Mr.. w. ]. Belt to Enter the
Ministery.

The many friends here of Mr..
W. J. Bolt will read with inter
est the following taken from the
Anderson Daily Mail of last
Monday:
Mr.. W. J. Bolt, formerly
- -ss the Martin Drug
eonlpahy yshsFsA has decided to
enter the ministry Of the First
Baptist church, and has been
appointed as assistant to Rev.
DR.. John z. Vines, pastor Of the
First Baptist church. Action
was taken on the matter by the
co sgregation, at a meeting held
during the morning service Sun
day, a recommendation OF the
board Of deacons to this effect,
being adopted.
For some time it has been re-
allied that the work of the pas
tor of the church was too heavy
for one man, there being about
LOO members of the congrega-
tion. It was first decided that
clerical assistance be provided,
Later, however. when it was
found that Mr.. Bolt was avail
able. the deacons recommended
that he be employed as assist
ant to the pastor, and this has
been done by the congregation.
Mr.. Bolt will receive a salary
Of $500 per year, and will take
up his work at once. He is a
young man of sterling character
and worth. He has always
taken a deep interest and active
part in church work. especially
in the Sunday school.
A short time ago Mr.. Bolt de-
cided that he would fit himself
for s1s1 ts1cci ivzSministerY in the Bap-
20 20 church, and the opportunity
now afforded him to study under
Rev. DR.. Vines will be one of
great benefit.

losely to the constitution
Doubtless the rules were
meant instead of ''by-laws.'
But commenting on the subject
The Mail said:
There is one change that
Judge Brezeale advocated that
the subcommittee would not
agree to and that is to provide
that all who take part in the
primary shall take an oath to
support the nominees OF the
democratic party. The oath
now provides merely that the
voter will support the nominees
of this primary. y Thus it is a
person may be an out and out
republican, vote for the national
republican ticket and hold some
kind of federal job thereby and
Hereunder and yet be permitted
to take parts in the democratic
party primary" He may as
sumo a wiser than thou" po-
sition in national politics in
order to excuse his voting for
the republican ticket and yet 20
around log rolling for some can
+didate in the democratic party
primary. Judge Brezeale's 'sposi-
ton is to eliminate all such from
the party. There are not a few
Of them, scattered all over the
State, republicans for revenue,
who always vote or take active
part in the democratic party
affairs. They have no more
right to vote than these foreign
immigrants cut out by Senator
Christensen's bill.
A number of friends asked
Judge Brezeale to permit his
name to be used for chairman
of the State executive commit
tee, but he declined on the
! ground that the chairman
should live nearer. to the center
of the State.
Judge Brazeaie is right. The
rules of the party in this state
| should be changed so as to re-
quire every man offering to vote
in the primary election to take
an oath or obligation or pledge
to support the nominees of the
party, National, State and
County.
This was the rule for many
years after the primary system
was adopted in this state and
we have never been able to find
anv just reason for it's being
changed. Itwas changed, how
ever, a few years ago and in
doing so the bars were thrown
down and an invitation extend
ed to every class of POLITICAL
persuasion to walk into the pri-
maries aud help Democrats elect
their officers in the State and
County, but turned them loose
when national democracts were
at stake.
It is no open secret that men
who affiliate with the Republi-
can party, and any other party
for that matter, hold national
offices under republican admin
istrations and use their means,
time and efforts to advance the
Republican cause walk up to
the polls in our Democratic pri-
maries and vote for State and
County officers and then in the
general election vote the Re
publican ticket. It isn't right.
It isn't good politics. If they
are Republicans, third partyites,
mug wumps or what not they
should stav in their own fold.
It is hoped the rules in this
respect will be changed

frills of white batiste. which conceal the

LOCAL rHEsp1ANs SHOW ABILITY
my Ma-in-Law'' Strikes Popular
Chord Of Aporoval.

Sparkling as spring water and as re-
dundant as mountain stream was the
home talent play, entitled, "My Ma
in-Law," which occupied the boards of
our local theatre, Gee, don't it sound
good to roll off that word from one Is
tongue) Tuesday evening. The play is
merry musical comedy, so the ad-
vance man assured US and it qualified
well to the name. There were thirty
participants and in the cast some of
the best Of the homegrown thespians.
In speaking Of the production, for OBJ
vious reasons, we are not going to spec
ialize but there must be little excep-
tin for Mrs. George Algie in the title
roll, handled difficult part in most
pleasing way. Others who had diff
cult parts and played them well were
Don Fisher, George Algie, J. L. Higg,
Elmer Schnell, Alma Nickel, Sadie
Robinson and Virginia Branscombe.
The dancing and musical numbers of
which there were four, were dashing
and lively, perhaps the base ball num-
Der being the best. However, the Tale
of Strole was also worth while and
the Sis Hopkins specially was quite
pretty. The Indian number, led by
Mrs. J. I. Overman and Judge Fulton,
was appreciated and by some pro-
nounced the best of the four.
The evening was full one and it can
be said without fear Of contradiction
that there will be many travelling
company that will appear in this city
in the future that will fall short Of half
the success "My Ma-in-Law" attained.
The house was a fair one, close to $50
being in attendance. The play was put
on last night at Cottonwood and an
excellent patronage was extended by
the west side people. To Mr.. and Mrs,
Mitchell, who directed the play, more
than passing credit is due as well as to
those of the city who spared no effort
in order to make it success.

that the biggest and best celebration
ever held in Central Idaho is scheduled
for July fourth and fifth. A number
of special features are being arranged
and the old fashioned way of celebrat-

to properly observe the day, it would
be well to keep Cottonwood in mind.
