county Mr.. Davis is enroute to his
home at American Falls from Tacoma
and Camp Lewis He stopped at Spo-
kane, visited Wallace, Coeur dAlene,
and Moscow and went from here to
Lewiston. He goes from there direct
home. Mr.. Davis is not making an ac-
tive campaign. He feels that he is too
well known to need this. He was the
republican nominee for governor two
years ago and his friends feel that if
the ballots had been counted as they
should have been that he and not M
Alexander would have been declared
governor. Mr. Davis ran $4,000 votes
ahead of the presidential candidate in
this state He has host of friends in
northern Idaho who are working for his
nomination and predict that he will be
nominated and elected.

HOMER ESTES WILL HAVE
AN OPPONENT IN NOVEMBER

The democrats of Latah county are
not content with having only a portion
OF ticket and are arranging to have a
candidate for every position in the
county. The positions of auditor, sur
yeyor, superintendent and treasurer
were not filled by candidates filing for
the nomination and members of the
county committee are trying to arrange
to have strong candidates nominated for
these positions by their friends writing
their names in on election day This
can be done and the person getting the
greatest number of votes will be the
nominee and his or her name will be
printed on the official ballot in the No
vember election.
w. E. Heard's name will be written
on the primary ballot of the democrats
for the position of county auditor. This
position is known as "clerk of the dis
trict court and ex-officio auditor and
recorded"
Mr.. Heard came to Moscow to edu-
cate his sons, who were sent to the
University of Idaho. For eight years
he was head of the grocery department
of N. Williamson's big department
store, and since leaving the store has
been engaged in farming. He is re-
garded as strong candidate.
As yet no candidates for the other
positions left vacant on the ticket have
been secured, but it is said to be the
intention of the democratic committee
to leave no vacancies but to have can
didate for every position at the Novem
Der election.

was severely wounded and was invalidec

Boom's many friends here 1t follows
Dear Morgan:
| have been intending to write to you
for some time past but have really been
too busy.
Just how busy l have been you can
perhaps realize when I announce the
fact that I was married on August I.
In addition to the attention that little
matter required, have had to make
two trips to Philadelphia for the pro-
curement of brace for my crippled
leg, and only returned from the last
trip couple of days ago.
You do not know, and I am sure you
never heard me speak of the lady I
married, but it was simply the culr1i
nation of something | started twenty or
more years ago in California.
She arrived here at 4 80 p. m. on
August l, and at Sis it was all over. I
1t has been frightful1y hot here for
the last three weeks, and only the last
two nights have been so one could
sleep at all. That sort of business GER
tainly takes the pep out of one, espe-
cially when you have put in good hard
days work from 8 or $50 a. m. to 81
,. m.
Although this is Sunday, friend wife
and myself have agreed we-w will stay in,
and that is perfectly agreeable propo-
sition to me, for l overdid the exercise
With my new leg, and my foot is so
swollen that I doubt if I could get the
shoe on anyway.
Let me hear from you some of these
lays at your convenience.
Sincerely yours,
