RANDALL'S

The address of Chairman Randall,
which was interrupted by his sudden
Illness, was as follows:
with pleasure that / do not try
to conceal and with gratitude which I
cannot express I accept the commits
sion which you have so kindly ex-
tended to me. To meet and talk with
fellow Republicans is always a pleas
ure; to be permitted to take part in
their %counsels is distinctly a privilege
and to preside I'VE their delibera-
tons, even temporarily, is an honor
Of no uncertain quality. For this
trust, this confidence, this great hon
Ior, / am deeply and sincerely grateful
That 1 may discharge the duties you
have thus generously imposed upon
me is now my dearest and gravest
C
Real Clearing House.
Here are men from all parts of
the state and here can be had news
from this part of the state; the con-
tentions of that part of the state and
claims and desires of another part of
the state. Thus any convention of
party workers, for whatever purposes
convened, forms a sort of clearing
house of party opinion. It has hui
man interest and a tendency to CO.
herence sadly lacking in all party
matters launched by the primary
alone.
Our gathering here today is sig
nificant of the fact that we are again
entering upon a national campaign.
With heightened interest, with a little
acceleration of the pulse we realize
that we are again face to face with
our ancient enemy. However famil-
lar this phase of the situation is. there
is another phase of it not so
familiar. For the first time in 20
years, for the third time in practical
ly 60 years, we stand outside the
breastworks.
lowing largely to our own short
sightedness, If not to our stupidity.
the title of championship went to the
enemy four years ago. Our problem
now is to regain lost laurels.
Bring Them to Judgment.
"As was said by our incompatible
Elihu Root. in his speech before the
New York state convention in Febru-
arv. we are 20 bring the Democratic
party before the bar of public opin-
ion for Judgment This leads me tc
acknowledge my immense debt to that
great master of statement. Again
and again have I read his statesman
like arrangement OF the dominant
party, always with pleasure and pro-
fit, ALWAYS with the impression that
here was strength. here was truth
here was a masterpiece. So II is quite
likely that much that I may say will
be reminiscent thereof. BY the meE-

Tribute to Borah.

we send greetings to our senior
senator, whose wisdom has ever
sought for this nation. that course,
which will command honor and re-
spect among the nations Of the earth,
whose firmness has never relaxed In
support of the grand principles of
government which Washington, Hamil-
ton and Lincoln inaugurated and sus-
tanned among the governments of civ
ilized people. and whose foresight,
amid the dark clouds of International
conflict, has ever seen clearly the
way to humanity. independence and
self respect. to William f. Borah. SEN
ator and statesman we extend with the
firm grip OF loyalty, the friendship OF
a grateful people.

times firm. vigorous and dignified, we
feel assured that the coming election
will bring victory to the Republican
party and prosperity 10 the American

found necessary to gerrymander one

one general observation. AS l read
the political history of our country
during the last 60 years, it plainly
demonstrates that the great problem
of the Democratic party is to produce
prosperity; the great problem of the
Republican party is to regulate pros
perity.
Passing now to the second count
of the indictment, l shall have but lit
tie to say. Not that the subject adj
mits of but little discussion, but rath-
er because the weak foreign policy
which the Wilson administration has
maintained extends in its ramifica-
tons to the deepest soil in which our
government is rooted; it is far reach
ing because it affects our integrity
and u welfare through all the years
TO come; it is delicate because it in
wolves criticism of our president when
he is passing through some of the
gravest days a president ever faced,
when all of his people want to stand
with him and for him. But, neverthe-
less, a presidential campaign is on; we
are about to choose our next leader,
and under these circumstances it is
not only our right, but our duty to
examine the record of our present ma
tional leader, who assuredly will eX-
pect a reelection in November.
Kept on Verge of War.
Perhaps some broad, general facts
will suffice; every man within hearing
of my voice knows the details. We
been, on the verge of wal with at
least two nations, one of them being
one of the weakest in the world po-
litical family and the other being one
of the strongest. This dual condition
has arisen from the same cause.-the
lation Of American rights. Stated
more BADLY, it is because of the kill
ing of American citizens.
Stand by In Peril.
"Sorrowfully and with reluctance do
we thus arraign our president in his
great hour of trial. And while he is
our president, and while he contends
with malignant forces from without,
in Idaho as in New York, in California
as in Pennsylvania, in Minnesota as in
Texas, to a man we'll stand behind
him while he upholds the nations
rights and the nations honor.
I'VE shall go before the people next
fall with a man of our own choosing.
What we do here will more DR. less re-
fleet Idaho's choice. Not for me is
the privilege, as l now stand, nor Is
this the time to express personal
views. But ! assume no n will COM
plain, no one will charge me with an
ticipating my rights as a delegate, II
merely remark that when the gather
ing of 4S loyal sister states is COM
plete at Chicago and offerings are
made of favorite CONS, no criticism
will be aroused by Idaho's contentious
and none will be heard to say that
Idaho does not have within her Dor
ders the stuff of which virile Ameri-
can presidents are made"

Personally speaking" continued
the chairman, 81 am a Republican,
just a plain, everyday sort of a Re-
publican, without ~adjectives, prefixes,
suffixes, or hyphens, and If in the en-
i~ightened and progressive G to so
declare ones self is to be considered
a disgrace, then l am here, my breth-
rem, to glory in my shame.
True to Traditions.
Il am true to the political traditions
of my fathers, because l honestly and
sincerely believe that the present hope
and safety, as we'll as the future pros
perity of both state and nation, de-
pend upon the broad, courageous and
comprehensive craftsmanship of the
party of Lincoln, Grant and McKin-
ley, rather than upon the weak, vas
cillating and insipid policy of the par
ty of Buchanan, Wilson and Bryan"
Colonel Hamer reviewed briefly the
history of the Wilson administrators
handling of the German submarine
and the Mexican questions, and the
convention yelled lusty approval of his
~denunciation of the ultra-pacifists.
After a clear analysis of international
affairs during the past two years, he
declared:
"This is the condition in which the
richest, most powerful and aggressive
people the world has ever known find
themselves at the end of lao years of
successful self-government. 1t cannot
last much longer unless you and l
who through many years have proud
ly borne the title of American citizens,
shall hereafter, when that name IS
mentioned, with shame and sorrow
hang our heads.
An Impossible Doctrine.
"If the present vacillating policy of
the administration is carried to it's le-
climate conclusion, 1t means that we
have abandoned the ringing, resolute
declaration of the fathers that life and
the pursuit of happiness are the
browning glories as well as the mali
enable rights Of American citizenship
for the %cowardly purrmg OF the peace
at any price propaganda, which to a
virile, red-blooded American is the
most impossible and disgusting doc
trine ever announced"

HOLDERS ON STRIKE.
Fifty Wonlxmen at R. & E. Walk Out
 After Demanding Increased Wages.

Another Walkout of employees of the Russell & Erwin Mfg. Co. occurred yesterday afternoon, when about fifty brass holders quit work after asking for an increase in wages. Though somewhat hampered, the de- partment is still operating, and the officials have not as yet decided upon any move toward a remedy of the conditions. It is rumored that the action of the workmen yesterday has been anticipated for several weeks, and caused no great surprise.
 General Manager Hawley was in terviewed this morning regarding the situation and he stated that the men had asked for an increase that the company could not afford to pay. He said ample time would be given the men to return to their benches, but if they insisted on remaining other molders would be secured to fill the vacancies
 A short time ago the iron holders
