Lincoln's Masterpiece.

The speech of Abraham Lincoln at
the dedication Of the Gettysburg Sol
diers' cemetery, has for terseness and
beauty of expression, never been
equalled, The London Timse said of
it: "Christ's Sermon on the Mount
is the only discourse tht compares
with 1t"
Here 1t is, and every text book in
the public schools should contain It:
Gettysburg, Nov. 10, '63.
-Four score and seven years ago
our fathers brought forth upon this
continent new nation, conceived in
liberty and dedicated to the propo-
sition that all men are created equal.
Now we are engaged In great civil
war, testing whether that nation, or
any nation 80 conceived and so dedi-
Gated can long endure. We are met
on a great battlefield OF that war.
We have come to dedicate a portion
of that field as q final resting place
for those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live. It ID

HALF MILLION
TREES IN TOWN

1t is not generally known that
Blackfoot, in addition to having trees
enough to hide the town, has the
largest nursery in the state at the
edge of town, but this is the case.
Over half a million trees and cut
tings are fourishing in the Bingham
County Nursery, owned by w. A.
.Younie, just south of the Irving
school below the "Y.'
Mr.. Younie just moved out to live
on the property few months ago,
and has built a barn 20x60, and is
preparing to put up brick house
30x32 with a kitchen 12x20 added.
Also a packing house for nursery
stock that will eclipse anything in
the state.
In addition to the older part Of
the nursery, Mr.. Younie has put out
% acres of orchard land that he had
graded and otherwise prepared last
year. In this are 1850 apple trees,
and while he is cultivating between
the rows he is raising 5000 gooseber-
ry cuttings, $4,000 currants, 5000
black cap raspberry, $4,000 Marl-
boro raspberry from Loveland, Col,
and 100000 of bud stock of many
varieties. He has expended about
$4,000 on this little tract of %
acres, and it looks as neat as a new
pin.
Across the road from it are some
other items, among which may be
mentioned $4,000 apple gratis, and
this alone marks Mr.. Younie as the
biggest CRATER in the community. 1t
is one of the things in the graft line
that the CRATER is willing the pub
lie should know all about, and the
more they know and think of 1t, the
more it will benefit the CRATER and
the public.
Sixty thousand yearling apple
trees standing forty inches high and
in rows as straight as a dart are sug-
gestive of red apples and mugs of
cider in many homes when they get
to bearing. Eighty thousand cut
tings of Carolina Poplars, 5000
black locusts and 5000 box elders
will shade somebody and their
friends, and 1000 dewberry, $4,000
of pear stock and $1,000 of plum
stock flourish in the sections near
them.
All these new members of society
are worth going to look at and the
machinery for handling them is worth
inspection too. There was time
when nurseryman had to dig
trenches by hand or plant in burrows
and cover by hand, but now there
are planters for potatoes and plant
ers for nursery stock, and he sits
on a sulky and drives team while
the machines do the most of the
work. He has tree digger too that
digs up the trees while the man
drives the horses.
When you go out for drive, Just
go down past Studebakers' and Ken
nedy's. and take look at this new
and up-to-date nursery in the edge OF
town. 1t will be one of the attrac-
tions for visitors at the fair this fall
The Idaho Republican. [volume] (Blackfoot, Idaho) 1904-1932, 1908-05-29

should do this. But In larger sense
we cannot dedicate, we cannot con-
secrate, we cannot hallow this
ground. The brave men, living and
dead, who struggled here, have con-
secrated it far above our power to
add or detract. The world will lit
tie note, nor long remember what
we say here, but 1t can never forget
what they did here. 1t is for US, the
living, rather to be dedicated here to
the unfinished work which they who
fought here have thus far 80 nobly
advanced. 1t Is rather for us to be
here dedicated to the great task re-
naming before US, that from these
honored dead we my take increased
devotion to that cause to which they
gave the last full measure Of devo-
tion; that we here highly resolve that
these dead shall not have died In
vain; that this nation under God,
shall have new birth Of freedom.
and that government Of the people,
by the people. and for the people,
shall not perish from the earth"

SULLI-
VAN ARRESTED

Statesman: Justice !. N. Sullivan
OF the supreme court of Idaho was
arrested Friday evening by officer
Marion of the city police force and
taken TO the police station where a
charge of battery was placed against
him. He was released on his own
recognizance to appear in municipal
court.
The arrest of Justice Sullivan was
made after he had struck w. f. Dol
an, a Main street merchant, in the
face with his cane, causing injuries
which necessitated Mr.. Dolan getting
his nose bandaged.
Justice Sullivan and wife and son
We're walking past Mr.. Dolan's place
| OF business when the latter's dog ran
out of the door and almost knocked
| Mrs. Sullivan over. 1t Is alleged the
younger. Sullivan kicked the dog and
| that Mr.. Dolan came out of the store
and slapped the hoy.
Mr.. Sullivan went on up the street
and the incident was little noticed.
Soon Justice Sullivan returned and as
Officer Marion entered Mr.. Dolan's
store to talk with the proprietor on
| business, Justice Sullivan followed
him and asked him to put Mr.. Dolan
under arrest, stating that he had
struck his son.
Look here, Judge Sullivan" said
Mr.. Dolan, don't you come in my
place of business and abuse me; go
out there on the sidewalk"
Whereupon 1t is alleged Judge Sui
livan struck Mr.. Dolan with his cane.
Officer Marion promptly arrested the
Judge and took him to the police sta
tion. At headquarters there were j.
HI. Hawley and several other promi-
nent Democrats who had been at
tending the political caucus, and,
when they saw the officer and the
Judge enter Mr.. Hawley remarked
jokingly that he would go the judges
bail, not knowing that he had been
arrested.
Later.
The case against Justice |. N. Sui
livan of the supreme court OF Idaho,
charged with assault, for which he
was arrested Friday evening by Off
Ger Marion when the Judge struck
w. F. Dolan in the fact with his cane
in Mr.. Dolan's place of business on
Main street, was dismissed in muni-
cipal court yesterday morning and
the accused released because Mr.. Dol
an absolutely refused to prosecute
his assailant. 1t was on his request
that the case was dismissed
When seen yesterday Mr.. Dolan
told different story than that pub
lished in this paper yesterday morn
ing concerning the part his dog play
ed in the trouble. He said that his
dog followed the Sullivan dog when
it came along with Justice and Mrs.
Sullivan and their son Will and that
the latter, who Is practicing attor-
ney In Boise, kicked the animal,
which, Mr.. Dolan says. did not run
out of his store and did not go near
enough to Mrs. Sullivan to bother
her
IT was thoroughly mad" said Mr..
Dolan, land when he kicked my dog
when it was doing nothing out of the
way struck him with my fist In the
neck. The impression has gone out
that had struck small boy and II
had, Judge Sullivan would have
had right to strike me with his
cane. But VIII Sullivan is not boy.
He Is a bigger man than ] am, al
though he or anyone else Is not so
big that he can kick my dog without
hearing from me-"

FAIR
IS PLANNED

Ten directors of the Idaho Inter-
mountain Fair association met with
President James A. Pinney last eve
ming at the Office in the old fire sta
ton building and worked out plans
that will mean greater fair this
fall than ever before. 1t was an en-
thusiastic meeting of the directors.
Everybody felt liberal and plans were
made to spend more money than ever
before to make the Idaho state fair
the best in this part of the country.
At the suggestion of Mr.. Martin
the board decided to hold a ten-days'
racing meet but just one week of fair.
Messrs. Walker, Martin and Dolan
are the committee on racing and they
say they have been working and will
continue to work for better meet
than ever. 1t is the intention OF the
committee to have a $1,000 derby
during the ten days.
There are many horses on the
coast this year that did not go east
as is the usual custom, and with
summer meet at Butte and a fall
meeting at Denver, 1t is believed
there will easily be $50 horses here
to make the racing program live
ly one.
A very liberal harness race pro-
gram has been arranged. In 1t are
scheduled the early closing racing
events for which entries close June

Methodist church. The floral tributes,
especially the ones from Forum attaches

A great many kilograms of coincidence

The remains were tenderly placed at
