After the programme dry farm
peaches were served and there was had
a most delightful time.
Incensed at Smoot.
This was the last day of the Black
Hawk Indian War Veteran g association.
They had been in session two days,
mention of which has been made In
the dispatches, and today was made
general carnival. The committee in
charge had written TO Senator Smoot,
requesting his presence, and also re-
ouesting him TO deliver an address The
response accepted the invitation for to"
day. hence when the train from Salt
Lake arrived at HIS o clock there
was crowd of veterans and band
at the station to welcome the senator,
but he did not appear, nor was any
word received as TO why he did not
come.
The veterans, the committee, and
citizens in general were free in express
ing their opinion of this discourteous
treatment by the apostolic senator,
who has a cinch upon his job for sew
crai years yet. They feel that he
could at least have advised them of
his inability to be present.
