IN THE LIME LIGHT.

In the course Of the council pro-
eeedings last evening a condition of
city affairs was aired which proves
conolusiveiy all that has been said
regarding the methods employed in
a one man city government. The
mayor was charged with having
granted a liquor license to the 0.
X, saloon. which IL located in one
or his buildings on Sherman street,
without consulting the license com
mitee or securing the approval Of
the council, Councilman McEuen was
the man who exploded the bomb and

which the city il run with fits many
questionable transactions. The may

The question OF Occur d'Alene
street sidewalks also came before the
attention OF the council ON account
OF complaints from property owners

regard OF the street commissioner
for the surveys and grades Of the
streets. The crossing at Fifth
street IL pointed ont as a
sample Of the work OF the s1O0-a-
month street commissioner who holds
his Job for his supposed ability TO
herd votes. This Is not the only
complaint but the people make the
charge that the street commissioner
draws his princely salary from the
city and at the same time contracts
with property owners for the laying
of their sidewalks. The city Is held
responsible for this graft and II IA
the subject Of much complaint, es-
pecIaily Il II unfair TO those who
DO such work. These things com.

UNION GUIDE GEMS.

The farmers organizations are what the farmers make them; whatever their failures or successes, the mem. bers are responsible for it.
 Are you a true soldier or are you a deserter? Have you stood up to the mark for 15-cent cotton, or did you sell for less when you did not have it to do?
 Use great. caution in your dealings with politicians. There is no need to promise them anything. If they prom ise you anything, write it down in your little book and tell them to sign it.
 It is all right for men to talk about being for the people. but the idea of thinking we must vote for a man for judge just because he is against the railroads is the wrong spirit
 If Q man comes up and slaps you in the face, and you fail to resent the insult, and then he knocks you down and stamps you under his foot, it's justice, because you did not re- sent the first onslaught. You deserved it. If you want justice, you get it.; and whatever you get is justice.
 Justice is thing that most all peo- pie get. Generally when we get the worst of deal, or when a law has been imposed upon us, it is because we have slept over our rights and left these matters to other people when we should have been studying them. If we allow it to be done, it's justice no matter how it hurts.

A 4NIeeER" CROP.

"The way we raise cotton, 1t is 8 negros crop. Grains are the white
 mans crop. The trouble is that the farmer is 'nigger' to the merchant, and the merchant is 'nigger' to the fnancier. The merchant who does the general advancing business is not a
 benefiactoT. The farmer who expects to prosper must shorten his account with his own farm. It has been my observation that the diversifier sets a good table. He is the man who stands for levying taxes for schools, good roads and other things that tend to make a desirable community. If you are looking for a rundown farm, don't go to the diversifier. Don't go to him for man that is sagin' the govern ment and society in general, a knock CT and kicker, don't go to the diversi- fled farmer. It is in him that the hope of the future lies, the hope of the res urrection of new earth rising out of the old. Through him the mortgage ridden, soil-depleted, cheerless home will pass away and we shall have fields well kept, good barns, happy homes, healthy children, good schools, good roads and every tie to the rest Of the world. It will give broad men. in sympathy with their fellows, and happy women, cheerful with their kind. We shall have that which is pur- est, best and most ennobling in life" Extract from speech by Prof. w. R. Dodson at Dallas, Texas, before the Cotton Convention.

MARK TWAIN ON MONEY.
Humorist Points Out What He Consid-
 CTS Some Wrong Conceptions.

Mark Twain said that the financial panic has caused a wrong idea of the use and value of money.
 "The spendthrift says that money, being round, was made to roll. The miser says that, being fiat, it was made to stack up. Both are wrong.
 Strangely wrong, too, in their ideas about money are the veteran Aus tralian gold diggers. These simple old fellows, though worth perhaps a half million or more, live in the sim pie dug-outs and shanties of their lean early days.
 Once, lecturing landed at an Aus tralian port. There was no porter 1T, sight to carry my luggage. Seeing q rough-looking old fellow leaning against a post with his hands in his pockets, I beckoned to him and said:
 "'See here, if you carry these bags up to the hotel I'll give you half a crown
 "The man scowled at me. He took three or four gold sovereigns from his pocket, threw them into the sea, scowled at me again, and walked away without a word"

UNCLE JosH's PHILOSOPHY.
Topeka Farmers Union:

Topeka Farmers Union:
 I hev noticed that the farmer al ways sells his stuff at the other fel ler's price, and he gets so in the habit of doin' business that way that when he buys he let's the other man make the price too. What is wrong with the farmer, anyway?
 How in the world would the bulls and bears get along if the farmer did not furnish the chips for them to gam bic with?
 If the farmers could hide their wheat, corn, live stock and land from the assessors, like the Vanderbilts do their money, what in the world would the Government do for oil to grease it's wheels.
 It sometimes pays to drive three is only one mile away.
 When bankers get into trouble they issue clearing house certificates and force the people to take them ir place of money. When the farmers run out of cash they go to the poor house.
 Six horses pulling together can move a mighty big load, but a hun. dred horses pulling in different direc. tions can't budge feather
 When the railroads fixed up the long and short haul scheme for the benefit of the rich shippers in the big cities they surely didn't know that the farmers would ever want to get their stuff to market.
 The oil trust has made a good deal of fuss about that S29 9,000,000 fine, but if the time ever comes to pay it the Standard will just give the crank a twist and squeeze that and millions more out of the people that have to burn oil, and it won't worry the oil trust bit.
 The farmers are good fellers so long as they take the dose the city chaps mix for them without making a face, but when they fuss about it and say that it tastes bad they are called crauks and anarchists.

FIT THE GROCER
Wife Made the Suggestion.

A grocer has excellent opportunity to know the effects of special foods on his customers. A Cleveland grocer has a long list of customers that have been helped in health by leaving off coffee and using Postum Food Coffee.
 He says, regarding his own expe- rience: Two years ago l had been drinking coffee, and must say that I was almost wrecked in my nerves.
 Particularly in the morning I was so irritable and upset that I could hardly wait until the coffee was served, and then had no appetite for breakfast, and did not feel like at- tending to my store duties.
 "One day my wife suggested that inasmuch as I was selling SO much Postum there must be some merit in it and suggested that we try it. l took home a package and she pre- pared it according to directions. The result was a very happy ons. My nervousness gradually disappeare-, and today am all right. l would advise everyone afflicted in any way with nervousness or stomach troubles, to leave of coffee and use Postum Food Coffee" There's a Reason" Read "The Road to Melville" in pkgs.

COOPERATION DOES THE WORK
Co-Operator:

CC-Opef2tOr.
 Did you ever see a well drilled, well disciplined military company go through the drill? The movements were all in perfect rythm and cadence and the men moved like machines, ev- cry one doing the same thing exactly at the same time. On another part of the field a company of raw recruits were being taught the elementary principles of the drill. They were as awkara as hogs on ice. Every man was acting for himself, no harmony, no concert of movement This is exactly the way it is in any organization. There must be unity of action, harmo- ny of sentiment, oneness of purpose, otherwise confusion and failure re- suit The Farmers Union, when it be- comes like the well drilled company, each member understanding the prin- ciples of the Order; each member keeping in mind the obligations he has solemnly taken, and each one living strictly and entirely up to these prin- ciples and obligations, we will win ev- erything we undertake to do.

SEVERE HEMORRHolDS
Sores, and itching Eczema-Doctor Thought an Operation Necessary
 -Cuticura's Efficacy Proven.

"I am now 80 years old, and three years ago I was taken with an at- tack of piles (hemorrhoids), bleeding and protruding. The doctor said the only help for me was to go to a hospital and be operated on. I tried several remedies for months but did not get much help. During this time sores appeared which changed to terrible itching eczema Then I began to use Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pills, injecting a quantity of Cuticura Ointment with Cuticura Suppository Syringe. It took a month of this treatment to get me in fairly healthy state and then I treated myself once a day for three months and, after that, once or twice week. The treatments I tried took lot of money, and it is fortunate that I used Cuticura J. H. Henderson, Hopkinton, N. Y., Apr. 26, 1907"
