»
I nesday.
' The convention Was harmonious
in u marked degree. The credit
therefore was laigelv due to Chair
man James II. Brady who with
jdrew his opposition to the plan of
nominating a candidate for U. S.
Senator. After that it was easy.
Chairman Brady, Governor Good
ing, Mr. Borah, and Congressman
| French and the chairman of each
county delegation, which included
Charles L. Heilman, i f Kootenai
county, met behind closed doois,
and reached a harmonious ugree
meut, and the convention carried
ajout the agreement almost to the
letter.
The only discordant voice came
from Shoshone with 18 delegates
and Fremont with 20, and a few
stray delegates, amounting to 40 in
all.
Shoshone county put up Dr.
Hugh France for Governor against
Governor Gooding. The vote stood
253 for Gooding; France, 40.
Thus ended .another attempt of
Shoshone county ti run the
politics of the state and snub their
distinguished
Hey burn.
For
citizen
Senator
Congressman,

I The only break in the slate
j agreed upon "by the leaders was for
pïïT^T'TiT
slruction and ntate mine imBpector,
;and it is believed that the leaders
did not seriously object to these
two nominations.
By the ternis of tho agreement
entered into by the leaders, Mr.
Brady was to withdraw his opposi
tion to the plan of nominating a
Senator, and Governor Gooding
was to have a state ticket to his
entire satisfaction.
Organizing the Convention
State Chairman Janies H. Brady
called the convention to order and
announced that the state central
I committee had agreed upon the
I following for temporaiy officers of
! the convention:
I Chairman, B. C. Barber, Nez
j Perces; secretary AddisonT. Smith,
Twin Falls; assistant secretary W.
j S. Chancy, Pocatello. This reco
I nimendation was indorsed by the
convention, following which a iom
mitten was appointed to iscort to
| the rostrum United States Senator
Hey burn, Congressman French,
j Governor Gooding and W. E.
! Borah.
Senator Heyburn was the first to
appear and was heartly applauded.
When Gov. Gooding, W. E.
!
Borah and Congressman French
were escorted into the hall together
] die convention cheered and ap

The resolutions indorse the |

RESOLUTIONS
Races at Spokane Fair
Squaw pony races were an inter
j esting feature of last year's pro
gram, and these will be tried again
this year. Something new in this
line will be the squatV tepee race.
In this each squaw has her tent
pitched on the race track. At a
given signal she pulls down her
tepee, packs it on her pony, jumps
!on its back, races down the track a
I given distance, springs to the
ground and puts up her tepee again
This is not only exciting, but full
0 { amusement. There also will be
I t be usual number of boys' rac.is
. . mu i i
and newsboy races. 1 he randier s
j team race, September 24, will be
especially attractive to fanners
who have good horses. Still anoth
cr special feature will be the gentle
men's riding race, which will be
given this year for the first time.Jed

The resolutions

clauses of the resolutions uphold

enactment of an cmidovers habih
tv law modeled after the federal
statute on this subject; a resolution
indorsing tho candidacy of W. E.

and pledging the good faith of the

support Mr. Borah.
The following is the ticket as

The Republicans ■ f Idaho have
clone themselves proud. The re
nomination of Governor Gooding
and Congressman French, together
with the endorsement of Judge
Borah for U. S. Senator, makes
the strongest combination that
could have been named. These
with Senator Hey burn will give
Idaho a set of officials of which
every citizen of the slate should
feel proud.
Judge Dunn Nominated
In the judicial convention, Hon.
Robe:l N. Dunn of Coeur d'Alene
was nominated to succeed Judge R.
T. Morgan. This however was a
foregone conclusion, as the judge-1
ship was settled in the Republican
primaries of Kootenai county.
James H. Brady was reelected
chairman, and Chas. L..Heilman
vice chairman.
The most exciting of all, however,
of the special races will be the re
lay which lasts 10 dai s, and for
which a purse of $1,500 is offered.
In all there are $20,000 offered this
year for the race program, which
lasts two weeks and will he the
best ever seen in the Pacific north

The following comment on the
judicial contest is taken from the
Wallace Press:
" hen a few weeks ago Judge
Morgan and his friends were in
absolute control of the republican
convention in this county and gave
binding instructions to the delega
tion to the Pocatello convention to
support Judge Morgan for district
judge, there was no threat made
by Mr. Dunn to "appeal to the'
people from the action of the,
eouvent'on," no withdraw! of his
friends from tire cenvention, fol
lowed by a caucus to consider the
proposition of launching on inde
pendent ticket. The action of the
majority of the convention closed
the <ase with them and they
stood ready to support
Judge Morgan had ho been
successful in Koot nai county.
It was different in Kootenai
county. When the convention as
semb'ey in Coeur d'Alene last
Monday the supporters of Mr. Dunn
were in control and tho delegation
to the state convention was in
structed to support him for district
judge. Judge Morgan, personally
conducting his own tight on the
floor of the convention, when he
found the majority was against
him, publically announced that he
would appeal his case to the people
and he and his friends refused to
participate in the further delibera
tions of the convention, hut held a
caucus for tho purpose of nomina
ting an independert ticket.
Wo are pleased to know that
prominent supporters of Judge
Morgan in this county condemn
his action and will not support him
to that extent, And we are dis
posed to believe that Judge Morgan
simply allowed his temper to get
the better of him, and after the
heat of the contest has died away
he will recognize that he has made
a mistake and will accept the
situation in tho proper spirit.
