| The Diamond Jubilee has passed
into history as have the events and
characters 1t was intended to com.
memorate. To the thoughtless it was
merely a passing show, a present gra-
LITIGATION of the senses, the Willing
away of few idle hours, soon to be
forgotten in the hum drum of our
daily tasks. But to the more thought
| full who imbibed, not Of the elixir
that in toxicates, but of the spirit OF
the occasion, who followed with in
! terested attention Governor Brady's
delineation of noteworthy and dra-
matte events in the early history of
Idaho and the Northwest, OF the phe-
nomenal development of our state
and her magnificent promise OF future
greatness, to those who see the sig
nificance of the seething activity that
is today converting our sage brush
wastes and desert Wilds into verti-
able empires OF opportunity, and peo-
ping our commonwealth with a pro-
gressive and energetic class of men
and women that will make Idaho
loom large in the future history of
our country, to all who take a pride
in the splendid destiny awaiting the
Gem of the Mountains with its mex
haustible resources only beginning to
be developed, to all thoughtful citi-
zens and true boosters the occasion
represented more than merely Gull
ing out holiday"
To those who wish to carry the
spirit Of the occasion away with them
and to perpetuate it throughout the
years OF come, the series of stereo-
grahps which this booklet accom-
panies will afford a vivid and realistic
means of doing So They will supply
the scenes and the settings and even
the orators. The text will supply the
oratory
The Old West is passing away. In
a few. years the old landmarks will
be lost in the midst of highly de-
veloped civilization. The stage coach
and the freighters' outfit are rapidly
being replaced by the railroad. The
Indian with his tepee Is being crowd
ed into closer quarters and confined
to smaller and smaller areas and as
a race are rapidly passing away. In
our set of stereographs he is pictured
In the stately calm and sedate solem-
nifty of repose, and in the excited
frenzy Of his war dance. We see him
wearing his war bonnet and eagle
feathers and native finery and we see
him in the motley, unpicturesque,
semi-civilized garb of every day,
clinging to the wreckage of savagery
with one hand and cropping blindly
and unwillingly toward civilization
with the other because he has to.
The vivid realism of the solid sun
sculpture Of the stereograph gives an
of reality that almost
cheats the senses. 1t has charmed
and delighted millions and will al
