BLUE SKY AND ANTITRUST
LAWS.

Chapter III, seccion law: OF 1913,
commonly known as the blu sky law.
and chapter 2f5. session laws of 1911,
commonly known as the anti trust law,
have not worked Satisfactorily. They
arc not broad e-ough in their scope;
their penalties are insufficient and the
power 10 enforce their provisions Is
inadequate. | recommend that they be
strengthened, giving greater powers for
their enforcement.
FORT LEMHl HISTORICAL PARK.
| desire to call attention to spot in
Lemhi county near Tendoy. where
there exists a fort built by the first
white settlers in 1854. The walls of
this fort are partly intact and enclose
a strip Of ground of about four acres,

nartnent be authorized TO buy THY
tract, If it can BID had reasonably, out
of the game fund. and to take charge
Of it and convert ii into a park, under
the same rules, regulations and gov
ernment as that of Hepburn Park.
This will make of this historic land
monument that will be a pride for
future generations and an everlasting
monument to the pioneers who under
went untold hardkhips and dangers in
order to make Idaho fill the place II

IN CONCLUSION.
In conclusion permit me again to ex-
press the hope that We may all work
together in the fullest harmony with
but the single purpose in view to serve
tho people of Id1ho 10 the very hest
of our ability, deVpting our talents and
every moment Of our time while the
legislature remains at the capital. to
this accomplishment. To this end.
trust no hositancy will be found upon
the part Of any member to call upon
the chief executive office fer informa-
ton, and on behalf of the other eXeeu-
tive officers and the judiciary. ! feel
free to extend tho same proffer of as
sistance. Let us make of this Four
teenth session of the idaho legislature
one long to be remembered because of
its devotion 10 its duties, the prompt
ness with which its work was done,
and the beneficial effects of its labors.

supreme, and / trust you will look into
the demands of every institution,
whether educational. charitable or
penal, and keep ever in mind not alone
the apparent needs of these institu-
tons. but also the question of how the
taxpayer will meet the demands. Make
the appropriations in accordance with
our ability as we'll as our necessities.
ENLIGHTENMENT OF PUBLIC
FUNDS.
Under the laws Of our state. embeZ-
element of public funds is a felony and
the amount embeZzed may be recov-
cred in civil action, but the statute
of limitations bars the punishment of
such an offense and the recovery of the
amount embezzled after q lapse of
three years. These statutes should be
amended SO that the statute of limita-
tions for the embezzlement of public
funds shall not bar the punishment
thereof, nor the recovery of the amount
embezzled but that the crime may be
punished and action be prosecuted for
recovery no matter how long after the
crime is committed, so long as it may
be proved that the offense actually was
committed
The embezzlement of public funds is
different from other offenses. A pub
lie officer guilty of a violation of a
trust should be punished and the law
should make it clear that the betrayal
of the confidence of the people and the
violation of an oath of office is one
of the crimes for which a man should
receive no consideration by reason of
lapse of time

With tho abundance of money so that

S per cent per annum. While 1t is con-

WOMEN CAN REMEDY EVIL

Mr.. Speer states the conference came
to the conclusion that the chief thing
at fault was public sentiment and that
it rested with the women of the eoun

all speeches and discussions" said Mr..
Speer. was that the most prevalent
excuse for mob violence is protection
of womanhood and that It was up to
the women of America to impress upon
the men of America that the excuse
was a fallacy, that mob violence only
added shame. publicity and disgrace
to the wrongs of womanhood instead
of atoninG for or correcting them.
The deliberations of the conference
came to focus in the adoption of a
set of resolutions to which Mr.. Speer
stated it was hoped the press would
give as much publicity as possible.
They are as follows.
The recent migration of thousands
of negroes from the south to other
sections of the. country. the almost
simultaneous outbreaks of lawlessness
and mob Violence against negroes in
