WE|SER WINS
THE PENAAT

The ball game last Sunday be-
tween Weiser and Payette on the
Weiser ground was won by Weiser
which gives the pennant for the
Idaho-Oregon League to the Weiser
team. The game was perhaps the
most hotly contested of any game
during the season and was nobOdy's
game until the finish Every player
was on his toes from the time the
game was called. The score stood
3 to 3 in favor of Weiser. The Pay
ette boys are game losers and took
their defeat cheerfully. 1t was Wei
ser's turn anyhow-Payette won
the pennant last year.
While the winning of the pen
nant is settled, there are two more
good games yet to finish the sea-
sons series. Weiser will play Pay
cite on the home ground next Sun |
day and the following Sunday the
same teams will play at Weiser.

PATCH, POPULAR MAN OVER STATE

The Patch-for-Senator Club or

vey of Patch sentiment in the Coun-
ty. They found no anti-Patch senti-
ment in the entire County. Every
body is for Colonel Patch. Payette
County, the home of Colonel Patch
for the last 20 years, will stand
practically 1907 strong for his
nomination and election to the Unit
ed States Senate regardless of party
politics. With the people of Payette
County, who know Colonel Patch in
timately it is not a question of Party
politics, but of the man they know

It is gratifying to the people of
this County to learn that the
Colonel's candidacy is growing
stronger in every county in the State
In Ada County 115 former service
men, who are loyal to Colonel Patch,
have filed their nominations for can
didates to the County convention de-
termined to be in position to sup
port their choice.
1t is now freely admitted that
Colonel Patch would easily be re-
turned a victor if he could go out
before the people of the State in a
primary election. Some men profess
to believe that the old-time politi-
clans will maneuver Colonel Patch
out of the nomination at the State
Convention, but it is inconceivable
that party leaders, who realize that
Colonel Patch can win over John F.
Nugent, would jeopardize the sue
cess of the Republican Party and
help tie the hands of a Republican
President in order to crafty the
personal ambitions of few men
who have been political leaders in
the past. The people of Idaho gem

orally want Colonel Patch nominat-
ed for the Senate and if they could
be given the opportunity to vote di-
rectly for him there would be lit,
tie doubt, of his success at the polls,
Colonel Patch is eminently fitted
for the office to winch he aspires.
His education is of the very best.
His business career has demonstrat-
ed his ability along that line One of
the best things about Colonel Patch
is the fact that he is a man among
men, man whom every one enjoys
meeting and whom all classes of
men respect He is a friend TO every
man. no matter whether dressed in
o~eralls and blouse or behind the
counters of business or profession.
He is a man who will do credit to
his State in the great deliberative
body at Washington. He will present
matters of interest to his State in
business-like, systematic way and
will not trim his sails on account of
opposition. nor for policy's sake. He
is not a fadist, rides no hobbies, is
a keen business administrator and
an up-to-date student of government
al affairs and can, therefore, be re-
lied upon as safe man
Furthermore. Colonel Patch led
the men of Idaho in heroic service
during the World War, leading them
as only real leader can, into the
thick of battle on many of the now
historic fronts. The State of Idaho
owes no man anything because of
sentiment, but only because of fit
ness. Colonel Patch couples eminent
fitness with a service to his Country
which deserves the recognition of
his fellow citizens and they will not
forget it at the polls in November,
If he weathers the political mael-
strom at the State Convention in
August. He will do this if he is not
tricked by the "old gang,

Elsewhere in this issue we pub
lish the announcement of the candi-
dacy of Mrs. Kate NJ. Ainey for the
legislature If the legislative toga
falls upon Mrs. Ainey it will rest up
on capable shoulders. She was born
in Iowa, educated at Drake Univer-
sity and took a 15-year post-gradu-
ate course on an Iowa farm. She
has been, eighteen years, a bona fide
resident of Payette, loyal citizen,
thorough republican and consistent
booster for every worthy enterprise.
Besides raising a family of chill
dren she is real live member of the
wOmen's auxiliary to the Y. NJ. c. A,
the Portia Club, the Relief Corps, the
Red Cross, the Eastern Star and the
Church. During the entire period Of
her residence, she has been much in
evidence in the business, social and
political life of Payette. If a life of
service entities one to any thing, she
can read her title clear to the consid-
Grafton of the voters of Payette coun-
ty; and if she gets a vote for every
good deed done she will be trium-
phantly elected.
