No better fruit is raised anywhere
on this terrestrial ball than right here
'at Oakley. We have enjoyed sam
pies of peaches grown, respectively,
by James F. Devine, J. J. Millard,
!, Sr., and H. e. Allen-samples which
absolutely could not be beaten.
When our valley is capable of pro-
ducing such fruit it should never
be necessary to send outside Cassia
county for peaches, apples or any
other temperate climate fruit AS
it is, one can seldom buy apples IN
the Oakley Aores. More attention
might profitably be given to fruit

BATTLED OVER PIPE ORGAN
Its Introduction Into Scottish Church,
for Which James Watt Was Re-
sponsble, Made Trouble.

The current appreclations Of James
Watt, inventor of the steam engine.
have not, so far rs we have seen, called
forth any protest from the Wee Frees.
Yet Watt was responsible for the
first pipe organ built In Scotland, and
round IL ragged one of the fiercest con-
troversies I'm the history OF the move
ment against instrumental music In
the Scottish church.
The story of the organ itself was
told fully when the instrument was
given a year ago to the Glasgow cor
poration. 1t was built by Watt In his
house In High street In 1862, and In
1907 found its way into st. Andrews
church, Glasgow. On hearing that the
organ was to be played during divine
service. the lord provost of the day
wrote to DR.. Richie. minister OF the
church. and an enthusiastic fiddler.
begging TO know Of him II such was
really the case" and adding that, II
so, he would consider il his duty to
enter solemn protest against him
and the congregation for all damages
which might be the consequence. DIR.
Richie was also held personally re-
sponsble for "any breach OF the peace
which might possibly be occasioned by
the innovation he had attempted 10
introduce"
After being used for one Sunday,
the organ was closed by command of
the Presbytery; and then the floods
Of controversy were let loose. The
friends of music" were forcible, If not
very polite, in a series of pamphlets.
Both sides, Of course, quoted Scripture
freely; and In Presbytery minute the
writer Of the pro-organ pamphlets was
convicted of "culpable inaccuracy and
a scandalous violation Of the truth"
History, so far as we know, does not
record what Watt thought of II all.
The old organ is now the property
of Glasgow corporation and stands in
the Central hall of the Kelven-Grove
galleries.
