Republican legislature passed q law
placing these moneys on interest, pro-

Democratic administration. The sec
rotary Of states office was not or

passed a law taxing all corporations,

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
100000 acres of the finest white pine
timber In the world, practically In a
single tract, was sold at an average
price Of a 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 S12 an acre for this relatively In
ferior timber. This itself would seem
a sufficient commentary on the diff
ference In the wisdom Of an import
ant public trust between the Repub-
lican and Democratic administrations.

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 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.

The greatest political demonstration
in the history Of Idaho preceded the
speech of Governor" James II. Brady
In Boise, October 16. The event
was an important epoch in campaign
history, and his address befitted the
occasion In its simple strength. Ex-
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 q difference between an
organization and machine. 7 be-
lieve in an organized party but not
machine politics. I have been ac-
cused Of being q product Of the lat
ter by my Democratic friends from
one end of the state to the other.
And, while shall not pause now to
tell you why, shall do so, and you
will know right where stand on
several subjects before 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 1t, not with the intention
to steal, but through incapacity. That
was stopped and land preserves were
put on a 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. / 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 great area
of pasture land unoccupied and un-
used. Democratic administration had
not brought in from this dollar. It
is earning you over $4,000 this year.

of protecting the forests, paying its
proportion Of the total cost. This fire

about $4,000.
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 perfect system OF
books have been written. Many mat
ters of disagreement and misunder-
standing between the general land Of
state have been settled amicabTy, and
the state has proflted 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
by quoting the records Of the land de-
partment, taking first the period from
the beginning Of statehood until jan
uary 1, 1905, and last the period from
January /, 1905. to September 4,
1908. What did the Democrats do
this great trust, which 1t is estimated,
IL properly handled from the begin
ming, was worth at least $4,000, 900 !?
