Speaking of the case of Mrs.

} Wichita Eagle says In the
} 'o0s Mrs. Nations husband (who
{ afterwards died of delirium tre-
mems and whose downfall is said
to be the reason for her intense
hatred of the liquor traffic. was
running an auti-slavery paper in
St. Joseph, Mo. One day loi.

him aad burned the office for the
purpose of putting stop to the
paper. Mrs. Nation managed to
get a few cases of type out of the

Society in the town of Malad
{ has decided that sitting OUT
| waltz will be more fashionable
: from now on than dancing. The
e sitting OUT embodies the same
5 position as dancing-the only diff
ference is that you sit-instead of
dance. The mans right arm is
f around the girls waist, while his
: left hand holds her right. Her
left hand is placed upon his
shoulder, while her head rests
e lovingly on his bosom, and all
r they have to do is to sit and listen
r to the music. Quite nuisance
f to gallop mile or two to get q
a hug or two. A room full of
o people sitting around on sofas,
d hugging to music, is our notion.
!, Most men waltz, not for the
0 dance, but for the position; and.
n while many man may lose his
appetite for dancing, he has to
S get powerful old before he loses
: bis appetite for hugging pretty
d girl. .-Malad Enterprise.

he This is class legislation as il
ly does not apply only to those
or ''ontside the limits of incorpor
d. ated towns or villages. Why
f. should people living in incorpor
ed ated towns or villages be exempt
a is a question we would like tt
ne know. Is the sin less !? That j:
ne to say that the saloons in Sal
he mon, Blackfoot, or other incor
he porated towns in Idaho, could
throw their doors wide open Oh
RS Sundays, yet in Challis, or any
he other unincorporated town i
he the State, persons selling intoxl
as eating liquors must close thell
Ir- places of business on Sundays
it and on all other days of th'
or week at II p. M. Why don't I
he apply to all alike ? Such a bill
