F. r. Gooding
for u. S.
Senatorship
Dear Sir:

OF your paper OF my candidacy
tor the United States Senate in
the primaries OF 1914 fl am
successful in the primaries in be
coming the candidate of the Re
publican Party l promise to
make vigorous fighr for my
election to the United States
Senate.
1t was my good fortune to
come to Idaho just at the end of
my boy yhood days. Thirty-two
years ago on the 3Oth dav of
April | became resident OF Ketc-
hum, then a mining camp, in
the Wood River country. | have
seen Idaho grow from a sparsely
settled territory until today it
ranks as one of the great States
of the Union: From first Idaho
has been kind to me, and | love
=
plains, and | love her people.
have grown up with the State
and | feel that | am a part of
this mighty commonwealth, for
III a public way | have had much
to do with its growth and devel-
opment. Having served the
people of Idaho twice as Cover
nor and in other public Offices,
l know its needs and its condit-
ions about as well as the bOv
knows the old homestead.
cannot tell the people of
Idaho in words how much |
should appreciate the great hon
or OF representing them in the
United States Senate. If | am
elected | can only promise to
give them all there is in me as a
public servant. For the first
time the people will have an op-
portunity to choose their Senator
by direct vote, and ask the
support OF all the good citizens
of Idaho who believe me qualifi-
ed to represent them in the Unit
ed States Senate.
have been Progressive in
politics long before there was
any division in the party or any
talk about a Progressive Party
For years | have been fighting
for the control of all public ser
vice corporations by the people,
and my record as a public officer
and as private citizen will bear
me out III this statement.
From boyhood have had
something to do with the polite
al machinery of this state.
have represented my County and
State in State and National Con
ventions. | have acted in the
capacity of County and State
Chairman for my party. |
know that until few years
ago politics III Idaho were whole
some, clean and honest. | am
sorry to say that that is nor
true III Idaho today. In no
States in the Union is there
more deplorable condition polir-
Icailv than can be found in this
State. Beginning with the Bra
dy and O'Neil campaign many
things have been done that are
a stencil in the nostrils of every
honest man who knows any
thing about the political condit-
ions of Idaho. For this | hold
Mr. Brady more responsible than
anv other individual.
1t is not strange that a man of
@ dnaty means hesitate to enter
the political arena oi Idaho on
the Republican side of the issue.
For the first time | find myself
hesitating to become a candidate,
for | know that through the ex-
travagant use of money con
dition exists in this State that
makes it embarrassing for the
honest man to become a. candi-
date for so high an office AS that

Hot Shots For Edward Bohm
of Chicago.
Governor Hanes Takes to Task Man Who Cen.ures
Idaho State Officials
Vindicates Himself From Grave Charge and Deman
Correction of False Charges


Governor Haines does not
take kindly to the kind OF public
ity given the state by Edward
Bohm of Chicago, H.. through
the columns of the irrigation
Age. and he has evidently deter
mined to handle that gentleman
without gloves for some of his
statements made in relation tC
the Big Lost river Carey act pro
ject. In an open letter addressed
to Mr.. Bohm the governor gives
the other side of the picture apC
shows the gentlemen up II
somewhat the colors of muck
raker. The Governors letter
follows:
MIR. Edward Bohm, care the
Irrigation Age. Chicago, ILL.,
Sir: 1t is evident from your
open letter published in the Ir-
rigation Age for October, as
. we'll as from the references YOU
append to your signature, that
you attempt to qualify as one
ha wing expert knowledge OF
Carey act matters, but it is
Just as evident that you are en-
tirely lasting in fairness in
your treatment of the question
which cOntronts the land board
and the people OF Idaho today.
Tins question cannot be solved
by bootless discussion ut what
might have been, or by railing
a, the state OF Idaho or it's
officials, past or present.
Serious Mistake Made.
LET it be admitted at the
outset that serious mistakes
were made in the financing and
construction of a small per
centage of our irrigation pro-
Jects, and that these mistakes
have been responsible for much
loss and suffering to individ-
uals and for the arrested deve-
lopment of our irrigation ent-
erprises. The account you give
of your relations to the Big
Lost river project is probably
correct, except your statement
that the land board announced
that would hold first payments
on his tract in escrow. In
this you are not borne out by
the gentlemen TO whom you
refer, nor by the land board
records. Your story does not
differ ma materially from that OF
many others. nor does it help
the present situa ton. nor bring
us any nearer the solution we
are seeking.

Miss" Queen Bread will receive her numerous admirers today at the Model Bakery, celebrating her flrst birthday, and a cordial invitation IS extended the ladies of Pine Bluff to call and inspect her home.
 One year ago today Alex strauss IT,, opened the doors of the Model Bakery and invited the people to come in and see the four employees make and bake a bread which has since become famous as Queen Bread, not only in this city, but in adjacent cities. where Mr. Strauss ships daily. With a modest start and the four loyal and enthusiastic employees, the business has grown steadily and the employees now number ten and the output is eagerly bought day by day by a large number of customers.
 All visitors today will be presented with souvenir and invited to closely inspect the bins, mixers, ovens, and other paraphernalia neces- sary to the production of the excel lent bread which comes from the Model Bakery.
