Country Boys

That boys reared in the country are
the hope of the world was never more
clearly illustrated than during the
past winter by fourteen year old boy
who lives five miles from the city,
and walks in for school, starting often
at half past six, to be on time. One
stormy morning having to help do the
chores before starting he forgot his
undercoat until coming to town, when
on taking off his overcoat he missed
it but determined to 60 to school in
his shirt sleeves rather han be mark
ed down for absence. A friend finally
borrowed a neighbours coat which was
several sizes too large, but better than
none. Of course the scnool boys
made sport of him, asking if he had
a "corner on coats" and other fool
questions, all of which We're trying,
but the boy kept his temper, only
replying that he didn't come to
school for beauty show His moral
courage in thus Drawing public opinions,
will be valuable lesson to him.
His character is being developed by
the trials endured in getting his
education. Beds of "fowery ease,
which are usually enjoyed by the city
boy can never give him the vim and
stamina acquired by country boys in
their experience of hard work and little
play. Country boys may appear
unprepossessing and questionable for
a time, but, the future holds for them
premiums which are only paid to ex-
perience gotten by hard knocks on the
farm, and overcome only by faithful
ness and industry. The lasting
impressions on the heart by country
life are so deep that they can never
be effaced and are creative forces on
the character of individuals. -Ameri-
can Boy.

The purchase of Alaska by our coun-
try was the best investment that our
country ever made. The territory
costs the United States 81, 200, 900. 90.
To this time it has returned the
government over 500, 900, 10000 in
gold, $11, 900, 900. 90 in revenue taxes,
$50, 900, 10000 in furs and $96, 900, 600

Ellensburg is rejoicing over the fact
that the Northern Pacific has promised
to build new passenger depot in
that city. She had better not rejoice
too soon. Ritzville was promised a
new depot about year ago, and this
spring the Railway Company made
repairs on the present old shack, which
is used as depot, which would indi-
cate that it will take some time be-
fore the promised new passenger depot
will be built here.

Idaho certainly has it's share of

50 much has been said and written
with reference to the Meyer, Haywood
and Pettibone case, both pro and con,
that not few minds have been confus-
ed, and a great many radicals have
been excited. There are several facts
which should be borne in mind. First,
there is no denial that former Governor
Steuneberg, was murdered, or that the
three men named are accused of compli-
city in the murder. The star witness
for the state claims that he was
prompted by them to do the bloody
work. Second, the murder was COM
mitted in Idaho, therefore, the courts
of that state, and not those of Colorado
have the right and duty of trying the
men accused. Third, the three men
were arrested on a requisition made
in due form by the governor of Idaho
and duly honored by the governor of
Colorado; thus far the legal require
ments have been complied with.
The Western Federation of miners,
whose leaders the accused men were,
claim: First, that they should not
have been arrested at all. Second,
that before being carried off to Idaho
they should have been given an oppor-
tunity to test the validity of the
extradition proceedings in the courts
of Colorado. 1t is asserted that the
men are being made victims of a con-
spiracy.
These men are charged with great
crime and the courts must listen tc
the testimony with reference to Their
guilt or innocence, and let the guilt
or innocence be established by fan
trial, and then it will be time to dis.
cuss the questions whether any
technicalities were violtead in theil
extradition. An attempt has beer
made, and is being made, to confuse
the public mind by magnifying the
alleged unfairness of the manner Of
their arrest and removed to Idaho, ant
by ignoring the essential fact thai
Retribution for murder is more i'm
portant than quiblings over whether
men charged with murder were pro
perly ceasedfor trial."

Minnesota has a new mortgage tax
law on it's statute books which provides
that mortgages on real estate are now
taxable at the rate of so cents per
500. This tax must be paid before
the mortgage can be recorded, and
covers all taxes assessable thereafter
on such mortgage. Unless such tax
is paid, mortgages cannot be assigned
and foreclosure proceedings will not
be valid.
