Eoise Democrat, follow:
! From the Boise Democrat Of Febru-
airy 23rd, 1896:
! Governor Mcconnell, who with the
governors of two or three other states
was invited and attended banquet
given at Portland on the anniversary
of the birth of Lincoln, made a speech
which the Democrat believes plenty
good enough to publish. 1t appeared
in the Oregonian, and is as follows.
In responding to the toast The
State of Idaho" Governor Mcconnell
of that state said: Il feel that the
invitation to be present at this ban
quet and respond to the toast The
State of Idaho was rendered not as
a compliment to an individual, but
as an evidence of the esteem in which
you hold the people of the common

which sweep with relentless fury the
sliyering hamlets of Nebraska and
the Dakotas; protected by the noun

portrayed by no less a person than
Otis Skinner himself. 1t is a safe
prediction that the staggering,

when old plays are discussed, his
memory will be green.
On the stage Hail made an instan-

played; the screen version will do
that and more, for, on the screen

IDAH0'S GOVERNOR
LAUOtO A. LINCOLN
w. J. MCCONNELL, OF MOSCOW,
DELIVERED ADDRESS TWENTY
FIVE YEARS AGO.

February II, 1886, William j. Nc
Cornell, then governor of Idaho, was
guest at banquet in Portland
Oregon, the occasion being the cele-
bratiOn of Lincoln's birthday Gov
ernor Mcconnell delivered an address
at that time which will be of interest
at this time, quarter OF a century
later, as it showed his unbounded
since that time have shown that the
faith was well founded.
Governor McConnells address at
that time was so good that The
Oregonian published it the next day
and it was republished in the Boise
Democrat, of February 90, 1896 Re-
Gently Governor Mcconnell, whose
home is in Moscow, the city he did
more than probably any other indi-
yidual to make what it is today, was
invited to go to Boise to deliver the
principal address at Lincoln day
banquet there, but was forced to de-
cline the invitation. His letter de-
clining the invitation to speak, is here
given:
Mr.. John w. Eagleson,
Boise, Idaho.
My dear Eagleson:
1T was with deep regret that |
found myself SO circumstanced that
it was impossible for me to accept the
very kind invitation of yourself and
committee to be present and make a
few remarks at the banquet which is
to be given at Boise in commemor-
alton of the birth of Abraham Lincoln.
Please express my regret to those
who are present at that gathering.
You will have with you a few of those
who were active participants in the
affairs of our common country dur
ing the life and service of Abraham
Lincoln their faltering lips may not
be equal to give expression to what
they feel on that occasion, but their
loyal American hearts will go out in
gratitude to Him "who doeth all
things WE'LL" that the sacrifice was
not in vain; that We are today a unit
ed people, living, and if need be, fight
ing under one flag; the stars and
stripes.
''Firmness, tempered by kindness,
was a dominant trait Of Lincoln's
character; his heart went out to all,
to man, to beast to bird, to flower, to
all that God has made. You do we'll
to commemorate the anniversary of his

OTIS SKINNER APPEARS
IN FAMOUS "KISMET'' ROLE

In all the length and breadth of
fiction there is no more picturesque
a character than Hail, the beggar Of
Bagdad. Edward Knobloek, the play
wright, made Hail famous m the
stage version of "Kismet," and Otis
Skinner, perhaps the best known and
most popular actor in the country
immortalized Hail during the years he
gave life to this Characterization on
the stage.

Effects Of Constipation.

Constipation causes a stoppage of
the sewerage system Of the body. The
poisonous refuse matter that should
be carried away is retained in the sys-
TEN and often poisons the blood and
causes numerous disorders. No one
can afford to neglect his bowels. A
dose of Chamber1ain's Tablets will
afford relief Avoid drastic cath
artics as they take too much water out
of the system and their use is likely
to be followed by constipation. F
