STEUNENBERG MEMORIAL
MEETING AT BOISE ON PATH
Pans for Raising Money Will Be
Discussed at Boise.

A meeting will be held at the Boise
Commercial club rooms Wednesday,
September "a, for the purpose of dis
cussing ways and means OF erecting a
memorial to the late Governor Frank
Steunenberg. This will be a meeting
of delegates from all parts OF the
state.
Those who have the matter of a
memorial in hand and who originated
the idea suggest that the people Of
Idaho raise $25,0O000 for this purpose.
However, in case it is impractical to
raise such an amount at once, that a
smaller sum be expended. They pro-
pose that the committee having the
matter in charge be given a wide
range in order that something may be
done within a reasonably short time

Consider the Prune.

There is no fruit grown in the Boise
Valley today which is attracting more
attention or giving the grower greater
profit than the prune. A few years
ago some of the finest prune orchards
in the west were grubbed up because
there was no market for the prune.
There is market today and over
production is impossible The result
is that new prune orchards are being
set out every year. That is all right
but we advise our readers in their
prune enthusiasm not to destroy other
orchards. The apple and the pear and
the peach are passing through the
stages which the prune passed
through. As soon as connections are
made with the right markets there
will be the same demand for these
fruits that now exists for the prune.

Bring Him Out Feet First.

The Idaho state board Of pardons
has opened the prison gates for many
criminals, but no one thinks for a
moment that Harry Orchard, confess
ed murderer of Governor Steunenberg
will be given his liberty. Orchard is
no worse than the instigators of that
horrible crime, but that is no reason
why he should be liberated. When
he leaves the penitentiary, let us hope
that Orchard will be taken out feet
first and his carcass shipped to Wis
consin to be taken care of by his ar
dent christian friends. II must not
disgrace Idaho sou-Kooskia Noun

Right Where He Belongs.

If the Signal thought for moment
that the state board of pardons would
consider the application for pardon
for Harry Orchard we would enter a
vigorous protest, but as there is not
the slightest chance for the murderer
Of Governor Steunenberg. to gain his
freedom via the pardon route there is
little need of discussing the matter
Orchard is where he belongs and vii,
remain until called to judgment in the
hirhe st court in the universe to an
>uel Tor his crines.-N q or Signal.

Wouldn't Give Him Lodgings in the
Coal House.

Harry Orchard, the confessed muir
derer of Ex-Governor Stei,nenberg
has applied for a pardon. Those who
know Orchard best. say that he has
been model prisoner and that he
has, outwardly at least, repented Of
his sins against society, and is now
fit person to go forth into the world
and lead an honest and virtuous life
We sincerely hope this is so, for the
sake of Orchard, as we'll as the public,
but all the same, we wouldn't want
a man hanging around our back yard,
who had confessed in court to be re-
sponsible for 81 murders.-W inches-

The recent session in Little Rock,
Ark, of the National Association of
Teachers in Colored Schools-its
tenth annual meeting-brought to-
gether a representative group of the
more active and influential colored
teachers of the country. This meet
ing" says the Southern Workman,
showed more completely than any
that has gone before the increasing
appreciation among colored teachers
of their peculiar duties and responsi-
bilities and Of the opportunities Of
fered by meetings of this character
for getting better understanding and
a broader view of their work. This
is the only body of national scope"
continues the Southern Workman.
whose meetings are devoted entirely
to the consideration of the more inti-
mate and vital problems of negro edu-
cation. The sessions are enlightening
and bring hope and inspiration to the
workers. They also arouse local in
terest and help to establish worthy
standards in Negro education general
ly. The meeting at Little Rock had an
tions in attendance. These men seem
ed to understand better than formerly
that they have common work and
that it is for the best interest of all to
work out their problems together. 1t
was with this end in view that they
formed a council of school presidents
as a department of the association
Although the colored teacher can do
but little directly in influencing leg
islation for negro education, public
education was given serious attention
1t is possible to interest the colored
people in making greater use OF the
public schools, and in giving them in
creased personal attention. This the
association encouraged. Stimulating
reports were made of the best public
school work being done in rural sec
tions of the south In this connection
came the strong. helpful and sympa-
thetic address of the recently ap
pointed state supervisor of colored
schools for Arkansas, Leo NJ. Favrot.
After all. -the colored teacher and the
colored people are the great forces in
negro education. For the association
to bring this fact into active con-
seriousness is to render an important
service"

From 1900 to 1910 the total value of
farm property owned, by the colored
farmers of the south increased from
s177, 4,6SS to s422 1898, ,21S, or III per
cent.
In 1863 the total wealth of the ne
groes of this country was about $780,
100000. Now the total wealth is over
$7OO 100000. No other emancipated
people have made so great progress
in SO short a time The Russian serfs
were emancipated in 1861. Fifty years
later it was found that about IA 100000
of them had accumulated about $780,
100000 worth of property, or about
$36 per capita, an average of 5000 per
family. Fifty years after their eman-
cipation only about thirty per cent. of
the Russian peasants were able to
read and write. After 80 years of free
dom the 10000, 900 negroes in the Unit
ed States have accumulated over $780,
100000 worth of property, or about $40
per capita, which is an average of $3.50
per family. After fifty years of free
dom 70 per cent. of them have some
education in books.

Born slave, Mrs. Amanda Johnson
of Albany, Ore, not only has enjoyed
freedom FOR sixty years, but on her
eightieth birthday became duly quail
fled voter with all of the rights of citi-
zenship. The adoption of women's suf-
frage in Oregon last fall paved the
way for this result and she registered
as a Republican voter.
An Oregon pioneer of 1858, Mrs.
Johnson has lived in and near Albany
continuously for 60 years. She was
born in Liberty, Clay county, Missouri,
August 80, 1888.
Her life has been eventful. The old
southern custom of family giving to
a daughter upon her marriage little
colored girl as personal attendant
and the feeling in the south against
liberated negroes before the war were
the potent factors in Mrs. Johnson's
long trip across the plains to Oregon
in pioneer days.
A daughter of the family on whose
place she was born was married when
Mrs. Johnson was seven years old and
she was given to this daughter as
wedding present.
