widowed mother was quite poor and
taught little school by day and taught
Tom by night and this was all the educa-
tion he got. He soon became expert as
an operator and made some improvements
in the art. His skill attracted attention
among the elder operators in that region
One time his employer was called to
Boston on business and while there the
general manager said he very much
needed man who could keep up with the
man at the New York end of the line.
Edison was named and recommended in
glowing terms and he was ordered to
come at once and liberal pay was offered.
When he arrived and entered the Office
and announced his name the general
manager was greatly disappointed. The
young man was sbabbily dressed, awk.
ward ia manners, aud had such dull,
sleepy appearance that the men at the
other machines smiled and snickered as
much as to say, we'll, he'sa bust. If we
can't run the New York line he can't
better ship him back to Cleveland.
With bu! little faith the manager gave
him q place at the table. When his
fingers touched the key lie seemed sud.
denly impuIsed and awakened to new
life. His lips compressed, his features
frightened and for an hour he received
and transmitted and dashed off messages
and crowded the wire with such celebrity
that the manager never moved nor di-
verted his gaze and the men around could
hardly attend to their own Instruments.
Suddenly there was rest, a pause, and
the New York man said, "who in the
devil are you ?" He replied, ri am Tom
Edison, of Cleveland" and the New York
man said "shake." He had found his
match and more.
Not long after this he invented the
duplex system of sending two messages at
the same time over one wire, and Ia.
ter on the quadruplex system, and after
that any number of messages. From
that day to this he has been inventing
and making discoveries for The use and
comfort of mankind. He is but forty
seven years old, and is full of modest
faith and expectation in solving more of
the mysteries of nature and subduing her
elements TO mans control. What an ex.
ample he is to the boys and especially to
the poor boys of the land. Longfellow
said:
"IIives of great men all remind us
We may make our lives sublime"
But We can't do it all. 1t was not so
intended, but we can all do our part,
and do our best. An old man said:
"Men have not equal talents nor equal
opportunities, but it is every mans duty
to work up to the full measure of his
capacity. That is all that God or man
expects of him." This is good philoso-
ply, but it is hard on US. Not one in q
thousand comes up square to this rule
but we should all try. Old men have
many regrets for the errors of the youth.
Many time has memory accused me and
chided me for wasted hours and lost op.
portunities. Many sigh have | breath.
ed because I have done so little and
might have done so much.
This is the reason why I preach so
much that I have not practiced, and why

follies of youth. David felt all this
when he prayed, "Viait not upon me

No, no, said the philosopher, and right
there is the wonder of the invention. It
will not pay any attention to any sounds

lister the loudest clap of thunder, nor the
boom of the cannon, but it will receive

whole theory of sound as taught in the
books. Ifsound is carried by the waves
of air that the donkey or the cannon sets
in motion, why do not those waves reach
the phonograph as we'll as the ear. How
is it that little bug like the locust can

FIFTY.FIRST CONGRESS.

The Fifty-First Congress of the
United States convened last Tues
day noon. The roll call of the
House showed 327 members pres
emit and three absent. Thos. Reed,
of Maine, the Republican caucus
nominee, and J. G. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, the Democratic caucus nom
inee, were placed in nomination for
Speaker. The ballot resulted,
Reed 166, Carlisle 154. The rest
of the Republican caucus nominees
for the different Offices were elected
with the exception of Chaplain, the
nominee, Rev. Chas. P. Ramsdall,
being defeated by Rev. VIM. III.
Milburn, the blind Chaplain of the
preceding House. The Senators
and Representatives from the new
States of North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Washington, and the Repre-
sentative from Montana, qualified
and took their seats. This session
of Congress will have brought to its
attention number of matters upon
which the public has become well
informed by reason Of previous dis
sussions. Among them are the
Blair educational bill, bills to for
felt land grants, to declare trusts
unlawful, dependent pension bills,
to repeal the civil service law, the
oleomargarine tax, and various
other measures relating to the tar
iff, internal revenue and general
financial systems. There will also
be presented to the Senate the re-
suits of investigation during recess
by the dressed beef business sub
ject, arid lands, relation of Cana
dian railroads to the Interstate
commerce act and the commerci@i
relations existing between the Init-
ed States and Canada, ipeludlng
the Alaskan seal fisheries.
The silver questioa will speedily
come up in somc shape. Also, the

CLEANING OUT.

A force of men and teams under
the direction Mr.. w. D. Arnett
commenced work enlarging, clean
ing and strengthening the Sebree
ditch last Monday. The action OF
the Ditch Company in this regard
is characteristic. The work of
cleaning and repairing will be done
at time when the weather is ia
vorable, when there is no crowding
demand for water, and when the
defects of the past season are still
in mind. BY this plan the ditch
will be ready for use in the spring,
with only few days preparation,
as soon as there is demand for
water. Mr.. Arnett is a practical
ditch maker and irrigator; the work
is in good hands.

BENJAMIN's FIRST.

President Harrison's first mes
sage to Congress hardly comes up
to the average state document, un-
less its extreme length makes up
for its lack of interest and original
ity. The following extracts are OF
interest:
In pursuance of the charter
granted by Congress, and under the
terms of its contract with the gov
eminent of Nicaragua, the Inter
oceanic Canal Company has begun
the construction of the important
waterway between the two oceans
The excess of receipts over ex-
penditures for the last fiscal year
was, after providing for the sinking
fund, $57, 470,129. During the fiscal
year there was applied to the pur-
chase of bonds, in addition to those
for the sinking fund, $90,456,172
The estimated surplus for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1891. is $43,-
569, 522, which is more likely to be
Increased than reduced. The ex-
istence of SO large an actual and
anticipated surplus should have the
immediate attention of Congress
with view to reducing the receipts
of the Treasury to the needs of the
government.
After thus acknowledging a large
annual surplus, the existence Of
which his party vigorously denied
last fall, the message says:
The collection of moneys not
needed for public uses imposes an
unnecessary burden upon our peo-
pie.
Still when it comes to lifting this
burden the following is the princi-
pal remedy suggested:
The removal of the internal tax
upon tobacco would relieve an i'm
portant agricultural product from
burden.
According to this the people do
not want cheaper clothing, cheaper
hardware, cheaper necessities. But
they do want cheaper tobacco be-
cause the foreordained Benjamin
says so. In other words the person
who chews and Stops through a
pound of this necessity" a week,
needs it cheapened in order that he
may consume two pounds.
The total coinage of silver dollars
was on Nov. 1, 1889, $343, 63S, 001,
of which $3.50, 539, 521 were in the
reasury vaults, and $50,098, 480
were in circulation. Of the amount
in the vaults, $277, 1884 were rep
resented by outstanding certificates.
The evil anticipations which have
accompanied the coinage and use
of silver dollars have not been re-
allied.
Notwithstanding this fact the
message does not favor the free
coinage of silver, not even the coin
age of the 81, 100000 a month max
imum allowed by the present law.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1889-12-07

not in its fullness, because Christ
has not yet come to rule in person,
but for the present he rules throuh
the priesthood of the church, who
are his heterogeneous on earth.
Second-That this kingdom is
both temporal and spiritual king
dom, and should rightfully control
and is entitled to the highest allie
glance of men in all their affairs.
Third-That this kingdom will
overthrow the United States and all
other governments, after which
Christ will reign in person.
Fourth-That the doctrine of
"blood atonement" is of God, and
that under it certain sins which the
blood of Christ cannot atone for,
may be RENTED by shedding the
blood of the transgressor.
Fifth-That polygamy is a COM
mand of God which if a member
obeys he will be exalted in the
future life above those who no not.
Sixth-That the Congress of the
United States has no right under
the constitution to pass any law in
any manner interfering with the
practices of the Mormon religion.
Can men be made true and loyal
citizens by such teachings, or are
they likely to remain so surrounded
by such influences? Will men be-
come attached to the principles of
the constitution of the United States
when they hear the government
constantly denounced as tyrannical
and oppressive? 1t would be un-
reasonable to expect such a result
as it would be to expect TO
gather grapes from thorns or hgs
from thistles.
1t has always been and still is
the policy of this government to en-
courage aliens who in good faith
come to reside in this country to
become citizens but when man
of foreign birth comes here and joins
an organization, although profess
sedb religious, which requires of
h;m an allegiance paramount to
his allegiance to the government,
an organization that impiously and
blasphemously claims to be the
kingdom of God, to control it's
members under his immediate
direction, and yet teaches and prac-
tees a system morals shocking to
Christian people everywhere, and
under which the marriage of a man
to two or more sisters, or to a
mother and daughter is sanctioned
an organization that sanctions
blood atonement as a means of
grace, and murder as a penalty
for revealing the secrets of it's cere-
monies, and which for nearly half
a century has refused to acknow-
ledge the supremacy of the U. s.!
or render obedience to its laws, it is
time for the courts to pause and
inquire whether such an applicant
should be admitted to citizenship.
The evidence in this case estab-
fishes unquestionably that the
teachings, practices and aims ofthe
Mormon church are antagonistic
to the government of the
United States, utterly subversive of
good morals and the well being of
society, and that its members are
animated by feeling of hostility
towards the government and its
laws, and therefore an alien who is
a member of said church is not
fit person to be made a citizen Of
the United States.
