KEYNOTE SPEEGH
(Continued from Page Seven.;
but from the knowledge I hnve gained
through hard experience during the
many" yea rilii wmVh, under many and
Tailed conditions, I have striven and
toik-U with luen. I believe Ui a larger
use of the governmental power to help
remedy industrial wrongs because it
bns been borne In on me by actual ex
perience that without the exorcise of
such power many cf the wrongs will
go unremedied. I believe In a larger
opportunity for the people themselves
directly to participate Id government
and to control their governmental
agents, because long experience has
taught me that without such control
many of tbelr agents will represent
them badly. By actual experience In
office I have found that, as a rule, I
could secure the triumph of the causes
In which I most believed, not from the
politicians and the men who claim an
exceptional right to speak In business
and government, but by going over
their beads and appealing directly to
the people themselves,
irI am not under the slightest delusion
as to any power that during my polit
ical career I have at any time possessed.
Whutever of power I at any time bad
I obtained from the people. I could
exercise it only ao long as and to the
extent thnt the people not merely be
lieved in me, but heartily backed me
up. Whatever I did an president I was
able to do only because I bad the back
ing of the people Wbea on any point
jljjlj hot hnve that backing, when on
any point I differed from the people, it
mattered not whether I was right or
whether I was wrong, my power van-)
irhed. I tried my best to lead the peo-
pie, to advise them, to tell them what J
iIth'j;:r'it was. right; If necessary I
'';":.. Vo.ii.ued to tell them what I
thought they ought to hear, even though
It would lie unpleasant for them to
hear it, but I recognized that my task i
was t,o try to lead them nnd not to !
drive them, to take them into my confi
dence, to try to show them that I was
right nnd then loyally and lu pood fullb
to accept their decision. I will do any
thing for the people except what my (
conscience tells nie is wrong, nnd that ,
I cau do for no man and no set of men. j
I hold that n man cannot serve the
people well unless he serves his con
science, but I hold nlso that where his
conscience bids lihn refuse to do what
the people desire he should not try to !
continue In ollice against their will.
Our government system should be fo
he cannot conscientiously carry out
the wishes if the people, shall at their
desire leave his office and not misrep-
resent them In office, and I hold that '
the puhlle servant can by so doing liet-
ter than In any other way serve both
the") and his conscience.
"Surely there never was n fight better
worth making than the one in which
we are engaged. It little matters what
befalls any one of us who for the time

that if we can wake the people to what
the fight really means we nIiiiII win.
Rut, win or lose, we shall not falter.
Whatever fate may at the moment

Fans Expected to Patronize Games
More Liberally ThU Meek.
"Dad" Olinlin. whom La Grande
fans know as the big centerfielder for
Boise a man with touches of gray
hair in bis forelocks and 12 players
hopped off the rattler shortly after
midnight !hl. morning and have been
taking measurements of the town pre
paratory to appearing on the home
stead across the track this afternoon.
"Dad" has a great bunch of ball play
era and they seem to have hit tbelr
gait. They are still within striking
distance of tbe bunting and claim that
the next two weeks will tell the tale
for them. All they want Is for Pen
dleton to take tbe measurement of tbe
Bears this week and tbe Pippins next
week then they will do the refit. That
Is tbe way Dad looks at It.
Of course, La Grande will get a
chance to see the wonderful Mays
work this week and he Is familiar,
but the bugs are also anxious to get
a glimpse at the rest of the pitching
staff Glmlln has recruited and it cer
tainly Is some staff.
That La Grande should contribute
liberal gate money this week Is the
concensus of opinion. The fans
haven't seen big ball for many a day
now and Boise has been here but
once before so win or lose, La Grande
fans should contribute this week If
they ever expect to. The burden of
the expense account has been falling
on the real promoters the business
men while the fans have been buy
with the anvil choruB and stay al
home. Ninety-five per cent, of the
knockers don't go near the games and
never have they think because La
Grande Is not leading the pennai i
that she has not been playing ha; I
worlh the money charged at the gale
Albeit, the weather is conducive to
good attendances and that the wee
will break records Is generally deem
ed to be likely.

M. F. Davis of I inon is one oi

Denver, Colo., Aug. 6 Charged with I
the duty of legislating for the frater
nal interests of nearly three quarters
of a million members, the supreme
lodge of the Knights of Pythias as- i
sembled for its biennial meeting here j
today and will continue in session j
about ten days.
The meeting promises to be the
most important ever held by the gov
erning body of the order. Much in
terest centers around the general elec
tion Thursday. It is conceded that
the nresent supreme vice-chancellor.
Thomas J. Carling of Macon, Ga., will
be elevated to the office of supreme
chancellor in succession to George
M. Hanson of Maine. The principal
contest will be for the office of su
preme vice chancellor for which there
are five candidates; Benjamin I. Sal
inger of Iowa: B. S. Young of Ohio,
William Ladew of New York, Charles
S. Davis of Colorado and John J. ;
Brown of Illinois. ,
A number of Important legislative i
matters will come before tbe supreme 1
lodge for consideration and action.
Some minor changes in the ritual will
probably be made and action will be
taken on proposals to reduce the age
limit for members from 21 to land,
to extend the order into foreign lands.
The grand lodge of Ontario, Manitoba
and British Colulmba have asked that
the order be extended to the 'mother
country," and It is probable that the
request will be granted. i
Another topic that will engage the;
attention of the supreme lodge will be
Pythian Education," the extension
of the knowledge of Pythian knight-'
hood and Its work. Supreme Chancel
lor Hanson will .speak at length on
this subject and it is expected thn; I
the body will give much thoughtful I
consideration to the plans proposed.
The meeting will discuss prelimi-.
nary plans for the proper observance '
of the golden Jubilee of the order two
years hence. It is proposed that-tnel
anniversary shall be celebrated with 1
a great meeting of the membership
in Washington, D. C, where tbe first
lodee of the order was instituted Feb-1
ruary 19, 1804, by Justus H. Rathbonc i
and about a dozen associates. Frou-. :
this modest beginning the Knlghti of
Pythias has increased Its membership ,
to a total of 711.000, distributed anion
:cia'. heists In all parts of th . I
I'nited States and Canada and In Mex- i
ico, China. Cuba, Hawaii, Panama j
and the Philippines.
