To the Republican voters OF Ada
County:
hereby announce my candidacy
for the office OF Prosecuting Attor-
ney of Ada County on the Republican
ticket, subject to the will OF the peo-
pie at the primaries on September 5th.
My candidacy is endorsed and sup
ported by many of the leading attor-
neys of the city, as well as business
men, and members of the various
trades organizations. If you believe
in my fitness for the office I shall be
glad to receive your votes and sup
port.
If nominated and elected, | shall
consistently and impartially attend to
the duties of that office with careful
economy and efficiency.
Very respectfully yours,

/ l desire to announce to the readers
OF the Gem Worker my candidacy for
the office of Safe Senator from Ada
County.
seek the office because | believe
myself specially qualified by age, fun
damental social attitude, natural tai
ent, and education to serve the state
IN which | desire to spend my life.
l am thirty years of age; have spent
practically all of them in this valley
where | have found life a struggle
hard but hopeful; have impressed all
all my teachers in school and college
as the possessor of a well-posed and
capable, if not brilliant mind; have had
splendid opportunities, finally. to see
life and public affairs under many
manifestations.
My fundamental social attitude calls
Tor special emphasis here. By instinct,
believe, and in spite of reasonable
opportunities to align myself with the
classes OF privilege. | place myself
unreservedly with the cause of the
whole people. | desire full equity of
opportunity in the struggle for the
goods of life, and believe that the
masses of the people-those who labor
with their hands-have always been
seltishly ignored by the alliance be-
tween capitalism and government
which has persisted in this country.
l have surveyed the progress made by
organized labor in Great Britain and
the lesser progress made in the United
States. believe that something like
the industrial Democracy Outlined
by the English authors, Sidney and
Beatrice Webb, is inevitable. The
problems of the future are grave, but
! welcome them with all confidence,
Tor only better conditions of life can
result from the passing of political
power to the people In my opinion
the loftiest ambition possible today is
TO get into a position to help solve
wisely these matters on which the
fate of society depends. In asking for
election to the legislature / am enlist
ing actively in the great cause of
human freedom and opportunity.
1t will be the duty of the next ses-
sion of the legislature to enact a
Workmen's Compensation law for
Idaho. | promise my bestefforts to
securing an honest measure that shall
give the worker such protection as the
most progressive states in the Union
provide. On the other matters at
feeting labor that may arise | shall
make the most careful study can and
act out OF mind that seeks only the
welfare, now and always, of our peo-
pie.

FEWER CRIMINAL CASES.

County Attorney r. L. Givens
writes of the beneficial results of
prohibition in Ada county in response
to an inquiry from the Gem State
Rural as follows:
Replying to your favor, beg to say
that since the operation OF the dry
law that the number OF criminal
cases in this county have materially
decreased, for instance before the
operation of said dry law two JUS
tices Of the peace in this city drew
from this county as fees, in connec-
tion with criminal matters, to about
the average sum of $3.50 per month.
at this time the same two do not
draw to exceed $40 or $50 per
month. In other words before the
operation of the dry law there was
an average of three or four criminal
cases per week. whereas now there
are about three or four month"

An open letter to the Board OF
County Commissioners Ada County
Unanimously adopted by The Far
mers Home Club in their regular
meeting October 20, 1916.
To tho Honorable Board OF County
Commissioners OF Ada County, Idaho
The members OF The Farmers
Home Club respectfully desire to call
your attention to the condition OF
the gravel road running directly
south from Meridian. ais we all re-
side directly on, or adjacent to this
splendid public thoroughfare and d.
rectly receive more or less the bene-
fit from Its construction, we wish to
state that we appreciate the same
very highly, hope to see It continued
In the future in the same fine condi-
ton as In the past two. years.
IL Is our opinion, however, that at
the present this extremely heavy
travelled road is In urgent need of
resurfacing. The fine surfacing ma
terial being practically all gone. the
course gravel Is up to the surface,
and II Is our conviction that when
the water from the winter rains PEN
etrates this course gravel. heavy
loads In passing over will dislodge
and finally break through this course
material and permanently injure the
roadbed.
As we are all taxpayers and vitality
interested in the economical oIrer-
alton OF the county affairs, and be-
lieving that comparatively small
amount OF work this fall will put the
road in fine condition to stand up
during the. wet season and save the
heavy expense of reconstruction,
which in our opinion is eneyitable II
this matter is neglected.
We take the liberty TO present this
matter for your careful consider
alton. Respectfully Yours,

That one of the cleanest county
tickets ever nominated by the Re-
publicans of Ada county has been
nominated by them this year is gem
orally conceded. The ticket is COM
posed OF men and women of unblem-
ished character and recognized abil-
ity for the respective office which
they seek and no Republican Is ne
cessitated to apologize for any one
of them or to explain the action of
any man or woman nthe ticket.
With such a commendable ticket ev-
cry one of its members should and
probably will be elected by an over
whelmingly large majority. There
is no logical reason why a Rephbli-
can in Ada county should not vote
for each and every Republican
county nominee this year.
