THE END OF THE WAY.
My life is a wearisome Journey,
I'm sick with the dust and the heat;
The rays OF the sun beat upon me,
The briars woundng my feet;
But the city to which am going
VIII more than my trials repay,
And the tolls of the road will seem nothing
When get 10 the end or the way.
There are many hills to climb upward.
j often am longing for rest;
But He who appoints me my my pat athnw away
/ know in His Word He has promised
That my sire1gth h, shall be AZ my sssS DAY Nothing
When get to the end OF the way.
He loves me too well to forsaks me
Or give me one trial 100 much:
All His people have been dearly purchased
And Satan car never claim such
BY and by shall see Him and praise Him
In the city OF unending day,
And the tolls OF the road VIII seem nothing
When | get to the end of the way.
When the last feeble step has been taken
And the gates Of the city appear,
And the beautiful songs of the angels
Float out on my listening ear
When all that now seems so mysterious
VIII be plain and clear as the day.
And the tolls of the road will seem nothing
When l get to the end OF the way.
Tho now I am footsore and weary.
shall rest when I'm safely at home.
know I'll receive glad welcome. 80
So. when am weary In body
Ali the tolls Of the road viii seem nothing
When / get to the end Of tho way.
Cooling fountains are there for the thirsty;
There are robes that are whittier and purer
Than any that fancy can paint
Then try to press hopefully onward.
TR o Of S'f the 'H aad Ssnfy nothing
When / get to the end Of the way.

Not Fond VI Water.

1t is said that the Eskimos dislike
water very much. Therefore they
hardly over wash themselves, and
when they do so their toilet is rough
and ready. If their feet get wet they
change their boots ut once as the
extreme cold OF the climate renders
their feet icy and their boots stiff
after dip in the water. No doubt
this also is the reason. why they so
seldom enjoy the, luxury Of "a wash.
So, too. they cannot swim and, even
il they could, tho Accomplishment
would be useless, since Tho 'cold
water would freeze them in no time:

Tie Salt Lake herald has the fol-
lowing very timely remarks to make
on the suDj.c Of cutting down the
ealaries of State officials, which Is
appljcahle to Nevada as we'll as many
other states:
In many Of the, States the salaries
of public officials are being cut. tits
beginning to he realized that the
@pubic servants" are very much bet
ter paid and generally nave consider
atly less to do than those who get
their living far from the public
crib.
Most of the salaries OF public Of
ticials everywhere were fixed III the
DAYS when there was nothing but a
PAPER currency and when 1t took very
much more to buy the necessares OF
life. us well us lis luxuries, than it
does today. While salaries Of public
officials may not have been fixed IN
those days, the salaries Of those days
have been used as the busis for them.
In those old days it took two dollars
of paper money to buy dollars
worth of anyth ing measured IL gold
or silver. lin these days, since the de.
monetization Of silver the purchas-
ing DO er If the dollar has nearly
doubled through the appreciation of
gold and the corresponding deprecla-
ton of all kinds of products and
manufactures.
During the past five or six years
the country has been passing through
period Of great depression. 1t has
been necessary for everybody to
economizc TO the utmost extent, while
few indeed arc the business concerns.
whether private or corporate, that
have not been compelled to cut, and
thst very materially, their salary List.
But this necessity has not been felt
by the Federal or State Governments
or by the minor municipal divisions
OF the States. Que consequence
has been that the people have been
compelled to pay very heavy taxes in
the hardest times. Another conse.
.uence has been that the Office hold
ers have not felt the nip Of business
distress and Decentralization. The
scaling down OF the salaries of pub
lie officials until they reach some
thing like the level of salaries paid by
private businessmen for similar ser
vices will meet with popular approval
all over the country.

An Enterprising Firm.

Hogan Bros. have just moved
into their new barber shop on Main
street between the Exchange saloon
and the Pioneer stables. They now
have one Of the best shops IN the
northwest, and a place of business
which is not only credit but an
ornament to the town. The wood
work is finished in hard oil and
the paper is light blue shade Of
the finest ingram. They have new
and latest style Of chairs, am Angle
lamp-the only lamp of the kind
in the state; latest style bath tub,
steel clad, copper lined and heavy
nickel plated; and Chicago Wilkes
heater, and can give IA bath upon
ten minutes notice. No better ac-
cOmmodations can be found in the
west and they are the best BARRIERS
we know of in the state.
w. S. Hogan came to Grange
vile about six years ago and his
brother Frank came about two
years later, and during their busi-
ness career here twelve other bar
bers have come and gone, being
unable to compete with the popular
shop of Hogan the Barber" These
men have spared neither time nor
money in fitting up their shop and
furnishing every modern conven-
| ience for the accommodation OF
their customers and are entitled to
the patronage of the people. Their
motto is equal accommodations
to ALL" Give them a trial and be
convinced. The money these men
make in the country they at once
invest in the town and now each
of them has good home and is
contributing his share toward the
general Improvement
