Among the many presents for New
Year sent by Senator Dubois to his
little friends OF Blackfoot, was an air
gun for Mrs. Lyons little boy. 1t was
a pretty gun, nicely finished and
highly polished. Mrs. Lyons made a
critical examination of it and was

out Ii was loaded. Her thumb told hei

Shorten the Table.

Few things seem sadder to THE NEWS
than the breaking up of family circle,
the dissolution Of once happy home.
When 1t once begins it goes forward
with rapidity that is almost startling.
A son, dissatisfied With the narrow
surroundings of his home, goes out into
the world TO seek his fortune; then a
daughter marries, and perhaps, another
follows. and soon it seems as If all are
gone.
The long table in the dining hall il
shortened; chairs with no one to occupy
them, are moved and stored away, the
father or mother wrapped in Their
burial robes may be sleeping in the
silent city, and the old house h left al
most empty. 1t is sad picture Of ar
old couple, an old father, or an old
mother trying TO keep cheerful spirii
in an empty room, once merry with the
laughter of their happy children.

The Retiring Officers.

The county officers, OF this, Bing-
ham county, who win surrender their
offices 10 their respective successors
next Monday, have the satisfaction Of
knowing that they take with them to
private life the best wishes OF very
large majority OF the people whom they
have served for the two years past.
THE NEWS believes they have served
the county, faithfully, honestly and to
the best OF their ability. They have
been courteous, careful and consid.
crate OF the wishes and wants OF
their constituency, and their faithful
services win commend them for en-
dorsement and best wishes from that
constituency. THE NEWS, in taking
leave OF them In their official capacity
acknowledges its Indebtedness to then
for kind consideration and fair ant
lust treatment. We believe they have
done we'll; we believe the people, gen
orally, will join us in saying they hav'
done we'll.

The Legislature.

The legislature of the State has be-
gun work auspiciously. Its prompt or
ganization and its movements along all
lines, give promise of a session of bus
iness and thorough work.
AS matter of course but little OF
public interest has been done or could
be done during the opening days Of the
session. The committees will all be ap-
pointed this week, and the machinery
generally will be put in order with
steam on for work in earnest next Mon
day morning.
About 20 bills have already been in.
troduced and number of joint resolu'
tions. Among the resolutions was one
by Representative Capps, calling fol
the appointment of a committee of five
three from the House and two from ths
Senate, TO visit the Asylum and repor
upon its needs by the 18th of The month
that the committee on appropriation
may proceed intelligently in providing
for that institution.
THE NEWS Is very hopeful Of goo
work from the legislature this session
and the people may well take heart an
encouragement from the auspiciou
opening and beginning it has made.

that some one has proven it useful IN

is that it had not been thought OF at

ounces Of the formaline are added to

potatoes are soaked for two hours
After being taken from the bath they
can be cut and planted as usual, either
at once or after some time. Formaline
is net corrosive. ard so can be used IN
any kind of vessel, and not being
poisonous, there are no particular pre-
cautions to be observed. 1t does, now

any raw spots, and the fumes irritate
the eyes and throat. But these are
only slight annoyances.
