the governor declared: Woodrow
Wilson is the prince OF peace"

the governor declared Woodrow
Wilson is the prince of peace"
Under Wilson's administration
greater progress was made than I'M
der any previous administration in the
history of the nation" he said. The
federal reserve act is the greatest piece
of legislation enacted in 40 years"
The governor then touched briefly on
each of the great enactments made
during Wilson's administration.
The governor declared there Is plen
ty of money in the state treasury to
pay for good roads to be built in Idaho
in conjunction with the government.
Idaho can pay for its share of good
roads without needing to issue q dol
lars worth of bonds. (Applause).
There was applause when the gov
ernor said: Woodrow Wilson will be
the president for rour more years"
THE IMPORTANT QUESTION.
What you want to know Is What
have l done as your GOVERNOR he
said. The demand two years ago was
lowering of taxes.
The most important question in
this state on state matters is, Did /
lower the state taXes?' All other state
issues in this campaign are insignifi-
cant | shall give you some figures.
If there is anyone who disputes my
figures, let him come forward now.
I'll divide my time with him. If he
does not come forward now, let him
forever hold his peace"
The governor In substance told how
he has saved the state $535, 900 in taxes
which together with the s315,00o saved
in bonds and $4,000 in vetoed bills,
makes total saving of $1,120,000.
That's my message" he said.
You have heard of the politicians
referring in a sarcastic way to Nose
and the million dollars Well, Nose is
here and the million dollars is in the
state treasury. (Applause).
"There was s1,2S4,000 in the state
| treasury Oct. /, 1916. 1t will require
about 100000 to pay all the state ex-
penses up to the first of the year. BY
| the first of the year there will be $780,
| 600 added to the state funds, by reason
of the 1915 levy that becomes de-
linquent the first of January. Instead
| of q deficiency, the politicians talk
about, there will be over a million dol
| lars in the state treasury when my
| first term as governor ends in Janu-
airy.
THE IKE. TO GREAT SAVING.
I'll give you the key to our ability
to save the states money. 1t is done
through the state board of examiners
Formerly all state bills were paid with
out due examination. Since I have
been governor every bill is examined
before 1t is paid. In this manner we
have saved the taxpayers nearly 9
quarter of a million dollars during my
administration" (Applause.)
There was more applause when the
governor made clear how he had recov.
cred $154,000 from Aliens bondsmen. A
great wave of applause swept over the
audience when he declared: 'If keel
out of my coffin long enough. Coffir
will not get a cent of the $4,000 claim
he filed against the state"
