We, your committee on resolutions,
beg leave to submit the following re-
port for your consideration:
WHEREAS, the North Idaho
Chamber of Commerce is a body rep
resenting the diversified interests of
northern Idaho and as such seeks
the coordination of community effort;
therefore be it
Resolved, That we extend our
hearty cooperation to organizations
of similar character elsewhere in the
state of Idaho;
That the incoming officers of this
organization endeavor to so arrange
for the coming years activities that
it shall be a continuous force in fur
thering the various industries Of the
territory;
That we view with deep concern the
recent manifestations in murder of
that spirit which is abroad in our
land by reign of terror the departure
of great and free people from the
foundation of Liberty and Freedom;
by inhuman and diablical crimes, to
destroy civilization; to end in dark
ness, misery and dispair the history
of the Nation. We call upon all cit
liens to rally to the support of the
authorities to the end that constitu-
tional government shall prevail; that
the sacred lamp of life may not be
threatened, the purity and stability
of home and property rights shall not
be violated, and that any manifesto
tion of the dragons head in this
state may be met with quick and
summary justice.
That inasmuch as the agricultural,
mining, numbering and stock raising
industries, the chief fields of endeav-
or in northern Idaho, are so potent
to the future prosperity of our COM
monwealth, that we pledge this body
to use every endeavor to promote

ric of our industrial and commercial
life must suffer as result and the
peace and comfort of our citizens be
sacrificed. -
That it is the sense of this organ
ization that haphazard road building
is waste of public funds and we
therefore pledge our efforts toward

highway bureau, the forestry depart

to the end that necessary funds may
be obtained for a definite and con-
servative trunk highway program
continuing over a term of years.
That the Northern Idaho Chamber
of Commerce give its hearty endorse

agricultural section, division of traf-

written by Mr.. C. E. Arney and read
at this convention and pledge it's CO.
operation in carrying forward the
plan as outlined
With period of reconstruction
now dawning our state and national
government are wisely looking toward
a movement for the reclamation of
our arid, cut-over and swamp lands
to the end that such may be available
for our returning soldiers and sailors;
therefore we approve any measures
that are taken for the expenditure
of public monies to bring this vast
acreage under cultivation and we
urge our members in congress to use
their best efforts to secure ample
appropriations for such movement and
the judicious distribution of such
monies, and also, we endorse the Uni
ted States employment service and
heartily recommend that congress ap-
sufficient funds to maintain
offices Throughout the country to the
end that employment may be secur-
ed from such agency for those who
seek it.
That the chamber is much impress
ed with the efficiency of the educa-
tional institutions of our state, es-
