NEWEST FRAMEUP
NOW DEVELOPING
LATAH COUNTY MAY HAVE A RE-
PUBLICAN GUBERNATORIAL
CANDIDATE IN PRIMARIES
F. A. David, Well-KnOwn Idaho Mer-
chant, Visits South and RumOreG
His Hat is in the Ring

That Frank A. David, the we'll
known Moscow business man, prom
inent in republican party circles il
the state and county, may be a re-
publican primary candidate for gov
ernor, is the newest development il
republican political circles of the
north. indications pointing thai
way came simultaneously with the re-
turn of Mr.. David, and B. T. Byrns
many years associated with him il
business, from southern Idaho, where
Iostensibly they have been looking af
ter their land interests in the Burley
region
While in the south both hob-nobb.
ed with political leaders at Boise anG
lit has been learned that Mr.. Byrns
spent much time in sounding out the
political situation. In a conversation
today Mr.. Byrns stated that Mr.. David
would be an ideal candidate and
would be a strong force for bust
ness administration in the gubernator-
ial chair While at Boise they paid
their respects to the chief executive
and in a discussion Of Mr.. David's
fitness to occupy the chair, the gov
ernor insisted on Mr.. David's occupy
ing the chair for full hour, which
he did, thus securing perhaps an in
spiration of what would follow with
success at the polls.
Mr. Byrns said this afternoon that
in a primary race the field was open
to all and could not see why Mr.. DAY.
id could not be a factor in drawing
the north together. When seen this
afternoon Mr.. David treated the mat
ter rather lightly, his extreme mod
esty forbidding him acknowledging
that he might become a candidate. He
neither affirmed or denied the rumors
that his hat was in the ring. Both
he and Mr.. Byrns refused to discuss
the matter seriously Local republi
can leaders were on the qui vive to-
day over the possibility of Latah
county furnishing another gubernator-
ial candidate, and developments are
awaited.

XMAS CANTATA
WELL ATTENDED
FIRST M. E. CHURCH CROWDED TO
CAPACITY SUNDAY EVENING
TO HEAR NUMBERS
Solo Work Was Especially Excellent
And Much Favorable Comment
Heard on Entire Program

The Christmas Cantata given in the
First Methodist Episcopal church Sun
day evening was rendered to the en-
tire delight of all present The large
building was crowded with people. II
was estimated that fully 700 persons
gained access to the building and
many were turned away unable to OBJ
tain even standing room. The chorus
under the direction of DR.. I. r. Boyd
was we'll trained. The cantata was
perfectly learned. This gave con-
fidence to the singers resulting in
good attack of tones. The expression
was good and the phrasing particular
ly fine.
The tenor solo by DR.. Boyd, ut
Speaks to the World" was rhythmic
and pleasing to the audience. Mr..
Heard's solo was very good and a
choice composition. 1t was we'll rend-
cred by a good voice. The closing
of the solo was a pleasing obligato
began quiet and sad until hope intro
duced a more cheerful movement to
the music, and the soloist responded
very fitthgly.
One of the best musical numbers
was Dean Eldridge's solo, "The Light
of Glory; the change of time and
rythm in the middle of the solo CIV
ing excellent effect. Dean Eldridge's
tones are especially pleasing in the
middle register.
Mrs. Martins solo, angel Voices"
was beautiful setting for her voice,
having the remarkable range from low
B to G. The sweetness of her voice
was charming and its power was seen
in that at one place the organist used
the great organ. The accompaniment
was extremely difficult but was well
rendered by Mrs. Reeves who show
ed great skill and application all
through the cantata.
Another of the especially pleasing
numbers was the duet for tenor and
baritone entitled, "The Message" by
D. S. Reeves and DR.. Boyd. The clos
ng chorus was grand finale intro
1uced by two duets, Mrs. Orland and
Mr. Heard having very marked
'ythmical effect. The choir attacked
he final chorus with confidence be-
ng sung entirely fortissimo. Much
favorable comment has been heard

hat is still in the ring and as evidence
of this the Review of Standpoint, Tay-
lor's home town, says:
| a good deal of political gossip has
been going around in the past few
weeks. Meetings have been reported
held in Lewiston and Spokane in the
| interests of various candidates for Of
| fee. Hon. d w. Davis of American
Falls, with his fellow townsman, Hon
David Burrell, have made a trip
through north Idaho, and Hon. George
Crum of Lewiston has made trip to
Boise and southeastern Idaho. A
meeting of prominent republicans was
reported in the Spokesman-Review to
have been held in Spokane yesterday
at which the various candidates were
said to have been discussed.
Lieutenant Governor Taylor, when
asked with relation to the reported
conference in Spokane denied that
he was present at any such confer
ence or that, so far as he knew, any
such conference had been held.
Mr. Taylor has stated that it is too
early to make formal announcement
of his candidacy but rests upon his
statement heretofore made that he
will be a candidate for the republican
nomination for governor and that any
reports to the contrary are unfound-
ed and are circulated either as mat
ter of news or by those who wish to
prevent his candidacy; that in any
event he will be candidate up to the
date Of the primary, and expects to be
nominated.
"Mr Taylor deplores the sectional
ism sought to be injected into the con-
test, saying that neither the north,
south, or southeast should fan itself
tional candidacy, for when the nom
ination is made the candidate and the
party will need the votes of the en-
tire state. No person should be nom
mated governor who is not big enough
to represent the whole state of Idaho
No one would say that Senator Borah
Senator Brady, or Congressman
Smith did not represent the whole
state of Idaho, although they each
came from the south or southeastern
part of the state. A man should not
be picked for his geographical loca-
ton alone.
Mr.. Taylor bases his candidacy up
on his previous record and says that
IN due time he will make formal an
that he expects to run
upon the republican platform adopted
oy the platform convention of the
party and that he will have some |
hing to do with the making of that |
platform and that if he is not the |
nominee of the party, the man who |
S will at least have good platform |
o run on. Mr.. Taylor refused to be
Iuoted but stated that he wished to
lave denied the report which has
,een somewhat circulated to the effect
hat he would not be a candidate.

It was q shrill. firm voice that rang

Elaine passed along. hunting for the
trail. Suddenly shower Of pebbles
came falling down from q cliff above
her. Some Of them hit her and she
looked up quickly.
There she could see me being led
along by my captors. She hid in the
brush and watched. During all the

They had just decided to make away

Resolutely she took step forward
and into the cave.
Hands up!" she demanded with
astonishing firmness.
The thing was so unexpected in the
security Of their secret hiding place

all lined up against the wall.
Keeping them carefully covered. she

Just then Del Mars boat ran around

around the promontory and saw It,
changing his course accordingly, and
gaining somewhat.
Del Mar sank upright and rapidly.
down in the shallow water to the bot
tom. Once having his feet on some
thing approaching firm ground. he
gazed about through the window-like
eye Of the helmet until he got his
bearings. Then he began to walk
heavily along the bottom of the har-
Dor, over sand and rocks.
It was a strange walk that he took.
half stumbling, slowly and cumber-
somely cropping his way like q queer
underwater animal.
II anyone could have seen him, he
would have noted that Del Mar was
going toward the base of huge, rocky
cliff that jutted far out into the har-
Dor, where the water was deep, q
dangerous point. avoided by craft OF
all kinds. Far over his head the
waves beat on the rocks angrily. But
down there, concealed beneath the
surface of the harbor, was q sort Of
huge arch Of stone. through which a
comparatively rapid current ran az
the tide ebbed and flowed.
Del Mar let himself be carried along
with the current, which was now run
ming in and thus with comparative
ease made his way, still cropping.
through the arch. Once under 1t and
few feet beyond, he deliberately
kicked on the leaden-soled shoes and.
thus ightened. rose rapidly to the sur
face of the water.
As he bobbed up, a strange sight
met his eyes-not strange. however,
to Del Mar. Above. the rocks formed
a huge dome over the water which the
tides forced In and out through the
secret entrance through which he
