EkGLEsON OUT FOR GOVERNOR

John w. Eagleson, state treas
urer, has long cherished the idea
thai he is the man who would
make an ideal governor for Idaho.
Perhaps he has the right idea, but
he will have hard task on his
hands making people believe it.
Mr.. Eagleson is rounding up his
third term as state treasurer, and
A. the last campaign was Endorsed
ny the leaders of the notorious
C'ownley league. Has he been
given assurance by Ray McKaig
that the league hirelings will put
him over if he can land the nomi-
nation? Mr.. Eagleson In mis- an
noucement boasts OF his loyalty,
but court records will not bear
him out if he is Endorsed by league
leaders. To be neutral" in this
campaign q candidate forfeits his
independence. He must not think
he can ride into office on soft pedal
platj.udes calculated to please
everybody. 1t won't work. Mr..
Eagleson has perfect right to
aspire to governorship, but when
he attempts to disrupt the party
that has been good TO him, he
makes the mistake of his political
life. Picking flaws in the state
administration will not build him
up in the estimation of anyone out

California Johnsonians in choos
ing their hero as an alternate
are betrayed. He has to melt
stony hearts by his eloquence.
His mighty voice is to soften and
persuade hostile delegations. The
galleries, judiciously dressed,
will make majestic relocation. In
a grand transformation scene,
pandemonic in hullabaloo, pan
angelic in brotherly affection,
the foremost anti-iniquitarian
will be nominated by a unanim-
Gus vote.
Lovely picture, more than
worthy of the golden age! We
hear the iron tears drawn down
Penrose's cheek. Even Murray
Crane takes shelter in a confess
ing handkerchief. The rocky
heart of William Barnes is moved
to the late remorse of love. The
groups of veteran politicians who
were cold and deaf to so many
miles of appealing words in 1912
and 1916 are won at last. Yet
why should Senator Johnson's
physical presence and far-heard
voice be necessary to get him
the prize? He deserves it for
more solid reasons. He repre-
sents openly the steady hostility,
shown more insidiously by the
leader of the Republican Party
in the Senate, to the League of
Nations, to the reconstruction
Of business confidence, to the
diminution of ornaments and
war. In his six years as Governor

man for President. Such is the

to the presidency.
