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.

All work on the construction ot
pier 3 at the Port terminals was
stopped temporarily this morning

ployment of George Geisendorfer as

union last night the foreman's ap
plication for membership was re
jected on the ground that he had

company refused.

Opportunity
It is good for most of us to stop at times and
in a calm, careful, critical way analyze our situa
tion our opportunities. 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.
