The home of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles
Mundy, on New Brunswick avenue,
was the scene of a merry gathering
yesterday afternoon in honor of their

to the dining room, which was beau
tifully decorated for the occasion.
At the refreshment table there was a
large calke decorated with candles
and having the little hostess's name
and age on it, and each child as he or
she passed around took a piece, and
there was great laughing when n
succeeded in getting a prize in a piece
of cake, after which the little folks
departed for their homes, wishing
Miss Alice many happy returns of the
day. Each guest left the hostess a
small gift as a remembrance of the
happy day.
Among those present we're: Geta
Jensen, Maize Syring, Marie Soren-
sen, Bertha Rasmussen, Katie
Church, Lille Church, Agnes Larsen.

The Science Of Horseshoeing.
From the Farmers Review.

Every farmer should endeavor to learn
something about the science of horseshoe
ing. Much Of the poor services rendered by
some Of our horses Is due to poor shoeing.
In some localities are men practicing the
business Of farriers that never have really
learned their trade. In that business. as In
all others. there are bunglers that would
not be able to correctly shoe horse If they
knew how. It L. the testimony of many
horsemen that good horses have been made
lame repeatedly by being wrongly shod.
The great mass Of farmers do not know
when their horses are correctly shod This
knowledge Is necessary, and Is beginning to
be more general than It was. Our agricul-
tural colleges are doing a good work In
sending out graduates that have taken a
course in the science OF horseshoeing.
The horse can be no better than his feet,
and the best horse in the world can be
ruined by having his feet ruined Think of
q horse having to work all day on hard
soil with feet famed by improperly fitting
shoes. This IL not only cruelty to the anil
NAL but It IL q loss to the owner. Many
horse 30 rendered useless h supposed to
have some kind Of trouble and Is dosed with
medicines or rubbed with Iniments to take
out the supposed soreness In some other
part OF his limbs. It Is f1rst necessary for
the farmer to be able to diagnose the trou-
BILE. Many horse has been doctored for
weeks before II has been discovered that
his shoes were the cause OF the trouble.

Court Methods in Two Countries

From the Kansas City Star.
In England between 1890 and 1900 new
trials were granted in less than 31z per cent
of all cases brought under review. In the
United States 1t was discovered in 1887 that
new trials were grained in 46 per cent of
all cases and that In 90 per cent of these
the appeal turned on questions of pleading
and practice. The explanation of the diff
ference between English and American con-
ditions, of course. lies in the divergence Of
the administration of the law. In England
the question by the appellate court Is: is
the Judgment just?" In America II is: us

A LAME PROPOSITION.

The Moscow Mirror says that since
Auditor Ramsted has served one four
year term he must abide by the I'm
written law and step down and out.
And then Editor Smrth reverses him
self and recommends giving Probate
Judge Lukins third term and init
mates that a third term would be
about right for Judge Steele. Now
The News heartily agrees with the
Mirror that both Judge Lukins and
Judge Steele are competent officials
and ought TO be retained by the
people. But why not apply the same
rule to Auditor Ramsted or any other
good, capable, public servant2 What
the taxpayers want is good public
service and the one term policy is not
certain to bring about this desirable
end. Many counties have kept men
in the same Office for years, and where
an exceptionally capable, honest and
efficient official can be found such a
policy is wise one. We have said
that Judge Steele should be reelected
just as long as he serves we'll the peo-
pie, and The News would apply this
rule to every county office. The
present law restricting the sheriff and
the assessor to one term is a farce and
ought to be repealed. If Auditor
Ramsted has proven to be a good
competent official, and he has, then
what will the people gain by electing
another who may or may not be as
competent The News believes the
people should insist on keeping its
servants in Office during good, faithful,
honest public service, giving those
who are worthy some reward for good
work. We believe the people should
say TO its elective officers: SO long
as you perform your duty well you
shall be retained" Latah county to-
day has a corps Of officials that are do
ing their work so well that the party
that placed them there take pride in
the record they have made. II good
public service is the thing, the people
want, the Mirrors "unwritten law"
ought to be given a decent burial.

that all the wealth of John D. Rocka-

Recently a discussion arose among
a group OF senators relative to the task
Of answering the hundreds Of letters
written by the people to their senators.
Here is what Senator Hepburn Of Idaho
said: 1t has been stated here that it
would be desirable could each senator
be rid Of what has been termed the
encumDrance Of correspondence incl
dent to his position. do not think
that is just in the right spirit in which
to regard this question. We are here
to represent the people and they are
entitled to be answered. For one l
like to see the people come close
enough to the government and be in
terested enough in the performance
Of their duties as citizens and our du
ties as their representatives to com
municate with US. They are entitled
to it and I do not begrudge it at all.
I am perfectly willing to answer every
letter that comes and to perform all Of
the little duties in the way Of accom-
modations that are incident to the
holding Of the position"

The News has said several times
that it was opposing the Potlatch Lum-
Der Co. simply because that company
had not shown disposition to treat
the people, the county or the state
fairly. And we want it distinctly I'M
derstood that this is the only motive
that has prompted criticisms from this
paper. 1t has been suggested that
the company is now and will hereafter
deal fair and square. II so The Troy
News is more than ready to shake
hands, and forget the past. What has
been done cannot be undone, and no
amount Of discussion can right wrongs,
if wrongs have been committed. Let
US hope the Potlatch company will
hereafter have due consideration for
both private and public rights and
make it possible for those who have
opposed it to be its friends. The
people are willing.

SENIORS ARE ONLY MEN.

That there is nothing of the ''divin-
ity that doth hedge king" in the at
mosphere surrounding United States
senator is the opinion Of Representa-
tive Moon Of Tennessee, who says: 81
would just as soon question a United
States senator as anybody else, if he
knows something want to know. {"
He might have added that a United
States senatorship does not entitle a
man to refuse to impart information
properly asked for in congress or in
court. Some senators, like some
millionaires and trust magnates, seem
TO imagine they have special privi-
leges in this respect not possessed by
the ordinary individual. It took a
Hughes TO demonstrate to the insur-
ance nabobs that they were not i'm
mune. Hadley Of Missouri is irving
to prove the same thing to Standard
OH Rogers. Some time it will dawn
upon the nation that the rich man and
the poor man, the senator and the
voter who sends him to the senate have
equal rights and equal obligations, and
that in this broad republic there is no
place for privileged class, save as
personal ability and merit entitle to
recognition. Review.
