FIGHT LIES WITH THE TRUTH


FERTILE fields Of endeavor are
open for an organized campaign for
combating Bolshevism and the perni-
cious teachings of the I. w. W. and
other real radical organizations by
means Of counter propaganda. In
England citizens organizations have
taken up campaign in counter propa-
ganda, which is having its effect and
is decidedly retarding the growth Of
the movement. Why not here?
So far no organized effort has been
made by the interests most vitality con-
cerned to counterfeit the preachings
by means of simple program Of tell
ing the actual facts about business, big
and little. In isolated instances man
ufacturers and producers have found
this plan successful. Forceful speak
ers personally acquainted with the men
employed N the plants have taken up
the challenge thrown down by the
preachers of revolution and anarchy,
and by plain. straightforward state
ments Of facts and figures have dis
proved every assertion made by the
agitators.
1t would seem peculiarly the func-
ton OF strong national organizations
to meet their employees and to COM
bat with unimpeachable records and
facts the false statements Of the revo-
lutionaries who by means of lies are
sowing strife throughout the land. In
almost every case all that would be
needed would be a plain showing of
fact and an analysis of the assertions
Of the anarchist speakers
Naturally the industrial, mercantile
and manufacturing interests Of the ma
ton are busy on problems involving
increased production, return to nor
NAL conditions. settlement OF labor
questions and the like. 1t is certain,
however, that none Of these questions
can or will be settled until the nations
business has rid itself of the perni-
ciously active revolutionaries whose
sole mission is to stir up strife and
discord between workers and employ
ers and thus prevent the very thing
the employers are trying to bring
about. The most effective way for
the employers to restore stability and
accomplish the ends toward which they
are working is to FIGHT LIES WITH
the ABSOLUTE TRUTH, PRoPA-

when discovered the Russian sconounle
device VS. OF course smashed. Nne-
land awoke to realisation that most
anything Il possible in this DAY and
age.
Lenine's statement that Bolshevism
can succeed in Russia only IL the
whole world is converted to the Rus
sian idea appears to be the inspira-
ton of the shipyard radicals, and the
explanation OF their recent activities
in American shipyards. A Baltimore
dry dock and shipbuilding company
employing 1000 men was the FIRST
American company to share the prob
lem of the clyde shipbuiiders. Its
plant was officially sovietized by
Armistice day. The work was done
by representatives of the Russian
workers Union, and the stan OF the
plant knew nothing of the plot until
circular No. was issued and fell into
the hands Of the manager. The de-
partment of justice then stepped in
aN
and discovered sixty radical agitators.
two Of whom were summarily sent to
Ellis island for deportation.
The important incident in the cpl
sode Is that the remaining radicals
were ousted not by the management
or the department of justice. but by the
men themselves through their. shop
committee. They went farther and
organized the Loyal Workers League
with four planks in the platform
loyalty. law and order. a fair days
work for fair days pay, and eIimi-
nation of un-American radicalism.
Their action struck at the root of radi-
calism. It robbed the radicals of fertile
grounds in which to plant their sedi-
tious ideas. and conferred on the radi-
calls the contempt Of the men whom
they sought to influence.

m, OIsE will be pardoned IL it shows
I0l aeasurable pride in the growth Of
80 Of its institutions--st Aiphonsus
hospital. On Tuesday OF this week
Appropriate exercises were held in
commemoration OF the silver anniver-
sasy OF this hospital by the
SISTERS Of the Holy Cross. 1t was
an event Of more than local import
ance. one that IL statewide la its scope.
Tor 81. Alphonsus is known from one
end Of Idaho to the other and has
treated patients from all parts Of the
state.
1t was on Dec. %, 1894 that st. AL
phonsus hospital opened Its doors with
elk sisters Of the Holy Cross in at
tendance and rs patients. 1t was one
OF the few hospitals then in existence
in the intermountain country and nat
u-aliy its establishment .-ttracted at
tention. Here indeed was refuge
wherein those In immediate need OF
medical attention could secure it. The
opening was In what is now small
end of one wing Of the big institution.
Soon these quarters became too small
and II was imperative an addition be
built. But that was soon outgrown,
q thsrd and finally another addition
became necessary. The end Is not
yet. st. Alphonsus hospital is
growing still and it will not be
many years before the entire block
on which it stands will be oc-
cupied. Today it has a capacity for
1875 patients, five times the number
originally cared for. In 1918 no less
t. an 1000 patients passed within it's
portals. During an average year the
stork leaves 400 babies a st. AL

piOucci 1hSy oAS 6ShS N~S
their kind deeds live. 1t was Mr.. and
Mrs. John A. O'Farrell who in 1866
decided to Rev. Toussaint Mesplie, as
trustee. the block of ground now &C.
cupied by the hospital and the first
Catholic church built in Boise was
erected thereon. That kind act should
and probably will never be forgotten.
Nor will the names of many more
donors.
The success of st. Alphonsus is due
to the remarkable fortitude and devout
service of the members of the Sisters
of the Holy Cross. Their efforts are
indeed tribute to woman's ability to
successfully manage big business af-
fairs. without material compensation
they have erected a lasting monument
In Boise and the intermountain coun-
try C. which they may we'll feel proud.
