those who were responsible for the
action-those who blasted the hopes

altar of cowardly self-interest. Mr..
Yost was nominated for the posit-

cation of the completeness of his

action in his behalf, it may be
stated that every committeeman of
his party in his county went on re-
cord as favoring him for the posit
ion. To the local north idaho in
dorsements were added those of
leaders all over the state. This
array of recommendation, both as
to the competency of the applicant
and as to his party standing. re-
suited in his being nominated.
No sooner had his nomination
been announced, however, than
steps were taken to prevent con6r-

made against him, Yost, and COM
ing to official ears in Washington,
an investigation was ordered. To |
make long story short, the result |
was that EVERY CHARGE WAS |

The question naturally arises,

tors OF the United States would
not stoop to such despicable meth
o3s purely for amusement. There
is only one solution of the matter
Dubois and Hei;feld prevented the
confirmation of Yost-
First-To create disturbance in
Republican ranks.
Second-To make a showing of
strength.
Third-To vindicate their action
in supporting the false charges.
In the first instance they reason :
ed. no doubt. it was a good move
politically to create all the dissen-
sion possible in REPUBLICAN ranks
And, had they succeeded. it would
have been a brilliant maneuver.
However, it has acted as boomer

In purely political sence, how !

in seeing men sent to

TNGRATUTUDE, THE TOPIC.
Sermon at East WashingtOn-Street
Presbyterian Church.

The Rev. Gustave Kimmel preached the
sermon at the Thanksgiving service of the
East Washington-street Presbyterian
Church yesterday. Mr.. Kimmel took as
his subject "Ingratitude." He said ingrati-
tude is one of the basest of sins. He said
the lack of appreciation of mercies re-
ceived or of sympathy given the part
of those we have befriended is more keen
than the winds of winter. He said that
this being true of the earth, what could
be more base than the ingratitude Of man
to God when thought is taken of the great
good of God to man? The attempt to count
the blessings of God are futile as the at
tempt of the SMALL boy when he tried to
count the stars, said Mr.. Kimmel.
In speaking of the thanksgiving time
of the present Mr.. Kimmel said:
Surely as a nation we have been a ia
vored people and have abundant reason for
devout thanksgiving. Our country through
out its vast domain has been blessed with
abundant harvests of golden grain and lus-
bandman are bursting with their yellow
treasure. Our shops and mills, our fac
tories and stores, and all our great indus
tries have enjoyed a degree of prosperity
unprecedented in our Nations history. More
new homes have been built and more of
the comforts, and even many of the lux
ur1eS or nte, are enjoyed by the great
masses of the American people than ever
before.
Truly, God has been good to America,
blessed as no other nation with marvellous
and inexhaustible natural resources;
blessed with the spirit of industry, thrift
and enterprise, with the love of freedom,
justice and equality; blessed with abundant
schools and colleges, and churches. hospi-
tails, orphanages and other benevolent and
philanthropic institutions, almost without
number-surely God has not dealt so with
any other nation.
but dare we for a moment suppose that
He has thus dealt with without a great
purpose. a marvellous design? Nay, verify
but all history proves that through the ages
one increasing purpose runs, and of no ma
ton has this been so strikingly true and
apparent as in the history of our own be-
loved land. America, in a very special
sense, is a child of Providence. and God
means for her TO play a special part in the
worlds activities.
Not only to be first in political and COM
mercial supremacy, but also to be the ag-
gressive leader in the great work of in
structing. enlightening, evangelizing yea
of Outstanding the dark nations of the
earth: taking a foremost place In the
mighty onward march of the kingdom OF
| God and carrying the gospel light of truth
| and love and salvation wherever man Is
| found until all the nations of the earth be-
| come the kingdom of our Lord and of His
| Christ.

Nation, Mr. Baus said, was the work OF
God and his guidance of the country during
its darkest hours of trouble He said:
Shall we ascribe the success or our
great, grand and powerful nation TO our
wise statesmen. heroic generals or noble
rulers? They certainly have accomplished
great and wonderful things for our be-
loved country, and really deserve que
credit Yet, to my knowledge. every one
of our noblest and most successful leaders
has recognized God as the great power
back of all success, who endowed them
with sufficient strength and courage TO
accomplish what they did. Remember the
inspiring and noble words they left for us
to consider"
He said that in showing our grattuoe we
showed that we remembered the blessings
of God. That no other Christian duty is
more neglected than this, Mr.. Baus de-
clared to be a fact. He said: I'VE are SO
prone to overlook or forget our manifold
blessings, that we often do not realize how
much we have TO be thankful for"

this is no occasion for pessimism, but an
occasion especially designed for thanks,
giving and praise to Him from whom all
Whatever clouds may have Swallowed
our pathway, whatever evils wrought IN
our individual. social or national life, and
however deplored, we have occasion this
day for intense and abiding gratitude.
Nothing Is more fitting. and no sign more
hopeful, than this nation to-day on bended
while we do most reverently and de-
voutly thank God for a bountiful mar
vest of rich fruit and ripened grain, and
not falling either to calculate the proceeds
from our fiocks, our herds and our mines
(yet forgetting. If possible, for the time
the recent great coal strike), and keeping
before us the great and important matter OF
peace preserved, yet we feel quite sure
that the thanksgiving of this hour will be
deepened, and the future of all our lives
frightened, If we shall occupy the time
mainly In getting a better hold on the
principles underlying this national day, or
any other day or time set apart for like
holy purpose.
Mr.. Orcutt said the Thanksgiving of the
day was but the expression Of gratitude
OF the men of the earth to God for HIS
goodness to them. Gratitude Is a condi-
ton of heart induced from a sense of bless
ings," said Mr.. circuit.
Thanksgiving is an expression OF graf
itude. Gratitude is condition of heart
induced from sense of blessings re-
ceived. We feel our obligation to those
from whom our favors come. Hence,
thankfulnesS or gratitude both engenderS
and promotes a sense of responsibility.
And this sense of responsibility is the
motor power of duty. Not only does
thankfulness generate the idea of respon-
sibility, but through responsibility is de-
veloped depth and richness of character
Hence nobleness in manhood and woman
hood" he said.
Mr. circuit said the principles of thanks
giving when applied to man induced a
change in temperament. When man is
truly grateful for blessings he Is speedily
induced to earn them. In speaking of this
Mr.. circuit alluded to the mayor of Indi-
annapolis, and said:
Apply these principles to the individual
and a noble Christian character will be
| the result. Apply them to the family and
! peace and harmony will ever reign. Apply
them to the municipality, to the city of
| Indianapolis, and if Mayor Bookwalter
| does not experience the change of Won
| derful conversion before the next city
election, another man will thereafter draw
| the mayors salary.
Apply these principles to the affairs of
our national government and our President
will be at the head of nation whose God
is the Lord, in which nation or govern
| ment neither Doodle, politics nor saloon
anarchy will longer hold sway. We mean to
understand what we do, and TO do what

REMEMBERED ITS POOR.


The Salvation Army did not attempt 6

some of its poor with baskets OF provi-
sions. Staff Captain Atkins said the army

Der of beneficiaries. / have been twenty
three years in the army work and in all
my experience / have not found a COM
munity more sympathetic with our work
and more responsive to our needs than In

Captain Atkins said the canvassers for
the army will solicit generally anything
that would be beneficial for a charitable
purpose. The army receives clothing and
furniture. and has. since September dis
tributed over two thousand pieces of cloth
ing On Christmas morning it is the pur-
pose TO send out the armys three wagons
among the poor families and distribute the
dinners, which will be packed in baskets.
Captain Atkins is now receiving the names
OF worthy families and in making the bas-
kets up there will be as many portions OF
each article as there members in the
family. The names of over twenty fam
lilies have already been sent in.
