THE SUNDAY OkEGOXIAN, PORTLAND, AUGUST 15, 1920 9 K ; V fjOMIlTlfJGMEIHOO UP TO REPUBLICANS 44 Idaho Counties to Be Heard From Tuesday. FORMER PORTLAND GIRL, WHO WILL BE ON BROADWAY THIS SEASON. CONVENTION IS AUGUST 24 Conflicts on to Carn- Control of Delegates Candidates Not Sure ot Forces to Be Counted On. . i BOISE, Idaho. Aug. 14. (Special.) Republicans in 44 counties in this state will determine on next Tuesday Just how the first, state nominating convention 10 be held in Idaho since ' 1908. at Pocatello August 24. will proceed to name its congressional and state ticket. Under the amended law, August 17 is set as the date when the conventions of all political parties in the respective counties must be held to select their delegates to the state conclave. Democratic county conventions will be held on the same date, but the interest is not directed toward the democrats at this par ticular time. Decauoe mere uu . uut . appear to be conflicts over delegates 1 on the part of aspirants for office. Such a situation is not true of the republican party. Every effort is being made by its several leading candidates to gain sufficient dele- gates in the state convention to con trol. It can be said now, however, that the county conventions on Tues day .will not instruct a majority of the delegates to the sta,te convention for any candidate for senator, con gressman, governor or other state of fice. The majority in that convention will be unlnstructed delegates, who may enter into a series of combina tions in order to nominate what they believe will be a winning ticket. , Senator and Governor Involved. ,' Candidates have had an opportunity to check up their, forceabut if the truth were admitted it would be con ceded the survey has .been highly unsatisfactory. Relatively' speaking, it is possible, since.' the- holding of the primary, to give an idea of the strength these candidates are likely to have when the state convention is called to order. The contest is to resolve entirely and almost exclu sively around the senatorship and governor. If certain combinations and trades are made, it may have some bearing on the representative, but that does not seem likely now. It seems to be quite generally con ceded by republican party leaders that Representative French will be renominated from the 1st congres- wlonal district and -that Addison T. Smith will be renominated from the 2d congressional district; that present state officials will be renominated, as follows: Attorney-General Black, Sec retary of State Jones, State Auditor Gallett. Superintendent of Public In struction Ethel E. Redfield. Two Vacancies Remain. Two vacancies remain to be filled en the state ticket, state mine in spector and stats treasurer. State Mine Inspector Bell will not be a candidate for renomination.' ' He has held the office for many years and has decided to retire.- There, are two known candidates in the race for the nomination, W. V. Leonard of Boise and Stewart Campbell of Hailey. State Treasurer Eagleson is'not a candidate for renomination, but is in the guber natorial contest. Captain Banks of Caldwell Is among those actively con testing for the treasurership. The senatorship is, of course, the hub around which the entire political and pre-convention situation is re volving. Frank R. Gooding, Colonel L. V. Patch .and Captain A- .H. .Coo? nor are the three leading contestants. Three other candidates In the run ning. C. W. Beale, Colonel B.-G. Davis and Miles Cannon, are .taking more of a secondary positipn. but if there is not a quick nomination of one of the first three named they will' a' velop into decidedly important factors. ' New Factor Knterfl. Gooding, because of the forceful ness of his campaigns in the past and present, is making a strong showing. He was defeated by Nugent at the general election two years ago, which la an argument that is being used with some effectiveness against him. .Colonel Patch and Captain Connor may be reviewed so far as their political strength is concerned col lectively. Considering them so, they represent the new and highly impor tant factor in Idaho politics, the ex service men's vote. Both saw service at the front and have excellent war records. -While neither is as widely known as Gooding, they still have a big acquaintance over the state.

There is an old saying, "Distant fields look greenest," and yet it is true that many a business man has failed to make a proper success because he kept too close to his. business.. : '. We need to stand apart from our business our community and make a survey in order to see our mistakes and our opportunities in a clear way. Let us look at the figures given below and con template the future of our country. Every man, woman and child has more wealth per capita in the United States than in any country in the world. ' With only 6 per cent of the world's pop'ulation, this country has : . 7 of the world's land . 70 of the world's copper 16 of the world's oil 33 of the world's silver 52 of the world's coal 40 of the world's iron and steel 20 of the world's gold 85 of the world's automobiles 40 of the world's railroads No temporary condition can effect the one big fact that the United States is bound, to be a winner in the long run, and to have a large part in the world trade. Nor can it alter the fact that the Pacific north west is most favorably situated to share in this trade nor can any one who thinks clearly and who knows the resources of the "Columbia basin doubt for one minute that Portland is to become a great center of world trade, of industry and manufacture.
