COUNTY PLATFORM.

We, the undersigned. Chairman
and Secretary of the Idaho Coun-
ty Republican Platform conven-
ton held at Grangeville, Idaho,
September 20, 1910, do hereby
certify that the following is the
Idaho County Republican Plat
form as adopted by said conven-
ton on said date:
Resolved, that we endorse
the national administration. and
view with pleasure the wise. bust
nesslike administration of Presi-
dent Taft; we endorse the State
Republican Platform as adopt
ed in Boise SEPTEMBER 20. 1910,
and the splendid administration
of James H. Brady.
We recognize agriculture as
he leading industry Of the state,
and believe that every reasonable
effort should be made to enact
just and reasonable laws. such as
viii elevate and protect the farm
ing interests.
We pledge our legislative can
didates to support an effective
pure seed law, a noxious weed
law, and a trespass law such as
will protect the farmers fields
and stock against careless and IT.
responsible hunters.
Fully approaching what has
already been accomplished by the
Grain commission in the way of
breaking up dishonest warehouse
CRAFTS, we favor putting all pub
lie scales under the supervision
OF the Grain commission; the adj
ding of a pure seed inspection de-
partment, and providing suffic-
lent appropriation for the most
effective work of the commission.
Resolved, that we favor such
a law as will give the people a
right to recall dishonest public
officials, repeal unjust laws. and
pass meritorious legislation over
the heads of corrupt legislatures.
We realize the necessity of
honest capital combined for the
purpose of developing our natur-
al resources, giving employment to
our labor, and providing for the
general comforts of the people !.
but, when combinations of CAPT
tai become oppressive. they should
be placed under state and nation
al control.

the transportation of the state.

PLEDGES OF THE PLATFORM
OF 1908 FULFILLED.

The Republican party presen Is
its candidates and this platform
to the citizens of Idaho with in-
creased confidence that both will
meet with their approval. This
confidence is born of a record of
promises fulfilled. Its platform
pledges of 1908 were carried ont
to the letter by republican gov
ernor and republican legisla-
ture. Our party, in its conte st
two years ago, pledged the en-
actment of local option law,
antitrust legislation, a law for
highway improvement, an en-
ployers' liability law and sever al
other important reforms. All of
these and much more progressive
and reformatory legislation is
now upon the statute books Of our
state as a result of the work of
this political organization. In adj
dtion to this magnificent record,
the party has given to our citi-
zens primary election law which
enables the people of each politi-
cal organization to decide direct
ly who their candidates shall bd.
ENDORSEMENT OF PRESI-
DENT TAFT'S ADMINISTRA
TION.
We congratulate our party and
the country upon the record mad
by our president William III
Taft. Without ostentation or dis
play, but with calm, dispassion-
ate and judicial action, he has
proceeded to carry forward tC
fruition the mighty work starte6
by his illustrious predecessor
Theodore Roosevelt. He has sue
eeeded in having enacted into Law
practically every great refo I'm
pledged by his party and approx
ed by the people at the polls.

purchasers that frHt trees snail

GRAIN COMMISSION.
We favor such Nendmentfs to
the gram commission law md
such adequate appropriations for
the use ofthe grain commissions of
the state as will make fully eff
fective the work of such comrais-
sion, especially toushing the in
spection and contcOl of puslic
scales and the inspection and
grading of grain, that thereby
a market for Idaho grains upOn
Inspector classification will be
established.
NONP ARTIZAN STATE R41IL-
WAY COMMISSION.
We pledge the party to the en-
actment at the next session OF the
Legislature of a law providing for
a nonpartizan State Railway com
mission, to be comprised of ahree
men,. who shall be appointed to
said commission because of their
special fitness for said work.
EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM.
Our system of public education
al institutions. consisting of the
numerous public schools aad high
schools of the state, the Normal
schools at Lewiston and. Albion,
the Academy of Idaho at Poca-
tello, the school for the deaf and
blind at Gooding, the State In
dustrial school at St. Anthony,
and the University of idaho, conn
posed of a college of letters and
arts, the college of agriculture
and the college of engineering,
located at Moscow should be the
first concern of the people of the
state We therefore pledge the
republican party OF this state to
maintain the integrity of these
state institutions as described by
the act creating them and to sup
port each of them in maintenance
in growth as far as the finances
of the state will allow, recogni1-
ing that on the growth anddevel-
Spment of these Institutions de-
ponds the upbuilding of the moral
and intellectual welfare Of the
youth of Idaho. And to this end
we urge the legislature to take
up and pass the appropriation
bills for all educational and char
liable institutions as soon after
converting as possible, and before
the other work of the legislature
shall be taken up.

PRIMARY LAW UPHELD.

We compliment the citizens of
Idaho upon the passage by a re-
publican legislature Of our pres
ent direct primary law, and while
favoring changes in the same that
the recent election suggests, we
reaffirm our allegiance to the
principle of nomination of candi-
dates by direct vote of the peo-
pie.

CONSERVATION OF NATURAL
RESOURCES.

We earnestly favor such a pol
ley of conservation as will safe
guard and protect our natural re-
sources from waste, extravaganza
and monopoly. Conservation does
not mean nonuSe or nondevelop-
ment. 1t does not mean the ty-
ing up of the natural resources
of our state. 1t means the utiliz-
alton of those resources under
such regulation and control as
will prevent waste, extravaganza
and monopoly and at the same
time not merely permit but en-
courage such use and develop
ment as will serve the uses of the
people generally We believe that
the national government and the
state government should cooper
ate in the carrying on of this
2ta in the carrying on of this i'm
important work and that such
rights and powers as belong TO
! the national government should
be by it exercised, and that such
rights and powers as eblong to
state government should be main
tanned, preserved and exercised
by it. In other words. that we
should accept the plain terms of
the constitution as our guide and
proceed in good faith to protect.
preserve and dedicate these natur-
al resources to the use of the peo-
pie.

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
AND FAVORING THE CRFA-
TION OF A TARIFF COMMITS

The Republican party believes
IN protective tariff. It will put
forth its efforts to retain this pol
ley at all times, but that it may
retain and secure its full benefit

people Of Idaho, and we have an
abiding faith that they will APP
plaud and sustain him by an in
creased majority at the polls in
November.
ENDORSEMENT OF IDAHO'S
DELEGATION IN CONGRESS
Idaho's delegation in the con
gress of the United States has a
record of which all our citizens
should be proud. They have sus-
tanned the president in his great
work and have faithfully toiled
for Idaho in all matters coming
before the national congress.
While our state is one of
the youngest in the Union. she
has representation in Congress
quail in ability and character to
any in the Union. We are espe-
cially gratified that their com
handing ability is recognized not
only there but throughout the
country, and that they have
achieved for themselves and their
state national fame. The welfare
of Idaho depends upon the sue
cess of Republican principles and
her representatives have safe
guarded her interests in all legis-
lative matters coming before
the national government and
have been foremost in champion
ing the cause not only of Repub-
licanlsm, but of all the people in
that great forum.
CAREY ACT COMMISSION.
We pledge the enactment of a
law providing for non-partisan
Carey act commission with full
and complete powers under the
constitution to manage and con
troll and safeguard the Carey act
matters and all matters relating
to the disposition Of public lands
under said act. We believe this
work of disposing of the lands
under the Carey act has grown to
such proportions and is of such
vital Importance as to requir
the exclusive attention of a com
petent board in order that the in
terests of the state and the set
tiers may be fully and completely
safeguarded and protected
STATE OFFICERS AND EN-
PLOYES PROHIBITED IRON
BEING CONCERNED IN THE
DISPOSAL OF CAREY ACT
LANDS.
We pledge the party to the en-.
actment of a law making it a
criminal offense punishable by
Imprisonment in the penitentiary
for any official or state employe
or appointee having any lining to
do, directly or indirectly, with
the disposal of our public lands
under the Carey act, or otherwise
to acquire any interest directly
or indirectly, in any lands dispos-
ed of by the state, or to accept,
directly or indirectly, from any
person, association or corpora
lion, any reward, compensation
or thing of value, for any ser
vices performed or for any pur-
pose in connection with the dis
posal of said lands.

We believe that the settlers
who go upon the public domain
and cultivate and improve their
land in good faith and reside up
on it for three years have given
sufficient evidence of their good

therefore favor the shortening of
the residence period for home

Marshalltown, Sept. 26.-Special:
The Marshall county fair was so large
and so successful this year that the
executive board has been besieged on
all sides with requests for improve
ments in every department. 1t will
be necessary to increase the display
room for horses, although large new
display barn was erected this year,
and more room must be provided for
cattle, hogs and sheep. The show OF
poultry this year was almost as large
as that at the state fair, over 1000
birds being shown. 1t is now neces-
sary to find more room in this depart
ment. The advisability OF building
more display barns and sheds is now
being discussed.
