SMALL FIRE
Discovered and ExtinguiShed Before
Making Headway.

Smoke was seen issuing from the
roof of Goddard's saloon Saturday
afternoon. No blaze could be seen
and it required considerable search
to locate the seat of the fire.
A crowd quickly gathered, form
ing a bucket, axe and ladder
brigade. Quite a stiff breeze was
blowing, and had the fire gained
much headway it is doubtful if any
building in the block could have
been saved-at any rate between
the alley and Front street.
The fire was found to be in a
sawdust-flled partition, where a
door had recently been cut through
and other alterations made. After
being located it was extinguished
without difficulty. How it origin
ated is not known.

To Return Soon,

L A. Underwood on Friday re.
ceived letter from G. e. Miller
stating that he and his family
would leave Murphysboro, Ill.,,
about April 10 on their return trip
to Mountain Home. Last Novem.
ber, it will be remembered, Mr.. and
Mrs. Miller and their three child
rem left Pine for a short visit to
their former home in the east. They
came here on account of the health
of the little ones, having lost child
about three years ago. Their
home visit proved to be unusually
sad, death claiming two more
children 3 year-old Bessie and
1-year-old Theodore breathing
their last within less than an hour
and half, on February 16. One
daughter now remains to the be.

The following year Mr.. Clark
settled here, taking an active in.
terest in political and all public
matters, especially local issues.
Through DR.. Harper he was closely
connected with irrigation projects.
He organized and had charge of
the Fruitdale Co. He was the

the Clark place; also the property
where w. J. Turner now lives.

Fair, large department store. Two
years later, his associates dispos-
ing of their interests, Mr.. Clark
went to New Whatcom (now Bell.
ingham) to assume similar duties
in connection with the same gem
tlemen, where he remained until
his death.
Mr.. Clark is survived by a widow,
very estimable and highly cul-
tured lady, who has the respect of

selves Proud.

"They came, they saw, they"
loaded up with shekels. Silver
and gold and currency, took they,
to the number of many ducats.
They were the whole thing last
Friday night at the opera house.
Nearly everybody was there, and
was glad of it. This was manifest
by the encouraging applause which
greeted the boys and girls of the
High School who, individually and
collectively, entered into the forma-
ton of "Topp's Twins"
The young folks did themselves
proud, each and all of them; and
more especially when it is remem.
bered that they had very little time
in which to rehearse their parts.
They began about one month ago,
meeting twice for practice the first
week and three times week after
ward until the date fixed for the
play-about eleven rehearsals in
all.
The receipts totaled to $141.75
which will probably leave the
boys over 500 clear with which to
purchase a baseball outfit.
The boys are under great obliga-
tions to the girls, who so ably as
sisted in the venture. The former
realize this, and, in token of their
appreciation, the young ladies were
given an outing last Sunday, Mrs.
J. W. Nieukirk chaperoning the
party to Canyon Creek. Those
participating were James Pence,
Ed Manion, VIM. Wells, Albert
Marhofer, Joe Long'ellow, Robert
Chattin, Ethel Bennett, Rose Mel
son, Chrissie Mahoney, Mabel

Lucky Old Party.

Cass County Democrat: From Des
Moines comes the cheering informa-
ton that II. G.. Evans, son-in-law oil
"Jim" Weaver, "Abe" Weaver, son
of "Jim" Weaver and Hearst EN-
ploye, Charlie Walsh, sister-in-law OF
"Jim'' Weaver and also Hearst en-
ploye, George Keinehart, second cous-
in of Jim" Weaver, and who enjoys
the unique distinction of having eds
covered" Hearst, whatever that may
mean, f. w. Currie, aunt-in-law OF
Jim" Weaver, another Hearst en-
ploye, and divers others who profess
to be democrats, are about to reor-
ganize, revivify and rejuvenate the
democratic party in this state, and in
order to do it they are going to give
one w. M. Ward, who is u newspaper
man out of work, the job of organic
ing the counties, townships, school
districts, etc.
Fortunately or unfortunately for the
democratic party, the supply of wet
nurses is always equal to all demands
the sickly infant may make upon it,.
There is always Weaver with a spec
ial concoction, an Evans with a new
brand of soothing syrup, Rhinehart
with new design of porous plaster,
and Walsh with full complement
of quack nostrums, whenever the par
ty breathes hard or talks in its sleep
Out this way democrats are refusing
to grow excited over party organiza-
ton, or reorganization, with the near
est election eighteen months away.
The membership of the party is not
lying awake of nights SO that they
will be up in time in the morning in
time to meet the special envoy sent out
by the Des Moines aggregation to tell
them what to do. They have, as a
matter of fact had about all of the
Weaver and Evans leadership they
care about.
This paper has no objection to these
worthless earning good salaries from
Hearst or anybody else foolish enough
to employ them. They have been on
the "move along now' order so long
that a man who couples a barrel to
his political ambitions is godsend
to them. 1t enables them to keep the
wolf from the dpor and tn tShinpc aS
political "leaders. " But they will
confer favor on the rank and file by
permitting them to attend to their own
personal affairs for year or so yet.
1t will be time enough to organize
when the issues are more clearly de-
fined. We refuse to grow excited over
the rejuvenating fluid Evans and
Weaver and Walsh and the others
propose injecting into Iowa demo-
Gratis.

The subject of the state creating a
hospital for the treatment of consump-
tives, will come before the next legis-
lature. 1t was up year ago, and
came near carrying. Public opinion
is more favorable to it now than be-
fore. There has been some education
along this line. We believe opinion
is coming to require that the state pro-
vide place to treat in the latest and
most approved scientific way unfortu-
nate people who are stricken with this
malady. 1t takes peculiar treatment
1t is durable, if taken in time, and
rightly treated. If neglected, other
lives are endangered, Both philan-
thropy and economy urge the state to
take up this work in a moderate way
at least.

mend Gov. Cummins in his able pre-
sentation of Iowa's prevailing opinion
on the government regulation of
freight rates before the senate COM
mittee on interstate commerce. We
are glad that our congressman, Judge
Smith, supported the Esch-Townsend
bill, and glad that both our United
States senator's favor government
regulation. The time is here when
something definite ought to be done
on this very important subject. The
public has rights as we'll as the cor

two clash the government should de-

Now the papers are saying Paul
Morton is misfit in a cabinet posit-
ion. We did not like his appointment
What did he know of naval affairs?
What did he know of political life? A
man with no experience in public life
and with no party service, novice in
the business, he ought never to have
been appointed. To be sure he was a
successful man in the operating de-
partments of big railroads, but that
is no sign of qualification for high
political position.

The Glidden Graphic wants Gov.
Cummins nominated for third term.
1t admits it does not know whether
the governor would consent. To his
friends it is known he did not desire
the biennial to carry, so far as he
was personally concerned, as he wish
ed to get out of the governors Office
and look after his private business.
If he did not want one year more for
private reasons, he surely would not
want two more. The Graphic may be
able to show it's enthusiasm for the
governor but it is not at all likely
that the governor could be induced to
take another nomination for governor.

There are some things in American
history which are calculated to puzzle
the young student. For instance,
bright lad asked us this week why it
was that John Brown was hung and
jeff Davis pardoned, for, according to
his view of the right of the case, it
should have been just the reverse of
this. And the boy was right.
