BORAKS ACTION
WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT
SAYS IDAHO SENATOR WILL
OPPOSE PARTY PLATFORM
MAY STUMP" STATE THIS FALL
Is In Favor of State Wide Primary
Law.

What will be the attitude OF Borah
on his return TO Idaho, which return
is expected soon? There have been
limitations published and stated that
Senator Borah on his return viii take
the stump throughout the state, OPP
posed TO his party platform and OPP
posed to those legislative candidates
who stand on that platform pledged
to the convention system.
The Washington correspondent in
his article states:
Senator William E. Borah of Idaho,
probably the most conspicuous repub-
lican senator, is going home to fight
his own party and to do it tooth and
nail.
Because the republican party in his
state, with which he has always been
affiliated since he has been in public
life, has repealed the primary election
law and has declared in its party plat
form this year against its re-enact-
ment, Senator Borah is going to cam
paign Idaho for the election of can
didates to the state legislature who
will vote to put the primary back on
the statute books
Two other parties, the democratic
and h e progressive, have declared
for re-enactment OF the Idaho primary
law, hut it is feared by Senator Bor-
abs supporters that such a division
in the primary vote will leave the
present reactionary wing of the re-
publican party in control of the state
legislature
With a convention selecting a SEN
atorial candidate two years hence,
Borah is certain he would stand little
show if the big interests OF the state.
who hate him. controlled the legisla-
ture. He is convinced in his own
mind that his only chance in that
state is through vote of the people,
as recorded in the primary.
Not only will the fiery westerner at
tack the action of the republican party
in Idaho. but he will be in the posi-
tion of attacking the republican party
nationally. This is due to the fact
that he intends to justify on the stump
his action in voting against the newly
enacted republican tariff law, and his
votes against hiehlv protective duties
on the most important industries in
his state, such as wool and su@ar. He
will defend his course in fighting to
the limit Of his ability the enactment

Big interests in the state are out to
get Borah because he couldn't be
handled If Borah had surrendered
on the tariff and gone as these in
terests desired they likely would have
declared truce. But when he re-
fused to go down the line for meas
ures he regarded as inimical to the
country as a whole, like the tariff
the war was on.
Knowing that they could not pos
sibly expect to beat Borah by a pri-
mary vote, they are seeking to elect a

re-enact the primary. The struggle

turesque the country has witnessed

be here for the races but he needs
more entries to make the races a real
success. Two more entries are needed
in the relay race, one more in the free
for all race, two more in the pony
race and there should be at least three
more entries in the derby race. The
race track should be in finest condi-

SAME OLD RoBBER TARIFF

The new Republican tariff 1bill will
create about $3.50, 100000 revenue,
will add several dollars per capita to
the tax burdens of our people, and,
according to the analysis made by
Washington representatives of the
metropolitan papers, the cost of living
will be considerably increased.
And no man can tell how much ac-
tual revenue will accrue to the gov
eminent.
The burden will fall on the customer
who always pays the tax, and not up
on imports, for the reason that manu-
facturers are protected against for
eign made goods to the extent Of tax
schedules.
Farm products are also offered con-
siderable protection but this will be
of little benefit to the producer accord
ing to reports, and is merely sop
thrown to the agricultural interests in
order to blind the public to the ex-
tortionate provisions in the bill, re-
lating to foreign manufactured goods.
The farmer needs first of all a
world market for his products, not a
tariff, and when he finds that every
thing he buys is far higher in proper
ton to his own share Of the artificial
ly stimulated property, when he sees
the old Payne-Aldrich tariff working
true to form, he will be hard to con-

jefferson City, Mo-, July 10.-Five
million dollars is lost yearly by the
people of Missouri and the farmers
of st. Francois celnty are losing their
part Of this vast sum- Our loss can
be stopped. This loss is caused by
producers not knowing how to proper
ly grade and market their eggs. Com
mission men find it very profitable to
grade the eggs they have purchased
from farmers.
The State Marketing Bureau has
several expert egg graders in the field
instructing farm folks how to grade
their eggs so that the producer may
realize the very best market price for
that product.
Any produce dealer can secure the
services of some Of these expert grad
ers by making application to Arthur
T. Nelson, of the State Marketing
Bureau. This service is free and
meetings will be held at places where
interest in the matter justifies. Every
produce dealer owes it to his trade to
secure these experts for demonstra-
tions and conferences and an early
application should be made as the
services of the men employed will be
in demand from all sections of the
state. If one of these meetings is
held near you, and you either sell or
buy eggs, it is certainly to your adj
vantage to attend the meeting. /.
