were his implements and he was al
ways demanding more money or
bringing something to happen that
would cause men to pour more
money into the treasury. He said
that when money was not coming in
at good rate, and this was in the
record Of the Harry Orchard trial at
Boise, he made plans for somebody
to raise he'll some place and start
a great excitement and that got a
fresh flow of money into the treas
ury. The instruments he used were
assassination, bombing, and other
outrages, and Harry Orchards ar
rest and conviction at Caldwell and
Boise, and his sentence to be con-
fined in the Idaho penetentiary for
life were the outcome of Haywood's
operations.
Harry Orchard is still in the pene-
Tertiary and so far as Haywood is
concerned the chickens have come
home to roost. He is reaping what
he has been sowing all his life. The
agitators are agitating against him;
trickery and sabotage are being
practiced against him and now after

body seems to know what, If any
thing, has been accomplished at the
meeting. It has been series of de-
lays and disappointments, one round
of expenses without getting any
thing done and without production
of any kind. 1t has been a series of
hardship for all. When the Ameri-
cans and others arrived in Petrograd
and were ready to be forwarded,
they were shipped in box cars across
those great plains thousands of
miles to the Ural Mountains. When
they arrived at the coal mines or the

they found only dirty, miserable
shacks or houses to live in, every
thing in need of repairs and only
the simplest of food to live on, bar

articles of food. One of the sources
Of, delay in getting construction

did everything they could to keep
the Americans from going to work.
They invoked whatever rules they
could to bar them out, system of
censorship was employed so that all
of the incoming mail was inspected
and all of the outgoing mail was in
spected and censored.
Bill Haywood has spent his life
agitating and opposing the plans of
men who were trying to accomplish
something, and now it is coming
home to him. He has spent his life
in demanding better working condi-
lions and pointing out the evils or
alleged evils of the working man s
condition, spent his time lecturing
and addressing laboring men and
arousing discomfort among them,
seeking to magnify their hardships
and to make their blessings and adj
vantages look as small as possible.
Wherever Bill Haywood has gone
he has spread discomfort and en-
couraged men to do less for the
money they were receiving. He has
taught men to practice sabotage
which is hindering production by
every means possible while yet ac-
cepting wages by those whom he was
supposed to serve. In building up

A CAMPAIGN OF
HALF TRUTH

Lester Harrison, the Democratic
candidate for attorney general, ad-
dressing Blackfoot audience Fri
day evening, referred to Republican
candidates as making campaign of
juggling figures to reveal half
truths. and then plunged into a sim
liar TRADE himself.
According to our understanding
he juggled and misrepresented by
presenting part Of the subject and
by ridicule deceived his audience or
those members of the audinc who
did not happen to know better. One
of the subjects of his jests was that
he termed the prize-fghting depart
ment of the state government, as If
there was such departmnt main
taind by the taxpayers, and as if the
Republican party were to blame for
it. The fact of the case is that there
is statute providing that if anyone
desires to put on prize fight or
boxing match in Idaho, he must OBJ
tain a license and pay fee for it,
and the statute makes it the duty
of an office in the state house to re-
ceive such fee and issue the license

BILL HAYWOOD FINDS
HIS OWN


When Bill Haywood, convicted I
w. w. leader, left the United States
to escape prison service and for.
feited his bond, there was sense OF
disappointment among the Ameri-
cans. When he turned up in Russia
it was truly admitted that he had
gotten among an element that was
very much like what he had been
cultivating. In the chaotic condi-
lions existing there was room for
hope that he might exercise his con-
structive ability, If he had any, and
make something out of the existing
chaos. 8
1t was later reported that he had
been given some kind Of concession
to operate the richest coal mines in
all that country and perhaps the
richest in all the world, situated east
Of the Ural Mountains in Siberia.
In another direction not far away
we're great steel mills. and iron
mines, and it now appears that he
and his associates from the United
States and Russia had concession
or a promise of a concession to oper-
ate the coal and iron mines, and on
the basis Of this great wealth, it was
hoped to rebuild Russia.
Bill Haywood had his dreams
about what he could accomplish II
he had the right working conditions
and surely here was an opportunity
for him to prove to the world that
his theories of labor and capital
have some merit. Russia had am
billions to lay out the plans by which
to operate the labor forces of the
world and from their palace at
Moscow dictate those to the world.
He worked thru his connections to
that office, and had the opportunity
to select his associates anywhere he
wanted them and thirty engineers
and experts from the United States
left for that country In April
seventy more of them started for the
Haywood colony; during the spring
and early summer still larger groups
Of l. W. w. leaders and engineers
shipped for that country.
Reports coming out now, indicate
way over acted about like the Ford |
peace commission did ON the King
Oscar the Second, crossing the
Atlantic to get the boys out of the
trenches by stopping the war in the
year 1915. They say it was a con-
tinual argument and row from the
Statute of Liberty to the Ural
Mountains. Everybody had an argu-
,ment, everybody was criticizing
somebody else, everybody aspired to
leadership and everybody was sore
because they were not following his
suggestions and advice. Some Of
the engineers who were full Of ideas
Of construction were disappointed in
their associates and said that no.
body ever talked Of how to accom-
pIish things, it was all political
harangue. Nobody seemed to think
that he was the one that was to do
things, but rather that he was the
sae to tell the others what should be
lone. s
1t is reported that when Haywood,
he great leader, addressed one OF
hese delegations at Moscow, the
irst thing he asked them after
,reeting them was whether they L;
rought any money along with
hem. In all his operations and
ipIomatic work he has been con-
family handicapped by opposition
other agitators. Whatever he

connection with other duties and it
does not add to the tax bill, but
rather reduces it by the amount of
the fees paid.

UNITED STATES NOT GREAT7
In a Spiritual Senss, According to Magazine Writer, Country Does
 Not Rank High.

Are the people of the United States truly great? Great we are in material things; great fin world power. But what when, like the other great pO- litical entities of the past, our na- tion, too, ''gOes vest? What will have been our national contribution to the sum total of human happiness, which, in the last analysis means spiritual" happineSs? asks Lindsey BIayney in the North American Review. With the eyes of the world centered upon us, the mighty colossus of mod ern political history, can we point to any nOnmaterial achievement which will be termed by a grateful poster ity the spiritual beQuest of the United States of America to the sum total of highest human good? In
 art, literature, law and science our achievements, while cOmmendable, have not been outstanding. In none of these fields of human endeavOr have we assisted man to take a great On- ward and upward step on the slow and tOilsOme journey toward his ultimate destiny in none of these departments have we given to man spiritual as- set which will go far toward lifting him above the commonplace realities and sOrdid selfishness Of everyday life. In a wOrd the highest idealism of the United States has not yet expressed itself in immortal terms in any or these fields.
