$12,000 Fee Demanded for Prose
cution of Treasury Fraud Just
as State Expects to Get Its
Money From Bondsmen.
BOISE, Idaho, July 29. (Special.)
Without a candidate placed in nomina
tion -up to today and with but six more
days in which to make their filings for
Congressional or state office, the Demo
cratic party in Idaho will have to do
some hustling during the next week
to complete its ticket. '
. There are a. number of aspirants,
but they have been holding back,
awaiting the filing of Governor Alex
ander. They are reluctant to get into
the running unless the Governor defi
nitely settles the question as to whether
or not he is to be a. candidate.
There has been trouble brewing
within the Democratic party ever since
the fight that broke out at the Poca-
tello convention over the re-election of
Robert H. Elder, National committee
man. It culminated recently in the
forwarding of a protest by Northern
Idaho Democrats to Vance McCormick
chairman of the Democratic National
Committee, against Mr. Elder and
State Chairman Pence, of Boise, who
are held responsible for the lack of
candidates.
The charge is that these two are
concerned only over complete control
of the distribution of Federal- patron
age. This is indignantly denied.
Moose Leader for Hnghei.
The entrance of D. "W. Smith, Prose
cuting Attorney of Bannock County,
into the race at the Republican pri
maries, as a candidate for Attorney
General, attracted interest among Re
publicans this week. Until his filing
the race was supposed to be between
M. J. Sweeley. of Twin Falls: C. A.
Sunderlin, of Burley, and possibly Guy
Martin, of bandpoint.
The leading Progressive of Northern
Idaho, Guy Martin, four years ago th
Progressive party standard-bearer, as
a candidate for Governor, has gone over
into the Republican party and is in the
Hughes procession. In a statement
given out for publication he says:
I shall support Mr. Hughes for President
in the coiuins: election. Having allied
myself -with the Progressive party in 1912
and Having been Its candidate for Governor
In that year and having supported the
party since that time. I feel .that it
only fair that I should announce putjlicly
what my attitude will be in the coming
campaign.
1 believe Justice HuKhes is the best man
the Republicans could nominate. His work
as Governor of New York has been pur
sued with an entire singleness or purpose,
that is, to give to the people of New
Tork a fearless, progressive administration,
Insofar as its chief executive could give it.
X have an abiding faith in his integrity
and ability, and firmly believe that, if he
is elected, he will, as President, display
the same executive qualities which he dis
played as Governor of the state of New
York, via-: Great ability, prompt decision
and xlrm. steady adherence to his Judg
ment, when formed.
Wilson Policy Condemned.
T believe that President Wilson is honest
and sincere, but his policy In -Mexico and
his dealings with other nations has been
of such a contradictory and vacillating
character that he has brought the United
States into disrepute in every foreign na
tion. It will require years to overcome
lils mistakes and to give the Nation the
landing it once had with foreign nations.
This cannot be done with a continuance
of Mr. llson s policies in dealing with
other nations. It can only be accomplished
by fair, . firm. Just treatment of foreign
nations and rights of their subjects and by
an insistence upon the same kind of treat
ment for this country and its subjects and
by speedy and adeauate preparation bv this
Government to resist any aggression against
the United States or its subjects, wherever
xney may De louna.
Some Progressives are supporting Wilson,
some may vote a third ticltet, but it seems
to me. entirely without criticism of th-
course which other Progressives may feel
bound to pursue, that the duty of every
progressive is to support Mr. Hughes.
Questions of domestic policies must neces
sarily he left for later determination, but
upon these. I am clear that Mr. Hujrhel
stands for substantially every policy which
the Progressives hive adopted, and I feel
sure that no Progressive will ever have
cause to regret that he supported Mr.
uugnes.
S1S.OCO Fee Is Asked.
Just when the state had reason to
believe that the settlement with the
National Surety Company to cover the
shortage in the treasury department
had been reached, the filing of a lien
against the Judgment of $145,264.30, se
cured in the Third Judicial District for
Ada County, was made by T. C. Coffin,
special assistant Attorney-General, to
obtain the payment of $12,500 attorney
fees and $300.05 expenses of the trial,
alleged due him.
Not for some time has there been
such a stir over the treasury contro
versy as has been created by the fil
ing of the lien. This is especially true
as it had been supposed Mr. Coffin, as
assistant to the Attorney-General,
would obtain such fee as he thought
he was entitled to from the appropria
tion for the Attorney-General made by
the Legislature two years ago.
HOOD WANTS BETTER ROAD
City and County Officials Will Co
operate on New Plan.
HOOD RIVER. Or., July 19. (Spe
cial.) An impromptu meeting of local
road enthusiasts from both city and
valley, with Amos S. Benson and J.
B. Teon Thursday night has started
agitation that may lead to a revolution
of the handling of road work in Hood
River County. According to the new
plans, it is proposed to make a county
road district of the city of Hood River
and thus secure closer co-operation be
tween city and county officials in the
construction of good roads.
At present, a stretch of the East Side
grade road, connecting the city with
the East Side orchard district, is with
in the city limits. Under the proposed
arrangement the county would under
take the improvement of the highway
within the corporate limits. The city
officials would be given more of a
voice in county road matters, but the
city would furnish a greater propor
tion of road funds.

Charles H. Morris, of Dallas.
DALLAS. Or, July 29. (Spe
cial.) Charles H. Morris, newly
elected president of the Oregon
Retail Jewelers' Association, is a
resident of Dallas, where he has
resided and continuously fol
lowed the jeweler's trade since
1893. This election came rather
as a surprise to Mr. Morris, as he
was compelled to remain away
from the recent convention in '
Albany and' therefore was not
present when elected.
Mr. Morris is a native Orego
nian, having lived in Polk and
Marion counties all his life. He
was born on a farm near Turner,
in Marion County, March 24",
1867. In 1887 he started in Salem
to learn the Jeweler's trade.

GIFTS FOR GUARDS HELD UP
Men in Xew Mexico and Arizona
Fail to Get Presents.
DOUGLAS, Ariz., July 29. At a meet
ing of chaplains of the Regular Army
and National Guard organizations sta
tioned along the border in Arizona and
New Mexico, held here today, a dis
cussion is said to have revealed the
fact that tons of supplies sent by
friends of National Guardsmen to the
various organizations in which they
are interested have failed, to reach the
guardsmen Insteady of being distrib
uted, as they should, dainties, extra
clothing and other comforts intended
to make border duty more pleasant for
the men were said to be stored in ware
houses, doing no good to the men.
The chaplains requested that the peo
ple of the country be advised that in
sending presents to relatives or friends
in the National Guard the packages
should, be sent in care of the chap
lains attached to the particular or
ganization of which they are members.
BILLY -SUNDAY HEEDS CALL
Noted Evangelist to-Aid Temperance
in British Columbia.
HOOD RIVER, Or., July 29. (Spe
cial.) Billy Sunday, the noted evange
list, has agreed tentatively to aid the
temperance cause in British Columbia.
The decision came as a result of a visit
from a Victoria delegation here Thurs
day.
According to the present plans of Mr.
Sunday, the evangelist will leave here
next wek for a short tour to Portland,
Seattle, Victoria and Vancouver. Mr.
Sunday, in addition to his temperance
lecture in Portland, probably will ad
dress the Portland Ad Club. The tem
perance talk, Mrs. Sunday thinks, will
be given at the White Temple.
But according to our ideas, says
Mrs. Sunday, "the place is rather
small.'
SEASIDE. Or.. July 29. (Special.)
That the relics of the oldest remaining
traces of white man's handiwork in the
great Oregon country, now only a
little crater-like mound of rocks the
recenUv-unearthed salt cairn con
structed by the Lewis and Clark expedi
tion in 1805 Just prior to the departure
from Seaside on the long trail east
ward shall be fittingly preserved and
marked by a permanent monument, was
made certain at the meeting this week
of the Lewis and Clark Salt Cairn As
sociation. The programme for the fete
for 1916 was outlined, committees ap
pointed and plans perfected for cre
ating a permanent fund, by means of
which the pretty park in which the
salt cairn is located may be - further
improved and maintained.
The meeting, held at the Hotel Moore,
was enthusiastic and in every way re
flected the interest in the forthcom
ing celebration of August 19.
Anna Are Explained.
I. N. Fleischner, president of the as
sociation, addressed the full member
ship of the official board in explain
ing the aims for the creation of a per
manent fund. Mrs. Dan J. Moore, vice-
president of the association, and one
of the most ardent workers for the
movement for preservation of the cairn
where the explorers collected and re
fined the salt for their long return
journey, had seen to it that nothing
had been left undone in the preliminary
plans, and the result was that the
meeting found itself prepared to go
ahead with vigor toward making the
fete even a greater success than the
first open-air celebration of last year.
This year's ?ete, like that of last
year, will be held on the grounds of
the Hotel Moore, which will be en
closed with canvas and fitted, with
booths where will be flower girls,
pretty candy sellers, gaily-decked fortune-tellers
and all sorts of places
whereby those inclined to spend for
the benefit of tb.e monument fund may
find opportunity. There will be a mu
sical programme with a short address
or two, not enough to take away from
the carnival- spirit, and. dancing in i
big pavilion which is to be built ad
joining the boardwalk
