We believe that Idaho is better
represented in the United States
senate than any other state in
the Union. Borah is one of the
most brilliant men in the county,
and still he is but young in years.
Should he live the allotted three
score and ten we believe he will
be one of the great leaders of the
country. Hepburn is perhaps
the ablest lawyer in either branch
of congress, and is one of the
ablest debaters also. And then
both are clean, honest, fair mind
ed men, patriot in every sense of
the word. Idaho is very proud

The History Of Niagara,

DR.. ]. W. Spencer, who has made
specially of the study of the geologic
al history of the Niagara gorge and
falls, returned to this subject at the
July meeting Of the American associa.
ton. He believes that about $500
years ago the drainage of Lake Huron
was turned into Lake Erie, thus vast.
ly increasing the eroding power of
Niagara. 1t had taken $500 years
for the gorge to eat back from Lake
Ontario to the point where the falls
were situated when the Huron dis.
charge was added. Five hundred
years after that the falls reached the
whirlpool. Between 1000 and $500
years ago they were passing the site
of the whirlpool rapids. The RAPIDS
themselves were completed less than
800 years. ago.
