The Death Of Mayor Harrison.

The well.aimed bullet OF another
Guiteau has poured out the life blood
OF an honured and beloved man. The
killing Of Mayor Carter Harrison, of
Chicago, BY the murderous crank,
Prcndergast, has brought deep grief to
the city and to the nation. The sud.
den and startling murder tells how
insecure is the hold upon life with
such cranks turned loose upon the
land.
Here was a man the most honored
OF all men in the city--a man high IN
the esteem of his fellow men and safe
and secure, as he believed, in the af-
fection of his people, man unsus-
picious and who trusted men and
feared no harm at their hands, shot
down as cruel and unfeeling man
would shoot dog without proyoca-
tion or cause more than an imaginary
wrong, purely imaginary. Let the
fate of Guiteau be the fate of this
murderer, and, while his death pun
ishment will not bring back to life
the innocent and honored dead, it
may stop at least one bloody hand
from taking another innocent life.

WhGt are We Going to DO about n

What are We Going to DO About 10
One Of most perplexing questions
worrying Blackfoot pleasure seekers
at this time is What are we going
to do for social and home amusements
this winter? And the answering echo
to the question repeats again and
again What? What?
Some pessimistically inclined say
TO Nothing, the times are too
hard to talk of entertainments and
amusements. If we keep the cayote
from the door we will do we'll.
Some dispondingly say to us-"We
don't see that we can do anything.
We haven't got the material to do
with, and without that we can do moth
ing" Some sympathetically say "Oh
my, it's a pity, I'm SO sorry, but |
don't see what can be done, | wish
there was some way out Of 1t, | would
be too glad.
"And some following in the rear
say call right; anything you 60
ahead; suggest anything and | will do
my part. You lead and I'll follow,
but don't want TO lead" That is the
situation and the discouraging talk
about the situation.
But The News understands the stu
alton better than that 1t knows that
we must have amusements for our
young people and for old ones too,
and that we can have them If we will
Where there is a will there is a way.
The W. C. 7, T. are not disbanded;
they can get up an interesting enter
talnment whenever they get together
for that kind Of work. They have been
before the public time and again and
no one has ever cried to them
enough, stop.
Where are our men who are accus-
toned to speak in public. Why not
have a course Of lectures from them
on the popular topics of the day.
Where is our dramatic talent? Why
not call it to the stage again. We
have had good plays by home talent
in Blackfoot; we can have them again.
Where is our Glee club, our musical
talent. No we are not lacking in
material We can command the mater
isl for an interesting and varied pro
gramme for series of entertainments
for the young especially. They will
cheer the old people; they benefit the
young. For the winter OF hard times,
if hard they be, let us, in a proper way,
make most of the life before us. Let
us turn the dark side of the picture to
the wall. Let us note the hours that
shine.

work to have them converted into
farms by industrious and enterprising
home seekers ana when we do this we
shall have prosperous times in our
own midst.

The murder of Mayor Harrison
closed the gates Of the Worlds Fair

Mrs. j. w. Jones and daughter
Blanche are at present with friends in
North Carolina. Next week, they will
extend their journey TO Virginia where
they will spend some weeks with rela-
tiyes and friends at Mrs. Jones old
home. They will return to Idaho
Immediately after the holidays
Blackfoot feels the scarcity Of mon
ey keenly but then Blackfoot is not
as bad off as hundreds of other towns.
Think of mining towns with mines
closed and hundreds Of people thrown
out Of employment and with nothing
encouraging in sight.
Hon. L. S. Suydam, of Salmon City,
went TO the Worlds Fair on bridal
tour, and while in the Windy City was
struck by passing express wagon
aud badly bruised and used up. He
ought 70 have expressly made up his
mind to keep himself and bride out Of
the way of express and band wagons.
THE News feels, in common with
other papers Of ;he state, the hard
times and scarcity of money, but not
70 the extent OF damaging loss OF
patronage or TO the necessity Of reduc.
ing its size or space. 1t has always
been our aim to give our readers the
best paper possible, and we believe
they appreciate our efforts for they
generally continue with us. One thing,
we draw no charcoal pictures Of any
body, because they happen to differ
with us on men and measures.

SOUTHERN SENATORS.


A Difference, Financially speaking, between the
Members Of Congress.
There is a wonderful difference be-
tween the Northern and Southern
members Of congress in the way Of
money getting. 1t is patent to all
observers. 1t is true Of the House,
but particularly noticeable in the SEN
ate. In that body men from the
North who san write their checks Tor
six figures are the rule, not the excep-
ton. There is hardly a Senator from
the South who has more than a bare
competence. This is true because
there has been less opportunity to
amass wealth in the South, and the
Senators from that section are past
the middle milestone Of life. With
out exception they belong to the era
when it was the custom to own money
in right of inheritance, not to make
it. They have the brain, are highly
cultivated. are eloquent and sound
logicans, but they r devoid Of the
f.dollar-getting faculty. ~ Washington

Tho Rate not yet Decided upOn-No Freight for Two
Days at Washington.
No definite action has been taken by
the passenger agents Of the Eastern
railroads upon the question Of fares to
the a~u,guration Of Cleveland at Wash
ington on March 4th, but it is alto
cation probable that a rate Of two
cents a miles will be agreed on for
short line distances in territory Of the
Trunk Line Association. The Presi-
dent has taken the matter up and will
settleit. Strong influences are at work
to make the fare as at former Inaugu-
rations. Some lines think that the
rates were two low, asAit did not pay
them far use Of equipment and other
charges.
Passenger agents contend that big
train loads at lower rates, based upon
one fare for the round trip, produces
handsome revenue. For the inaagur-
alton 1t will not be necessary to stop

A Little Consideration at this time viii do Much for
the Common Good.
At the beginning Of the new year,
when it is general payday and there
is a strain all around, it is Q in
cumbent upon everybody to meet
obligations promptly and to ease the
situation. There are a good deal of
complaint hat payments are slow.
This ought not to be the case, for the
year has boen fairly prosperous. A
little consideration for what is due to
each other would help to make things
pleasant..all around. One debt paid
enables the creditor in his turn to pay
another, ami 50 on through the whole
line Of obligations. Every man OF
women engaged in business or in any
profession realizes how important it IS
for everybody to do the best that may
be done to pay up for the common
good, and every debtor who does 50
enables some one else to follow suit.
Let there be a lively emulation IN do
ing good to each other.
