POLITICAL GOSSIP
=. FROM STATE CAPITAL.

= Boise, Idaho, July 28. - Condi-
tions in the Democratic party of Ida
no are not more velvety since the
visit of national chairman Cummings
This from the New Freedom, the
leading exponent of straight democ-
racy in the state: Senator Nugent
should be delivered from his friends.
The open, intentional and flagrant
insults to several leading democrats
by the flukies who assumed charge
of the Cummings party in Boise all
rebound to the Senator's injury for
the reason that his henchmen were
guilty of these discourtesies."
The New Freedom also refers to
Senator Nugent's federal Office hold
ers In the following manner: THE
little coterie of plotters who seek to
control the party, to make 1t the ally
of dishonor, the subservient tool OF
their own selfish purposes. who
would surrender II to Bolshevism
cannot control the Democratic party,
the men and women of Idaho"
These and similar outbursts from
other Democratic sources tell the story
of the wide split in that party over
the senatorship.
! Naturally 1t has started rumors
and the name of former Governor
Alexander Is mentioned as a possible
opponent to Senator Nugent, al
though some of the party leaders are
looking about in the north for a
candidate.

In republican circles there Is ac-
tive gossip as to the senatorship. Re
publicans are exceedingly anxious to
succeed Senator Nugent with mem
ber of their party, desire that is
most emphatically approved by the
national republican organization.
II is taken for granted that former
Governor Frank r. Gooding will
make the race again, although the
outcome of his Hines Ii not certain.
1t is recognized that he made fight
In the last campaign that carried his
party to victory magnificently. al
though having drawn such fire as to
defeat himself. This is being used
| by Gooding adherents as a strong ar
gument in favor of his nomination
at the state covention.
There Is also talk that Governor
Davis may become a candidate for
the senatorship. His splendid record
as governor is pointed to as entitI-
| ing him to recognition in that con-
nection. The governor has not ex-
pressed his desires and some say
there is no foundation for the cur
rent comment connecting him with
the senatorial toga.
i James E. Babb, the eminent Lew
iston attorney. is mentioned as a can
didate. He is regarded as a most
able man. with genuine statesman

The name of Federal Judge Diet
