DEFEAT OF c. 0. P.
Declares "Resurrection Of
Will Come Next Tuesday.
!: Great Idea. of Peace"

I'm 1920 we saw the crucifixi ion Of
great idea of peace and next Tues
day We shall witness the resurrec-
tion," declared Joseph P. Tumulty
last evening before the final campaign
meeting of the Mcdonald Washing
ton Blackburn Democratic club at
S3l5 Massachusetts avenue. Special
guests were the New York State So
ciety and Maryland State Society.
Referring to the closing years OF
Woodrow Wilson's life, Mr.. Tumulty
said: The Republican party. which
showed no chivalry in those days to-
ward our stricken leader, now cries
in this campaign, DO not treat us
Rough"
John Ritchie. jr., cousin Of the
Maryland governor, also a guest anG
speaker, said:
with one exception, John w. Davis
is the ablest man who has been Of
fered for the presidency since my
memory runs. That one exception,
Woodrow Wilson. was man with
whom John Davis worked shoulder to
shoulder.
Il believe Coolidge is unswervingIy
honest" he said, but the proper basis
to estimate his service Is to point to
his record. There is not single is
sue on which he and his Congress
nave Deen III accord. w nat DeHelit is
his administration to the country If
he cannot lead Congress-"
Mrs. William Atherton Du Puy said:
''The silent man in the White House
is going to lose the silent vote when
the people go to the polls Tuesday
and vote for Davis. This silent vote
includes the farmers, who are turn
ing toward him for leadership, and
those represented in the great swing
of labor, which belongs in the Demo-
cratic party"
Carter b. keene praised the work
for the party that had been done by
Mrs. Moran, and hailed as significant
the turning of New York labor to the
Democratic party. IF these pre-
liminary polls are accurate" he
asked, why is it necessary to raise
$4,000, 900 and today to send out a
call for more money for the Repub-
licans?"
Mrs. Blair Banister, sister of Sena-
tor Glass. recited an original political
poem She thanked Mrs. Moran and
her club for the financial and inspira-
tional aid it had rendered the Demo-
cratic party.
Other speakers were Joseph V. Nor
gan. historian of the Maryland State
Society, and d. a. Edwards of Mich

Mr. POSTMASTER and Neighbors:
l just can't afford to tell you for
fear the story will get down in my
country l would especially dislike
to have the readers of my paper
know how l do them. 1 have been
much impressed all along the way
by men speaking of the free press,
and confess it makes a hit with
me. All through the present finan-
cial panic, money has been so elus-
i've, make no secret of the fact that
many of our good citizens living
down there beyond the hump dis
like to say south Idaho as II it were
apart from this end of the state
let me speak of central Idaho as the
hump-a lot of our good people
down there have gone broke-so
flat they could not pay their sub
scriptions to my paper, and out of
mutual respect for each other we
just avoid mention of my bill. Most
of them when they are broke fiat
they move away and when it Is time
to make my annual collections
take the card file and sort out such
accounts and drop them as cheerful
ly as l can into the waste basket and
with each one so dropped 1t be-
comes a case of a free press.
And so I say to you that this
thing of free press is getting I'M
der my skin and l wonHer how long
it will last. But leaving that for
more pleasant subject, want to
say to you, folks, that. II we had
known how good 1t is to be at your
house, we would have come sooner
than we did. It's awfully nice to
be here and have our feet under
your table We want to stay as
long as you'll let us We like you
SO we'll we want to apologize for
not getting acquainted with you
sooner. Now that the North and
South highway is open to traffic, we
are going to grease the jitney and
come more often. Dad and mother
will bring son and daughter up to
school and be back again at COM
mencement. We shall all get bet
ter acquainted. Our sons and
daughters will intermarry-and we
shall, then automatically become
fond grandparents, loving the same
This my first trip over the high
way seemed rather long, but it will
shorten as we get used to it. Let
me say it seems so long that Mrs.
Trego and l are not going back that
way. We are going on around the
loop looking for shorter road. l
want to tell you that I have one of
the marks of a great man-General
Grant never liked to turn around
and take the back track-Neither do
and we are not going to. On
map a road looks short and easy,

and as l recall the long trip up here
l look at my road map and am salts
fed with the road home. BY the
time we cover it, l suppose 1t may
be somuch longer that we shall al
ways hereafter take the North and
South highway when we want to go
around the hump.
"Of course you are going to re-
turn our call. If you come In sum-
mer we will get up something good
out of our gardens. We raise good
carrots and corn-you ought to try
our corn. We raise the Golden Ban
tam, and when it comes on the table
piping hot we take lump of butter
| this way (indicating) and smear 1t
slowly the length of the ear. and the
butter makes the salt stick when
we sprinkle 1t on. We are the kind
of folks who bite the corn off of the
cob, and you may like us pretty
well. all of us southern, no, all OF us
who live beyond the hump.
Now l want to make my confess
sion-many times have said or en-
dorsed what the other fellow said
about our keeping university In
the panhandle of Idaho to educate
states; so when Prof. Dale pointed
out that little wedge on his circular
chart showing how few there are
here, you may not have noticed 1t

its smallness. On that matter as

the men who gave his life in the

proposed Hall of Memories.
Folks there should be no quarrel
or question as to why the state in
situations were located where they
are. l want to tell you just what
happened. 1t was all logical en-
ough If you will just consider. You
know there were good many cat
tlemen in the southwest, and some
mining; there were a good many
sheep men in the southeast, and
some farming; there were good
many lumberjacks in the north and
some dry farmers. Statesmen took
into consideration the needs of the
respective localities-the types of
people living there-so they gave
Boise the penitentiary.
"They built the asylum at Black

got up here-you need educating.
