Gaylord w. Thompson at a recent
meeting in Lewiston. took a stand In
defense of Gov. Brady which aston
ished those present and made some
OF them believe he Is lined up In the
nght for the governors denomination,
says the Lewiston Tribune.
Paul Clagstone was present at this
meeting which was called In his In
terest and where Il was supposed on
" Clagstone supporters were In at
tendance. This made Mr.. Thomp-
sons sudden outburst the more chilli
lng to those who heard him and every
one heard him. Mr., clagstone start
ca matters BY saying that Mr.. Brady
e not sincere IN his advocacy OF pro-
hIbltion and local option. To make
his accusations convincing he said
that when the local option bill hung
IA the balance and IFS friends were
turning every stone TO secure two or
three more votes In order to secure
Sbs passage through the senate they
found they could get the support OF
9wo much-wanted members OF the up-
per house II Mr., Brady. the governor,
would make certain concessions to
these two mon. They FASTENED to the
governor who had promised to help
ehem. laid their plans before him
and asked him to get for them the two
mneh-needed votes by doing certain
things for the two members. One
was to be secured by promise from
the governor that relative OF the
senator should be given particular
appointment. The governor heard the
xeQuest but did nothing. Mr. Clag-
stone asserted that this was his op,
portunity to give the reformers pFac.

added that Mr.. Brady was not sincere

hIbltion except to get the votes and
ahnt he did not want the local option
hiii to pass any more than he wants
enc state now to adopt statewide pro
Afbltlon, which he is said to be advo
