their graves and voice a prayer Of
thankfulness that our lives have been
spared to enjoy the fruitage of their
toll and sacrifice.
Let us not forget those who rest
beneath the daisy-spangled sod. in
graves marked unknown" and who
made the greater sacrifice Of giving
not only their life but their name for
their country.
Strew flowers upon the waters In
tribute to those Of our comrades who
sleep peacefully in the gardens of the
sea. This is not a day OF mourning,
II is the day OF our dead. day to re-
member with loving tributes those
who have gone before. day set apart
for strewing graves with flowers. 1t
is now as at the beginning observed
in honor Of the soldiers who died for
their country, but has broadened into
a more general use and significance.
Our dead comrades lose nothing by
sharing memorial day with all those
who weep for loved ones. This beau
tiful custom. though born Of war,
abides witk us in peace.
Therefore we extend a cordial invi-

of labor is not in question, and
have nothing to do with the pas
sage of this bill.
But why should the unsupported
statements Of a single member of
the Idaho legislature arouse such
indignation from the labor unions?
Does the idea generally prevail
that the Iaborer is a dissipated, dis
soIute creature7 If this is not the
general idea, then anything in his
defense is needless, in fact, super
fuous; if it is the general idea, then
there must be some basis for this
belief, and it can not be eradicated
by the mere passage of resolutions.
1t must be wiped out by the labor
ing men SO conducting themselves
that their lives will quickly give
the lie to all slanderous assertions.
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1903-02-28

THE LABOR unions of the State
are going after Representative Ow-
ems of Bingham county with a
sharp prod for his recent utter
ances derogatoty to labor in gener-
al. They repudiate the assertion
that the laboring men frequent sa-
looms, and that the granting of
shorter hours of labor would in
crease dissipation. While it is a
fact that not a few laborers fire.
quent saloons and some have disso-
lutte habits yet we believe that the
average laborer is no more given to
dissipation than are those in the
other walks of life. And by far
the greater part of them live moral,
upright lives, lives above reproach,
and, when they have them, spend
most of their time with their fami-
lies. But it is no argument against
the S-hour bill, should all the Ia
borers be dissipated. The morals

WE understand that a majority
of the City Council at this place ia
vor the initiative and referendum;
that number of the ladies of Cald-
well are anxious for city aid for the
free reading room. Then, what's
the matter with the women petit
tioning the City Council to submit
to a vote of the people the question
whether or no the city should es-
tablish library and free reading
room and levy a tax for the sup
port ana maintenance of the same.
This can be done, we think, with
out any, extra cost to the city at
the coming city election. If the
people want library and free
reading room, and are willing to be
taxed for it, they ought to have
one. Why not get at the real sem
timent of the people?
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1903-02-28

A BILL has been introduced into
the Legislature to permit the read
ing of the Bible in the public
schools. We understand that this
bill has the endorsement of all the
Sunday school societies of the State,
and that they are back of the bill.
We hardly think the bill will pass.
However, if the bill does pass, and
the Bible is generally taught in the
public schools, we think it will do
the cause of religion and the Bible
little good, and may do them a
positive injury.
