OF NORTH
DAKOTA STUDENT FINISHES

Vilhjalmur Stcfansson, famous Arc
tic explorer, discoverer of the blond
Eskimos, and formerly a student at
the University Of North Dakota, has
safely arrived with his party at Fort
Yukon, on the Yukon river, Alaska.
After the loss of his ship, he discov
cred a large island, or continent, off
Prince Patrick island. However, n.
fail to realize lis objective explora
ations north of the mouth of the Me-
Kenzie Island, where he expected to
find a new land. In the vicinity he
did make some explorations during The
summer of 1855. During that time
he was reported lost several times, and
in all he did lose ID men. Stefansson,
on arriving at his destination, divided
his party into two divisions, and in
charge of one ne started on his jour
ney of exploration, which resulted in
the loss of his ship, and forced jour
ney overland of many miles in length.
The ship, Karluk, became ice-bound,
and during one of his periods Of ex-
ploration, went down with the loss of
eight men. Of total of II, 9 escaped
to Herald Island alive. The loss of
the boat occurred in 1915, but despite
this, the work of exploration was con-
tinued. In May, 1916, he was
joined by party on the Polar Bear
at Cape James Murphy. Mr.. Stefans-
son is expected to sail from Nome.

now consists of "a individuals.
