Important Uc SHAINWALD BKOR BOISE city mm NAOMI FHXLPS The spring-time suns have stooped to kiss the crown ot snow The sparkling stream their fetters loosed leap to the plains below The green coronel of the Fir waves in each passing breeze And evetide zephyrs sing sweet psalms amid the dark pine trees Oh fairest of tbe mountains horn the emerald robes of spring Array thee for thy bridal morn her flowers from thee ring True emblem of the unity that binds thee in the chair Of State whose glory shall endure while sons remain To guard the boon bequeathed to us by hero's hardly won On whose unblemished scroll appears the names of sire and son From lofty peaks that gnarl the smiling plains below From old storm beat crest crowned with eternal snow From the Queen City of the plains cradled with fragrant bowers Where mountain zephyrs stoop to claim the incense of the flowers From every hamlet hill and vale let ringing cheers proclaim Our victory all the subtle creeds that would our rights defame Or by their treacherous art withhold one star whose radiant light Her sons (where your banner floats) shall hall with proud delight All honor to the loyal hearts that served us at our need Upon whose bright escutcheon we with joyful eyes may read- Integrlty that will not stoop to betray a trust But with the sword of justice lay all foemen in the dust Ileroes have conquored in the strife when carnage led the day And bore the banners of their cause through many a bloody fray But greater hero he that stands with Ann uu flinching zeal Where bought corruption may not blush Its secrets to reveal Still loyal to the people's trust keeps but oue goal in sight The goad of tliosn he and battle for the right Fair oil may thy sons prove grateful in their choice With Senatorial honors crown the loyal Dubois And he who through the conflict stood unwavering by his side Ou whose uuiamished record we may point with honest pride by right Our for who may claim FRIDAY JULY 4 1890

Banner Sulky Kako 'Washington July 1 Special to Salt Lake Tribune The Idaho admission bill passed at 2:80 this afternoon It was taken up Immediately after the morning hour but on account of the numerous interruptions small time was given to its further con sideration It had been expected tha Senator Gray of Delaware would deliver an extended speech against the bill but the expectatioh was not realized Delegate Dubois was early In the Senate in consultation with Senator Platt who had the bill in charge With the excellent judgment which has characterized Senator Platts handling of both the Territorial admission bills he declined to debate the proposition and left the Demo-ocratlc side of the Senate full field for opposition without obstruction Senator Vance of North Carolina made the only extended speech in opposition to the measure He opposed it as a partisan scheme under the cloak of religious philanthropy The Mormons he said are Democrats nearly every one of them and therefore the Republicans disfranchise their enemies in the name of God Senator Vance did not refer to the Supreme court decision upholding the Idaho test oath and at 2 :49 resumed his seat In the meantime Senator Cullom had been called to the chair There was pause(everyone expecting further debate In an instant Senator voice rang out there any amendments to be offered If not the bill will be reported to the Senate and rend for the third time Is the Senate ready for the question In another second the bill was put upon its final passage by a viva voce vote and declared passed without division Delegate Dubois jumped from his seat shook hands cordially with several Senators and rushed excitedly for the tele-graph office to wire the announcement to friends in Idaho The Senate resumed its monotonous drone ns Senator Platt came out and shook hands with the Idaho delegate I had replied to said Senator Piatt debate might have lasted ail day I thought the peoplesfL' Idaho would

Of all the suns that have risen in all the days of all the years that Idaho has waited the one that shines upon this day should he deemed the brightest the scene it shines upon the dearest the rejoicing hosts that view it in Idaho the happiest The old days old desires old failures have passed into oblivion The new ambitions new hopes and new struggles lie all before us to be achieved It will not be strange if to-day those who have waited to see the robes of Statehood donned will be a little bewildered will pause for a little while in the uncertainty Incident to the great changes that have been wrought but when once assured that Statehood Is an accomplished fact and comprehending what a mighty march of progress lies before Idaho people through the coming years will keep step In unison with these who have labored to bring this miracle about It Is fitting that when the people shall gather to-day ta commemorate the occasion when the Declaration of Independence was first given to the world by the Revolutionary fathers and to hear the story of this Nation told again the dead heroes honored and their struggles and sacrifices for the Union recounted that the peoples hearts should glow with he high thought that the old Union is now our Union that it belongs to us and we to it in a stronger clearer sense than ever before We are clothed upon with a dignity never before known We take our place beside the other States by virtue of our right We are welcomed as one of the full grown children beneath the roof tree of the home While it is true that one of the great political parties fought to keep us a Territory we must concede that a host of that party at home did all they could help to make us free Such men as lie Hagan Stevenson and many others should be loyal workers their reward ir bravely d'- forbids to recount the giant efforts of Delegate Dubois and Governor Shoup In the work which success crowned on yesterday as President Harrison laid down the pen whose stroke made us a State Without the power of a vote they compelled the great Congress of a great Nation to pause in Its selfishness and give an ear to the claims of Justice and having heard to grant them to us Honor to whom honor is due There will be thousands of meetings on this day of rejoicing all over the Union but la all the gathered loyaly of all tbe lxnets beneath the waving folds of none will know such joy and hope as those whose fortunes are hence forth to be linked for good or ill for life or death with the new State of Idaho iA nM' Chaplain Reader Rev Pattce Miss Mabel

the Union are quite you will have the thanks of the people ot Idaho for your able management of their Admission Senator Cullom met the Tribune corres poudent in the hall He had a broad grin diffusing itself over his face and laughed good-naturedly as he said do you like me as a presiding officer on a Territorial Admission bill could not have been done better replied your correspondent rapid way in which the bill was finally railroaded through showed the wisdom of the Senate in appointing you chairman of the Inter-state Commerce said the Senator Fred Dehois ia happy and he has reason to be I have known him from boyhood and a more honorable upright energetic and capable young man has never left the State of Illinois The admission of Idaho is very largely a personal success to him lie has worked faithfully and untiringly for the admission of Territory has made friends everywhere both in the House and Senate and has fought such an open and above-board fight that he has compelled admiration even from those who were politically opposed to him It Is a matter of personal gratification to me that I have been able to do something in hastening the final result not only on account of a friend whom I have known from childhood and who is one of the cleanest-cut and ablest Representatives 1 ever saw from the Delegate Dubois' was the center of congratulations this afternoon 31 any members of the House and Senate flocked around him to express their gratification To the Tribune correspondent he said: came so quickly at the close that I hardly knew the child was born Of course I am gratified beyond expression It is tbe end of a long struggle and a hard fight and on that acccount there is a feeing of relief which I can hardly express There will be bonfires and rejoicing In Idaho to-night but there will be no one who will be so happy and gratified as myself I shall see the President and ask him on behalf of the people of Idaho to sign the bill on the Fourth of July the anniversary of American independence and a date which tf he agrees to my wishes will be doubly celebrated for years to come In the Territory soon to be-come a State which I feel honored In AT THE

Hays Have boen established in for tlie past sixteen years Particular attention lniil Watches Clocks and Jewelry Afternoon Amusements It Is hoped that the Senate will pass the Idaho admission bill promptly and that the president will sign the act before the Fourth of July so that the people may be able to celebrate not only the anniversary of the birth of the republic but also their admission as a sovereign State into that republic President Harrison will probably think of this and sign the bill either on the 8d or the morning of the4tb It would be still better if he would sign it two or three days before tbe 4th Then more of the people of the new State would learn the news If Idaho becomes a State in time the celebration at Wallace and other Idaho towns will be well worth attending When General Pemberton was negotiating for the capitulation of Vicksburg to the forces under General Grant some of his officers objected to the idea of surrendering the city upon the Fourth of July Gen Pemberton Insisted however claiming that by capitulating on that day he could get better terms from Grant who would naturally desire that so Important a victory should be consummated on that above
