FORCED to give way to pressure from
all parts of the state centered on
headquarters protesting against the
tieing of a milestone, in John NJ.
Haines, Republican gubernatorial
candidate, to Senator William z. Bora h
without even the latters consent in the
hopes of bolstering up IA weak candi-
date for governor, the Republican
state central committee reluctantly
abandoned it's unprecedented plans Of
fastening a candidate distastcful even
to the members of his own party to
the coat tails Of the most powerful
and popular man in the party, with the
result the joint itineraries plarned by
State Chairman Day and Secretary
Davis for Senator Borah and Haines
have been abandoned. Hereafter these
two candidates will follow out sepa-
rate itineraries.
Scheme Was Injurious.
Condemnation of the tactics en-
ployed by those in charge Of the di-
recting of the Republican state cam
paign was not only local, but was
statewide in opposition to the attempt
to team Senator Borah and John NJ
Haines together without the consent
of the former, which it was believed
when this was done and is still be-
lieved was for the purpose of humiliat-
ing Senator Borah the state chairman
and secretary resorting to the ruse
under cover Of their management of
the campaign. So far the manage
ment conducted in this way has, 1t is
claimed, not served to advance tho
interests Of the party and while 1t has
not injured Senator Borah it has made
a show Of the gubernatorial candi-
date.
Senator Borah left last night for
North Idaho. He was not accompanied
by John NJ Haines. The guberna-
torial candidate has been cut off in
the one man game Of tag" he was
playing With the junior senator and
will mabe his own brilliant campaign
speeches. alone. thereby giving him a
better opportunity to display his ora
torical abilities. Those who heard
his addresses when he tagged Sena-
tor Borah down to the southeast and
back to the southern part of the
state, unlimited by the senator and
without even consulting him. have
been kind enough to refer to the
uuicSScS dS speech
es. They are said to have made a
laughing stock not only for himself
but Senator Borah, for the state COM
mittee is claimed to have attempted
to make II appear both candidates
were making strong and eloquent ad-
dresses.
Trick Exposed; Protests Come In.
= When the trick that was played on
Senator Borah was exposed, through
the publication of the facts, the pro-
test that rolled in from every part Of
the state kept the state chairman and
secretary busy trying to make explain
ations. These were not satisfactory
and the protests still came in, finally
crystallizing In demand that those in |
charge cease the underhanded meth |
DDS to embarrass candidates, and not
only cut Mr.. Haines away from Borah,
but permit the latter to follow out a |
separate itinerary The showing said
to have been made by Haines did not
promote his candidacy and when the |
scheme was exposed, the committee
was severely condemned for the ac-
tion Of the chairman and secretary.
This condemnation came from promi-
nent party men who did not mince
words in their protest, hence the an.
that Mr.. Haines has been
cut off as team mate OF Senator
Borah.
