Orofino, Idaho, June 27, 1912 .10 .05 Roosevelt said he would sup port the nominee of the Chicago convention, but with characteristic foresight he forgot to mention which convention. Can it be that Good Old Honest Jim Hawley is a reactionist; he is reported against the planks calling for the iniative, referendum and recall. Surely there must be some mistake. Fred Woods of Lewiston, and his 1,100 bolters are apt to become as famous in history as Henry Watterson and his 100,000 Ken tuckians. By the way, what's the matter with Fred's nomination for governor on* the Roosevelt ticket. Mr. Roosevelt once said he would crawl on his hands and knees the full length of Pennsyl vania avenue to elect Mr. Taft. We suppose he would now roll over and over the full length of the avenue to secure his defeat. Mr. Bryan says the democrats in Baltimore have their steam roller too. If this is the case it will simply be a race between the rollers with the advantage with Mr. Taft, for it must be remem bered he is a member of the Steam Shovellers Union, which should give him a slight advantage. Mr, Roosevelt must get small consolation from the doings of the democrats at Baltimore. If Mr- Clark is nominated, with a holt, and there is no sign of one ai^ywhere along the line, the democrats must surely win with a united party and then if Mr. Bryan is nominated which seems likely, he too will absorb largely the Roosevelt voter, who no doubt will in his anxiety to defeat Mr. Taft, and as there is little difference between Roosevelt and Bryan politics, both being largely tlve fruits of Mr. Bryan's nimble brain, consider a bird in the hand worth two in the bush and make assurance doubly sure by sup porting the democratic nominee. AR eyes in Idaho are now fixed on Senator William E. Borah. Mr. Borah, in a statement given out after the republican conven tion, said he was for Roosevelt and Roosevelt policies, hut added, that he did not know what course he would pursue, hut all might depend upon it Idaho was for Roosevelt, really meant by this declaration it is hard to determine. If he meant that a majority of men, formerly affiliating together as republicans, were for Roosevelt if he still re mained a republican, he was no doubt right. But if he meant that a majority of men, formerly act ing together as republicans, would follow Colonel Roosevelt out of the party we think he was wrong. This is clearly indicated by the action of the Roosevelt delegation at Chicago, that refused to join the bolters and remained and voted to the end. The success of the'candidacy of Senator Borah seems to clearly lie in his own hands, and it will take all his great popularity as well as much skill and cunning to save his candidacy from the rocks this fall. What Mr. Borah The long expected has happened in Chicago. Mr. Roosevelt bolts, and after mature deliberation de clares he will have nothing to do | with the name republican, pro gressive or otherwise. This comes as a surprise to many of his friends who had hoped that thev might retain the old n.crini i; . j, , zation, and the old name, repub liean, with the prefix progressive.! Whether the new organization,! I which seems to have no founda i tion or principles upon which to build except Mr. Roosevelt's ambi tion for power and a few catch phrases such as "Bully," "My Hat is in the Ring," "Let the people rule," which interpreted by Mr. Roosevelt me ns, .50 at .10 .05 long as they continue Morgan, Perkins, Cormick, Flinn and myself at the head of th.n; c These catchy little phrases, together with much noise and confusion will be the tenets of faith of the new party. Meanw.hile the real leaders of Mr. Roosevelt's candidacy, Mr. Hadley, Mr. Borah and scores of others, now realizing his real aim and object in forcing his candi dacy at this time, have left his sinking ship and are busy declar ing their allegiance to the old is is party. Coo ling For Clagstone. Boise, June 21.—Governor Frank K. Gooding tod ly expressed his intention of supporting Paul Clagstone of Bonner county for the republican gubernatorial nomination. He said: I am supporting Mr. Clagstone for the reason that he more fully repre sents my views on subjects under con sideration by the people than of the other candidates whose names have been mentioned for governor. I be lieve him to be an honest, consciencious gentleman, fully qualified to fill the position of governor. He is criticized by some as being young and without experience in public affairs. I do not feel that it is a crime to be young. Youth is something none of any of us gives up with any particular feeling ot pleasure. I do not consider Mr. Clag stone's youth as objectionable—he is 41 years old and has had a very wide bus iness experience, having been active in business affairs since early manhood. No one in northern Idaho has taken a greater part in the development of that portion of the country, he has been especially active in agricultural devel opment, has taken great interest in the recognition of livestock as a bi'anch of farming, and is recognized everywhere in the state as the farmer's friend. "In the matter of the control of cor porations in Idaho. Paul Clagstone is with the people, and he stands now as their.hest representative for the high office of governor. During one ses sion of the legislature he served the people as speaker of the lower house. And largely through his efforts was it possible at that session to secure the fulfillment of the republican platform promises, and to prevent the enact ment of unwise and corrupt legislation. I shall give him all possible support for the nomination and if nominated for election, am confident that he will succeed and will give the people a wise, thoughtful, progressive admin istration." Clagstone's principal opponent is John T. Morrson, ex-governor, for the reason that the two stand for practically the same things and therefore draw from each other more than from the other candidates. Morrison is meeting with strong opposition because of his connection with the defence in the trial of the men accused of murdering Governor Stunenberg. It is charged that he simply took a fee for his influ ence as a recent governor and that it was largely through his efforts that Steve Adams repudidated his confes sion corroborating that of Harry Orch ard, which repudiation knocked out the prosecution's case because of the rule of law thnt conviction cannot be had on the unsupported testimony of an accomplice. he of it of If a no it no of of his his The Senator Resolution. The Boise Statesman of recent date says: Governor Hawley has received from P. C. Knox, secretary of state in Presi dent Taft's cabinet, a true copy of the joint resolution proposing an amend ment to the constitution providing that the senators shall be elected by the people of the several states. The copy was sent by the governor to W. L. Gifford, secretary of state, who will present it to the legislature next January for ratification or rejec tion in accordance with the request from Secretary Knox. It is as follows: "Resolved by the senate and the, house of representatives of the United States of America in Congress assem bled (two-thirds of each house concur- ' ring therein I, that in lieu of the first paragraph of section 3, of Article I of the constitution of the United States, and in lieu of so much of paragragh 2, of the same section as relates to the filling of vacancies, the following be proposed as an amendment to the con stitution, which shall be valid to all in ... do | stitutioil w l he ' „yfiedby the legisla tures of three-fourths of the states: "The senate of the United States I „ , , , of shaU 1h ' composed of two senators, ,lom taih state * eleuted l> y tlu ' people ' r ° r six years; and each senator shall have one vote.

Webster Defines— The "Abstract of title (law : An epitome of the evidences of ownership." negative evidences are, in practice, even more important than the positive. It is from these negative evidences, which ate frequently overlooked, that nine tenths of all title-troubles spring. They show whether there are standing against the title, taxes, assessments, judgments, mortgages, liens-whether title has properly passed by will or administration, probate or heirship, etc. The information ahoiit such tilings is widely scattered in the public records, hut in nir complete records every existing piece of evidence is gathered together and filed together under the individual piece of property concerned.
