OF RECLAMATION, TARIFF Am
LEAGUE ISSUES.
Hon. Frank r. Gooding, twice go,
ernor OF Idaho and now the republ
can nominee for United States senate
VISITED MOSCOW Saturday. spent th
day renewing acquaintances with bur
dreds OF old time friends and in th
evening spoke to a crowded house /
Eggan,s hall. He was given a resnt.ot
Iul nearing and made a deep imDres
sion on those who heard him. Gov
ernor Gooding was in fine voice. an
every word he spoke was heard b,
every one in the hail. despite the fac
that many were standing He covered
the national and state issues and made
a strong plea for straight republi
can vote in the election of Tuesday
November 2. Governor Goodine said II
part:
Mr.. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen
| believe it can be truthfuIly SAID
that this government is facing more
serious problems today than az any
time in its hostory. 1t is at such a
time as this that the people must give
serious thought and consideration to
the affairs of their government if If
is to be brought back to its normal
vat1sm-there must be no mistake
made in the choice of leaders or priu-
c1ples. What we need is a man for
President who is not lacking in leader
ship or in courage to meet the mighty
problems of the day-One who is will
ing to take council and advice in deal
ing with the affairs of our country
for this is not a one man country We
need a man for President who has no
my~01$ 3Nw~ ky~r4
second to sacrifice the common good
of the nation for his own ends.
/ believe the Republican party Sc
iected just such a man for its stand
ard bearer at the Chicago Convention
when 1t nominated the Honorable
Warren G. Harding for President of
the United States. We learn from
those who know him best that he is
much the same type of man as McKin-
ley, always ready to meet the people
and who by his own efforts has risen
from poor struggling printer of a
country newspaper to be the standard
bearer of the greatest political party !
the world has ever known.
And again, the Republican party
was most fortunate in the selection of
its nominee for Vice President when
1t chose Calvin Coolidge, a man who
won the respect and admiration of all
the people by his fight against anar-
chy and treason in the great common I
wealth of Massachusetts. {
But / am not going to take up your
time discussing men, for this cam 1
paign is going to be fought on the is
sues in the two platforms. You will {
either vote for Mr.. Cox because you +
want a continuation of the Wilson t
policies and are in favor of his League a
of Nations, without reservations or a
amendments, and are in favor of o
free trade policy, or you will vote for o
Warren G. Harding and the party that G
is against continuation of the Wilson Ii
policies and against his League of Ma Il
tions and has always stood for pro-
lection to American industries and S,
American labor. Il
Eight years of a weak, vacillating 81
'swatchful waiting policy at Washing N
ton, with it's mis-rule, extravaganza, W
lack of enforcement of the laws, at all RI
times subservient to the disloyal ele- al
ment of this country, has brought W
about condition that fills the future 81
with doubt and uncertainty, until the S,
great question before the American &C
people today is "Americanism," the IL
saving of America for Americans. We tt
must call upon the people irrespective g
If political affiliations in the past, to If
support the Republican party in this
for if that great party is
in the coming election it
will protect and defend those prin-
iples of government that Washington u
ought for, that Lincoln died for, and
ur boys so ably defended on the bat
lie fields of Europe.
If I am elected to the United States
enate / am going to make fight for
1ore rigid immigration laws; for a u1
me would stop all immigration and
those who are fit to be-
ONE American citizens and deport
lose who are unfit. There should be
ut one language in this country, and e.,
ut one flag, the Stars and Stripes for ~ !, -
Il. We have been in such mad 81 81
lsh to do things that we have given e.. g..
Ut little consideration to our citizen -
lip. We have accepted people from - -
very country on earth regardless of tns
eir fitness to become citizens, until 20
day 103 different languages are an
'oken in America. We have made an
about deporting few Boil oI .:[
levists, less than 400 in all, and III
lille we were doing that work we =
we permitted hundreds of thousands ing
foreigners to land upon our Wo'
ores. Better hundred times that pm

nerican principles, for after all, wn
aat shall it profit the American peo- sec
! & we gain all the wealth in the tea

ms that civilization has ever known, gan
ly in the end to see them torn down Spo
