IDAHO REPUBLICANS NOMINATE
A WINNING TICKET.

The sentiment in favor of the con-
vention system for the nomination OF
candidates for state Offices was great
~ strengthened by the proceedings
and the result of the republican con-
vention at Pocatello last week Dele
gates that unquestionably represented
the sentiment of the party in every
county in the state conferred and de-
libertaed with the view to nominating
the strongest and most representative
candidates and in this they succeed
ed to degree that will meet the APP
prevail of the party. The chief con-
tered in the senatorship, and in the
nomination of Frank r.. GOoding the
honor fell to a man who has for many
years not only been strong factor
in the republican party, but equally
strong in the business and Industrial
affairs of the state. He will enter the
campaign with characteristic energy
and his appeal will be to the thought
full patriotic people who constitute
large majority in Idaho In renomin-
ating Burton l.. French and Addison
r. Smith the convention by acclama-
ton carried out the desire of the peo-
pie that these two capable and faith
ful representatives should be retain
ed in the lower house Their long
service has increased their usefulness
and it is credit to the intelligence of
the people that no change in these
positions was considered. The renom-
nation of d. w. Davis for governor
practically without opposition was a
high tribute to the man and a splen-
did endorsement of his administra-
ton for the past two years.
For the vacancy on the supreme
bench TO nil the position now held by
Justice Morgan, the convention nom
mated Robert n. Dunn. of Occur
dAlene. judge of the eighth judicial |
district. This nomination is de-
served honor to one who has been a |
resident of Idaho for many years and |
foI - years has served with credit on
the district bench. OF equally high .
character and qualification are the
nominees for the provisional terms on
The supreme bench, W. A. Allen. Of
Blackfoot and Chas. p. Mccarthy of
Boise. the latter of whom is now
Judge of the district court in Ada
county.
The remainder of the state ticket
5 made up of men who are either
erving in the positions to which they
AVE been renominated or others
whose character and training espe-
tally qualify them for the positions
ounding out a ticket of unusual ex-
ellence. Best of ALL the republican
srty throughout the state was never
etter united nor more confident of
uccess at the polls Almost eight
ears of democratic control of the ma
onal government has resulted in
'iping out all material differences
mong republicans and has developed
widespread desire for a return to
publican principles and policies of
Dvernment comparable to that which
-evailed at the close of the last dem
,ratic administration when Mckinley
,rried the country by an overwhelm-
g majority. This attitude toward
e Wilson administration viii mani
st itself against not only the ma
onal ticket but against democratic
ate and county tickets as we'll The
ople have had enough Of democracy 3"
ID will vote for change. This is a ="
publican year. The republicans of '''
aho are confident but not overcon-
emit They know the character of
e opposition that it will include all
2 elements of radicalism and disor-
r in the state and they have nom
lted a ticket that win not only
mmand the support of republicans.
t which will also attract many
whose first concern is for
an and capable government rather
an the spoils of Office and the adop-
n of exploded theories of socialistic
'orm. 2
