Challis speeches praise and critique mark Idaho politics
Two speeches last week in Challis featured Congressman Burton L. French and ex Senator Henry Heitfeld. Both addressed issues from a Republican and Democratic viewpoint, praising reform and urging voters to support clean homes and moral standards while criticizing polygamy and party evasions. The gatherings drew mixed crowds, with women notably present, and left observers noting frank, plainspoken rhetoric.
