POWER or AND DANGER TO THE

| Special to The Tribune.
BOISE, Ida, May lS.-Thc Rcpubli-

The odds arc very heavily in their ia
vor. The chief reason for this is the
new population has migrated TO Idaho

The great majority Of @ our recent
new population has moved from Iowa,
Nebraska, Minnesota and the Dakotas,
all Republican strongholds.

since 1902, been voting the Republican
ticket with ''religious' zeal; the only

these mcE were elected by almost the
same vote as their party associates on
the state ticket,
Senator Bo.ah, the strongest in
dividual mau IN Idaho today III his
party, but few weeks prior TO clcc-
tion last fall cut off a United States
attorney and United States marshal
and named Successors TO them, neither
of which appointments were popular.
Senator Hepburn, the nominee of his
party for reelection, went before the
people in public address and made n
legal arraigument against the action Of
the state convention IN nominating him;
and, again, another argument defend
ing the same state convention for de.
feating q direct primary plank; while
the candidate for governor, Brady, and
all the other leading speakers in the
state were plcdging the party to dl-
rect primary law.
Thus the Republican party last fall
was u couglomcratc mass Of lncougru-
ous elements. which would have defeat
ed any party not so strong as is the
Idaho Republican party, True, there
was Il sorcly divided Democracy 10
combat, but the normal Republican
majority is very great IN Idaho, else
with all this dead wood 1T would
have suffered defeat.
This is likely 10 make the party lead
ers more intoxicated with party power
ihau before, although the Idaho Re-
publcans have done so many reckless
things in the past that If they get
further out from the heavy vote OF the
MormonS they may lose power in Idaho.
Gov Brady IS not particularly pop
ular either as a candidate or as Il
governor. He is good fellow, a ready
mixer and plays the game all the time.
