Professor G. j. Brosnan of
Nampa Reveals Hitherto
Unknown Facts as Result
of Painstaking Research.
INTIMATE VIEW OF
MANY PATHFINDERS
Associations Of. Men Who
Laid the Foundations for
Com ing Generations
Neglected Grave of Ida
hos First Governor, an
Intimate of Lincoln.

Before q thousand high school stu
dents yesterday Professor c. J. Bros
nan, superintendent of the public
schools of Nampa, delivered a lecture
In which he presented some hitherto
unknown facts relative to Idaho his
tory. Professor Bosnan's remarks
were frequently applauded and he was
invited to return to continue recital of
the absorbing subject.
Professor Brosnan at the outset
made the point that patriotism begins
at home. II the young people of Idaho
are toNbe taught patriotism, he stated,
the schools must teach them to be 10y
al to their own home, their own neigh
bors, their own school. and if they
show fine loyalty within that mar
row circle, they can be later counted on
to be loyal to their state and their ma
ton.
UNSouND TEACHING.
He declared that teaching of history
in the past had been based on unsound
principles, that it had been grounded
on the theory that young people should
be started with the study of Egypt or
o remote group of seaboard states,
rather than with the romantic and
thrilling story Of our own state, and
added:
"1n the past we have insisted up
on our pupils studying about the
Egyptian Nile, but have neglected
to tell them about ours Idaho Nile.
I'VE have insisted on their de-
scribing the Assouan dam but we
have neglected to tell them that we
have three most remarkable dams
in the state Of Idaho.
I'VE have insisted on their
knowing the story of Pocahontas
but we have neglected the more
fascinating story of Sacajawes,
whom Professor Hosmer declares
to be one of the two most remark
able Indian women in history.
Two illustrations OF this lack of
the right kind of loyalty to our own
state were given that in 1899 in
northern Idaho where the Potlatch
river flows into the Clearwater a
beautiful Lewis and Clark medal
of the medallion grade was found
in the grave of Nez Perce Indian
chief. Thu medal Is now on ex-
hibition in the American Museum
of Anthrepology in New York
city, city which in no wise his
torically was connected with this
most remarkable exhibit"
Mr.. Brosnan insisted that this media
which reposed in Idaho soil for nearly
100 years should be in our state his
torical library at Boise, where the
young and old OF coming generation,
could come and see 1t and be reminded
Of the marvelously interesting his
torical event which it commentaries.
Another incident cited nv the apeolx.
er of a seeming lack of our own people
in preserving the relics that belong tt
Idaho soil, was permitting of the talk.

RUMAN|ANS ARE
IN WAR TO STAY
SAYS COMMISSION
Munitions Purchasers Tell
Japanese Campaign Is
Over By No Means.

Toxic, JAN 2-While everybody in
Toxic was awaiting news as to the
fate of Bucharest a Rumanian mis-
sion arrived here to negotiate the pur-
chase of munitions. 1t includes two
officers, Leutenant-Colonel C. Felix
and Colonel F. Petresco of the engi-
neering corps. They said the fall of
Bucharest would by no means end
the Rumanian campaign. "Our ma
tura1 line Of defense lies east and
northeast of the capital they said.
1.-The rapid offensive Of the Central
Powers may give them temporary adj
vantage but the Rumanians entered
in this war to stay and we will be in
at the finish The speaker believed
1t was now a question of reinforce
ments arriving for both Sides The
Russians who were coming to Ru-
.mania's assistance have an open ter
ritory to cover while the Germans
have a difficult mountainous >coun-
try through which. they must trans
port their artillery and bring rein
forcements. He declared that al
ready about 100000 Russian troops
were in Rumania and that additional
reinforcements were arriving daily.
The present output of munitions in
Japan is practically all taken by Rus
STA, but it is likely that something
will be done for the Rumanians. The
visit of the Rumanian officers has
been followed by further rise in the
price of war supplies.

NATIONAL PROHIBITION.
New York GIebe.)


The worst thing about prohibition
has been that it has not prohibited.
Areas Of dryness have been surround
ed by wetness. And partial and in
complete enforcement has developed
a train Of collateral evils, outweigh
ing in Hciousness the admitted evils
of the liquor traffic. Corruption in
its worst forms has often logged the
footsteps Of prohibition and the con-
viction has been born that it did more
harm than good.
1t also fails, though proposing an
immense destruction of property, to
provide compensation in any way.
Men have been allowed, even encour-
aged, to invest in a business, and our
people have not been friendly to con-
fiscation. We endure a land owner
ship system gravely faulty largely be-
cause of the investments made in
good faith and with public consent
Except as to s1ave-holding we have
never confiscated, and as to slavery
there would doubtless have been COM
pensation except flor the madness of
the slave-holdings states in plunging
in aNwar to defend their particular in
stitution.

SERVICES
OF ENGINEER IN

Help New England Sc
lectmen with Problems :"

The authorities Of many New Eng
land towns are now preparing ito
either construct new highways, or to
improve existing roads, and unless
they employ a competent road eng1-
neer of experience, they may have
considerable difficulty in laying out
the work or in estimating to what ex-
tent an appropriation may be used
to the best advantage.
You may be interested to know that
our Association has opened a new de-
partment called the Department of
Highways" and that Mr.. Sidney Won
Loesecke, an engineer Of seven years
experience, has resigned his position
as an engineer of the Boston Transit
Commission to accept the position we
have offered him as Chief Engineer in
charge of this work. In order that
New England towns may use their
appropriations to the very best ad-
vantage to the towns as we'll as to the
users Of highways. we cordially in
vite them toy accept Mr.. Won Loes-
ecke's service as a consulting engi-
neer to any extent they may see fit.
without charge.
We wish to assure you that in &C
cepting our engineers service you
will not be placing yourself or your
town under any obligations to us, but
that you will be. instead, placing US
under very pleasant obligation to
give you or your town, all possible
advice and assistance.
In addition to the construction Of
new roads, or repairing of existing
highways, there are many other
matters in which the service of our
engineer might. be of interest to you,
such as, for instance, the cheapest
and best way to reduce dangerous
banks at sharp corners or intersect-
ing Streets to eliminate shrubbery
or other vegetable growth at danger
Gus corners and curves; to sign up
highways leading from your town to
another; to erect warning signs at
dangerous curves and railroad cross
ings, ETC. It also seems to us that
many of the towns now considering
the rebuilding of weak bridges could
save themselves considerable expense
by strengthening the bridges already
existing, if they had the service of
such an engineer as we now employ.
Since the systematic development
of this important department will re-
quire very careful consideration as
we'll as much valuable time, we would
appreciate very much an expression
of opinion from you, as to whether or
not you may be likely to avail your
self of Mr.. Won Loesecke's service,
and a brief summary of the improve
ments you have in mind. Such let
ter furnished us in advance would
enable us to prepare suggestions that
might otherwise be overlooked.
