The regular meeting Of the city
council was held on scheduled time,
despite the fact that it was on the

able time was spent in disposing of the
routine business. The usual list of
claims was allowed, including the sal
aries Of the various city officials, and
the report of the clerks appropriation
fund was accepted Iry. McCracken

priation and the citizens of the county
are taking hold of the matter with a
determination to make the fair a sue
cess.
Since last writing we have had many
visitors from different parts of the
county Among the number We're
Nephi and Charles Virgin OF st Charles
who were transferring their property to
different parties preparatory to movin &
to Salem in Fremont county. The Vir-
gins have bought large tract of land
near that prosperous and thriving place
and will move within week or ten
days.
The German people of Paris, with d
few invited guests celebrated last Fri

cause they were not readers Of the
Examiner
There are countless ways in which
the local paper helps the community
in general and the individual sub
scrlber in particular, and the more
liberal support that the paper re-
ceives the better able it is to help
build up the community in which it
is published.
While we are pleased with the
manner in which the Examiner 4
subscription list is growing Of late
yet there are many whose names are
not on our list. If, perchance, thu
article meets the gaze of any one
who is not a subscriber, just ask
yourself if you hadn't better qnlt
borrowing your neighbours paper
occasionally, and have your name
enrolled as a regular member of the
Examiners big family.

Those who are just now making a
cheap of talk" about the increased
appropriations allowed by the legis
lature, seem to forget that Idaho is
no longer a child IN short dresses,
but is Il full grown lady, and that
her needs have increased according
lY. It may be that in few in
stances the appropriations are a
little too large for the requirements
as we consider them today, but If
Idaho continues to advance as rapid
y during the ensuing two years as
she has during the past two, the APP
preparations will doubtless prove
to be none too large. As it re-
quires more TO feed and clothe a
family of ten children than it does a
family of two, so does il require
more money TO conduct the affairs
of Idaho today than ii did eight or
ten years ago.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES
Montpelier, Idaho, March Is, 100
THE HOWE PAPER.

''Put me on your subscription
list" said citizen of Montpelier
last Saturday. 81 have intended
subscribing for some time but kept
putting it off, and now see where
| made a mistake. Last week had
horse sold at an estray sale. The
animal was advertised in the Exam
liner, but of course didn't know it
because ! didn't take the paper"
Here is an instance where a man
was out enough to have paid for
several years subscription to the
Examiner, but the real benefit Of
having the paper was not realized
by him until after his horse had been
sold.
The little country newspaper may
not amount to much in the estima-
ton Of a good many people, and it
is probably thrown aside week after
week with the expression, ut does,
Mt have any news in it and isn't
worth carry home from the post
office. ] can get a semi,weekly
paper, twice as big, for 81 year
and the Examiner is $3.50 and only
published once week. = That is
true, but does the paper published
in Salt Lake, or some other city,
give you any local news? Not much.
1t doesn't publish the local estray
notices; it doesn't tell you what your
county commissioners are doing;
1t doesn't record the births, deaths
and marriages of your community;
it doesn't tell you of any Of the
local happenings, and for ffty-one
weeks IN the year you may think
your local paper isn't worth six. bits
to you, but in the 6fty.second week
the paper may contain some item
that is worth more to you than ter
times the yearly subscription pric,
of the paper.
Another illustration of the valu,
# the local paper was brought Il
our notice the other day. In talk
ing with JAS. Holmes, who wa
called here from Union, Oregon, b.
the death of his brother, he said
81 could not think Of dong wlthouj

Writing Of his impressions at tn

Writing of his impressions at the
recent dry farming congress in Den
yer, Prof. IL. I. French of the Ida
no State University, says that one
thing that impressed him most was
the amount Of testimony gwen Of
the successes attained in farming IN
the semi-arld regions without the
aid Of irrigation. In Kansas, Wyo
ming, Colorado, Utah, New Mexico
and Idaho thousands of acres, OF
hitherto range lands have been con.
yerted into productive, cultivated
areas hearing from 90 to 40 bushels
of wheat per acre, and even greater
yields of oats and barley.

is ELkTON so BAD?

T HE Wilmington Every Evening
OF Monday last contained
half page, article, purporting
to present the views OF many Elkton
citizens on the failure OF prohibition
to prohibit The article was evident
ly paid advertisement and we are
not able to say whether the inter
views" were bona fidc and correct, or
not. Ii they were. it looks as ii it
were high time the officers of the law
were getting awake. Ii violations OF
the law are so frequent, notorious, and
obvious as these "interviews' assert,
it seems very remarkable that every
body can know OF them, except the
officers OF the law. Whatever one may
think OF the wisdom or un-wisdom OF
the prohibtory law, no w-abding
citizen can question the propriety OF
enforcing the law as it stands upon
the Statute books. ii things are as
bad in Elkton, as these interviews re-
present, is it not fair question,
what our public officials are ior? The
prohibitory law is here. and here by
the peoples will, Tor four years to
come. These purportcd interviews
reflect great discrcdit on that law.
But how about the discredt these in

WILL LOOK INTO PAVING.

Mayor lneledue Will Communicate
With Mayor Of Richmond, Ind.
Mayor 1ngledue was instructed by
resolution of the city council Monday
night TO cor,nrrief.r with the mayor
Of Richmond. Ind, for the purpose
ascertaimng IN u,4,a., .iie character OF
the concrete paving in that city. a re-
port of which was furnished week
ago by Mr.. j. w. Burroughs. The
mayor will report to the council the
information that he receives from
Richmond, according to the resolution
that Mr.. Clark presented.
Mr.. Herman suggested an amend
ment to the effect that a committee OF
three Including the mayor, be APP
pointed and investigate the paving IN
person. This did not meet with favor
for two reasons, one of which was the
legality of 5unketing trips at public ex-
pense. The mayor is in favor OF
personal investigation of three mem
hers OF the council>and himself provid-
ing such a trip can be taken without
raising any question as to It's legall.y'
but not until after some more oehnlte
Information can be received by ietteI .
Mr.. Herman withdrew his amendment
and the Clark resolution was aoopteo'
