Dan Anthony, Kansas
Fighting Editor

Col. Dan Anthony's way of illustrating
"life's little ironies," says the New
York World.
Anthony, a brother of Susan B.,
was a Kansas editor. He went to the

put to bed.
After a short sleep Anthony woke
to ask the nurse what time it was.

dead by $780,"
Once, in 1875. a rival editor, Mr.

TYPHOID GERMS.

from 40 per cent to 25 per cent of

not also be a good thing to make a

THE SIMPLE LIFE"

Just now, while the dispatches are
alive with President Roosevelt's pub
lie Endorsement of Prof. Charles
Wagner's new book. "The Simple
Life" it is pertinent to inquire into
the philosophy of this book that has
made such an impression on the i'm
pulsive Roosevelt.
At a lecture by Wagner in Wash
ington Tuesday afternoon, the pres
ident introduced the speaker. saving
that it would be the last time during
mis- term as president that he would
introduce public speaker.
What, then. is the brand of phil
osophy that has excited so deeply the
admiration of Roosevelt. who is a lit
erary genius of no mean ability? Per-
haps the first chapter of the book is
true index to the general lines of
thought it contains.
Here is a typical extract from chan
ter l:
FROM the cradle to the grave. in his
needs as in his pleasures, in his con-
eeption of the world and himself the
modern man struggles through a |
maze of numberless complications
Nothing is simple now, neither
thought nor action, amusement or |
even death.
We have with our own hands add
ed train of difficulties to existence
and cut off many pleasures. 1 am
persuaded that at the present mo-
ment there are thousands of nv fell
low-beings who suffer from a too ar
aificial life.
They will be grateful to those who
seek to give expression to their dis
comfort and encourage them in the
regret for the simplicity which works
In their mind expressing them vague
ly.
Let us enumerate first a series of
facts which put into relief the truth
We wish to show.
The completely of life appears in
the multiplicity of our material needs.
One of these universally conceded
phenomena of this country is that our
needs have kept pace with our pro-
KreRg That 10 L., /
The birth of certain needs, mark. In
Iact progress. 1t is a sign of su-
periority to feel the need of bathing
to wear fresh linen, to inhabit whole
some houses, to eat healthful food.
and to cultivate the mind.
But, If there are certain needs
whose birth is desirable and which
have right to live, there are others
which exercise a harmful influence.
and exist at our expense, like para
sites. 1t is the number and the i'm
perious character of these which pre-
occupy our minds.
III our forefathers had been told
that one day humanity would have
at Its disposal all the engines OF which
Ii Is possessed TO maintain and defend
its material existence, they would
have concluded mt first that there
would be an augmentation OF indie
pendence, and in consequence happi-
ness.
And, In the second place, a sensible
decrease in the competition of the ne a
ressities OF life. 1t would even have a
been permitted them to think that d
he simplification of existence, result
ng from these perfected means of ac- =
ion, would bring the realization of a h
higher morality. 4

MEETING ! CALLED
FOR TONIGHT
Commercial Club May Take
Action With Reference to
Thunder Mt. Trail

In response to the appeal made to
the people of this section for funds for
the purpose Of building and fixing a
trail from Dixie to Thunder Mountain
there will be a meeting tonight OF the
Commercial Club for the purpose of
considering the matter and appointing
committees to solicit the necessary sub
scriptions Much interest is being
taken in the project and it is likely
that the meeting will be well attended
All those who are interested in the
matter are invited to attend the meet
ing and advance any views that might
have on the matter.
The object as published in The Teller
last night is a worthy one and should
be supported by the people of this
section. From the claims made by
those who are mostly interested it is
stated that the proposed route is nearer
than any other route connecting with
a rail point and Is much better route
to travel both in summer and winter.
Walter Hovey Hill. the well known
engineer, who Is thoroughly conversant
with the several routes to the Thunder
Mountain district today stated that he
was familiar with the Dixie route and
that he believed 1t was the only prac-
teal route to the great mining district
and is surprised that the Dixie route
has not been looked upon more fully
before this ;.
1t Is understood that $500. will be all
that is necessary for the making of ad-
ditional trails besides fixing up rough
points along the road. 1t is estimated
that the route mapped out is about 146
miles( between Sites and Roosevelt
Between Sites and Dixie, a distance
OF 76 miles there is a good wagon road
There Is also good wagon road from
Dixie to Comstock mill distance of
I miles. The trail between the Com
stock mill and Ramey's ridge which is
one the other side OF the Salmon river
Is about IS mileS and from this point
to the mouth of Monumental creek it is
about s miles. From this point to
Roosevelt 1t is about rs miles. The
money required will be used for the
fixing up of points along the trail be-
tween the Comstock mill and Cham
Deriain caoin distance OF twenty
seven miles.
It IL understood that this route
would be welcome one owing to the
fact that In winter time there 10 less
snow slide in the country than over any
other trail. 1t is also stated that route
Of the trail il such that wagon road
may be constructed at any time At a
very slight cost. That this matter is
Of vital importance to the business and
commercial interests Of the. city OF
Lewiston 10 not denied and the estab.
lishment Of this trail permanently
would place this city In line for the
general point OF distribution Of supplies
which is now claimed by towns in the
southern portion Of the state. It is
urged that as many as those interested
In the matter attend the meeting to-
night at the Commercial club.
