the question as to whom they want to
elect to this position by considering
the two things which they seek, to
find in any man running for a public
office-namely the personality of the
man and the things for which he

which l shall squarely and uncompro-
misingly stand, in the eevnt Of my
election, l shall speak from time to
time during this campaign in various
places throughout the state.
when engaged in school day sports,

good start is half the race" l want
to make good start tonight In my
race for congress. and from low on
expect to take the people of this state
into my confidence and say what

submit for your consideration tonight
a plan which ! have carefully consid
cred and which ! confidently believe
would be the biggest thing the state of
Idaho has ever received In all its past
history.
What His Plan 10.
Here is the plan: This state is
largely made up of arid and semi arid
lands. The former are useless and
valueless without irrigation. Such
lands may be classified under three
heads. ]. Those lands on which a
system of irrigation has already been
established and the work completed
For an example all old systems OF the
Boise and Payette valleys. 9. Those
lands where system of irrigation has
been commenced, but remains unfin-
ished for various reasons. largely
Through the unsufficiency OF funds
such as the King Hill and Mountain
which surveys have been completed
for lack Of funds. like the Bruneau
and Black Canyon projects.
Now let us look at this problem and
see the picture as a whole. Senator
Borah, by his marvellous magnetism
and untiring toll, has fought through
congress and in spite of the adminis-
tration secured the enactment of law
giving the settlers on these various
projects a title to their land without
impossible sacrifices on the part 'of
such homesteaders. He has finished
his job and finished 1t well, and the
people OF Idaho will see that he gets
his pay by a vote so large In next No
vember that his opponents will be
staggered and paralized.
"The land belongs to the settlers. but
of what value are these lands without
adequate water for irrigation? Many
of them are scarcely worth the cost
of the paper on which the patent IL
printed. Now my friends. my Job 10 to
get you the money with which to get
the water. My Job Is to get you $780,
100000. 1t Is q big job. but like big
jobs. II makes the effort worth while.
In my plan ] do not propose to ask
any one of these settlers to repudiate
their contracts. either with the gov
eminent, an individual or a corpora
tion-that would be dishonest. I be-
lieve l can get you this $50.00O.0O0 ON

 During 1912, $1,250,000 will be expend- ed for highway improvement in Wis consin, according to the highway com mission of that State. This announce ment, coming as it does from an off ciaI source, has surprised even the most ardent supporters of state aid, for never before has there been pro- posed so great an expenditure for work on the roads.
 Even little thing like a bent muf- fer discharge pipe sometimes may cause surprising loss of power. What it generally does, however, is to-cause the exhaust gases to seek other out lets-usually through the blowing out or the unseating of the muffler cut out; if that device be of the poppet type and opening outward.
 Radiators on old cars which are not provided with flexible connections to protect them from the effects of frame distortion, frequently can be rendered less prone to spring leak If a pad of thick rubber mating be inserted itself and it's cradle on the frame. The expedient is easily tried, and, whatever it's other effect, has the merit of damp ening much of the vibration to which the element otherwise will be subject ed.
 When the radiator steams it is usu- ally due to one of the following caus- es: Poor fabrication Gndfeated by groans from the motor). not enough water in the system, leak in water sys- tenn, mixture too rich, crack in the cylinder, circulation system clogged (examine hose connections), slipping fan belt and travelling too long with retarded spark It is quite possible that the slipping fan belt is the cause one of the others. If the mixture is too rich at high speed the carbureter needs adjustment, but do not, by any means, attempt to adjust the carbu- other sources of trouble have been exhausted. Running the motor with a steaming radiator is very bad for it.

 The Burgess machine is still in the game with stephen Boucher as cap- tain. His machine made remarka bIe flight of 211 miles making a grand total for his machine 3S6. The Zeppe- lin Dirigible seems to be suffering the same fate that Count Zeppelin's s first machine did in the country of Germany. The crew have deserted Zeppelin No. 1 and have pressed Zep, pelin No. into service. This machine is better equipped to fight against the wind and it is predicted that this is a good omen for her crew.
 At the supper last evening many of the pilots expressed desire for the executive committee of the race to extend the time for this contest so that they cannot only get to San Francisco. but to break the worlds records and fly around the world. This is being considered by the executive committee and will be announced at an early date. The standing of the aerOplanes for the first four days of the Y. NJ. c.

Democrats Decide
 To Put Teeth In Money Trust Probe
Especial from United Press.l

Washington, Feb. 24-Fearing coah- ton between the Democratic insur- gency and Republicans in the House, it was decided today to put teeth in the money trust investigation.
 Faced with the possibility that 50 or more progressives who. with Chair man Henry of the Ru'es Committee, were steam roIlered in caucus, will vote with the Republicans for a real money trust Investigation, the lead CTS sought compromise.
 Majority Leader Underwood sent for Henry and offered to allow an amend ment to the Pujo resolution instruct ing the Banking and Currency Com mittee to investigate, directing that the committee probe such matters touched upon in the House resolu- tion 4O5 as come within the commit tees jurisdiction"
 Reso .ution 4O5 is the Henry measure. Henry agreed to accept the amend ment, which includes in the resolu- tfon strong indictment of the money trust and the prospect for a break in the Democratic ranks was temporarily removed. For three days the pro gressive Democrats had been dickering with the insurgent Republicans who under Norris, CRep., Neb.), and Len root, Rep., Wfs.), will make a fight to secure the adoption of the original Henry resolution.

Factions Unite In
 Opposing Madero
Especial from United Press ]

Fl Paso, Feb. 24-Early today, no word had reached Fl Paso from Pas cuale Oroszco as to his connection with the new revolutionary movement against the Madero government of Mexico or whether he had approved the signing of his name to a mani, festo circulated here yesterday. The manifesto, which bore the name of Oroszco, Emilio Vasquez and a num- Der of other prominent -Iexicans, pro. claimed that Francisco I. Madero has profaned the banner of Mexico with the scurrilous hand of the Yan- kee and American capital has backed him up in his revolutionary move ments."
 The manifesto declares General Geronimo Trevina temporary presi- ident and calls upon MeXicans to wrest the government from Madero and his American packers.
 Although no word has come from Oroszco, Gonzales Enrile. a prominent CientificO during the Diaz an5 De La Barra administration, admitted au- thorship of the document. He said the new movement Is a combination of the Cientifico party with all the factions opposing Madero's in an ef- fort to present a united front against the present government. Many Am ericans think the movement was made to force action by the United States.

Never in the history of aviation have so many aeropIanes made such re- rnarkabIe flights in one day as did the machines entered in the cross country race from Bridgeport to San Francis co on the fourth day of the race. Nine of the ten aercplanes made an early start and many of the pilots did some spectacular stunts in posing their op- ponents to gain first place
 The world wind dash of 493 miles by the Baldwin dirigible, explained by Judge Wilder. took the breath away from the other pilots at the supper last evening. He started with 9 de- termination to lead the race once more and pressed all of his pilots into service, five with himself made suc- cessfui flights. The chief pilot GOV cred 141 miles; Pilot pr. W. J. Me- LaInghlin s1 miles. Pilot T. T. Phil lip S1 miles. Pilot pr. R. H. Strans 95 miles. and Joseph A. Merva who just signed a contract with the judge to take the place of one of his bird men who broke his collar bone in at tempting to fly, covered 95 miles at his first try out, making the total days flight the record breaking sum of 493 miles. The crew of the Bald win tried to land in Chicago, but the
