For Fire Protection

How helpless is the resident of the country district

sructon of property is almost certain especially in the
open country where the wind gets in it's work There is
better way to prevent this destruction than by the in
stalation of Leader Water Pressure System. The in
surance companies make lower rate property thus
protected and the reduction will often pay for the whole
plant in few years. besides the comfort and conven
ience of it's continued use.

HERE A HUNDRED YEARS AGO

1t is not quite one hundred years
since the first white men were at the
present site of Idaho Falls. Idaho.
and the time is approaching when
that hustling little city might hold a
notable centennial anniversary If
they care to celebrate the event of the
very first men in their town.
1t was in November 1911 that the
Astor overland expedition built boats
at Fl Henry in Island Park and float
ed down the North Fork landing at
St. Anthony, Idaho Falls and Ameri-
can Falls on their way down the river
to where their course was marked
by swift rushing channels, roaring
rapids and cataracts of appalling
grandeur.
A fur trader named Henry estab-
lished fort in Island Park in 1910
but abandoned it in the spring of
1911. This expedition passed that way
in the fall and left their horses, TAX
ing to the river in boats which they
built. There is nothing to Indicate
that the party landed at Blackfoot,
so we can afford to be generous and
wait for one of these neighboring
towns to claim the hundredeth an
niversary of the first attention paid
to their city lots.

Nj. |. CHURCH DISMISSED

The investigation of the alleged
graft of M. |. Church in connection
with his work as register of the state
land board was finished last Saturday
it appearing that Mr.. Church had con-
templated resigning to practice law
in connection with Carey projects,
and was making arrangements to Sc
cure such employment that he might
step into when his resignation took
effect These negotiations have COW
cred a period of some months, and it
seems he has become interested in at
least one task of promoting a sale
by which he was to receive a commits
sion. The interests of the state do
not seem to have been jeopardized by
this act, but on the other hand it is
claimed that it brought embarras-
ments to certain extent to persons
interested in the deal,
After hearing all the evidence
which could be obtained by asking
people to appear before the board, the
power Of subpoening not resting with
the land board nor the governor, the
members of the board voted unani-
mously to accept the resignation of
Mr.. Church with censure for his
acts in which he became personally
interested in projects by reason Of
the opportunit his position afforded

1t is said that the writings of Mark
Twain brought him fortune of ST.
900, 900, despite the fact the author
had suffered many heavy reverses. 1t
is explained that approximately 81
600, 900 of Mark Twains books have
been published in America alone,
while they were translated and pub
lished in numerous foreign lang
uages. Even at this time, it is said,
the works of Mark Twain sell more
rapidly than those of any other au-
thor, living or dead.
1t is also said that Mr.. Clemens re-
ceived more per word for his short
stories and higher royalties on his
books than any author of recent
times. His income in recent years
was enormous and it is believed most
of it was invested profitably.
Mr.. Clemens left unpublished sew
eral manuscripts besides that of his
unfinished biography. These, which
are in the hands of few close
friends, publishers, and editors, had
not been offered for publication. To-
gether with several scraps and pieces
of unfinished material the author had
given these manuscripts over into the
hands of these literary executors to
be disposed of after his death as
they saw fit.

EDITOR URGES CLEANLINESS
Major Hemphill Decries Tendency Of
Press to Make Money at Expense
of Public's Ideas
Western PuhliSher-

Western Publisher
Mai. J. G.. Hemphill, owner and edi-
tor of the Richmond Times-Dispatch,
made "a plea for cleaner journalism
and cleaner newspapers in an address
at Yale university the other night. He
was delivering the first lecture under
the Bromley foundation, provided for
by Mrs. Adelaide e. Bromley in men,
DRY of her husband, Isaac M. Bromley
Yale '53. The subject of his lecture
was THE Public and the Press
"The press in these times said
Major Hemphill, speaking generally,
is in the business for the money there
is in it. The most potent force in
shaping and directing the thought
and sentiment of the country, 1t Is yet
a beggar at the door of patronage.
Little or no independence is actually
possessed by the journalists who
preach Independence. 1t must be
said, however, to the credit or dis
credit, as you please, of the public,
that it reflects largely the character
of the newspapers by which it is serv-
cd.
Broadly speaking, the most sensa-
tional and irresponsible newspapers
make the most money, and there has
been noted for years the gradual
degradation of the American press to
the American level. Some Of the
cleanest and most self-respecting
newspapers are published in New
England; but even here the tendency
towards lower conception of jour-
nalism cannot have escaped the obser-
walton of those who are interested in
the development of our civilization.
'The ideal newspaper does not ex-
list; it is doubtful that it ever will.
The newspapers of today, like the
churches, represent this or that view
of political questions; this or that in
dustry, or individual, or section; they
possess the enthusiasm of advocates;
they lack the wisdom of the Judge.
There is no profession so exacting,
none requiring SO extensive and &C
curate knowledge of history and phil
osophy and political economy; none
calling for so great patience of oppo-
sition, such clearness and firmness of
Judgment, such courage of conviction,
and such careful regard for the rights
of others. That is why, in my opin-
ion, the newspaper should be, in fact,
the judge and jury and not the swift
witness or the paid counsellor in the
case on trial before the people
There is not an old man or a
young man in this audience who has
ever known the issues involved in a
political campaign to have been fair
ly presented by the opposition press.
That newspaper Is unworthy which,
for personal profit or political gain
for itself or its party, misrepresents
the position of profession or a po-
litiGal rival; that follows any partic-
lar course because it is popular;
that joins in the defamation of any
man because there is something to be
made out of it, either in the way of
increased circulation or adventitious
Importance.
What both newspaper makers and
newspaper readers most need, if they
would reach the best settlement of
the question in which they are inter-
ested, is not party spirit or sectional
fervor. but broad tolerance of opin-
ion and speech"
