sse not now paid-in-advance subscriber
20 get busy. The price is a dollar
gl7er- 1t is the usual thing for the
qsnty nominees to call on the country
editor about the first week after the
county convention and apologize be-
cause they had neglected" to sub
scribe. They always intended to, but
overlooked it, for which they are truly
ssouy, and with that up comes the
stollar. Sometimes they forget to dig
UP the dollar and after the votes are
counted dodge every time they see
the editor coming. We are of the
opinion that the citizen who hasn't in
rerest enough in his county apers to
BE a regular subscriber isn't worth sup
SsSrting, and bless US if we believe we
will come through with the goods.
There isn't country editor on earth
riaat can't appreciate this proposition
and there ought to. be united action
among the pen pushers on this one
subject, at least.

One thing certain there is going to
be 3 MORMON question in Idaho
during next election. No amount Of
soft soap from the fellow who needs
Mormon votes to land him in Office
will keep the people from demanding
a proper settlement OF the question
this time. The Mormons, not the
News or any other paper. is response
bic for the fact that the issue will come
up. The Mormons have shown them
selves guilty Of entirely too much du5
plicityand political crookedness to ad-
NIT Of any further monkeying in the
matter.

The Standard Oil trust, and all other
trusts, had just as well understand
right now that they have got to get in
line and run their business along lines
more in harmony with the demands of
the public sentiment They may pos
pone the final settlement, they may
even attempt to make the public pay
the fine by raising the price Of oil, but
if they do they will find they have only
added to their troubles for they will
but have added to the already white
heat Of popular disfavor. The people
will have square deal no matter what
the cost or how long it takes to get it.
Just remember this.

The life OF the average rancher is
indeed hard one. For four years he
struggles to secure enough to live on
and pay the interest on his mortgage.
Then the bumper crop appears and
prices soar toward the dollar mark and
visions Of automobiles, pianos and a
disappearing mortgage makes life take
"A roseate hue, and the rancher is in
diced happy. Then the railroad trust,
and the grain bag trust, the harvesting
machinery trust, the Irvine trust and
the grain trust all hear Of his prospect
ave prosperity and arrange their re-
Y1scive households with a singleness of
gwpose, and resolve that the poor,
0wegworked rancher shall not die Of
Huy at receiving too large a compensa-
n On for his labors. Up goes the price
of everything necessary to harvest the
crop and last of all his fellow laborers
decides that 81 per day is proper
pnce for the sweat Of his brow. Then
after holding his grain and paying
warehouse charges he settles up in the
spring time, pays the interest on his
fIozn, re-establishes his credit at the
ss0Ees and with the grain company and

Este, still full OF hope that the whirl-a-

there would never be town of any
consequences at the proposed site of

absolutely nothing at this point to make

Cottonwood, little town about the
size Of Troy, south of the Clearwater is
showing that she has the right kind of
business men. Like Troy, the town
has no water system, and the matter
has been discussed, just as it has here,
with the result that the citizens there
have organized a company and have
already raised about $4,000. They
do not propose to wait till the town is
wiped oat by fire before they take steps
to protect themselves. Why not wake
up and do something here in Troy1
Let US get busy right now.

1t is now pretty well settled that the
republican party Of this county will
not renominate any of its present off
cials, and this fact opens the field for
new and promising material. Already
there is considerable speculation as to
available candidates, and by the time
the nominating primaries arrive there
will probably be more than one good
candidate for each county job. There
usually is.

The;raitoads of Idaho are assessed
at about twelve per cent of their real

1t is no longer laughing matter, this
proposition Of moving the county seat
to Troy. Perhaps not to Troy, but to

why not to Troy2 This town is about

nearer the majority Of the people than
any other point in the county.

And at last the train stopped at
Twenty-eighth street, and l hurried
out and down the steps and away to
the morgue.
When I entered the morgue, Shelton,
the keeper, was standing before a slab
that glistened family under the
wretched gas jets. He heard my foot
steps, and turned around to see who
was coming. Then he nodded, saying:

The old man turned the gas Jet. and
the flame blazed and whistled i'm the

I felt for my sketch book, found it;
turned the pages of all the animals
that 1 had sketched, the hippopotan1f,
the buffalo, the tigers-ahl where was
that sketch in which 1 had made the
woman in shabby black the principal
figure, with the brooding vultures all
around and the crowd in the sunshine?
Thunted everywhere, in every pocket.
1t was gone.
At last 1 rose and moved along the
narrow asphalt path in the falling twi-
light.
And as 1 turned into the broader
walk, was aware of a group, a police
man holding lantern, some gardeners,
and knot Of lOungers gathered about
something-a dark mass on the ground.
Found 'em just So" one of the gard
eners was saying, better not touch 'em
until the coroner comes.
The policeman shifted his bull's-eye
little; the rays fell on two faces, on
two bodies. half supported against a
park bench. On the finger of the girl
glittered a splendid diamond, set be-
tween the fangs of two gold serpents.
The man had shot himself; he clasped
two wet letters in his hand. The girls
clothing and hair were wringing wet
and her face was the face of a drowned
person.
