BOOSTS FRED DUBOIS
FOR U. S. SENATOR
Pettigrew Of South Dakota, Urges the Progress
ives Of Idaho to Name Foxy Fred as
Their Candidate.

for years. Pettigrew served in the
senate from 1889 to 1901, part of
the time as a colleague to Dubois.
Then he was straight-out repub-
lican. He left his party on the
money trust and Imperialism issues;
but in 1912 he lined up with Roose-
velt and his army.
Some students of political con-
ditions profess to see cooperation
between Pettigrew and Perkins.
Perkins seems to have succeeded in
landing his candidate for governor
in the person of John P. Vollmer.
Now it is up to Pettigrew to land
his candidate for the senate in the
person of Fred T. Dubois-one a
former republican; the other a for
mer democrat. This would give
the ticket an equilibrium much to
be desired.
Of course Guy H. Martin, who
has been spoken Of for both govern
or and senator, could be honored
with the nomination for seat on
the state supreme bench. That
would still preserve the equilibrium
one republican, one democrat and
one progressive.
In trying to get at the real mo-
tive for the nomination of ]. P
Vollmer for governor on the Bull
Moose ticket in preference to Guy
H. Martin, who led the fight two
years ago and who, it was conceded
would be the standard bearer this
year, this suggestion was made by
one who gives some attention tt
current politics.
Vollmer must possess some
characteristics to recommend him a
a Bull Moose connidate that MartiI
lacks. Figure out what these char
acteristics are and you have tn,
answer.
But as Fred T. Dubois is also
comparatively poor man this line o
. reasoning does not account for hi
, candidacy for the senate"

George w. Perkins, who seems
to be the controlling factor in induc-
ing John p. Vollmer to enter the
political arena as a Bull Moose can
date for governor of Idaho, is not
the only prominent outsider deter
mined to take hand in the politics
Of Idaho this year, says the Boise
Statesman.
Richard Franklin Pettigrew, for
mer United States senator from
South Dakota, a man who played
an important part in some sections
as Bull Moose in the campaign Of
1912, seems destined to play an in
teresting if not important part in
the campaign this year in Idaho.
Information leaked out in Boise
Saturday that several Bull Moose
in this section of the state, and sew
eral others who were Bull Moose in
1912, received personal letters from
Pettigrew urging them to use all
their power to make Fred T. Du-
bois the Bull Moose candidate for
United States senator this year.
In addition to lauding Dubois as a
man of great ability as statesman
and man of tremendous influence
thruout the nation, these letters
from Pettigrew point out to the
Bull Moose the splendid opportunity
placed in their hands by the demo
Gratis in their reputation of their
former state leader. He insists
that Dubois, because Of the things
for which he stands, would ado
tremendously to the Bull Moose
strength in the state and would
render Bull Moose victory prac
tically certain.
Just how extensive the Pettigrev
correspondence has become no one
seems to know. Neither is i
known whether other infuentia
outsiders are engaged in the sam'
line of work. It has been know
that Pettigrew and Dubois hav

DESCRIBES JOY RIDE
IN CALIFORNIA

Long Beach, CAL, March 20, 1914.
Editor Examiner thought pos
sibly some of your readers would
like to know something Of Californ-
las sightseeing trips so will try to
give you a synopsis of one taken to-
day.
To Montpelier's former townsman
D. McLennnn, and Mr.. Henry, for
merly of Idaho Falls, is due the
credit for one of the most delightful

The guests of the party were Mrs.

Cokeville, Mr.. and Mrs. w. G. Dav-
is, Mrs. DOR Poynter and daughter
Ruth, Miss Julia Brennan and Mr..

pelier.
We left Long Beach at 5 a. m,
travelled SO miles returning at 6:25
D. M, without anything going
wrong. Much of the day was over
asphalt boulevards fianked on each
side with trees, masses Of flowers
and coy homes surrounded by
orange, lemon or walnut orchards.
There was scarce q mile that We
could not pick, had we wished, and
sometimes we did, oranges or lem
ons a few feet from the road.
4 At Whittier we visited packing
house, where an army Of worker
assisted by complicated machinery
. was washing, sorting, grading
sizing, wrapping and packing tn
golden fruit.
!, We watched the oranges from tn
e time they were brought into tn
T building till they were loaded int
: the cars. One hundred and eigh
, people, mostly women, were en-
pIoyed. It is well worth ones tim
