CANDIDATES FOR
THE SPEAKERSHIP

Already considerable campaigning
Is under way in the interests of sew
eral representatives. for the
speakership of the next house of
representatives. There are at least
half dozen in the field. In the far
north there is Paul GLADSTONE, a
most accomplished man for the posi-
ton, and who is going to nave the
solid support of at least Bonner and
Kootenai counties, and possibly Sho-
shone. He made an excellent race
for the legislature, running away
ahead of his ticket, and coming un-
der the wire by nearly two thousand
majority, showing his excellent stand
ing. Idaho county is behind Charles
M. Parsons, another well-equipped
and strong man. Those who are ac-
quainted with him say he is skilled
parliamentarian, and republican
who insists on every pledge made by
the party being kept. 1t is said Nez
Perez will be with Idaho county in
his candidacy.
Coming down to central Idaho, J.
M. Thompson of Canyon county is
being pushed, and because of the
grand majority this country gave the
lob hn NIL fo nf
that it carried it's entire legislative
ticA.. through the fight. Mr.. Thomp-
son will receive considerable support.
Coming to the southeast, three men
are being discussed, all of whom have
had considerable legislative expert
ence. These men are Judge McCutch-
con and Pete Johnston of Bingham
and "Big Jim" Webster Of Fremont.
All are good men and well equipped
for the position, being tactful, expert
enced and skilled parliamentarians.
OF course Fremont would feel highly
honored at the election of her favored
son, and no mistake would be made
in placing. him as the presiding off
Ger of the lower house at the COM
ing session. He is well known
throughout. Idaho, and in the general
mixup that seems likely to occur on
the speakership may be- selected for
this important position 1Exchange.

THE HEALTH

,of your body depends largely on the
condition of your eyes. II the eyes are
not working under nor@s1 Conditions
(which means the faulty muscle ad-
justment or eye-strain) there are
three parts to your body that may feel
the reflex action at one time, or you
may have trouble in just one of these
three parts. When the eyes are de-
fective they affect the head, stomach
and back, or any one of these three
parts. Your eyes may not show any
symptoms Of weakness because they
obtain their strength form one of the
centers mentioned. Any one Of the
following symptoms may denote eye
strain. A tight feeling in the head;
headache, dizzy spells, poor memory;
stomach trouble or nervousness; "sea
sickness" when riding or travelling
may be symptoms of eve defects.
Then some eye defects are so located
as to weaken the spinal column and
cause pains in the back. So many
people are getting relief from old
standing troubles, that they thought
chronic, after wearing the proper
glasses for their eyes that the general
public is beginning to understand
that glasses are nerve-conserving
factor and not fad. If you would

heavy loser.
A separate board to work out the
details, leaving the state officers on
the land board to put on the final
touches, is certainly a wise proposal.

now admit that the three men arrest

Every one Of the desperate band. eX-
ccpt the three men killed. escaped in
the confusion. The identification Of
these three throws. but little light on
their connections. While 1t IS believ-
cd by some that they were involved in
the conspiracies which were unearthed
in the latter part of January. il is pos
sible that the regicidc was planned
and executed on the spur of the mo-
ment after the appearance of a decree
by small group of militant revolu-
tionaries or anarchistic Socialists. who
may have imagined that the oblitera-
ton of the Braganza dynasty would
cause spontaneous uprising of the
people.
