Judge Martin Is Dead.


chronicle the sudden and unexpected
death of one of the best personal
friends it has ever been our pleasure
to know--William Harry Martin
who died at Versailles where he was
holding court, at s:4s at the city ho-
tel in that city, Thursday morning,
April 10, 1911.
Judge Martin complained of feeling
bad on the afternoon of the previous
day and he was attended by physic.
ians of Versailles. and had sent to
Boonville for his family physician,
but before he reached his bedside he
was dead.
Judge Martin spent Sunday night
in this city with the writer and family.
At that time he was, apparently, in
the best of health. He was feeling
fine ; he jokingly commented on the
proceedings of the Republican caucus
at Kansas City on Saturday in which
that assembly singled him out as one
of the prospective candidates for
Governor in 1912.
He and l practically ''lived our
lives ouer again" at that time, by re-
calling pleasant incidents of the past
when we were students together at
Hooper Institute at Clarksburg.
He mentioned briefly the loyalty
of his Democratic friends; how they
came to his assistance at time when
he needed their support.
Judge Martin was self made man !;
he was the soul of honor, and, had
he lived, he would have either been
elected Governor of this state or
selected as one of the Supreme Judges
had the Republican party remained
in power.
His personality, his honesty of pur-
pose, his true worth as an impartial
jurist and an upright citizen warrant
this prediction.
In his death the state suffers the
loss OF one Of its best citizens, and
the Bar one of its strongest and most
conscientious members.
Judge Martin was "A years of age
at the time of his death. He is sur
vived by the wife and five sons who
reside in Boonvile.
Peace to his ashes and may his
grave be kept green.-Tipton Times.

had been so badly mashed it refused

The aim of the Boy Scouts is to
supplement the various existing edu-
Cational agencies, and to promote the
ability in boys to do things for them
selves and others. The method is
summed up in the term Scout-craft,
and is a combination of observation,
deduction and handness-or the abil-
ity to do things. Scout-craft consists
of First Aid, Life Saving, Tracking,
Signaling. Cycling, Nature Study,
Seamanship. Campcraft, Woodcraft,
Chivalry, Patriotism and other in
struction. This is accomplished in
games and team play, and is pleas
ure, not work, for the boy. The
only equipment it needs is the out-of-
doors, a group Of boys and leader

Boy Scouts orglnization. Richard

this bar has lost a tried and true
friend. Yet in this dark hour we are
consoled and strengthened by the
reflection that just and good man is
enjoying his reward in higher court,
and we rejoice in the thought that he
has left to his family and friends a
heritage of christian virtue, purity of
life and love of justice which will en-
dure far into the dim future.
In his application of the criminal
statutes he tempered justice with
mercy, and many OF the unfortunate
violators thereof, through his wise
and firm administration of the parole
law, we're enabled to escape the stig-
ma OF imprisonment, to retrieve their
former good standing and to become
good and useful citizens. To them,

What are the BOY Scouts2

The Boy Scouts is an organization
the purpose of which is character
building for boys between the ages of
twelve and eighteen. 1t is an effort
to get boys to appreciate the things
about them, and to train them in self
reliance, manhood and good citizen
ship. 1t is Peace-Scouting that these
boys engage in, living as much as
possible out of doors; camping, hik-
ing and learning tAe secret of the
woods and fields. The movement is
hot military, but the military virtues
of discipline, obedience, neatness and
order are scout virtues. Endurance,
self-reliance, self-control and an effor,
to help someone else are scout OBJ.
jectives. Every activity that lends
itself to these aims is good Scout
craft.
The ORIGIN OF THE Boy SCOUTS.
The Boy Scout Movement in its
present form was started in England
by General Sir Robert Baden-P Powell.
He was impressed with the fact tina,
46 per cent of the boys of England
were growing up without any knowl-
edge of useful occupations, and want
ed to do something that would help
the box to become a useful citizen.
He emphatically stated that his in
tention was not the making of soldiers.
In his work. General Baden-Powell
has touched boy life in all its interests
and broadened a boys outlook by
she widest sort of activities. The
Movement is touching a large num-
ber OF countries.

Bonds Garry.

Fortg-tWo votes we're polled at
,ho Meridian village bond election
al Tuesday, all but four of these
yoting in the affirmative. While
nj little interest was taken By
me citizens, this was perhaps on
.ccnnnt of the fact that there was
81 opposition, aud each one
thought that his neighbor's vote
would be enough to carry it any
way.
The success of The proposition
means that the village, through
,hs sale Of $4,000 of bonds, which
will be negotiated at once, will be
able to pay off $4,000 of water
works Indebtedness and have
1900 to construct cement cross
walks and otherwise improve the
streets of Meridian. This W )rk
will be done this winter and means
that every laboring man in the
village will have work.
The reason that eleven out of
twelve of the voters cast their bal
lots in favor ofthe bonds is this,
Meridian's fine water works sys-
tenn is such a success that they
are willing to pay for it, even if it
did cost 5000 more than was
first estimated. : ~ E

A Big Fair.

The Intermountain Fair and
Rainmakers' Carnival attracted
the majority Of our citizens to
Boise last week aud the first two
days of this week. While the
rain interfered with the first few
days. the last of the fair was per-
feet success. Thousands were on
the hegrounds Friday and Saturday
The exhibits were nearly twice in
number that of any previous fair,
and the display of fruits and veg
stables were fine. AS usual the
bench" around Meridian had
some of the best of the exhibits,
not including the Allen display,
which was in a prize winning
class by itself.
Pool selling and gambling was
allowed on the grounds, for the
first time in several years, but the
people, irrespective of the pro-
tests from other sources, have
tired of the game, and there was
not enough profit in it to pay for
the extra help required to handle
the pools. As result the gam
