$4,000 which it cost to conduct the
Hunt administration returned a net
revenue of only $4,000. while the
$4,000 which the Brady admins
tration has cost has made net earn
ings of 1881. 900. Stated in another
way. the Hunt administration cost
$4,000 and had gross earnings Of
$4,000. The Brady administration
has cost $239.000 and earned S621,-
600. The people will not complain
of increased expenses when they
make money for them. Most any Of
us would spend 4 dollar 10 get q
dollar and a half.
The state auditors office affords
an Illustration OF the better admin
istration that has resulted under re
publican rule. The cost of handling
claims in the auditors office is now
80 cents per claim as compared to
S1.26 under the last democratic ad-
ministration. Under the Hunt ad-
ministration the state t~reasurer's
office cost s5.S75 with no collections
while the cost under Brady's admin
istration has been s17.6e0. with col
l%ections of s"S7.7S5. The insurance
commissioners office under Cover
nor Hunt cost $4,000 and collected
;44.2S2, while under Brady ii cost
sf3.S40 and collected s90,150. The
state engineers office under Hunt
produced no revenue. while under
Brady il has turned s34.S73 into the
state treasury. Ant so it goes in
all the departments.
Now if / have made myself clear
on these figures of actual record Ia
ken from the state house you can
not help but see that the present ad-
ministration instead Of being extrav-
agant has developed the states re-
sources and turned them into money
1t is easy to show that we have ex-
pended more money than the last
democratic administration. but we
are able to give a good accounting
of it. and to show that it has been
made to earn a good venue for the
state.
| want TO thank you for this OPP
p~ortunity of talking to you. / think
the republican party will show an
%unbroken front TO the enemy, and 1
have no fear but that you will Join
with the rest and make this the big
gest victory in the state OF Idaho.

Captain Bartlett Displays Ability
Along this Line.

Along this Line.
Southern Idaho has in years past
furnished a share of crack shots
and such an exhibition as was
held Sunday would not have been
at all interesting to those here at
that time. Today it is different.
Those six shooters have been laid
aside and the exhibition given by MIR
Bartlett vas interesting and amazing
to those of us who did not see the
early days in southern Idaho. This
exhibition brought many stories OF
crack shots and bad men from some
of the old timers who were present
on the grounds and this added to
the interest of the affair.

giving such exhibitions through
the states in this section and is
