COMES BACK AFTER LOOKING
OVER THE SOUTHWEST

A six months tour through Cali
fOrnia, Nevada, Arizona and Utah has
convinced j. NJ. Elliott that there is,
after all, no place like the section of
Idaho wherein is located the great
Twin Falls country Mr.. and Mrs
Elliott, formerly of Twin Falls, start
ed on their trip early last fall after
spending the summer on a ranch near
HOLSTER. Carrying a complete camp
ing outfit along with them in their
Ford, they spent just four nights in
hotels during the entire time they
were on the road. Several weeks
were put in at different places in Cal
jfornia, while the winter was spent at
Phoenix, Arizona They left Phoenix
on the 26th of January, but were tied
IN for several weeks at different
places. and finally abandoned the Ford
at TremontOn, Utah, owing to the
condition of the roads between Ire
monitor and Albion. where the snow is
just melting and the highways are a
sea OF mud. Mr. and Mrs. Elliott were
accompanied the greater part Of the
way to Twin Falls by the POllus and
Kennedy families of Kimberly, who
spent the winter in California.
Considerable trouble was expert
enced at different times owing to the
flooded conditions of creeks, many Of
which were without bridges. Mr.. FL

LOCAL DEBATE TEAMS
WIN CHAMPIONSHIP
Boise and POcatelIO Both Meet De-
School Debate Teams.

Twin Fails high school holds the
championship of the triangular league,
consisting of Boise, POcatellO and the
Twin Falls high schools. The ques-
ton which was debated simultane-
ously at the three places last Friday
night was: Resolved, That our fed
eral government should own and
operate a public telegraph system"
Tho team from Boise at Twin Falls
took the negative side of the question
and argued on the following points
That government ownership of the
telegraph is contrary to the fixed pol
icy of the constitution; that the pres
ent system is more efficient than the
governmentally-ow systems of Fu-
rope, and tnat the present is not the
time to take over the telegraph sys-
tens
The affirmative team took the stand
that the present system was virtually
a private monopoly and as such was.
highly Objectionable because of the
many evils connected with monopoly,
but that a government monopoly
would eliminate these evils, and that
the measure was practicable.
The rebuftals were lively and very
interesting, but before the debate was
over. although he Boise team had
much the stronger side of the ques-
ton, it was easy to see that the local
team had won The judges rendered
an unanimous decision in favor Of the
affirmative and this result seemed to
meet the approval of all present.
The Twin Falls negative team which
debated at Pocatello argued that gov
ernmcnt ownership of the telegraph
was politically and economically
wrong and that the present system
was so satisfactory that no change
would be justifiable. They presented
their case so we'll that the judges
awarded them two decisions, thus CIV
ing~Twin Falls five decisions out of
six possible ones and a majority over
the other schools.
The teams lined up as follows. in
order of speaking:

OLCOTT's REPUBICANIsM.
(OregOn Yoter.)

NOlCbOh 'OtCi'l
When a mans party affiliation is
30 obscured by his efficiency as
public officer that the editor of The
Voter inadvertently referred to him
as a democrat instead OF republican,
the circumstances may be taken as an
unusual indication of able admins
tration. Such is the case OF Ben w.
Olcott, secretary OF state, enormously
referred to by The Voter in last
weeks issue as a democrat. Mr.. OIL
colt Is and always has been repub-
llcan. His selection for office was
not based upon partisan consldera-
tions, and his success in office GER
tainly was not due to political organ
ization. AS a partisan he simply has
been one Of the rank and file Of the
republican party; he has not been
prominent as a political organizer;
he simply has been a plain adherent
Of republican principles, but has
been filling his state office as a rep
resentative of the whole people, ad
ministering its affairs without regard
TO political considerations. The
Voters inadvertence was an unin-
tended compliment to Mr.. Olcott's
especial fitness for reelection, and
while inexcusable from an editorial
point Of view, It was a mistake which
carried with it significant lesson.

and understood by the men who
wrought them, and she said that il
she could discover the law it would
be found to operate in the same man
ner now as in Bible times; that it
would be a healing law, and would
now heal people of sicknes and sin
and every evil human condition the
same as then.
This idea grew and expanded in her
consciousness until it became the i'm
pelling motive of her entire life. In
the year 1866 she discovered the law
of spirit, and named 1t Christian Sci
ence. After waiting nine years, dur
ing which time she subjected the
/ Principle that she had discovered to
the brOadest practical tests in healing
sickness and other forms Of human
discord, she published statement Of
Christian Science in book which she
entitled Science and Health With
Key to the Scriptures" This book is
now everywhere recognized as the
only textbook of Christian Science.
A great religious movement has
formed around its teachings, which in
one generation has girdled the earth
with its churches. The spread of
Christian Science has been phenome-
nal, and in every case its growth has
resulted from the healing of the sick.
Every adherent of Christian Science
has actually been healed of some sick
ness, disease or sinful appetite, and
most of them have been healed Of
many such conditions. These facts
are easily verified, and are worthy
of very serious consideration.
Spiritual law.
Mrs. Eddy discovered the law of
Spirit as truly as Sir Isaac Newton
discovered the law of gravitation, and
this fact should be thoroughly under
stood. Just as Newton discovered
that the movements of material bod
les were regulated and governed by
this material law, so Mrs. Eddy dis
covered the Principle that governs the
entire universe, including every de-
tail in the lives of men. That su-
preme, creative, governing. omnipres-
ent Mind or Principle, is God, the
only Cause, the only Creator, the only
Ruler of man and the universe.
When we watch water flowing over
the land we see that without hesita-
tion or delay it always selects the low
places. All fresh water is continually
striving to reach the sea, where it
will be at rest. In choosing its course
it measures the topography Of the
ground more accurately and more
quickly than the engineer could do
with his instruments. No embodied
mind is present to tell it where to go,
but there is an unerring, invisible law
everywhere present directing its
and always guiding it in
the true course.
If such perfect law exists to guide

known and understood in part by
Moses and the prophets, and which
was perfectly understood and demon
strated by Jesus, and by him taught
to his disciples. There is no mystery
about it, and the results produced by
Christian Science are the results
which have always followed, and
must necessarily follow. from the ap-
prehension and demonstration of spir-
itual truth. Christian Science is
nothing more nor less than a return
to primitive Christianity, and every
one who turns to it fairly and honest
ly will find in it that which will sat
isfy his spiritual aspirations and meet
his human needs.
Mrs. Eddy's Discovery Of Christian
Science.
Mrs. Eddy is acknowledged to be
the Discoverer and Founder of Chris
tian Science, and many people ask
what it is that she has discovered.
In reply it can be said that she has
discovered the Law of Spirit which is
Spiritual Truth.
In the material realm many ma
terial laws have been discovered. Sir
Isaac Newton, for instance, observed
the movements of material bodies,
and conceived the idea that such
movements were governed by law
which he afterwards discovered and
named the law Of gravitation. This
law can not be seen with the physical
eyes, but its existence can be proved
in other ways. Likewise, Marconi
gained the idea that another law ex-
listed, and he said that If he could
discover it he would be able to trans
NIT messages by its agency from one
part of the earth to another without
any material wires. That law has
always existed and has always oper-
ated, but it was not until it was dis
covered that it became available for
human use. 1t can not be seen by
the human eye, but anyone may now
learn how to utilize it.
In much the same way there was
born in the consciousness of Mrs.
Eddy the idea that there exists a law
of spirit. She had observed that
sometimes great suffering and dis
tress were produced by material laws,
and that even whole communities
were devastated and destroyed by
their operation, hence she came to
the conclusion that a God who pos
sesses infinite wisdom and goodness
could not operate through laws that
produce both good and evil. She,
therefore, came to the conclusion that :
God is governing his children and his !
universe through spiritual laws and ,
not through material laws.
Mrs. Eddy also studied the miracles
in the Old and New Testaments, and
came to the inevitable conclusion that
all of those transactions were corre-
ated by means of an underlying
spiritual law that has been known
