The WEISER SIGNAL.
THURSDAY, APRIL IA, 1892.

"Old Nick, " in last weeks citizen,
presents the opposite side Of the case
in road matters in an open, gentle
manly manner that, though one may
disagree with him, certainly COM
mands respect, but in speaking Of
the Mineral road seems TO be of the
impression that the county is asked
to bear the entire expense and sug-
gests that Weiser and Mineral help
out with little money themselves.
This is just exactly what they intend
to do. The county is asked to stand
a portion, only, of the expense.
Weiser is ready to put up money, and
the farmers of the fat have agreed
to give in the neighborhood of $50
days work, men and teams, it being
matter of utmost anxiety to them
to secure thoroughfare over which
to haul produce to the camp, which
would give them considerable Of a
cash market, and, taken in connection
with Weiser, enable them to dispose
of about all they could raise. 1t GER
tainly is hard to believe that farmers
of one part of the county have, as a
body, any such unneighborly feeling
towards their fellow farmers in another
section that they would deprive the
Inter of market facilities, even if
they cannot themselves conveniently
take advantage of them. And not
only that, but community of some
200 people ask that, as they are taxed
the same as other people and are
compelled to visit the county seat,
they be given way to get there. If the
people Of Indian valley we're com
PEELED to go to Payette and then come
down on the railroad to Wciser, they
would feel a good deal as do the peo-
pie Of Mineral, who have a longer
ride by rail, in addition to paying
ferryage across Snake river.

The SIGNAL says it is news if the
democrats and republicans Of Weiser
intend fusing on county ticket this
fall. Go away from home to learn
the news, Bro, the same as we do.
Citizen.
Yes, and a piece Of news which
there is nothing to verify. If there
is any fusing, indications point that
it will be between the democrats and
the alliance, but there has not as vet
been much political enthusiasm
evinced in any direction.
The Weiser signal. [volume] (Weiser, Idaho) 1890-1904, 1892-04-14


This paper is not one iota more in
favor Of a road to Mineral than it is
of any other needed road in this
county and the fair and Justly in
clined person will not say to the con
trary. We are the champion chow
ever humble) Of whatever we are con-
WINGED will benefit reasonable
number OF citizens and tax payers.
Though Weiser cannot be other than
vitality interested in road to Mineral,
and though we live in Weiser, we
would put forth no greater effort in
its behalf than in behalf of road
from Council to Seven Devils, that
long needed bridge on Crane creek,
more direct road from Crane to
Weiser, a new road from Weiser to
Salubria or any other improvement.
OF course when these things are pro-
jected we are confronted by the fact
that the county is considerably in
debt and that we have no money to
make these improvements, but there
is saying that 'where there is n
will there is way" Let us first get
the will then cast about for way.
Instead of being overwhelmed with
sense that the fates are against us and
it is useless to contend against them,
or being appalled, at the immensely
of the undertaking, let us assert our
will and say ''we cannot do without
these things, we must have them.
We must not be Respondent until we
have tried every means in our power
If, utter all efforts to overcome the
obstacles in the road, we find that no
plan can be adopted but what will
swamp us, then we must certainly
resign ourselves to fate, for none of
us desire to be swamped

The farmers alliance in Grant
county, Oregon, have expressed
themselves in favor of extensive
building and repairing of bridges
and roads. If the alliance of Wash
ington county puts a ticket in the
field next fall, which we have no
doubt they will do, they should by
all means have that grand plank in
their county platform. In fact, no
party engaging in the coming cam
paign should fail TO express itself on
this question, which to-day is of more
Importance to the interests Of Wash
ington county than any other. Let
our officers be elected ON no platform
but that of good roads.

Rich without Money.

Many man is rich without money.
Thousands of mep with nothing IN
their pockets, and thousands without
even pocket, are rich. A man born
with a good sound constitution, good
stomach, a good heart and good limbs,
a pretty, good head piece, is rich.
Good bones are better than gold, tough
muscles than silver, and nerves that
fash fire and carry energy to every
function are better than houses and
land. 1t is better than landed es-
tate to have the right kind of father
and mother. Good breeds and bad
breeds exist among men as really as
among herbs and horses. Education
may do much to cheek evil tendencies
or to develop good ones, but it is a
great thing to inherit the right pro-
portion of faculties to start with. The
man is rich who has good disposition,
who is naturally kind, patient. cheer
full, hopeful, and who has favor OF
wit and fun in his composition. The
hardest thing to get on with in this
life is a mans own self. A cross, self.
ish fellow, a Respondent and complain
ing fellow, timid and careburdsned
man, these are all born deformed on
the inside. They do not limp, but

what Nreerschaum Is.

4
There is very general impression
in the minds ofsmokers that the meer.
schaum part Of the pipe which they
treasure SO carefully and take 50 much
pride and satisfaction in coloring |"
is compressed sea foam. Such, how
ever, is not the case. The German
word meerschaum means in English
foam Of the sea, but its formation has
nothing to do with, the sea, It is a
kind Of clay, comes out Of mines like
coal and is found only in Turkey.
The artist who carves meerschaum is
required to pass through as severe a
school of apprenticeship, lasting from
three to ten years, as though his work
were in marble.
Meerschaum carved and in the
| rough resembles the ordinary plaster
cast. The outlines being complete, it
is scraped with knife, fled, soaked
in a preparation, and then polished
with a linen cloth. The color of fmeer'
schaum has nothing to do with the
quality and ranges from pure white to
a light yellow or a blush white. The
practice sometimes INDUCED in by
smokers of soaking meerschaum in
hot water, milk, or steaming it, is al-
together wrong. Itspoils the meer-
schaum and ruins the color.-Chicago

Babies.

A baby is born at every beat of the
human heart. That is more than one
for every tick of the clock. These
living jewels /" Gas the poets call
babies) dropped unstained from
heaven" take wings and fly back
whence they came one for every min
ute of the day. From January l. to
December 81 between 58,0O0,0O0 and
40, 10000 living jewels are dropped
into this cold world.
There are more baby girls than boy
babies. The proportion Of female
births to male births is as 100 to 80.
So that between 100000 to 3,000,-
900 more girls are born in the world
each year than boys. There is always
q surplus of women, and the extra
number of girl babies keeps up the
supply.
The rate of infant mortality is
enormous. In round numbers, 5000
600 babies never live long enough to
talk, 100000 more never have n
chance to walk or run and 100000
more never get old enough to go to
school.-Baby.
