Special TO The Tribune.
WEISER, Idaho, Sept, 30,-Colonel
Avery C, Moore, editor of the Gooding-
Brady-owned Weiser World, left this
week for the northern part of the state
TO campaign for Gooding and Borah,
Moore is competent from a political
standpoint to speak for any party, as
he has been q member of all of them,
Four years ago he canyassed the same
section as a democrat-was elected to
the legislature from Idaho county as
a Democrat. Two years ago, because
he was denied admission to the conyen-
tion TO elect delegates to the National
Democratic convention on a proxy
which he had went post haste from the
Louisiana exposition at st. Louis to
Whitebird IN Idaho county to procure.
he left the party and has since been
training with the Gooding Borah Brady
combine. Moore worked with might
and main TO secure his selection as a
delegate TO the Republican State con-
vention. but was turned down. lie then
concluded he would like to go TO the
county nominating convention as dele
gate, n legislative bee having developed
in his bonnet, but he was again doomed
TO disappointment, as he was defeated
at the primaries two 10 one by the
anti Goodings. Colonel Avery IS be-
ginning to think this is world Of po~
htical disappointments.
Attempt to Stem Tide.
The efforts of the Boise Statesman
and other Idaho papers to stem the
rapidly increasing tide of opposition
to Gov. Frank R. Gooding and his cor
rupt administration would be amusing
were il not so pitiable. The Statesman
is pleading for support for Governor
Gooding on the record he has made in
the prosecution of the alleged murder
ers of Ex-Governor Steuucnberg. No
man could do that but Gooding. On
of the trial. He is the Judge, jury and
counsel, sheriff and detectives.
Docs the Statesman believe that it
can make the people of Idaho believe
that Gooding is the only man in the
State who can or Will punish those men
if they dre proven guilty of the crime
OF which they are chargedl Is not
Judge Stockslager with his extensive
knowledge of the law as capable of
looking after the conduct of the law
and order of the State as Governor
Gooding9 Such gush as that doled out
daily by the Statesman is nauscating
and is beginning to pail upon the intel
hgent citizens of the State.
Two years ago when the name OF
Frank K. Good!ng was mentioned in
connection with the Republican candi
dacv for Governor Of Idaho, the States
man rldiculed the idea and stated
Frank r. Goodlng did not have the edu-
cation and ability to act as constable.
much less that of chief executive of
great State. Today, in the estimation
Of the Statesman there is not man in
Idaho who IS at to step into his shoes.
Who Will Write Gooding's Speech,
Many persons are wondering who will
write the Governor S speeches this year,
as United States District Attorney
Ruick, who wrote them two years ago,
has deserted the sinking ship. Good
ing is in the northern part of the State
now delivering his prepared speeches
and telling in stentoriau terms that
there is no Mormon issue in Idaho and
that "thc winning of Idaho will look
after the morality of the State-that
there are no polygamists in Idaho; II
only originates in the mind of the Dem
ocrats.
The winning of Idaho will take
care Of the morality of our fair State,
but in taking care of that Mr.. Gooding
and his Mormon allies will be looked
after at the same time, and in so
thorough a manner that they will never
again appear as all issue III the politics
Of the State of Idaho.
