Blackfoot's Welcome.

To Blackfoot must be given the palm
for the most enthusiastic reception ac'
corded to the visitors upon the trip thus
far. OF course there were moro people
at Boise and Pocatello, but the warmth
of the reception at Blackfoot is not to
be forgotten. There were between 500
and 1000 people at the depot when the
special pulled in and L. r. Aldrioh, pres
ident Of the Commercial club, and the
newspaper and business men OF their
city lost no time in making themselves
known and extending welcome.
In addition to the enthusiastic reeep-
ton at the depot ride in automobiles
had been planned over the city and to
the fair grounds The county fair is
in progress, the oldest fair organiza ton,
by the way, in the state, and there were
sufficient autos TO convey the entire
party, including the band, to the
grounds. Here Held 8 band gave q con-
cert in the gTandstand and the visitors
witnessed An exciting Indian relay race.
The visitors also were escorted over
the grounds and shown the various hor-
ticultural and agricultural exhibits. Al
ter looking over tho fruits, vegetables,
etc, Orson II, Hewlett, director OF
the Utah State Fair association, de-
clared that the exhibit would do credit
TO any fair, state OF county, in the in
termountain country. The excursion.

Breaks His Resolution.

Except for stop of hours at La
Grande, Colonel Roosevelt was on the
train all day, travelling across Oregon
into Idaho. La Grande was not on
his programme originally, but the Pro-
gressive leaders of eastern Oregon sent
word that people from all parts of their
end Of the state were going TO the
Union county fair with the expectation
of hearing him, and that If he would
stop they would provide a special train
TO take him on 10 Boise, The colonel
once more put aside his resolution to
make no extra speeches and consented.
From La Grande, Colonel Roosevelt
started eastward again to Huntington.
where he spoke for a quarter of an hour
from his car. Then he came 20 Boise.
At several points along the line he
gave fve-minute talk to crowds at
