EVERY ONE TALKING
POLITICS IN IDAHO
IN Associat.d Prcss.

BOISE, Idaho, Nov. 3.-Secretary
Tafts trip through Idaho has mater
tally increased the enthusiasm of the
Republicans in the closing of their
campaign. Secretary Taft has strongly
indorSed the Republican "law and or
der argument that Governor Frank g..
GoodirG should be reelected as an
Endorsement of his course in prosecut-
ing the labor leaders accused of the
assassination of former Governor
Steunenberg.
The Mormon ISSUE" raised by the
Democratic campaign managers, has
been avoided as far as possible by the
Republicans, and on the other hand
the Democrats have avoided the "law
and order issue.
Through the Mormon counties of
southern Idaho much bitterness has
been aroused by the attacks of the
Democrats led by Senator Dubois, upon
the Mormons.
Threats to challenge all Mormons at
the polls on the allegations of dis
qualification under the sta,e constitu-
tion are bitterly resented and If Demo-
cratic challengers acknowledge these
threats serious disturbances at the
polls are probable.

By Associated Press.

By Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Today practi-
cally closed the most extraordinary
campaign for governor in the political
history of the state, although both the
candidates will continue speech making
until Monday night.
1t has been campaign of personali-
ties rather than of politics, of men
rather than Of measures, and 1t has
stirred the interest of the voters of the
Empire state to it's extreme bounda-
rles. For vigor and vituperation it has
been without precedent and for persis-
tency of appeals for votes by the two
candidates it stands alone.
The close of the campaign finds a
political situation unprecedented in this
state, and some of the shrewdest poll
ticians admit that the shrewdest prog
nostications are all but worthless.
Mr.. Hearst claims the practically
undivided support of union labor and
the independence league, and asserts
that he has so broken down the Re-
publican machine upstate as to make
impossible the huge Republican ma
jority which has hitherto been brought
down to the Bronx to wipe out the
Democratic plurality in Greater New
York
Mr.. Hughes and the Republican
managers admit that there has been
detection from the Republican ranks
among the laboring classes. but assert
that this loss is more than offset by the
promised support of "old line" Demo-
Gratis.
Mr.. Murphy of Tammany hall claims
that Mr.. Hearst, whom Tammany
helped to nominate at Buffalo despite
his opposition to the ticket year ago,
will carry New York by a plurality of
$4,000 to 100000 votes. The Republicans
say they are elated over this predic-
uon, for they claim Mr.. Hughes will
come to the Bronx with 100000 votes to
spare.

James NJ Griggs of this committee
thinks this claim Is rather too con-
servative. In analyzing the claim to
show where the gains are expected MIR.
Griggs Is quoted as saying:
"The claim of a Democratic gain of
ten I'm New York Is safe.
"The claim Of one gain each In Mas
sachusetts, North Carolina, Kentucky,
Montana, Delaware, Rhode Island,
Connecticut, Idaho and Virginia is
good.
The claim Of a gain of six in Penn
sylvania Is too conservative. The
same may be said of the claim of a
gain of six In Illinois. We will gain
eight i'm Missouri. Concessions are
made to us of five or six in Ohio, but
will do better than that. The computa-
ton that puts us down for only one I'm
Indiana is in error. New Jersey is to
be counted on for gain Of three, while
gains will be made in Iowa. Nebraska
and California"

New York, with its fight between

the campaign in all of its ramifica-

GIANT OAK WEIGHS 10 TONS
Massachusetts County Makes But Lit
tie Bid for Fame in Timber, But
1t Has Big White Oak.

Plymouth county, Mass, makes
but little bid for fame as bly,
timber" country, but gigantic
white oak tree, fclled near Middle
bOro, will give it good claim for
! growing one of the big trees in
the country, says the Boston
Globe.
The tree was on land owned by
Gilbert II. Simmons, MiddlebOro
wood dealer, and was located near
the cold furnace" on Grove street.
1t was a companion tree of an
other almost its equal in size, ami
both majestically lowered in the
sky, far above the other trees in
the lot.
While in search for suitable
white oak wood to be used in
ship building, j. A. Thomas, an.
other MiddleborO wood dealer,
located the big tree, as we'll as an,
other one, and purchased them
from Mr.. Simmons.
When cut down, the larger one
was 81 feet long in the trunk, with
44-foOt butt, and was about Is inch
es in diameter at the top. The
rings, showing the age, tctaled
161. The tree before it was cut
was about IS feet tall, and from
the limbs and branches many
cords of firewOOd were secured be
side the wood in th@trunk.
The trunk weighed over three
tons, while Mr.. Thomas estimates
the total weight of the tree at
about ten tons.
When trimmed off ready for the
three-mile haul to the railroad sta
ton it was lacked onto two pair Of
wheels, and the journey was made
with several horses. 1t was load
ed onto car by tackle arrange
ment, pair of cattle operating it.
The other tree which was cut
was 103 years old, 4 feet at the
butt, 80 feet long and foot in di-
ameter at the top.
