Taking UP the affairs of the lam,
board Governor Brady declared tina
when he found that there was some
thing wrong he righted the wrong
lie said that at the last session OF th
legislature he tried to get a law pas
sed providing for q carey act com
mission, but Secretary of State Lans
don succeeded In defeating lit He
sand that ii Lansdon had been guilty
OF wrong doing this could not be pre-
vented, as Lansdon was an elective
officer and could be removed only by
impeachment by the Legislature Gov.
eauor Brady said in defense of the
other members OF the hand board tina t
he believed Miss Chamberlain and
General McDougall had acted honest
ly ais members of The board.
Governor Brady created much laugh
ter by reading two statements from
an address made by Mr.. Hawley. In
one Mr. Hawley said that Governor
Brady, as chairman of the land board.
was responsible for every act of the
board, while later DIN the same ad-
dress he appealed to the voters to
elect the other democratic candidates
as he would be powerless to carry
out the reforms which he had prom
Used without the aid of other mem
bers OF the state boards.
In answer to the charges of MAX
ing bad farm loans Governor Brady
took up the case referred to by hi1
opponents and showed THAT the lands
We're worth much more than the
amounts loaned. He said the trouble
with the democrats was that they
could not realize that the hand is
worth more to-day than it was ten
years ago.
Much amusement was caused by
Governor Brady's remarks i'm regard
to the "trip to Seattle by himself and
staff, and also i'm regard to the Idaho
exaibihs at the exposition He de-
MED that Wine or liquor of amy kind
was served at the much talked of
Portland dinner. "How would you have
your governor go to the exposition"
asked the governor amid cheers and |
laughter from the audience. He
declared that Idaho had the smallest |
of amy of the western
states represented at the exposi tion,
and yet it had balance TO it's credit
after all expenses had been paid.
He then referred to the statement of
.he democratic speakers that Idaho
people who had visited the exposition
vene SO ashamed OF the states show
ng that they would not admit they
we're Idahoans. In referring to this
statement he brought forth the award
made to Idaho on exhibits of fruits,
and grains.
The trouble with our democratic
rtends is that they are making a. great
uss about pennies and are overlook
ng millions" declared Governor Bra
y. "They have nothing to say about
'ur schools, our asyllms, our peni+
entaary, Our university or amy of our
Institutions. There has been no ,
in connection with any OF the
