republican nominee for sheriff, Frank

Mr.. Van Duyn has been brave and

cases, and he met his duty unflinch-

is skilled in the drawing of criminal
papers and the procedure of crimi-
nal courts, which in itself is a special
branch of law in which attorneys must
be thoroughly trained by experience

wife and boys, his life companion
having been Miss Lizzie Jenkins,
daughter of Judge M. r. Jenkins,
former probate judge of this county.
The father of him of whom we
write, A. ]. Breshears, is a veteran of
the Civil War, one of the pioneers

the candidate for sheriff, still sur

Mr.. Breshears maintains fraternal
relations with the Masonic order.
Republicanism was born and bred in
his bones, and he is in hearty sympa-

work is so intricate that it requires

Republican Nominee for County At
tOrney.
Owen NJ Van Duyn is we'll and ia
niliarly known to the voters and
the residents of Canyon county. His
fitness for the office of county attor-
ney was most conclusively demon
strated, approved and Endorsed by the
fact that the republican county con-
vention re-nominated him by accla-
nation. This convention was made
up of thoroughly representative men,
elected from every precinct in the
county. Had Mr.. Van Duyn not per-
'ormed his duties satisfactorily and
we'll he would not have received this
high commentator and endorsement.
Mr.. Van Duyn is "a years old. He
was born in Oregon, being a grand
son of Isaac Van Duyn, who crossed
the plains in 1853 and settled in the
Willamette valley. His grandfather
and father were farmers and stock
men. He graduated from the state
university of Oregon in 1897 and was
admitted to the Oregon bar in 1898.
n 1900 he came to Idaho, locating
IN Nampa. He there built up an ex-
cellent practice. He soon became
city attorney of Nampa and while
serving in this capacity was elected
county attorney. Upon removing to
Caldwell Mr.. Van Duyn opened law
office and besides his county work en-
joys a gratifying private practice.
No man of his age in Idaho has had
more experience in important crimi-
aal cases than he. He is thoroughly
versed in this branch of the law, and
this experience has made him inval-
liable to the county. Mr.. Van Duyn is
also familiar with the multitude of le-
cal questions confronting the coun-
" commissioners. These matters arise
at every session and the county at
torney must be ready at all times to
pass upon the legal phase of county
business. County government to be
successful must be conducted like the
business of good business man.
Faithful and experienced employees
should be at all times retained. Coun-
ty offices should not be made prepare
tory schools for those who would
earn their business at the expense
