eyed, squaling youngster. There have
been ten thousand million better look
ing babies no doubt, for this particular
kid would, if it resembled its dad, be
neither handsome or have any OF

you would expect the editor to an

In the community get married to the
most worthless rascal out of Jail.
Would the public tolerate the truth?
Not on your life. When the paper ap-
pears she, is described as the town
belle, and he as a promising young
man Of integrity and ability. And
when death comes what happens?
Does the editor say that Hezikiah
Smith, whopassed away yesterday, was
the man who left Kansas in the night
to avoid meeting the sheriff? Or that
he was a stingy old rascal who would
blow in fifty cents for tobacco and kick
II his wife spent % cents for a new
dress? Does the editor mention that
deceased had a reputation for dishon-
esty, rascahty, and skuldugery second
to no other man in the community?
No sir. According to the obituary, Mr..
Smith was the soul of integrity, the
essence Of honor, and kind and low
ing husband.
AT this point our friend remembered
that his wife was waiting for him to re-
turn with bar Of soap before she
could finish the weekly wash, and with
visions of an irate woman, and better
understanding Of why editors are liars
he huniedly left just as we were pro-
ceeding to settle down to business and
explain why editor sometimes wander

WHY EDITORS LIE.

A friend Of ours came into The
News Office this week and after dis
cussing various topics he inquired of us
why it is that editors are such prof.
cient liars. His question being Of a
general rather than a particular nature.
we accepted it only as it related to edi
tors as class, and as this didn't iniure
our feelings very materially, we volun-
teered to give the desired information.
For the sake ol'argument we admit
ted that he was correct. But, said we.
what else could you expect? Does
not the public require that we news
paper men iie7 Does not our whole
education qualify and equip us as liars,
and has it not a tendency to make of
us the most proficient Of those who
know not the ways Of righteousness, and
who would not know the truth if we
met it in the road? And there is a
reason for all this. For example. nv
friend, suppose you should become the
fond father Of seven pound, squint

like the University or the proposed
asylum are not detriment to the
counties in which they are located.
Since the location of the State Univer-
sity in this county the members of the
state legislature have regarded it as a
local institution, and have, time after
time, used it as a club with which to
whip Latah representatives into line.
Unless the Latah members will sup
port every bill proposed, regardless Of
its merits, the threat is invariably made
that the University appropriation will
suffer. And what is true regarding the
University is true of the Normal schools
and every other public institution. The
particular county in which they are To-
Gated must fight continually for them.
and politicians juggle with them as
things created for political playthings.
The graiters and the treasury looters;
the designers, and those who have
boom bills, franchises and private inter
ests to promote, all take turn at the
game, and force the friends of these
institutions to compromise on terms
most humiliating. Legislators should
be free to support or oppose any
measure on its merits, and the quicker
public institutions are removed from
politics the better. Under existing
conditions does Latah county want any
more public institutions Iocated here?
One club over our heads is about
enough.

New Plan Started to Save Expense in
Storing Crop.

New Plan Started to Save Expense in
Storing Crop.
H. w. Richardson, one of the most
extensive wheat growers in Columbia
county, Washington, has inaugurated
an original feature to effect a saving
of nearly cents per bushel in secur-
ing and storing his crop. He conceiv-
ed the idea of constructing wooden
tanks at convenient points about his
fields to store grain until convenient
to haul to the railroads or warehouse
of the purchaser.
The tanks are constructed of 2x6
pieces standing upright and held in
position by iron bands or hoops. Each
tank is 10 feet deep and will hold $500
bushels. They are built above the
surface to enable a team to drive I'M
derneath to remove the grain. The
bottom is fitted with a spout and slide,
through which the grain can easily be
drawn into the wagon box, doing
away entirely with the lifting incident
to loading sacked grain.
