Armistice Day Named
Holiday By Governor

In proclamation issued last
week calling upon the people of
Idaho to fittingly observe Armistice
Day, November IL, Governor G. G.
Moore says:
at is with mingled feelings that
we contemplate the achievements of
November eleventh. We have great
rejoicing for the victory won and
prayers and homage for those who
made the supreme sacrifice at the
same time we should keep in mind
the endeavors of all those who Ia
bored to bring the great war to a
SUCCESSFUL conclusion. With these
thoughts in mind, may we conse-
crate our lives more seriously to the
defense of the ideals of our govern
ment and the combating of those
tendencies which threaten to under
mine it.
Nov, therefore, 1, c. G. Moore,
by virtue of the authority vested in
me as governor do hereby proclaim
Tuesday, November IL, holiday in
the state of Idaho, and do earnestly
recommend that all people, by pub
lie meetings and display of the ma
tional emblem, unite in celebrating
the conclusion of the late conflict"

BINGHAM COUNTY
GOES REPUBLICAN
Stevens Apparently Has
Majority of Thirty
For Sheriff

Reversing results of two years agt
when the Progressives carried Bling
ham county for Samuels by more
than 100 votes, the Republicans car
ried the county Tuesday for the ma
tional and state tickets by over
whelming majorities. Riding on thu
crest of the Republican wave of vic
tory the entire county ticket, with
the exception of sheriff, was elected
by majorities ranging from 400 tc
more than 1000.
Senator William E. Borah rolled
up the record-breaking majority OF
nearly $500 over Frank Martin, the
democratic candidate for United
States senator. Along with Borah
in vote getting honors in the coun-
ty ran Addison T. Smith, congress
man from the second district, whose
plurality will probably be more than
1900 over Shuldberg, the progress
sive candidate, who ran second. Will
son, democrat, had 593
The Republican national ticket
was given plurality of more than
1000, the LaFollette electors run
ming second.
For governor, Moore's plurality
over Samuels will be approximately
200 as against majority polled by
the Progressive candidate two years
ago. Strong Progressive precincts
that two years ago gave Samuels big
majorities this year returned Re-
publican majorities or greatly re-
duced the Progressive lead. Wood
Vile, Wapello, Groveland, Thomas,
Springfield and Sterling, strongly
for Samuels two years ago, returned
to the Republican ranks. Blackfoot,
Shelley and Aberdeen precincts gave
Moore and the Republican state and
county tickets big majorities.
The three commissioners were re-
elected by margins that indicated
the confidence of the people of the
county in their administration of af-
fairs. Hamilton Wright was reflect
ed by majority of 400 or more over
Charles E. Harris, nominee of both
the Progressive and Democratic par
ties, while Margaret Giesbrecht for
county superintendent has a lead of
over 700 over Mrs. Mabel Felt, also
named by both Democrats and Pro-
gressives. Margaret Ward will pro-
badly lead the county ticket in the
size of majorities, having more than
1000 over the vote given George r.
Bailey, Progressive.
A. B. Stephens, Democrat, is pro-
badly elected sheriff over T. P.
Fackrell, Republican, by small ma
jority. Unofficial returns from all
precincts except Willow Creek give
Stephens a lead of thirty votes, and
it is reported that the Willow Creek
vote, which is small, is about even
ly divided between the two candi-
dates.
The county commissioners will
meet Friday, November 7, to start
to canvass the votes.

THANKSGIVING MESSAGE
\ROM IDAHO REPUBLICAN

mex Aor of this little paper
wou A1 to call on each of the
subscH and talk to him about
the COZ tions of business relating
to the Aer, but such a large per-
centage of them are away from
home each day it seems impractical
to do a thorough job that way. We
can hire some extra help and send
out statement of each ones &C
count, and that costs lot of money
for help, for stationery and for post
age. Here is a plan that is better
adapted to hard times than either
of the others:
If your paper is paid up to date or
in advance, you ought to be happy
reader, made happy every time you
pick up the paper, knowing that it
is paid for. If your paper is in ar
rears you ought to be moderately
happy at having it delivered right
along and leaving it to you to pay
as soon as you can.
If your paper is in arrears a good
while, it is urgent that you make a
payment of what you can afford to.
Some of our subscribers who get be-
hind a good while, eventually get
some money together and set 1t
ahead as far as it has been behind,
and say turn-about is fair play, and
we quite agree. Some who cannot
do that, pay it up to date, and some
who are unable to do that much, pay
a dollar or two or year or two and
give US smile and a promise re-
garding the balance. That's fine.
That's good team work and does
not involve any waste expenses.
We are trying like you are to make
ends meet, and we are grateful for
your giving sincere attention to your
annual dues. Our little old paper
isn't the best one in the world, but it
is as good as we can make it each
week and there are worse ones.
You probably know about how
your own account stands. The
label shows you every week when 1t
is paid to. If it is worn so that you
cannot read it, it is time you were
making a payment so we will cast
your address new and plain. The
right hand figures show the year it
is paid to and that is the main thing.
November is an awful1y good
month to make a subscription pay
ment.

NEWS FROM THE GIFT SHOP

This week brought us several new
shipments of pottery of different
kinds and If space permitted we
would love to tell you about them.
OF all the arts the art of pottery
making seems quite the most inter-
esting, perhaps because it is the very
Oldest of all the arts and perhaps
because it is an art that was born of
absolute necessity, either way how
ever there is an indescribable charm
about bit of good pottery. The
world famous Van Brfggle pottery
AS you remember is truly a west
ern product, being made in Colorado
Springs. It's tones are beautiful
ry-shaded-to-blue and tur-
uuoise-shaded-to-d ark-blue. A piece
of Van Briggle pottery may be
either a classic ornament or a pleas
ingly harmonious flower holder.
Cliftwood art pottery while not ex-
pensive at all is very alluring. 1t
comes in a soft blue black, a brown
ish yellow, a mulberry, deep blue
blending into lovely old rose and
many other color combinations that
makes this very appealing pottery.
Then there are the Indian and Mexi-
can pottery whose quaint shapes and
soft colorings are truly charming.
Saturday nights free gift, Novem-
Der 18th, will be an interesting
piece of pottery, beautiful orange
bowl and insert on soft blue black
pottery base Be sure to ask for
your tickets. The Gift Shop.

Women Governors Are
Elected in Two States

Returns indicate that in two
states women candidates for govern
or have been elected. In Texas the
voters elected INA" Ferguson, as
was generally expected, and in Wyo-
ming, Mrs. Nellie Ross, widow of the
late Governor Ross, appears to have
been elected on the democratic tic
ket to fill out the unexpired term
of her husband. Governor Ross
was elected two years ago for a
four year term and died a few weeks
ago, necessitating special election
to fill the vacancy. Should Mrs.
Ross take office Immediately, she
will become the first women govern
or in the history of the nation. 1t
is recalled in connection with the
election Of Mrs. Ross that Wyoming
was the first state to grant the right
of suffrage to women citizens and
the first state in which a city gov
eminent was conducted entirely by
women officials.

Moore Carries Bingham
County By Margin OF
Seven Hundred
DEMOCRATS LAST

With the entire Republican ma
tional, congressional, judicial and
state ticket reelected in Idaho, it
now appears to be but a matter of
final totals. President Calvin Cool
idge and Charles G. Dawes swept
the state. But the standard-bearer
in the fight was United States Sem
ator William E. Borah, who is easily
leading all Republican candidates
in the victorious march. His plur-
ality will be well up in the neigh
borhood of $4,000.

Samuels carried Canyon county
by plurality of 1900. He also car
ried Freehafer's home county, Pay
cite, together with Gem county,
Gooding county, Lincoln county.
Lewis county, Minidoka, Power and
Valley counties by small margins.
Moore's plurality is more likely to
grow rather than diminish in the

COMMERCE CLUB
TO OUTLINE PLANS
Meeting Monday Night
Will Decide Program
For Next Year

On Monday evening the chamber
of commerce will hold an important
meeting for several purposes. A
number of speakers will be present
to discuss things about to be under
taken, and all the people concerned
with local events are invited to be
present to suggest things which they
wish the organization to take hold
of. There is now under considera-
ton the holding of some meetings
in the country to carry what are
considered some valuable matters
to the farmers and stockmen.
Things accomplished by our par
ticipation at the national dairy show
are coming up to be acted upon-a
visit from H. F. Laabs and C. A.
Voight, projectors of the cheese fac
tories in this part of Idaho, will pay
us visit and bring with them some
lions affecting the cheese and dairy
business already in operation here.
G. G. Gignoux of the Union Pacific is
on his way to Idaho with one of the
foremost Holstein breeders of
present at this meeting. Some of
IHS DlS Il0u WuO NlSlJ0Q IuduO Will
the dairy excursion two years ago
who have been working with us ever
since, have been instrumental in
getting this new man to come to
Idaho to look us over. He wants to
spend a day here to mix with our
farmers and business men besides
going out to look at our stacks of
alfalfa and the resources that are
responsible for the products exhib-
tied at the national dairy show. e,
Arrangements have been made
for having some delegates here from
Bonneville county to give us re-
port on things as they saw them at
the dairy show and point out Idahos
interest and connections or possible
and the way to make
the best use of them. Carl John
son, one of the best practical dairy
men of eastern Idaho, will be pres
ent to give his views after studying
the business both here and at the
dairy show and among the Wiscon-|
sin farms.
This is the first monthly meeting
the adjournment for the
summer, and many questions of pol
Icy will be open for discussion. Dur

Memorial Drive Starts
Armistice Day; Stores
And Banks Will Close

Tuesday, November II has been
proclaimed a holiday by Governor
Moore in observance of Armistice
Day and the banks and all stores in
Blackfoot will be closed on that day.
The day will also mark the begin
ming of the drive for funds for the
erection of a memorial to Idaho's
soldier dead and those in charge of
the movement have offered the sug-
gestfon that those who plan to con-
tribute to this movement arrange SO
that the fact of the banks being
closed on that day may not inter-
fere with their desire to cooperate
in the enterprise.
