thousands OF dollars worth Of trade
from that camp which Il bound to

Welser sleep in their fancied security
we may wake up to find that Baker
has stolen the bone that should
rightly be ours. Are We going to
lie idle and loose that which is ours
by natural right, and which we can
secure to ourselves, beyond the pow

Not All shabby.

Psyette Transcript: The Warrens
state wagon road, we nre reliably IN
formed, Is being pushed along, OF
built, in a very shabby mamie, just
in order to receive the pay allowed on
divisions completed (?).
The above does not, or should not,
apply to the entire road In question,
as that portion situated In Wash
ington county will be looked after by
Mr.. Frank Smith, of Weiser, and
one of the commissioners of the road,
who will demand and compel good
road to be built, or he will cause the
bondsmen of the contractor TO suf-
Ter in consequence. There has been
only that portion of the road from
Mt. Idaho TO Florence accepted and
paid for as yet; and though this por-
ton, with the acceptance of which
Mr. Smith had nothing to do may
zoe shabby" we feel safe in say
ing that II will not all be 80.

A gentleman, whose henri is in

the other day and after ordering the
SIGNAL for year stood watching the
process Of pounding up type for
the paper for a considerable length
of time. Finally he exclaimed,
Tin blamed if you don't earn your
two dollarsr This is the first time
in the course Of our life that we can
remember hearing the opinion ex-
pressed that a newspaper man earned
his money; and the portion of the
business the gentleman in question
saw WAS not one quarter of the labor
required to run simple little country

scriber! Does not the poor news
paper man, toiling at his case day
alter uay, month after month, year

meekly submitting to the abuse and
curses of the public, or portion Of

some OF the fraternity have to wait |

The Local Paper.

--7The tocafnewspaper should be
found in every home. No children
should grow up ignorant who can
be taught to appreciate the home
paper. It IS the stepping stone of
intelligence to all those matters
not to be learned in books. Give
yourchildren a foreign newspaper
which contains not one word about
any person, place4or thing which
they ever saw or perhaps ever
heard of, and how can you expect
Thorn to be interested2 But let
them have the home paper and
read OF persons whom they meet,
and Of places of which they are
familiar, and soon an interest is
awakened which increases with
every daily arrival of the local pa
per. Thus a habit of reading is
formed those children will
read the paper all their lives and
become intelligent men and wo-
men-a credit to their ancestors
strong in their knowledge Of the
world as it is to-day NewDoffin-
ion.

Don't Do 1t, Girls.

ION.

1t is very common, at the pres
ent day, for young ladies to accept
presents from gentlemen not rela-
ted to. them, or likely to become
so-in fact mere acqnaintances.
With no partiality for old customs
we confess admiration for that
feminine delicacy which shrinks
from accepting favors from chance
acquaintance of the day or hour.
That all young men have not the
true feelings of gentlemen, our
young ladies need not be told nor
that those most lavish with their
presents are often as little able to
afford it as they are able to re-
frain from Boosting. that these
presents have been accepted
when among their young male
companions. The cheek of many
innocent girl would crimson with
modification could she hear the
remarks made on this subject
among young men. Don't, do it,
girls; don't accept presents from
a gentleman unless he is an ac-
cepted suffer, or some. old, well
known friend Of the family,
who has proved his claim to be
good for such a proof of your
faith in him. This may be sold
fashioned advice, and yet, you
may live to thank us for it.
