about three and one half miles
from the city limits. Two Of our
young men camped there Friday
night and after lighting a cheer
full fire partook heartily Of a
genuine bachelors supper, after
which they did Justice to a small
box of Havanas, sang songs and
told stories till a late bed time.
They did not say how they en-

inclined to believe that in their

forgot to provide for the morrow.
The boys had excellent luck, re-

Badly Ratified.

THE arguments which are
being put out at present in sup
port of MI. Carter for mayor
show that the Bailey Mcdonald
ring are getting badly ratified as
the prospect of the election of
their candidate grows daily more
and more hopeless.
For instance there's the argu-
ment that if Mr.. Gibbons is elect
ed enormous salaries will be paid
to all the city officials. This
smells very like the dead fish
the Mcdonald Bailey ring tried
to sell the people of Bemidji
when they attempted to defeat
the charter. Only it was the
charter that loaded the city down
with big salaries then, you know.
Everybody not crazed by despair
knows that the mayor of Be-
midi has nothing whatever to do
with fixing salaries; the council
does that. Mayer Gibbons will
be able to veto what salaries he
thinks are too big, but that's the
limit of his power.
Then too, Mr.. Gibbons will
levy terrible municipal tax,
bowls the Bailey Mcdonald ring.
Underline charter the mayor has
as much power to levy taxes in
Bemidji as has the King of the
Cannibal Islands. The council
attends to that and they will at
tend to it right, too.
Then the Bailey Mcdonald
ring are Mortified because Mr..
Gibbons is going to establish a
municipal court. In their
anxiety the ring overlooks the
fact that the mayor has as much
power to do this as he has to APP
point the members of the SUI
pceme court of the United
States.
If this thing keeps up until
election day there will be no use
Of electing a city council. The
Bailey Mcdonald gang will have
that body completely stripped Of

all it's powers.
The discovery that they can
not ''vote the people of Bemidji
any old time any way we please, :"
has driven the Bailey Mcdonald
faction mad. They are plumb
locoed.'' = *.-s~'t&s

As 10 Opticians.

The necessity Of parents being care
full in the selection Of opticians is fire.
quently evidenced, but not more
strongly than in little story told us
by Alexander the other day. The
child's name was not mentioned, nor
did we learn from Alexander the
name of the optician who fitted glasses
for the child, hence our recital Of the
matter can hardly be considered an
attack. Alexander told it, he was
called in to examine little girl of a
family in Logan whose finances are
not at the top notch. Both eyes Of
the girl were affected, and he held be-
fore her the test card containing let
tiers of different size. One OF these
letters is probably Aka and Mr.. Alex
ander was more than surprised that
with one eye the little girl was I'M
able to tell what that letter was at a
distance of four feet. He examined
the eye, came to the conclusion that
proper glasses would help the difficulty
and after EXPERIMENTATION placed over
that eye a combination of lenses that
enabled the little girl to read letters
four or five sizes smaller at distance
of ten feet. The optician who had
fitted the girl before whoever he may
have been, stated that this particular
could not be made 10 do service, so he
placed before it glass of practically
ordinary strength.
Mistakes occur even with the best
professional men, but if this optician
simply took advantage of the little
girl and family, or If ignorance or care
lessness entered into this failure, it is
to be regretted. Mr.. Alexander was
not talking for publication at the time
and his words may be accepted at
their face value.

just taken place, and which his per-
sonal organs have failed to chronicle,
says Truth. 1fthere isone place where
he claims TO be strong, 1t is in the
matter Of appointments in the post
Office department. So strong did he
consider himself that In order TO get
Congressman Howell on his side two
years ago, and to make him feel sure
that he would get decent treatment
from the senior senator, Tom told
Howell he would not interfere In post
Office matters outside Of Salt Lake
city. But few days ago he took into
his head that he would show Howell
how heavily he could be turned down
by the great Tom. Congressman How
ell had endorsed man for postmaster
at Vernal, Uintah county. Kearns
goes TO the postofice department and
says he does not want HowelPs man
appointed. He has man OF his own
who must have the place. HIN"
said the postoflice official, and Kearns
retired, feeling sure he had won.
Next day Congressman Howell was
seen vending his way TO the post
Office department. What occurred
there he hasn't divulged. But we will
tell il as it was given out after Mr..
Howell's departure by an official who
overheard the conversation. Mr.. How
ell was summoned by the department
to inform him what Kearns had done.
The congressman was also informed
that Toms act was regarded as
gross breach of official etiquette
not the first by long shetland
that under no circumstances would
the senior senator's meddling be toler-
ated. The outcome is that the man
endorsed by Congressman Howell gets
the place, while the man, Meese,
whom Kearns demanded should have
it, gets left. Toms influence now is
such that he can't get a little post
Office on the edge Of an Indian reser-
walton. And there are more and
heavier iolts in store for him.

We hear so much about forging to
the front, taking time by the forelock,
Selling the bull by the horns, and the
like, that the man with the tail hold
is entirely ignored says an exchange.
Nine men who wisely follow, succeed
where one does who charges around at
the front all the time. If you miss
the forelock seize the tail. 1t is the
hanging on more than the particular
hold that counts. The man will go
just as fast and nearly as far who has
hold of the tail as the one hanging on
TO the horn, besides he can hold on
better and is in less danger. Young
man, don't be too anxious to get
rapidly TO the front, but hang onto
what you have and you will get ahead

AS TO FLOWERS.

The action OF Salt Lake girl who
was arrested the other day for steal
ing flowers should teach "a lesson. She
was in the habit Of telephoning to the
florists asking them TO send dozen or
so OF roses to acertain business house or
drug store where she said she would
be during the day. She gave the
name of some prominent society lady,
and the order was always delivered.
Only when the bills were sent to the
society lady named did the florists dis
cover that they had been duDed.
Detectives soon discovered the girl
and when they visited her apartments
found flowers everywhere. Some were
fresh, others were pressed between
leaves of books. From all appearances
the girl simply had mania for the
flowers, and in speaking of the matter
said she could not resist the tempta-
ton TO get them in the way she did.
1t was wrong TO secure the flowers
in this way of course. but isn't it a
sad commentary on this life of ours
that all Of us can not have at least all
the flowers we want? Their fragrance
and beauty have saved many a soul
from hell, and many susceptible to
their influence are now on their down.
ward path only beause there are too
few flowers in their lives A great
man, whom we believe knew, once
said that man who would every
day hear good piece Of music, would
buy himself a flower and would read
from good book before going to bed,
could never be bad man. And yet
we let life slip past us without making
IL possible for some TO ever profit from
these things. We save the flowers
until the lifelesS clay can no longer
see their beauty nor inhale their fra
GRANGE: we give books to our friends, to
those who have: We give our atten-
ton to those who little need IL and
we pass by those who hunger for IL.
This life ought to be life full of
flowers, literal and Hgurative; pro-
fusion of one is sure to bring a greater
return of the latter. They should be
distributed lavishly, not only where
the heart is already warm with hui
man affection but in those places where
the life Is hard and cold. Let natures
beauties awaken the sleeping chord,
and soften the heart and mind so that
they may be moulded Let us be like
Andrew Carnegie who when his gard
ener reported that the common peo-
pie were stealing all his flowers, re-
Piled, then we must grow more |
flowers. john" That saying of An
drew Carncgies if it would but sink
into the lives Of those who could grow
flowers would mean more than all his |
gifts in public Libraries. We believe |
that every saint and sinner on this
globe is entitled to all the flowers his |
soul calls for, and we could not have
found it in us to be other thai. .cn'rnt |

Many good men in this community
have spent the best part of their lives
in the development of this country,
putting forth their best efforts 10
bring about what we see today, a pros.
porous commonwealth. 1t is TO be
regretted but it is true nevertheless,
that when many of these good faith
full pioneers who have worn out their
bodies by exposure and hardship for
the benefit of younger generations and
become confined to their homes and
beds, week after week, they remain in
solitude, not visitor calling on them
TO impart word OF cheer and comfort.
Religious prating is farce where such
duties and Others that cost so little
are neglected. Each one Of us will
have our turn sooner or later in our
declining years. Break away from
business burdens and tolls for a few
minutes and let us in this respect at
least practice what we preach"
