Mr. Gooding has long fought much
j the same elements as is represented in
the leadership of rhe league, and
Chairman Taylor knew what strong
grounds he took. Without consulting
Mr. Gooding he signed the latter'*
name to a letter, stating that Mr. Good

right spirit, but that he was not solicit

and , he believed he was performing a
»ervlce for his party. He said he had
a '*° '^ed Mr. DavU, whom h* had
seen personally, to send a similar let
ter, but that the following day Mr.
Davis, on reconsideration, recalled it,
stating that his convictions were such
he could not see his way clear to re
ceive the indorsement of an organiza

shown to be notoriously allied with
the I. W. W. and Socialists, and who
were endeavoring to establish a Bol

was considerable criticism when Mr.
Taylor resigned.
Says He Is an I. W. W.
During the week a portion of tha
evidence adduced at the trial of Bill
Haywood and other I. W. W. leaders
at Chicago was made puhlic here in
i facsimile form. It was brought out
by Mr. Gooding, following bitter at
tacks made on him by Non-Partisan
league leaders. This evidence was in
the form of a letter from Arthur La
Seuer. national secretary of the Non
Partisan league, who has charge of tha
work in Idaho, being conducted largely
by Ray McKaig and W. G. Schultz,
Le Seuer wrote this letter to Bill Hay
wood on April 5, lilt". It was on sta
tionery of the Socialist college, of
which Eugene Debs, recently sent to
prison for ten years, was president.
Le Seller's name appeared as one of
the officers of the college.
Against Government.
In this letter to Haywood. I.e Seur
said, among other things, that it was
necessary in view of this "damned
war" to fight anti-spy legislation, re
ferring to the espionage bill, since en
acted.
Governor Gooding points out that
this is only part of the evidence show
ing the connection of the Non-Partisan
league leaders with the I. W. W„ and
he declares that McKaig and Scbolta
are in the same class with Le Seuet
and are upholding him in their work
among the farmers of Idaho.
Mr. Gooding says that the fight now
being made on him is Just a continua
tion of the bitterness that hns been
directed against him by Haywood and
the latter's associates ever since Good. ;
log was governor of Idaho and helped
to prosecute Haywood, Moyer and Pet
tlbone for conspiring to bring about
the assassinatiou of ex-Governor Steu

Confessed Disloyalist,
The present controversy resulted
from the arrest of Horace Mann In

ganizer of the Non-Partisan league. !
Reputable citizens made affidavit as
to the seditious statements on his part, [
but McKaig, as field aecretary, with«
out investigating him, instructed him :
to continue his work In that county,
When Mann was confronted with the
I affidavits and additional evidence, he
made a clean breast, confessing under

Seuer and wort-id here under the dl-
