TO BACK UP BLAIR
Republican Committee Will In
terfere in 24th District.
BISHOP RUNS INDEPENDENT
Farmer Candidate From Friday Har
bor AVas Forced on the Ticket
and McMillan Is Out
for His Opponent.
SEATTLE, Oct. 2?. (Special.) The Re
publican state committee will interfere in
the Senatorial fight in the 24th district in
the interest of John L. Blair, Republican
nominee. The fight of William Bishop,
of Jefferson, independent candidate,
threatens the election of Dr. N. K. Mead,
of Port Angeles and the state organization
has dipped In to save one member of the
Senate.
Blair to a farmer living: near Friday
Harbor, in San Juan County. Photographs
of Blair show a striking resemblance be
tween the Senatorial candidate and James
J. Hill, president of the Great Northern
Railroad. That is something politicians in
Clallam, Jefferson and San Juan coun
ties discovered when the first prints rep
resenting Blair were sent out. It may
or may not strike the voters as a favor
able resemblance. The three counties'
have been pro-railroad and the coinci
dence will not hurt, anyway.
The nomination of Blair was forced.
The San Juan delegation was only nomi
nally for him and William Bishop would
probably have had four of the eix dele
gates if a break came. Bishop had Jef
ferson County and Blair had Clallam,
Jefferson and Clallam having equal
strength in the Senatorial convention.
The feeling against Bishop was bitter
and the first effort was made to nominate
Blair. That was impossible because of
the certainty of losing a majority of San
Juan delegates if Blair tried to deliver
them.
McMillan Favors Bishop.
It has never been denied that State
Railroad Commissioner John S. McMillin,
of San Juan, wanted Bishop named, nor
has it been denied that he asked B'.air to
get out of the way to permit a delivery
to Bishop. The latter insisted on time to
see lily friends and the "organization"
in the district headed by Lieutenant
Governor C. E. Coon, and decided to take
a heroic step and nominate Blair. Blair
delivered Clallam County solidly and the
unwilling San Juan County delegation
had to vote Jor its home candidate.
Bishop is not of a forgiving nature and
he will not overlook the causes for hie
defeat. He Is running independently.
The state committee is not afraid Bishop
will be elected, but that hla candidacy
will defeat Blair, the regular Republican
nominee. For that reason a strong plea
for Blair's support is being prepared and
will be scattered broadcast through the
district. Incidentally this circular will
make a plea for the election of the regular
Republican nominees for Representatives
from Jefferson County, where an inde
pendent ticket threatens.
Factional Fight In San Juan.
At the same time the state committee
Is lighting Blair's battles for him notice
comes aown trom San Juan county that
tne slate organization must keep Its
hands off the contest In that county. San
Juan has been placarded with posters and
circulars demanding the election of an
independent Republican ficket, headed by
State Representative William Shultz. who
wants to go back to the Legislature again.
Shultz is affllated with the organization
that is fighting State Railroad Commit
sloner John S. McMillin, politically and in
a business way. The factional fight has
become so bitter that the leaders at least
do not speak any more. Most of their
adherents are making a personal matter
of the contest.
Gene Gould, a eon of J. A. Gould, a
Friday Harbor banker, is the nominee on
the McMillin ticket, which is "regular."
Gould it not a friend of McMillin, but his
nomination was expedient.
The San Juan fight started long before
the county convention and on the face of
the returns Shultz seemed to have a ma
jority of the delegates. The McMillin
faction peddled out two offices and hold
one other man in their organization, giv
ing them a majority of two over Shultz.
The Shultz faction refused to attend the
regular convention, meeting by them
selves and naming an independent ticket,
which the Democrats have since Indorsed.
McMillin named a Democrat, Ed Delaney,
on his ticket as candidate for Sheriff, so
there Is not much of party politics in
volved in the struggle, though both fac
tions claim to be Republican.
"lovii With Bossism."
This understanding of the situation is
necessary to appreciate the circular and
the posters that are being spread
throughout San Juan by the Shultz fac
tion. Here Is the wuy the warning to
the state committee reads.
"Shultz of San Juan County. Delegates
for ?hultz did not bolt, but refused to
submit to bossism. Down with bossism
and one-man rule. Ivet the people rule.
J. S. McMillin, J. A. Gould, O. H. Culver
can't run us. We are cleaning house.
State committee, hands off. We are for
Cushman. Humphrey and Jones. Let us
alone. We are in this tight to win. We
have found Shultz all right, and we will
elect him again. McMillin, Culver and J.
A. Gould want 'Gene. The people want
Shultz and will have him. On November
6 the independent manhood of San Juan
County will assert itself. 'Rah for
Shultz. Shultz' postofiice address after
January 1 will be Olympia. Culver take
notice."
The state committee is accepting this
warning literally. Congressman Hum
phrey went up into San Juan before the
status of the tight was understood, but
he came back without involving him
self. Senator Piles spoke in two towns
but he avoided local Issues. He did plead
for Blair, however. The state committee
proposes to allow the county to settle its
own troubles. ,
Chance for a Socialist.
There is a possibility that a socialist
may be elected to the state Legislature.
He is John Cloak, a blacksmith and a
member of the City Council in Belling
ham. There are only SOuO votes registered
In Belllngham andi Cloak was elected to
the Council with 1100 votes. The Republi
can or Democratic candidate, must find a
majority out of the remaining 1900, or
thereabouts.
Of course. Cloak polled a better vote
as a Councllmanio nominee than he
should receive as a candidate for the
Legislature, but he is a most dangerous
factor in the senatorial contest.
Robert L. Kline is the Republican nomi
nee and P. M. Liddy is making the Demo
cratic, fight. Kline was an eleventh-hour
choice of the Belllngham Republicans.
Whatcom tried a direct primary nomi
nation and Charles E. Roth and L. N".
Griffin, twice in the legislature, made the
fight for the Senatorial nomination for
weeks. Then entered Kline at the last
moment. He was a former County Com
missioner, a butcher and a popular man
of the town. He won out by a big ma
jority. Friends of the defeated candidates are
said to be fighting Kline. He was not
named by the dominant faction In
Whatcom, and Harry Fairchild is de
clared not to be doing as much as he
could for him. Kline's friends are con
fident but the situation shows for itself.
There are four hard fights being made
against Senatorial candidates In King
County, but in only two districts
do the Republican candidates appear to
be' in serious danger. There is a strong
possibility of the election of Democrats
over W. G. Potts and B. M. Williams.
Senator Piles is coming hack home and
will spend three or four dnya campaign
ing in this county. His personal appeal
for party regularity and support for him
may be sufficient to save the two, but
without that the fight is dubious.

Salton Sea Will Now Dry Vp.
IMPERIAL Cal.. Oct. 27. The famous
Salton Sea, the creation of the runaway
Colorado River, must soon cease to be.
The work of turning the river back into
its old channel has progressed so that
the new river, which fed the sea from
the overflow water, is falling rapidly and
will entirely cease to discharge water
into the sea within two or three days.
The regaining of. the control of the Colo
rado came Just in time to save the South
ern Pacific from the necessity of building
a high line of railroad across the Colo
rado Desert, the water already being so
high that in time of windstorms the
track was endangered. The evaporation
of water on the desert Is about ten feet
a year, and it is estimated that it will
take seven or eight years for the Salton
Sea to wholly disappear.

A Certain Cor for Croup Caed for Ten
Years Without a Failure.
Mr. W. C. Bott, a Star City, Ind., hard

praise of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy:
His children have all been subject to

platform in which the party was pledged
to eradicate polygamy and to pass such
laws as might be necessary for the pur
pose. It arraigned the Mormon Church
for dictation in the politics of the state
and demanded that it keep its hands off.
The platform was emphatic in its con
demnation of the Mormon Church, and
Its adoption marked the formal opening
of a bitter campaign against those peo
ple and the practices which they are al
leged to be continuing.
Chief Justice Stockslager was nominat
ed for Governor. He Is a man of great
personal popularity,-a master of the art
of winning votes wherever he is known.
Attempt at Republican Stampede.
The action; of the convention alienated
the old Steunenberg element of the par
ty, as well as the Mormon Democrats.
Two years ago the party went Into the
campaign on the same kind of a plat
form, and at that time it did not receive
the support of the elements named. It
was cut up this year far worse than the
Republican organization over the Gov
ernor had been at any time, and the en
tire efforts of the leaders has been to
win Republican votes for the ticket. The
only chance for the ticket was to bring
about a Republican stampede.
The campaign has been fought with
that end in view, and, wherever possible,
wedges have been driven Into the Repub-

llcan column. Independent movements in
county affairs have been encouraged with
varying degrees of success, while the en
tire attention of the state committee and
the speakers has been devoted to the
Mormon question.
The first maneuver for division of the
Republicans was in Kootenai County.
There a bitter contest had been waged
within the party over the nomination for
District Judge of the First district, em
bracing Kootenai and Shoshone Counties,
Judge Ralph P. Morgan being defeated
for renomination by Robert Nr Dunn. In
this contest some of the powerful inter
ests of the Coeur d'Alene mining district
were arrayed against each other, and
some very sore spots were left in the
two counties.
It was determined, after a number of
conferences with Senator Dubois, that a
number of the supporters of Morgan
would bolt and assist in the election of
the Democratic county and legislative
ticket. That bolt was formally organized.
It was claimed it would take over 1000
Republican votes, but it does not seem
likely the defection will reach more than
half that number. As the county Is nor
mally about 2000 Republican, it is thought
by tho more optimistic Republicans it will
be carried by them by about 1000 and that
all the Republican candidates for the
Legislature will be elected with one pos
sible exception.
Bolt in Latah County.
In Latah County some dissatisfied Re
publicans united with the Democrats in
the nomination of an independent ticket.
That bolt, like the one in Kootenai, runs
to the state ticket, though organized on
county issues.
In Bingham Coutny an American party
was organized and placed a ticket in the
field. That will draw off a good many
non-Mormon Republicans, and they will
quite generally vote the Democratic state
ticket.
Fremont County has three tickets. One
is an Independent, another an American,
and the third the Republican. It is stated
that the non-Mormons generally will vote
the American local ticket and the Demo
cratic state ticket. If that prove true the
normal Republican majority will be
seriously reduced, though the Republican
ticket will still have a long lead. '
In Bannock County an effort to put up
an American party was made, but it
failed. The Democratic county ticket is
receiving the support of a few Repub
licans. The Democrats of Bear Lake and
Oneida Counties denounced the state plat
form and nominated independent local
tickets. Those five counties. Bingham,
Fremont, Bannock, Bear Lake and Onei
da, are largely Morgan.
Fusion Is Not Threatening.
In Ada County, in which the state capi
tal is located, there is a fusion between
the Democrats and dissatisfied Repub
licans, an independent ticket having been
put in the field, but It does not appear to
be making serious inroads on the Re
publican vote.
There are minor complications at many
other points. These mainly affect Gov
ernor Gooding, though the state ticket
throughout will undoubtedly suffer with
rim. There are evidences that these trou
bles are being cleared up quite largely,
but that many Republican votes will be
lost through them admits of no doubt.
The campaign has been conducted by
the Democrats on the Mormon issue sole
ly. Very little of anything else has been
urged by them. Their contest has been
conducted with great vigor and every pos
sible influence has been brought to bear
to arouse the people of the state to a
belief that it is necessary at this time to
take up and settle the alleged problem in
connection with the beliefs and practices
of these people.
Women on Stump for Democrats.
A number of speakers have come into
the state from other portions of the coun
try In the interest of the Democratic
ticket, conspicuous among these being
several women of great prominence and
talent. Among these were Mrs. Dieffen.
derfer, president of the Interdenomina
tional Council of Women, and Miss White,
the secretary, also Mrs. Schiff, president of
the National Congress of Mothers. These
ladies have pleaded very hard with the
women of the state to return Senator
Dubois to the Senate.
Judge Stockslager has not been on the
stump. He announced at the opening of
the campaign that ha did cot consider It
proper for one occupying a position on the
bench to enter a campaign. He has. how
ever, devoted some time to visiting in
various portions of the state.
The Republicans have denied that there
is a .Mormon issue; they have denied that
such conditions exist in the Mormon
counties as has been claimed by the Dem
ocrats. Moreover, they have declared that
the party is capable of enacting and en
forcing any legislation that may be need
ed to protect the homes of the state.
While they have held that the laws o'
the state are sufficient, they have an
nounced that, if any others are needed,
they will be enacted by a Republican Leg
islature. Good Record as Governor.
Affirmatively, the Republicans have
urged the excellence of the administra
tion of state affairs given by Governor
Gooding, the record having been exploited
exhaustively. Challenging the Democrats
to make his record as Governor the issue
of the campaign, the Governor has re
cited on every stump what has been ac
complished, and his challenge has not
been accepted.
Another and perhaps the most import
ant feature of the Republican campaign
has been the claim that it is necessary to
re-elect Governor Gooding with a large
majority in order to show the world that
the people of his state support the policy
he has pursued in prosecuting the men ac
cused of the murder of ex-Governor
Steunenberg. It has been pointed out
that the state Itself is on trial because at
the charges which have been made
against it and against its Governor in all
the Socialist papers throughout the coun
try, and in all those of the class of the
Hearst publications.
Emphasis has .been given this feature of
the contest by the sending of Secretary
Taft here to make two addresses for the
Governor on 'that issue. It has been made
known that President Roosevelt is deeply
interested in the outcome, believing that
IDAHO

the character of the agitation conducted
by the Socialists and their sympathizers
against the Governor because of his die-
charge of his duty is a matter of far
more than state concern, and it is an
open secret that he personally asked Taft
to make the trip. ,
Democrats Badly Demoralized.
While the Republicans are undoubtedly
badly demoralized in numerous localities,
the Democrats are in far worse condition.
It is openly charged by the especial
friends of Judge Stockslager that the
state committee has been neglecting his
interests entirely In order to prosecute a
campaign especially for Senator Dubois.
The Judge has said nothing indicating
any such feeling on his part, but Demo
crats unfriendly to Dubois or lukewarm
toward him do not hesitate to charge that
he is making a sacrifice of the candidate
for Governor.
An Incident on the Republican side that
may have a marked effect upon the ma
jority is the arrest of Robert Lansdon,
candidate for Secretary of State. He is
charged with having appropriated $40 se
cured as a rebate claimed to have been
allowed a sheepman on his taxes under
the migratory stock law. Taxes are paid
on stock In proportion to the time they
range in the county, and in the home
county a rebate is allowed on a showing
that taxes have been paid .to the amount
claimed in another county.
This alleged offense was committed in
1904, while Lansdon was Assessor of
Washington County, where he is now
Sheriff. There are other irregularities al
leged, and the case has created a bad im
pression. He may resign from the ticket,
but he cannot be forced off.
Mormons Give Up Plan.
At one time it was claimed the Mor
mons, in order to show they are not con
trolled politically by church Influence,
would largely vote for Stoskslager while.
uniting against Dubois. That report
caused qiute a flurry, but it was later
made apparent that those people would
not do so, since they would thereby be
likely to stir up feeling against themselves
among people who are fighting their bat
tles against Dubois and the Democracy.
While there seems no doubt that the Re
publicans will have a fair majority, the
claims made by the opposition are often
disturbing 'to Republican observers when
considered in connection with the well
known defection existing. Though It is
known the Republican ticket will receive
a great many Democratic votes, every
one is asking how that vote will compare
with the loss from the Republican ranks
in those localities where such loss seems
certain..
Judge Stockslager expresses himself as
being certain of election. There Is noth
ing to indicate that Senator Dubois is so
sanguine, while some of his friends pri
vately admit he is beaten.
That the Democrats are probably
over-sanguine respecting the Gover
norship is shown by their claims in
this (Ada) County. There seems no
doubt whatever that the county will
srive a majority of from 1200 to .sovj
for the entire Republican ticket; but
the local Democrats are claiming they
will carrv the county for Stockslager.
Such claims as that tend to stagger
Republicans who think they . know
what conditions are here.

Lansdon's determination to resign was
arrived at last night at Weiser, after con

but the law. as It is found to be. leaves
him a candidate in spite of the determina

the party managers .and candidates have
hoped Lansdon would resign, but the
whole matter has been extremely delicate.
They could not demand that he resign,
thus seeming to prejudge his case; yet
It has been felt that It would be to the
best interest of the party and the ticket
for him to withdraw.
Had it been possible for him to purl his
name off the ticket, another nomination
would have been made at once by the
committee, but now Lansdon must go be
fore the people in the attitude of a candi

be up to the voters to determine Whether
he shall be elected in face of the embar

to the charge against him. The Boise
Statesman will say in the morning that
the party is in effect without a candidate
for Secretary of State, since Lansdon's
name remains on the ballot in spite of
his desire to have it withdrawn. The
Statesman will further express the "opin

it is, in its opinion, the duty of Republi

Catarrh o! the Stomach
A Pleasant, Simple, bat Safe and
Effectual Cure for It.
COSTS NOTHING TO TRY.
Catarrh of the stomach has long been
considered the next thing to Incurable.
The usual symptoms are a full or bloat
ing sensation after eatingi accompanied
sometimes with sour or watery risings,
a formation of gases, causing pressure
on the heart and lungs and difficult
breathing, headaches, fickle appetite, ner
vousness and a general played out, lan
guid feeling.
There is often a foul taste In the
mouth coated tongue and if the interior
of the' stomach could be seen it would
show a slimy, inflamed condition.
The cure for this common and obsti
nate trouble is found In a treatment
which causes the food to be readily,
thoroughly digested before it has time
to ferment and irritate the delicate mu
cous surfaces of the stomach. To secure
a prompt and healthy digestion Is the
one necessary thing to do and when
normal digestion is secured the catarrhal
condition will have disappeared.
According to Dr. Harlanson, the safe
est and best treatment is to use after
each meal a tablet, composed of Dias
tase Aseptic Pepsin, a little Nux, Gold
en Seal and fruit acids. These tablets
can now be found at all drug stores
under the name of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets and not being a patent medicine,
can be 'used with perfect safety and as
surance that healthy appetite and thor
