What is the town of Weiscr to do
for pure water supply, fire pro-
lection and means to improve present
deplorable sanitary conditions? Those
are problems (and very hard ones,
too) which we must pause from dol
lar hustling to think OF.

A financial bill has been drawn by
the money changers of the country,

Assessed Valuation Raised 25 Per Cent.

Assessed Valuation Raised 25 Per Cent.
1t will be remembered that short
time ago the county assessor sent out
postals notifying each taxpayer OF
the amount of state, county and other
taxes he would have to pay this fall,
but the freeholders of the county, as
well as other portions Of the state,
are doomed to disappointment. No
tice has heen received by the said
assessor from the state board OF
equalization to the effect that the
assessed valuation of ali real prop
erty in the state had been raised 20
per cent Hence the tax to be
paid on that kind of property will be
one fourth higher than at first figured.

SHANTIES AND SHACKS.

Weiser is, we are panied to say,
filling up with shauties and shacks
that are n disgrace and material in
jury to the place, when located, as
many are, in the heart of the town
The people of this city who believe in
thrift and enterprise and who are
working earnestly for the upbuilding
and advancement of Weiser are un
alterably opposed to these miserable
eye sores on the main streets of our
otherwise up-to date and fiourishing
town, and they desire to enter an I'M
mistakable protest against,the build
ing OF such cross roads structures as
have been stuck out into the faces of
the enierprising taxpayers by an itiu-
Grant class of individuals who are pay
ing no taxes and are only here for the
dollars and cents they can get out of
the people in this vicinity which of
right belong to our legitimate aud de-
serving business men who make this
their home and are identified with
the progress aud prosperity of this
place. Lots on which some OF these
inferior stables are erected are owned
by men who do not live in the city
and who only bought the property
for speculative purposes. They leased
hem 10 others who sub-lcased them

When politics measure the value Of
man to his party by the mean
things he can say Of individuals be
longing to another party, or even Of
the party itself, then politics, like
rotten carrion, should be buried from
the sight of men.

Don't Tell My Wife.

When New York has placed the
stamp Of approval upon play 1t
does not always mean that it will
be successful elsewhere. The ex-
ception which proves the rule how
ever is without a doubt "Don't Tell
My Wife" and the hearty welcome
that has been accorded this clever
farce everywhere shows that its
success has been a solid one. Ger
tainly no play produced in many
years has achieved the wonderful
success as has this one. We often
hear of the remarkable success in
New York and other large cities
and of the phenomenal engage
ments they play-all that has been
said regarding Don't Tell My
Wife's" great success is true. Its
run of 100 performances in New
York and everyone with audiences
that taxed the theatres is a feat
that would be hard to duplicate.
Since it has been seen out of the
city the success it has been met
with has been wonderful. Every
where the same story "every seat
Sold" 1t will be seen here at the
Opera House Dec. II, by Mr.. Felix
Risser's Company with an espec-
Ially strong cast and with all neces-
sary seen cry to give it the perfect
production.

Merited Recognition.

1t Is perhaps little CALLING to
such whist players as Il. Yerges
and Chas Rose to have another of
our town to be recognized by the
Capital City Whist Club as being
the best player among us. They
have for some years rather dom.
ineered over the lesser lights In
hist, but at last they have met
their Waterloo. Mr.. Theodore
Stephan, the genial baker with
Frasch Brothers, has come upon
the boards, and has built himself
up such u reputation by his success
in whist that the boasted players OF
our town have been buried in OBJ
livion, and his reputation has gone
abroad. The following invitation
will be recognized as an acknowl-
edRement that Mr.. Stephan stands
high in the whist circles OF Ohio,
and that his merits as u player are
widespread:
Columbus, Ohio, Nov. 2s, 1899.
To Theodore Stephan E-q Logan
Ohio-Dear Sir:-You are cordial.
ly invited to attend the fourth reg.
ular meeting of the Ohio Whist AS
ISOLATION to be held in Columbus
on Friday and Saturday, Dec. is
and l6, under the auspices Of the
Columbus Whist Club.
AT this meeting will be held the
contests for the three Club Trophies
Of the Association; the Toledo, the
Cincinnati and the Cleveland Trop-
HES In addition there will be
four single session matches open to
all, whether members of clubs or
residents of Ohio or not, and all
whist players are invited to attend
the meeting and enter the games.
The headquarters for the meeting
will be Mt the Great Southern
Hotel. Your expenses should be
paid by the club you represent. A
banquet will he served in Parlor 2
after each sitting, the cost being

EVentful Day.

Saturday of last week was rather
eventful in the affairs of Judge o..
w. III. Wright. The day marked
the Goth anniversary of his we'd
ding; on that day he was sworn in
as Judge of the Common Pleas
Court for five years, and he resign
ed as member of the Logan
School Board OF which he has been
member for II years, and l5 years
its president. We join with him
in the pleasure of his Goth wedding
anniversary and in his being sworn
in as Common Pleas Judge, but re-
gret very much his resignation
from the school board. He has
served almost score of years on
the board, and it now interferes
largely with his court work and he
felt II a duty to resign in favor Of
some other who could give it better
attention. He has kindly feeling
for the citizens of Logan in the con-
fidence they reposed in him these
many years in entrusting to him,
as member Of the board, the edu-
cation of their children, and as,
sures our people that his interest
IN our schools, the foundation OF
our government, shall never wane.
We understand that Mr.. Frank
Brown will be appointed to the va
cancy on the School Board. Mr.
Brown will make an excellent
member.

HIAwATHA.

Ia Parody, written by visitor to the stor
Hals. OF Stiers q Col
Should you ask me whence these Stories
Neither leglons nor traditions,
But true history and true sayings,
Known to all within the borders,
or the valley of Old Hooking;
Whence these stories of bright seasons -
or crisp mornings and fingers tingling.
And the stir OF merchant traders,
Putting up their signs and trimmings.
Not the legions OF Kris Kinkle,
Az his horns and sleigh bells Jingle,
Nor the myth OF pleasant dreamings
or the light from hearth stone streaming;
Not the sk optic or the doubtful.
Came to lure this one so youthful.
Come we with true sayings
or the search OF Hiawatha,
Ofhis wonder and his waDderings,
In monster trade emporium,
In this quickly closing century,
In village named for Logon.
Wandered he before the buildings
Ofthis citadel thriving, Jostling;
Ponderlng on the admiration,
0 =
With the silent dead now numbered
Gould they but behold these wonders.
Drift he then with people passing,
On the pathway anxious seeming;
On the pathway toward the river,
Where In legions Laughing Water"
Breathed the peace Of sin ging nature,
slipped the sweets o. Heavens rapture,
Hanny pauf m onraobir.x traaa
!. Paused he soon before structure
Ere he reached the rural verdure--
Where the people gazed admiring,
Seeming pleased with window trimming,
Looked he on with admiration,
At the beauties of creation,
Beauties OF the sweet medallion,
And the Chinas high in fashion.
Entered he within the portals,
Of this mammoth store OF mortals,
Gszed about in seeming wonder,
At the richness and the splendor,
Ofthe silks and lacy texture.
Gazed he on the warming man ties
To dispell the wintry trembles.
And fine shoes In place OF sandals
Met the wonders OF his gaze.
Round about up stairs he wanders,
And with face of glowing, ponders
BY the carpets, curtains, sundries;
Marvels at the rich material,
Chants In glee "a Christmas carol.
Should you ask me whence these stories,
Whittier wandered Hiawatha,
Whittier gazed he on these wonders,
G1sed he on these gorgeous splendors,
would point you to the structure,
On the pathway toward the river,
Hasten you to visit one day,
The mammoth store of Stiers & Company.
