"As a citizen of Idaho, I object to the president sending Fred Dubiise, a federal appointee in the ordnance department at $7500 a year, into Idaho to tell us what to do in politics. This is the second time this has occurred recently as Dubiise was at Boise during the platform conventions, and is said to have been instrumental in securing the support of the nonpartisans league for Senator Nugent. While it has probably been at the public expense this is not the principal thing. I object to the broad policy of the action as being detrimental to the public good.

I object to the broad policy of the action as being detrimental to the public good. I object to the broad policy of the action as being detrimental to the public good.

I am going to renew by efforts for election, and feel confident I shall be successful in spite of all that has happened. I know the people of my state do not question my loyalty or devotion to the flag, and I am sure they will not brook interference on the part of the president in the affairs of which they alone have the right to be master."
