Southeastern Part of State.
BT C. B. ARXET..
BOISE, Idaho, March 18. (Special.)
There la an element of uncertainty
In Idaho as to how the Mormon vote
of the southeast will "go" two years
hence. For many years this has been
a perplexing problem of more than ordi
nary Interest to .the politicians of thla
It was In the territorial session of
1885 that W. H. Smith, generally Known
over the territory aa "Kentucky" Smith,
.-J . I - fhvnnrh both
houses the famous Idaho "test oath.
Thla waa an ironclad aiaiuie requir
ing appllcattte for the exercise of the
elective franchise to subscribe to an
oath which was tantamount to a re
nunciation of all future adherence to
. i f.i,h Th "(p,t oath"
was the final blow which" served to
disfranchise all Mormons in laano ter
ritory. Because of the Edmunds act.
provision was easy to .enforce and at
the following election no Mormons any
where In the territory offered to exer
cise their right of franchise.
Republicans FaUier Act.
This law at the time waa primary
Republican legislation; that Is to say.
It was fathered by the Republicana of
o .v. tj.hA who formed the or
ganization of the 'Anti-Mormon" party
and joined, wun tnem in im mu "".
a number of bright Democrats of stand
ing and ability; chief among whom was
the able lawyer and politician, "Ken
tucky" Smith of Malad. The remainder
of the Republicans of the atate accepted
these antl-Mormona ffom the southeast
to their conventions, territorial and district-
As a result the Mormons .of all
this southeastern country, Jwhlle dis
franchised, .were Democratic in Inclina
tion, aa they have ever been as an or
ganism, except the Smith dynasty, who
are primarily Republicans.
In the second election after the en
actment of thla territorial legislation,
James . IL Hawley (now Governor of
Idaho) was a candidate on the Democratic-
ticket for delegate to Congress,
against Fred T. Dubois. Republican
twice since representing the state In
the Senate of the United States).
Dubola had been a Republican and
living then, as now. In Blackfoot. In
the center of all Mormondom, became
a leader In tbe movement to disfran
chise the Mormons. He had helped
"Kentucky" Smith to frame the "test
oath" and to pass It and when Terri
torial Governor Bunn had balked In
signing the famoua document, which
took from 16.000 people their right .of
suffrage. Smith and Dubois used the
means necessary to require the per
formance of this ministerial act.
These conditions at once made the
Mormons all booaters for Hawley. They
not only shouted, enthused and worked
. v..i YTMntiie" neiarhbora and
friends, but when election day came
on they did more.
For ten days before election In 1888
all attention centered on.Rexburg, then
