Ex- GOVERNOR WILEY DEAD
N. B. Wiley, Executive of Idaho in
1890, Eies in Kansas.

BOISE.-A dispatch received in
Boise from Topeka, Kan, announces
that Sorman B. Wiley, former gov
ernor of Idaho, died at the Shawnee
county poor farm recently. For sever
al years former Governor Wiley has
been in destitute circumstances and
although the state of Idaho appropri-
ated $1,000 for him in 1913 to be paid
at the rate OF $50 month, that APP
preparation ran out and another bill
in late Legislature extending aid,
filed of passage.
Norman B. Wiley was born as Gull
ford, n Y, March 26, 1888 He was
educated at the Delaware Literary
Institute, Franklin, ~ Y, and in the
fall of 1858 went to California. In
the sprint of 1864 he came to Idaho
and during the territorial era held
several county offices. The first re-
publican state convention, which con-
vened at Boise on August 80, 1890,
nominated him for lieutenant gov
ernor and he was elected with the
rest of the candidates. When Gov
ernor Shoup resigned on December
10, 1890, to enter the United States
senate, Mr.. Wiley became governor.
his office he held until January l,
1893, when he was succeeded by W.
J. Mcconnell
He then went to Blue Canyon, Cal,
to accept position as mine superin-
tendent
On March 10, 1913, Governor Haines
approved an act of the Idaho legis-
lature appropriating $1,000 to pay Mr..
Wiley at the rate of $50 a month
while he lived or until the appropria-
ton was exhausted. The reason for
this appropriation as set forth in the
act was that a former governor of
Idaho was in failing health and the
action was taken by the legislature
merely as matter of gratitude.
he word of his death brought the
first information that he was in
Kansas
Wiley in his early life was noted
for his remarkable physique, but fol-
lowing his illness he became blind and
deaf and was unable to speak but
little. He was never married.

Red Cross Work

The Red Cross work man
can not regain his health IN
government hospital when he realizes
that his loved ones at home may be
suffering in the meanwhile. He can
not acquire the new usefulness that
vocational training strives to give
him if he thinks that while he IS
working to attain this usefulness, the
folks back home are feeling the pangs
of privation.
Finding work for these veterans,
seeing to it that in this work they
are permitted to enjoy the privileges
that were theirs before they an
swered their oountry's call, are func-
tions that come within the scope OF
endeavor of the Red Cross.
During the current year the Red
Cross spent $10,000,000 on this sol
der work and more money was
needed and needed desperately. The
Fifth roll call makes it its aim to
see that every single case is ade-
quately provided for.
Hardly less important is the work
undertaken by the Public Health
Nursing Service of the Red Cross.
A brave little army Of nurses has
been widely scattered over vast ter
rain in the South in the best tacti-
cal positions to give the benefit OF
their services not only in personal
way in thousands OF homes entered
by affliction but to extend the bene-
fit of their experience and knowledge
in teaching the basic principles OF
health and hygiene and proper care
of the sick in homes where such
things have been unheard Of.
Everywhere this service has been
installed there have been demands
from neighboring sections for nurse
Soon it must extend to every neigh
borhood of every county or parish in
the South. The roll call respons;
makes this service possible.
And then these nurses form q re.
serve army that can be assembled in!'
mediately in cases Of national Stres:
/ or local calamity. There was no flood
cyclone or fire in the South durinG
