OiAN-NNN
Cavanaugh E. NJ Hiegho, Barney ONeil, Warren
Truitt and James Brady.
Bishop" John Hart, state senator tor Fremont
county, represents the Mormon church in Idaho ana
it is proper that he should head the list for, without
the consent of the Mormon establishment, none o.
the gentlemen mentioned would occupy the niche in
fame provided by the Wallace convention MI.
Hart once made himself famous in an Idaho leg
isature by tearing into fragments and consgnlng 10
a cuspdor bill to curta the power of the Oregon
Short Line railroad company in Idaho The measure
thus subjected to the wrath of the sancthed sena-
tor from the constituency of Latter Day Saints was
peculiarly known as the Gooding BILL and the bishop
stated that his ebbulition of chdke temper typhed
his contempt for the governor of the state. The
act opened to him an to fame, for the great
est trust in the western industrial and political STU
alton, the Mormon hierarchy, has rewarded his de-
Tense of transportation trust by clothing him with
the authority of national delegate.
Mr. Cavanaugh a resident of Ada county,
heir to the law practice of Senator Borah, belongs
also to the corporations He is attorney for the Bar
Der Lumber company the Weyerhauser Lumber
company, the Federal Mining company and other
close corporations doing business in Idaho. Mr.
Cavanaugh is therefore satisfactory to the heaven
ly trust as adviser to and pleader for its compan-
ions in the field of monopoly where attention to
the present is the chief guarantee for the future.
Mr. Heigho. of Weiser, is superintendent for the
Pacific & Idaho Northern Railroad company owner
of railroad in Washington county, Idaho He is
corporation man and lobbyist and when all his

He is also part owner of railroad in Shoshone
county and is the close friend of Frank Plasted al
ways lobbyist during the sessions of the Idaho
legislature in the interest of the Oregon Short Line
Railroad company. He can be seen in the photo

legislative session when he sat in the senate The
trusts will not object to Mr. ONeIs presence in the
national convention delegation from Idaho
Mr.. Truitt, resident of Moscow, justice of the
peace and lawyer, has but distinguishing charac-
teristc. He was once appointed, through the inter
vention of Senator Hepburn to help count the money
in the Philadelphia mint This act does not identify
him with the money trust and if he should plead
guilty. there would be evidence against him.
Mr. Brady chairman of the republican state COM
nttee is corporation through interest," associa-
ton and training. He is greatly admired by the
of the Oregon Short Line Railroad and
himself by accomplishing the deafea of
an anti-pass bill in the last legislature He consorts
with trust magnates and is devoted to the of
swollen fortunes. Mr.. Brady's seat in the national
will not be contested by the representa-
ives of trusts and other monopolies
Such are the salient points in the personnel of the
Idaho delegation to the republican national conven-
