From high official authority it is
learned that the Oregon Short Line
will this year commence the con-
struction Of new and permanent
locomotive and car shops at Poca-
tello. The point of location has
been settled upon definitely, and
its selection is due to the fact that
i: is the central point, geographi-
cally, of the system; and the point
where the Salt Lake-Butte line
and the Granger-Huntington line
cross. -Pocatello Tribune.

Prof. French of the state univer-
sity writes the EXAMINER that he,
in company with Pres. Blanton and
Prof. Miller, will be in Bear Lake
county on August 21st to hold
farmers institutes.
The first meeting will be held in
Pasis on the afternoon of the 2lst,
also in the evening. Two sessions
will be held in the same town on
the 22nd, morning and afternoon.
In the evening of the 22nd session
will be held in Montpelier.
On the 23rd two meetings will
be held in St. Charles in the morn
ing and afternoon. In the even
ing Of the 23rd meeting will be
held in Montpelier.
This will give the farmers and
stockraisers of the valley chance
to attend at least one session.
These institutes arc fast becom-
ing a popular institution in the
state and everywhere they are
largely attended. We hope that
in Bear Lake large audiences viii
greet these professors, as they
come prepared to assist the farmers
in every way. Further particulars
will be given later.

"Peanut Politics."

Every lover of pure politics will en-
dorse the following true words from
the Mortified News, and in justice
to both candidates we trust that the
article will be widely copied and
carefully read.
"Since the day of the death of the la
mented Senator Morrill, the movements
of ex-Gov. Dillingham; and Congressman
Grout, the leading candidates for the va
cancy, have been watched with jealous
eye by few partisans of both gentle
men. When the ex-governor cut short a
pleasure trip in the south that he might
be present to pay a last tribute to the
dead statesman, it was suggested in
some quarters that he FASTENED home to
begin political canvass. When the con-
gresham made a contribution from his
ample means to the monument fund OF a
poet, whose works he had admired it
was limited that he was endeavoring to
'get solid" with somebody politically
when the ex-governor accepted an invi-
tation TO speak before social organiza-
ton it was known that he was setting
stake for future political purposes
when the congressman called on an old
friend and shook hands with a chance
acquaintance it was charged that he had
begun his political campaign. And thus
the silly season opened up early. In jus
tice to both men it may be said that
probably neither countenances such sus
picions Of the other and these aspersions
are confined to a few fool friends OF each

To run a newspaper without ac-

is untrue or gives olfense, remarks

running a railroad without having
accidents and smashups. To do
either is a physical impossiblility.
No man on earth is to so great an
extent constantly at the mercy of
both friends and enemies as the
editor of a country newspaper.
Pushed continually with work, he
must get much of the information

The election of a president Of
the school board to succeed VIM.
Clark will take place on the first
Monday in May, and it is time
some thought was given the matter.
Without any reflection upon the
present board or teachers, it is
very apparent that radical change
is needed in school affairs in this
district. A infusion of new and
vigorous management is necessary,
also little aggression. We have
been approached by a number of
citizens who take laudable inter
est in educational matters and it is
the sense of each that a little
reform would give better results to
the patrons of the school. In
discussing the capability and the
eligibility of probable candidates
for the position of president of the
board, the unanimous conclusion
was that DR.. j. w. Rockefeller was
the logical selection. The position
is not to be coveted, for the dis
charge Of the duties of the Office
entails a considerable amount of
careful labor and discriminating
Judgment; but nevertheless, we
hope the Doctor can be prevailed
upon to consent to his candidacy
as duty alone, and at the request
of two score or more of those who

he embodies the executive ability
and thorough understanding of the
science of education required to
properly fill the place.
