In spite of the fact that the Non
partisan league received good
drubbing in Idaho, as well as in
other states. week ago last Tues
day and two years ago, it must be
remembered that a large number of
Idaho farmers helped TO give it that
drubbing. The result of the last
election is positive proof that the
farmers of Idaho have arrived at
the conclusion that the Nonpartisan
league under the leadership of Nc
Kaig, Waters, and others, is a fraud
And it will continue to be a fraud
as long as the formers permit such
men to be at its head.
Many people now believe the
league to be dead, but as lone as

Chapter a.

Chapter 4.
An American soldier of the line does
not talk much about his mother.
Something holds him back. But he
thinks about her.
When ordered to the front he writes
last to ner. When letters come from
home he looks first for hers. When
he returns from war, hers is the first
face he seeks.
If in battle he faces death, it Is her
features that flash upon him. II he
has time to remember his home 1t
is her form that means home to him.
This, l believe, is true Of ninety sol
diers in hundred.
No man feels more deeply than the
American soldier what war means to
American ENTHUSIASTICALLY for
eign war. SO one of the first thoughts
that come to soldier after reading
the league covenant is this: Is it
right to expose the mothers of Amer
lea to all The grief of war, just to help
foreign nation settle boundary
quarrel or win a political dispute?
The one consolation of the American
mother, when her son said goOd-by,
was that he wore the uniform Of his
country and marched away under the
flag Of the United States. He went
because the government of his coun-
try called him. He would fight to up
hold the honor of the United States.
He would risk his life to protect his
country and his people. He would
risk his life to punish the enemies Of
his country.
This pride in their sons American
spirit and American loyalty carried
million American mothers through the
anguish Of seepless nights. It was
what brought them through the tor
ture of The days when American young
men were dying by thousands and no
news came to tell who still lived and
who had gone.
Now just imagine war which had
not even this comfort for mothers
heart! Could anything he sadder?
Think of the mother whose son would
be sent to Asia to protect the Meso-
potamian oil fields from Russia, or
help France rivet the bonds on Syria
Or to get a piece of Turkey for
Greece! Or to turn some nasty little
territorial trick for people we have
never seen and cause nobody could
understand!
Are the mothers Of America to be
crucif1ed for foreign Quarrels that new
iu,o oviv .
more needless outrage to be imposed
on American womanhOod? Can a SOL
dier think of more p&inful sacrifice,
this side of death?
know that some men, who have
not felt death facing them ia front
and anguish waiting on them at home,
have said much about fighting for

The Davis administration in Idaho
was given complete approval in the
November 2 election. The propa-
ganda of the state being broke, of
waste and extravaganza, and Of the
big political machine, charged to
the governors administration by its
opponents, all went for naught with
the voters when they were given
the opportunity to express their ap-
prevail or rejection of two years
more of the same kind of admins
tration. The supposed injustice of
of the new primary law also went
en- the rocks according to the pop
Nlar opinion reflected by the vote
Governor Davis during his campaign
over the state came to the people
with the truth about his administra-
ton. basing his claim for election
on his former good record of con-
structive work, and the people of
