ed city. This is especially true of
the knocking done by its newspapers
in order to secure small quote Of the
land seekers who are coming to the
opening Of the reservation. While
the government recognized the fact
that Grand Forks had little or no
claim on the reservation by making
the filings at Devils Lake, this city
expected some registrations to be made
at Grand Forks, and while the busi.-
ness people made every legitimate
effort to secure the crowd, they did
net resort to the small methods used
| by the Grand Forks boomers, of mis-
represeI ting facts. This is what has
been done at Grand Forks. Not only
in the press Of that city, but in the
specials tu the twin city papers bear
ing Grand Forks dates are the most
unreasonable falsehoods One is that
this city is unable to provide hotel
accommodations for the crowds. No
thing could be farther from the truth
With the Chautauqua advantages,
this town can care for fifty thousand
people and do SO without grating and
1extortion. When the recent state
Republican convention assembled in
Grand Forks, with delegate attend

the hotels of that city were ove1taxed
and had to use as many as twenty cots
in one room, for which the liberal
charge was two dollars, and in one
instance this price was paid for the
privilege of sleeping on the floor.

in the city at that time, and that esti-
mate is twice what were really there,

who come to this city to register, will
not have to pay full rate car fare for
the trip to look over the land.
The railroad recognized the advan-
.ltages to the land seekers in coming di-
trect to Devils Lake, and SO advertised
the matter, and it seems this is what
stirred mp the petty jealousy Of our
Isister city.

Water Struck on MinidOka Tract.

D. w. Ross has returned from
Minidoka. He expected to meet
the engineer of the contractors who
are to build the headworks, but the
latter could not reach there in time.
Mr.. Ross states the engineers are
running out the canal lines and
principal laterals, and they find it
works out somewhat better than
they expected. They had antici-
pated little trouble at some points,
but the surveys avoid the bad spots.
They had an interesting exper-
fence in getting water. The sup
ply for the engineers has been
hauled three miles. To get sup
ply near the work they tried driv-
ing a we'll. When it was down
about 60 feet it seemed to have
some water in it, but there was no
supply. Others sought to drive
wells, and met with. the same ex-
derience. 1t was thought the screen
became clogged with heavy clay
through which the point was driv-
en-, but efforts to clear it by forcing
water down did not succeed.
Finally we'll was dug. 1t went
down through fine sand, then
through heavy clay. and finally into
sand and gravel in which a good
flow OF water was found. Wells
are now being driven deep, and an
abundance of water for the settlers
will no doubt be secured. When
the irrigation shall have been start
ed there will be water near the
surface, but in the meantime these
deep wells will supply the settlers.

Will Represent the Gem State.

Idaho will be we'll represented at
the National Irrigation congress
which will be convened at FL Paso,
Tex. November Is and remain in
session for three days.
The governor of each state in
which irrigation work is carried on
has the authority to appoint 10 del
egates to the convention; mayors
of cities having population of 25, :
OOO or more may appoint three
delegates, and mayors of cities with
a population of less than $4,000
may select two delegates. Dele
gates may also be named by presi-
dents of irrigation districts.
Governor Morrison has selected
the following delegates to represent
the state:
John w. Ayers, Weiser.
Frank Steunenberg, Caldwell.
Jess B. Hawley, Boise.
Fred R. Reed, Haley.
w. c. Howie, Mountainhome.
P. E. McCutcheon, Idaho Falls.
c. c. Moore, St. Anthony.
F. S. Dietrich, Pocatello.
James H. Stephenson, Boise.
I. B. Perrine, Blue Lakes.
AS Idaho is probably more deep
ly interested in irrigation than any
state in the Union at present, it is
hoped that all the delegates select
ed will find it convenient to attend
the congress. Projects representing
an outlay of millions of dollars are
now under way in this state and
those most concerned appreciate the
necessity of strong representa-
tion.
The convention at Ell Paso will
be the most important in the histo-
ry of irrigation. The government
reclamation service will have a
strong delegation present and much
is expected to result from the con-
gress. Statesman.

SUPPLIES FOR REFORM SCHOOL
Trustees Actively Engaged in Pre-.
pairing List Of Requirements.

The trustees of the Idaho Reform
school spent busy day yesterday
going over the plans and selecting
fittings, furnishings and equip
ments for the institution. The
routine work of the board was COM
pleted at noon and the delails were
placed i'll the hands of committee
consisting of Mrs. F. A. Pyke,
secretary of the board, Mrs. R. L.
Nourse and Miss May L. Scott.
This committee is working in con-
junction with Superintendent
Humphries on the laborious task
of determining what is necessary to
be purchased for the school at this
time.
AS the purchases to be made in
clude everything from needles to
anvils and draught horses to mat
tresses, the committee has MANY
problems to work out.
The complete list of articles re-
quired will be read on Wednesday
morning. Copies will be in the
hands of all members of the board
and the superintendent of the
school at St. Anthony. Those who
desire copies may obtain them by
writing to Mrs. F. A. Pyke, Du-
bois, or any member of the board.
The kind and quality of every
article from teacup to spade will
be plainly designated in order that
bidders will be spared the necessity
of making inquiries.
The bids will be opened on Oct
ober Is, when the board will hold
another meeting The trustees are
anxious to have all supplies as
nearly as possible in order that the
opening of the school may not be
delayed.
The preparation of the lists in
wolves an enormous amount of work
and the trustees are particularly an
xious that nothing necessary shall
be overlooked and nothing super
fluous obtained.
The suggestions of Superinten-
dent Humphries are proving inval-
liable to the board. The trustees
themselves had already gone to
the pains of posting themselves
upon the requirements of the insti-
tuition and their work has been
lightened considerably by the know
ledge previously obtained. The
members of the board are in thor
ough accord and perfect harmony
obtains.
The ground plan of the school
prepared by Architect ]. Flood
Walker has been carefully inspected
by the board. Upon recommended
ton of Superintendent Humphries
few minor changes in detail were
made. These changes affected the
walks and play grounds and will
not in any way alter the original
plan which is regarded as compact,
practical and artistic. The adop-
ton of this plan, which makes pro-
vision for every building to be
erected on the site hereafter, will
prevent confusion and insure har-
mony in the future. Statesman.

not living issue. 1t is dead be-
cause of the public sentiment in
that country, which has DESTROYED
it.
Now these Mormon people be-
lleve what no other people do, and
they are as sincere in that as they
are in their other beliefs. They
believe that the constitution of the
United States is a divine instru-
ment. They honestly and thor
oughly believe that it comes direct
from God. In the days they be-
lieved that under the constitution
the United States could not inter
fere with polygamy, holding to the
idea that polygamy was a part of
their religion. They contended
that the constitution, being a di-
vine instrument, and poiygamy be-
ing part of their religion it could
not be interfered with under our
constitution.
| may say that they fought
against anti-polygamy laws in. all
the courts, but when the Supreme
Court of the United States declared
that an anti-polygamy law was
constitutional, then came their
manifesto abandoning polygamy.
AS one of the representatives of
a state where the Mormons are one
fourth of the people, I join with
the senator from Utah, who is in
part a representative of state
where three-fourths are Mormons,
in saying that there is no polyga-
my, that is, new polygamy, in
these parts of the country, l doubt
if the gentlemen on the other side
are sincere in quibbling over this
proposition. If they are sincere,
let them put the test oath, or pro-
vide for it being put into the con-
stitution. No one wants to take it
out, but there is no occasion for its
enforcement. Should the occasion
arise its power wou Id be invoked.
Mr.. Beveridge-Will the senator
from New York permit me?
Mr.. Depew- Certainly.
Mr.. Notwithstanding the
proposition of the senator from Ida
ho, it is perhaps proper that |
should speak.
l have never questioned the sim
cerity of senator upon this floor,
and l never expect to do SO. If
the senator is anxious to have this
anti-polygamy clause put on this
bill or any bill that may be passed,
why does he ask a condition? Why
does he say Il am willing to pur-
chase the attachment of the state
hood bill by conceding an anti-pol-
ygany amendment?
Mr.. Dubois-Does the senator
wish me to answer him?
Mr.. Beveridge-Yes.
Mr.. Dubois-For the reason that
it is perfectly apparent to everyone
that so far as the senator from Ind
lana is concerned he will never
have vote on the statehood pro-
position; and simply took this
method of informing him that, in
my judgment, we will have a vote
on it upon an appropriation bill,
and anticipate it in advance, and
say that l am ready for this amend
ment. l AM NOT ANXIOUS
FOR THE AMENDMENT AND
DO NOT WANT IT, BECAUSE
1T is NOT NECESSARY.
POLYGAMY is DEAD AND
CANNOT BE MADE MORE

INCONSISTENCY OF DEMOCRACY.
Speech of Fred T. Dubois in the United States
Senate February 9Th, 1908.

LII debate in the United States
Senate. recorded in the Congress
slonal Record, beginning on page
l729 of February 5, 1908, only
little more than year ago, there
appeared the following bearing on
the polygamy question in Idaho:
Mr.. Hale-Then it must follow
from that, as the years go by and
as the older people disappear, poly
gamy as practice will be practic-
ally removed.
Mr.. Dubois-There is no ques-
tion about it; and I will say to the
senator owing to the active part
which we took in the fierce contest
in Idaho, 1, with others who had
made the fight, thought we were
justified in making this promise to
the Mormon people. We had no
authority of law, but we took it
upon ourselves to assure them that
those older men who were living in
the polygamous relation, who had
growing families which they had
reared and were rearing before the
manifesto was issued, and at time
when they thought they had right
under the constitution to enter the
polygamous relation-that those
older men and women and their
children should not be disturbed !;
that the polygamous man should
be allowed to support his numerous
wives and their children. The
polygamous relations, of course,
should not continue, but we would
not compel man to turn his fami-
lies adrift. We promised that the
older ones, who had contracted
those relations before the manifesto
was issued, would not be presented
by the Gentiles that time would be
given for them to'pass away. but that
the law would be strictly enforced
against any polygamous marriages
which might be contracted in the
future
Mr.. Hale-I can see the force of
that generous policy, which was
based upon the larger proposition,
that of getting rid of an undoubted
evil, having provided for its disap-
pea rance in the near fuure, for the
time you bear with the present con-
dition of those older parties. Un-
der this generous treatment I sup
pose those older persons in Idaho
did not cease the polygamous rela-
tions; they supported their wives
and their family relations were
maintained, but there was no new
taking on, and therefore in time
polygamy would disappear.
In another place reported in an
appendix to the Congressional
Record, appears the following from
Mr.. Dubois:
I say there is no polygamy, and
no one contended more vigorously
against this tenet and practice of
the Mormon church than myself.
1t was a fierce fight for years, and
in my feeble way l did all could
to suppress it, and this helped us
to do it.
1t is folly and waste of time for
Senators to undertake to demon
strate here now that polygamy is
live issue. 1t is dead, as the sena-
tor from Utah, (Mr. Rawlins) SO
we'll said, and he has spent his life
among these people, fighting them
hand to hand. If any have suffered
ON account of their activity in poll
tics, the senator from Utah is one of
them; but, as he says, polygamy is
