MIR. sAMUELs OPTIMISTIC.

Mr. Samuels. Progressive Candi-

on his way from Idaho Falls to Poca-

evening. Mr.. SamueYs expressed him
self as very hopeful over the chances
of the Progressive ticket next Tues
day. %
During the past two months have
been all over the state" said Mr.. Sam
uels, land have held meetings in Al
counties. They have been largely at
tended, and last night at Idaho Falls
had one of the largest meeting any

Progressive party as the only one that
promises them any real relief from
the heavy burden of taxation"

THE FARM VOTE.

Bingham County has no large towns
or industrial centers and the farmers
constitute majority of the voters.
There is very little of the foreign
element in the county, which is easily
Influenced by specious arguments and
glittering promises. Farmers consti7
tute the most conservative element in
the country. and as they comprise
about one-third of the voters of the
nation there is no danger of any wide
spread revolutionary movement, or
the overturning Of the democratic In
stitutions of our country. Sporadic
experiments in socialism may be tried
in a few places at various times, as
has been done in North Dakota, but
they are not really dangerous. They
are generally costly, and bring their
own remedy. A reading public like
there is in the United States quickly
becomes acquainted with the results
of such experiments and looks else
where for remedies for the industrial
and political ills from which they
suffer.
Cooperation among farmers affords
the surest means of correcting many
of the evils from which they suffer
Cooperation in production, in ware
housing, in marketing, in affording
credit for each other, and even in
manufacturing.

When it comes to our county Off
GERS they should be elected upon their
records. 1t is just as sensible to vote
for candidates because they are re-
publicans or democrats as it would
to vote for them because some are
bald headed and some have plenty of
hair. Administering the county bust
ness is just the same as conducting
any other business. except that it is
bigger.
Efficiency and honesty are the only
tests private business applies to it's
employees. Judged by these tests
our present county officers cannot be
improved upon. They have been eff
cient, honest, have exercised the
greatest economy, and added to this
they have experience, an asset of great
value which new set of officers
would not have. If any honest crit
icism has been made of their admin
istration it has not been made public.

So far as our representatives to
Congress are concerned an attempt
has been made to eject H. B. No. II
into the campaign. but this is an issue
as dead as the bill Itself It carries
with it the insinuation that the whole
Idaho delegation with the Secretaries
of Agriculture and the Interior were
crooked; that our representatives had
some other interests to serve than
that of the people of Idaho and their
own political future.
The same can be said of any other
bills for which their votes have been
criticized. We cannot believe they
had any other interest to serve than
that of their constituents. These bills
were considered in committee and dis
cussed In the house, and those who
participated in and took part In these
discussions had much fuller oppor-
tunity of knowing about them from
every angle than any of their critics.
A democratic member from Idaho to
a republican congress would be more
Of an obstruction than a help to the
state.

THE FINAL ROUNDUP.

Next Tuesday the people will rem
der their verdict at the polls and we
will know who is to govern the state
Of Idaho and Bingham County for the
next two years. It has been a siren
nous campaign for all the candidates,
and the most exciting one Idaho has
seen for many years, and 1t is prob
able that large vote will be polled
A good deal of personalities have
been injected into it by some Of the
speakers and many of the newspapers.
Charges and counver-charges have
been exchanged, and all the chndi-
dates know that taxes and expenses
must be reduced. Few except par
tisans will believe that Mr.. Alexander
is as black as he has been painted by
some Of his opponents, or the present
administration, as disreputable as II
has been pictured by some Jealous
campaigners.
But the present administration is
not on trial. Mr.. Moore and an en-
tirely new set of state officers and a
new legislature are the candidates

he says he will cooperate with the

which makes the appropriations, and

FOR TREASURER.

Margaret Ward is running for re-
election on the Republican Ticket, for
County Treasurer.
The past two years being her first
term she has made an excellent re-
cord, by trying to please the public,
and has conducted her office in an eff
ficient manner.
Mrs. Ward has had warrant calls
whenever money was available in the
funds to stop the interest from &C
cumulating She has kept the ex-
penses down notwithstanding the ex-
ira work being transferred to the
Treasurer's office. The main item on
the expense list being the posting ma
chine which enables her to show
daily balances on County Funds as
we'll as School Districts; something
no other Treasurer was able to do.
There should be no reason why Mar
garet Ward should not receive your
vote on November 7th.

Lloyd George, who has been at the
head of the coalatiUn government in
England during the last three years
of the war and the four years Of
peace, has resigned because the con-
servative members Of his government
refused longer to support him. Dis
satisfaction with his Near East pol
icy seems to have been the chief rea-
son for his downfall. Bonner Law,
head of the Unionist, or Conservative
party, has been called upon to or
ganize the government and has Sc
lected his cabinet. A general cleo
ton is called for next month There
are five parties in the field and it is
very doubtful If the Conservatives will
get a working majority, and they also
may be forced to organize coalation
government. Lloyd George will I'M
doubtedly be elected by the Liberals
in one Of the constituencies and will
very likely continue to be leading
figure in the new government.

| It is a favorite argument with the
radicals that few corporations con-
troll the industries Of the country, and
a few banks it's financial interests.
The inference is that a few people
control them. but the inference is en-
tirely wrong. Both the corporations
lions Of stockholders, and the small
stockholders far outnumber the large
ones The interest Of the man who
has 800 or $500 or $1,000 invested in
an industry or bank is Just as i'm
portant to him as the $50, 900 or $780,
900 the large stakeholder has invest
ed. He is as much interested in see
ing that legislation does not in1ure
or reduce the value Of his investment
as the large stakeholder is. For in
stance the Northern Pacific Railway
has more stockholders than employees
Why should they not have as much
consideration as the employees? The
Pennsylvania Railway has $4,000
stockholders, the great Steel Corpor-
0tlOA AV6 ,VUU i ucE0 arc between
eighteen and twenty million holders
|of Liberty bonds, and It is safe to say
there are as many investors in cor
porations Of various kinds. Coming
nearer home there are thousands Of
small investors in Utah Idaho sugar
stock. in the Idaho Power Co., the
Utah Light and Traction Co., and the
Street Car Co. Probably there is
hardly an employee in these corpor-
atfons with any money to invest who
is not stakeholder. The directors
and managers Of these corporations
couldn't hold their jobs If they did
not give mighty good reason for
not making the enterprises they are
running pay dividends to their thou
sands Of stockholders. They are wise
in employing able attorneys to- see
that their business is not ruined or
injured by fool legislation enacted by
men who are down on corporations"

JUDGE ADAIR'S RECORD
IRREPROACHABLE


With the coming Of election day
we believe that a word at this time
in behalf of Judge Adair, Candidate
for District Judge Of the Sixth Judi
cial District, is timely and well de-
served.
During Judge Adair's occupancy of
the bench in Bingham County, we
have yet to see where any partiality
has been shown. He is honest in his
convictions, steadfast in his decisions
the unquestioned possessor of a
broad and judicial mind. ALWAYS
courteous and always conscientiously
endeavoring to be just and fair, he
has gained not only the friendship
but the sincere admiration of a host
of friends who will be glad of the
opportunity next Tuesday to show
him he is appreciated.
His opponents have insinuated
throughout the county that he is a
part of a legal combine. We, in this
county know this to be without just
ification for it has been demonstrated
by his Honor, time and again, in the
Court Room at Challis, that such is
not the case. Even If such were the
case, then it would probably be jump
ing out of the frying pan into the fire.
We ask the voter rust what are the
qualifications demanded in a Judge?
And we answer:
Common sense; common conscience;
uncommon, backbone and a larger,
free and broad spirit of humanitar-
ianism--the spirit Of the twentieth
century. All these qualifications are
found in Judge Ralph w. Adair.
Judge Adair has, in the cases held
in this county, always demanded that
the burden of proof rest upon the &C
cuser, not upon the accused--the poor
unfortunates whom the stream of life
has sucked into whirlpool Of wrong
doing in being hailed into Court have
in every instance we believe, been
given a fair and impartial trial. At
least Judge Adair has always been
firm in his demands that every rea-
sonable doubt as to their innocence
shall have been swept aside.
III COuuuCClu6 IAC OuSAAO0o VI tAC
District Court Judge Adair has always
endeavored to handle it's affairs in
the cheapest and most expeditions
way possible and in view Of all these
things the people of Custer County
will, we believe, give him handsome
majority at the polls next Tuesday.
There should be no partisanship in
the matter Of judges. Who ever heard
of Republican justice or Democratic
justice?
OF course, the people elect the
Judge, but he has the last word.
The Legislature makes the laws
and the Judge interprets them.
Therefore, the voter should remem-
Der that in view of a judges tremen-
dous power, the ability, the honesty
and the integrity of candidate for
Judge is a great factor in his quail
'fications and should be one Of the
first considerations in choosing him.

MAKING HIS FARM PAY.

A farmer down in Franklin County
pay. He rented 40 acres of land for
$50 per acre per year. He put seven
acres into watermelons and during
the summer sold as high as $50 worth
in a day. He sold them at first for
15c each, then reduced the price to
1Oc. When these were gone he sold
winter melons which were piled up in
a booth alongside the road. Towns
folk, tourists, tramps and neighbors
laid in a winters supply. At the end
of the season he had gross profit
of 81, 400 from those seven acres.
On the 80 acres left he had house,
barn and small yard. Four cows oc-
cupied the barn and furnished the
family with milk and butter and sup
piled restaurant in town. 300
chickens furnished eggs for the family
and to sell. He had enough alfalfa
and grain for his stock and -four for
his family. He put in three acres to
onions and sells them in his booth
and in town, and expects to clear up
$500 from them. He has four acres
in sugar beets which are running
about 20 tons to the acre. which will
yield him $440. From five acres of
potatoes he got about 1000 sacks,
which adds $3.50 to his receipts. Other
attractions in his booth are carrots,
cabbage, parsnips, squash, corn and
cantaloups, all of which are paying
crops. He hasn't yet figured out his
total. but will probably be able to
pay his taxes, his rent and have q
nice little balance in the bank

GRAIN AND POTATO MARKET.

houses are full, the Potato Growers
Association here having the local
warehouse of 120 cars, filled to ca
pacity. also the ones at Whpello and
Collins of 60 cars capacity each. The
cold weather has made it unsafe to
ship in box cars, except at shippers
risk, and refrigerator cars are still
scarce. .ts
Open cars for sugar beets are also
becoming scarcer, as there is larger
movement of coal with colder weather.
Trainloads of beets ARE going through
every day to Idaho Falls factory, but
a great many beets are being dumped
at the loading stations until more cars
are available. A few cars of cattle
and sheep have been shipped to Los
