May MAKE HIM
STATE SENATOR

f. w. Oliver Of Grangeville is in
Lewiston today on his return trip from
Walla Walla, where he has been for
some time. Mr.. oliver stated this
morning that he is more than pleased
with the advancement Lewiston shows,
and the noted progress upon every re-
turn visit.
Mr.. oliver is one of the most promi-
nent men Of Idaho county and is much
talked Of this year in connection with
the office of state senator. 1t is
generally believed that If he allows
his name to be used for that office. 1t
will do much toward assuring re-
publican victory this year for Idaho
county. The county has been demo-
cratic until last year, and the republt-
cans, while they feel assured Of sue
cess again this year, are not confident
to risk any mistakes.
