NEED OF II.

An association OF business men OF
Ada county has been orgar izcd for
the purpose Of studying legislative
measures introduced at each session
of the legislature, and collecting data
so that body may be informed of the
object and utility of proposed enact
ments This is a worthy pm. rose to
which the gentlemen propose to de-
vote their time. Laws nowadays most
be made to fit a rather complex state
of society, and in framing them not
only good sense, but wide range OF
making them so that they vii serve
the purpose intended.
One of the most noticeable facts
about the legislature just closed was
the half baked character of the great
err number of the bills introduced.
Dozens of them that had more than a
grain OF worth were killed because in
discussing them it was found that
they couldn't work out as they were
intended to do, and many were pass
ed that had no merit whatever. Yet
conditions will not be improved when
the legislature meets again two
years from now unless somebody is
at work in the meantime gathering
data on which sound conclusions can
be formed.
More real study between sessions
and less grandstanding in the legis-
lative halls would be real help to
the laws Of Idaho.

GOD OF THE OPEN AIR

Thou hastm Thy dwelling fair
With flowers beneath, above with starry lights,
And set Thine affairs everywhere
IN mountain heights,
In woodlands dim with a Dream
valleys bright with springs,
And on the curyng of stream;
Thou who hast taken Thyself the wings
OF morning to abide
Upon the places of the
And on far islands, where the tide
Visits beauty OF unrodden shores,
Waiting for worshippers Thee
In Thy great out-of- doors!
To Thee turn Thee | make my prayer
God of the Open Air
BY the breadth Of the blue that shines silence
BY the length
BY the height of the cloud that sails with motion,
Over the plains and the wales of the measureless
oh how the sight of the things the

BY the calm of the rivers flow goal that hidden
BY the of the that clngs deep
Wonderful of that abides
Teach me how to conhde and live life, and rest

For the balm of the breeze that brush face with their fingers
For the of the twilight
For the long breath the deep BREATH the breath of heart without

etreasu Of the humble heart
In true possession owing them by love;
And when at last | can longer
Among them freely but pass
From the fields and from the clear
Let creep
Into darkened and hide
From all that make the world bright dear;
But throw the windows wide
To welcome in the light;
And while / clasp well beloved hand
Let have sight
OF the deep sky and the far-smiing land
Then gently fall sleep,
And breathe my body to Natures care,
My spirit out to Thee, God of the Open Air.

THAT TARIFF BILL.

II the Democrats succeed in pass
ing the new tariff bill in its present
form they may live happily ever af-
forwards but the chances are against
them. Here are some objections:
Farmers oppose reducing the duty on
wheat from 20 cents to 10 cents. Mil
lers cannot figure out why wheat is
taxed while flour is free. Angora
goat hair, now on the free list, is to
be taxed 20 per cent. Wool is to be
free. Texas wants duty on wool TO
protect that industry from Mexico.
Wool raisers of Northwest and East
ern states will back up Texas. Max
ing vanilla extract is an important
industry in Maine. The new law pro-
poses to place tax of so cents a
pound on vanilla beans and Senator
Jones, of Maine, is hollering, for it
will cripple his state. Ohio Democrats

 The Osage ball team defeated Green Forest last Thursday by a score of s to ?, the game being played on the Osage diamond. The feature of the game was when our Ben famed Roy Kirk three times.

A Neglected iiobson.

Carrollton, Ark. The press and the people have had much to say about the gallant exploit of Lieut.. Hobson in Santiago Bay. I have no desire to remove one leaf from the laurel wreath he has won, but l can not help but compare the honors showed upon him with the neglect which has been the reward of many men who, during the civil war, performed similar deeds. l know of number of such, and think my own case is an example was a Corporal in the 2d Arkansas Cavalry. While on a raid in Mis- sissippi, 1865, Lieut. Col. Cameron being in command, we reached Cold water, where Gen. Forest was camped guarding ferry boat. Col. Cameron called for volunteer to sink the boat. ] responded to the call and did as Lieut.. Hobson. Under a heavy fire 1 swan the river, sank the boat and swan back under fire to my command. l received no promotion or medal, not even smack from any lady's lips.
