Letters From the People
Defense Of Basque Citizens.

Evening Capital News: Please al
low me to say word in your valu-
able paper because l do think good
paper is one of the most valuable as
sets of any commonwealth. l notice
in your paper an article in regard to
an attack made at the meeting Of the
land board on the Basque citizens of
our state by one of our legislators.
Now, / think / am competent to judge,
as l have been in close touch with
these people for dozen years, both
as to business and as neighbors. My
place of business at 211 South Ninth
street is right in the midst OF the
Basque people on all sides and
want to say / do not want any better
neighbors than they are. They are In
dustrious and thrifty and are espe-
cially loyal and patriotic. l have no.
ticed how they enter into the patriotic
observance of our national holidays.
just want to compare these people
with the large majority of the other
foreign peoples we have.
The Basque comes to America TO
make it his home the balance of his
life and to raise his family here and
educate his children in our schools
and to be real loyal American citizens.
| What other foreign element have we
who does this? The Basque people
keep their money here, spend 1t here
| and invest it here. / know from bus
/ mess experience with these people
that every bank in Boise has large
| list Of depositors from these people
and many of them of no small accounts
They are liberal, spend their money
freely and they always have 1T to pay
for what they want and there is not
business house in Boise but what
will give these people the lowest pos
sible price because they know that
they are going to get the cash.
/ wish all the people who come tc
America would make as good, loyal
patriotic, Industrious. law-abiding citi-
zens as the Basques do.

"Oh, / do not think SO. People in love

what chance is there to show Miniature
when one is being made to feel angelic
because of loving attention and adula-
ton. The modern courtship Is a poor
preparation or marriage in my opin-

The Rev. Dr. B. NJ Triple, assigned

claimed in the Methodist gospel"
Secretary Bovard reported that dur

years. The society had Sl,762,794 to

M'LOUGHLIN HEIRESS'S
BODY SECRETLY BURIED
Relatives to Fight Request to
Man She Wed.

Grace Mclaughlin, the Brooklyn
heiress, who died in Havana FIVE months
after her elopement with George NJ.
Stevens. garage owner, with whom she
stored her automobile in Manhattan,
was buried secretly last Sunday in
Calvary Cemetery. A memorial mass
was held yesterday in st. Ignatius
Loyola Church. Park Avenue and
Eighty-fourth Street. The burial record
was made out as that OF Mrs. Grace
Mclaughlin Stevens.
Relatives of the girl recently de-
cided to contest any will which might
be produced by Stevens on the ground
that he had no legal right to marry
Miss Mclaughlin last December, a
short time after he had been divorced
from his first wife. II is their conten-
ton that the divorce was not binding
until three months after the court
action and that in marrying before
that time Stevens went through a eere-
mony that is not legal.
