county, also speaks highly of Mr..
Carratt's activities in the legisla-
ture and has written Boundary
county people stating that the state
needs such men as CARAT in the
legislature.
Mr.. CARAT and his friends feel
last sessions of the legislature will
enable him, if nominated and elected
to serve Boundary county to greater
advantage than before. The south
end of the state has long held to the
practice of sending year after year
the same statesmen to the legislature
and it is claimed that by this method
the South is able to secure almost
any legislation it desires.
Mr.. CARAT respectfully solicits the
support of the republicans of Boun-
Diary. county at the coming primary
election.-adv.

Charles A. Sunderlin, republican
candidate for attorney general, is a
graduate of the University of Nebras-
ka and the George Washington Uni
versity Law School.
Some years ago he was engaged
with L. R. CLAWS of Alaska coal
fame in the federal investigation of
the land fraud cases.
He is endorsed by the members
of the legal committee of settlers of
the Minidoka project (south side),
and the commissioners of the "Burley
Highway District" for whom he is
attorney, and the republican central
committee of Cassia, one of the larg-
est republican counties in the state.

H. B. CARAT, representative of
Bonner county at the last session
of the state legislature, is a candi-
date for nomination at the coming
primary election on the republican
ticket as representative of Boun-
Diary county.
M. CARAT is one of the men of
5liis district directly responsible for
the passage of the Boundary county
division bill, which was the first
bill introduced in the house and
which was presented by Mr.. Car
raft. With his colleagues he saw
to it that the bill was passed by
the house, sanctioned by the senate
and finally o. KID by Governor
Alexander.
Both the press OF the state and
the members of both branches of
the last legislature speak highly
of Mr.. CARAT and of the work he
accomplished in the support of good
legislation. Along this line the
Boise Evening News said; "Boun-
dairy, Benewah, Teton and Gem
counties might not be anywhere at
all on the Idaho map if it were not
for H. B. Carratt of Bonners Ferry,
as future statesman from these
young counties would do well to
remember. Representative CARAT
is chairman of the county lines and
boundaries committee of the house
and none of the numerous county
division schemes had a chance in
the world until they had passed the
severe scrutiny of himself and his
co-workers on that powerful COM
mittee. Boundary county went
through with flying colors, of course,
for CARAT is himself from the
heart of the new division.
"In the way of house debates Mr..
CARAT leaves the talking to his
colleague, Mr.. York and he has no
ambition at all to emulate the ag-
gressive methods of the third mem
Der of the Bonner county trio,
Speaker Conner. Consequently Mr.
CARAT has made many good friends
in the present session and can do al
most as he pleases with bills he is
interested in"
Besides being chairman of the
county lines and boundaries commit
tee Mr.. Carratt was chairman of
federal relations committee and a
member of the waterways and fish
and game committees. He was
active in the support of the
farm markets bill which was passed
and which was planned to solve the
problem of distributing and market
ing farm products. In the legisla-
ture Mr.. CARAT was a recognized
champion of the rights of the labor
ing class and a component of con-
sentative legislation.
Speaker Conner has said of Rep
.resentative CARAT: He had a
trying place as chairman of the COM
mittee on county lines and boun-
diaries but acquitted himself with
great credit and quit the session
with the friendship of all members,
a feat which has not heretofore
been accomplished by the chairman
of such a committee"

w. s. Walker Tells Of Policies

Last Saturday Major Walker, re-
publican candidate for state senator,
made speeches at Porthill and Cope
land and on Wednesday he began
tour of the south end of the coun-
ty. He has now been over all the
county with the exception of the
Meadow Creek district and his in
terviews with the voters have been
very reassuring. Mr.. Walker has
every reason to feel certain of his
nomination on September 5th.
In his campaign Mr.. Walker has
been asked for statements of his
views on various issues. His posi-
ton on the liquor question, state
land board questions, ETC., are given
as follows:
To the Voters of Boundary County
stand for prohibition, state and
national and l urge every voter to
vote for the amendment of the con-
stitution this fall in order that Idaho
may have such legislation as will
make t safe against a relapse into
the liquor traffic.

state land board. The system must
be radically altered. The admins
tration of the board has been ham
pered by the lack of responsibility
of its members. It's members are
state officers primarily elected to
offices requiring all their time. Our
state officers might be well fitted
for the offices they are elected to
but at the same time be illfitted
for the duties required of the state
land board. l favor the making
of our state land board a nom parti-
san body, selecting as members of
it men eminently fitted for the work
required ana placing them under
good and sufficient bonds.

call and if nominated and elected
as senator of Boundary county will
faithfully guard the interests of my
fellow citizens and Boundary county

Building for Old AGE.

The spring and summer of our life
may have been fairly pleasant and
their -enjoyments harmless; but the
retrospect is far from satisfying if,
when the autumn comes, our fields are
empty. It is well, on summer morn
ings, as we go to our work, to pluck a
wayside blossom now and then, or
pause to hear the carol of bird: but
our chief concern should be the plow-
ing and sowing that shall yield endur.
ing harvests. 1t is we'll to quench our
monetary thirst from the brook
whose slender flow the dry weather
OF a single week may leave exhaust
ed; but we shall still need to hew for
ourselves unfailing cisterns. To live
in such fashion that, while we may do
but little harm to others, we make no
worthy contributions to their happi-
ness, is to doom ourselves to hunger
and thirst in coming days. Not only
by the evil that we do, but by the good
we leave undone, do we in youth and
prime prepare for ourselves an old
age of remorseful memories-Rev. J.
Frank Thompson, in Universalist
Leader.
