at each meeting the tax receipts are
read by the speaker showing the total
tax paid and the small part that goes
to the entire state government, includ-
ing the state institutions, both educa-
tional, charitable and penal, and all
other state expenses. The percentage
of the amount going to the state varies
in various cities according to local
'Ievies, but ranges from per cent to
10 per cent. In the country districts
where the local levies do not contain
school district or city levies the per-
centage of the total amount going to
the state is larger than in the towns
for the reason that the state levy
claims the same everywhere, while the
amount may be larger or smaller,
which would make the states percent
age vary. The Republican speakers
in North Idaho, as in other parts of
the state, are explaining the tax mat
ter in detail from the tax receipts,
from charts, and from the printed sta
tistics of all taxes collected for every
purpose as printed in the Boise States
man in tabulated form on July 9,
1922, for the tax year 1922.
The other issues of the campaign
seem of minor importance to the vot-
ers in North Idaho.

Bible Verse Called "code."

Owing to the ruling Of the signal
corps, United States army, that code
messages will not be accepted for
transmission over the cable to Alaska,
a telegraph clerk recently refused to
take message for Nome which read ::
'"Third Epistle of John, verses 13 and
IA" The sender said he figured he
could get his message in the limit Of
the ten-word special rate, the dispatch
being designed to notify his son that
he would soon arrive in Alaska.

words: II have many things to write,
but will not with ink and pen write
unto thee, but I trust l shall shortly

BOISE, Oct. 30-Seats have been
placed on sale for the Idaho-Utah

In connection with this announce

reservations early for the choicest
seats, but those who want to watch
the game standing on the Sidelines1
and there are many who won't be hap
ply with anything else-will have to
be at the gates early on the day of
the game" The game is to be played
this year at Cody Park, Bosses old
baseball grounds on Warm Springs
Avenue. Though a natural theatre,
the park has lacked sufficient stands
and bleachers for such crowds as at
tend the Armistice Day game, and
there was time this fall to construct
only one new section 265 feet in length
The old bleachers, lining one side of
the gridiron, are only four tiers in
| height.
There will be 1000 very choice
Seats" said Mr.. Gibson, and 2l00
other reserved seats, some of which
are very good and others not SO good
And because the old style bleachers
cover so much ground, good standing
room will be scarce.
For this reason we have made all
reserved seats and all standing room
the same price, $3.50 Early reser.

Republican Will Carry
Every County But One,
Predicts Attorney Cen
eral, Home from North.
(By ROY l.. BLACK.)


BOISE-Moore will carry the ten
northern counties with majority of
from 5000 to 5000. | predict he will
carry every county in North Idaho
with one possible exception, that be-
ing Lewis county, where the three
parties are all claiming the county and
it will be very close In talking with
laymen, farmers, and the common peo-
pie, as we'll as with Republicans from
various communities l seldom find a
Republican who is not going to vote
the Republican ticket, but it is an
every day occurance to find many
Democrats who are not going to sup
port Alexander, but who are openly
against him. A great many OF the
regular Democrats who have hereto
fore been the wheel-horses working
hard for the state Democratic ticket
are not in evidence this time in any
work for the state Democratic ticket,
and either are keeping still so far as
outward appearances are concerned or
are openly opposing Alexander.
The voters have been attending in
large numbers from all political par
ties the several Republican rallies and
meetings in the ten northern coun
ties, and the one subject uppermost
in their minds is the state government
and the question of taxes. When it is
shown to their satisfaction that the
cabinet form of government is not
what they have been lead to believe
it was, but on the contrary was simply
the Encouragement of work already
carried on in the state government
by boards and commissions by sub
stituting for such boards and COM
missions individuals to handle the ad
ministrative detail work, they are per-
fectly satisfied with the change In
each audience the question is always
asked of those present regardless of
political affiliations, as to whether they
would be willing to re-establish the old
boards and commissions handling GER
tain of the state business has any one
suggested that that should be done;
and, on the contrary, many Demo
gratis express openly that they believe
the system will not be changed by
any governor regardless of party.
Alexander Wanted Change.
Many who have heard Mr.. Alex
ander's speeches and have heard him
berate the cabinet form of government,
are agreeably surprised when the Re-
publican speakers quote to them the
recommendation for a cabinet form
of government which was made by
Mr. Alexander in his message to the
legislature in 1917, which message is
found in the House Journals of the
legislature under date of January 10
1917, at page 16 of the Journal.
They are also pleased and satisfied
that the state is not the cause of the
great burden of taxes when the levie.
for all purposes for 1922 are shown
them. Each Republican speaker dis
tributes turnout the audience mime
ographed sheet of paper which ha
upon it the tax levies for 1922 for thu
city where the speech is being mad,
and also shows how the money leviet
for the state is apportioned to it
various purposes. The Republican
slogan thru North Idaho is, bring
your tax receipts to the meeting" ant

Ford's Hat Formally Put
in Ring of Presidential Race
Party Government Bunk to Him, He
Runs as Free Lance

Observation-Disclosures Wash
ington takes cognizAnce today of the
fact that Henry. Ford is candidate
for the presidency of the United States
Ford headquarters have been opened
in Chicago For the first time the
picture. of the manufacturer appears in
newspaper advertisements throughout
the country. His issue will be Mus.
Gle Shoals, specific instance of the
Republican party's unwillingness or
inability to legislate Gin the interest of
the people against the dictates of mas
tiers of big business"
Ford is running, neither as Demo-
crat nor Republican. He entered
both the primaries in Michigan when
he aspired to seat in the Senate.
Party government like history is all
bunk" to Ford and Party rectitude is
anathema to hin-like the Jew, it is
said.
Both Democratic and Republican
headquarters in Washington have heard
that Ford will offer as the friend of
the people, as one who has always
bucked the trusts, as one who having
grown rich, desires to divide his mon
ey with those who have none.
Circumstances not Ordinary
Under ordinary circumstances, both
Democrats and Republican headquar-
tiers would scott at Ford's plan to 'fliv-
verlze the government just as they scot
at his financial scheme of issuing cur
rency with natural resources, such as
Muscle Shoals, rather than gold as a
basis. But the circumstances are not
ordinary. Politically, they are revolt
tlonary, and it is known that Ford has
acquired hold on the imagination of
the people. 1t is known that many of
the people farmers and laborers, believe
that he could do with Government lust
as he has done with the automobile.
So old strategists OF both parties do
not scott. They are indulging pas
sion of watchfdl waiting. The third
party bugaboo has not lost its terror
for the Republicans, and the Demo-
Gratis are uncertain whether a candi-
dacy for Ford would aid or hurt them.
