Herbert HOOVer'S Record
AS a Republican
sss 80

Secretary Hoover has been a MEM
Der in good standing of the National
Republican club for years. He first
became a member of this club, which
imposes allegiance to the republican
party as a condition of membership in
1909. He came from staunch repub-
liean stock in Iowa. Ills foEebears
were affiliated with the party from its
BIRTH The entire connection is
staunchly republican, and the repub-
licans of the district in which he was
born have elected Hoover delegates to
the Kansas City convention.
Criticism is made of the fact that
his name appeared on the democratic
ballot in presidential primaries in
1920. On April 3, 1920, Secretary
Hoover issued statement to the eff
feet that this had been done without
his consent and that wherever per-
mission had been asked to place his
name in any primary he had refused
such permission. The statement of
April was issued by him to dis
courage anyone placing his name on
ballots in other states. In this state
ment he also referred to his letter of
1918 written to Honorable Frederic
Coudert to the effect that it was the
duty of everyone to uphold the hands
of President Wilson in the successful
prosecution of the war. This was not,
as has been alleged an appeal for the
election of democratic congressman.
Mr.. Hoover's reference to that letter
in his statement of April 3, 1920, was
as follows:
at was obviously my duty as an
important war official to support the
president without any thought of any
political interest to myself from the
day | entered the administration until
/ left it, and | put no qualifications
upon or apologies for loyalty to ones
chief in office"

VI ARREN TOOLE
TO BE CANDIDATE
AT NEXT ELECTION


tana's supreme court, Warren Toole,
last week announced his candidacy for
the democratic nomination for lieu
tenant governor and filed his petition
for nomination in the office of the
secretary of state.
Judge Toole accompanied his filing
with a simple pledge, saying:
If | am nominated and elected |
will, during my term of office, give
my best efforts to the welfare of all
the people; sincerely, honestly, fairly
and intelligently, and with deep de-
votion to the principles of our insti-
tutions, and ever guided by the sacred
and immutable truth that all men are
created equal"
Judge Toole was appointed asso-
ciate justice of the supreme court of
Montana in December, 1926, to fill
the unexpired term of the late JUS
tice Holloway. This complimentary
selection by Governor Erickson
pleased the many friends of Judge
Toole throughout the state, and en-
abled the court to speed up its work,
as under the law it was unable to call
IN a district judge to sit in place of
Judge Holloway. Judge Toole was
the youngest justice ever to sit upon
Montana's supreme bench, and one of
the youngest justices ever to be a
member of the highest appellate court
of any state in the union.
Judge Toole is a native of this
state. He was born in Helena in
1893, the son of Joseph K. Toole, who
came to Montana in 1869, and who,
having served as district attorney,
president of the territorial council and
member of the constitutional con-
ventions of 1884 and 1889, was pre-
eminently influential as territorial
delegate to congress, in procuring the
admission of Montana to statehood.
following which he was elected the
first governor of the new state and
served three terms, resigning from Of
flee in the last year of his third term.
He is also the namesake of the former
governors elder brother, who oc-
cupied an outstanding place at the
bar of Montana from 1863 until his
death in 1905.
Judge Toole received his early edu-
cation in the public schools of Helena,
later graduating from Yale university
and the law school of Stanford uni
versity, from which latter institution
he received the degree of Doctor of
Jurisprudence. He was admitted to
the bar in 1917 and Immediately COM
menced, and has since been engaged
In the practice Of law at Great Falls,
in which profession he has demon
strated that he inherits the ability of
his distinguished father and uncle
The law partnership of Pray, Gala
way & Toole, of which he was a mem
Der during its existence, enjoys the
unique distinction of having its entire
membership successfully elevated,
within period of four years to the
highest judicial offices in Montana,
both state and federal in eloquent
testimony of ability and popularity.
Judge Toole was in the field artil-
lery Of the United States army during
the World war. He married Miss
Eulalie Barker, who was born in
Great Falls and who has always taken
an active interest in civic affairs and
the welfare of children of disabled
soldiers, besides interesting herself in
other charitable works. He has two
children, his son being enrolled in the
public schools.

100000 HOMELESS
IN PORTO rico
Death Toll Mounting Steadily Is
Workers Labor

San Juan, Porto Rico. Sept. is "
In the faee of a steadily mounting
death toll; Porto Rico iabored today
to care for 100000 persons left
homeless by the tropical hurricane
until help could come from the out
side. Half of these homeless were es-
timated to be hungry.
Within the last - hours the toll
Of know dead jumped from 253 to
800 when reports came through from
three towns. which had been isolat-
ed. These were Generic with 20
dead. Coamo. dead, and Barran-
quitas, 3. Dostors and those familiar
with conditions estimated that the
total deaths would be more than
1000.
Poor country folk were endeavor-
ing to patch together their damaged
homes, using stones for hammers
and bent nails drawn from the
wreckage. Men. women and children
worked together. Noah Sheppard, an
agent for the Federal Land Bank.
who travelled across the island from
Ponce, said he saw no one crying or
quitting. One of the greatest needs,
he thought. was nails and hammers.
80 Per Cent Damaged
Sheppard estimated that so per
cent OF the homes in the rural dis
tricts which he crossed had been
damage. Beans, corn and sweet po-
tatoes for planting for quick crops
also were needed he said.
Citizens of Porto Rico organized a
committee headed by Chief Justice
Emil Del Toro to draft whatever aid
was thought essential. Justice Del
Toro announced that if the civil au-
thorities proved inadequate to cope
with the situation Governor Horace
NJ. ToWner, as commander in chief
of both the United States army fore
es and the National Guard on the
island. would be asked to press these
men into service for the work. Men,
bers of the clearing house associa-
ton and the chamber of commerce
also organized to cooperate in the
relief work.
Local relief funds were placed at
the disposal of the citizens commit
tee. An outline OF relief methods was
drawn up so that as soon as supplies
and food arrived from the outside
they might be distributed without
delay.
