Logical Reasons.

The Idaho Falls Register does
not wholly agree with the EXAMINER
as to the best method of dlsposing
Of the county printing, and 1t pro-
duees such a good argument against
MS that we copy it in full below.
After publishing our idea of the
matter the Register which is a
republican paper, says:
We do not agree with theExAM1NER
concerning this matter, the law is all
right as it is, and does not require any
amending. ITO the victor belongs the
spoils" rs as true in connection in this
matter as any other. If the board of
county commissioners are democrats,
then the proceedings and all newspaper
advertising belongs to the democratic
paper, and all the talk about the poor
tax payers being robbed is nothing but
nonsense; all there ia to it is the cry of
the fellow who gets left when the board
asks for bids. The commissioners have
the power to cut bill down if the
price is too high, and it is All easy mat
ter for them to ascertain what the
price ought to be. In this county TIE
board for the past two years has been
democratic, or fusion, and exceedingly

During tho fiscal year just en-
ded this government has coined
nearly one hundred million dollars
in gold and over thirty-fve million
dollars in silver. Yet the Bryan
ties tried to convey the idea if the
gold standard were maintained the
coinage of silver would cease alto
gether. The object ofthe Republican
party's financial policy is not to dis
countenauce the use of silver as a
circulating medium, but rather
to increase the circulating volume
Of the white ccin aud keep its pur-
chasing power equal to that of any

Preparing Wheat Land.

The success of this crop depends
largely upon the selection of land
and the preparation of the soil.
The light, sandy and gravely loan
soils which are known AZ natural
wheat land are where this grain
flourishes, if the plant elements
needed for this crop are abundant
and available, yet clay coils with
proper manipulation do yield pay
lug crops. :
As wheatrequires a large supply
of nitrogen for good growth, and
has ut tho same time little ability
to store it, unless available in the
soil, care should be taken to plant
where the soil is rich in this plant
food element. Clover sod, If broken
and sown to some spring crop that
requires good tiIlage will yield
q profitable wheat crop.
''Plow early for wheat" is q
maxim that should not be forgot
ten. Wheat land must be plowed
early to give ample time for pre-
paration of tho seed bed, which
must be good and 6rm. Large
yields arc often not possible, even
in favorable seasons, because Of
the poorly prepared seed beds.
Ono must not give heed to the
number of times the land is bar-
rowed. but keep going until thl
ground is in the right condition.

The Last Of the Volunteers.

With the mastering ont of the
last of the IS, 900 volunteers enlist
ed for service in the Philippines,
the great army called into being
by the Spanish war passes into

The record of the army is one
of which Americans must ever feel
proud. When war was declared
with Spain we had but q small and
insufficient regular army. 1t was
necessary to call upon the young
men of the country to rally around
the flag. The character of the re.
sponse was such as to reassure any
tloubter Of the stability of Amerii-
can institutions. In every state Of
the union there was an instant offer
Of more men than the government
could accept. 1t furnished occasion
for the young men OF the south,
the sons of gray-headed confederate
vetcrane, to show that while they
were true to the traditions of their
fathers they were also sincere and
ready in their purpose to bold slofl

foreign enemy, and to give their
lives, If need be, to enhance thu
glory of the American union.
