Situated between mountain and
plain, within the reach Of water,
power and transportation, who
shall say Grangeville is not yet
destined to become one of the lead
ing cities Of this great northwest?
What is it makes q great city il not
it's people? Will the mere fact
that resources arc at hand, that
the situation is ideal, that river,
lake or sea border it and invite q
people to take up their abode near
by, constitute q cityP No fell
low citizens,it takes the combined
energy Of the masses, who have
made known to the world at large
their intentions to build up q COM
munity in which to dwell, in which
they, as self governed people,
will expect to find the commercial
and industrial support Of the sur
rounding country, and in return,
give that value received in moral
and civil support to a country,
that in time Of peace, the delight
of living may be manifest, and in
time of war, that none shall be
left unprotected. In union, there
Is strength!
Then l would entreat you as
citizens, to come boldly out from
under cover, lay down the burden
Of single handed battle, join the
rank and file of your fellow-men,
and fight shoulder to shoulder for
the true interests of the city and
with the feeling in your hearts,
that there is no such word AS fail.
In conclusion let me state that
the Grangeville Get-Together Club
will not harbor discomfort, nor
protect the pessimist. But will
welcome to her list of membership,
any and all honorable citizens.
That it will not allow church, poll
tics, fraternal or other bodies, nor
personal factions, to dominate the
policy of the club. but will bow in
humble obediance to the will Of the
combined people, as community.
Give it your best support, end
all of your energy, and it in turn
will pay you ten thousand fold.
Yours for better conditions,
President, Grangeville's Get-T To-
gether Club.
The first meeting OF the Get
Together Club is to be held at the
Armory, December. 11th. next
Tuesday evening. An elaborate
program has been arranged. Differ.
ent citizens of the town will give
short talks and everyone is invit.
ed to lend their interest and efforts
to make a success of the meet.
ing. Riggs Concert Band will fur
nish few selections, S. M. Curtisf
and company will give short per.
formance. Supper will also be pro-
vided and every effort put forth te
make it q success.

REV. GEORGE ". RUl and
RESTORED TO HEALTH BY
VINOL AND STRONGLY
ENDORSES 1T.

Prominent men from ali parts of
the country are indorsing Vinol, and
strong testimonial letters from four
ministers OF the gospel and several
physicians have been received within
q week. Such unsolicited testimony
as this is the best proof of merit any
medicine can have.
The Rev. George W. rutland of
Keene, N H., writss: Il have used
yonr cod liver oil preparation, vinol,
as tonic, and I do not believe there
is any other medicine that can equal
IT. It built me up and strengthened
me when run down and overworked.
Vinol has done for me more than
was claimed for it,
Eve honestly believe there is no
other remedy or cod liver oil prepara-
tion known to medicine that has the
healing, strengthening power which
Vinol has, and if it fails to create
strength and health for run -down, de-
bilitated people, old people, weak,
sickly women and children, nursing
mothers and after severe sickness,
or it it fails to cure hacking cough,
chronic cold, throat or bronchial
trouble. or to make those who are too
thin fat, rosy and healthy, we will
return every cent paid us for it..
Is there sick, ailing or aged per
son in Little Falls who can afford te
ignore this generous offer?' G. W.
Willing, Druggist.

State Auditor ExpIainS
that Gifts Made Before
Death Are Taxable

State Auditor 8. G. Iverson hes
sent out notices to judges IF probate,
county treasurers and registers of
deeds q circular calling attention 20

full, and also gives instructions and
explanations for the collections of tax.
He calls special attention to the word
''gifts'' used In the law, and holds
that not only Inheritance upon the
death of person but other Rifto

anticipation of death, come under
the provisions of the law. he says
in the circular: THE law does not
apply to estates in gross; 1t applies
onlv to the distri butive shares into
which the estate is divided. The first

fore when an estate does not exceed
$40, 600 in value this law does not ap-
ply at all. If an estate amounts TO
$50, 600 inherited by or bequeathed to
one person, $40, 900 of that sum is tax
able at l-2 ger cent. If the estate
mounts to $40, 900 divided equally
among five heirs, or %, 600 each there
would be no tax whatever. If On
estate is valued at $50, 900 with lega-
cies of ii. 900 each to ten persons and
the remainder $65. 900 to one person,
there would be tax of per cent on
$50, 600 of the 500. 900 so received.
The tax shall be computed only upon
the amount in excess of $40, 600 for
each inheritance The law was ap-
proved by the governor April 49, 1906.
and all estate Of persons whose death
occurred since that date, coming with
in the jurisdiction of the probate
court, are liable for the tax as there
in provided The tax becomes lien
upon the estate upon the death of the
decedent or donor, and shall be due
and payable one year from such
death, except as otherwise provided.
