WORK PROGRESSING

Mr.. DeLong is stayingi in Salt Lake

Between 700 and 500 men are now

canal, is very busy place. Two
general stores are nearly completed,

Soda Season Opened.

T. M. Starrh the popular drug
gist donned his little white jacket
Tuesday and opened up his soda
fountain, and as the weather has
been quite warm is enjoying good
trade.
There has never been a time in
the history Of soda water when the
demand is SO general, and never a
time when the capacity and the
ability of the dispenser was tested
to so great a degree. No dispenser
can afford to serve from his counter
a single glass OF soda water that is
not up to the requirements and it
behooves him to keep himself sup
piled with the most modern appar-
tus and the best requirements for
service that money will buy, and
Mr.. Starrh has done this by placing
in his store one OF the best fount-
aims obtainable, and is better pre-
pared this season thar ever to look
after this trade and he would be
pleased to receive a friendly call
from you.

fiow 70 Greet the President.

The average citizen does not
have opportunities enough OF greet
ing real, live president to be well
up on the etiquette OF the occasion,
SO that few words of advice may
not be amiss.
Your principal part in the cere-
mony is to use your eyes and lungs.
In other words, rubber and howl.
1t makes little difference what sort
OF a noise you make, for everybody
else viii be at it too, SO that your
individual contribution to the rae
ket will not be noticed. You are
not supposed to know what you are
yelling for, and it does not matter.
1t is simply a'means to show your
hospitality.
Perhaps it would be just as well
not to address the president as
Teddy, old boy" He would not
resent it, but others might. The
only folks that are presumed to adj
dress him in this familiar fashion
are those who write for newspapers.
The proper time to do the thrill
act is when the band is coming up
the street playing "Hail to the
Chief" Then. throw a few extra

chills when the police heave in
sight. Get it under the roots OF
your hair when you first see the
carriage, but save your wind until
you discern the cleaning teeth and
eyeglasses. Then let loose a yowl
, that will make the girl in front OF
you turn and gaze at you in appre-
hensive admiration.
Have all your children on the
front lawn as a mark of patriotism.
If you possess any bears or wild
cats do not let them be too much
in evidence. They may be pain
fully suggestive to his excellency.
Besides, it is said he carries a
gun. and the old nimrod instinct
may get the better of him.
During the speaking you are not
supposed to hear word. Nobody
ever does. But you may crowd
near enough to see the presidential
jaw working, and this will assure
you that everything is all right.
There will be a lot of mayors,
governors, cabinet officers, colonies
and other inconsequential people
about, but do not waste second
glance on these. When the sun
shines the stars have the good taste
to 60 away back and let people for
get about them. The political
woods are full of governors and
colsnels, but there is only one
president at time-except in
South America.
By the way, do not throw your
hat away in the excitement. There

it is. If you must wave anything,
tear a few rags out of your voice.

Reply to The "Peddler."

The person who wrote the article
appearing in the last issue OF the
Journal signed "Peddlern has q
wrong idea of the law to which he
referred and to the duties of the
commissioners in regard to it.
This law is house bill No. 50 OF the
Legislature of 1901, and is entitled
"An act to repeal Section 1861 of
of the revised statutes of the state
of Idaho and to provide for the
licensing OF peddlers; hawkers and
solicitors, and prescribing penalties
for failure to comply with the
provisions of this act"
The act provides that each ped
der on foot with a pack shall pay
a license Of not less than $25 nor
more than $50. Each peddler
with wagon or other vehicle shall
pay q license of not less than $50
nor more than 500. Each peddler
or solicitor taking orders for
groceries, clothing, hardware, or
other mercantile establishments
shall pay a license of not less than
$75 nor more than 1925 per year,
and no license issued under the
act to be for less period than one
year.
Section s of the act reads as |
follows: Applicable when. The
of this act shall not be
construed to apply to runners
for wholesale houses and
taking orders from merchants only
nor to peddlcrs or hawkers in farm
products"
Section 10 reads: "Duty of
1t shall be the
luty of the county commissioners
o fix the amount of said license
md the county auditor shall issue
aid license upon payment OF this

of the license were only h

The pump here was shut down
last week for repairs.
Vance Stowell the pumper met
with a very painful accident last
week, while using a steam hose to
clean up around the pump, the
nozzle blew out and the escaping
steam scalded him on the left arm
and right leg.
A Greek on the section here, had
the end of one of his fingers cut off
while helping the pump repairers
pull the tubing, he caught them in
the cog wheels.
Mrs. Bertha Stowell received the
sad news of her mother being seri-

little daughter Gladys departed
Tuesday night to see her mother

A PROPOSITION was brought
before the Irrigation Congress
held in Ogden this week to ask
Congress to pass a law issuing
bonds to the extent of one hun
dred and fifty or two hundred
million dollars to make avail
able funds for immediate use in
retaining the arid lands of the
West. What fate the resolution
met we are not able to state at
this writing.
1t seems as though the scheme
would be a good one for the
government to adopt. There is
not enough money in the irriga-
ton fund to do half what ought
to be done right away in the
way of reclamation. And the
money in the fund will not in
crease rapidly until the irriga-
ton systems proposed are COM
pleted and land can be taken up
and made productive under the
new irrigation act. There would
be no doubt about the govern
ment getting the money back,
which it would advance, just so
soon as the land began to be
taken up and partial payments
made on it. In fact, the act
stipulates that the payments
shall all be made inside of ten
years.
The irrigation and reclama-
ton proposition will work itself
out all right in time, now that a
start has been made, but it
would be a great advantage to
have the money to build reser-
voirs and canals right now. The
settlement Of the arid regions
with homeseekers would begin
Just so much sooner under a
plan of this kind than if the
homeseekers have to wait for
some years to come for the land
to be watered.

COST or LIVING AND WAGES.

Cost of living, according to
Dun's Index Number of Commo-
dity Prices, was $97.S91 on
August 1st, against $99.456 a
month previous and $1OO.177 a
year ago. The decline is quite
general, meats being lower than
at any time since November,
1901. And yet Free Traders
continue to claim that the cost
of living is constantly advancing
with no corresponding increase
in wages. The opposite, how
ever, is the case. 1t is true that
the cost of living is still higher
than during the last Free Trade
era, but suppose we carry our
comparison further back with a
view to finding the changes in
prices and wages. What to-day
costs $97.S91, in 1860 cost
$115.1O1; in 1870, $148. 781;
in 1880, $1Os.655. And yet who
will deny that wages are twice
what they were in 1860, or
much greater than in 1870 or
1880 or 1890? American
wages" says the New York
Times in a recent editorial, have
risen of late very rapidly and
largely"
Cost of living varies and f1uc-
tuates; but wages under Protec-
ton rise continually, rapidly
and largely" 1t is a condition
that follows Protection only,
and when such a condition exists
and its cause is known, why
interfere with that cause, but
let well enough alone.
