KOISK. Maho. March 6. The ripht
of United States Senator John F. Nu
Rent, junior member from Idaho tn
tbe upper halls of congress, to suc
ceed himself is being questioned by
those in his party who have never
been classed as his admirers and who
believe that even if nominated he
cannot be elected. It had been gen
erally taken for granted that Nugent
would escape opposition in the next
ftate convention. But it Is now clear
this is not to be. Anti-Nugent forces
have been busy for the last few
months. If Nugent is to be nominat
ed it is clearly apparent he will have
to start oiling up his political ma
chine, and that quickly, for the oppo
sition has an excellent start.
Democrats who do not believe Nu
gent can be elected even if nominat
ed, have exceptionally strong prospec
tive senatorial timber in William M.
Morgan, present chief justice of the
state supreme court, who may decide
to enter the race.
Fight oa IVogrnt Began.
Democrats are greatly Interested in
a report that appeared in a recent
issue of the T.in Kails Chronicle,
edited by W. M. Stevenson, former
state senator from Shoshone county,
at one time editor of the Wallace
rress-Times, and for many years
rlosely identified with the interests of
Harry L. and Jerome J. Day, promi

Morgan." said that paper, "and they
are frank in their statement of rca
sons, not that they feel less kindly
toward the junior senator or are less
ardently his admirers. They still bear
him good will, but they feel that he
cannot win. Either Patch or Gooding
can take his measure. His alignment
with the Nonpartisan league and other
radicals was responsible for his elec

Jlra Mentioned for Governor.
State Chairman Day having issued
the call for the state committee to
meet at Moscow and the time and
place for the state conventions having
been fixed, democrats are casting
about to get a lineup on candidates
for the congressional and state of
flees. No less than nine men are men
tioned for governor, which is not to
be taken as an indication by any
means that all of them will be in the
race. They are former Governor Al
exander, Boise; Judge James R. Both-
well, Twin Falls; W. T. Dougherty,
former secretary of state, Boise; D. I
Evans, Malad; William M. Morgan
chief Justice, Moscow; Joseph T.
Pence, former state chairman, Boise;
K. I. rerky, former United States sen
ator, Boise; Mayor Whitaker, Foca-
tello; T. A. Walters, former attorney
general, Caldwell. Dougherty, Evans,
Morgan, Pence, Perky and probably
Alexander can be eliminated, although
democrats are saying now that if it
comes to a showdown they may pre
sent such a determined argument to
Alexander that he cannot afford to
decline the nomination.
Republican Get Warning.
Any attempt made to pledge the
delegates from Idaho to the rep'ihli
can national convention at Chicago
in such a way as to embarrass or
jeopardize the interest of United
States Senator William E. Borah will
be frowned upon in this state, friends
of the senior senator declare. Bart
lett Sinclair, former state auditor,
active in rspubllcan party affairs,
sounded the feelings of the Borah
people when he said:
"Not a few republicans are hoping
that Senator Borah- may yet enter the
field as a candidate for president.
Let us assume that he is persuaded to
cast his hat into the ring. Indeed
the New Tork and in fact all of the
eastern papers and statesmen in
variably class the Idaho man not only
as a possible nominee for president
but a very probable one In the
event of Senator Borah's candidacy
at the national convention, it would
be embarrassing, to say the least, for
his home delegation to be there with
instructions to oppose him."
The Sinclair statement has served
i a warning to republicans In this
" ' iate not to become entangled in
propaganda campaigns.
Hornets' Nmt Stirred Up.
The Nonpartisan league seems to
have stirred up another hornets' nest
through an attack made by its offi
cial organ, the Leader, against the
organization known as the United
Americans. The Leader contended
that the United Americans is a secret
organization, and special mention was
made of some of the Idaho men iden
tified with its work. One of these was
E. H. Dewey, one of the leading bus!
ness men of Nam pa and In fact of
Idaho. Mr. Dewey was not slow to
come back.
"It Is unfortunate," he said, "that
It is necessary to form any organiza
rion to combat sedition, disloyalty and
the stirring up of class antagonism.
But It is necessary. So long as such
papers as the Idaho Leader are per
mitted to circulate, those who care
for their country and Its institutions
must take such steps as they can to
combat this insidious foe to Ameri
canism. This is the first that I had
heard anything about the United
Americans being a secret organiza
tion and it is so only in the minds of
those who see red when anything of
true Americanism and good citizen
ship is mentioned. The work of the
organization is open and aboveboard.
