Hard Smash.

Idaho Falls Times (Rep. says:
The supreme court has handed
down decision denying the writ
Of prohibition asked for, and bonds
may be issued to pay the sugar
bounty. It holds that the proposed
issuance of bonds would not increase
the debt of the state; that public
revenues may be appropriated by
the Legislature, land that it is not
necessary that funds should be'in
the treasury at the time to meet the
same. What precedent To estab-
fish! The taxpayer is given to
understand that appropriations can
be made at any time, as the consti-
tuition recognizes other methods Of
raising revenue than that by tax
levy on real and personal property,
but the other methods are not
quoted and the average man knows
nothing of it. 1t is the peoples
money that is used and the man
with ordinary intelligence don't take
to the procedure. We wanted the
sugar bounty to be paid, for the
state had obligated itself to perform
that duty, but nevertheless the de-
cision of the court brings out that
which savOrs of anything but wise
Legislation. The Capital News,
while perhaps little farfetch ed i'll

planning conditions as the unin-
formed outsider sees. them. in this
language:
4 Boys, when yon come TO the CAPT
tai next winter to legisl4te for the
dear people, provide Yourselves with
scoop shovels and canvas bags.
The door of the treasury vaults is
wide open, and the watch dog is se-
eurely chained in the cellar. There
will be something doing every day,
and 1t won't be quarreling over how
to draw interest on the treasury
surplus, either.

Chimes Of St. canice's, Kilkenny.

The chimes in old Kilkenny, how they
sweetly rang OF yore,
On the quiet Sabbath mornings by the
green banks OF the More,
Beneath the fragrant hawthorn trees
that fringed narrow lane,
We lads and lasses gathered round to
hear the sweet refrain.
tcss,ss,, ,, ,,.s.,-'s,s. y .'a'F 'IsS
Are they ringing, sweetly ringing, as
they used to long ago?
Sometimes pealing loud and strident,
or in cadence soft and low,
Piercing forests dark recesses, echoing
in the fairy dells,
Through old ivied ruins vibrating,
where the proving night bird
dwells.
Are the boys and girls still listening,
as the old familiar notes,
Waited far by gentle breezes, over hill
and valley float?
bluullS every care TO VANISH, bearing
hope to hearts downcast,
Telling of a brighter future and the
blessed peace at last.
Though since mine ears were glad
dened there have passed score
OF years.
Often like CLEAN of sunshine that
olden scene appears
How the rich enhancing music our
guileless bosoms thrilled,
Those memories will cling to me till
life's forever stilled.
OFT in fancy have I heard them on the
prairies OF the West,
In the deep and gloomy canyons, and
upon the mountains crest,
How l revel in those visions of the
bygone happy times
When we gathered meath the haw-
thorn hedge to listen to the
chimes.

The Man to Avoid.

Henry Clews. the oldest banker in
Wall street, says in recent magazine
article: The following blacklist l
have had throughout my entire bust
ness career points the kind of man to
be avoided:
Who vilihes his benefactor.
Who uniustly accuses others of bad
deeds.
Who never has good word for any
body.
Who is always prating about his own
virtues.
Who boasts OF the superiority OF his
family.
Who talks recklessly against the
virtue of respectable women.
Who borrows small sums on his
note or check dated ahead.
Who won't work for an honest liv-
ing.
Who looks down on those who do.
Who imputes bad motives to those
trying to do good
Who betrays confidence.
Who dishonest only for policy's sake
Who deccives his wife and boasts
OF it to others.
