more attractive.
Mr.. Johnson called attention to the
fact that very few farmers COMPARE

the increase in the value of thier land.
Their farming operations brought
them only a fair living, he declared
Cooperative selling of farm products
is remedy for the condition, he said.
In the afternoon a much larger au-
dience heard Benjamin Drake, Of Min

operative Exchange, talk of "Gamb-
ling in Grain Markets." Mr.. Drake is
a fluent, forceful speaker and he des
cribed practices which he ascrlbed to
the Chamber of Commerce in dealing
with farmers grain in no uncertain
terms.
The final speaker Of the day was
George S. Lotus, the sales manager
Of the Equity Cooperative Exchange
and one OF the most prominent men
IN the Equity movement. Mr.. Lortus
theme was "Co-operation" and he as
cribed the work which is being
done by the Equity Society and the
Equity Exchange to promote better
conditions for the farmers and make
more profit for the me- who raise the
grain. He declared that only through
Cooperation can the farmer make a
real success of farming and urged the
farmers attending the Chautauqua to
think over the work which is being
done by the Equity Society and the

LUCKY CAPPS

1t looks now that our worthy towns
man and Democratic nominee for
state treasurer is in a fair way to be
elected at the coming election, not
withstanding the large Republican
majority he will be compelled to
overcome, which would not be very
difficult if he was as we'll and favor
ably known throughout the state as
he is in Blackfoot where his reputa-
tion for integrity and sagacity is
gilt edged. If entrusted with the
state funds we do not believe that
they will make him either a suicide
or convict as they have some of
his predecessors, who have invested
them in wildcat or get-rich-quick
schemes. Mr.. Capps is a successful,
shrcwd business man in whom the
voters Of all political parties can safe
ly place their trust, and the funds
of the State of Idaho will never grow
less in his keeping.

Dewey Is
Treasurer

E. H. Dewey of Nampa is treasurer
of the state of Idaho. He was 40.
pointed by Governor John M. Haines
Tuesday and received his commission
that afternoon, Immediately taking
charge Of the treasury department.
Mr. Dewey succeeds O. V. Allen, de-
faulting state treasurer, self-confessed
embezzler of $4,000 of the states
funds, now serving an indeterminate
sentence of from five to 10 years
in the state penitcntiary. Owing to
the fact that it was found to be i'm
perative that a new treasurer be ap-
pointed SO that he could qualify forth
with and protect the state with suf-
ficient bonds as surety for the safe
guarding of the several millions of
dollars in the treasury department,
Governor Haines. who had about
made up his mind to appoint the treas
urer-elect, promptly switched his
pla.-s Mr.. Dewey was prevailed upon
to take the office for the two months
period. Allen being in the peniten-
tiary, the surety company carrying
his bond wished to be secured and the
state taking the same view, the new
treasurer was appointed.
Mr.. Dewey is well known in this
state. He is one of the leading busi-
ness men of Nampa and southern Ida
no and mayor of that city. While
the proposal to appoint him came as
distinct surprise and his business
interests which are large made it diff
flcult for him to consider the appoint
hent, every pressure was brought
TO bear on him to secure his accent
ance.

Governor Is
Not To Blame

If the interview given out by At
torney General J. H. Peterson am
published in the Spokesman Review
Saturday is correct, there will be nj
further shakeups in the state admin
istration and there is no evidence OF
completely touching anyone else. H.
said the reports Of the state examiner
on the treasury department failed tc
show the slightest suspicion that any.
thing was wrong.
Attorney General Peterson's state.
ment is as follows:
Governor Haines relied absolutely
on the constant reports of the state
examiner regarding the state treas.
urer's office. In these reports ther,
never was a shade of suspicion that
the accounts were not in good order.
l attribute this, however, not to any
collusion on the part Of the examiner,
but to Aliens widespread popularity
and engaging personality, which prob.
ably led the examiner to trust him alb
solutely and to be careless in inves-
tigating the office.
"The affair is sure to strengthen
Governor Haines' candidacy for re-
election, and l think it will also aid
the campaigns of other members of
the Republican state administration.
The governors instant action-he him
self swore out the warrant for AL
lens arrest-instantly proves that he
could have had no knowledge of what
was going on. A shrewder politician.
too, would have contrived to have the
matter kept quiet until after election.
by a constitutional defect the stat.
government of Idaho is entirely in the
hands of boards, leaving the governor
with hardly more than supervisory
power. Hence there was no pressure
OF duty upon him in dealing with the
Allen case-he could have ignored it
without violating his oath of office. -

Held In Esteem By
Fellow Citizens

If tho people elect me to the Of
flee of judge of the Sixth Judicial dis
trict," said G. F. Hansbrough, Of
Blackfoot, to an Optimist reporter,
II will greatly reduce the costs of
holding court-you can say that for
me, If you will; and another thing
II elected, I will have no friends to
favor or enemies to punish from the
bench, for stand for equal and ex-
act justice to all and special privilege
to none; and last, but not least, for
strict economy in public affairs" Con-
tinuing, MIR. Hansbrough said: ''This
district is not SO large or cases SO
numerous, but what man can do the
work himself, and If elected pro-
tose to take care Of the court. busi-
ness myself and will have time to
spare, at that, believe"
With all the directness and posi-
tiveness Of his nature Mr.. Hans
brough Is thus mingling with tho
voters of this district, and such state
ments coming from him, at a time
when the problem of lower taxes is
confronting the people, offers the
voter food for thought and is making
his supporters stronger and more nu-
merous wherever he goes, for they
know that he means exactly what he
says, and will do just what he prom
ises.
A few years ago special referee,
who, by the way, is now a candidate
for the office Of judge of the sixth
judicial district against Mr.. Hans
brough, was appointed in the famous,
or more properly speaking, the motor
ious Snake river water case-a little
piece of work that was strung out
over period of years and cost the
people affected something in the
neighborhood of $4,000. When this
case and others are recalled, it is
then that the voters get the full sig
nificance of the promise of Mr.. Hans
brough to preside over and take care
OF the court, and the business COM
ing before it, himself.
This year, for the first time, the
judiciary is taken out of politics, as
1t should be, and men of all parties
can vote for the man of their choice,
without regard for party affiliations

tuted for that of the old one.
