STRONG OPPOSITION TO BORAH APPEARS Qld-Line Republicans Still Hurt That Senator Sup i ported Roosevelt. RE-ELECTION TO BE SOUGHT Democrats Making Capital Out of .Plea to Oivc President Support of His Own Tarty Instead or Depending oh Kepublicans. BOISt:. Idaho. Oct. 13. f. Special.) Senator Borah will be a candidate to succeed himself in the United States Senate. There has been a quiet cam paign under way that is anti-Borah in its tone. The friends of the senior Senator have been aware of the fact, as well as the Senator himself. At tacks have been macle against his rec ord in t'oneress rlurine the past year. Senator Borah says that he is willing aud ready to stand on the record he has made and to meet those opposed to him in the open, before the people, on that record. He asserts that he is back of Prevident Wilson in the war crisis, and that he has been since Con gress decided that a state of war ex isted between the L'nited States and CJermany; that he has persistently nrped the people to get solidly behind the President and to waee the present war to a victorious conclusion. Hard llcht Predicted. Political leaders here are frank to confess that there will probably be a harder fiplit on Senator Borah at the next tceneral election than there ever has been. This is due to the. desire of the democrats to have one of their own members in the Sen ate to carry out Democratic policies. The war will be tile issue, and the cam paign cry will be to prive the President support from members of his own party. The Borah backers will stand for the re-election of the senior Sen ator on liis record, which has been a ftronsr one. especially in support of the "Western settler. They declare that the vast majority of the electors in Idaho are not going; to foreet the efforts Senator Borah has made for them or the prominence into which he lias brought the state. While the Senatorial situation has not as yet shaped itself fully to the satis faction of the Democrats, a' strong boom for ex-overnor .fames H. Hawley has been launched. The New Freedom. . leading Democratic paper published here, seems to be the principal sponsor for Mr. Hawley. Old I,in Republican! Opponed. This anti-Borah sentiment exists among that class of Republicans who have been disgruntled ever since the Chicago convention of 1912. following which Senator Borah openly supported Theodore Itoosevelt in his stand, and declared that .Mr. Taft was not the choice of a. majority of the delegates. Keen parly leaders here point out that it is from this quarter that Senator Borah lias-the most to fear, because in the heat" of a campaign the bitterness against the senior Senator is likely to crop out from among some of those who are now urging him to be a can didate to succeed himself. While Frank R. Gooding and James K. Ailshie. both or whom signified their willingness to become candidates at the Republican primaries for United States Senator, if Senator Borah withdrew, it is likely that they will not enter the primaries if Senator Borah decides to make the race. This would give the senior Senator a clear field for the nomination. Th situation is developing into OTje of the most interesting that has con fronted party leauers in the state' for years.
