STREET WAIF WILL BECOME
THE GOVERNOR OF TENNESSEE

several hundred thousand dollars in
bonds for the purpose of macadam-
izing the roads of the county, these
people demonstrated their confidence
in his integrity and ability by maxi
ing him the treasurer OF the fund.
CAPTAIN Hooper is gifted with per-
sonal magnetism. lie is an attrac-
tive man. and has a keen sense OF
humor He is an orator OF no mean
ability, possessing a magnetic voice.
and he can clothe convincing logic
in words that appeal to the hum
blest. A brilliant opportunity has
come 10 this man who began his life
under such trying circumstances
This opportunity finds him ready
prepared and able to assume the re-
sponsibilitles and honors of the dis
tinguished position offered him.
Fight for Nomination.
When Tennessee Republicans were
recently confronted with the prob
lem of finding a man to lead the
fight against machine rule, IL was
necessary 20 find a man with a clean
record man who was fighter
and a man who would appeal TO the
independent Democrats OF the Vol
unteer state. The Republicans met
for a convention, with a great host
OF aspirants pressing their claims
for the honor. Two days before the
nomination was made, a young man
from the far end OF the state APP
peared on the scene ana firmly an
nounced that he was a candidate for
the nomination. Outside OF his own
division of the state, this man was
practically unknown. lie was the
dark horse OF the hour. This man
was Captain Hooper.
The appearance OF this young
man upon the scene upset the plans
OF the leaders. An effort was made
I to have him withdraw In favor OF
one OF the better known candidates
/ but he refused to back down. and
told the leaders that his strongest
point was in the fact that he wa'
not so well known as some OF the
men in the race. This determine
ton TO fight his battle on the aooT
OF the convention alarmed the lead
ers. and a few hours before the con-
yeution met il was seen that the
dark horse" had the solid support
of the organization In command OF
the situation, and his nomination
was assured.

Montpelier Examiner. During the
campaign in Ada county prior to the
local option election Mayor Rose of
Milwaukee addressed the people Of
Boise in behalf Of the "wets." James
II. Hawley, Democratic nominee for
governor, presided at that meeting
and in introducing Mayor Rose he
took occasion to especially denounce
the local option law as the most in
famous law ever put upon the Idaho
statutes. In his opening campaign
speech few nights ago this same Mr.
Hawley pledged himself and the
Democratic party to maintain the
present law without change, If the
people would place them in power.
1t seems to us that it is the height
Of Inconsistency for man to ask
the people to place him in a position
where he will be compelled to en-
force "the most infamous law ever
placed upon the Idaho statutes"

HAWLEY EVADES TIE REAL
IDAHO ISSUE
No Justification for Democratic Stan.
ard Bearers Attacks Upon
the State Land Board

Careful investigation reveals the
fact that there is. no justification
whatever for the charge made by Mr.
Hawley, the Democratic candidate
for governor, that the administration
OF the state land board has been such
to render it impossible to now Sc
cure capital to carry on legitimate
Carey act projects, has brought to a
standstill immigration to this state,
and lessened our reputation and
standing in the country at large, and
that his reckless assertions are cal
culated to do the state vast injury.
In an interview with Mr.. c., A.
Stanton, a capitalist of Honolulu, who
Is interested in Idaho Irrigation
bonds to the extent of one hundred
thousand dollars, and who has ex-
pressed to promoters of the Lost
River project willingness to An
ance it, says:
Hawaiian capitalists are very
conservative investors and as a rule
they viii not take hold of anything
speculative. They nave recently be-
come interested in. Idaho Irrigation,
bonds for the reason that they ap-
pealed to them as perfectly sound
Investments having the land, the wa
ter right and the efforts of the set
tiers behind them.
: 1T is probable that great deal
more Hawaiian capital will be in
vested in these lands, providing you
do not bring politics into your irri-
cation development, which now seem
to be the tendency, and thus by mis-
representation Of the facts, drive
away capital that would otherwise
be invested in your state.
1T seems to me that irrigation is
something upon which the future of
your state depends, but l must say
that If you do not keep politics out |
of your irrigation developments, that
you will not be provided with our
capital.
II believe that Idaho irrigation
bonds are good investment and l
would like to see more money
brought into your state"
In view of the fact that Mr.. Stan
ton has personally inspected the Lost
river project, what he says is signif-
cant and emphasizes the fact that
Mr.. Hawley is selfish enough to make
personal and party interests para
mount to the good reputation of the
state.
This is beneath the dignity of
clean politics and should be Gen.
,ured by all who have 1dahos best
interests at heart, regardless of their
political Affiliations.
