A. T. Shane, formerly of this city
was candidate for town trustee of
Idaho Falls at yesterdays election.
Charley Brown sold two more
DeLavel seperators this week. The
dairymen of the valley are begin
ming to see that this little machine
is an absolute necessity, if they
want to compete with progressive
farmers.
<Some mathmetician has figured
Fout that at least $4,000 in cash has
left this county in the last week
for Salt Lake. We think the
estimate entirely too low. And
vet there are some people who
woader why times are SO hard.
For couple of weeks past Pres
ident Wilford Woodruff has been
quite poorly in health, and is still
confined to his room. We are
pleased to state, however, that he
is improving, and to unite in the
desire felt by all the Saints that he
will recover speedily to perform in
comfort and with his accustomed
yigor the many duties devolving
upon him.-Deseret News.
The governor has not yet ap-
pointed the members of the medi-
cal board. There are not many ap-
plieants, and it seems to be the
understanding that those who are
anxions to get the place are not
the kind who should be selected.
1t is singular fact that some men
who openly or covertly fought the
bill to the end are aspirants for ap-
pointment as members of the
board.-Statesman.
At meeting of the regents one
of the interesting things developed
was that the old beard had drawn
5000 of the $500 appropriation for
payment of the expenses of the
regents during this term. The
members are little vexed over the
matter. The appropriation is $500
less than that of two years ago,
and they do not see how they can
get through on what is left.
We are prepared to take that

into blocks 12 inches long or in

The EXAMINER has received a
letter from Emil Vaterlaus in
which he denies all the charges
made against him by the Post.
The communication is to long for
publication, but the substance is
that he was injustly accused by
the Post. We know nothing of
the matter and give his statement
as sent to as.

The speaker of the house and
the president of the senate have
each c claimed four days extra pay
for the time the legislature was in
session in excess of 60 days. Aud
itor Anderson has declined to allow
the claims, and an arrangements
has been made to submit an agreed
case to the supreme court. Each
of the officers in question receives
$3.50 day for the time the legis4
lature is in session. The session
lasted four days ove~ the period of
60 days for which members can be
paid. Speaker Afford and Lieu-
tenant Governor Moore both
thought they were entitled to COM
pensation for this extra time; hence
the proposed case in the supreme
court.-Statesman.
Kinds and Lowell, the two con-
victs who escaped last week, are
again at the penitenitary. They
were caught in Malheur county.
Oregon, after being out five days.
Deputy Sheriff Blair, ex-Dsputy
Fulton and Donnelly, one of the
prison guard, effected their capture,
though number Of other good
men were in the chase. Kinds es-
capped from Jail pending his indict-
ment and is a sharp one in getting
freedom. But he is faulty in
judgement. He should have waited
until summer made life in the
mountains beyond question before
leaving the walls. He and Lowell
should also have known that War

successor, would have never rested

MIsTLEroE OR ANY OLD THING.
IL the Girl Doesn't Object 1t Is All
Right to Kiss Her.

The large number of wagonloads Of mistle-
toe winch nave been sold in this city for
holiday business has evidently aroused
great expectations on the part Of the young
men, and probably great approximations On
the part of the young women, all of which
1t Is devoutly to be wished may be realized
says the Morning Oregonans "A gentleman
who would not have his name mentioned fer
the world has written to inquire If there was
no other plant, sprout, or flower under which
This depends. Under proper conditions. the
lady being willing, it is permissible to per-
form the rite Of OSCILLATION under any kind
OF greenery or in the absence of any. Kiss
ing under the rose (sub-rosa-in private)
Is also permissible, as is shown by the fol-
lowing true tale:
rather shy young man at a. Christmas
women under the mistletoe without ruth or
remorse, but, although he kept a bright
lookout for chance. he could never catch the
one he was dying to kiss within any reason
able distance Of the mistletoe bough Finally
he found her alone in a secluded place. and
there being no mistletoe handy, he seized a
head with one hand. seized her with the
other, and, after lively tusske, succeeded
in kissing her.
The noise Of the scufHe attracted the atten-
ton of some of the other men, who caught
him in the act and commenced to lecture
him On the improperly of his conduct His
reply was: IF you may kiss a lady under
the mistletoe, why may not l also kiss her
reason advanced, the subject was dropped !;
but the next day local, paper mentioning
the incident, stated that the man asked: IF
you kiss her under the mistletoe, why may l
not also kiss her under the nose?''
This caused the young man to be joked by
his friends; but. after all9;o of the proper
est and most satisfactory places to kiss a
lady is a short distance below the nose.
There Is a whole lot of humbug about this
mistletoe racket, anyway, as it has tendency
to create an impression In the minds Of the
unsophisticated that kissing is like Christmas
in order only once a year.

Senator John Sherman, chairman of
the committee on foreign relations
says: Il do not know what will be done

whether the Cuban resolutions will be
passed soon, replied: Nobody knows

The influence of the administration
against Cuban recognition seems para
mount. The bold declaration of the ex-
ecutive prerogative by Secretary OIL
ney has challenged statesmanlike con-
sideration. The majority in both
houses of the congress seems to hest
tate to engage in a struggle over this
important constitutional question, just
as one administrations sun is setting
and that Of another is dawning. Con-
sequently it may be said with a great
degree of positiveness that the Cam
eron resolutions will not be passed. If
they should by any parliamentary pos
sibilty be adopted by the senate, 1t
would be practically impossible for
them to run the gauntlet Of the house
OF representatives. 1t IS conceded on
all hands now that the resolutions
could not be passed over the veto of
the president. Hence the apparent con-
clusion to do nothing.

Worcester. Mass, whose experiments in

mention In the discussion of the subject Of
sewerage for inland cities is to be compelled
by court decision to make some chanes in
its methods. AS is known, much OF the sew
erage of that city Of 100 600 inhabitants is
treated by the expensive process Of chemical
precipitation, the theory being that the fluids
being allowed to flow into the river after this
process are innocuous The overflow is into
the Blackstone river, and residents along that
stream assert that the river is still prejudicial
to their health and comfort because Of the
sewerage judicial inquiry discloses that
the trouble is due partly to the nature of
the treated sewerage which is turned back
into the stream. and partly to the fact that
some portion of the city sewerage flows into
the river without being treated. The city In
directed to seek diligently a remedy and to
report three months hence what it has done
One important change contemplated is thu
separation of the surface drainage from the
sewerage, thus rendering easier the treatment

cities Of Connecticut, which are also facing
