VICE PRESIDENT
SHERMAN DEAD

Utica, Oct. 30--After long illness,
Vice President James 8 Sherman died
at his home In this city at 9;42 o'clock
tonight of uraemic poison caused by
Bright's disease.
He had been sinking since early morrA
ing and it was realized that death was
a question only of few hours.
There was slight relief shortly after
I o'clock caused by an apparant i'm
provement In the condition of the kid
neys, but it did not prove real or lasting
and at best gave only temporary hope.
AT 8 o'clock the patients temperature
rose to l06. From that time his con-
dition rapidly passed from bad to worse
until the end. MIR. Sherman was un-
conscious when the end came and had
been In that condition for several
hours.
/ Chairman Hilles Of the Republican
national committee shortly before l
O'Clock this morning announced that
he had called meeting Of the national
committee for November 10 in Chicago
to select q successor 70 the late jas. 8.

Hon. Herman III. Taylor the largest
possible vote, to the end that Re-
publican may preside over the legis-
lative body that elects two United

we'll known, is the gentleman who
defeated me for the nomination for

campaign of two years ago, the
Democratic party in this state and
In this county, promised us that il
they we're elected thai they would
materially reduce the running ex
penses of our state and county gov
ernment and would materially re
duce the rate of taxation, but have
they done il? Notwithstanding
the fact that Governor Hawley pro-
missed NV that if he was elected that
all the various departments OF state
would be run upon business,
economical basis TO the end that the
people would be relieved of some of
the burdens of high taxes that had
been imposed upon them, we now
find that the rate of taxation has
been revised upward instead OF
downward.
aThe other question that most af-
fec;s the people of this state, in my
opinion, and compared to which all
others seem TO sink into insignifi =
canoe, is who shall represent the
state of Idaho in the United State,

In my humble opinion no greater

of Idaho and the people thereof

sented Idaho in the United states

TO THE VOTERS OF
BEAR LAKE COUNTY

When a man is chosen to represent
his county in the state Legislature, he
becomes the servant of the people of
his county, and as such servant he Is
honor bound to support all proposed
measures which he believes will
meet with the approval of at least q
majority of his constituents. He is
likewise duty bound to oppose the
passage of any law which he knows
u majority of his constituents do not
want, although contrary to his per-
sonal views. A man who cannot lay
aside his own convictions, when oc-
casion requires, and work for the in
terests of the majority of the people
of his county, has no business seek
ing an election as member of the
law making body of his state.
In this connection wish to say
that If elected member of the legis-
lature on Nov. 9th, shall consider
II my solemn duty to represent the
sentiment of the majority of the pee
pie of Bear Lake county in favoring
or opposing, as the case may be, all
proposed measures which are of
state wide interest. Realizing that
a very large majority of the people
of this county are in favor or retain
the local option law on the statutes,
1 freely pledge myself to vote against
the repeal of that law, or one modify.
ing 1t so as to make 1t less effective,
should such measures be introduced

JAS. DUNN FOR
ASSESSOR

In the write up of the republican
county candidates last week, we un-
intentionally omitted mention of
James Dunn, candidate for assessor
and tax collector.
Mr.. Dunn is a native of Bear
Lake county, having first seen the
light of day at Bloomington 4S
years ago He spent his boyhood
days on the farm, and after COM
pleting q high school education,
together with q course in book
keeping, he returned to farming,
which pursuit he has followed ever
since, with the exception of two
years as ranger IN the Forest SER
vice, for which he passed credi-
table examination. Mr.. Dunn ia
recognized "a one of the substantial
farmers of Georgetown precinct
a section of the county which has
not had representation in the ad'
ministration of county affairs for
number of years. He is Il man Of
good judgment and is well acquain
ted with the value of farm land,
and stock of all kinds. If elected
assessor he can be relied upon u

Office next Tuesday.

Last Tuesday night Senator VIM.
E. Borah addressed the largest polit-
ical meeting which was ever held in
Montpelier. The theatre was pack
ed to its utmost capacity and many
were turned away, in spite of the
miserable weather which prevailed.
Had the weather and roads been
good, it is safe to say that 500 peo-
pie would have been denied the
pleasure of hearing Idaho's distin-
guished senator.
Nearly $50 came over from Paris
and Ovid on the special train. Await
ing the arrival of the train, the Lib
erty band entertained the crowd.
The meeting was presided over by
Judge Alfred Bulge. Before the
Senator was introduced, the large
audience was delighted with vocal
selections by the ladies quartette of
Ovid and the male glec club of PARE.
In introducing the Senator, Judge
Bulge paid him glowing tribute
and briefly referred to few of the
many beneHcent measures which
Senator Borah has fatheied and
worked through congress.
In prefacing his speech, Senator
Borah briefly referred TO the ques-
tion of establishing a water shed for
the protection of the Montpelier
water system and explained the sta
tus of the bill which he introduced
for that purpose.
The senator then in his able and
forceful manner gave All account of
his stewardship in the senate during
the past five end half years, and
announced the lines along which be
proposed 10 work during the next
ak years, if returned TO the senate.
Among the measures which the
Senator championed, are the follow.
ing, which should certainly meet
with the approval of the masses, il
not with the "blg interests:

LOANS FOR POuT-
ICAL FRIENDS

Two years ago Mr.. Hawley and
bis party criticized Governor Brady
very severely for his farm loans. yet
the records show that he himself has
made the largest farm loans ever
made in the state of Idaho, and the
records show that all these large
loans have been made to his person
al friends, his appointees' aud polit.
ical adherants. On May 10, 1911,
farm loan of IS, 900 was made TO
Fred T. Dubois On June 6, 1911,
farm loan of ~, 900 WAS made to
Edda M. Dubois, wife of Fred T.
Dubois.
On February 18, 1911, farm
loan of $4,000 was made to Samuel
J. Rich, Mr.. Hawley's appointee as
| commissioner Of immigration.
On December Is. 1905, the state
made loan to William Rankin,
for 30, 600 on 1870 acres of land.
Mr.. Hawley has increased this loan
TO 100000. This is the largest loan
ever made by the state of Idaho.
These large loans have all been
made in face of resolution passed
by the board that no loans should
be made in excess of 50, 900. 1t is
also provided, in that resolution
that every loan should take i,s
turn. There we're applications
before the land board for fFem
half million to million dollars of
the state money, some of them hav-
ing been on file for several months.
: These applications for loans ranged
. from $500 to $4,000. Il is these
small loans that should have the first
8 consideration. yet Mr.. Hawley in.
d slsts that his personal political
= friends shall be the first ones thai
n shall be considered. Two year
Ie ago Mr.. Hawley denounced Mr.
Is Brady's action on the land board
D. in the loan department, as nothing
In less than an outrage on the smal
:, farmers. We leave you 70 be th
Judge whether Mr.. Hawley ha
s. kept faith with the citizens of thi
state.
