First Sermon
at Fort Hall
Commemorated

About two hundred people from
Pocatello and other places met at old
Fort Hall on Tuesday, the 9th of
July, to commemorate the beginning
of civilization there eighty-six years
ago that day. At that time the Rev.
Jason Lee, a Methodist missionary,
preached the first sermon west of
the Rocky mountains.
The Rev. J. D. Gillian and his
wife and E. A. Doud went out from
Blackfoot in company with Mrs. J..
0. Morgan and her daughter. They
went via Tilden bridge and found
the road very good all the way.
DR.. Minnie Howard of Pocatello
was master of ceremonies, and was
assisted by Professor Walter Siders,
J. N. Ireland, the Rev. Mr.. Cleave
and some Boy Scouts.
MIR. Ireland told of some events
of long ago, including his work Of
removing the adobes from the aban-
doned walls of the fort and making
the stage station at what is now
known as the Adobes.
The meeting was held at 8 o'clock
and refreshments followed.

Having acquiesced in the use of
my name in connection with the SEN
atorship, it is perhaps proper that
make a., statement relative to my
attitude toward some of the prob
lens which now present themselves
for solution.
BY virtue of our diversified re-
sources, our system of government,
and the tireless energy of our peo-
pie, this country has arisen to place
of pre-eminence in the affairs of
the world. We have during recent
years loaned to the troubled ma
tions of Europe money aggregating
more than three times the cost of
the civil war. Our military forces
have contributed largely in restrain
ing the oprressors of humanity and
in bringing to their knees the might
est and most heartless monarchs the
world has ever known. Our COM
merce reaches every market in CIV
ilization, and our agricultural re-
sources are the hope of the starv-
ing multitudes of all Europe.
Emerging as we are from the hor-
rible nightmare of world war, new
and serious conditions confront us.
No problem, however, is more form
idable in its nature than that of pre-
serving to posterity the principles
of a free government such as our
fathers have bekueathed u.s. Should
the American civilization decline, it
is quite probable that it would carry
down with it the civilization of the
world.
These conditions admit of no petty
politics, no element Of personal ag-
grandizement, no faltering in as
suming the burdens which Omnipo-
tence has placed upon us. With re-
newed courage we must go forward
and assure to not only the prosper
GUS but to the humblest citizens of
our land as we'll a full measure of
freedom and opportunity.
The affairs of the United States
have grown to such vast proportions
that no one man can grasp the mag
nitude of our many and diversified
problems. 1t requires the concerted
effort of a large number of the
country's most experienced and ca
pable advisers to sustain the weight
of our political power, to preserve
the principles Of our government
and properly to direct the industrial
progress of our people.
The United States senate occu-
pies peculiar position in the work
of perpetuating the principles of a
free government. The membership
of the house Of representatives in
creases with the growth of the popu-
lous centers Of the already power

Lul eastern states, and these mem
bers are naturally prone to promote
the commercial interests of their
own particular districts. The fran
ers of our constitution in order to
safeguard the rights of the weaker
states wisely provided that every
state in the union should have equal
representation in the senate. That
body has therefore become the ar
bitter of not only the constitutional
rights of our citizens, but, in meas
ure at least, of the commercial and
political disputes of the entire world.
I would, moreover, emphasize the
fact that while it is the bulwark
of human freedom, it is likewise the
one great political power destined
to protect mankind against the en-
croachment of human greed in what
ever form it may present itself.
No civilization can rise higher
than the general agricultural condi-
tions which sustain it. This indus
try is the bedrock of military, COM
mercial and political supremacy In
promoting the agricultural resourc-
es of the country, we stimulate and
nourish every element that enters
into and becomes prominent factor
in our national strength and securi-
ty. To stand idly by and witness
the despoilation of the nations food
supply by the concerted operation
of profiteers, is to give silent con-
sent to the permanent injury of the
very foundation of the worlds great
est achievement in representative
government.
Should the people of Idaho select
me to represent them in the senate,
it will be my purpose to continue the
general character of work in which
I have been engaged during my term
as state commissioner of agriculture
That is to say, I shall seek place
on the agricultural committee of
that body and specialize on the i'm
perative necessity of establishing
and maintaining free and unre-
stricted market for the producer and
employ the power of that office in
bringing before the bar of justice
any commercial organizations which
may have been heretofore or are
now engaged in despoiling it. /
know of no better way to promote
good citizenship, stimulate a more
hearty respect for our government
and make possible general prosper
ity than to stand for the encourage
ment and success of those who pro-
duce the wealth.
l understand, of course, that our
diversified industries and interests
as whole make up the wealth and
power of the state, and all should
be encouraged and fostered, and I
shall assist in this work, but I stress
the agricultural interests because it
is the basic interest and without its
success, now imperiled, we cannot
be prosperous and happy people.

sulting with local nonpartisans and

IN EARTHQUAKE

A former Blackfoot lady writing
from Los Angeles says they do not
have any weather there. 1t Is all
climate. When there is an earth
quake the newspapers do not say
much if any thing about it. They
had some vibrations there recent
ly and the fronts fell off of some
of the business blocks and goods fell
off the shelves. A good many wom-
en- in the stores tainted at the strange
rearing and bulging of the land
scape, and most Of those who did
not faint had a queer jerk in the
knees and went down in heaps.
There was a commotion all right,
and hotels that had been turning
away people for want of room inn
mediately had rooms to let because
guests would not stay.
