FREAKISH STORMS
SWEEP OVER JULIAETTA

Juliaetta, Idaho--(By Special to The
Star irror)- of the most freak
ish storms ever known in this sec
ton at the midwinter season visited
Juliaetta at two O'clock Thursday
afternoon. Preceding the storm a
heavy roaring was heard-then sheet
lightning followed by heavy peals of
thunder, this in turn followed by a
heavy down-pour of hail and rain.
The Big Potlatch which, up to a
few weeks ago could have been ford
ed by ducks, was suddenly changed
into a raging torrent of muddy
water, not unlike ''the Old Missouri
river'o on one of its rampages. The
storm came as a climax to a period
of rains that had prevailed for sever
al days.
State Senator E. w. Porter of Ju-
liaetta will leave for Lewiston this

the legislature in conference, enroute
to Boise. Pressing business matters
in the Bank of Juliaetta, of which
Senator Porter is president, prevent
ed his attendance at like conference
held Thursday at Moscow. 1t seems
that the purpose of these conferences
were brought about in order that the
members of the coming Legislature
may gain first hand information as
to the needs of the University of Ida
no at Moscow and the Lewiston State
normal school at Lewiston.

Tho. current issue OF the Literary Digcat car
rios a report Of the first returns In its nation
wide poll on presidential candidates It Is most
interesting. Upwards OF 20. 900 votes are tabu-
lated between the five high candidates on each
ticket and Herbert Hoover. who ls running In
this election AZ neither republican nor demo
crat. but In actual practice has tho advantage
OF being on both republican and democratic
ticket
Tho five republicans appearing In the tabu-
lation are wood. johnson. Harding. Hughes
and Lowden, running I'm the order named. Tho
democrats are Cox, Edwards, Wilson. McAdoo.
Bryan. also running In the order named. II
appears very significant that General wood
leads the entire list by very substantial plu-
rality. Hts total vote IL given 5sb7. while his
nearest competitor IN Senator Johnson with
2.SSi. Governor Cox leads the democrats with
LEA Governor Edwards Of New Jersey COM
ing next with 1857 Hoover, without party
and therefore drawing from both parties, gets
second place In the entire list with s,oes. Tho
Digest volunteers an analysis OF tho Hoover
vote. which It oonfcssos is not fair on the face
Of It, wherein It states that OF the total
adorable moro than half are democrats not
withstandng the fact that the gentleman has
finally declared bmsoif a republican.
This initial voto oamo largely from five
statcs--Ohio. New York. New Jersey Texas
and Washington. II will bo recalled that most
OF these states have favorite sons who appear in
tho list OF candidates. therefore the vote given
General Wood and Senator Johnson tho two
high men over all but Hoover appears the more
significant. Yet that fact does much to dlmln-
ish any Significance In tho showing made by
those favorite Sons. Harding Of Ohio, Edwards
of New Jersey Poindoxter of Washington and
Hughes OF New York.
ono feature OF this initial vote It seems en-
tirely fair TO emphasize. General Woods vote
alone is greater than tho combined vote for the
five democrats In which is included President
Wilson In other words. out OF the upwards
80 to tho five leading democratic candidates
Yet all OF tho states from which tho bulk Of
this vote came have recently been democratic
and tho rock ribbed democratic state OF Toxas
10 IN tho list
The Digest promises a vote OF at least rs 900
FOR its next issue with that number to consider
scattered as they doubtless will he over tho en-
tire nation, II win be possible TO form "A much
more accurate opinion. We havo no doubt that
the relative positions OF some OF tho candidates
viii change. But we fully expect to find the
two leaders among the republican candidates
stll leading when the total voto Is announced.
