Colville's Erroneous Estimate.

Secretary of State Nichols, in his esti-
mate OF the population of the various
cities OF the state, gives the population
OF Newport at 1000. Mr.. Nichols doubt
less obtained his information from some
county seat authority (?}. The chances
are that the aforesaid county seat au-
thority has never visited Newport. it
being too far away for him to venture
from home. OF course they are not
posted regarding Newport over there.
All they appear to care about this end
OF the county is to have us paw our pro-
portion OF taxes, so that they may spend
the amount in improvements-at Col
Vile and, for Colyille. Newport has a
population of about 1900 and is the
largest city in Stevens county. It is not
only the largest city, but the best CITY
and is growing more rapidly than any
other town in the county. Colyille
should come out of her dream.

GOOD EXAMPLE.

Brevity is the soul of wit. but it
isn't the soul of nominating speeches.
That is. not noticeably so. But In Ohio,
of all places, there has been a NOM
mating speech just made which wasn't
long, This is 1t; "Mr. Chairman: Il
nominate John Smith for commission
err. He was born on a farm, fit in the
army, earns an honest living, and all
the good things the other fellows said
of their candidates l say of mine,
and good deal more Nominate John.
and you will get a live man"
This isn't quite as brief as the ME
too" of the Indian who, having things
to sell, followed the long and elaborate
advertisement of a paleface with those
two adequate words. But it is a great
improvement on the ordinary nomi-
mating speech. There will be nominal
ing speeches enough this year, and
most of them will be so long that
their hearers, and even their makers
will be tired Wouldn't it be fine
thing if the successful candidate
should be nominated in brief speech
and then, after being elected. carry
out the idea by making messages
somewhat less than league long?

A NARROWING SUSPICION.

There seems to be narrowing sus-
picion that young gentlemen of Har-
ward can he athletic enough at the
wrong time and in the wrong place.
So Harvard freshmen who attend the
annual class dinner at the American
House. Boston, in the latter part of
this month will be under bonds to
keep the peace and to preserve the
hotel and its furnishings from dam
age. The class has put Up $500. which
will be forfeited if there is any de-
struction of property in connection
with the dinner. Last years freshman
class had to put up $500 for the same
purpose. The bond this year was rails
ed by 81 tax on each member of the
class. the money to be refunded if
there is no damage to pay for.
We sincerely hope that the suspicion
implied in this performance will prove
to have been unfounded. 1t would he
sad indeed if the great freshman class
of Harvard was a class Of mollvcod-
DIES. It probably isn't, but there would
be better way IN prove it than nv
paying 5000 for damage done at the
class dinner. The class should re-
strain its spirits and its energy until
it has a chance to win victories that

st. Louis may be a little off the
main line. In fact, 1t is. But 1t Is quite
a city. It's aspiration and confidence
are shown by the assertion that it Is
going to stop the use of profanity on
its streets. What 1t can do in a bust
ness way is shown by its pr ,duction
of Mckinley Edmiston, who Is fifteen
years DC and student in business
college. One night two years ago he
went home and said to his father,
"I'r go.rg into the newspaper selling

business was moved to It, Mckinley
made use of modern methods in inter
esting the boys working for him. lie
gave them banquet at his home and
planned other amusements for them.
Before long the street car was also
outgrown and store rented. The
father gave up his $3.50 a month Job
to accept one with his son at bet
ter salary.
That's about all, up to date. So far
this young man is doing much better
than John y. Rockefeller was at his
age. If he continues at the presen,
rate he. and ST, Louis through him, will

PRESIDENT TuTTLEs SUGGESTION

II was a pathetic appeal that Presl-
dent Iucius futile of the Boston ana
Maine railroad made in Boston to the
employees of the road, when presenting
reasons for a decrease of wages. The
enonloyes are first taken into his con-
fidence and a declaration made that
an emergency has come In the AFFAIRS
of the road. more grave than any
thing that has happened within my
experience" says Mr.. futile. The men
are asked to agree to a reduction OF
five per cent. until July I. "As those
who are employed by the company
are jointly interested with those VINO
own it, in bearing equitably the re-
suits arising in bad as we'll as In good
times says President Tuttle, every
one concerned will willingly agree to
make the small temporary sacrifice IN
their wages that I have suggested.
This is very different way of ap-
preaching the subject from former
times There is indicated spirit OF
fairness. It is advised that all hands
share "equitably" in the matter. II
is not reported, however, whether the
| owners of the road are willing to
forego their dividends, or how much
of cut they too agree to on this pro-
posed equitable basis.
If the road is in such a condition as
President Tuttles statement indicates
| it may be expected that the employees
would consider the situation In the
| light in which it is presented ano
show willingness to cooperate fol
the good of the road. 1t Is a situation
evidently that calls for the utmost
frankness in their negotiations as mer
with men. If the proposition of Pres
ident futile is truly equitable there
can be no reason for refusing to con
slider 1t in the light of fairness.
The morning journal-courier., 1908-03-10
A PROPER SUGGESTION.

And now 1t is suggested that the
United States buy Lower California
One Of the reasons given why il
should be bought is that it would
give us Magdalena Bsv for use as a
naval station Though Lower Califor-
fornia is a rather desolate and desert
ed land, Magdalena Bay is fine har-
Dor Its wide and deep waters are pro-
tected by a natural breakwater, the
island of St Margarita Here the bat
tleship feet will engage in target
practice, by permission of the Mexi-
can government, which, however. has
refused its consent TO small arms
practice on shore.
It wouldn't be a bit surprising II
this suggestion should strike the
country favorably. Lower California
really seems to be needed to finish
the map. That is, to finish 1t for
awhile. But if il should be concluded
that We want it we might not find IT
as easy to get as we have found Alas
ka, Porto Rico. the Hawaiian Islands
and the Philippines Mexico is a ma
tion which is growing in prosperity
and pride, and she might not want to
sell any Of her territory even to her
greatest and best friend Still, the
more the suggestion is looked at the
more proper it seems.

The BebsIed and the Hill.

1 remember. l remember the bobsled
and the hill;
In fancy I'm looking at the track be-
fore me still;
twas mile down to the river, where
the road abruptly turned,
And the bank was steep--I knew 1t, but
declined to be concerned;
[ remember, l remember how | started
down that day,
And began to wish / hadn't when the
sled got under way.
I remember, I remember how the fence
posts hurried past,
How the sled leaped over hummocks
with a grace too good to last,
How 1t raised up on its hind feet as
some wild and living thing,
Shying, now and then. at something
and then giving mad spring,
I remember. remember how the snow
flakes stung my face
AS ! looked with some misgivings at
the sudden turning place.
I remember. l remember the sweet lit
tie prayer / said
AS the bobsled made new efforts and
my cap flew from my head;
/ recalled my fathers warning and re.
membered mothers plea,
And numbing sort of sadness seemed
to settle over me;
I remember how the bobsled at the
curve shot through the air,
But remembrance of the matter / refer
to ceases there.

NOT so MERRY NOW.

1t isn't all fun to be a member of
the Mississippi legislature just now,
For the first time in its history the
Mississippi legislature finds itself fac
ing a regularly organized lobby of wo-
men. At first the members looked on
II as a laughing matter, and made
merry at the expense of the women
who had come to influence their acts.
Recently the smiles have left their
faces. for they have made the unex-
pected discovery that the women are
In grim earnest and are force which
must be reckoned with Mrs. H. B
Kell is in charge of the prohibition
forces, Mrs. A. H. Longino is at the
head Of the Old Ladies' Home move
ment and 1t is expected that Mrs. r
L. McLaurin will lead In a company
of women to work for the child la
Dor bills.
Pretty good causes these are for the
women to support. If the men are MOI
Influenced by this lobby much more
than they thought they would be 4
will be surprising.
