OUTLOOK SEEMS
BRIGHT FOR DENIS

Boise, Idaho, Nov. Especial to
The Recorder) er)--Claiming that the
year 1922 will mark the greatest
democratic landslide ever recorded in
the history of Idaho, Will II. Horni-
brook, chairman of the democratic
state central committee, today gave
out the following statement:
"The entire democratic ticket will
be swept into office on November z.
It's in the air, and nothing short of
political miracle can prevent the
landslide which has been gaining mo-
mentum during the last thirty days.
We have checked and rechecked on
every precinct in the entire state.
The reports from county chairmen
and members of the state committee
Agree with reports from precinct
workers.
They all send the same message-a
complete breaking away from party
lines on. the part OF republican voters,
and support of the democratic state
ticket as protest against the huge
increase in taxation under the Davis
Moore regime and the adoption Of
spineless platform by the Wallace
convention.
at is now conceded on all sides
that either Alexander or Moore will
be elected Governor next Tuesday.
No one who pretends to be we'll in
formed believes that Samuels has the
remotest chance of election. 1t is a
we'll established fact that the repub
lican press and state central COM
mittee have been giving aid and COM
fort to the progressive nominees for
the past two months. They have
been PLAYING up Samuels for the sole
purpose of dividing the liberal vote
OF the state in the hope that it would
permit Moore to creep into the ex
cutive mansion as a result of divi-
sion between the progressive voters.
The rank. and file OF the progressive
party understand this situation. They
are satisfied with the democratic plat
form, and are advised that the pro-
greasive vote is breaking in all parts
Of the state to Alexmder and the
ether democratic nominees. Friends
Of Senator Borah are also lining up
solidly behind our state ticket. This
is a combination that cannot be bent
on broken. The year 1922 will mark

John d. Rockefeller voted against

dividends. Mr.. Rockefeller was right.
my temperament was not suited to
such work. If | had been elected presi-
dent would have found some way to
lower the price of oil and gas so that
such enormous profits would not have
eeen possible.
