Do Not Worry.

Let your soul never be disturbed, ig-
more what worry is. Ifan affair does
not succeed as well rs you expected,
you must rejoice before God at every
thing He is pleased to do. The things
that appear most important to nature
are only tritles in the estimation of a
christian, because nothing has any i'm
portance for him except what God
wishes. Trouble and worry are for
hell; the children of God ought not to
know them. Work in all peace and
tranquility; do your utmost according
to the nature OF the things by which
you are surrounded, and to the crcum-
stances in which you find yourself !;
leave the rest to the care of Gods PrOvi.
dence. If He is pleased to crown your
labors with success, rejoice before Him
and give Him most humble thanks: if
on the other hand, everything goes
wrong, bless Him still with your whole
soul. A christian who acts thus al
ways passes his life in peace, in JOY and
happiness. At the end Of this mi-cr-
able life, which is of little account,
there will come happiness of which !
will not undertake to speak to you for
fear of not doing SO worthily.-EX.

Don't Like Hunt.

The Kooskia Inter ountaineer
published by Hugh O'Donnell was
formerly democratic paper, but
it refuses to stand for Hunt and it
d fines its position in the following
caustic language:
''Are the papers that opposed
Gov. Hunt before the convention
going to support him now? is the
question asked by many of our
state exchanges. We think not.
If Hunt was unfit for governor OF
this state before the convention
took place, he is unfit now. The
very fact of his winning out in the
convention does notremedy matters
a particle. Hunt is a political
trickster, wholly unfit for the posi-
ton he occupies, and his defeat at
the polls next November will be
hailed with delight by all fair
minded people. Let us have MAN
for governor.

1T is THE DUTY OF REPUBLICANS,

The campaign is now on and it
must be run on business principles.
Oh Iii man Goo ling and Secretary
McColluni are business men and
can do it. But it will take cash to
run it. Every republican who has
a dollar fer the cause and wishes
to continue Mckinley prosperity
should contribute it. You can't
ruu a campaign on wind.
Mr.. Coco ing has the party well
organized and thoroughly harmon
lied throughout the state. Every
school house, every town hall mus t
he visited. All hands must be
united to elect the state and county
tickets. 1t is a republican ticket
of all the republicans and if it is
defeated no one but the democrats
will gloat over the sweeping dem
ocratic gains;" there wont be
independent voters" protesting
then. The democratic orators will
unbuckle their lungs and your
democratic neighbors will sheer at
the poor old republican party if
this state goes wrong, even If re-
publican votes send it wrong.
But it is going right-dead right.
Gooding, Ruick, McCollum and a
strong committee of organized
republicans and a big army of re-
publican voters are going to keep
this state right; right on governor
right on congressman, right on
every man on county tickets.
This is a republican year. 1t is
the sun-up of the big day two years
from now. and don't you forget it.
