BOISE. Idaho, July 3. (Special.) Idaho political leaders and politicians have just gone through a week of worry and trouble in an effort to comply with tho provisions of the amended election law to place dele gales to county conventions, candi dates for county office and the legis lature, in nomination, and it is put ting it inildly to say they are thor oughly disgusted with the act passed by the last legislature. It seems certain that one of the main issues in tho coming state campaign is to be thf primary election law. in an uttenint to remedy some of the defects of that law the last legis lature repealed it as to the nomina tion of congressional and state candi dates, leaving that to a convention. The result is just what was feared a. drifting back to the political ma chine and its domination over party political affairs. Borah to Sound Keynote. Senator Borah will within a ehort time deliver an address in which ha will express and make clear his atti tude to the electors of Idaho. That address is to bo somewhat of a key- note on state issues and will prob ably be delivered in Boise. He will therein discuss the present law and point out the defects in it and at the same time will appeal to electors to insist on a remedy which will give back to tho people the greater direct voting powers that were taken from Ilrin(ri 1 lift TH CA nf th nW act. As ho expects to remain here I Dear Mr. Noble. most of the summer his influence will be very likely felt in the cam paign. Democrats "Wait Watchfully." Tho fight in the state promises to become intensified now that the democratic national convention has been held. There is much speculation over tho state ticket and especially the governorship for that reason. In this county, Ada, the largest in the state. Governor Davis, who is a candi date for renomination and State Treasurer John AV. Eagleson, who ia running in opposition to him, are active in attempting to get control of the county's 35 delegates. Democrats are "watchfully wait ing" and will likely remain patient In that attitude while the lepubli cans are deciding who their candidate comjne to the show, t m . . . . ... ...ill l.A 'P 1 . . . ..-til I lUt VL'1UU Will UC i IICJ ,1111 thereafter pick tho strongest man they can to run. in that connection the namo of another man lias been linked with the governorship. Judge . lid L. Bryan oC Caldwell. While not a candidate in any senso of the word the friends of Judgo Bryan arc quietly working in his behalf and hope to be ablo to induce him to come out for the democratic nomination, Women Propose Activity. Women of Idaho propose to take a more active Interest in politics. Thi is the notice that tho Idaho Council of Women Voters has served on the leaders of political parties. Because the state nominating law has been changed, tho women propose to get Into the race for position of delegates ; to the state conventions and there '. take an activo part in the nomination ' f candidates for the several offices. Mrs. Caroline McDougall, a resident Boise and Ada county delegate to tile state convention at Coeur d'Alene , whero she was elected an alternate to the republican national convention has returned home from Chicago. She was the only woman from Idaho hold ing a seat in tho convention hall, The nominating of Harding she be , licves was one of tho .wisest things the parly could have done and she I believes he will receive the support of women generally over the country. $400 Worth of Clothes Stolen.

PAUL NOBLE I Manager, Liberty Theater Portland, Oregon The show business is booming at this time and we are glad, for that means good playe, and an evening at the play a good play, is our favorite indoor sport. A good play has a heart and a soul and means something; it's not only entertainment, it teaches a lesson in a way that counts. and after the show, and every day in every year people use automobiles, and these automobiles have tires, many of them are Lee Tires we think all ought to be Lee Tires. Because the Lee, like a good show, has a way that counts with t discriminating people. In the first place Lee Tires are made of the best rubber we can buy, and Egyptian long staple cotton; from this cotton is produced fabrics of great textile strength. INDIANS HOLD COUNCIL liOVK FliVST CELEBRATED BY THREE TRIBES. In the second place the carcass is partly cured, the tread is partly cured, then tread and carcass are united in the finished product a different idea which eliminates overcuring and consequent weakness. 1'uJl War Regalia to Be Worn To morrow and Parade AVIH Be One of Features.

HOQUTAM, Wash., July 3. (Spe cial.) Milk on Grays Harbor is now belling for 12 cents a quart, with In dications of it going down to 9 cents, as a. result of a milk war declared by the Grays Harbor Dairymen's asso ciation against a group of indepen dent farmers of the Satsop district who have been operating through tho bat sop farmers dairy here. Members of the Dairymen's assocta tlon say the price of 124 cents a quart, which has been charged by the Eatsop Farmers' dairy since it began operations here a little more than a month ago. Is below cost of produc Uon. Following the cut by the DairHW u.uti a ttouui.inLiwii i ii c dLoup organi zation is contemplating a reduction. In the third place there s an extra cushion, a matter of considerable importance, between the cords. These are technical features, but in plain words the result of this process in manufacturing Lee Tires means more mileage, diminished expense, less trouble dividends. And we're all looking for dividends on the investment; in other words results. i Lee Tires give results. Another thing: Lee Inner Tubes are the only tubes still made in accordance with government specifications of pure gum. These are some reasons why Lee Tires, like good shows, grow in popularity and enjoy long runs they satisfy; they "mean something." FAIRGROUNDS IS GIFT WllHutt Follman Makes Present of Site to Baker.
