Reviewing election results the Boise Statesman
lioints a finger of scorn at Oregon and says: "Our neigh
bor state has heconie a divided state. Men in office and
in the legislature find themselves expected to cater to
religious interests, cliques and clans. Communities are di
vided. A law, presented to an unprepared public, for
its snap judgment, has denied parents the right, if they
should desire it, of schooling their children in religious es
tablishments. This will bring bitterness. More than this
the campaign in Oregon has caused things to he said and
done not to be forgotten in a lifetime. Friends have
become enemies. Partners have broken up. Jt is a 'hor
ribl example' sure enough."

and need never be attempted again, lor alter republicans
of this state met and adopted a platform and a good one
not a single candidate would mention that platform or
convention in his campaign. In La Grande we had several
"party leaders" who made political speeches and none of
them gave mention to the effort made by a large number
of republicans who left their business and journeyed to
Portland to construct a sensible party platform. The
reason probably was that these men who spoke were like
