The Right Thing.

Governor Brady is decidedly
being showered with con-
gratulations for his prompt and
effective action in ordering and
conducting a land board IN
vestigation of the acts of former
Register M. l.. Church, which
resulted in the acceptance oi
that officers resignation and
the adoption OF a resolution un-
animously disavowing and dis
approving his transactions.
While MIR. Church. after the
publication OF his acts in con
nection with demanding a fee
from Carey act promoters,
denied the same. he acknowl-
edged during the hearing the
truth of the statements made bv
Governor Brady in that connec-
ton. In brief, the admissions
Register Church made to the
governor when called up "or
the carpet by the executive
were that he had entered into
contracts with certain persons
connected with irrigation enter
prise in this state, by which he
was to be personally benefited
In this connection he explained
that he had intended to resign
when lie made the contracts anC
contemplated the prace1cc o.
Carey act law as a speciality
he desired to "line things up
for a successful clientele, and
that the agreements and con,
tracts were made with parties

whom he hoped to later have as
clients.
1t developed at the hearing
that he had so far received no
direct benefit from the contracts;
that he had never exercised his
official position on the board in
behalf of his cllents-to-be; that
while he personally had made a
number ofCarey act filings under
different projects, he had taken
his chances with others; but all
the testimony tended to show
that It was not until Governor
Brady became aware of the
existence of these contracts and
demanded an explanation of the
register, did Mr.. Church present
his resignation to the board.
The inference is justified there.
fore, that while Mr.. Church up
to the present time, has been
guilty of the violation of no
law, he really has been ethically
guilty of rather serious wrong
: DING. His resigna ton was
pi actically an admission of q
,ui!ty feeling
No right minded citizen can
hnd room tor approval of such
\ course AS the former register
pursued. Anv act creative of a
suspicion that in order to sue
cessfully consummate a Carey
act project in this state it is first
necessary to grease the palm"
of any one connected with the
state land board or other de-
partment of the state, must be
frowned upon.
Governor Brady, whose every
othclal act is an open book,
took immediate action in the
matter and has again strength
ened himself in popular esteem.
The entire people OF Idaho know,
both from his acts and his state
ment, that Governor Brady
stands for the very highest
ideals in the discharge of public
duty, just as he stands for the
very highest ideals in private
life. AS chief executive of the
state he demands that sub
ordinate officers observe the
same highest ideals, and it is no
little satisfaction to the
people of Pocatello to know
that the governor. who was
furnished to the state by this
city, has proved conclusively
his correct stand on matters OF
this kind. His friends, his
Aeighbors and all the people of
the Gem state feel measure
OF pride in the governors rec
ord, not only in this matter
OF Register Church. but in all
matters where he has been
called upon to exercise faithful
ness to public dutv and to bring
into play his we'll known char
acter sites of strict fairness and
unassailed honesty .-Pocatello

pronounced changes from traditional
procedure was the segregation of the
women from the lower house coterie and
their evident intention to make their own
sphere of influence apart from that domi-
mated by higher officialdorn The Con-
gressional Club afforded an excellent
channel for this new stream of flow, and
the entertainments given there made a
new epoch in local amenities. Not only
did the real leaders of the Congressional
Club determine to bring to their aid all
the philosophy implied in the conserva-
ton Of forces, but they also set to work
to discover the hidden talent in the club
for the purposes of entertainment and
general improvement.
In Mrs Patrick Francis GIL of ST.

an invaluable assistant Mrs. Gill began
to cultivate her voice during her school
