HOW ALEXANDER BROUGHT
BOISE WARRANTS TO PAR

Mr.. Alexander claims great credit
from the fact that during his last adj
mlnistration as mayor of Boise, city
warrants were brought up from o5
cents to par.
A talk with those intimate with that
rity's affairs discolses light upon the
subject.
Mr.. Alexander entered upon his first
term as mayor of Boise with a clean
slate. Upon the expiration of his
term there was a deficiency of few
thousand dollars. Mr.. Richards sue
ceeded him and finished his term with
practically the same deficiency.
MIR. Alexander was then elected a
second time. The deficiency con-
tinucd to grow-a way deficiencies
have under Democratic rule-until
Mr.. Alexander contrived bond issue
OF SIS, 10000 to take up all outstand-
ing warrants. This brought the war
rants from 65 cents to one dollar
par value.
But we would like to ask Mr.. Alex
ander if it is not fact that he cashed
over $35,000.00 in warrants when this
bond issue was made; if he did not
buy up warrants at 65 cents on the
dollar from his customers and then as
mayor manage a bond issue that
would net him a handsome profit?
The transaction reminds me-" said
a prominent Boise man yesterday, "oi
the story told of two brothers Of
Ilebraic persuasion. Their father hac
recently died and the brothers me-
shortly afterwards Observing a huge
diamond in the shirt of his brother
the other exclaimed: 'Where did you
get that diamond, key? Why,
4 bought it, OF course Bought it
what WITH returned the one VIII,
knew his brother. Why you know
am the executor of Fathers will
! Yes Well, he instructed tina
$4,000 be used to buy a stone-thi
is the stoner"

D. D. HARGER FOR PROBATE
JUDGE.

Judge Harger IS serving his Rrst
term as Probate Judge. He is law
yer of ability and integrity. Some of
the hardest legal questions arise in
matters of probate Judge Harger's
long experience at the bar has fitted
him to fill the office of Probate Judge
in most satisfactory manner.
Judge Harger is a worker, and
keeps everything up to the dot. He
has no clerk or assistant, and attends
to all the work of the office himself.
On account of juvenile and the
great variety of other matters coming
before the Probate Judge, the Office
demands a IMAM of years and exper-
fence, and Judge Harger is that man.

W. A. Stone, the candidate for
County Attorney on the Republican
ticket is an able and brilliant lawyer.
In his own profession he stands sec
ond to none in the county. His long
experience has given him a wide
range in legal work. There is scarce
ly a criminal case in the county in
which you will not find w. A. Stone
either prosecuting or defending.
In w. A. Stone Canyon county will
have the most able prosecutor in the
state of Idaho. Not only is he an able
lawyer, but he has good Judgment in
all legal matters, and his election will
prove boon to the taxpayers of the
county, as he would safeguard their in
terests in judicious and painstakine
manner.

FINE TRIBUTE TO
GOVERNOR HAINES

A prominent officer of the Bull
Moose organization of the state has
been Persistentlv quoting Hon. r. B.
ocatterday as saying that he would
support McElroy for governor.
When seen by representative of
The Tribune, Mr.. Scatterday said:
am surprised to hear that my re-
marks have been so twisted In every
manner possible | am working for the
election OF Governor Haines; | am
tor him first, last and all the time.
The conversation referred to took
place several months ago. At that
time Mr.. McElroy's name being men
toned | expressed appreciation of his
ability but made it plain that | could
not support him under present con-
ditions.
IF my opinion is worth anything
to my friends, | would not like to
have them mislead as to my opinion of
Governor Haines and the Republican
ticket generally.
Mr.. Haines is an honest, conscien-
tous executive. OF strong, force
full personality, he has a keen, accur-
ate business mind highly trained. I'm
| der his direction the departments of
the state have increased in efficiency
in a striking manner. He has I'M
doubtedly given the affairs of his Of
hce more time and careful attention
than any governor the state has had
in late years.
In his campaign two years ago he
promised the people lower taxes. He
has made good.
Il wish you would say" continued
Mr.. Scatterday, that my deepest in
dlgnation has been aroused by the un-
just attacks made by certain irres-
ponsible parties on Governor Haines
| have observed Governor Haines
closely during his term of office anC
can unhesitatingly say that he ha.
made splendid executive. an
proud to have him for my friend anC
to vote for him November third.
III ever a man deserved recollection
it is Mr.. Haines. A failure of tn,
) people to cast their ballot for him
means that they not only place thei
stamp OF approval upon unfair, con
temptible tactics but would also meal
r serious loss to the state OF Idaho.

STovEL FOR COUNTY CLERK

One of the most efficient County
Clerks Canyon county has even had
is George w. Stovel. He is onto his
job at all times. 1t is said of him by
the attorneys of the county that they
are able to obtain from him papers or
files at any hour of the day or night
He has been an excellent official
puts himself out at all times to &C
commodate the public. He has work
ed diligently for his constituents, un-
derstands the office, and handles it
in an efficient and economical man
ner.
He is serving his first terrnt In the
interest of Canyon count and the tax
payers he should be reelected.

WE WILL TAKE THE PICK.

AT rousing Republican meeting at
Fair View last week, the young peo-
pie sang the following song to the
tune of Coming Thur the Rye. 1t was
composed by Roy Maxey.
Look out Demos, look out Moosers,
They are heard to beat
Stand up, fight, and take the knock
out
Do not get cold feet.
Rain or shine, they won't surrender,
They will win the day or bust,
Standing meath our old flag Glory
They are fair and just.
Chorus:
Mcconnell, Brainard, Hayes and
Berry,
Christopher, Taylor, Fisk,
Gardner, Harger, Bean, and Stovel
We will take the risk.
If a Republican you encounter
Coming down the pike,
Tip your hat and say howdy, sir,
He'll surely treat you right.
He is honest, he is upright,
He's a man clear through.
Cast your vote for Billy Stone, sir,
He'll prosecute till he's blue.
Chorus:
Breshears and Campbell, Blair anC
Mitchell
Cakes and old man Fisk;
Gardner, Harger, Bean and Stovel,
We will take the risk.

been said about us. Friends and
neighbors will again become friends
and neighbors. Each of us will try
to act and speak that he may live in
peace and in the respect of his fellow
citizens. A distinguishing feature of
American political campaigns is the
fact that the animosities created dur
ing the campaign pass away very
rapidly. 1t is a mighty good thing
that such is the case else this country
would make a Central American re-
public look like 80 cents as revolu-
try. During the campaign, in words
at least we are at each others threats.
A couple of days thereafter we are at
peace with one another.
The state and county has been in
the throes of a political campaign for
nearly SIX months. The fight started
long before the primary election and
has been waged without interruption
ever since. Most of us are glad that
it is over. We can resume our several
avocations in normal state of mind.
There is a great deal of business that
is to be done in Idaho. The develop
ment work must be resumed on larg-
er and greater scale than ever before.
Projects that have awaited to more or
less extent the results of the congress
sional elections throughout the coun-
try can be taken up again. 1t seems
strange but it is nevertheless a fact
that great enterprises must be carried
over until after the election although
they are then put through whatever
the results.

CHRISTOPHER SAVES MONEY


A. o. Christopher, the present As
SCISSOR of Canyon County is man
above reproach. He is a scholarly
gentleman and a man who has not
spared himself in doing his duty.
To A. o. Christopher can be credit
ed the saving of several thousand dol
lars to the taxpayers of Canyon Coun-
ty. Democrats as we'll as Republic
ans praised Mr.. Christopher for his
able work in keeping the tax valuation
down two years ago when the Haw-
ley administration was determined to
raise it, He has had the same fight
every year, and it is conceded that Mr.,

BRESHEAR'S RECORD
TELLS THE STORY

This seems to be a campaign OF
promises by candidates seeking to
Gust present incumbents. This year
the Democratic nominee promises to
conduct the shcritt's Office of Canyon
county more economically. This
promise is made without knowledge
on the part OF the promiser as to how
the sherlits Office this year has been
conducted. He knows nothing of the
expenses made necessary by the work
OF the Office which varies greatly ac-
c)rdlng to the amount OF work done.
No man can anticipate this year what
the expense OF the Office will be next
year, Tor the very simple reason that
no man can read the future and know
the amount OF travel and other items
OF expense which the Office wild be
called upon to bear Many expenses
charged to the shcriif's Office appear
as 4 charge against that Office when
IN reality the expense was made by
order OF the county commissioners
ordering souc necessary repair or
some other matter, or by the District
Judge who also has jurisdiction to
order certain things to be paid for.
The only way in which to Judge the
economy Of an office is to compare
the expenditures of various sheriffs.
We are herewith submitting COM
carson OF the expenses of Sheriff
Brcshcars as Contrasted with w. IL.

county IN the years 1907 ana 1903. 1t

Had IS Extension Schools.

The agricultural extension service of
the University of Vermont held 10 ex-
tension schools last year. Over 800
Vermont farmers registered The at
tendance ranged from 20 to 60 and aver
aged 3d. The interest shown, as well as
numerous requests for similar schools,
warrant their continuation this winter
on larger scale. 1t is proposed to hold
30 schools provided communities are
ready to meet the simple requirements.
At these schools, with farmers as the
pupils, agricultural college men will dis
cuss dairying, breeding and manage
ment of livestock, feeds and feeding,
farm crops, soils and soil management,
fruit, poultry, forestry, farm manage
ment and farm machinery. The schools
last for five days. In most cases coin
cdent with the work in agriculture for
the farmers will be held an extension
school in home economics for the farm
women, at which house sanitation, selec-
ton and preparation OF foods, sewing
and dressmaking viii be discussed and
illustrated.
The extension service desires to start
these schools by the middle of November.
Several applications are already in hand;
Others should be promptly made. The
local community should furnish suitable
rooms for the work and guarantee sat
isfactory and, as nearly as may be, con-
slant attendance. Applications win be
considered in the order of receipt and
should be addressed TO director of exten>
sion service Burlington, Vt.

MUST HURRY
THROUGH BILLS
President Wilson Faces Sc
rious Menace for Pet
Measures
IN POWER
DEM. INSURGENTS
Will Weld in the House
from December,
1915

Washington, Nov. AT Republican
and Democratic headquarters yesterday
the political leaders had about given up
their pads and pencils and quit figuring
on the coming lineup in the House and
Senate. The results are still in doubt
in small number of cases, but for all
practical purposes the tabulatons are
known and have changed little in the
last twenty-four hours.
The leaders now are engaged in study
ing how it happened and what it por-
tends for 1916. Also the situation in
House and Senate with reference to leg
islation, leadership and the like is being
discussed.
The House, according to the latest
figures, stands Democrats $50; Repub.
leans, 1856 Progressives, I; Socialist, / J;
Independent, /.
The most important fact with respect
TO the House is that, as it will be made
up in the sixty-fourth Congress, the in
surgency of about dozen Democrats
can knock into cooked hat all the plans
of the Democratic leaders. Already NUT
terings of insurgency are in the air.
Democratic members in number of
cases say they are weary of taking or
ders from the administration, and es
pecially of having cabinet members WELD
a club over them.
The new congress will not meet until
a year from this December, unless an
extra session is called by the president
next spring. The present intention is
not to call an extra session in the spring
but this cannot be considered certain
tn so far in advance The coming short
session is expected to do little but enact
the appropriation bills A big program
win demand attention in the spring.
Besides, no one can foresee what the Eu
ropean war may bring forth.
One of the effects of the elections on
the forthcoming short session will I'M
doubleday be to cause the administration
to try TO drive through as long pro-
gram as possible ahead OF the new CON
gress Another effect will be to make |
The Republican and Democratic in
,urgents more tenacious than heretofore. |
