DEWEY STATE TREASURER
Well Known Nampa Man to Serve Until
January l.

e. H. Dewey of Nampa was appoint
ed Tuesday to fill out the unexpired
[ term as state treasurer He took
charge of the offices and records af-
ter the days business had been trans
acted on Tuesday night.
Mr.. Dewey named j. w. Robinson
as his deputy. Both men are we'll
known all over the state. Mr.. Dewey
is mayor of Nampa and one of the
wealthiest men in Idaho. He has
been prominently identified with Re-
publican politics for many years and
was one of the candidates for election
as United States senator two wears
ago. Mr.. Robinson is secretary of the
Idaho State Bankers association. He
was considered some time ago for the
position of director of the mint.
This appointment came as a sur
prise to me-" said Mr. Dewey. 81 was
not seeker for any office and under
any other circumstance would rot
have accepted the position Of state
treasurer.
Il felt, however, that it was the duty
of every Republican to do everything
in his power to aid his party at a time
when it is being unfairly attacked
after having performed it's full duty III
all matters affecting the public inter-
ests, and notably in connection with
the treasury exposure and the Punish
ment of the guilty party.
Il accepted the position because
thought it my duty as Republican. ]
think it is the duty of every Republic
can, especially at this time. to take
off his coat and put in his best licks
for his party until the polls close next
Tuesday. Statesman

LARGE PROFIT MADE !
In RAISING CAPONS|
Most of Work Can Be Done in
Winter When Time Is P!enti- !
full With the Farmer.
(By MILLER PURVIS.)

NO one Is better situated to raise
capons than the farmer. On the avs
erage farm the additional work res
CURED to raise from 100 to 200 cas-
pons would not be noticed, and the
to in the winter when time is plenti7
full with the farmer.
There are many stories told about
the size to which capons grow, whila
the truth is that the ordinary capon
will grow to but one or two pounds
more than the ordinary uncaponized
cock rel would be in the same time,
and to secure this additional weight,
extra feeding Is necessary.
In preparation for capon feeding ID
is wise to hatch about twice the num-
Der of chickens as capons desired, for
fully half are likely to be pullets.
The pullets may be kept for egg-pro1
duction or may be sold for spring
chickens, thus securing enough money
to pay for raising the whole flock up
to the time the cockerels are old
enough to caponize, which is about
twelve weeks.
The operation of caponizing does
not require much skill, although the
beginner will probably kill two on
three at the start, which will not be
lost for they bleed to death in about
the same time as II they had their
threats cut and are equally as good
for table purposes as II bled In the latll
ter way.
A set Of tools for caponizing costs
from $1.50 to 81 and with each set
are sent directions that any one can
follow.
After the caponizing, the cockerels
become .docile and quiet they lose
ambition and their combs cease I'd
grow; in fact they shrivel, and when
fed they eat their fill and then sit
quietly around until feeding time
comes again.
Capons always retain that sweetnesa
and juiciness Of flesh that are charac1
teristic of the spring chicken-the real
son they bring such high price.
They are fed much as other fowls
are fed, only they get more. About all
they eat goes to the formation of juicy
palatable flesh.
A few years ago capons commanded
hardly any attention in the West. and
do not yet bring the prices they do iu
the Eastern cities.

BORAH WANTED
ALLEN DEFEATED
Wrote Letter to Chairman Day
Dated September q
USED PLAIN LETTER TO STATE
CHAIRMAN DAY ON QUESTION
The Letters Make Very Interesting
Reading. Working Hard for Par
ty

Washington, Oct Ex-senator w. E.
| Borah of Idaho, more than month
ago, when serious charges were
| brought against State Treasurer O. v.
Allen, wrote letter to Chairman
George Day of the Republican state
central committee, advising that AL
lens name be taken from the Republic
can ticket
| Later, after the state committee had
adjusted Aliens shortage, Chairman
Day wrote Senator. Borah advising him
of what had been done, and the senator
| again declared that Aliens name
| should be removed from the ticket In
this second letter. written October 5,
| Senator Borah concluded by saying:
ut is the duty of the Republican or
ganization to see that Mr.. Allen is de-
feated at the polls"
| The two letters of Senator Borah
make interesting reading. They are as
| follows.
Sept. 20, 1914.
My Dear Mr.. DAY. have just been
reading the charges that have been
| made against Mr.. Allen, candidate for
state treasurer. / have no doubt that
those in charge of the party at home
will deal wisely with this matter, and
only my interest in the success of the
party and my belief that at the bottom
of all things in public service is integ-
rity of purpose upon the part of politi-
cal officials would justify me in in
truding my opinion.
But | feel very earnestly that if
those facts as published are true, or
substantially true, Mr.. Allen ought to
resign from the ticket 1t would not
do, in my Judgment, to pursue the
course of permitting him to straight
en- out the loan and actually protect
the state in dollars and cents and then
ask the voters of the state to give him
another lease of power. ! do not know
that the facts published are true, and
it may be possible that it is a wholly
unjust accusation against Mr.. Allen.
If SO, we should stand by him
But unless the facts are strictly in.
accord with honest. square dealing and
in accord with the public interest and
the public welfare, there should be no
alternative as to what should be done
he should get off the ticket The
mere settling up of the question would
not be sufficient. 1t will not do to say
to the people of Idaho that one who
has deliberately set about to defraud
the public or has secretly and clandes-
timely engineered dishonest transact
tion may purge himself by simply pay
ing up when caught
I write this letter out of no person
al feeling of course, because I have
always been personally friendly to Mr..
Allen, but I write not alone in the in
terest of the Republican party, but in
the interest of good, clean govern
ment and decent party organization
l am sure that you and your associates
will pardon me for offering the sug-
gestion. 1t is offered in the friendli-
est spirit and with best wishes for sue
cess. Very respectfully,
(Signed) WILLIAM E. BORAH.

October 5. 1914.

October 5, 1914
My dear Day: have your letter in
which you advise me that the Allen
matter has been settled, as it were. by
his paying up, etc. must confess that
this is great disappointment to me
and very discouraging | have no
doubt that the committee which you
say passed upon the matter acted in
the best faith, and I would not for a
moment think Of questioning the mo-
tives of those men, whom | trust impli-
city.
But I must be candid with you and
say that think it great mistake. Mr..
Allen ought to have been requested to
get off the ticket and if he did not do
SO, it was the duty of the organization
to see that he was defeated at the
polls 1t is an indefensible principle
of public morals to seek to impose up
on the public for another term the SER
vice of a man who confesses by his
settlement that he was guilty of the
original charge.
Neither you nor any other business
man would for moment think of re-
employing a clerk who had undertaken
through clandestine methods to get
hold of something that did not belong
to him. The fact that he settled the
transaction after he was caught might
ameliorate your feelings sufficiently
that you would not insist upon his in
generation in the penitentiary, but
you would hardly re-employ him and
put him next to your funds again.
Now, we have tremendous trust
fund subject to the administration of
the state and it is our duty to guard it
with the utmost vigilance. The great
trust fund of the state, coming from
the sale of our public lands and sub
ject to management by public officials.
belongs to our children and our chill
dren's children. II we are careless or
Indifferent as to the conduct of those
who have to deal with it in its early
history, how long will it be until there
will be built up around this great trust
fund coterie of petty larceny thieves?
We owe it not only to the party, Day,
but we owe it to the people of the state
of Idaho to see that the man who is
Indifferent and careless as to the use
of that fund and it's management is re-
tired to private life.
You say that he has determined to
| stay on the ticket and that the mat1
ter, as | understand you, is beyond the
control of the committee. Well, Day,
it is not beyond the control of the
voters and it is not only the duty o&
the voters to defeat Mr. Allen, but it is
the solemn duty of the Republican or
ganization to see that he is defeated.
