And His Office.


dress, which, for frankness and con-
vincing argument, has seldom been
equalled in this city, started the
Republican craft upon its way.
The Governor arrived in our city
over the Great Northern, toward
evening of Monday, and was met at
the depot by large delegation OF
local Republicans, headed Ivy
Com mitteeman w. A. Alexander,
also a number of prominent Repub-
licans and candidates from Sand
point, headed by County Chairman
Herman H. Taylor with the Hon.
Paul GLADSTONE and Senator Whit
aker. The Governor shows no Ill
effects from his recent experience
in the automobile accident, hut is
full of energy, good nature and en-
thusiasm, characteristic Of him at
all timea. He is ssnguine of sue
cess for the entire Republican
ticket, and the Herald believes has
the best of reasons for being so.
A large and attentive audiance
greeted him at I.O.O.F. hall, where
he spoke at 8 o'clock in the even
ing. By request of Committeeman
Alexander, II. j. Jones opened the
meeting by introducing the Hon.
Paul Clagstone as chairman OF the
meeting. Mr.. Clagstone in short
address, told OF the work of the last
legislature and of the consistency
of the Governor in urging the full
iillment of the party pledges OF two
wears ago. He then introduced
VIM. Costello, candidate for County
Attorney, who in few we'll chos-
en- remarks, referred to the work
accomplished by Governor Brady's
administration, and called atten-
ton to the necessity for deter
mined enforcement of the Local
Option law as well hs all other
laws. Stating that the enforcement
of the former would no doubt make
stronger than ever the belief that
we voted right when we closed the
ealoons in Bonner County. Mr..
Clagstone, with few more words
of recommendation OF the Cover
nor's official record, then introduce
} ed Mr.. Brady.
He was enthusiastically greeted
by the large assemblage and fol
over an hour held his audiance IN
rapt attention, frequently punctu'
: ated by applauses. He touched
briefly many points in his Official
} acts as Governor, explaining frank
ly and clearly all matters in which
the opposition is accusing him o.
shortcomings; Especially the rec
ord OF the State Land Board. HI
made it very clear that he hac
gone to the limit of his officia
power in combining the actions o
this board within the lines of stric
honesty, and by purifying the per
sonpel of the board, by discharg
. ing all wrong doors whom he hat
The power to discharge from office
:. He will ask the next legislature, a
he did at the last session, for tn
creation OF a non parties Carey Ac
Land Commission to take over thi
branch of the duties of the Stat
Land Board. He then discussed
in detail each and every plank il
b the Republican State, platform
commencing the wisdom and i'm
portance of all things therein ad
vocated, and his intention Of ure
ing the passage of laws to carry OF
o the doctrine of the Republican pla1
