ton and that this, of necessity, elimi-
mated him from the race.
The senator would not hazard a
guess as to what the democratic ma
tional convention would do, but rather
thought the South would not permit
the nomination of Bryan.
Speaking of Idaho's position in the
political arena, the senator declared
that he would not support any man
for the presidency who was in favor
of letting down the protection bars SO
that foreign products could compete
with Idaho's raw material.
Referring to his own candidacy for
reelection, he declared that he would
not oppose an Endorsement at the re-
publican state convention and init
mated that he expected such an in
dorsement. However, he said this
would not necessarily be binding on the
legislative candidates, although follow
ing the precedent established at the
last convention.
