war with England. 1t took a long
time for the country to settle down
after that war and so it happened
that nothing but a little headstone
marked the grave when Lafayette
revisited this country in 1926. La
fayette had known Mrs. Washington.
To him is given the credit of call
ing her a Roman matron. Some of
the prettiest observations on the
character of this woman were writ
ten by Lafayette.
After the surrender Of Cornwall
lis at Yorktown the citizens Of
Fredericksburg gave a great ball to
Washington and a number of Ameri-
can and French officers. Lafayette
was there. Mrs. Washington, though
an old woman and not much inter-
ested in festive things, was after
long persuasion induced to attend
the ball, called then and noted long
after as "the peace ball."

CITIZENS TO HAVE
SUMMER HOMES
Many Will Probably Build Beautiful
Cottages on Echo Bay in the
Near Future.

1t truly seems as though the citiz-
ems of this city have never appreciat-
ed their almost unsurpassed opportu-
nifty to make this city a mecca for
summer tourists and in addition buy
beautiful cottage sites themselves In
close proximity to the city instead of
allowing them all to practically slip
from under their very faces into own
ership of non-residents. Surely this
city should be abundantly represented
with summer homes across the lake
but it seems that it is not so and
that sites are not now available at
ground level prices and it is to meet
these really deplorable conditions

has plated forty eight lots beautifully
situated on the north side of Echo
Bay These lots simply offer a chance
to local citizens to still buy CLOSE
in" summer cottage sites and in ad-
dition to their proximity to the city
that is already causing a rapid sale
of them is the fact that a large spring
is so situated near the tracts that
excellent water can be easily piped
at a very small expense to each lot
These lots are nicely situated along
the shore and will make excellent
cottage sites.

favor strengthening the present local
option law by Incorporating those
provisions which have been found
necessary to make enforceable liquor
laws in other states. The principle
of local option has been enacted into
law, but the legislature has failed to
provide proper machinery for the
economical and effective enforcement
of that law, and until this is done
local option cannot be given a fair
trial. If | become a member OF the
legislature | shall work for the
enactment of such amendments to
the present local option law as will
make It capable of enforcement at a
reasonable expense.
Among other legislation greatly
needed in Idaho is a law providing
for the establishment of a state re-
formatory In which youthful offend
ers against the criminal laws OF the
state may be incarcerated. 1t is the
shame and disgrace of the state that
