The Idaho scimitar. [volume] (Boise, Idaho) 1907-1908, 1907-11-09

Y. W. c. A. will grow to wonderful proportions
from modest beginning if properly managed. The
Scimitar has in mind the growth of such an nst-
tuition in one of the cities of the Middle West Less
than ten years ago this institution was opened in
two rooms in the business center of the city and it
began its useful career under the most nauspcious
circumstances. But the noble women who were at
the helm in earnest their hearts were in the
work and they could not fall SO that today the in
stitution is of the foremost in the country
From the original two rooms-one of which was a
lunch room and the other reading and rest room
every department of modern Y w. C. A. has de-
veoped, each contributing its full share to the won
derful success of the institution There are reading
and writing rooms finely equipped for their pur-
pose, extensive library, lunch ROOM where bust
may at the noon hour and be
assured of pleasant associations, great gymnasium
and baths convenient quarters for officers and a
comfortable rest room An educational department
is provided in which there are both day and night
courses, covering wide range of subjects, includ-
ing practical dressmaking, language literature mu-
sic and Bible study of non-sectaran nature And
everywhere throughout this magnificent institution
the atmosphere is of encouragement to better
living, of culture and refinement
There hundreds of such institutions as the one
just described in the United States today although
all of them not Y. w. c. AS but there is press
ing need of hundreds From all over the
country comes the demand for them. Chicago has
seventeen of these homes for the working girl with
room for 900 members, yet Chicago is loud in its
demands for more In that great city the immense
benefit of such homes has been felt and with char
acerstic energy it has set about to supply the de-
mand for them. Idaho and the Northwest should
profit by Chicago's experience.
Help the girls to better things, and they will help
the world ten-fold.

Forests Vanishing.

Hon. Clifford Pinchot, Forester for the United
States Government, sounds another warning. He
has just returned to Washington from a tour last
ing six months and covering ten thousand miles
He says that in twenty years the timber supply
of the United States, on Government reserves and
private holdings, at the present of cutting, will
growth during that period might extend the arrival
of this time another five years.
In sounding his warning Mr. Pnchot urged that
the danger of the situation should not be under
estimated He said that the United States uses
timber per capita than does any other country
and that every man, woman and child would be
affected. He denounced the policy of dscountng
the future of the country by failure protect nat
ural resources, and he advised each one who has
not already done so to read President Roosevelts
speech this general subject
The Forest Service will ask Congress for more
money and more men in order to extend the SER
vice and will push the work of reforesting timber
lands Mr.. Pinchot says, however, that it is utterly
beyond the possibility of the service to meet the
situation and prevent serious trouble. One hope en-
tertained is the Appalachian forest, and an effort
will be made to protect this and promote growth
there. A scheme will be advocated that will be
watched with q great deal of interest 1t is to
give power to State Forestry Departments to pro-
tect watersheds and prevent private owners from
devastating these lands in such manner as will
injure lands below If this plan works we'll the

foot one fine summer evening when nothing par
ticular was DOING out of the ordinary As usual
2 few confortablv-clad smooth handed gentlemen
of the green cloth sat about the gaming tables dis
cussing experiences and waiting for the usual even
ING game to Begin at the Rock Saloon. In front
on the edge Of the sidewalk, sat bunch of cow
boys fresh from the range, with their broad-brmmed
hats, their leather wrsters, and their hgh-heeled
boots betraying their distinctive vocation; while
about the place the usual crowd of oafers and
retired citizens of the burg who known to all
in those days as "the hangers-on"
AS the train slowed down, wag emerged from
the blind baggage" ran across the way and en-
tered the Rock Saloon. Amid the above setting
he at once became the center of attraction partly
from his graceful stride and partly from the per-
petual smile which adorned his countenance
AS he entered the building he uttered a me1odious
yell, which at once brought all the patrons of the
place about him in wonderment as to what was
going to happen.
With easy motion and attractive grace the Wis
itor turned handspring, forward then backward,
then "wagon-wheel," talking all the time about
the 'fun we will all have here tonight"
Bringing his first exhibition to a sudden close
he cast a thirsty glance at the ready barkeeper
which was Immediately good for one drink It was
with evident relish The effects immediately
made all the muscles agile and the tongue of
the rogue more ready. A second stunt followed
after which he removed his SLOUGH hat and passed it
about for contribution The response was pentous
as it always was in those good old days; dollars
halves anyway, being the smallest donations, and
the attention of the donors being constantly called
to the evenings show of tricks which he would
perform His initial collection netted him fourteen
dollars.
Then he repeated his performance which was
really very good, and Immediately invested short
bit OF his contributions in second drink; proceed
ing at to repass the hat resulting as the bows
atterward figured good-natured1y among them
selves, to a swollen treasury Of in ALL TWENTY-FIVE
dollars and fifty cents
The wag then hurriedy invested one more short
bit IN the fluid of the Rock Saloon, backed toward
the door as If to repeat his performance; when
the bell rang from the train still standing on the

COmmiseratiOn of Victims.

COmmiseratiOn of Victims.
1t is great misfortune that SO many of the people
of Idaho insist upon depriving themselves of their
most valued civil rights But the Constitution is
rigid and the sentimentality of the Nation is intense
Thus Mormons who prefer the government which
is instituted by their church to the civil government
of the State, have made their own choice and must
abide the consequences. 1t is doubly unfortunate
for the reason that the majority of them would be
hrst-class people if they were not connected with
and subservient the criminal leaders of criminal
organization Every humanitarian must feel a strong
sense of commseration for these unfortunates i'm
mersed in wretched fate of practical expatriation.
They have been taught to their prophets as
the gvers of their liberty; instead of having been
led to offer gratitude and reverence to the institu
tons founded by the fathers of the republic and
established by generations of selfsacrcng patriots.
And when it comes to the issue their prophets
not protect them This has been proved in the past
In the old territorial days of Idaho the Mormons
followed their prophets and lost their franchise In
these days the Mormons are following their
prophets and the Nation is aroused to a sense of
the mighty contest in which it must engage; for
the prophets have set up a government which they
fagrantly call the kingdom of God, ruling its sub
jects with iron hand and demanding from them
their religious and political devotion to the exclu
sion and wrong of Nation and State.
The consideration extended to these devotees of
the Mormon church government in the past proves
to have been generosity misunderstood and mercy
abused. After all their solemn oaths and ob1iga-
tions Of fealty to civil governments made in their
hour of despair they ruhlessy cast everything aside
to follow with supersttous zeal the chief criminals
of the times AS they shall suffer under the aroused
determination of the Nation to cleanse the platter
they will receive even though they do not deserve
pity. But they shall be forced to abide by the
same laws under which the rest of the American
citizenship exists, they will matter what the con-
sequence to themselves have no righteous quarrel
with justice
1t is strange that after all their experiences thew
insist upon heedlessly provoking the grim deter
ninaton of repressive law. Controversy after con-
roversy have they had with the civil authorities.
Never at peace with the rest of the citizenship of
he State or Nation, they have dehed civil govern
nent in order to obey their church government and
lave always been defeated and been compelled TO
lead for mercy. The mercy has been granted. onlv
o be abused
In Idaho there is for misunderstanding
# the plain issue involved The Mormons here
refer the criminal polygamous government of their
hurch to the civil government under which they
re protected in their rights and liberties; and
,hlle one may commiserate their ignorance and
anacticsm, the safety of society demands adher
nee to the law and the Constitution

King of Tramps." which comes to the
Opera House tomorrow (Tuesday)

title. Instead, we are to meet a sun
ny JIM" always going out of his way
to spread happiness, always singing
and carrying a light heart, a character
that good sensible people can view
from in front with a feeling of inter
est. A capable company of farciers,
singers and dancers surround the
principal characters, and patrons are
assured of a performance well worth
seeing. 1.-THE King of Tramps," a
Yankee Doodle comedy, in four big
laughing acts, contains more actual
wit. more innocent mischief, more
admirable acting and good singing and
dancing than is to be found in any ten
