WHAT WE THINK A HERO.

Perhaps you think hero is man of giant
might,
A warrior in armor and champion in the
fight
One who thro' the world goes Boosting
that wrongs shall be no more,
And the glory of his great exploits is sung
from shore to shore.
In olden times hero was such man, /
know,
Who went to battle aided with javelin
and bow;
You've heard tell of Ajax, of Priam's
valiant son,
And of the great Achilles who many bat
ties won.
Now to be hero is quite another thing.
And he who wins the title is nobler than
king;
1t is he who follows duty and scorns to be
untrue,
Who is guided by his conscience and not
what others do.
We all can be great heroes by doing all We
can
To free this world from error and helI
our brother man;
We will want no blast of trumpet oul
greatness TO proclaim.
With heartfelt benediction mankind will
breathe your name.

A teacher in the Meadows sends in,
with a request to publish, the follow
ing first composition of one of his g.
year-old pupils:
My aunt lives down on Salmon river.
visited her and my little cousin Frank
this fall My little cousin and | had a
fine time. We ate good many water
melons. My aunt and my little cousin
and picked lots of string beans, and
shocked several shocks of corn fodder
All of us went down to Mr.. Pollocks and
picked fruit. The mountains are so high
you have to look right up to see the top of
Them. My little cousin had five pet pigs.
They would lay under the stove all the
time and they would bite you if you tried
to take them away. My cousin and
would get the eggs every evening. We
would build many play houses and then
we would play in them. We killed two
rattle snakes; they had five rattles on
them. We broke the dog to work and he
ran away with the wagon and broke one
wheel and pulled the tongue out of the
wagon. We had load of watermelon'
and he lost all of them. And my cousin
and | would feed the calves every day
We would feed them fodder. We would
hitch up the dog to the wagon and woult
put on load of fodder and 60 up to thu
corral and feed the calves. We broke on
of the calves to ride. We put nv saddle
on one of the calves and ] got on it and /
bucked me off and got on it again and
bucked and bawled loud. My Aunt Corr
and little cousin laughed at me. Tn
calf bucked the saddle off and kicked m
on the shin. | rode him straight up 70
the first three jumps but he busted tn
ladago and the saddle went over his head

The material is medium or mild
steel, metal that can be worked and
welded the same as best refined iron,
and much stronger. The span is 100
feet, and supported on steel cylinders
three feet in diameter, put together
with fifty-eight steel bolts in each
section, and filed with concrete of
Portland cement and stone, and each
weighing about l6 tons. The height
above the river is Is feet, and above
this raises the posts supporting the
top chords % feet higher, Eight
massive steel floor beams support the
ioists, which are of best red fir l6x4
on which the floor of Idaho pine,
4x12 and IA feet long, is laid. This

except the rail. The approach on

four bents 20 feet each, extended by
earthwork to an easy grade, and all
the iron work painted bright red,
all combined give the structure an
appearance of elegance and strength
very pleasing to the eye, to which the
county commissioners can point with
satisfaction at having done their duty
in every respect, and the contractors
refer to as q splendid reference for
work in all respects up to contract
requirements.
THE OLD BRIDGE.
Some way the work of building a
bridge or ship of timber carries with
it sentiment that does not enter
into the construction of any other
structure, and so when only short
ten years ago the master workman
made the plans and laid the massive
timbers in place and drove the strong
iron bolts home, it seemed as if it
was there for all time, and across 1t
for all these years have passed safely
the traffic Of the land, always trusting
to the past record for present secur-
ity, and it did the workswell. When
signs of weakness spp6ared repairs
were made and the day of final con-
domination put off as long as posi-
BILE, but the day came and the warn
ing word, dangerous, " greeted the
traveller. Distrust is always soon
followed by destruction, and Satur-
day, the 30th Of December, saw the
last decaying timber fall, and now
piled on either shore it only remains
to show how the old gives place tC
the new. AS in all other matters oil
public economy, there is difference
of opinion, some contending that il
would have been better, considering
the financial condition, to have re
paired the old bridge for a time
This would not have been possible, a:
the removal of one part only disclosed
more serious decay in others; in fact
it was only mass of rotton wood
held together by compression. 9th
ers contend that bridge of timbe
at less price should have been built
J and thereby kept the money expended
in the county, instead of sending
: away; and this seems good politica
! economy, but would be considere,
: very poor if practiced by an individ
ual. The new bridge is beyon
| doubt much the best, and in the Ion
: run will prove the cheapest, as man.
2 things are TO be thought of beside
S first cost. We have reason to hop
that the coming years will see an in
J crease in our population. This wi
t decrease the burden on present tax
: payers and they get some benefit {
\ present that future corners will hel
o pay for So, with good word an
kind memories of the old bridge, lt
us greet the new, looking forward
, the days when its strength and C;
n paclty may be fully tested by tt
o busy throng of travel that will CON
p when the present distrust shall hay
passed and honest policy in nations
Il affairs take the place of polite
: crime and corruption. Time at la
o makes all things even.

MIDDLE VALLEY BRIDGE.

Jney hD6W ana we lave DIruCIulo
to be Proud of,
Mankind are by nature migratory
and disposed tc change location. In
the far back ages, when commerce
and traffic were unknown, men in their
movements over the country crossed
streams by fords, and all roads would
lead to the most passable points on
rivers. and in course of time these
crossings would become important
points. From the ford to stepping
stones, and from this to rude struct-
ures Of logs, was a natural develop
ment to he followed, as time and
increased demand required, by struct-
ures of more or less Importance, and
at the present time the highest type
of engineering skill and. mechanical
effort is seen in the construction of
bridges at important points. For
many years, in near modern days, the
finest style of bridges were built of
stone, and their solid piers and grace
full arches are still objects of admira-
ton to the skilled engineer and the
ordiary observer. Among this class
in our own country, the High Bridge
at New York, over which the water
supply of the city is carried, is the
most celebrated To study the
history and progress of bridge build
ing and its influence on the social
and business development of coun-
try is almost to study the whole
economy of the land, and proves
that, all else being equal, trade fol
lows those lines least subject to delay
or danger and over which the most
weight can be transported at min
imum expenditure of force. A
hundred miles of good road may be
made worthless for want of hun
bred feet of good, safe bridging.
Improved methods of working iron
ores, and the process of converting
iron into steel, have worked q greater
revolution in bridge building thar
anything else, and today where per
manence and strength are required NJ
other material is considered where the
use of steel is possible; and the com
missioners of our county showed thei
wisdom and good judgment when, il
their August meeting, they determ
ined to replace the old wooden struct
ure across the Weiser river at Middl
valley with a steel bridge of the hes
type and quality. The road, of whic
the bridge is an indispensable part,
the most important thoroughfare i
the state, connecting as it now doe
the north and south sections G
Idaho. The contract was let to tn
Bullen Bridge Company, and was
have been ready for use by Decembe
/, 1898, but unavoidable delays {
the steel works made the delivery {
the material impossible until the
of December, when it arrived ;
|. Weiser. Mr.. j. NJ Atherton, supe
intendent of construction, was on tt
ground, and under his able drectic
the material, about forty tons, W;
soon on wheels and all delivere
speedily at Middle valley, Jof
Walker being the contractor. {
b the 10th work of construction beg,
and was continued with only OF
days delay to final completion {

that no accident or damage to men
