Sheriff Pfost, Mob- Buster of Boise (Continued from . page 4) cattle thieves occasionally make in- roads on the farmers’ stock. That kind of thievery has been practically driven out of business by Sheriff Pfost, in enough real convictions to make it an unhealthy occupation. Mr. Pfost is the most silent sheriff that T have ever talked to. It is prac- tically an impossibility to get him to talk about himself. I had been fed up on other sheriffs’ tales of their heroism, but Pfost is an exception. The people of Meridian, his home town, 10 miles distant from Boise, held a big political meeting for him the night before the primaries. Nonpar- tisan leaguers and citizens of that town came out in a big crowd to hear Mr. Pfost speak. Some of his friends had billed him to tell how he quelled the would-be rioters at Boise. ..When the time came Mr. Pfost was nowhere to be found. He Was more scared of a few citizens (out here in Idaho the women folks all vote) at that meet- ing than he was of a thousand rioters. The next day after he quelled the riot, politicians were parading the streets betting odds that Pfost would be overwhelmingly defeated at the next week’s. primaries. . No —money was in sight by evening, however, f - the good citizens of Boige and sur- rounding country, by_a vote of. three to one, remominated Mr. Pfost as the standard-bearer for the Democratic | ticket. Honest Boise citizens are ‘proud of a sheriff:that saved their city from the reputation of being run and domineered by a few ]awless poli- ticians. 72CY 172 promotin, j;bo%egh gzs 6zscasszoa - 5 h’ENRY GEORGE ECAUSE they could get no local paper that was not controlled by the anti-farmer gang, the farmers of Todd county, per of their own called the Todd County Tribune. They now have not only solved the local kept press prob- lem, but they have a better general paper than before. A soldier, whose parents had sent him a subscription as follows: Seventh Squadron, S. P. D. B. A. P. Vancouver Barracks, Wash. Todd County Tribune, Long Prairie, Minn. ; Dear Editor: I received my first copy of the Tribune last Monday, and I want to express my appreciation of it. My parents could not have made me a better gift, and I know my brother, who is training at Camp Grant and who will soon be “going over,” is also enjoying the receipt of it. Though we are far from home, the Tribune is bringing home to us, and I want to say, that to my mind, a cleaner, newsier, more loyal paper was never published in Todd county. I can not help but notice the un- willingness of Long Prairie merchants to advertise in the farmers’ paper. Do you think, Mr. Merchant, that you are being square with the farm- (Continued from page 10) meetings at which A. C. Townley was to speak.

On October 14, over 1,000 farmers *were ordered out of Hurley, S. D., by- the health officers of Turner county. The farmers had come to Hurley to attend a League rally at which Town- ley and Bates were scheduled to speak. No opposition to the order was mani- fested, although there were only seven cases of influenza in the entire county. On October 12, Governor Nor- beck held a political meeting in ° Bridgewater and his meeting was not interferéd: with, ‘although there were 66 cases of influenza in McCook county and one death had occurred.
