THE FUNERAL OF AN UNKNOWN
SOLDIER

Well, thank God, they have
found one man not discredited by
the war or it's aftermath. They
are burying him at Arlington to-
day, and it is entirely appropriate
that all the dignitarles should
turn out for his funeral; for it is
quite certain that none of the
great men who follow his corpse
as long as it is above ground
has reputation as stainless as
the unknown soldier. None of
the catastrophes that followed
the cessation of hostilities can be
laid to his charge. None of the
lamentable defeats, the failures
and the treasons of peace were
his fault. He died in line of duty,
and his renown is unspotted.
1t is a magnificent cortege that
will follow the unknown soldier
to his tomb today. The cere-
mony will beas impressive as the
genius Of this people knows how
to make it. A General of the
Army will be chief pall-bearer,
assisted by general officers of
lesser rank and flag officers of
the navy. The coffin will actual
" be borne by six heroes whose
valor has received the grateful
recognition Of the nation, as at
tested by the stars and crosses
on their breasts. The chief
mourner will be the President of
the United States, and with him |
will be great judges and law
makers from the other two
branches of the government; and
the mourners will be the
,ale and haggard man who was
'0mmander-in-chief when the i
Unknown soldier died. The gen. |

TWINS

Idaho is rapidly becoming the twin
state'' with some signs of changing
into the ftriplet state" The federal
and supreme courts are leading the
way, with their triple headquarters
north, southwest and southeast. We
have already two colleges at Moscow
and Pocatello; two insane asylums,
at Blackfoot and Orofino;. two state
fairs, at Boise and Lewiston; two
state normal schools at Alboin and
Lewiston, and even two proposed tu-
berculosis hospitals at Standpoint and
Payette.
For many years, whenever a new
tax-eating scheme was propose, those
in charge realized it would be q lot
easier to put it over If the plan were
doubled. The new idea is to triple
the scheme, and the state fair Is re-
cent example. To make 1t easier to
carry a state appropriation. third
fair is now proposed.
Politically, things are so much cas-
Ter to work when all sections of a
state are pacified. The same thing is
true Of counties When our Senator
sGooding wanted county seat in his
town he found that 1t would be diff
ficult to divide the little county OF
Lincoln i'm to two parts but very easy
to make three counties of it, which
was done, leaving Lincoln county
about 5000 Of the 10000 population
now in the boundary Of the old coun-
ty.
Such method, while effective, po-
litically, is expensive to the state.
Idaho is in population the size of a
second class American city like Mil
waukee. In wealth it is probably in
ferior Il. cannot afford ali the lux.
uries OF eastern states; certainly II

PARISNOTES

Paris, Ida, Feb. Funeral serv-
ices were held here in the second
ward hall Monday morning at IL
o'clock. for John ]. Humphreys, one
Of the original pioneers and highly
esteemed and honored men of the val
ley. Death occurred at his home on
Friday afternoon. Pneumonia was the
the cause Of his death. The stake
choir was assisted by Adelina H.
Spencer and Alfred Shepherd as SOLO
lists in furnishing the music. Profuse
floral offering covered the casket. In
terment was in the Paris cemetery.
John ]. Humphreys was born 81
years ago in Mansfield, England. At
the age Of Is years he joined the
Mormon Church, and In 1853 came
to America. He worked in st. Louis
for over three years. Here his faith
er's death left the care of large

remains to Salt Lake City by OK team
In 1860 he travelled to California as
q teamster for VIM. Huntington. At
ter his return he rented farm in
Springville. Here he married Miss
Mary Smith with whom he moved to
Paris In 1864. Here he proved him
self a pillar OF strength during the
utmost of the pioneer vicissitudes.
and established himself firmly as an
influence foE betterment of every
sort.
Basket Ball
One of the greatest treats the bas-
ket ball fans of the vicinity have en-
1oyed for a long time, was the game
played Thursday night in the Emer-
son gymnasium, between the Paris
athletic association five and the Au-
burn All Stars. The game showed the
keenest fighting of the season, not
showing dull or slow moment thru
out. Within eight minutes of the fin
ish the score stood even. A few fast
baskets by the Paris team ran the
score upto 1928 in favor of the To-
Gals at the whistles blowing. A spe-
cial train from Montpelier brought a
large crowd and ran the attendance
up to well over 800. The greatest
enthusiasm and rivalry was shown
by the rooters thruout the game.
The local fans are especially enthu-
siastic in view of the fact that this
is SO far Auburn's only defeat out of
fourteen games.
The monthly priesthood and Off
GERS meeting Of the stake was held
here Saturday. Perhaps the largest
attendance of the season was record
ed.
