Frank Steunenberg
Governor of Idaho1897-1900
When in 1899 organized
lawlessness challenged the
power of Idaho, he upheld the
dignity of the State, enforced
its authority and restored
within its boundaries, for
which he was assassinated in 1905.
"Rugged in body, resolute in mind,
massive in the strength of his
convictions, he was of the granite
hewn." In grateful memory of
his courageous devotion to public
duty, the people of Idaho
have erected this monument.
