The citizens of Tygee, on the Idaho
side of the valley, are getting ready to
put in a telephone system of their own,
connecting with the r. M. B. T. Co., at
Alton and enjoying the benefit of the
exchange service. Messrs. j. q. Miller
and Samuel Draney are the principal
moders and it speaks well for the enter
prise Of these gentlemen. Most of the
poles are out and the line will be built

Fairview lane from the central Office
and thence on bee line over into Tygee
Valley. This service will be of untold
benefit TO the settlers there, and will be

OUR CONTEMPORARIES.
The Farmer and Pure AIiIk.


 CNew York sun.)
 If the farmer builds his barn floor of concrete, gives his COW two square feet of light and trims her tail, keeps the barn panes secured, whitewashes the walls frequently, provides nice clean suits for the milkers, strains the milk and keeps 1t in cool place on elevat- ed ground one hundred feet from the hog pen-lf he puts in and makes all these improvements, as the New York Department of Health proposes to him there is nothing for 1t but the price of milk must go up.
 It may be granted that milk can not be too pure and the persons who handle it too clean. It may be allowed that the COW will enjoy better health and live longer if she has more light and a cheerful whitewashed home. At the same time it must be remembered that the farmers milk business was estab lished under conditions that suited hin and not his customers or the health boards For @ long time he was neith- CT educated nor regulated. Now even the President is getting after" him note the recent circular letter of Sur geon- General Wyman to State and municipal health officers throughout the country.
 The unregenerated farmer will hay, to clean up and keep clean if he ha. to mortgage his dairy. He is already bewailing an advance of twenty-fiv her cent. in the cost of feed. We all want clean milk, pure milk, sanitar, milk, but we must be willing to pal for 1t. Under the circumstances any body who engages in organizing and maintaining a milk trust will be an enemy of the people, and he will hea from them

A scientist says that modesty is a disease It doesn't seem to be epi- demic.
CAN'T AFFORD TO co BdcK.

King Oscar of Sweden has lost so many of his good subjects by their emigration to the United States that he Is afraid his beloved country will suffer. So he has made what was ip- tended to be a moving appeal to the Swedes in this country to return to their fatherland. But it hasn't moved them to go back. It has moved a Kansas Swede, A. s, Segerharnmar, to write to King Oscar and tell him why the Swedes of Kansas can't afford to go back. He tells the King that the United States is the greatest country on earth; that the Swedes are happy and prosperous and would have ev- erything to lose and nothing to gain by returning; that they came to Amer lea and to Kansas in good faith to spend their lives in thrift and plenty; that while they revere the memory of their native land and honor their for mer king, their first duty is no longer to the land of their birth, but to the great republic in which they have found happiness and prosperity, and to which they have proved their devotion in times of trial.
 Same case with the swedes in Con- necticut They like the country and the State. They really can't afford to go back even to oblige the good King Oscar. And as they are valuable addition to the population of the country nobody here wants to have them go back.

ly lost confidence in himself? Has re- iteration become the test of his deter imitation?
 These are logical and consistent in quiries to make at this moment of President Roosevelt, who proposes to fire hotter shots than ever. If he has not already convinced the entire coun- try that his is the unalterable deter imitation to stamp out illegal conduct on the part of all subjects of the gov ernment it is beyond his great power to do so If, on the other hand, he has convinced the country of his unalter- able purpose, and we contend he has, then repetition may not unjustly sub ject him to. the suspicion of harboring an ulterior purpose of political na- ture. Should that idea once possess the American people he will deal him. self a blow which will materially af- feet his place in history. Let up on the w-breakers? Never But on the oth-
 CT hand is it necessary for a man clothed with authority to exercise that authority to the music of a brass
 band? In other words, in the forth
 coming speeches President Roosevelt
 has thes chance of his career to prove
 that while relentless in his pursuit of
 wrongdoing his boise is undisturbed
 by the clamor of the crowd.

4 PROMISING OPIUM CURE.

The rulers of China are making hero- ic efforts to rid their beloved land of the opium curse. According to the reg ulaticns issued awhile ago, all teach CTS, scholars, soldiers and sailors of all ranks were to be allowed three months wherein entirely to relinquish the opium habit Information has reached the authorities In Pekin that some soldiers are paying no attention to these regulations, so instructions have been issued to the effect that any officer or man found smoking will be at once beheaded,
 This looks as If it might be an ef- fectual cure of those to whom 1t is ap- piled, and 1t seems also likely to act as discourager of hesitancy among the soldiers who are hesitating about abandoning the habit. It is not prob able that this opium cure will become popular in other lands, but If 1t could be 1t might make some improvement,

STRENUOUS AND SENSITIVE.

It appears that though the Emperor William has been strenuous he has also been sensitive. In an address the oth- CT day he said that during the course of his reign many people had wittng- ly and unwittlngly caused him bitter pain, This remark has of course caused much comment Some of the newspa- pers hint that as the Emperor went thus far, he might as well have been a little more explicit Others boldly hint that the responsibility rests with the Emperor himself. The Frankfurter Zeltung inquiries: "Has the Einperor himself not often given occasion for active criticism?'' Tn his public utter ances he has placed the military upon a plane higher than that of the civil ian element, he has bidden the discon- tented spirits shake the dust of Ger many from off their feet, he has de- preciated serious works of art, he has spoken lightly of the Reichstag, and has branded the Social Democracy as a band of traitors and enemies of their own country, which, according to him, they dlsown. Journalists he has de- scribed as "the failures of public schools" The same paper remarks that If the Emperor had not been born in the purple he might have become a journalist, and in time assuredly quite a good journalist
 Perhaps our strenuous ruler, who has often been spoken of in the same breath with Emperor William, has also been sensitive, though>he has not com plained. If he has been sensitive he has had enough to complain about.

Make haste to school, my little child, Or else you will be late; Your books are all aseptlc now, And here's your sterile slate. Your pencil has been boiled an hour 'Tis germless, now, l hope; And don't forget to wash your desk With this carbollc soap. And lest about the schoolroom floor Some unseen microbes Turk, Just sprinkle formaline around Before you set to work You'd better put, for safety's sake, Biohloride in the ink. And water that has not been boiled You must not dare to drink. Of course, when recess comes around, Some food you'll want to munch; So In this disinfected box
 Is predigested lunch, And since 'tis said that in kiss Bacteria may dwell I may not give you, as I'd like,
 A mothers fond farewell. Make haste to school, my little child, And leave my tender care; And may you still be safely kept
 From microbes in the air.

The 'fbest" people of Chicago are mourning over the defeat of the new charter which was to make their city a much better place to live in. But a
 lot of the common people of Chicago are very much pleased with the situa- ton. It is interesting to notice that the parade of the United Societies of Local Self-Government to show their opposi- tion to the new charter was an impress sive arfair. The secretary of the organ ization is Anton J.

THE HOPE OF xEw ORLEANS.

New Orleans Is hoping. It is hoping that the grand scheme for the improve ment of the Mississippi and the return of commerce to the river will succeed. It looks back to the days when it was one of the leading commercial cities of the Union, ranking third and being on- ly surpassed in population and busi- ness by New York and Baltimore. Now it ranks as twelfth. Only thirty years ago there were lines of great steam boats blowing the mighty river be- tween New Orleans and all the im- portant points up to St, Louis, while from that city fleets of barges bring ing grain from the interior were con- stantiy seen in the harbor of New Or leans transferring cargo to or taking 1t from sea-going ships. There were all so regular lines of steamers plying be- tween New Orleans and Cincinnati aud

THE NEW DANGER.

Some might have thought, and prob ably did think, that the Englishman who wrote to the Times the other day complaining because sand from a bal loon had fallen on him while he was peacefully enjoying himself in his own garden was a little too pesky particu- lar. But an Englishman usually knows what his rights and wrongs are, and is not backward about standing up for himself and speaking for himself. The Englishnan wasn't hurt by the sand He didn't pretend he was. But there was principle involved, and he wanted to know what right anybody had to drop things on him from the sky. That his complaint was more im- rortant than it may have seemed to some is indicated by the fact that a baker in Med, 8 village near Frank fort-on- Main, had a fine batch of plum cakes which were cooling on his roof ruined the other day. by show CT of sand ballast thrown over from above by passing aeronaut.
 SD far nobody haa been seriously damaged by the aeronauts, but what has happened indicates what may hap pen when the sky is as full of airships as the earth is of automobiles and such There will soon have to be some rules about dropping things from air ships.

AbOllshing cattle Ropins Contests.

 Texas several years ago abolished steer roplng contests. the cattlemen of the State being the ones who asked for the law and saw that 1t was pass ed. No cattleman who believes in humane treatment of animals will be found defending a steer roping contest. Bucking contests, in which horses are abused, are only aSshade less cruel aOd are fully as needless as the roping contests. Both these forms of enter tainment belong to a dead period of
