A THANKSGIVING SERMON"

My friends, Thanksgiving day
comes, by statute, once year. To
the honest man it comes as frequently
as the heart of gratitude will allow,
which may mean every day, or once
in seven days, at least.
Now, | propose, my friends, to state
few things for us to be thank
full for-when we are in the mood, of
course, for when we are not inclined
who can make us give thanks for any
thing? We should be thankful that
we know more than anybody else, for
are we not capable of talking and Civ
ing lectures upon every subject ever
talked of?
We schould be thankful that we are
all good looking Aain't we? Just look
around this audience and see if you
can spot" the person who is, in his
own estimation, not good looking. 1t
would be a curious study, to be sure,
to find in what particular some people
are good looking, but it's none of our
personal business if man has carroty
hair, eyes like a new moon, nose like
split pear, mouth like pair of waf-
file irons, chin like a Dutch churn,
neck like a gander's and body like a
corksorew. Comparatively he is good
looking-that is, there are homelier
men and animals than he-so every
body is good looking and has a right
to put on airs.
We should be thankful that we are
more pious than any one else That
we are pious is evident from the man.
ned in which we treat poor creatures
who have most unfortunately beer
driven to sin; from the fact that we
pay our preachers occasionally and al
ways require them to be unexception
able in all respects; from the fact tina
we don't work on Sunday and eat tn,
big dinners which it has made TIL,
women folks almost tired to death t.
prepare. Who is the person in thi
room who is not pious? do not car
to know him for the present.
We should be thankful that thi
world was especially created for on
own comfort, convenience and use
that we have a perfect right to life
liberty and the pursuit of happines:
no matter if these do conflict wit
some other persons wishes and happi
ness and rights
| hope you will thank me for thi
recognition of your good qualitie
your rights, your glory and trust.
shall be permitted to say of myse

On the other hand, if the cotton bill
IS likely to be defeated, Senator
borah will press his loan bill as a
separate measure, or as a feature of
some other bill behind which there i
stpong pressure. The expectation is
that the Senate, at the short session
VIII take up the conservation bills
passed by the house last session
notably the two water-power bills and
the general leasing bill, and if that
program has the backing of the adj
hinistratlon, Senator Borah will fight
70 nave the reclamation bill included
IN the provisions, unless some other
made.
The fate of the reclamation loan
6ill is largely in the hands of western
delegations and it must have their
united and their active support in Or
der to pass. The Idaho Senator is
counting upon having the full cooper
alton of western delegates when his
bill comes up for action.

WESTERN CONGRESSMAN
WIlLlTRY AGAIN FOR
GOVERNMENT LOAN

Western representatives in Congress
have been comforting with various
officials of the Interior DepartmenT
tor the past ten days with reference
the bill proposing a loan of $50
100000 to the reclamation fund ana
are satisfied that they will have the
support of the department in pressing
the bill for consideration at the shoTf
session OF congress. From Secretary
Lane down through the reclamation
commission, the department officials
are favorable to this loan, and the
Secretary stands committed to a loan
twice the size of that asked.
Ii this loan can be secured. it will
mean much to all the western states
1t will mean the construction of the
full Umatilla project in Oregon.
provided the first unit proves fnan-
cial and agricultural success, and it
means further cooperation between
the federal government and the state
OF Oregon in reviving some of the old
private and Carey act projects. 1t will
mean, in all probability, a new pro-
ject in Eastern Washington, the Pa
louise, probably, and it will mean the
Black Canyon project in Idaho.
Urgency is Recognized.
The need for this loan is urgent, as
recognized by Secretary Lane in his
last annual report, and it is expected
that the Secretary in his next report
will renew his recommendation of last
yean Without this loan, some of the
projects in course of construction
must drag along for a term of years,
whereas, with ample funds, they can
be carried through to early compile
ton. The Black Canyon project is
fair illustration. There is today in
the reclamation fund not sufficient
money to complete existing projects,
and therefore there are no funds to
build the main body of the Black
Canyon project Without a loan,
this project, except for the first unit,
must wait until after the completion
of all existing projects in other states,
which means delay of not less than
FIVE years. With the loan, the Black
Canyon project can be undertaken as
quickly as Congress will authorize
congress to make appointments,
such provision having been made in
the reclamation extension law which
was passed last session.
When the fight comes on the rec
lamation loan bill, Senator Borah pro-
badly will have strong support from
the south, for the Idaho Senator went
to the aid of the southern senators on
the cotton loan bill last session and
will stand with them at the coming
session If it develops that Congress,
this winter. is TO pass some form of
cotton loan bill. Senator Borah prob
ably will ask to have his reclamation
loan bill attached to the cotton bill.

GOODING DEALERS IN HOGS
DISTRIBUTING $4,000 A DAY
Three Large Agencies Are Taking
Everything in Sight.

Some idea of the size and impor-
lance OF the hog industry in south
ern Idaho may be gained from the
tact that three dealers at Gooding are
distributing $4,000 per day among the
farmers of this section of the state.
This statement seems exaggerated but
It is vouched for by the Gooding
Leader. which says that the state
ment is 100 per cent fact. The Good
ing paper continues:
There are three hog buying agen-
cies with headquarters at Gooding.
They are Harry Fike, who buys for
the San Francisco and Los Angeles
packers; G. R. Blasingame, who buys
for the Cudahy packing plant at Los
Angeles, and the Gem State Pack
ing company, which buys the hogs
here at Gooding Mr.. Fike is now
shipping. thirty-hve cars per week,
worth about $1,000 per car, which
amounts to $lo8,0O0 per month. Mr..
Blasingame is shipping at the rate of
about 100000 per month, and the
Gem State Packing company is using
about $4,000 worth per month, grand
total of $4,000, or over $1,000 for
every day distributed among the hog
raisers of southern Idaho through the
Gooding agencies alone
The great bulk of the hogs pur-
chased by the Gem State Packing
company come from the Gooding
tract, a few being purchased at Wen
dell and Richheld. This company is
paying out $500 per day to the farm
ers of this immediate vicinity and the
effect of this cash distribution is motto
able n improved trade conditions.
The other buyers have their agents
strung out along the line from Poca-
tello to Huntington and draw their
supply from all over southern Idaho
The cars are assembled at Pocatello
and go to the coast in solid trains.
Although the hog is yielding south
ern Idaho $4,000 per day through the
Gooding agencies alone, the hog rails
ing industry is only just started. With.
in few years this section will be pro
ducing five times the number Of hogs
now marketed and the mortgage
litter" will perform the same service
for this state that it did for Kansas
and Iowa.

IDAHO WARDEN WOULD
HAVE LAWS LIKE UTAH
Bear Lake Will be Made the Medium
for Proposed New Statutes.

]. B. Gowen, state game warden of
Idaho, will recommend to the next
session of the legislature in this state
that Idaho game laws in reference to
fish and small game be revised to
conform with Utah game laws. In a
letter which Fred w. Chambers, state
fish and game commissioner, received
from Mr.. Gowen Wednesday the Ida
no warden admits that there is urgent
need of the Standardization of fish
and game laws in the states of Wash
ington, Oregon, Utah and Idaho, says
the Herald-Republican, Salt Lake.
Owing to discrepancies between the
laws of Idaho and Utah pertaining. to
fishing, a resident of Idaho may seine
for fish in the north half of Bear
Lake, which is bisected by the Utah
Idaho boundary line, while a resident
of Utah must use hook and line and
conhne his basket to not more than
fifteen pounds of fish. He also is re-
strained from fishing in ldaho's half
of the lake unless he takes out an
Idaho nonresident fishing license.
Nearly three years ago Mr.. Cham
bers planted 10000 Mackinaw trout
in Bear Lake, which have matured
Mr.. Chambers explains that though
Bear Lake is ideal for Mackinaw
trout, it will be useless to continue
planting them there when Idaho laws
permit SEEMING in half of the lake,
while the resident of Utah must con-
form with Isaac Walton's rules and
regulations in order to make Mackin-
avs captives in the same lake.
Because of the inconsistency in the
Idaho and Utah fish and game. laws
Mr.. Chambers began urging revisions
Of the Idaho fish and game laws two
wears ago. Mr.. Chambers says thai
If Idaho accedes to the adoption Of
laws similar to those in Utah the com
bincd efforts of Idaho and Utah ii
stocking Bear Lake will make 1t
fshermRn's paradise.
Warden Gowen also says in IN
letter that he will recommend that thu
grouse shooting and duck shooting
seasons in Idaho be made to open OF
the same day as they do in Utah. Th'
federal government has been attempt
ing to standardize the duck shooting
season in all the states in the west.

SAYS SUBMARINE WAS COPIED
Krupps Infringed on Holland Pat
ents and Americans Sued.
(From the New York Times J

(From the New York Times.)
The ingenuity of an American en-
gineer and the skill of Frenchmcn are
largely responsible for the destruc-
ton of the three British cruisers
Aboukir, Hogue and Cressy-by the
German submarine or submarines, in
the opinion Of Isaac L. Rice, presi-
dent of the Elecrict Boat Company
which owns the patents for the Hol-
land submarine boat. Mr.. Rice thinks
it is quite possible that one submar-
inc did the whole job, as asserted in
the official German dispatches. And
Mr.. Rice's company has claim
against the U-9 and the other Ger
man "unterseeboten"
This war is the first real opportuni-
ty the submarine boat has had to show
what it could do" said Mr.. Rice at
the Ansonia. "Yet, while it has sur
prlsed the world it has not exceeded
our expectations.
THE Germans have always kept
the details of their submarines secret
and the rest of the world had not been
apprised of what they had accomp-
lished before the outbreak of the war.
| am OF the opinion we shall hear a
lot more. Some people seem to have
an idea that U-o is a larger vessel
than the submarines we have in this
country, but as matter Of fact our
latest types are quite as large.
We have never sold Holland sub
marine to Germany, our foreign Gus
| toners having comprised Great Bri-
tain, Austria, Holland, Russia and
Japan. We had all our inventions
patented in Germany, but that did mo-
protect us from the Germans taking
advantage of our patents. l do no
know the German engineers who have
figured in the development of thei
underwater craft and so far as
know the only name of the German
type is the "U-boats, from the initia
of the 'unterseeboten' But it is in
teresting to mention that the Ger
man boats have infringed our patent
and we have suits for infringements il
German courts.
I'VE got our first German patent
many years ago. They did not start a
work on their own account with tn
submarine idea, but they took up tn
submarine as developed by the Frenc
and with the help of ideas which W
had patented in their country and fo
, which we have not been paid they de
veloped the boat that has so latel
become famous. The Krupps were r.
sponsible for the arrangements and

We actually won the suit in the highC
