Bethany Presbyterian church, on the
bench near the Cole school house, was
crowded to the doors last night to wit
ness the interesting services in con-
nection with the installation Of Rev

The committee from the presbytery
of Boise, which conducted the install
lation had in 1t two former pastors
OF the Bethany church. Rev. e. N.
Murphy, pastor of the Pierce Park
Presbyterian church, presided. and
preached the sermon. Rev Murphy
was former pastor at Bethany and
preached from the same passage OF
Scripture which furnished his text
when he first went to Bethany, 16
years ago. At the close of the SER
mon Rev. Murphy asked those in the
congregation who were at Bethany
when he preached 16 years before, to
rise. Eight persons rose.
The charge to the pastor was given
by Rev, Henry Quickenden, pastor of
the Second Presbyterian church OF
Boise, also former pastor of Beth
any. The charge to the people was
given by Rev. McLain w. Davis, pas
tor Of the Westminster Presbyterian
church. Boise.
After the pastor was duly declared
installed. Rev. Murphy, in the name
of the Ladies' Aid society Of the church,
presented Rev. Lindsay and his wife
with a beautiful brass jardiniere and
fern. Rev. Lindsay accepted the gift
with few well chosen remarks.
After the formal installation serv-
ices refreshments were served by the
Ladies' Aid society, after which Mr.
and Mrs. Lindsay held a reception in
their new home adjoining the church.
Rev. Lindsay has been on the Beth
any field only few months. but has
made an enviable record in that time
One Of the results of his work Is shown
in the beautiful 8-room manse which
the pastor and his wife now occupy
The finely arranged and tasteful in
terror of the new manse was much ad-
mired by the guests. A committee
of young ladies assisted Mrs. Lind

If he can be induced to train his big

camp.
For some time President Bossner has
been busy on the Spokane club man
ager. He took the matter Of the Ind

over other localities in the west so
far as early training quarters are con-
cerned. 1t will be no great surpriss ?,
therefore, IL Cohn gives the wo I'd
designating Boise as his 1913 training
place.

PART OF CORRUPTION
FRAUD IN WEST VIRGINIA
In 1904 When Dawson Was Made
Governor.
How The Republicans Bought The
State.

Former Senator Nathan B. Scott
declined to be sworn when he APP
peared before the Senate committee
which is investigating the campaign
expenditures of different parties in
recent national campaigns. He said
he was a Quaker, and that 1t was
contrary to their religious belief to
take an oath.
He admitted to the committee,
however, that he had contributed
some 100000 or $40, 000-he could
not remember the exact amount to
the campaign Of 1904 This amount
together with $4,000 contributed
by George w. Perkins, he said. was
expended in West Virginia.
He said it was regarded that year
that the Republicans had a hard
fight on hands in West Virginia. and
that it was doubtful whether they
could pull w M. O. Dawson through
that he told this to Perkins, and that
the contributions of himself and
Perkins were made in October when
il looked most doubtful about Daw-
SON
He said the Perkins contribution
was made because Of Perkins close
relations with Mr.. Roosevelt. Perkins
and Dawson We're both with Roose-
welt this year, antagonizing the in
terests of Scott, who put nearly
$4,000 into the campaign to help
elect Dawson.

Mr. Ed. r. Juhling, of this city,

both the State and national conven-
lions which are to be held on the

spectively.
Mr.. Juhling has been strong
supporter of Mr.. Roosevelt from the
first and is heartily in favor Of the
Third party movement He will be
working factor in both the State
and national campaigns and will
throw his whole soul into the fight
for better government in local and
State political affairs. He may be-
come a candidate for some of the
important offices on the Roosevelt
ticket when the plans are finally ar
ranged and will be thoroughly
identified with the new party in the
future.

Party in the interest of purifying the

Scott and His $40. 900.

The more you know of the old
defunct Republican party the more
corrupt it's past record becomes.
Poor old Scott put up his $4,000
that he might stay in the Senate to
misrepresent the people. Perkins put
up his SIS, 900 to corrupt the ballot
of West Virginia because he admired
Roosevelt. Think of it West Vir-
ginians This was only two of the
number of contributors who poured
Doodle money in this State to corrupt
the ballot in 1904. Can the honest
voter in West Virginia continue to
vote with a party that is honey
combed with such rottenness and
political fraud.
