THE STATE HAS FOUND THE MAN.

We make no effort point certain aspects of the
which appeared republican papers the primary
pagn snerng There is need for perseverance for
undoubtedly the statements made by several republican papers
concerning Brady and Hanes, prior September L.
honestly made and with full sincerity of purpose and belief
in airing conscientious views The statements carried truth
and do not expect to apologies the part of the
editors who made them reencment in their positions
We expect that the majority will hold their and
maintain retcence and silence while supporting the general
republican interests Others will doubtless sneak back to
their masters feet and wnngy lick his boots and beg for
pity, in fear Of loss of patronage
Do you suppose that the Rchfied Recorder would or
could rerac its statements made in criticism of John Hanes
just previous the primary election? While its predictions
that Iaines would be defeated for nomination not full
filled yet its criticisms of the hit the mark and
undenabe Here an extract from the editorial which APP

That about easy the Recorder could let him
down. 1.-The state MUST find some who cam The words
hopeful but republican found and Hanes was cram
med down the Grand Old Parys throat In other words the
hopeful setting hen still is setting the china egg.
The republicans did not find the man, but available
mat man is Moses Alexander honest capable and intelligent
business man first party last Plenty experience
in the matter of public service The who says he WILL and
does.
Not word of criticism can be heard against Alexander
The reason readily appears from his past He said that
ne would give BOISE clean and economical administration
ITS MAYOR and after he elected he did methods EN-
poyed III ms own private business affairs to down expenses
were used in the city administration with good results
BOISE admits his worth There choice of methods
the administration of government affarsa political or
business method We have always had too much of the former
and prefer the latter
We that not word criticism can be uttered against
n ana MAINTAIN the position. OF if you would class
the sneers OF the Nampa Leader remarks about
Nose Alexanders cheap and silly talk as criticism we will
ied the point But do you remember the Haines slogan
your tax receipts to the polls above referred to by the
other paper quoedg Do you remember the proestatons
against extravaganza and his brag of ability reduce
John Hanes evidently beched forth those statements at
ms last campaign for election egosca belief in his ability
to perform in evident nsncery and with no intention What
ever to SO remedy dahos overaxed condition He must either
have believed that he could reduce and at the same time
had no such intention of doing it, else he knew that his
statements IN that respect false in their en-
ure made with knowledge of their falsty and with an in
tent TO deceive No other deduction made The Mamma
paper could truly apply cheap and silly or even scrmn
all to these promises They deceptive and misleading
The fact that such talk the Hanes proved be
merely buncombe is for saying that Mr. Alexander
is making statements with the intent and to the same Of
feet There great difference the statements now being
MADE by Alexander and those formerly made Hanes The
people know and believe that the reduced and be
are confident OF Aexanders sincerity and his ability do as
he says he will do.
Alexander presenting the for believing that he
has the ability to reduce taxes He pointing out the
ent discrepancies and extravaganza the republican admins

MADE promises before and kept hem making them now and
e people are satisfied that he will perform as we'll He
