How to Meet a Panic.

The Washington Post says for every
person to live within their income and
panic cannot drive them to bankruptcy.
Live beyond your income and bank
ruptcy, with hideous mein, may cross
your threshold at any moment. AS for
credit, it is blessing or curse, as it
is providently used or prodigally abused.
1t has made 10000 fortunes and it has
dissipated as many.
The Post thinks the American people
are not as thrifty as they should be.
They produce so prolifcally that they
waste with all too much prodigality.
The furry in Wall street is local; but
any day, when speculation is greatest,
it may sweep over the land as in 1873
and 1893 and force a liquidation uni
versal The best way to meet it is to
spend less than you make. That is the
only way to meet it and come out alive.

Stunning the Horny Hand.

The Coffeyville (Kansas) Independent
says: We are educating our young men
for idle gentlemen, trying to make
lawyers and preachers, doctors and
clerks out of material that is needed
for blacksmiths, carpenters, merchants
and other honest 'hewers of wood and
drawers of water" 1t is mistake
and big one to teach boys and girls to
believe that labor is disgraceful and to
do nothing for living is more becom-
ing to society. There are sons and
daughters who are now being educated
to play the leading LADY, and walk
ing gentleman in the great drama of
life who will light out for the poor
house or the penitentiary before the
curtain drops on the last sad act of the
play to which they have been educated
by their too indulgent parents.

The Publishers Reward.

A new citizen down near Meadows
dropped into the Eagle Office the other
day, plunked down the cash for year
subscription for the paper, and asked,
$50 here's where the meanest man in
the valley lives, is it," Editor Hack
ney says he'll bet hat that that man
had been talking with one of last week s
jurors.
You're in luck, Brother Hackney.
It's all right to land on jury or take
a fall out of Standard Oil. but don't you
ever, ever, ever whisper thing against
a catalogue house, or you'll hear things
about yourself you never knew before.
But it's good experience People
always want a paper that stands for
principles and says things straight from
the shoulder, but the editor who under
takes to lead such strenuous life soon
finds that the citizen who is most clam
orous for the unctuous newspaper is
usually the first to sdueal when the
paper says something that doesn't set
square with his idea of the matter.

SUBSCRIPTION RATES.:
Charmed by the Price.

The price tag charms the best Of us;
Cigars that for nickel go
We pass with scorn but smoke with
joy
If they are in. the ten cent row.
A straw hat marked at fifty cents
Would hardly seem to be fit;
The same one priced three ninety
eight
We see and make dive for it.
We see picture on the wall
That to our eye appears to be.
A ten cent chrome, or perhaps
A work of art that came with tea,
But when the owner comes and says
He paid thousand for that bit
And thinks he got it cheap at that,
Then we sit up and notice it.
We see rooster strutting round
With pride that seems almost alb
surd.
He has some feathers and tail
And seems like any other bird,
He looks to be common scrub
Until we get his pedigree
And find he captures every prize,
And then his beauty we can see.
That is the way with everything,
From marbles to cake of ice.
We may be experts in the line,
But still we judge it by the price.
Were it diamond in the rough
And worth fortune any time,
We wouldn't give it storage room
If it were listed at dime.

The Game of Politics in Idaho.

Politicians in this state are making
great stir at this time in an endeavor
to line up the faithful in the respective
parties, for the election next November.
1t requires no more than ordinary com
mon sense and honesty for one to see
that party lines are scattered and pre-
sent much the appearance of the land
scape after cyclone has passed over.
Idaho has suffered from the same cause
that has made other states suffer.
There are too many men who make
politics their business who do not get
much encouragement from the individ-
ual voter, but being possessed of an
unlimited amount of gall and willing
ness to serve the masters, they manage
to crowd in somehow.
1t is really amusing to see how the
political setting hens over the state are
counting their brood before they are
Matched. Take the republican crowd;
they didn't carry out one promise they
made in their platform to the people
two years ago, and yet they expect to
elect state ticket next fall and carry
Idaho for Bill Taft, that decoy pushed
out by an administration that has done
little else but fan the air and cry for
help, and is willing to do anything that
Wall street wants.
1t seems the democrats have no bet
ter prospects than. the republicans, on
state matters. The party is hopelessIy
split on the Mormon question. The
game of politics with the democrats in
Idaho has not been made the science
that it is in the opposition camp. You
even find men among the democrats Of
Idaho who do their own thinking, in
this late day and age of politics. There
are few political game cocks among
the democrats who know that principles
must be sacrificed in order to win sue
cess = in politics. Others of the party,
who are patriots, want to fight the
fight on principle and take the dominat
ing influence Of the Mormon church Out
of state affairs. Fred 7. Dubois, once
United States senator from Idaho
elected by the republicans, is leading
the fight againt the Mormon church
Dubois made record for real service
while in the senate, and, of course, go
out of harmony with the political set
