can state headquarters today. Relent-
less activity seems to prevail in all II
departments, and 1t is learned that 1t
is to be inferred from reports coming
In from all parts of the state that the
outlook Is decidedly favorable for Gov
ernor Brady and the entire state tick
ct. The ablest Republican orators In
the state are In the field. Harmonious
conditions exist throughout the state
among the Republicans. State issues
under discussion and the Republican
party's unquestionable attitude to- Il
wards them are causing great exO-
dus from the Democratic ranks, and +
all signs when considered collectively +
point to great Republican victory, i
The concerted action upon the part I
OF Mr.. Hawley and his advisers to
concentrate their attacks upon the adj
ministration OF the state land office, is /
availing nothing, since all charges up
on this line are being effectively re-
futed that no credence Is to be attach
ed to them A full realization exists
| that they are given publicity for the
specific purpose OF excluding issues,
| not to the advantage of Mr.. Hawley |
and his party to discuss.
II general comment by the business
men of Boise, regardless Of their poll
/ tical affiliation, can be relied upon,
Governor Brady will receive the al
most unanimous support OF the busi-
ness interests OF the state, because of
| the reason that careful investigation
/ reveals that every department OF the
state government is in healthful con-
j dition, indicating that Gov. Brady's adj
/ ministration has been, in the best
sense of the term, thorough business
administration and that, as conse-
quence, it would be illogical to swap
bosses in crossing stream" and per-
haps, as result, arrest the progress
1 of the state.
!. That there is absolutely nothing in
the charges made by Mr.. Hawley upon
the administration of the state land
board calculated to reflect upon Gov
ernor Brady or the Republican party
is evidenced by Governor Brady's posi-
ton and the records of the state gov
errnment which are to be regarded as
an open book subject to the inspec-
ton of all There is no effort on the
part Of Governor Brady to meet
charges against his administration
with any measure of reservation, con-
cealment or evasion. To the contrary,
as might have been expected Of an
the recognition Of the principle that
"a public office is public trust" he
has courted for his record the closest
investigation. The effort of Mr., Haw-
ley to mislead and cause the real is
sues Of the campaign to be lost sight of
by charges against the administration
of the state land office has failed to
assume the proportions and potency
that its originator had intended they
should Considerable of the enthus-
iasm of those who sought to make
these charges 80 prominent was OBJ
served to have spent its force when
due attention was called to the fact
that Governor Brady in the very in
ception of his administration had re-
commended the creation OF Carey
act commission to lessen the already
over-burdened work of the state land
land board and expedite the business
of the state and that through fear
of giving the Republican party In
creased power by the patronage thus
created, the Democratic leaders OF the
state, through the Democrats in the
senate, defeated the governors recon-
mendation Thus did just retributior
follow, and the responsibility SHIFTED
itself to the Democratic party, its righ'
source.
Another matter upon which the
Democrats base great hope, and which
they evidently early In the campaign
thought sufficiently potent to absorb
public attention, and thereby serve
their purpose, suddenly, to their dis
comfort, lost its purported signiflc
ance This was the charge relative t.
the Irregularities of one or two EN-

was not evaded in the least, but wal
met with perfect candor. 1t was shown
that these Irregularities were brough
to the attention of the Governor, ant
that, in line with his custom of faith
fully performing his duties, he instant
ly brought about their dismissal, AM
boldly gave the matter publicity an
then and there reiterated all he ha
said in the beginning of his admins
tration, relative to the necessity Q
legislation affecting the creation of
Carey act commission. He espresso
himself so forcefully that as result
in Difference to his wishes and tn
apparent necessity for the commission
his party went on record pledgfn

he Another fact that is the subject 6
to much comment here, and which is
matter of qualification to the Reput
licans and discomfort to the Demo
