During last week Governor Good
ing held splendid public meetings
at Emmett, Weiser, Meridian, Po-
catelIo and Twin Falls, being greet
ed at each place with crowded
houses composed Of the most appre-
ciative audiences who have listened
to public speaker throughout this
campaign. AT each place the re-
port came that the people gave the
most striking evidences of their
entire confidence in him. 1t is con-
fidently predicted that in each of
the counties in which he spoke dur
ing the past week, he will have an
enormous majority, one greater
than has ever before been cast for
republican candidate in those pla-
ces. This is as it should be. The
state during the past two years has
made marvellous strides; the ad-
vancement in all lines has been
phenomenal and at least a portion
OF the credit of this development
can honestly be given to the COVER
nor. He has in many ways been
the best advertisement that the
state has ever had. The people Of
the other states have learned to APP
preciate the fact that here we have
an executive whose whole soul is
wrapped up in the welfare of his
state, in the development of its re-
sources and the advancement of its
people. Such state they feel is a

The prime mover and insti-
gator Of the conspiracy against
Robert Lansdon, republican can
didate for secretary of state, is
himself a man who served the
state in past years not entirely
to the profit of the common
wealth or to the honorable repu-
tation of the employee. While
employed by the state land de-
partment, this man selected
about 10000 acres of land, a
large portion of which the pres
ent administration succeeded in
having relinquished to the gov
eminent. To do this it was
necessary to prove absolutefraud
in the selection of the land. This
fraud was proven largely by the
affidavit of the selectOr, who add
mitted that though instructed
not to select any land which was
not worth the minimum price OF
$40 an acre, knowingly and adj
visedly made a selection on land
that he regarded and indeed knew
from long experience to be prac-
tically worthless. TWAS through
no fault of his that the 10000
acres selected was not an entire
loss to the state OF Idaho. If the
present state administration had
not succeeded in having the re-
linquishment accepted by the
general land Office, and this could
only be done through the show
ing that fraud had been perpe-
trated upon hesitate land board,
the endowment funds ofthe state
Of Idaho at the present time
would have been saddled with
about 60, 600 acres more of alb
solutely worthless lands.

The Two Texts.

There was one scriptural text that
was worked over time: "Why
stand ye all the day idle?" The
Illuminating question was asked
by the empty larders ofthe land;
by the cold furnaces of thousands
OF thousands ofindustries; by the
knocking fields which no man
could till; by the cheerless hearth
stones where helpless families
crouched in dispair; by the flag
ging and faltering energies of
men, denied the privilege OF en-
ployment and was asked again
IN the narrowing dreams ofnight
and chilling despair OF the day.
Aye, indeed in nation thatcon-
sumes millions of dollars worth
OF the products of the world, and
can supply the world with feed,
"why stand We idle all the day?"
The people, without regard to-
past party affiliations, answered
1t as soon as they could get to
the national ballot boxes. They
threw aside the dazzling banners
OF alluring experiment and hoist
ed again the homely and almost
hallowed emblem of republican
policies and marched steadily up
ward to the mountain height of
present prosperity.
Now another text confronts us,
and it follows the first quite ma
turrally, both in the scriptures
and in the course of events, "go
work in my vineyard, the harvest
is great and the laborers are
few" and it is so. Yet, there are
people that are just as seductive
ly displaying the shop worn old
democratic mottos as they did
in the days of esage of buzzards
bay. Some of the people feel so
secure in their present thrift and
Others are made so desperate by
the lack OF success that they are
really prone to forget the terrors
of the nineties and would again
speculate.
Never before in the history, of
this section of the country at
least, has there been such a
scarcity Of laborers and so much
work to be done notwithstanding
the croakings of the ENJOYS of
ennervating envy, that infest our
centers OF population. But will
our people decree a change of
policy; have they forgotten the
soup kitchens and humiliations
OF a little over a decade ago.
These are the real paramount
issues, these are the questions
that all voters should put to
themselves. Knowing that Ida
no is a heavy producer of lead,
live stock, lumber and other raw
material, do we want to tear
down the protection to the pro-
ducts of our own people and sub
nit them to the degradation of
foreign competition, under demo-
cratic policies, or do we prefer to
perpetuate present conditions by
the retention of republican prin-
ciples? you choose the former,
vote for the Hon. Fred T. Dubois

MODERN INDEX
FOR THE OFFICE.

Since DR.. John r. O. Thompson
has been in charge of the Cumber.
land County Surrogate's Office. he has
been industriously engaged in making
many reforms and improvements in
the office.
When DR.. Thompson took the Office
it was rather uninviting Ipiace, far
from what it should be, and the Sur.
rogate at once began to change things
about. He was able to get some new
furniture, tasty rugs, the interior of
thes rooms were painted, and when
finished the offices were so entirely
different that they Iwere much COM

Since.then. Surrogate Thompson has

been SO changed and improved that

have freely expressed their apprecia.
tion.
For a long while the Surrogate has
been anxious to re.index the office and
employ for the future a modern, com.
prehensive system. This work he is
now inaugurating. The system he
has adopted is in part that used in
other places, and in part original. Its
chief Characteristic is simplicity. and
much time will be saved when the
work is complete when one is looking
for filed papers.
Every record filed will be properly
and completelyIindexed. Every paper
will be filed away and specifically
numbered. and the filing will conform
with the scheme of index. A filed
paper being Edesired, glance at the
alphabetical index will tell where it
can be found, while only a moment
will be required to place ones hands

ment. However, the Surrogate is 8
very active man. thoroughly progres.
sive, and he will scarce'get this index
out of the way before some other i'm.
portant matter will suggest itself, and
he will take up another project.
1t is not saying too much to suggest
that Cumberland county has not had
a more thorough, competent, pains
taking Surrogate than DR.. Thompson.
He gives his personal attention to the
administration of the Office. Indeed
his friends are of the opinion that he
confines himself too closely to the
offioe. and by SO doing endangers his
health.

The State In a Legal Contest.

promises to be lively legal fight has
just been stated in the Supreme Court
by Attorney General RoberE H. Nc
Garter. 1t is to oust Sarah Jane An.
cost from her home, occupying prom
inent position in a block of the finest
real estate in Vineland, the greater
part of which is owned by the State
Home for Feeble Minded Women.
The State has acquired all the prop
erty surrounding the home of Mrs.
Aucott, and with the possession of the
Aucott house and land will own all
the land on the corner of Main and
Lands avenues, running eastward for
nearly half mile.
Mrs. Aucott has steadfastly refused
to sell except at price that she deems
would jus ify her in parting with her
home, but which the State has de-
cided exorbitant.
The State decided to enlarge the
home grounds, which makes necessary
the acquisition of this property. As
the State is not crowded for room,
friends of Mrs. Aucott pronounce it
unjust to deprive her of her home.
The Attorney General has com.
menced condemnation proceedings, and
the first hearing is announced to take
place before Supreme COURT Judge

Bridgeton on Saturday, September l..

EMMETT MAKES
FULL CONFESSION

All the mystery connected with the
robbery of the safe of Ogden & Platt
mas been cleared up, and most of the
money taken by the burglars has been
procured.
The suspicion of the police which
led to the arrest of Louis Emmett
proved correct.
ALI day. pretty much, Officer Aaron
smith worked upon the case. He felt
that Emmett wss the man VINO robbed
the safe, and was determined that the
evidence should be forthcoming. He
ran down all the stories told by
Emmett and proved that they were
lies pure and simple. He searched his
boarding house, and in the afternoon
managed to unravel the transaction in
a manner most satisfactory.
While Emmett was in the STATEN
house he wrote a note addressed to a
man named Edwards, an uncle. This
ne managed to poke through window
and it fell to the ground. He then
called some boys and asked them to
get his uncle over there. Officer Bar.
ton witnessed the episode of the note,
and secured it. The note was an ap.
peal to his uncle for the loan of $40
for lawyer as he was in trouble.
An officer went to the uncle, Chris.
Edwards, told him about Emmett's
arrest. Then it was that Edwards
pulled from his pocket a paper bag,
and said that late the night before
Emmett had given it to him to keep.
He explained that it was money sent
him from Newark by a girl. Edwards
said he had not opened the bag and
did not know what was in it. The
officer took the bag and contents to
City Hall. In the bag was $40 all in
bills. the most of them new, crisp 81
notes. The money was the same as
taken from the safe.
Shortly afterward Emmett was
brought to the City Hall and given
an examination. He declared he did
not know anything about the robbery
and he did not know anything about
the paper bag or the money. Nothing
could shake him. ~
Later Emmett was sent back TO the
station house, and after he was alone
and thinking the matter over he de-
| cided to confess and did so, making a
confession in writing.
He admitted doing the job, and was
assisted by Herberr Lake, and the
latter got some of the money.
Lake is also a graduate of State
Prison, and early this morning he was
arrested, by Officer Smith and com.
mitted to Jail.
One of the checks which were stolen
Emmett said was burned.
Prosecutor Fithian said Thursday
that Emmett would be prosecuted upon
the charge of burglary, and if he was
convicted and sentenced to State prison
would have to serve his parole at the
expiration of his new sentence.
