GREATEST DANGER
is FROM WITHIN"
GOVERNOR BURNQUIST QUOTES
LINCOLN IN ADDRESS AT
SEATTLE LAST NIGHT

SEATTLE.-As Lincoln prophesied
before the Civil War, so is it true to-
day that "our greatest danger is not
from without, but from Within" Gov
ernor ]. A. A. Bunrquist of Minnesota,
Lincoln day orator at the annual ban
quet Of the King county Young Mems
Republic club, declared tonight.
"The most threatening menace to
OUT free institutions today" he as
serted, "is not our own sectionalism,
the despotism of Spain or the
kaiserism of Germany. 1t is, in the
words Of Lincoln, The increasing dis
regard for law which pervades the
country 1t is the spirit of bolshev-
ism which is 'springing up amongst
u.s. and which, if not checked, will
eventually produce a class war that
may be even more serious to our ma
tion than any of its previous con-
flicts.''
Citing history to show that ''no foe
from abroad has been able to crush
u.s." Governor Burnquist enumerated
ing promoted in this country" and
which "are indicative of the present
danger" These he gave as the Indus
trial Workers of the World, socialism
and the Non-partisan League.
"The notorious organization called
the Industrial Workers of the World" ;"
he said, "has for it's well known pur-
pose the revolutionary destruction of
our political institutions. In certain
localities this anarchistic organization
has gained an amazing amount of
strength, and throughout the country
it has issued membership cards to the
extent of hundreds Of thousands"
Many leaders in the socialism move
ment, the speaker declared, "are
closely affiliated and in sympathy
with the I. w. w." their attitude to-
ward the world war, he said, "shows
their class hatred, and opposition. to
our existing form of government"
Leaders of the third, or non-parti-
san league movement, the speaker
asserted, also are closely connected
with the I. W. W. and the socialists.
Their work, likewise, is being carried
on "in practically every section of
the Union for the purpose of uniting
upon basis of class distinction, the
1aboring elements of our cities and
the rural population of the country"
"The end" he continued, "desired
by the more radical of these discon-
tented elements is the establishment
in America of a bolshevik govern
ment similar to that in Russia. They
believe in the rule Of the minority and

AND SONS
HAVE A GOOD TIME
BANQUET AT ODIST
CHURCH LAST NIGHT WAS A
PLEASANT EVENT FOR ALL

Fathers and sons met last evening,
200 strong, in the basement of the
Methodist church and enjoyed a
unique program of viands and vivac-
ity. There was feast of reason and
flow of soul to which all responded
as far as appearances indicate, fully.

master and had used his grinder to
good advantage. Toasts were re-
sponded to by the following: H. T..
Lewis, T. E. Wiley, Alvin E. Evans,
w. C. Bleamaster, Charles Mac
Caughey, Scout Leader Hawley, and
S. J. CLANCY. These toasts were all
brief and to the point. Mr.. Lewis
spoke in humorous vein about the
impossibility of fathers fooling their
sons and making them believe that
they, when boys, had been tin saints;
Mr.. Wilev spoke of the Importance
of athletic training for boys; Mr..
Evans referred to Abraham Lincoln
as boys hero who was himself
real boy; Coach Bleamaster describ-
ed other banquetS Which he had at
tended of this sort; Rev. Charles Mac
Caughey urged the necessity for a
swimming pool and other equipment
for boys activities and urged that
religion be made to function service
ably; Mr.. Hawley briefly told the
story of the scouts movement and Mr..
CLANCY gave the story of one boys
experience and how he had been in
fluenced by such meeting as this.
A quartette consisting of Messrs.
Boyd, Eldridge, Soulen and Lewis,
sang two selections that were much
enjoyed Miss Bernadine Adair sang
two we'll received selections and a
boys quartette consisting of the two
Wilson boys, Francis Eldridge, and
Forrest Brigham. Mrs. Jonte put on
a skit entitled "Three Young Maids of
Lee" Miss Camille Mcdaniel rem
dered several reading selections which
won merited applause.

.LATAH COUNTY is
HIGHLY PRAISED
BYRON DEFENBACH SAYS THIS
is THE BEST GOVERNED
COUNTY IN THE STATE.

That Latah county is the best
governed county in the state of Idaho"
is the statement made by Byron Def
enbach, of Boise and Lewiston, who
is here to audit the books and ac-
counts of tht county for the third
time in the past four years. Mr.
Defenbach has been employed with
his sons to audit the accounts of IL
counties in Idaho and has made Is
auditing trips in Idaho. He and his
son will be here several weeks as all
of the accounts of the county are to
be audited.
Praises Governor Davis.
Mr.. Defenbach thinks Governor Da
Wis is making a splendid record and
that his new form of government for
the state will prove great success.
When in Spokane the first of the
week he was interviewed by report
er for Spokane daily,an the in
terview is here republished as it has
much interest for Idaho people. 1t
follows:
tThe people of Idaho generally
seem to have sized up the new cab
met form of government of Idaho as
a personal government" said Byron
Defenbach, expert accountant, of
Lewiston and Boise, Idaho, at one
time assistant postmaster of Spokane,
who is at the Davenport.
"With a good governor we will
have splendid government and with
a poor one poor government. The
bill, as I understand it, carries some
80 or 80 appointments to be made by
the governor We have good man
now and will have a good govern
ment. No man has entered upon the
duties of the office with more gen
eral public support, according to my
in travelling through the
state. Already he is looked upon as
a formidable candidate for United
States senator two years hence"

PLAN CAMPAIGN TO
POISON SQUIRRELS
UNITED ACTION TO RID LATAH
COUNTY OF SQUIRRELS THIS
YEAR is ASKED

The Latah County Farm Bureau
is planning a countrywide squirrel
control campaign for the coming sea-
son. The federal government has been
interested, and w. E. Crouch, rodent
control expert for Idaho, has promised
to spend some time in Latah county
at the time the squirrels are beginning
to appear. Nearly everyone will use
the formula now recommended by the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture This formula calls for one ounce
of alkaloid of strychnine and one
eighth of an ounce of saccharine to
ten quarts of oats. This quantity OF
oats will make about 500 bats. With
this in mind, one can easily figure
about how much poison and saccha-
rine he will need.
The druggists of the county are at
present trying to decide how much
strychnine they should order for their
trade for the coming season. They
must place their orders very soon.
Each farmer should get in touch with
the druggist from whom he expects to
purchase his poison this year and let
him know about how much poison Will
be needed this year.
County Agent o S. Fletcher has
written to practically every druggist in
the county to learn what price will be
charged for alkaloid of strychnine this
year. Nearly all have answered and
said that their price will be some
where between $500 and $2.25 per
ounce, but not over $225. However,
everyone should bear in mind that for
the protection of both himself and his
druggist, he should Immediately let
the druggist know how much strych-
nine will be needed this season.

that minority should be the proletar-
iat" The less radical seek, he said,
to enact legislation placing all in
dustrial institutions under govern
mental ownership, control and oper-
alton, resulting ultimately in the
complete surrender of individual
rights"
Ample government authority now
exists, the governor pointed out, to
prevent any industrial monarchy and
curb detrimental individual fortunes.
A change in the form of government
would not change human nature. The
Frequently misused" liberties of
freedom of speech and the press
should not be permitted, yet on the
other hand, he said, persons advo-
eating a peaceable change in govern
ment by legal means fought to be
protected in their constitutional
rights" Counter education is "the
only way in which to check such per-
missable PRONUNCIATION of socialism" "
Persons "who are here to advocate
establishment of bolshevik govern
ment ought at once to be deported to
Russia where they can enjoy the kind
of government they desire. Their phil
osophy is similar to that of the war
lords of Germany"
Concluding, Governor Burnquist
said every effort should be made TO
eliminate "this threatening menace"
in a peaceful manner. But if this
were not possible, force, he asserted,
when used in righteous cause, els

maintenance of law and order and
for the preservation of our govern
ment and the lives, liberty and prop
erty of it's citizens.

NEWS FROM OUR
CORRESPONDENTS
OLIVE SPRINGS

The death angel entered the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. M. S. Morrison on
Wednesday afternoon at a o'clock and
claimed for its victim their little three
year old son, John Robert. He had
been i'll for some time and all loving
hearts and physicians could do was
done to relieve him, but after great
suffering he fell quietly asleep and is
now at rest. Johnnie was very
obedient and one of the most affec-
tionate childs. This dear little boy
was not only joy to the devoted pa
rents and grandparents, but to all who
came in touch with him. Too pure
for this earth, he will blossom in
heaven. Oh parents, do not weep.
"The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh
away; blessed be the name of the
Lord" To this great cloud God will
show you silver lining and as our
earthly home is saddened and dark,
heaven is brighter for where our
treasures are there are our hearts also.
He leaves, besides his parents and
two sisters, grandparents, several I'M
cles and aunts and large number of
cousins and a host of little friends to
mourn his death. The funeral was
conducted at Maloney Springs church
on Friday afternoon by Rev. S. E.
Cassidy and the interment in the
cemetery at this place. The beautiful
little white casket being covered with
many lovely floral offerings. Two ia
vorite hymns were sung very sweetly,
"Nearer, My God, to Thee" and CAS-
leep in Jesus"
The pall-bearers were Messrs. j. E..
