never failed to attend the circus when
II came his way, and when he attended
the circus he did not pass by any OF
the side shows,
Washington was a temperate man
He was a moral man. The charges OF
immortality that have been made
against him have been found, when
carefully investigated, to have been
without foundation. He believed In
human rights and he WAS opposed as
a matter of expediency to the institu-
ton OF slavery.
WAS NOT AN IMPOSsIBILIrY.
Such was George Washington. not
an impossibility, but a man with warm
blood and with human impulses. A
rnan who suffered from the frailtics
that affect humanity but who In hts
personal and public character was SO
great that he towers above the INTEL
lectual giants OF his country. Even
his personal enemies bore evidence Of
HIS honesty Jefferson said; his IN
tegrity was most pure. his Justice tho
most inhexible ! ever saw No motive
OF interest, consanguinity, friendship
or hatred were able TO bias his de-
cision. lie was indeed in every sense
man" And this judgment Of Jefferson
Is the verdict of history
The absolute greatness OF George
Washington In all things that elevate
n man above his fellows becomes more
apparent rs the years pass on and
we realize the fruition Of his efforts.
Men may come and men may pass
into oblivion--men may forge to the
front and scale the heights OF tame
and populerity--men may make vast
sacrifices for humanity and may lead
tho people through the trials which
the future win bring, but first and
foremost as the leader OF leaders and
the patriot OF patriots will stand
George Washington, whose sword hew-
ed the way for liberty. We cannot
too often recall his name, and we
ought to impress upon the minds OF
our children the fact that his fame
rests upon the merit of his unselflsh
patriotism, his innexihle integrity and
his unlinching regard for the demands
of duty.
The nation for which ne made
great sacrifices Is growing apace. It's
flag floats In the frozen air Of the arc
tic circle and II Is caressed by the CO.
quettish zephyrs Of the land Of sun
shine. And with the expansion of it's
borders there is devolyed upon our
citizens responsibilities most heavy,
entalling the solution ~ questions Of
the gravest import. From the life OF
Washington we can gather inspiration.
From the lofty example which he set
we can learn the lesson which when
living he wrote into the history Of our
country. Therefore, as we pay our
tribute to his great fame, let us pledge
eternal fidelity to the principles OF
liberty which he hammered into our
laws upon the anvil Of war

ing the whole of his life, had a soft
heart for women, and especially for the
good looking ones. and both in his per-
sOnal intercourse and IN his letters, he
shows himself very much more at ease
with them than in his relations with
his own sex. 4,
As might have been expected, Wash
lngton became an excellent husband.
His married life was pleasant His
wife seems to have been adapted 10
him, and although It is related that
"she was over fond, obstinate and a
poor speler." and although Washing
ton had to labor with her for four years
before he could get her consent TO be
vacCinated, she was a companion to
Washington, aided him In his career
and encouraged him during the dark
days of the Revolution.
Like many other men, Washington
was extremely fond OF dancing. II
may surprise you TO know that the se-
date Father OF his Country could and
did trip the light fantastic toe with
uncton nevertheless until he reached
an advanced age he never failed to at
tend a bali and was generous sup
porter OF the dancing assemblies.
Cen Washington was a good dresser,
a habit that some other great men have
been charged with He was fond OF
cards and billiards, and he was
patron OF the theater Washington

Az the servant of the colonies and as
duty to the struggling people, and he
laid aside the insignia of power, In the

The public positions that he held add
nothing TO his fame. II Is the simple
grandeur OF the man who never knew
how great he was. that makes II clear
that so long as the earth is peopled the
lesson that he taught will not be lost.
EDUCATION NOT EXTENSIVE.
II seems to be the effort of every
race to believe their great men to
have been supor-human. The faults
and foibles that made them men and
mat divide them from the angels are
CLOSED over and In time completely
obliterated. Their characters are
made to appear as clear as crystal.
Their lives as they are sketched are
impossible. Instead of being painted
as men, they are painted as demi-
gods. They are canonized and strip
ped of human characteristics They
are made to strut through life with
bearing so lofty. with mein so grave,
with attributes so mighty. that they
seem not to be OF earte earthly. One

into century and more. 1t stands out
from among the patriots and states
men who are revered by 100000 900 peo-
pie as the one grand example for the
lovers of liberty and human rights.
The deeds that made his life Illus
trious, the virtues that marked him as
one far above his fellows. the simplic-
ity and purity of character that identi-
fed him as one OF Gods immortals
are burned into the hearts of the peo-
pie. They are an inspiration wherever
men are striving to reach that higher
state that shall come with perfect man
hood.
The most striking and most admir-
able characteristic OF Washington was
his absolute simplicity of character
Fame to him was an incident. Pub
lie preferment he desired as means
TO serve the people. Rank and station
was the opportunity to advance the
cause OF human liberty, The sword
was not the emblem of power. 1t was
the means at hand to cleave the way to
freedom. He assumed the head of our

WILL BUY MOUNTAIN GEM.
Open River Transportation Associa-
ton to Operate River Boat.

Lewiston, Aug. 3.-If present plans
become the owner of the steamer
Mountain Gem purchasing it outright
from the present owners, the Lewis
ton Navigation company.
Some months ago there was a prop
osition on the part of the navigation
company for such a disposal of the
boat, but the company's proposition
did not go through. Now there is a
counter proposition from the Open
River association which it is said is in
the hands of Secretary Howard of
the Navigation company and which
will meet with the approval of the
company when quorum of the board
of directors can be had,
The proposition In the main is that
cash viii be paid to lift the present
Indebtedness on the boat and stock
given in the Open River association
for the balance. The cash needed is
something like s15,50O. This will lift
the mortgage and other incidental in
debtedness and clear the boat from
the litigation that for months has
threatened its action.
The Mountain Gem was built at
Lewiston and is owned by Lewiston
capitalists. 1t is understood that lis
soon as quorum of the directors can
be gotten together that the proposition
VIII be passed on favorably. The
steamer is now operating on the Co.
iumbia between Ainsworth and Ce-
lilo, under contract with C. F. Allen.
