public for another term the service of
a man who confesses by his settlement
that he was guilty of he original

business man would for moment think
of reemploying a clerk who had under
taken through clandestine methods to
get hold of something that did not be-

Now we have a tremendous trust

the state and it is our duty to guard
II with the utmost vigilance This
trust fund of the state coming from
the sale of our public lands and sub
ject to management by public officials
belongs to the children and our chill

Indifferent as to the conduct of those
who have to deal with it in it's early
history, how long will it be until there
will be built up around this great trust
fund a coterie of petty larceny thieves.
We owe it not only to the party, Day,
but we owe it to the people. 1t is for
the state of Idaho to see that the man
who is Indifferent and careless as to
the use of that fund and its manage
ment is retired to private life. You
say that he Is determined to stay on
the ticket and that the matter, as l
understand you, is beyond the control
of the committee. Well, Day, 1t is not
beyond the control of the voter and it
is not only the duty of the voters to
duty or the Republican organization to
see that he is defeated. So far as l
am concerned, l simply will not over
look such a matter 1 shall not bother
you or the committee again after this.
