more, the main streets are no
place for teams to be tied where
every noise and commotion is
liable to cause them to break
loose and run away. A plentiful
supply of good, stout hitching
racks should be erected on some
of the side streets for the accom-
mediation of the farmers who
come here to trade and the
money so spent WILDE decidedly
we'll invested. 1t is worth some
thing, also, to have our principal
streets open for the use OF
pedestrians on busy days instead
of having them crowded with
teams and cayuses.

A move is being made by a
number of our citizens to
organize another commercial club
in Cottonwood. The move is
a decidedly good one and should
have the hearty support of all of
our progressive citizens. During
the short life of the former club
a great deal of good was done
for the town and had the citizens
held together and attended the
meetings the club would be work
ing for the welfare and upbuild-
ing of our city yet today. AS it
is, we believe another club should
be organized and every citizen
join in in helping to make it a
successful one. There are
great many things that can be
taken up now for the betterment
of our town and community, and
with the business men and town
council working in harmony such
matters can be handled easily
and successfully. By all means
let the club be brought to life
again. q

answer reached his fathers ears

him, he said: Waiter, I'll take

People of this country who are
dissatisfied over the amount of
rain we have been having can
thank their lucky stars that they
are not residents of the low
lying districts of Oklahoma or
Texas, as both of those states
are now suffering from severe
floods caused by heavy rains and
the property loss will amount to
many millions of dollars before
the high water subsidies. Traffic
of all kinds there is tied up and
the loss of several lives is al
ready reported, with perhaps
many more to follow.

dents of both towns will join in

There are very few towns the
size of Cottonwood in this state
that are as well equipped with
sidewalks as is this place, but we
believe we voice a puplic senti-
ment when we say that we
should have a walk laid to our
cemeteries. At present we can
get there only during dry
weather without using a team
and we believe if a walk was
once built there more people
would visit the cemeteries and
the graves of the departed would
be kept more slightly. If the
city board cannot construct the
walk why not try a subscription
paper and raise the amount that
way. 1t will be easily done, we
feel sure.

MEANS CLEANER POLITICS.

The Star Mirror of Moscow,
in the following able manner,
gives expression to a sentiment
just now asserting itself among
republican editors throughout
Idaho,
Judging by what is appearing
in the independent press of Idaho,
and this includes many news
papers heretofore classed as
partisan, the people are getting
pretty weary of so-called republi-
can machine politics and conse-
quent fractional fights, and will
welcome the opportunity to lend
their aid in effecting change
after next November.
1t is not well for a party to be-
come too strong and continue too
long in control of public affairs.
In their mad strife for continued
control of patronage, party deal
ers, particularly the machine
kind, are very apt to forget a
party's duty to the sovereign
people until these same people
find it necessary to apply the
proper remedy. If Idaho passes
to democratic control it will be
merely an incident quite common
in the history of every party in
almost every state.
A party no sooner grows svffi-
GENTLY strong to control the
official affairs of state when those
whose business is politics and
whose constant aim is to control
party patronage appear on the
scene. The result is a political
machine which makes ,fealty to
itself and blind submission to its
dictates and methods a necessary
qualification in the seeker after
office, and all other persons who
may have ambitions, but have
too much independence to become
fawning creatures of a machine,
are invariably turned down, no
matter what might be their
claims on the party or their real
merit. The independent very
naturally resents such treatment
at the hands of a party which he
may have served faithfully and
remained loyal to for many
years and he very justly begins
the exercise of his prerogative as
a free born citizen by ignoring
party lines at the polls. The
Star-Mirror heartily endorses
and commends such a course,
even though it means sacrifice of
so-called party principle, and the
only regret is that such independ-
ent spirits are not more numer-
GUS.
Less hide-bound partisanship
and more independence in the
exercise of electors judg-
ment will mean better and clean
er government for the people.

BASE BALL NOTES.

The Kamiah ball team will play
the first team at Grangeville to-
day.
Grangeville has raised $500 for
a celebration and figures on a big
base ball tournament there on
July I'd, Sd and 4th.
The local high school ball team
went to Grangeville Tuesday to
play a game with similar team
there but a heavy storm of rain
prevented the game being
played.
The game at the local park
Tuesday afternoon between the
merchants and saloon men was
won by the former by a score of
II to Ii. Quite a crowd witness
ed the game and seemed to enjoy
themselves fully as we'll as did
the players.
The Vollmer ball team got de-
feated at Grangeville last Satur-
day by score of 3 to 2. The
game broke up in a row in the
eighth inning and the visitors
left the field. One of the Voll-
mer players got hit on the ear
with ball during the game and
was laid out for several innings.

wholly inadequate and, further

Through many parts of the
country the farmers are begin
ing to select choice names for
their farm homes. 1t is a nice
habit and could well be adopted
here. Select a nice name and
then improve your place to fit the
the name. Have some stationery
appropriately printed and your
place will become known far and
near by its new name.
