State Officers Made Independent.
When the Republicans became SUI

clerk hire. During this administration
1t will earn over $4,000. The state
game warden's office was in the same
condition. During this administra-
ton 1t will earn over $4,000. The
state treasurer's office had about $3,-
100000, the same as II now has, and

Republican legislature passed a law

viding that they should be loaned to

Development Under Carey Act.
Fourteen years ago bill was
passed, called the Carey act, which
gave to each state a million acres of
land, Ito be used for irrigation pur-
poses. II It would be improved. Idaho
was one of the first to take hold of
the matter. The land segregated was
developed, every acre of It, and we
needed more. That splendid con-

while surrounding these lands were
left unclaimed thousands of acres of
the most fertile soil, to be later seized
upon by spectators. During one
Democratic administration almost
100, 900 acres of the finest white pine
timber in the world, practically in a
single tract, was sold at an average
price of little over SIS an acre, while
at the same time the purchasers of
this state timber were paying private
owners from five to ten times as much
per acre for similar contiguous tim
Der lands. There was an apparent at
tempt to loot the resources of the
state, which was not stopped until
the people voted the Democrats out
of power. The sales of timber on
state lands during the last four years
have been exclusively of small bodies
and of Isolated tracts, under great
danger of destruction by fire, and yet
the state has received an average of
over $12 an acre for this relatively in
ferior timber. This itself would seem
sufficient commentary on the diff
ference in the wisdom of an import
ant public trust between the Repub-
lican and Democratic administrations.
Republicans Protect Timber.
During the years of Democratic
rule, while the state had selected
many thousands Of acres of valuable
timber, which the state administra-
ton was continually hawking about
in eastern markets, at any price, thou
sands of acres were destroyed by for
est fires, and no systematic effort was
made to prevent such losses. I'm
der Republican administrations there
has practically been no destruction of
state timber by fire. The state has
established a fire patrol, and notwith-
standing each year destructive forest
fires have ragged in various parts of
Idaho, the states timber holdings have
gone unscathed. 1t is conservatively
estimated that during the six years of
DEMOCRATIC rule in Idaho, the average
yearly loss of state timber by fire was
in excess of 100000, while during
Governor Gooding's administration
the total loss has not exceeded $4,000.
In north Idaho. where the principal
portion of the states timber hold
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1908-10-31

ings are located, the state has Joined
the large timber owners in the work
of protecting the forests, paying its
proportion of the total cost. This fire
protection cost during the year 1907
about $1,000.
Complete Records Are Made.
Under Governor Gooding the state
land department has made thorough
records. Every acre of land owned
by the state has been plated. its value
estimated and typographical map
made. The timber lands have all
been estimated both as to quantity
and value, and a perfect system of
ters of disagreement and misunder-
standing between the general land Of
flee at Washington. d. c.. and the
state have been settled amicably, and
the state has profited to the extent
of many thousands of dollars in this
manner alone.
Comparison of Earnings.
The profitableness of the business
administration promised by Governor
Gooding, and given the state by him
and the Republican officers, can not
be shown in more graphic way than
partment. taking first the period from
the beginning of statehood until jan
uary /, 1906, and last the period from
January 1, 1905, to September /,
19eS. What did the Democrats do
for the people by their handling of
this great trust, which 1t is estimated,
II properly handled from the begin
ming, was worth at least 5000, 900 :?
During the II years of statehood
prior to January 1. 1905. the total
cash receipts of the state land depart
ment were 81, 04,152.06. Almost half
of this amount was on account of the
sale of timber on about $4,000 acres
of state land. These timber sales
aggregated $699,320.31. The actual
earnings of the land department dur
ing the IA years to January /, 1905,
were $477,638.45. These earnings
were from the following sources:

The greatest political demonstration
in the history of Idaho preceded the
speech of Governor James H. Brady
in Boise, October 16. The event
was an important epoch in campaign
history, and his address befitted the
occasion in its simple strength. Elk
tracts from his discussion of the vital
principles and issues involved in the
present contest are as follows:
Brady's Speech In Part.
There Is difference between an
organization and a machine. I be-
lieve in an organized party but not
machine politics. 1 have been ac-
ter by my Democratic friends from
one end of the state to the other.
And, while shall not pause now to
tell you why 1 shall do so, and you
will know right where I stand on
several subjects before I am through.
Conditions in Idaho were changed
when the Republican party came into
power. Men of honor, integrity, abil-
ity and good judgment took the helm,
wrestling 1t from those who were dis
posing of your timber and had squan-
dered for you over $20,000,000 de-
rived from it, not with the intention
to steal, but through incapacity. That
was stopped and land preserves were
put on sound basis by that substan-
tial citizen, Governor Morrison. The
land board reorganized and COM
menced the sale of this property, and
1t has been selling ever since. l wish
to call your attention to the fact that
during the entire Democratic admin
istration there had not been $4,000
year income from all these re-
sources. You now have over three
and one-half million dollars out at
interest at this time for land sales by
this Republican administration. In
addition, there was found a great area
of pasture land unoccupied and I'M
used. Democratic administration had
not brought in from this a dollar. 1t
is earning you over $4,000 this year.
Other resources, through the Carey
act. have taken in at least $4,000.
Bonds and mortgages are bringing In
