RATIFICATION OF THE NATIONAL
PLATFORM AND CANDIDATES.

The Republican party of Idaho here
| by reaffirms its unfaltering allegiance
to the principles of the Republican
party as exemplified in the splendid
administrations of Presidents Mckin-
ley, Roosevelt and Taft. We ratify and
endorse the nominations made by our
National Convention at Chicago for
President and Vice President, and the
progressive and constructive platform
If principles there adopted. While rec
ognizing that there existed honest diff
ferences of opinion concerning the
choice of candidates, we feel that the
best interests of our State require the
continuance in power of Republican
National Administration. In this be-
lief, and with confidence in the result,
we pledge to each other and to Repub-
licans everywhere our earnest, ener
getic and loyal support of William H.
Taft for President, and James S. Sher-
man for Vice President. President
Taft has been a firm and consistent
friend of the West, and particularly of
the State of Idaho, as is shown by his
attitude toward such purely Western
questions as the Borah-Jones three
year homestead bill, the various recla-
nation acts, the restoring to public en-
try of large areas of agricultural land
enormously supposed to be chiefly
mineral in character, and particularly
by his order restoring to the State of
Idaho 100000 acres of it's public school
lands which had been included within
forest reserves and of whose use the
State had been unjustly deprived.

EDUCATIONAL INSTITUTIONS.

Our system OF public educational IN
situations should be the first concern
of the people of the State. We therefore
pledge the Republican party of this
State to maintain the integrity of these
institutions, and to support each of
them in maintenance in growth as far
as the finances of the State will allow
recognizing that on the growth and de-
velopment of these institutions depends
the upbuilding of the moral and intel
lectual welfare of the youth of Idaho
And to this end we urge the Legiala-
ture to take up and pass the app,ropria-
ton bills for all educational and char
table institutions as soon after. con-

ENDORSEMENT OF COMPRESSION
AL DELEGATION.

We heartily endorse the effort made
by the Republican members in Con-
gress to secure constructive Republi-
can legislation, and to prevent the en-
actment into law of destructive Demo
cratic policies and we commend to the
people of Idaho such able assistance as
has been rendered IN this convention
by our delegation in Congress, Sena-
tors Hepburn and Borah and Repre-
sentative French. We especially COM
mend to the voters of Idaho the brill
liant and constructive craftsmanship
shown by Senator Borah as evidenced
by his successful advocacy of such
important questions as the three-year
homestead bill, the direct election of
senators and his work for the estab-
lishment of a bureau of child labor,
and the enactment of other progressive
Republican measures.

INDEED WE AS.

Idaho leaves for the Pullman game
as a real republican goes to Borah
meeting-"we as hour opes."
Football is as much of an unknown
quantity (it may be quality, too this
year as is politics. The illustration
is peculiarly apt. Both are working
under new rules. We know what we
think of the rules but just how the
other fellow will accept them is as
Colonel Kipling says, another story"
Was it not for this new element of
uncertainty the sport dopesuer," like
his fellow in politics, would have
something to work on. 1t is a notable
fact that each of the managers of the
three great political parties this year
has figured just how and why his can
didate will be elected. Only one of
them can be right The question is
which coach has the right dope" on
the rules?
Has Pink"
Well. pink" hasn't failed yet. We've
ball into his men until he has per-
formed wonders with nothing -at-all
And we think he has the dope" Also
he has material. For the first time
in years Idaho has men enough to pro-
vide second team that can put up a
scrap worthy of the name
The pink-pated gentleman has been
instilling into them real football, and
something more. He's been injecting
large allopathic does of Idaho pep"
This has been noticeable in the prac-
tice games. That bang 'em-up. back
it-up fighting spirit that has made
Idaho with it's few fellows to pick from
a dangerous quantity in northwest
football has developed so far under
the Pink I'm now that he has some
material, that it has sent a goodly part
OF that material to the hospital.
That isn't criticism on Pink, for
the Idaho pep" is worth more to the
University of Idaho. win or lose, than
all kinds Of Indifferent winning.
Briefly. the facts are these: Idaho
has good material this year. Idaho
has splendid, inspiring coach with
a flame-colored warlock that doesn't
belle its aggressive portent Idaho
goes up against w. S. c.. and it's
Idaho's year to win. There are two
things that can prevent the winning.
One is the fluke that the Pink I'm has
overlooked something in football gen.
eralship. The other is that the hos
pital list is too large and--it is posi-
ble-that the teams overzeal has Grip
pied it.
In short, we're not betting. We as
hour 'opes, but they are somewhat like
democrats election bets. There's the
unknown quantity, the football TX"
against us; there's a hospital list that
isn't encouraging, and there is always
the numerical strength of W. S. C.
On the other hand, we have the old
Idaho spirit. 1t has won for us before.
and it's manifest now 1t has been
in evidence for two nights, and 1t is
to be manifest in great rally tonight.
The Idaho spirit can be summed up

property in the year 1911, before the
necessary changes in our fixed levies,
based upon lower valuation, could be
made, thus causing all the taxpayers
and particularly those of the farming
class, to pay largely increased and I'M
necessary taxes. The present reve-
nue. law, while being an improvement
in some particulars over the old law, is
still far from being solution of the
tax problem, and we pledge the Repub-
lican party to further legislation to
correct existing evils.
The daily star-mirror. (Moscow, Idaho) 1911-1939, 1912-10-17

Under existing methods of disposing
of our State lands, centuries would
elapse ere they are all sold and the adj
administrative costs will in the meantime
be enormous. We therefore pledge
ourselves to submit for approval con-
stitutional amendment that will per-
nit of their sale in annually increasing
quantities at not less than the mini
mum price of $40 per acre.

in these words: Forget it all ant
WIN" That is what we hope to do
And when it is all over tomorrow
we hope to have made a showing suffi-
cjsnt that it will be worth while not to
let Pullman forget it.
We have our fingers crossed. We are
rapping on wood. We are not sure of
anything except that politics are In a
