The man who buys and reads a
newspaper has right to expect the
merchants with whom he trades TO
advertise in its columns. A good
newspaper is natter not only of
public pride but is also public ben
efaetor. Subscribers alone cannot
make a good paper; it takes advertis-
ing as well. The man who is enter
prislng enough and has enough pride
in his home town to subscribe for and
read the home paper is do ng his part
and he should certainly see to it that
the merchants with whom he trades
do their part too. Their part is lib
eral patronage OF the advertising col
umns of the home paper. II they do
not advertise, they are not acting fair
ly either to the community at large or
to their patrons who read the home
paper. They are expecting their pat
rons to not only keep up their business
but also to keep a live newspaper GO
ing, while they reap the profit from
both. This isn't fair to the commun-
ity, and men who want good paper
will make the merchants of the town
understand that to retain their trade
they must advertise and they will do
this by trading only with people who
do advertising Exchange.

Twenty-Five Acres Enough.

The trouble with the latter day lar
mer is that he grabs for the earth and
clutches mortgage. We once read
book called "Ten Acres Enough"
When we first picked it up the idea of
ten acres being enough for farm was
too absurd in our estimation, TO be
seriously considered; but before we
had finished reading it we we're con-
verted. Since that time we have
known and lived neighbor TO a man,
in Southern California, who raised a
family Of six children on farm OF
five acres, and his family fed and
dressed as well and were as well school.
ed as the average middle class Ameri-
can. Five acres were enough in that
country because something was grow
ing there about all OF the time. Tween
ty-five acres here, we'll titled, would
supply the wants OF an ordinary fam
lily aud do it better than 160 acres or
more. Because no man can cultivate
100 acres by his own labor; because
he has to pay taxes on all OF the land
he ownes, whether he culiivates it or
not; because by monoplizing what he
cannot use and make profitable he re
tards the settlement of the state, and
Is by that act mulct in quadruple the
amount OF taxes he would have to pay
if the state were parceled out to tillers
in forty acre tracts; because in at
tempting to cultivate large tracts he
is necessarily limited In his choise OF
crops, to the least profitable, and be-
cause in order to nope for success at
all he is driven TO the purchase OF
cumbersome and costly machinery
which is not worth fifty per cent of its
cost to him, and for which he is COM
PEELED to mortgage his farm nine times
out Of ten and pay interest on the
mortgage amounting to twenty-five
per cent at least of his income.
Sell all Of your land above forty or
GO acres, sell your expensive machin-
| cry, take UP your mortgages, stop
| your interest drain, try variety crop
ping and careful tillng, and FIVE years
of freedom from mortgages and duns
will convince you that twenty-five acres
intelligently and economically man
aged ample for a family Of eight
persons, and make you glad you read
this squib. OF course this would be
hard on the manufacturers but it
would be the making of the farmers.

The Mountain CITY Road.

The people of Mountain City now
want a railroad. Our friends over
that way had better put all their
energies, at present, toward con-
structing good wagon road to this
place-after that, then take up the
railroad question. Vice President
w. L. Plumb Of the Mountain City
Board Of Trade publishes the fol-
lowing letter to the people of Elko
county in last Fridays Times:
To the people of Elko county,
We are going to construct a first
class wagon road north to connect
with the Oregon Short Line at
Mountain Home. Our object is two
fold.
First to secure competitive rail-
road rates. Second to demonstrate
to the men who are building the
railroad from Nampa to Silver City
that we have country in Elko
that will justify them TO come this
way. They are thinking of tapping
the Southern Pacific at Winnemucca,
and thence south west to the coast.
We know that the route by the way
Of Mountain City, Columbia, Lime
Mountain, Tuecarora and Lone
Mountain, thence to Elko and south
through our rich valleys all of which
are fianked by mountains charged
with rich ore, is far superior to the
one already mentioned. But it is
evident that the people in charge do
not know it, and it is our intention
to inform them.
The Mountain City Board Of
Trade will send a committee to Law
the matter before Col. Dewey and
his associates. They will explain
that the mountain chain from the
Mardis to Lone mountain is one
vast store house of undeveloped
mineral wealth, capable of sustain
ing vast population of the best
railroad customers in the world !;
viz, miners. They will explain
the commercial Importance of the
city Of Elko and the advantage
south from there to the coast, for
they will be men that know every
foot OF the ground from Boise City
to Los Angles.
Will the people of Elko county
help the grand enterprise along?
Will they ask their Board of Com
missioners to put themselves in
communication with the leading
business men of Boise, Nampa and
Silver CITY? Will they go to the
newspaper men and have them
write it up, to the merchants and
hotel men and get them to talk it
up; for it means a transformation
for Elko county and can be made
to win if we work together with a
will?

Senator Money of Mississippi is in
the Senate all right, bnt he had some
thing of a time getting there. At the
time OF his appointment Governor Nc
Laurin was in quar- ntine and hamp-
cred. He wrote to his clerk in Jack
son for a blank form. The clerk did
not know much, and he opened box
of blank commissions intended to be
used in clothing a constable with au-
thority. 1t would be impolite to say
that Gov. McLaurin did not know
much, either, but he never noticed,
and he filled out the form and sent
the credentials, so that when Senator
Money, who seems to have known as
much as any OF them, presented him
self on the floor of the Senate he was
there as a constable and not as a sen
ator. Nothing similar had ever oc-
CURED in that sedate body and the in
cident created much merriment, but
the Senate finally gave him seat,

Virtue its Own Reward.

The other day, says the Penny Press,
Santa Cruz teacher, who is quite
proud OF her class of bright youngsters,
arranged treat for the children. Each
child was told to prepare short essay.
The subjects were to be chosen and
the essays written without the aid or
knowledge of any grown person. The
parents were present when the day
came. 1t is drawing it mild to say
they were delighted when little girl
of eight years read the following essay
on the subject:
VIRTUE ITS OWN REWARD.
"Once there was poor young man
who was in love with a rich girl whose
mother had a large candy store The
poor young man waited to marry the
caniy lady's daughter very badly end
she wanted to marry him, but he was
too poor to buy furniture. Que day a
bad man came to him and offered him
$25 dollars to become a drunkard.
The poor young man was dreadfully
tempted because he wanted to be rich
enough to marry the candy lady's
beautiful daughter. But when he got
to the saloon door with the bad man
he said, Il will not break my pledge,
even to be rich. Get thee behind me,
SatanP So he went home and on his
way he found a ocket book with one
million dollars in gold in 1t. So he
went to the candy store lady's daugh.
ter and they were married. They had
a lovely wedding and the next week
they had twins. Thus we see that
virtue is its own reward"

We clip the following from an ex-
change: Editors are the first to hear
of gossip, indiscretion of men and
women, things unfit for publication,
intrigues, clandestine meetings,
night buggy rides, young girls gone
astray, flirtations with married wo
men, amours of married men-and
in fact all neighborhood scandals.
Editors generally know all the
naughty doings in a community, no
matter how secret. If one half
they hear was published, divorce
suits would follow in some cases,
social ostracism in others, shotguns
and gore, desolate homes, imprison-
ment, lynching, shame, humiliation
and misery. The editor learns
much of the shame and hypocracy
of life and it is a wonder that he
believes in anything on earth or in
the hereafter. People who abuse
the editor the loudest sometimes
owe their standing in society to his
forbearance.
