Notwithstanding the many encomiums appearing in the press regarding the so-called cab inet form of state government, 11 an impelled by indisputable facts to state that this new government is in my opinion not only leas ef ficient than our constitutional "board form of state govern ment,'' but it is more expensive and infinitely less secure, Idaho has tremendous interests in timber, water, land and securi ties, already more dollars worth of cash and securities than are held by any three banks of our state. Banks are governed by elective boards, that the stock holders and depositors may be better protected. I cannot think the people of Idaho want other than the same kind of protection, which would mean safe, sane, con struetive and constitutional con trol of their public business Buy Your Wife A Hot Point Electric Iron Something She Will Always Appreciate Grangeville Electric Light and Power Company I am in favor of an expert, well paid public service. Experienced assistants in the state treasurer's office are now handling three times the volume of business that came to the office at the beginning of my service, with the addition of but one clerk, and only for a time, to keep the work from pil ing up, lias an extra clerk been employed. I believe a very ma terial reduction in the expense of operating many of our 'state de partments can be had, and at the same time increase their efficien cy. If elected governor, it will be my chief ambition to execute the duties of that office along the same business lines I have follow ed in the treasurer's office. I am in favor of applying the waters of our state to the great est possible acreage and use. In the subsequent opening of new lands for settlement, I favor giv ing the Idaho War Veterans every consistent preference right. I favor a vote by the people on the proposition of selling the state timber and timber lands, with proper safeguards covering dis posal to manufacturers and the retail price of lumber to the peo ple. During recent years the in come from our timber hafc scarce ly exceeded the outlay for fire protection. Last year our fire pro tecciou cost $97,644 and our tim ber sales amounted to $104,576.36, and it is estimated that 5,000 acres of our timber lands were burned over. Our tax payers are losing the benefits of this tremendous resource. The timber and timber lands in private ownership will yield interest on the sale price, will bear their share of taxes, and will increase the competitive pro duction of lumber, and the state's revenue may thus be increased two or three million dollars per year. Our civilization is yearly grow ing n\ore complex and indepen dent, and our state is surely in the van of human progress and growth. Our laws must be made to meet these new conditions and still keep in harmony with our constitution. I am in favor of all general measures safeguarding the people's interests, or assisting their mutual activities* If elected governor, my earnest desire and effort will be to give the people a fair, progressive, economical and constitutional administration. Respectfully submitted, John W. Eagleson. Order to Show Cause Why Order of Sale of Real Estate Should Not be Made.
