THE MASK OFF.

The grinning skeleton of anarchy in
its most violent form is always found
whenever the mask of patriotism is
torn off the Partisan leaders. Here
in Idaho they pose as democrats. In
North Dakota they stole the organiza-
ton of the Republican party and use
it in the same manner as they use the
Democratic party in Idaho.
When Ray McKaig came to Idaho
last winter he stated that he was at
that time state secretary of the Repub-
lican party in North Dakota. Here is
a resolution recently passed by the
Non Partisan organizations in Het-
finger and Adams counties, North Da-
kota:
Whereas. Ut is the sense of the peo-
pie in control of the present nominees
of the Republican party that the state
should own the business in the state
of North Dakota: and, Whereas, we
believe in equality and Justice; Be it
resolved that our state committeeman
be instructed to have placed in the
platform of the Republican party and
nominees for the legislature for the
Forty ninth legislative district be in
structed TO advocate the state owner
ship of farm lands, horses. cattle and
machinery and that the same be ac-
quired on the basis of value for the

governpent of our beloved state OF
Idaho.
'Some of their leaders are disloyal
/ Socialists. |. w. WIS and pro- Germans,
81 rejected Republicans. Others are
suspected of disloyalty. None of the
Non Partisan candidates should be
called true Democrats. No true,
straight and loyal Democrat should be
found helping put them in possession
of our government.
In other states the Non -Partisans
have unhorscd the Republicans in a
similar way, saying they are Repubn-
cans. which goes to show they are hy-
pocrites. deceiving the people.
Take for example our Non Partisan
candidate for congress. l.. /. Purcell.
He is life long Republican who can
not win on his own ticket and after
helping make the Republican state
platform this year he says he is a
Democrat. Shades of Ananias, such
hypocrisy. Honor is a precious jewel,
but do YOU Democrats think it rests on
the brow of l.. |. Purcell? Well, don't
eithter. Wouldn't it turn your stom-
achs to have to say Hon. L. L. Purcell?
The same of Jeppesen, Samuels. ct al.
They were put on the Democratic tick
ct by everything but Democrats. Now
what shall we do? What ought we to
do? Do we Democrats owe the Boil
sheviks our votes? Are we going to
give our state over to hypocrites and
That would make us a
party to the act, disloyalists ourselves.
I prefer to vote for straight honorable |

all true and loyal Democrats. Now |
you farmers and townspeople who are |
loyal at heart, do not be farther de- |
eeived. Germany first wants to de-
ceive the world, then ruin it. Don't |
lelp any of their side shows.
BE true, loyal citizens now and you

GOODING FIGHTING FOR
THE HONOR OF IDAHO

Frank r. Gooding is making the fight
in Idaho that the daily press of the
state should have made many months
ago.
He is making the fight in Idaho that
the ST. Paul Dispatch and other loyal
papersmade in Minnesota, saving the
honor and protecting the good name of
that state.
He is making the fight in Idaho that
the Oregonian made in Oregon and that
the Butte Miner made in Mo
both these states have been saved from
the red hand of state Socialism.
He is making the fight for the honor
of Idaho. and every loyal red -bfooded
man and woman in the state should
enlist under the standard he has raised.
The fight is on; there are but two
sides. Let every man do his duty.

IDAHO BE GOVERNED
FROM NORTH DAKOTA?

| If the state ticket, headed by SamueIs
for governor. and nominated by the
Non Partisan league. not by Demo
Gratis, shall be elected Idaho's state af-
fairs viii be run from North Dakota
by Townley and Arthur LIE Seuer.
Townley is the absolute boss of the
Non Partisan league. and LIE Seuer, the
L W. w. leader and Socialist and dis
loyalist, is the principal adviser and
executive secretary of the league In
North Dakota every official act is di-
rected by Townley and LIE Seuer. The
state officials there are mere dunn
mics.
In idaho the hand picked candidates
of the league are also to be mere dunn
mics if the Non-Partisan league wins
in the November election. Like every
legislative candidate of the Non-Par-
tisan league. they are pledged to take
no action without the approval OF the
executive committee of the league,
which means Townley and lie Seuer.
Such state of affairs would mean
Idaho's public affairs run from the out
side by rabid Socialists, by men who
would set up a Bolsheviki government
in Idaho.
We have every confidence that the.
loyal citizens of Idaho, irrespective OF
party, will administer a sharp rebuke
to this plan of the Nom Partisan league
and elect the Republican ticket from
top to bottom.

NO REAL DEMOCRATIC TICKET

| 1t should be clear to the voter this
| fall in looking over his ballot, that,
should he be a Democrat, he has no
state Democratic ticket to vote for.
True, on the ballot will appear a list
of candidates with the word Demo-
cratic" after each of the individuals
masqueradi1g under the Democratic
title. but this is the list framed by the
Nom Partisan league. The word Non
Partisan itself does not appear oh the
ticket.
1t must be thoroughly understood
that the Non-Partisan went into the
Democratic primary and stole the or
ganization and the name, and the Non
Partisan candidates, some of whom are
renegade Republicans and some of
whom are Socialists. are punched under
the camoufage of Democratic" so
there is really no Democratic state
ticket, and most democratic party
workers understand this. though it
may not occur to the average individual
when he looks at his ballot.
As Fred Floed has very truthfully
said: THE Democrats have no ticket
n the field this year" the name having
been flchci from the regular partisans.
The Republican and Socialist tickets
on the ballot are the only two sailing
under their own colors. and there is
nothing bogus about either of them. /
But the so-called Democratic ticket is /
not a Democratic ticket, and every I
where the word occurs after a name on
the state ticket it covers a Non-Par-
-isan.
The ballot is of much different form
his election and the candidates must
De voted for separately, and it viii re-
luire much more time to cast a ballot
han formerly. But unless you con-
lone the offense of the Nom Partisans
n raping the Democratic party steer
lear of every name on the state ticket ,
hat bears the title Democratic, for
t is not of that party, and is not en-
orSed by that party. !

pose of raising the sum of one hun
dred seventy million five hundred thou
sand dollars for the use of the seven
great organizations working with our

people about the necessity and benefits
of this work or that through these or
ganizations alone are we assured of
the most economical and honest dis
tribution and use of our mo ley for its
legitimate purpose. DON'T TALK,
PAY. You are not asked to GIVE;
you are asked to pay a just debt you
owe to those who are fighting your bat

| Weiser American.
NJ N Webb the well known Mann
Creek farmer and former member OF
the Idaho legislature, is out III an open
letter taxing issue with the Non Par
tisan league and advising his fellow
farmers to have nothing to do with it,.
His letter is addressed to the Loyal
Democrats of Idaho," and is as follows:
Democrats, loyalty is one of the
great virtues, and is in great demand
at the present time. He who is dis
loyal at this time viii not live long
enough to get rid OF the stain.
we are TO be put to the test as
never before. viii we as a party
prove true2 l hope we will, and YOU
will. Remember the wilful twelve.
Don't be disloyal
'"In 1912 when the Republican party
were dissa tisfied with 4 steamroller
ticket, they put out another ticket and
called it Progressive. They headed it
with as loyal a man as lived and fol-
lowed up with perfectly honorable
and loyal set of candidates. They set
before the people Il cir own principles
on their own platform and gave their
reason for their course. They won out
over the other faction. This was fair.
Now, we democrats have been unhorsed
by everything but Democrats. A lot
of Socialists, pro Germans, I. w. W.'s
and Republicans who say they are
Democrats They know they could not
win office on a straight ticket of their
lwn, but ask the Democrats to help
