greatest Orators.

The greatest graft" on earth is the
one worked by advertising agents, and
it would be we'll for the country papers
throughout the west to turn them down
with dull thud. They make contracts
with country papers at rate Of about
one-quarter that charged local adver-
tisers, and nine times out of ten, st the
completion of the contract, beat them
out of about half of the money due on
a plea of incorrect position" and this,
too, after having had use of the money
without interest for year When it
is considered that in the aggregate this
amounts to hundreds Of thousands of
dollars annually, it will be seen what a
glorious snap these grafters have. -

An Error.

Last week, in writing up the
Montpelier Copper Mining and
smelling Co., we stated they had
ali eight foot vein of ore IN their
shaft. This is a mistake. 1t should
have been between three and four
feet. However, they have at places
ON the ledge eight feet Of miner
allied rock, and it was this that
caused us to make the error. But
this does not detract from the good
prospect in view for mine. -Four
feet of good pay ore, if maintained
for any depth means a pretty good
mine.

Attorney General Frank Martin
has been busy answering letters of
inquiry Of late.
Yesterday he answered one relat-
ing to the law In forming new school
districts. The questioner wanted
to know if it was necessary that
two-thirds of the people in pro-
posed new school district sign a
petition for its establishment. The
answer was that it takes but 10
qualified voters to have new dis
trlct ordered.
The last legislature changed this
law very materially. Formerly the
requisite for ordering a new school
district was that two-thirds of the
people sign an affirmative Petition;
the new Inv makes it 10. The new
law also makes it necessary that
two-thirds of the qualified voters of
= school district sign petition be
fore the boundaries may be changed
1t is suggested that the Trainer OF
the recent law made mistake, and
got the cart before the horse. IN
stead of only 10 being necessary tt
order a new district it is believed
two-thirds was meant and that II
might have the boundaries of al
old district changed. But the Law
IS changed and the attorney genera
so notified the anxious inquirer. =

cast for a difficult role in a new pro.
duction and his success or failure in
1t was a matter of vital Importance
10 his future reputation. After the
second act on the opening night his
friend, William Gilbert, the popular
dramatist and librettist, went behind
the scenes fully realizing that in a
kindly word or sympathetic criticism
he would bring hope or despair to the
actor. However, on seeing that his
friend was in profuse perspiration he
could not resist his own cleverness and
contented himself with merely re-
marking: "How well your skin acts"

scotch ulghianders Have Money.

There is more money in circulation
IN the Scotch highlands now than ever
there was and for that the crofters
have to thank the millionaire proprie
tor and sportsman. The advent of the
millionaire desirous of acquiring pleas.
ure grounds gave the OLD proprietors
their golden opportunity and many Of
them sold out. Then came the time
IF speculation as to the attitude of the
newcomers toward the native popula-
tion. Pessimists predicted all sorts Of
harsh treatment on the part of the
landlords. But the millionaires. as a
rule, proved to be of quite another
kind. They set themselves to the i'm
provement of their estates, employing
local labor whenever possible; did
what they could to establish local in
dustries of a permanent character;
made roads; improved ground; built
houses planted trees and spent money
lavishly all the while, not only keep
ing the tenants in their old homes.
but providing the work which brought
them better livelihood than they had
every enjoyed before.-Chicago News.
