Be NE|GHBORS SAYS
JENKINS AT MEETING
is EMPHATIC ON QUESTIONS
OUR DUTY TO SELVES AND
STATE OF IDAHO.

"Twenty years ago. said Francis
Jenkins, dean of men at the Univer-
sity of Idaho to the chamber of COM
merce from Genesee and Lewiston al
the meeting with the Moscow cham
Der in Lindley hall last night, "Joe
Kincaird was one of us at the univer-
sity. There are two rivers in Lewis
ton and we wish here in Moscow we
had one of them. A farmer went in
to his orchard to load apples and 1t
began to rain. He went out with a
load on his wagon and the wheels
began to sink in the soft earth. Up
the hill the apples began to roll off
and when he looked around he ex-
claimed he was stuck. That is just
our position. We are stuck in the
mud. Joe Kincard told at length how
he stuck in the mud. A farmer negli-
gent and careless, borrowed tools so
often of a brother farmer it made
the latter tired. We must not borrow
plow from our neighbor. Idaho
wants to borrow piece of road in
Washington. If you want it, says
Washington, improve it. And Wash
ington is right in making the state
ment.
Washington will not improve this
road herself She wants Idaho to do
it. She will not improve it this year
and say probably she will not improve
it next year. In short Idaho is to
plead with Whitman county to build
a road connection that will benefit
Washington. AS matter of fact we
have only mile to build to make an
All-Idaho route. The cost has been
stated. We should have pride in our
own community. We should not over
look the exact situation. The build
ing of this missing link would bring
us to Genesee and brings us all closer
together. This is like nations COM
bining for common benefits. But how
ridiculous it would be for one nation
to borrow navy of another. So it is
with this piece of road in Washington.
We call on Whitman county to build
it and they say build it yourself. We
ought not to depend on WASHINGTON.
We must have state as we'll as local
pride, and place our ewn road in Ida
no. AS it is the detour makes the
distance greater But we cannot
blame Whitman county for it's own
point of view.
''The best thing to do is to make
more neighborly. If the
highway districts cannot furnish the
let's hustle We, the people
of Moscow, raised the money for COM
pletion of unfinished building at the
University, and $4,000 was raised
by the people of Moscow.
We will begin work on this building,
Monday. Lindley hall was built by
Moscow citizens. 1t is home for the
boys. We have GOOD times together
with the boys This is cooperation.
We can get the districts by co-ornra-
tion. It is just as important to them
as to us to have this road built Sc
attle has helped Lewiston to build the
Lolo pass highway Help yourselves
and you help others"
In his conclusion Dean Jenkins said
The tourist trade was an important
factor to Genesee, Lewiston and Mos
cow as we'll as to all Idaho. He ap-
oealed to their common pride and to
he pride of the state and not to i'm
prove the state of Washington. He
vas given an ovation for his address.

COMMISSIONER MIX A
BOOSTER ON PROJECT
OUTLINES WORK OF COMMERCE
MEN ON MISSING LINK-A
TRIBUTE BY HAGAN.

! A splendid exposition of the rights
of Idaho to build the link connecting
for an All-Idaho route as against the
maintenance of the present bone of
contention on the Washington line in
Whitman county frightened and
beautified the meeting and reception
and banquet given in Lindley hall to
the visiting chambers of commerce
from Genesee and Lewiston by the
Moscow citizens and chamber of COM
merce last night The members of
the University faculty co-operated.
The speeches, given at length in these
columns, were incentives to patriot
ism, the spreading Of good fellowship,
and the augmentation of publicity
campaign for the torist trade. The
ladies came in for vote of thanks
for the service they gave. Many
volunteer young ladies helped to make
the guests feel at home.
President Hagan in his opening adj
dress, after the audience had sung
America" accompanied by the IA
nous Moose band Of Lewiston, ex-
planned the objects and aims of the
combined meeting. He made feel
ing address of welcome to the visiting
members and their ladies. He showed
how the citizens Of Moscow subscribed
$107, 900 for the building of Lindley
hail. This hall, he added, was to give
the students home. The building
was erected in 80 days. Moscow took
civic pride in this undertaking He
outlined why the missing Link" had
taken hold of the people of Genesee
and Lewiston and Moscow in spirit
that reflected the impulses that made
the Moscow people build Lindley hall.
He again bade the ladies and gentle
men welcome, and called on Commits
sioner G. P. Mix to explain the work
accomplished
Mr.. Mix, who spoke for Messrs
Monshek and Harries the committee
on the missing Link" used map to
illstrate his pointers, which map had
been prepared by Engineer Van Ars-
dol. He showed that travellers had to I
switch onto the Washington half mile.
They wanted to do away with this
road At no time had Washington
state attempted to get this half mile I
put in order. The Whitman county
highway commissioners had been full
Of promises to Genesee. They would
not do anything this year and had
said probably next year. The map
giving road thru the canyon would
shorten the distance one mile, gener-
ally to Lewiston and would only cost
$4,000 the sum usually placed for
such a project.
This road, he explained, would not
interfere with the Washington road.
The upkeep by Washington on their
road was the bone Of contention. 1t
would mean Idaho would have to spend
money out of her natural system of
roads. In vigorous language, he ,
showed that delay after delay of (
highway commissioners
and while the committee made no
he stated emphatic
ally that the people of Idaho wanted :
an All-Idaho route on the north and {
south highway systems, the missing '
ink" He urged that as Genesee and
Lewiston wanted it, Moscow had fall
en- in line, for what benefited one
would benefit all.
The remainder of the speeches can ,
oe found in another column under \
heir respective heads. i
