MO man or woman in Gem county

dates you wish to see nominated. but
II you 20 and do your best to get the
risht kind Of candidates you ut least
will have the satisfaction Of knowing
that you did your duty. Our state
government may fall. To be sure 1t
also may fail even II every man and
woman In Idaho does his or her full
duty, but II Is certain to fail II the
best men and women in the country
generally fail to do their duty Our
government, whether national, state
or local. Is never what 1t ought to be,
but 1t might be great deal worse
and will be II the good, honest peo-
pie Of the country neglect TO do their
duty and take part in the selection
Of candidates to All the Offices. And
remember this; The worse govern
ment you have the more you will suf-
fer, and furthermore the best citizens
are the worst hurt by corrupt, ineffi-
cient and extravagant government. II
you could escape the consequences Of
bad government by refusing to take
part in primaries and elections you
might be excused for doing so, but
you cannot escape the consequences
that way. Then, too, the interest OF
your state and county ought to be
paramount to the ambition OF any
man. Vote as your conscience and
best judgment may dictate, but go

WHATEVER may be the outcome Of
the present strike, It is supply.
ing abundant evidence to prove that
no public utility strike Is ever justih'
able, and that the strike rs weapon
to enforce industrial justice is obso-
lete, futile and entitled only to public
execration. 1t may be taken for
granted that there Is not = labor

scious Of an economic pinch. and i

dition Of men individually and collec-

to halt. Every industry is 80 inter-
related with every other industry
that the whole industrial process Of
the world is an endless chain Of one
person or group paying another per
son or group. The railway owners pay
the shop men, the shop men pay the
vrocers, the grocers pay the manu-
Iacturers, the ni.T.G. e = S..;.=-s. nay the
producers, and in some degree all
these pay the railroads. Industry Is
made up Of circles OF that kind, and

vast circle Of one man serving an

One Of the most oppressed groups in
the country today is the agricultural
group. Man for man and wage for
wage, they are the poorest paid peo-
pie in the country, and the agricul-
tural industry is beset with the
greatest degree Of risk. Suppose the
agricultural group should stand out
for compensation that would equal
