AFTER THE BATTLE.

The Eastern campaigns are decided
ly strunuous compared with the easy
going western method. The follow
ing diary of an Indiana politician tolls
the story:
Lost four months and % days, 345
hours of sleep thinking about the cleo
tion, twenty-three acres of corn, four
sheep, five hogs, two front teeth and
some hair. Gave away 996 plugs OF
tobacco, 13,s4S drinks of whiskey,
2,34S glasses of beer, seven Sunday
School books, two pair suspenders,
four calico dresses, eight dolls and
twenty-five baby rattles: told $3.50
lies, shook hands ,53S times, talked
enough to have made in print 1900
volumes the size of the patent office
reports, kissed l26 babies, cut three
cords OF wood, was bitten three times
by dogs, and baby broke my watch
which cost me So to get mended,
Loaned out three barrels of flour,
twenty bushels of meal, twenty-seven
pounds of butter, $50 pounds of pork,
twelve dozen eggs, 100 lead pencils,
ten bibles, two hoes, and seven boxes
of paper collars. Called my opponent
liar for which paid 81 doctor bill,
made II promises which l failed to
keep, which cost me ga to settle, be-
sides losing 40 friends; had an argu-
mcnt with my wife, the result OF
which | broke a vase, ruined one shirt
bosom, had two handfuls OF whisker'
pulled out, and ten cents worth Of
court plaster, besides spending $50 il
hard cash. DEFEATED.

The REPUBLICAN desires to oiler
a word of commentator for Mr., y. g..
Barber, chairman of Cache democracy,
We have come in contact with phases
of the campaign that lead us to belicVe
Mr.. Barber was rather conscientious
and conducted campaign as free
from Objectionable features as was
possible. His expressions and actions
were always gentlcmanly and we are
inclined to feel that his attitude lent
a dignity to the campaign that could
not have been with it otherwise. Mr..
Barber deserves the gratitude of his
party members and the respect OF all
others.

The Credit.

W. II. Thain, as county chairman,
is probably more responsible for the
glorious republican victory in Cache
than any other man. On nm de-
VOWED the task of organizing, work
ing out a plan Of campaign and seeing
that it was carried through 10 success
That he is equal to the emergency Is
testified to in that 1000 majority Tor
Roosevelt and the election OF the
entire republican ticket in THIS coun-
ty.
This was a great, grand, g-a-l-o-r-l-
Gus victory, all that the most parti-
san republican could have asked Tor
and almost beyond his hopes, and IL Is
but fitting that republicans should re-
connie in Mr.. THAN the wedge that
separated democracy from Cache
county oflicialdom. Mr. THAN con-
Quoted clean, orderly, thoroughly
aggressive campaign and it won on its
merits. Like a good general he Sc
lected able assistants, an Executive
committee composed of Messrs Thorn
as Smart, Fred Turner, Jos. j. Rich
ardson, II. Bullen, Jr., j. G. Walters,
los. A. Smith, J. A. Hcndricksen,
Sidney O. Stevens; and Finance COM
mittee made up of j. A. IIendrcksen,
Thomas Smart, f. w. Robinson,
Robert Murdoch, Sorcn Hansen.
These gentleman share with Mr..
THAN the honors of the glorious VIC
tory, for their advice and counsel was
unquestionably of great worth.
While Mr.. THAN is certainly desery-
ing of the lions share of the praise,
every republican in any minor Official
capacity is deserving of that greeting
well done thou good and faithful SER
want: enter into the Joys you have
won" And every man in this county
who did no more than cast his vote
right should take unto himself a por-
tion of the glory there is in this great
victory. There is enough for all and
more too. without the aid of pre-
cinct chairman; city chairman and
individual workers, Mr. THAN and
the big committee could have accom-
plished little.
So let us all take our share and
grant to the other fellow his due.
! The REPUBLICAN feels that 1t did
the best it could under the circum'
stances. and some have been kind
enough'to say that that best" was
all that could have been desired.
Let's shake hands all round and gel
ready for the next tight-its only two
years off-and you people who imagine
this blow will Kill democracy wer'
never more sadly fooled in your life
They will be up kicking with all thei
might two years from now, so dom
forget IL.

the cows are ten times as great as
from the horses, why not provide pure
bred dairy sires?
The dairy output in Cache Valley
by the use of good sres, cav be
doubled in ten years This can not
be accomplished by the use of Short
horn and Herefold bulls. 1t is just as
sensible to hunt chickens with a bull
dog, as to try and secure milk from a
Hereford. There are few good dairy
sires among the ShOrthornS, but TO
secure one is TO take chances at lot
terry. There are more poor mixers
among them than good ones.
The dairy man should select good
sireS from among the Jerseys, Guern-
seys, Aryshires or Holsteins. Select
sires of strong constitution and of the
dairy type. Horsemen do not select
trOttcrS from draft breeds, and why
should dairy sires be selected from
beef breeds?
A good pure breed dairy bull in a
section is worth as much in dollars
and cents as any other kind of pure
bred sire, and in the Cache Valley, at
the present time, he is worth more.
What is true of the dairy conditions
in Cache Valley is true of the dairy
conditions throughout the State.
Secure good dairy sires; give the
cows the best of care and Utah will be
of the most profitable dairy sections
i'm the United States.

Before all things political are re-
legated to the rear and forgotten.
The REPUBLICAN desires TO give Mr..
John Barrett, city chairman, a mead
of praise for the splendid manner in
which he conducted the Logan end of
the campaign. From the very minute
that he was made chairman he was in
the fray with all his well-known
energy, and the result in this city is a
monument to his capacity and that
of the efficient helpers with which be
surrounded himself. John was There
with the goods" so to speak and left
no stone unturned that could bring
success to the G. O. =. Logan isn't
an easy city to handle by any means
and Mr. Barrett deserves every credit
and commentator for. the faithful
performance of the duties that in
volved upon him.

The Beet Industry.

Those not inclined TO offer great
deal OF encouragement to home in
duStry, urge that beet raising is not
conducive OF good to children. 1t is
said that this industry keeps the boys
and girls from school, etc. This
ground is not well taken for there are
but two periods when children can be
used to any advantage in the beet
fields. During the season Of thinning,
boys aud girls can be of the greatest
service, but the thinning of bcets is
done in the summer when the schools
are not in Session The average
parent will agree that it is best for
their boys and girls to be employed at
this time rather than on the streets
indulging in habits which may not be
for their best good. During this
time the boys earn few dollars with
which TO buy clothing, etc. The Other
time when the boys and girls are Of
service is in harvesting Of the beets
and it must be admitted that thi'
occupies two or three weeks tina
could be spent protitably in school
However, If the student is inclined Il
apply himself, this little absence cut
but slight figure.
Such argument should not be use
to discourage the beet industry,
The installation of sugar factorie
followed by the beet culture is one O
the greatest blessings ever thrust uE
on a people. Every measure intro
duced to aid in any way the promo
ton OF such enterprises should recciv
the unqualified support of the people
We have but one factory in thi
county and there is enough good lant
TO supply two more. When electri

TO glance at the majoritieo given
the various legislative candidates, and
not stop to figure the majorities in
the only legitimate way leaves wrong
impression. For instance VIM. II.
Vaughan is accredited with majority
of 623, while in truth he is entitled to
but 6lO. Likewise T, II. Merrill and
ID. II. Roberts are credited with ma
ioritieS of but 376 and 37S and are I'M
questionably entitled to 572 and 500
respectively. The three candidates
received l73S votes more than their
opponents. or this Mr.. Vaughan is
entitled to fraction, Roberts to an
other, Merrill the rest. This tigur-
ing, which is correct, gives the ma
joritieS stated above. Mr.. Vaughan
was not Mr., Leatham's opponent,
Roberts the opponent of Ballard, nor
Merrill the opponent of Miles. The
matter is Iree-fOr-all in which the
three receiving the largest number OF
votes are elected. We make this cX.
PLANTATION that Mr.. Merrill and Mr..
Roberts may not be placed at any
disadvantage which should not be
their portion.

roads encircle the county and the
long haul by teams is eliminated, the
farmer will be induced to plant more
beets. Asst is today the long team
hauls is a back set to the industry,
as the farmers cannot possibly deliver
very large amounts from a long dis
lance. When the time comes for the
electric roads to be built in this coun-
ty the people should aid such an I'M
provemcnt in every way possible.

Just to Laugh.
HE COULDN'T SEE IT.


Mr. Jones bought an old eve and her
two little lambs for his children. One
day John came to his father and said:
"Pa, Just went over to the yard and
found one o. them little lambs dead"
"Never mind, my boy, the hand of
the Lord is in it. The other lamb Will
do better now" replied Mr.. Jones.
About week later John found
another lamb dead. He hurried to
his father and exclaimed, Now
something has killed that other lamb,
Paw
"Well, the hand of the Lord is in
IT. The old eve will get fat and then
we can kill her and have some nice
mutton, answered his father
Not more than another week had
passed when John came with the news
that the old eve was dead. Mr.. Jones
now became quite serious and after
signing he spoke: The hand OF the
Lord is in it, but I'll be d If | can
see it.

Start Right.

1t is not very difficult in these days
of improvement, and especially in sec
tions where the price of land is hover
ing around the 800 mark, to convince
the wide awake farmer that nothing
but the best of stock will pay him.
If it be true that man can raise and
feed inferior cattle and hogs on
quarter section of land valued at from
$4,000 to 20, 900 it is a paradox indeed.
The facts are, as the farmer is coming
to know through force of circum-
stances, that he can not afford to
spend ms time and use his high prize
ed land in raising anything short of
the best. There has been great
deal of time and money worse than
wasted by the man who has shut his
eyes to these things and gone on year
after year and neglected TO carry out
that improvement which he himself
has long since known to be necessary.
A very few cattle indeed can be proht'
ably kept on quarter or an eighth OF
land, and do we not exhibit great dea
of shortsightedness when we permit
an inferior animal TO Craze the grass
eat the high priced feed, and shelte
i'm barns built of high priced lumber
and sold at a loss, when by littl
outlay OF money with which TO star
the money would be doubled ant
trebled?
The fact is being realized by man
thinking farmers the country ovel
and a change Is seen TO be OF the NJ
most Importance. And it is just a
I this point that we wish TO drop
word which we believe will be helpful
S We can save ourselves many hours c
t regret and many dollars loss by start
ing right. 1t is at this point that tn
0 opportunity is afforded and too man
5 indeed have made the mistake of act
ing penny wise and pound foolish.

A trip through any of the settle

ought to convince the most skeptical

Cache Valley produces about $780,
600 worth OF dairy products and about
$4,000 worth Of horses per year
Nearly every settlement in the valley

Remedy for Nose Bleed.

For nose bleed there is an old-fash-
loned remedy which we can thorough
ly recommend. The juice OF one or
two lemons is to be squirted up into
the nose with good rubber syringe.
1t should be applied to the side of the
nose from which the blood appears.
This is almost certain 70 stop nose
bleed. II 1t does not do so, packing
the nose with cotton soaked in lemon
Juice is to be thought of.
