HARRY L. DAY FLAYs NON
PARTISAN STATE TICKET,


Wallace. October 25.-Harry L.
Day, democratic state committeeman
from Shoshone county, and the most
potent influence in North Idaho poll
tics, is doing all he can to defeat H. F.
Samuels. Nonpartisan league candi-
date for governor and is appealing to
all loyal democrats to repudiate the
Nonpartisan candidates. Jerome j.
Day, state democratic chairman, will
leave no stone unturned to accomplish
it.
II such a condition prevtiIs in such
a democratic stronghold as Shoshone
county it looks like the entire repub-
lican ticket will be swept into office
In November.
Harry L. Day has issued the follow
ing statement:
"Mr. samuels viii be defeated by
10000 to rs. OOO majority.
Here In Shoshone county, banner
democratic county OF the state, where
he is best known and where he lived
for about 20 years and acquired his
fortune, he will be repudiated deci-
sively.
His posture as democrat is an IN
suit to the rights and the intelligence
of the faithful democrats Of the state
who have carried the party's banner
through long years OF adversely
In my judgment Mr.. Samuels Is
totally untitled for the position of
governor and / believe this opinion
will be sustained by the voters over
whelmingly.
The same position applies to l.. !.
Purcell, candidate for congress, who
has been q lifelong republican, par
tieipating in the republican state plat
form convention IN June and was ae-
tive as member OF the resolution
committee.

gram is running true te form It
flies the black flag of hypocrisy, false
hood and deceit. It's principles are
those of the Prussian and the Bolshe-
Wiki contempt for the rights of others
and the INSCRIPTIONS conceaiment Of
It's real principles. The so-called ag-
gre CATION led by the Dakota adventur-
lers is aggressively partisan. socialistic
and un-American.

this county. which has always Loyalty
delivered its party goods, ! cali upon
all faithful democrats, both in the

THE County TICKET.

Ezra HOWGIt, the Democratic NOM
inee for County Commissioner OF the
First District, has served the people
of Bear Lake county faithfully and
we'll for a period of six years. The
interests of the county and her peo-
pie have been guarded zealously and
to a degree that no citizen could have
done more.
John T. Peterson, the Democratic
nominee for Commissioner of the
Second District, has served the peo-
pie of the county for a period of
four years and ably assisted his fell
low commissioners in a way that no
citizen or tax payer can complain,
always ready to listen to suggestions
and to work for and promote any in
serest wherein Bear Lake county or
her citizenship might be benefited.
NJ b. Cherry, the Democratic nom
inee for County Commissioner OF the
Third District. is a man who is tried
in the work of public service and is
tried and successful business man
in the commercial matters of our
county, and we as a committee and
head of the Democratic party of the
county feel we are placing before the
voters of the county for the Office of
Commissioner a man whose qualiflca-
tions may be equaled but cannot be
excelled by any citizen of the state
of Idaho. Mr. Cherry is very famil-
lar with the work and records of
county officials, he having held the
Office of Clerk of the District Court
before coming to Idaho. He is at the
present time manager of the Consoli-
dated Wagon & Machine company's
branch at Montpelier, and has been
connected with this company for a
period of IL years. He is an expert
accountant an exceptionally fine
qualification for an Office of this ma
ture. Moreover, he is acitizen whose
loyalty and integrity cannot be ques-
| toned, and IL elected as a Commits
sioner OF this county will. give his
time and energy to promote the well
fare and interests of Bear Lake coun-
ty and her people.
Standby H. Rich, present treas
lurer of this county, and Democratic
nominee for the ONCE of Auditor, ia
a man who needs no introduction to
\ the people of Bear Lake county. He
has served you faithfully, and under
his management the Office of the
Treasurer of Bear Lake county is one
OF the efficient and business-like Of
fees in the State of Idaho. His work
as treasurer stands out far and
above the work done by any of his
predecessors, and 1t is not too much
to anticipate that should he be honor
ed by the voters of this county with
election to the Auditors office he will
bring the Office up to the same high
efficiency that he did the office OF
4 Treasurer.
Asa Athay. the present nominee on
the Democratic ticket for aharIff "a
Bear Lake County, like Mr.. Rich
needs no introduction to the voters
Of the county, he having served the
people Of this county as sheriff in q
faithful and energetic manner, ever
watchful and alert, ready to act at

had been violated. But the office and

who have been nagging and knocking
and rocking the boat to come out in
the open and let the world see who
they are and what they mean. He
knows who have been hindering the
work of the government and now he
wants the people to know. It was for
this reason that he issued his appeal
to the people of America, knowing it
would smoke the propagandists out
of the grass, and out of the grass they
came. The American people know
now who has been fighting the Pres
ident. They know now who origin
ated departmental inquiries which
placed valuable information in the
hands of the kaiser. They know now
who 1t was that secretly opposed ev-
cry move the President made since
the war began. In single stroke the
President has exposed their ambua-
cade.
Voters. don't let the Hun game be
played here as 1t was in Russia. This
is no hour to strike at the President.
A vote that will repudiate the Pres
ident Is a direct blow at the United
States of America. Contemplate for
moment the great Joy It would bring
in the kaiser's circle. We ardently
believe that Idaho will not forsake
the President in this crisis. Rather.
Idaho will stand with him and rebuke
the unthinking politicians who have
sown discord and distrust.

Of the voters. Their campaign is in
the hands Of the people in whom
they have confidence. Nearly all NJ,
them are engaged in the work of for
warding the war measures of Pres
ident Wilson. some as officials and
some as volunteers N the war activ-
tiles. and so they will continue re-
gardless OF the results OF this cleo
ton, believing that the winning OF
the war for worldwide liberty and
the keeping of Bear Lake county well
up in the front as loyal and liberty
loving community Is of greater inn
portance than securing public office.

The body of Archie Jensen, who
died from influenza at Pueblo, on Oct.
%, while en- route with his comrades
from Camp Freomnt to some embar-
kation point in the east, did not ar
rive here until Wednesday morning Of
this week. Delay in shipment Of the
body was due to the fact that he died
at hospital instead Of at a canton
ment, and 1t required several days to
secure the necessary permit from the
government to ship the body.
Relatives ana frineds from Ovid
met the body and accompanied by the
firing squad and friends from Mont
pelier, 1t was conveyed to the Ovid
cemetery where services were held.
Archie was the same age as his
comarde. Ira Hymas, and they had
chumed together almost constantly
while at Camp Fremont. He was In
good health when the order came for
his company to entrain for the east
and 1t was with deep regrets that he
was compelled to leave his comrade
and friend behind. Little did the
boys dream that their parting at
Camp Fremont would be their final
one. Shortly after the train left Salt
Lake he was stricken with the dread
disease. and was taken therefrOm at
at Pueblo, the first town where hos
pital accommodations could be secur-
ed for him.
He was the son of Mr.. and Mrs
Lars z. Jensen of Ovid. Six brothers
and four sisters. mourn with their
parents the untimely death OF the one
who had been called TO serve his
country in the great world war.

USE HONEY, SAVE SUGAR

About sixty pounds of sugar are
consumed each year in the United
States by every man, woman and
child With the increased price of
sugar beekeepers should remember
that honey can take the place of
sugar both for sweetening and pre-
serving.
Too many people have used honey
only as spread for bread and
griddle-cakes, forgetting that it can
be used in lea and coffee, in making
cakes and preserving.
We hear much about the clean
platter, and savingthe waste so that
our Allies on the other side of the
sea can be fed; ut in the matter of
securing honey there is fearful
amount going to waste every year
simply because there are no bees in
certain localities to gather the nee
tar so freely given by the flow
ers.-Farm Journal.
