John r. Mclean proprietor Of the Gin

for the sideboard-an advance Of 800 DER

was polite refusal. The saloon man said
that he could make more money out of it
in other ways.
Colonel Webb Hayes, U. g. A., who han

why EIectrlc Light Is COstIy.
While the electric motor is rapidly re-
placing all other methods Of power trans
mission and distribution, due to its greater
economy, electric power when used as q
source of light is still at disadvantage re-
garding economy, says Charles p. Stein
metz in The Electrical World and Engineer
expensive than gas or kerosene, and the
extensive use OF electric. light Is due rather
to its greater convenience. reliability and
cleanliness than to its economy.
This follows from the fact that the EN-
cheney Of producing light from electric
power is extremely low. below 10 per cent
In the most efficient carbon arc lamp and
something like 3 per cent in the incandes-
cent lamp and the Nernst lamp.
II is obvious, then, that II the efficiency
of light production could be raised to figures
even half as high as that of power produc-
ton, the electric light would sweep every
greater economy.

THE FOURTH.

With fair treatment from the
weather man, kalispells celebration
of the Fourth this year will surpass
anything Of the kind ever held in the
county. splendid card of races has
been arranged, and many good horses
ar now in training. Other very at
tractiye features have been provided
to fiji cut the day and a fine display
of fireworks will be given at night.
Last years eel ebrarion was spoiled
by the rain and those who were then
disappointed are invited to make up
for it this year by helping to make
kalisp Il S celebration the biggest
that ever was. Too many people
celebrate the Fourth in a perfunctory
manner without any thought Of the
real significance Of the day 1t is the
anniversary of the nations birth, but
few are they who realize the strug-
giles and vicissitudes that had to 'e
undergone by those who framed the
declaration of independence and took
part in its adoption on that memora-
Bile Fourth of July 127 years ago.
While We regard the Fourth as the
nations birthday the real destiny OF
the nation was wrought out in the
weeks just preceding that date in
177G. For months prior to that day
an element in the continental con
gra SIS small at first but gradually
grOwinE had been fighting to ire
vocably commit the congress- to the
Cause of Independence.
With the work of that day, their
hopes were realized and after that
there was no turning back, Those
who signed the document well knew
they were signing their death war
rant in case the cause failed.
The Declaration of independence
had to be framed and altered to meet
the views of the various members
ana when the docnm Mt was finally
adopted they had only reached the
starting point in the real srueS'C
