Short News Notes
From All Parts of
IDAHO

Boise, IdahO,-With the entire Re
! publican national, congressional, judi
| cial and state ticket reelected in
Idaho, it now appears to be but a
matter of final totals. President
Calvin Coolidge and Charles G
Dawes swept the state. But the
standard bearer in the fight was
United States Senator William L
! Borah, who is easily leading all Re.
publican candidates in the victorious
march. His popularity will be well
up in the thousands.
Governor c. c. Moore has been re-
elected. A count Of 106,7S9 votes
tabulated up from all counties in the
state, out Of possible 10000 or
100000 votes cast, give Governor
Moore safe margin over his nearest
competitor. II. F. Samuels, or a plur-
atty of 634S.
The vote of the respective guberna-
torial candidates in 400 precincts out
of a total of $50 in the state, COM
plete and incomplete give Moore 49,
300 votes, Samuels, 41.961 and Free
hafer 1858 Governor Moore carried
by safe margins Benewah, Bonne-
Vile. Caribou, Casia, Gilmore, Frank
lin. Jefferson, Jerome, Kootenai. La
tab. Madison, Nez Perez, ShoshOne,
Teton and Twin Falls.
Samuels carried Canyon county by
a plurality of 1900. He also carried
Freelafer's home county, Payette,
together with Gem county, Gooding
county, Lincoln county, Lewis county,
Minidoka, Power and Valley counties
by small margins.
Moore's plurality is more likely to
grow rather than diminish IN the
more complete returns. Freehafer
was a poor third. Incomplete returns
show that he only carried Clearwater
county.
The presidential vote shows that
Senator La Toilette is running APP
10000 votes below Sam
uels, the Progressive candidate for
governor, while Davis is running To-
600 votes behind La Toilette. The

cause is just" There are more of us than of them.
 The plan of the enemy is to di- vide our forces by raising false is sues, for example, the race question, and the school question. Many good people will be deceived by their clev- CT propaganda and will vote for the candidates of the paid attorneys of the big canneries and mines.
 "An opportunity to keep the h. dian in has place until he is better qualified to exercise all the privi- leges and assume all the duties of the whites" they say.
 In this land of freedom and equali ty, there is no such thing as "duties of the whites" There is such a thing as the "duty of citizens" Do not let that crowd fool you with the redherring.
 And to keep him here for his own good."
 Do you really believe the cannery- men, the trapmen, and the big mines have ever considered such a thing? The paid lobbyist who is directing the Three in oil'' candidates is a high officer of a church where h. dians are not welcome no matter how sanitary" 1 could tell you number of stories of how these "well-Wishers" have settled the claims tor injuries received by h. dians in the mines and canneries of their clients.
 Tor those of my readers who con- sider themselves cultured and edu- cated, would refer them to the speech of henry Ward Beecher be- tole the Liverpool audience in 1863 where for three hours he pleaded the cause of the Union against a hostile audience. In that speech you will get the principles of sound eco- monies and good government. 1t Is the Golden Rule applied to affairs of State, and proves that the pros perity of our country increases dl- rectly as we improve the mind and the body of each citizen. Govern ments are built not by pushing down group of citizens, but in building up.
 1 would also ask the "Three in oil candidates" to study the Declaration of Independence adopted when over 50 per cent of our citizens were il- literate. 1 will close with it to save you the job of hunting it up.
 We hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created equal. That to secure these ends, governments were established among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed"
 Who are the governed? Whose consent is required?

individual fisherman great deal.
 The federal government now ad- nits the Hoover reserves are illegal, but the Bureau of Fisheries takes the position that nobody can afford to fight the case. That was the pur- pose of the resolution directing this Territory to test the reserve-es no individual could stand the expense.
 Chamberlain was a consistent SUD- porter of our governor from New York, of the Transportation Com panies, and of the Canneries. He supported carpet-baggers and op- posed the elected officials of this Territory.
 He fought the Home Rule Bill with such vigor that our Governor from New York saw to it that Chamberlain was properly rewarded.
 He successfully fought against the adoption of a fair workmen's com pensation law and thus allied him self again with the big canneries, and big mines. At every turn of the road, Chamberlain voted against the interests of the laboring man and small business man, and he SUD- ported those interests which Alas kans know as Special interests"
 The progressive citizens of the Third owe it to us in the First to see to it that they return Senator who will work for the people.
 There is no part of the Territory suffering more from high freight rates on general merchandise than is the Third Division. Your freight rates are MORE THAN TWICE AS HIGH as the rates on freight for the canneries NOTWITHSTANDING the fact that it costs the Steamships more to handle freight at the out-of- theWay canneries than at regular ports of call.
 Yet, at the last session of the legislature the entire delegation from the Third fought the battles of the steamships. In that fight none was more boisterous or more defiant in defense of the high rates than Chamberlain. Had he been on the regular payroll of the Steamships he could not have done more persistent work for them.
 No wonder these special inter- ests" now say that Chamberlain made a wonderful record.' It is Wonderful-how you people continue to send a man down to Juneau to work against your interests. Won derful ]!

OPEN LETTER TO
 DIR. W. H. CHASE

Dr. w. H. Chase, candidate for the
 Republican nomination for Sena-
 tor Third Division, Alaska,
 Cordova, Alaska.
 Dear Sir:
 The election of a worthy, inde- pendent Senator from the Third Division is of great importance to every citizen in Alaska. If the Pro- gressives do not get control of the Senate this year, important legisla- tion for the benefit of Alaskans will be postponed at least FOUR years. We will lose this control if former Senator Al Chamberlain is reelected from the Third Division.
 Is it not possible to waken the progressive citizens up there to the dangers involved by his reelection?
 I attended upon the sessions of the 1921 legislature and also the 1923 session, and I have personal know1- edge of this mans record.
 In 1921, he was Jim Fozard's man. When the tax on mines was raised to 1 1-2 percent on NET profit, or at the rate of $15,000 on each $1,- 0O0,0O0 of net profits, Senator Cham berlain sold out to Jim Fozard and succeeded in reducing this Unjust tax" as he called it to a mere 10 percent or $10,00O, on the million.
 1 have some reports from your district indicating that Chamberlain is in the lead for the Republican nomination for Senator. It is evi- dent to me that the Steamship Com panies and the Canneries have humber of clackers boosting for him. Their argument is every where the same, namely, that Al. may be an awful drinker, but still he made a wonderful record"
 When he came to Juneau a year ago to attend the legislature he talk ed very loudly against fish reserves and high freight rates and pro- 1ounced himself enthusiastic in favor of Home Rule.
 He was walking about figuratively speaking, with his coat off and his sleeves rolled up ready to battle for those ideas. But before he had been there ten days he was on the other side of all these questions. He be- came the champion o+ the canneries and the Steamship Companies and Federal control of the Territorial offices.
 He was against Fish Reserves and altho he voted for the Grant Me- morial of protest; he voted against allowing our Attorney General tc test the legality of Hoover's fish "e- 11roc Ml,o,o Co11or1,o,. Ro,,o untooG
