THE SENATORIAL QUESTION.

From every country in the state
coInees exactly the same cry as ii
heard from the democratic candi-
datees for the legislature from this
county Sine the death of Senator
Hepburn, the democrats have taken
on additional activity and In each
county is heard the same plea from
Legislative candidates. They claim
loyalty to Senator Borah. knowing
that the people of Idaho demand
his return TO the senate, and In
this attempt at enthusiasm for Mr..
Borah' they hope to keep from the
minds vi tho republican voters the
Tact that two senators are to be
elected this year.
Senator Borah will no doubt be
returned TO the United States sem
ate, but syen the most loyal support
era among the democrats hope to
give TO Idaho u democrat for the
second senator. The eyeu OF the
nation are now turned to Idaho to
command control OF the senate. Is
II reasonable to assume that should
the election prove that two senators
Idaho would give the demo-
Gratis control OF the United States
senate hat a deemocrat would vote
with the republicans in naming a
senator. Should Borah be returned
with "a democrat 1t would place him
III q peculiar position. a position
nearly pc werless to work and COM
pieteiy powerle6s as far as his vote
Is concerned. The national ques-
lions coming before congress upon
which democrats and repu blicans diff
Ter would place Idaho In the zero
column. Borah would vote to up
hold those principles and the dem
orat would vote with the democrats.
This county Ia not the only county
In which the democratic candidates
are crying friendliness to Borah In
The hope TO shadow the real sena-
torial situation. Think well over
this question before you entrust the
naming of Idaho's senators in the
hands OF democrats.

ia sending out the directions to
the various progressive leaders ie
now evident and the position OF
the pr~ogressives, or some OF IneH
at least explained.
In the letter written by Geo. p.
Hill, secretary of the Democratic
state central committee, he advises
a certain worker in the progressive
party of southeastern Idaho to MADE
an attack upon the decision OF the
supreme court relative to their de-
clsion upon the matter OF placing
the James OF the Roosevelt eiec-
tors upon the ballot. He says the
democrats can not do 1t for 1t may
drive some dissatisfied republicans
back into their party. but it the
attack should come from the pro-
g~ressives it would not have that
effect. The letter says that the
Capital News would attend TO Inc
attack in that part of the state, but
Ii he could get the patter into his
local paper it would help the cause.
The letter proved to the man who
had received 1t that a combination
had been formed between the pro-
gressives to assist in the election OF
the democratic ticket and does not
propose to be a party to such form
OF progressiveism. The letter fol-
lows:
Boise, Idaho. Oct. 10.-Dear
Sir.-Relative to the supreme court
decision rendered ON Tuesday knock
ing the names of the presidential
electors OF the Roosevelt party off
the ballot In this state, wish to say
there Ia a good chance for an ar
gument to the people to the effect
that the court has made a mistake
because In passing a matter Of this
kind up to the people. upon which
they yer going to vote. no pos
sible harm could have resulted to

WHAT HE HAS \

In speaking OF the record of GOV
ernor Hawley the Pocatello Tribune
says; He has not made good a sim
gle pledge or promise given to the
people two years ago. The state
mas zee operating on an extrava-
CANT basis and many of the funds
are exhausted. and he has INDUCED
In a good many joyridesthrough the
various parts of the country. and
the proper accounting has not been
made.
He has taxed the people to the
limit and In that respect has yiolat-
ed common right In that he did not
$ ordinar intelligence in forcing
an Anticipated law without first con-
sidering that it did not provide
TOT a sane levy. He has assumed
an arbitrary front to the taxpayer.
and a said he don't give a 'damn''
what people thought regarding tax
alton. and all in all very little up
on which he can stand In this cam
paign-but he still wants the Job.
what has he to offer 1t is not
SHOWN nor does he state In his
speeches that he will remedy any
condition, but he has talked on the
defensive at all times and p
TO have no remedy. He is SO in
tent upon ~bolstering his bal record
that he is using every su bterfuge to
cover deficiencies and bad manage
and expects the people to fol-
low blindly once more in face of
The fact that his administrator has
been solely bad for the state and its
industries and it's people.

Also. in tbs day and age OF the

which would have given them d

1.-THE Roosevelt crowd and the
Capital News here will take care
of this. but If you could get some
of the dissatisfied republicans or
progressives in your city to write
a communication to your republican
paper, stating these facts, and III
this way get them to publish the
matter, it would be a good tnlns.
Your paper would doubtless do this
for some of it's advertising patrons
and in this way the political lean
ings of the supreme court could be
brought before the people. Also
Judge Stewart, who is running again
would be accused of letting politics
govern him in making this decision
rather than the law, of which there
is very little inIdaho governing this
question. and it should have been
construed literally. Don't let it
be known this comes from anyone
officially connected with the demo-
cratic party"

and does not want to trust that re-
sponsibility In the hands OF a demo-

in mind that the governor urged
the voters OF this county to support
u. w. Davis for the senate and the
republican nominees for the house.

Those who heard the address of
Senator Borah last Tuesday can not
doubt the friendship existing be-
tween the senator and D. w. Davis,
republican nominee for state sena-
tor from this county. Not only Is
Mr.. Davis and Mr.. BOrah personal
friends but Mr.. Davis candidacy on
the republican ticket pledges him
to support Borah for reelection at
all times. The senator's return to
the United States senate means a
great deal to the people Of Idaho
and Oneida county as a republican
county and a large and important
part of the state, should not fail to
do it's part towards returning Borah
to that position which he has SO
ably filled. The safe way to do
this is to vote for Mr.. Davis for
the senate and Henderson, johnson
and Nelson for the lower house.
