NATIONAL ELECTORS
INSTRUCTED FOR TAFT
Republican State Central Committee Adopt
Strong Resolutions Endorsing Pres.
Taft and Senator Borah.

Boise, July 11.-Idaho Republicans
are strong for President Taft and
committee, at meeting here yester
day, selected three presidential elec
tors-Nathan Kicks of Fremont, Miles
Cannon of Washington and John B
Hogan of Kootenai who will vote in
the electoral college for the President
and adopted the following resolutions
81. We take advantage of this op
portunity to express our approval OF
the platform adopted by the Republi
can national convention and our 10y
atty to the nominee of that conven
ton, William H. Taft, and to pledge
the Republican party of Idaho to put
forth every endeavOr to bring about
his reelection to the position
he has filled with such marked ad
ministrative ability, with such splen
did devotion to duty, with such in.
spring fidelity to the tenets of true
Americanism and with such unalter.
able consecration to the principles
of constitutional government.
I'VE pledge the nominees of the
Republican party of Idaho for presi-
dntial electors selected this day, to
vote for William H. Taft for presi-
dent in the electoral college.
SO. The Republican party of Ida
no presents as its only candidate for
election to the United States senate
for the term commencing March 4,
1913, it's distinguished leader, William
E. Borah, who, for the past six
years, has represented his nation and
his state in the country's greatest
legislative body in manner that has
reflected the highest honor upon
his constituency at home and at
large. AS a citizen and statesman,
Senator Borah has risen to a place
of potential influence, and the nation
and the state would suffer a loss of
immeasurable proportions If they
should be deprived of his services.
We cannot too strongly indorse the
course of William e. Borah as a
senator of the United States, nor
too impressively point out the wis
dom of continuing him in that place.
We pledge our untiring efforts to
his reelection and the support there
to of the Republican party of Idaho.
We urge that the citizens of Idaho
give Senator Borah a rousing vote
of confidence by supporting Republi-
can candidates for the legislature
who will vote for his reelection

WILSON, ENTERS
PENNSYLVANIA

Harrisburg. Pa, Aug. .29.-Governor
Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey, pres.
idential nominee of the democratic
party, arrived here today and re.
ceived a great welcome. He is the
guest today of the farmers, who are
holding a meeting at Williams Grove,
near this city. and the coming of Gov
ernor Wilson has been turned into a
state affair, as 1t marks the opening
of the governors fight for the presi-
dency outside of his own state.
The thing Governor Wilson hopes
to see brought about in Pennsylvania
is harmony between the Keystone
party and the, regular democrats Both
parties are united in their support of
the Wilson and Marshall ticket. but
there is difference of opinion ov er
the state ticket. Governor Wilson,
while taking no part in the differences
between the men of his party in the
various states, is naturally deeply in
terested and is anxious to give his
advice to leaders who want harmony
because he realizes what it means to
the national ticket in November.
Governor Wilson's address to the
voters of Pennsylvania lays special
stress upon the tariff and the other
economic problems. AS Pennsylvania
has such large foreign-born popula-
ton among the miners, special re-
marks calculated to put the demo.
cratic nominee in favorable light
with the foreigners have been insert
ed into the governors address.
II is probable that Ohio will be the
next state to be visited by Governor
Wilson, who, it is stated, is averse
to making any extensive tours during
the campaign. The national leaders
declare. however, that these is no
truth in the report that Governor Will
son arranges his own dates and acts
independent of the national commit
tee.
