NORTH 1DAHos POLITICAL COMPLAINT.

The Republicans of North Idaho are becoming very
much disturbed because they not receiving their due
share of political representation The time was when
North Idaho was always allotted United States Sena
tor Congressman sometimes Governor, and always a
fair share of other officers. Today North Idaho is with
out her United States Senator we'll her Congressman
and has only one state official Boise in the executive
branch.
The trouble with North Idaho is twofold-he direct
primary and lack of harmony Under the convention plan
possible give each section of the state its Just
share of political honors This is impossible under the
direct primary 1t likely that North Idaho will
again the representation it had under the conven-
ton system at least until present election law is
materially modified Fine spun theories about the direct
primary will change the conditions, and it is condi-
tons and not theories that dstrubs North Idaho
friends at this time.
But there is another factor as detrimental to the poll
teal interests Of the North the direct primary and that
is lack of harmony There has not been campaign since
