Mr. Barnes died in Spokane a short time ago of typhoid fever after an illness of two weeks. He had served just six months of his five-year term. The governor issued the following statement:
"I have decided to name Mr. Casady of Orangeville a member of the industrial accident board," said Governor Alexander. "The appointment will follow in due course of time."
Under the appointment, the governor credits Casady to Orangeville. While Casady resided in Orangeville for a number of years and at other places in northern Idaho since leaving here, he has been making his home in Boise for some time past. He is 60 years old and was born and reared in Des Moines, Iowa. He has practiced law in Idaho for the past 20 years.
Mr. Casady was at all times an active Democrat and was at one time honored with the chairmanship of the state wagon road commission that built the connecting link in the north and south road from Goff to Long Valley in 1901, receiving the appointment from Governor F. W. Hunt. In 1912, he was a candidate in the Democratic primaries for the nomination for state senator from this county and the official canvass of the votes gave him something like 100 votes.
In the words of one of the leading Democrats of this community, "Governor Alexander needs a guardian appointed for him."—Grangeville Globe.
