were the only team to depend on their
teamwork.
Saturday afternoon the Kennewick
athletes were defeated by the Cash
mere quintet 1910. The home boys
were unable to cage the winning shots
while Cashmere basketballers were
accurate in their tossing. In the An
al moments Of play, the winners by
a massed play preceded by stalling,
were able to shoot four baskets. Wal
ter Henry Of Cashmere was the out
standing star among his comrades,
while the home boys again depended
on fast team work.
Altho having won from the Column
bia College girls 12-4 in q game at
Milton the local girls were easily de-
feated 22-6 on the home floor. The
visitors played excellent team work
and guarded closely allowing but two
baskets for the locals. This team has
been defeated but once and that by
the local girls.

stroyers involved were reported total

injured were brought to the Santa
Barbara county hospital here.

MOORE EAV0RS 4-YEAR
TERMS AT STATE HOUSE

al am heartily in favor with
limited sessions for state legislature, -
said Governor G. c. Moore, Saturday,
at Boise, commenting on press dis
patches giving the opinions of several
governors on the question.
" Not only am l in favor of limit
ing the sessions but [ think steps
should be taken to remould our leg
islative and executive procedures.
think all state officers, legisla-
tors included, should be elected for q
four-year period and that the legis-
lature should meet for not more than
40 days at the end of the first two
years of the administration.
This would give those elected to
Legislative offices an opportunity to
study the needs of a state government,
then come to the Legislature and take
speedy and intelligent action on prob
lens confronting the state. AS it is
now, a considerable part of the time
is spent by the legislature getting ac-
quainted with new state officials, if
they happen to be new, and learning
what a state government does
81 think also, there is too much
representation in our present system,
too many representatives. These
should be reduced in number. Our
senator's, of course, are determined
by the number of counties, yet for
state whose wealth is no greater than
Idaho's, we have too many county
governments to support"

CONSTITUTION DAY
136TH ANNIVERSARY OF SIGNING
OF GREAT DOCUMENT-PR
NATION BY GOVERNOR

Declaring that the United States
constitution is the greatest docu-
ment of all the ages, Governor c. c.
Moore Friday issued a proclamation
setting aside September II, 1928, as
Constitution day." 1t was on the
seventeenth day of September, 1876
years ago, that the signers of the
constitution affixed their names to
the guiding document of the American
republic. Governor MooreS procla-
nation follows:
September II, 1928, the one hun
dred and thirty-sixth anniversary of
the signing of the constitution of the
United States of America, the greatest
document of all the ages, insuring re-
preventative government and protect
ing the rights of all people.
While the constitution was born
of the travail of a great war, it was
so correct in it's fundamental guaran-
tees of human rights, so eminently
just and fair to all classes, so clear
in its statement of the great prin-
ciples of right in a representative
form of government, that it has stood
the test of time through the varying
yicissitudes of war and peace, as the
firm bulWark to which all could go
for justice, nearly one and one-half
centuries, with the surprisingly few
number of 19 amendments. Such far
seeing statecraft and wisdom is truly
the marvel of all the world
Preserved With Care
The great document of the con-
stitution has been preserved with
Jealous care by the sturdy men and
women who have gone before. Pre-
c1ouS blood has been shed on the field
OF battle to transmit this heritage
to future generations. Today we have
those who would tear the constitu-
t1on as scrap of paper and those
who would trample the sacred flag
of the country in the dust The at
tention of the great majority of peace
loving people of the nation must be
called to those who, under the guise
of free speech, seek to destroy a gov
ernment which has already given
them every protection and assurance
of freedom
While the constitution guarantees
freedom of action, it does not pro-
tect riot. The right of free speech
as given by the constitution does not
the free speech which in
cites riot and the destruction of pro-
perty. lnsldious propaganda is
abroad in the land, and all real
Americans must unite for the protec-
ton of our free institutions
1t is highly desirous therefore
that the anniversary of the signing of
the constitution be observed in order
that the present generation be
in their faith in this
supreme document, and that the
younger generation be inspired to re-
we're its principles and to live nobly
in it's glory
Now, therefore, I, c. C. Moore,
governor of the state of Idaho, do
hereby proclaim Monday. September
Ii, Constitution day and request /,
that the people of the state of Idaho |
may peruse the constitution of the
United States and that all schools and |
colleges of the state hold appropri- /
ate exercises which will set forth in /
detail the liberties, privileges and .
of this document
