4 DIFFICULT TENN.
The Word Bourgeois" and . French
Woman's Definition.

am always embarrassed when ask
ed by foreigners to give the definition
Of the word bourgeois" which is gen
orally emphasized disdainfully. The
dictionary defines it as common, with
out distinction" 1t is not exactly that
Rourgeoisism. like prOvincialisn. is a
mentality. it represents kernel with
out the pulp and emanates from the
shell Of the dinner pot. 1t is one Of the
props Of society. Props are never beau
tiful nor graceful. Without 1t, however,
the world could not retain it's eQuilib-
rum, yet with it alone the. world
could not progress. 1t gives to indi
viduals the impenetrability Of a shell.
One often finds its characteristics in
persons who have received a good edu-
cation. in those who possess superior
culture. who have taste and q sense Of
beauty. 1t betrays itself by mean and
narrow IDEAS. by implacable intoler-
ance, by stubborn blindness and. above
all. by an incapacity to understand
liberty or to accord it generously.
This mentality creates a certain at
mOsphere which is felt at once. The
workman. the peasant, the artist are
not bourgeois. could name a king
who is much more so than many Of the
residents Of our worst districts. NapO.
leon l. was bourgeois: Napoleon Ill.
was not. BalZac. Maupassant. were not
bourgeois: lola was England. Italy.
Spain, are not bourgeois. Germany is.
but her emperor is not. and so one
might continue indefinitely. - From

4 Impressive Reception by Board

The opening of the new buildss
ing to the public was made the
occasion for a reception, given
by the library board, assisted
by committees from the clubs,
and it was an event long to be
remembered. To add to the
enjoyment Mesdames Adair,
Beach and Carr furnished some
delightful music which was
much appreciated. A consider
able number of the patrons of
the library took advantage of
the opportunity to inspect the
new quarters, and all who at
tended agree that at last Mount

of which she may feel proud.

PLANNING BRIDGE
FOR CLENNS FERRY
Resident of River Town Looking
Into Plans For $4,000 Structure
Across the Snake.

G. A. Dunlap, of Ontario, Ore,
representing the Intermountain
Bridge and Construction Co.,
came here last Thursday, ac-
companied by Paul Jones, a
bridge engineer, and measured
and sounded the river at the
two proposed bridge sites.
Messrs. Dunlap and Jones
were accompanied to the river
by |. E. Ferkas AMI Geo. Flee,
who pointed out the proposed
sites and did the heavy work
with the oars and sounding lead.
The measurements were taken
first a short distance aboveRose-
years ferry, where the width
from waters edge to waters
edge was found to be ASP feet
3 inches, and the greatest depth
at the present stage Of water 22
feet. At this site Mr.. Dunlap
estimated that a bridge could
be built for $22,500.
The width at McNulty's ferry
was $50 feet 7 inches and the
depth 20 feet. The bridge here
would cost about $4,000, a diff
ference of $4,000 under the
other site.
Mr.. Dunlap's company has
built over a dozen bridges in
Malhuer county and are well
and favorably known in that
part OF the country forthe work
they do.
There have been turned over
to the Commercial club profile
drawings of the river bed at
the points where the surveys
were made and blue prints show
ing structural details of bridge
building that will be of great
benefit to the committees in
promoting this most important
improvement. Glenns Ferry

FIREMEN'S GRAND BALL
POPULAR SOCIAL EVENT
Mountain Home Turns Out in Force to Aid the

Crowded to its Utmost Capacity

To say that the Firemen's
Thanksgiving dance was COM
plete success, is putting the
facts in the mildest manner
possible. No similar event in
Mountain Home in the past ten
years drew together such a
crowd of merry makers, and all
who attended are loud in their
praises of the hosts, the hall and
the music. Over one hundred
couples were on the floor dane
ing, and many more spectators

BOYD SAYS NOBLE

Elmore Assessor COnecls Statement
by Veterinarian Regarding
Sheep in County.

Assessor Frank Boyd, when
shown the statement in the last
issue of this paper, made on the
authority Of DR.. G. E. Noble,
State Veterinarian, that hehad
reported for taxation but l12,-
1863 sheep, when the number
should have been not less than
231, 932 said:
'In the first place DR.. Noble
is mistaken in regard to the
number of sheep belonging
in Elmore county. His inspect
or, j. M. Holiday, inspected all
the sheep that passed through
the county, regardless Of where
they were assessable. In this
way he included in his count
many migratory sheep that did
not remain in the county long
enough to become assessable.
He also included in his in
spection count lambs Of this
year, which are not under the
law, assessable at all. In these
and other ways he added to the
count so as to make the appar-
ent discrepancy between his
figures and mine. | am satisfi-
ed that | have reported all the
sheep that are assessable in Ell

him untold financial loss.
"Now am in entire harmony
with the government in its eff
fort to select and pnnish the
wrong doer, but | believe that
when a special agent, irrespon-
sible financially and generally
morally, goes around and indis-
criminately ties up bona fide
settlers, that he should be made
RESPONSIBLE in one way at least.
| know that there are excep-
tions; there are some special
agents who are just as anxious
to do justice to the settlers as
they are to protect the rights
of the government. In my life
time ! have met two or three.
but ordinarily they think it is
incumbent upon them to throw
suspicion upon every man who
connects himself with an effort
to get home.
There ought to be some way
and there is some way by which
the manhood and the woman
hood which has been building
up this great western country
can be protected against the
annoyance and embarrassment
constantly put upon them by
these men.
"1f they haven't any more
judgment than that which they
are exercising they ought to be
retired from the service. If
they haven't any more sense of
right than that which they are
manifesting, they ought to be
sent somewhere else.
1t is proper for me to say
that | believe there is an honest
effort in the proper places to
correct this evil and it is the
duty Of every goodA citizen to
give those who are high up in
the departments to understand
that they will stand by them
in correcting it. ]"

SPECIAL AGENTS
Idaho Junior Senator Characterizes
Agents of Land Office as
Mischief Makers

81 am in entire harmony with
the government in its effort to
select and punish the wrong
doer, but | believe that when a
special agent, irresponsible fl
nancially andgenerally morally,
goes around and indiscriminate-
ly ties up bona fide settlers, he
should be made responsible in
one way, at least
In these words Senator Will
lam E. Borah, speaking Monday
at the Commercial club lunch
con in Boise, expressed his dis
appreciation of the present sys-
TEN Of governmental spying
and inspection.
Ihe luncheon was largely at
tende and the club members
largely applauded the senator's
remarks. The speaker at some
length went into the subject Of
amendments to the reclamation
act in order to bring about
more encouraging conditions
for settlers in this and other
states wherein the government
is operating on irrigation pro
jects. Continuing he said:
There is another matter
which ought to be remedied. 1t
is a system which has been grow
ing up for a long time. That
is the system Of spying out,
hunting down, embarrassing and
annoying honest and bona fde
settlers because the special in
spector is either too ignorant or
too careless to discriminate be-
tween him who does wrong
and who does we'll. AS the
matter now stands, after a man
has been upon the public do
main for five years, struggling
along to make a home and at
last presents his evidence of
final proof, a special agent, abb
solutely irresponsible, may
simply Of his own whim, file a
protest and the bona fde set
tier is tied up for any length of
time from six months to a year.
"This sometimes means the
difference between success and
bankruptcy. The settler may
have exhausted all his means to
make a home and have gone in
debt and has anxiousIy awaited
the time when he would have
his property as his own but at
the last minute he is tied up,
