1T REMINDS US.

The zeal Of some of the lobb, lists
for county division at Boise brings to
mind the story of the old darkey
fisherman.
A certain old darkey was accustom.
ed to spend part Of each day of the
year on the bank of a stream near
his cabin fishing for catfish. Often.
tunes he was surrounded by little
darkies either fishing or sporting on
the banks. One day one Of the little
ones fell into the stream IN water over
his head. The old man threw down
his pole, jumped in and saved him.
A passer by saw the heroic act and
said. "Old man, you are hero, you
have saved your child"
"Dis amt my chile, boss, dis amt
mine, sir" said the old man.
"Then." continued the passer by,
"you are greater hero than | thought
you were; you risked your own life
to save the child Of another"
"Yes, but it is dis way boss re-
peated the old darkey, "dat ar miAzible
chile, you see, he have all de worms
in his pocket"
1t is not the care for the peoples
interest in the divided counties, but
the governor has the appointing of
the offices, you see.
