SENATOR BRADY RETURNS HOME
Will Start Active Campaign for Re-
Election in This State

Washington, D. c., Sept. 30
The Legislative work of this session
of Congress being practically COM
pleted, except for the passage OF
the democratic deficiency tax bill,
Senator James II. Brady, after con-
sulting with his republican col
leagues, has returned to Idaho to
participate in the campaign. The
tax bill, making a levy of more
than 500 900, 900 on the American
people, To offset deficit of 500. =
000, 900 resulting from extravagant
appropriations during this session
of Congress, is to be passed through
the senate as party measure, and
Senator Brady before leaving, was
paired against the bill, so that his
vote will not be lost. Senator
Brady was urged by many of his
friends in Idaho to return to the
state, and his republican associates
in the Senate. with whom he con-
ferred before leaving. also advised
him to go home and lend his per-
sonal support to those who are
managing the republican campaign
Republican senators took the view
that it is essential. from a national
standpoint, that Idaho re-elect Sen
ator Brady, for only by retaining
their present strength and defeat
ing democratic senators in other
states can the republicans hope TO
put an end to democratic extrava-
gance and democratic destructive
ness through legislation. The
democratic majority in the Senate
is now small, and the full influence
of the administration is TO be used
in an effort TO defeat republican
senators this fall, in the hope of
strengthening the administration s
control over the upper branch of
Congress. For these reasons, Sen
ator Brady was advised to go back
to Idaho, and exert his influence
for the election of the republican
ticket,

GOOD SUGGESTION TO

1t is surprising the amount of old
foul matter the simple mixture of
buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc, known
as Adler-i-ka, drains from the system.
This remedy became famous by curing
appendicitis and acts on BOTH the
upper and lower bowel so thoroughly
that ONE DOSE relieves sour stom-
ach, gas on the stomach and consti-
patton almost IMMEDIATELY. We
are mighty glad we are Boomers Ferry

FARM LOANS
Republican Land Board Assists Great
ly in the Agricultural Develop
ment of the State
INTEREST HELPS SCHOOL FUNDS
Allegations of MishsndIing Of Funds
Are Groundless
INTEREST HELPS SCHOOL FUNDS

The republican textbook is just
off the press and it contains some
very interesting reading matter. 1t
takes up in detail the work of the
state land board. Attention is
called to the fact that two years
ago the dead walls of Boise were
plastered with attacks upon loans
made by the state land board OF
these the Mosley loan of 50, 900 on
property near Boise is an example
and was made a special subject for
attack at that time with the claim
that it was for an amount greatly
i'll excess of the value of the land
The property was purchased by
the last legislature for use of the
penitentiary for S25 900.
In considering this matter il
should be borne in mind that the
state land board has been in con-
troll of the republican party for a
great many years and that the OPP
position, both democrats and pro-
gressives, are always trying to find
something out of which to make
political capital, and their favoritt
sources of attack are the state
loans. Through wise republican
policy the state of Idaho has now
nearly 50, 900, 900 outstanding in
farm loans at rate of interest ol
seven per cent. These loans have
been of inestimable value and ben.
eft to the farmers of this state. II
has enabled them to receive So,
600, 900 worth of cheap money ano
it has assisted them very mater.
tally in developing the farming re-
sources of the state.

The opposition has sought, in
the absence OF any real campaign
ammunition and in the face of adj
verse criticism for a national adj
ministration which cannot be de-
Tended to the agricultural interests
of the state, to arrest the attention
of the voter with violent attacks
upon the land board and public
officials, repeating in this respect
performances of previous cam
paigns. The real facts of the adj
ministration are shown by the fig
ures. With the large sums entailed
in the administration of the affairs
of the land board not one dollar
has been lost to the state, and the
figures are there to substantiate the
statement. The state central COM
mittee has III its possession facts
which could place upon the de-
fensive certain men who are loud

lieves that a clean minded and fair

Republican state boards of land
commissioners have a most re-
markable record in regard to these
loans. The state has never lost a
single dollar by reason of them,
Notwithstanding the vast amount
of money involved and the hun
dreds of farmers who have received
loans. So carefully have these
loans been made and so ample has
been the security accepted that
the state has been required to fore
close but a few of these mortgages .
After the mortgages were fore
closed the state was able to resell
the land at a great profit and is
now more than $4,000 ahead on
such transactions.
AS regularly as campaign year
rolls around, the democratic party
and its allies come forward with an
expose of the mismanagement in
handling state funds. 1t will be
recalled that the democratic cam
paign orators were particularly
aggressive aloug this line, but their
prophecies have proven false.

cerned but the direction was not
good. At the same time the distance
gained was not nearly enough to reach
the green. I put down another guilty,
and tried to get it home with mid

tried a third, this time using heavy
driving mashie, but even then the ball

all I was worth and could not get Il

core with equal force, the ball would
have gone far over.
In putting as in the short ap-
pr)aches, there is no denying that the
guilty may be hit with confident force.
That is to say, the player feels that he
can aim right at the pin and not feel

on the putt the guilty seemed to roll
exceedingly true when hit firmly, and

with enough force to make the club

had to be more pronounced follow
