Caldwell, May 12.-Today marks the
seventh annual anniversary of the
founding of the College of Idaho, To-
Gated in this city. and celebration of
the event, participated in by several
thousand people is in progress. The
annual celebration OF the founding of
this popular institution of education
which has become an established Gus

has come to be known as founders
day" and is observed on the second
Friday in May of each year. The vast
majority Of the alumni association of
the college are in attendance and added
to these numerous participants are
visitors from all sections of this and
adjoining, counties. 1t was with the
view of according merited recognition
Of the late Governor John T. Morrison,
the present popular and efficient presi-
dent, Dr. Boone, Mrs. Henry Blatchley
and others of the real founders Of the
college that this day was designated,
for it is to these far seeing, progress
sive and unseifish characters that this
institution which is so we'll and favor
ably known today owes it's existence.
The college stands as a towering and
permanent monument to their earnest
and unselfish efforts in behalf Of the
advancement of Christianity, the devel-
opment of intellectually and the pro-
motion of all the essentials of good
citizenship.
Tribute Of Gratitude.
Most assuredly, this tribute of graft
tude and honor to these founders of
this institution is deserved one, for
1t was in the darkest period Of the his
tory of the college, in its very begin
ming when it's dtstiny was of grave con
Germ to those who were endeavoring to
blaze the way for the new and unde-
veloped west to the proportions of civ
ilization of the east that these far
seeing Christian men and women vol
unteered their services as instructors
without reeompense that its perma-
neney might be assured and its strong
influence exerted effectively for the
promotion and extension of Christian
education. The nnselfish sacrifice
they made. the consistent Christian
leadership they exerted is indeed
worthy of the remembrance and graft
tude which are reflected through the
observance of the celebration OF to-
day. II was as the friend and former

RUSSIAN LEET IS AGAIN
BOMBARDING CONSTANZA
INSIST
ON AN EXTRA SESSION
of Legislature to Take Meas
ures to Prevent Big Steal .
by Democratic Machine.

CHARLESTON. Nov 13. Hun
dreds of Republicans throughout the
state, alarmed by threats of Demo-
cratic leaders to GUST all Republican
state officials as were elected in last
Tuesdays election, in case it is shown
CornweIl is elected governor, are
communicating with Governor Hat
field and insisting that he convene
the legislature in extraordinary ses-
sion to change the law before it is
too late. Nearly q hundred Republic
cans have gathered here, many of
them members of the present legis-
lature, and all agree that an extraor-
binary session Is necessary If those
Republicans are to be allowed to hold
the Office to which the people Of the
state elected them.
It is admitted that in case Cornwell
is elected the Democrats will have
power to GUST the other state officials
elected. Contests need not be entered
until after Cornwell's Inauguration
and he would have power of APP
pointing the third member Of a spec
ial court which would decide the con-
tests and from that decision there
would be no appeal. II the law is to
be amended it must be done prior to
December /, as the old legislature
goes out Of Office on that date and in
the new legislature the House will be
Democratic. Democrats have talked
openly that IL the present law re
mains in effect the state government
will be under Democratic control in
all departments soon after Cornwel1
is inaugurated.
In case the legislature is convened
tits likely that steps will be taken to
spare the governor Of much of his
power, because of Cornwell's boasts
that he Will remove Republican APT
pointees whose terms have not ex-
PRED. This can be done by giving
the appointing power to the board of
pub lie WnrlcsziRstaad-o OF he-seYernor
and a precedent has been established
for this by the Democrats. In 1873
after Governor Jacobs had been elect
ed as, an independent candidate, a
Democratic legislature fearing that
he would appoint some Republicans
to office enacted a law taking all the
appointing power from the governor.
and vesttng 1t in the board Of pub
lie works.
In last Tuesdays election out OF
nine candidates for state office the
Republicans have certainly elected
eight with the governorship in doubt.
The Republicans therefore feel justt-
fed even IN shearing the governor Of
his appointing power under the cir
cum stances even as the Democrats
did Governor Jacobs. It is well re-
membered what the Dem ocrats did to
Senator Golf when he was elected
governor and the Republicans feel
that even more revolutionary meth
DDS will be adopted by the Democracy
this time unless some action is taken
before it is too late.
