RECORDOFPO PULISM
SOME GRATIFYING RESULTS OF
REFORM RULE
Two Strong Populist States
Deserve CongratuIation on
the Showing Made.

Kansas and Nebraska are the
two states in which Populism has
been tried to the greatest extent,
ana as result they are the strong
sst Populist states in the Union.
The record of the party in Kansas
is well understood by readers of the
Advocate and News, but the splen-
did record of the Nebrask Populist
administration has not been fire.
hnently referred to. When State
Treasurer Meserve took charge, one
year ago. he found defalcation on
the part of his predecessor of 1915,
525, and the treasury empty and
variants passing at about SO cents,
b discount of per cent. This was
Certainly an unfavorable condition
to begin on. At the end Of the first
fiscal year he had registered 81 ,021,

ring the corresponding preceding

and absolute economy on his part

offices and in the legislature brought
abouta reduction OF $603,967. This
IL just what any sane business man
you'd do hi his private affairs, and
these pSphlist officers introduced
sane methods into public affairs.
State warrant were paid promptly
and honestly as fast as money was
received and they soon rose in price
intil they now bring a premium of
thfee-fourths Of one per cent, where
they had previously been discount
ed at per cent. Then, instead of
allowing these warrants to be hawk
ed about, the treasurer bought all
that could be obtained with money
from the school fund, thus securing
to the State the interest on them.
His predecessors had allowed this
school money to lie in banks where
. little interest was paid to the State
This evidence of business sanity
brought good fruit, as the interest
derived from the school fund for
distribution to the schools amount
I'd to $739,591, while the average
for the previous years had been but
$560,205. He also managed things

Gc debt. A, year or two Of such
management will put Nebraska on
Der feet financially. Instead of pull
ing that State down and running
her credit, the Populist officers have
given the State a good name and
have shown their ability and dis
position to give the public good,
economical business like service.
Nebraska should be congratulated
for the selection of such efficient
officers. Topeka News.

A good story is told by the Walla
Walla (Wash.) Statesman about
resident Of that place who; short
time ago. was out ON a mining tour
through the hills near the interna-
tional line. The person in question
will meyer be hung for his good
looks, and he realizes the fact that
he is not the handsomest man on
earth. He was riding along one day
when he saw rider approaching
him, and he thought be would have
little fun. When the stranger was
within few feet of him he pulled
out his gun and, pointing it at the
fellow, ordered halt. The stranger
said; Ees i.
swell, pard, I have no money,
but you can search me,''
The other replied that it was not
money he was after, but his life.
The stranger asked what he had
done that merited this, when the
man from Walla Walla said:
II swore some time ago, that if l
ever met an uglier man than my
self would shoot him, and you are
the man.
The stranger took. good, long
look at the man with the gun, after
which he coolly said:
"Blaze away. If Pm uglier than
you are life is not worth livingl"

DAMAGING.

In order to build up our town,
and surrounding country, the plain
facts should be told; and only facts.
Any newspaper, or any business
man, or anyone who distorts the
facts works an injury,
Cottonwood is on a natural town
site, the best location of any town
on the prairie surrounded by all
the natural sources of wealth, that
will ultimately make it large town.
But it will not attain any size, it
cannot grow if the truth is distort-
ed or gross exaggerations made.
Many people are now looking for
homes in this healthy region, and
many more are coming, they are
not fools; they understand what
they want, they do not swallow ev-
erything they hear, or see in the
newspapers. They expect to find
the town and country as represen-
ted, and when they find that mis-
representations and exaegerations
have been INDUCED in, they become
suspicious. In verification, look at
the hamlets that now show tie
blight of the boomer, who, by mis-
representation and high-color paint
ing has sought to delude settlers,
and settled the fate of the town they
in wrong manner, were trying to
build up.
Any and all tnisstatements are
damaging, they simply react to the
detriment of all concerned. Tell the
truth; that, cannot be bettered, you
cannot improve on II. Do not, like
some, be silly enough to allow diff
ference in politics or religion to in
fuence your actions, or warp your
judgement. Stand by your town,
drop your little; petty, selfish bick-
erings that are despicable, get out
of the old moss-grown groove, and
let us all pull together for the up
building of our town, and by uni
ted effort we can make it possible
for a railroad to consider this the
best objective point in all this re-
gion. Cottonwood has the most
and best natural advantages of any
place on this broad prairie, and is
the gateway to the great gold pro-
ducing mines of Idaho County.

Persons who happen to be incon-

invited to agitate their spirits by
contemplation OF the prospect of a
shortage of oxygen in the atmos-
phere. 1t seems that there are we'll
Informed persons, Lord Kelvin
among them, who find reason to be-
lieve that this calamity is impend-
ing. The figures (estimated) in the
case are that the world uses annual

breathing purposes and nearly half
~ much for fires, This is big con-
sumption. To repair it we rely on
vegetation, which we are pretty con-
stantly restricting. So we use more
and more oxygen all the time and
make less and less.
No wonder Lord Kelvin says the

CariOsities of Sound.

Sight, we know, is INSTRUCTED by
fogs and nists, and now it has be-
come evident that there must be at
times in the air sort of "sound
fogs," which prevent sound from
carrying, just as mists prevent one
from seeing objects at distance.
In different parts of our islands
there are places where sounds travel
in a most mysterious fashion. The
whispering gallery of st. Pauls is
probably the best known instance,
but there are others even more Curl
GUS and interesting. There is we'll
at Carisbrooke castle, in the isle of
Wight, the water in which stands
over 40 feet below the ground level.
Yet if you drop pin into it the
sound of it's striking the water is
perfectly audible to the listener.
At st. Adams cathedral, before
the reservations were made, the tick
of an ordinary watch could be heard
from end to end of the building,
though more than 200 feet in length.
The evening gun at Plymouth has
been heard at Ilfracombe, 60 miles
away, and shepherds on Salisbury
plain have heard practice firing of
big guns off Port smouth.
Still more extraordinary, salute
fired off Holyhead was heard over
at Kingstown, in Ireland. Sound
travels over water more easily than
land. You can on calm night
hear a piano over mile away across
a lake, and two people in boats can
talk with ease at distance of over
100 yards. But it is in the arctic
regions, during the calm of intense
cold, that sound travels in the most
wonderful fashion. Strand Maga-
zine.
