FIERCE STRUGGLE AT ST. AN
THONY.
SPECIAL to The Herald.l

st. Anthony, Ida, July l9.-The most
fiercely contested and most sensational
Republican convention ever held in the
state of Idaho was held here yesterday.
For two days politicians from every part
OF the state had been lining up their
forces and the town had been kept on
the qui vive awaiting the merry war
which was known to be inevitable. The
great fight was between the Brady and
5orah forces, with both gentlemen con-
Quoting their campaigns. and last night
the Borah forces were triumphantly cele-
brating their victory, for they simply out
generated the Brady forces and won a
decisive victory by carrying through an
amendment to the resolutions of the COM
This was done by one of the smoothest
political turns seen in a convention. 1t
seemed apparent from the vote on the
temporary chairman that the Brady forces
were In the majority.
Borah's Combination.
A few days before Borah had hooked
up with Judge Stevens Of Bingham county
against Brady and Jones. the latter OF
ST. Anthony and contesting with Stevens
combination he swept the Bingham pr-
maries. The injecting of an amend.
ment in the resolutions yesterday by the
Borah forces indorsing Jones for judge
ton so by surprise that before IL was
known BOrah had carried the day by
hooking up with the man he had fought
in Bingham.
Delegate Moore made one Of the most
sensational speeches of the day. openly
charging the Gooding administration and
prominent men of the county with fraud
and double dealing. he stating that he car
ried the documentary evidence in his
pocket.
Hamer for Congress.
Colonel Hamer was endorsed for con-
gress and made one Of the most stirring
speeches of the day. Caleb Jones, who
against T. J. Hagenbarth. the central
committees choice. was also strongly en-
dorsed for district Judge.
A strange feature of the convention was
the absolute ignoring of the present state
administration, when its friends were in
control Of the resolutions committee. The
majority was simply afraid of the mi
nority and the latter won out.
Much opposition has arisen of late
against Governor Gooding on account of
his stand for reserves in this part OF
the state, and while il is believed that
a majority of the twenty-six delegates
elected will be for him at the state con-
yention, yet the scrimn age is so fierce
that il will be several days before the
real results will be known.
Many Bitter Speeches.
Personalities were INDUCED in at the be-
ginning Of the convention and for while
il looked like d free-for-all fight would
occur. Many big surprises were sprung
and the factions seem to be getting fur
Their away from each other.
Twenty-six delegates TO the state con.
vention. OF the number four only are
for Gooding. twenty-five are against his
denomination.

EIGHT HOURS ON
PUBLIC WORKS
President Gives an Order
Where Congress Failed to
Pass a Law.
TAFT GIVES THE ADVICE
GOVERNMENT OFFICERS TO
PROSECUTE.

Washington, July 19.--Action of the
greatest importance to labor circles is
contemplated in d direction given by TIE
president to officers in charge of public
works, at the instance of Secretary Taft.
This is TO employ the governments own
officers to detect and punish violations
of the law of 1902, providing except that
in case of an emergency work on govern :
ment buildings ships and other proper
ties shall be limited 10 eight hours each
day for each workman.
An effort was made by the forces of
organized labor during the last session OF
congress to secure legislation TO this end,
but so effective was the opposition of the
great contracting firms that adjournment
was had without any action on the pend
ing bill, though the house committee on
labor consumed many hours in listening
TO powerful arguments on either side or
the question
Law Has Been Violated.
Heretofore it has been the practice Of
made by labor unions that the eight-hOur
law was being violated by contractors
engaged in public enterprises. to reply
that it was not their business; that the
law was binding on the contractors and
that if the labor unions felt aggrievcd
and knew of violations of the law they
should proceed themselves legally against
the offenders. The labor unions painted
out that il was almost Impossible for
them TO secure the necessary evidence.
The effect OF the order on the cost Of
government work is expected to Ge Very
great. 1t is known that ii has been al
most invariably the rule for the govern
ment contractors to work their men ten
ana twelve and even more hours a day:
il they cannot do this they assert that
they must increase by 20 or % per cent
the amount of their bids, so that congress
must either increase by like percentage
the appropriations for public works or
must correspondingly reduce the amount
of work authorized.

New York District Attorney De-
livers Address to Georgia
Bar Association.
CRITICISM OF ROOSEVELT
TAKES WHACk AT NEW YORK
LEGISLATURE.

Warm Springs, Ga, July 19.-District At
torney Jerome delivered an address on
Public Opinion, Its Power, Some Of IT'S
Evils and lnjustices. and Our Duty. as
Lawyers, to IT. before the Georgia Bar
association tonight.
Ia the course of his address Mr.. Je-
rome referred 70 President Roosevelt S
criticism Of United States court judge,
saying:
There is one injustice which public
opinion not infrequently does; IL is one
winch lawyers can do much TO correct,
ana that is the criticism Of judges for
decisions which they could not avoid max
ing II they obey the law. The recent
spectacle of the nations chief executive.
hnlsef not lawyer, criticising in a
public document a federal judge for his
decision on point of law, has not i
believe, commended itself to our profess
sion, The laws are our laws. Public
opinion made them and can change them.
Duty of Judge.
Every citizen has a right to crlticise
. them and seek their amendment or re-
v peal but while they are our laws we
Fant our judges TO obey them and not
substitute for them something they deem
in accord with a thing so mutabie and
difficult 10 ascertain as public opinion. -
In the beginning Mr.. Jerome said there
were men, guided by a high sense of
duty, who would do and continue to do
their duty as they saw it, regardless of
the majority opinion which we call pu6-
lie opinion.
TO public opinion" said Mr. Jerome, IF he
be not fanatic, is often something of a
fool and a knave. To a public officer
the discharge Of his duty with or in the
face of public opinion is like the run
ming of an engine with oiled or sanded
bearings.
Potent Public Opinion.
How potent public opinion Is. is every
where evident to the lawyer. In my own
. state the constitution prohibits gambling
ana enjoins the legislature to pass laws
10 prevent it, The legislature. however.
has dared to pass law which aimed in
form to reform gambling on race tracks,
but was VIGOROUSLY designed to protect
il, and this was possible only because
public opinion permitted. Whatever it's
cause and whatever its history, public
opinion stands today as the most import
ant single influence in the nation.
Part Lawyers Should Take.
in many parts of the country and
especially in our great cities, mans
ability To command a hearing must de-
pend largely upon the newspapers, and
il is by them that the greatest justice
and sometimes the greatest injustice is
done"
As to the part the speaker contended
lawyers should take in influencing public
opinion, Mr.. Jerome said:
ii lne power OF pubic opinion De so
great and if each of us has not incon-
siderable capacity TO influence it, it
seems almost needless, because so OBJ
vioUs. to point out how of all classes Of
men the lawyers especially can Influence
il and are under duty to do so. For
veal or for woe, in proportion TO our
numbers. we are, or can be, the most
influential body of men in the country"

This positive declaration was made yes

Just returned from st. Anthony, Ida.
where the Fremont county Republican
convention was held That convention
instructed its twenty-six delegates, one
OF whom is Mr.. Hagenbarth. TO support

Mr. Hagenbarth. who is elated over the
prospects for Mr.. Borah's victory, says
mat indications point to the defeat OF
Governor Frank r. Gooding for renom-
nation
He will have to play fair with Mr..
Borah, said Mr.. Hagentarth. or he will
be defeated Mr. Borah's friends are de
