SHORT SKIRTS TO DRIVE OUT
 BIG HATS.

The big hat craze is at present much discussed among millinery people. The streets abound in shocking examples or the right hat on the wrong people. and the question may be asked, how long will it last? I believe that the present season will see some reaction against very large hats, and the year VIII see them at least confined to their proper province as the prescriptive rlght or the tall woman. But I shall ex- pect to see the big hat tide ebb further than that. By all that is reasonable and tasteful. the short skirt should Go much to drive out the big hat

To Work

There was jolly time in Weiser
Wednesday evening The event was
the initiation of several new members
into the order by Weiser camp, M.
W. A., assisted by large delegation
from Payette camp. 1t occurred
in Odd Fellows hall. Members of
Weiser camp had been quietly pre-

weeks. and extendedran invitation to
their Payette neighbors to assist in
the work. Payette camp responded
nobly, twenty y-nine members came
down on the evening train. They
we're met at the depot by the Weiser
delegation and escorted to the hotels.
The camp was called to order ct the
usual hour-about eight-and after
dlsposing of the regular order of
business, the gavel was surrendered
to Payette camp to conduct the india
ton ceremonies. The team of Payette
camp is one of the very best in the
state, and the way they did the work
made lasting impression upon all
present especially the candidates.
The initiation ceremonies were con-
cluded about one o'clock, when the
announcement was made-in loud
voice-that the ladies of the Royal
Neighbors had swooped down upon
the camp with lots of good things
to eat. 1t was joyful surprise and
everybody was equal TO the occasion.
The lunch was hugely enjoyed, after
which the time was spent in social
chat and merriment until the arrival
of the east bound train which convey
ed our Payette neighbors to their
homes.

TIE manifesto sent out from Sioux
Fasfs last week, purporting TO come
from the Scandinavian Republican
League, seems TO have been intended
as blow at the Scandinavians OF the
state and the republicans as we'll. To
begin with, .the leading Scandinavian
candidate for the republican nomina-
tion of governor was completely ig-
nored and Mr.. Crawford commended
instead. The leading members of the
league, including its secretary, Mr.. G.
FL. Kiland OF Sioux Falls, whose duty
it would be to call any meeting OF the
league, knew nothing about the meet
ing until it was all over and are now
ready to repudiate its action. The new
officers are nearly all populists and
democrats and the ssleague" named as

Scandinavian republicans OF Brookings
and Minnehaha counties have already
repudiated such underhanded and
misleading tactics, and their course
will undoubtedly be followed generally
by ScandiDavians throughout the state
who may be relied upon to insist upon
fair and abOye-board methods. This
whole scheme, Matched out in Brook
ings and Sioux Falls by little group
of populists, has already overreached
itself and will do the tottering cause
it was intended to bolster up more
harm than good. II Mr.. Crawford
wants the democratic nomination he
should say so, and not allow his manag-
ers to attempt to deceive Scandina-
Wan republicans through false pre-
lenses.

pensive luxury of the best system OF

warrants are nearly always at par. We
have built many elegant street cross

street crossing, not single public inn
provement can be pointed out that was
procured with the license money paid
by the saloons. Business was never so
good when we had saloons AZ 1t has
been since we banished them. The
people who have money to spend In
saloons, usually do not have any to
spend any where else and what they
spend at the saloon often makes them

are paid 10 city warrants for their la
