length by Rev. Father Michigan in St.

went about doing good and of the pleas

lieve She always took particular in

occasions gladdened the hearts of the
little ones of the various orphan asylums

Tribute by Senator Smoot.

Senator Smoot said, in part:
whenever the name Of Shoup is men,
toned in my hearing there arises at
once before me the figure of a man, tall
and straight as an arrow, a pioneer. a
statesman. Christian gentleman, whose
life was devoted to the building up of
this magnificent government of ours in
a form so grand and enduring as to
excite the wonder and challenge the ad-
miration of the civilized world. To him,
more than to any other. Idaho owes her
early admission to statehood To this
end he brought to bear his power as an
organizer, his ability as leader, his
logic as debater. his infiexibIe will, his
honest soul; and for this reason, among
others. his sculptured presence is placed
in yon pantheon of the republic to for
ever proclaim to the world the love,
respect and honor the great state of
Idaho has for one of her noble citizens:
Like nearly all our great historical
characters, Shoup was a self-made man.
He was not born with silver spoon in
his mouth. nor reared in the lap of lux
ury; but had to combat with the diff
culties of life, overcoming them one by
one until success could he called his.
What he won came to him because of his
own persistency and ability, by dint of
struggle and toll.
'Shoup looked at every problem from
eiie NiCNlIo W the COMMON people, Ilc
spranS from them-Was one OF them. His
associations. until full manhood. were eN-
cllislvely with the working classes His
labors in this body fully justify me in
saying that he believed profoundly in the
plain people, but never descended to the
denagogue in order 10 show it. He had
the sincerity and simplicity of nature. He
was not an orator. in the generally ac-
copied meaning of that word, but his ora
tory was of that purer type used by great
and good men in all ages of the world, for
III speaking he told the truth at the APP
nrcp.iate time and believed what he said

became convinced.

OF the man. sucl being his generosity and
his devotion, such his personification Of
all that was best and noble, most patriotic
and most inscifish. and most characters

that the state Of Idaho should select him

Pleasant Associations.

MANY of the senators present today
served in this chamber with Senator
Shoup. and without exception all retain
pleasant recoilections of association with
him, and his memory is revercnced here.
It required intimate association and close
observation to discover the clements of
power in the character of the man. for
although he was thoroughly representa-
tive Of the west. his demcanor and adj
dress in no wise comported with the
widespread and erroneous notion thai
this type of man should be loud bois-
ferrous, self-aSSertive and dOmineering.
George L. Shoup did not respond to any
of these characteristics. He was unob-
trusfve, gentle, considerate and kind. His
voice was low and rarely elevated above
the ordinary conversational tone. He
was honest firm, direct, courageous and
brave, but these points in his character
were made manifest by actions rather
than by proclamations
Devotion to duty was with him rul-
ing passion and he met every obligation
fairly and sincerely. Although very posi-
tive in his own views. he was tolerant OF
the views of others. He was what might
be called a liberal-minded man.
He proved equal to every task as
signed him, and fairly met and dis
charged every duty that fell to his lot.
He loved his fellow-man. and those who
Addresses by Others.
Senator Warren, who. like the late
Senator Shoup, was the last territorial
and the first state governor and one Of
the first United States senators from his
state, also paid a tribute to his late
colleague

love of adventure and the valor of the
one; the sturdy character and infleSible
purpose of the other, California and Ore

California lured the emigrant into the

removed in distance from the states. ex-
