is travelling over the northern part Of
Idaho os;ensibly on official business. but
really TO give the Republicans OF north
Idaho TO understand that "his people
the -MormonS. are with Governor Brady
for re-election
In an interview given to the Lewiston
Teller on October {, this obedient saint
from the southland gives utterance to q
few startling suggestions, aimed 10 per-
petuate In power the coalition between
his party and his church. through which
he has been. and hopes TO continue to
be the financial beneficiary:
The people OF The southern part of
the state" he said. "have been more di-
.rcctly affected by the acts OF the present
administration than the people OF north
Idaho. THIS is particularly true in the
great irrigated sections where Governor
Brady received his greatest vote AZ the
recent primary election. The action OF
the settlers in rallyng TO his support
amounted to nothing more or less than
an Endorsement OF his policies and rec
ognition OF his bUsinesslke methods
The sentiment among the rank and
file OF the party In that section OF the
state is that il we have made any err
rors they are errors of the party and
not oftany one individual. and that We
must stand together for common
cause. and correct our own mistakes.
When the Republican party maue lis
platform two years ago ii was accepted
by the people OF the state. and every
one of it's provisions has been carried
out faithfully by the present administra-
tion.
We have every reason TO believe that
the. present party platform will be car
red out by the nominees on the Re-
publican state ticket provided they have
he support OF a Republican legislature.
We can only Judge the future by the rec
ord Of the past but if we are to be in
lions of principles. Republicans must
stand together and support both state
and county tickets, abandoning little
petty differences"
