Entire Evening Spent BY the City
Council in Discussing the
Proposition.
FAR AS EVER FROM SOLUTION


After another entire evening spent in
discussion of the telephone license that
veXed problem is now as far as ever
from solution. Nine members of the
city council, with President Lane of
the Rocky Mountain Bell company and
Manager Harvey of the Independent
company were present, and for three
hours the question as to how much aud
In what manner shall the city derive
revenue from the companies named,
was discussed. The Bell corporation,
especially. has had about its own way
in the past in the matter of compensat-
Ing the city for its franchise and the
privilege of doing business year by
year, and from a statement made by
President Lane last night the company
considers itself still in the saddle
Mr.. Lane told the members of the
council plainly that IL license were
eXacted from his company, the public
would have the bill to pay in the shape
of an increase of rates. He absolutely
refused to consider for q moment the
suggestion of new franchise, with a
clause prohibiting for a term of years
any Increase in rates.
MOTION CARRIES.
Mr. Lanes attitude brought the
meeting 10 a close while a motion TO
the effect that the company pay / per
cent of its gross receipts to the city was
pending. The motion carried with it
the proviso that 80 free telephones he
furnished to the municipality. During
the evening motion made by Mr.. Han
to the effect that the city attorney bo
instructed to begin suit at once to col
lect a license beginning Jan. /, 1905,
leaving out the matter of back taxes
Mr.. Hall received the support of Mr.,
Murdoch Messrs. Fernstrom. CowbuIn,
Martin, Hodgson and Raybould voting
negatively; Davis and Reedall asking
TO be excused.
MIR. LANE SATISFIED.
Mr. Hall took the ground that the
Bell company admitted that it should
pay for its privilege in some manner, in
view of the fact that it is now giving
the city the free use Of 40 telephones,
but President Lane considered that it
was solely a matter of courtesy and
gift to the municipality, He said his
company was well satisfied with its
present franchise, and did not ask for
nor want another.
The gist of the matter so far as the
Willingness of the Bell company to pay
for its privileges was concerned, was
that it would pay l per cent of its
phons. with no restrictions as to rates
for the public. This would bring a
revenue to the city of about $1,000 Il
year Some members of the council
insist on a license of so cents n year
on each telephone in commission, and
others would be satisfied with the
per cent proposition, with so free tele-
phones and the restrictions on rates to
patrons.

Man and Woman.

In the beginning God made the heavens and the
earth. He lit up the heavens with the sun by day
and the stars by night He created the birds of the
air. the beasts of the forest and the fish of the sea-
He made the beautiful hills and the smiling valleys,
the shady groves and the babbling brooks, the
gorgeous rainbow and the warbling BIRDS in short,
beautiful and plenteous world garden of Eden
Then He created man. and made him ruler over all
He surveyed the picture and was not satisfied
There something missing, something without
which all else nothing. He saw the sun was
king of the day. the queen of the night, the
like great family of bright-eyed children In all
nature and companionship; but man was
alone. Then God made woman, and gave her to
a companion, friend wife, the last but best,
of his creations, the connecting link between
heaven and earth, between man and his God.
From that day to this she has been his guardian
angel From the cradle to the grave
"She sits by his heart, when it sinks in sorrow
Singing out the dark night, singing i'll the bright
morrow"
She says unto him. as Ruth said to Naomi:
Whittier thou goest, | will CO. and where thou
odgest | will lodge; thy people shall be my people,
and thy God my God."-Jewish Ledger.

After you have accepted mans love try and real

Some girls make and break engagements of mar

Do not lead man on to propose merely for the
satisfaction of conquest. Human hearts are not

That all sounds like very large compact, girls,
but that is what you responsible for when you

Try and bring out all that is best in your fiance;

Don't look on him as merely the man who can

Reflections of Bachelor Girl.

A looks upon matrimony as a sacrament;
man regards it sacrifice. Both are right

to write as many letters one girl who is just
little bit in love.
Allowing for the difference in perspective, after
ALL husbands just like other men,
When two people wake up from loves young
dream, the womans first thought is, "How can I
patch it up !" the mans, How can I break it off"
mans anxiety to talk about his latest love
affair is only equaled by his recence regard to all
those that have gone before
Matrimony to a bachelor is like salad, band

feels suspicious of what's in it.

Mrs. Rebecca Mitchell.

The Blackfoot Republican gives the follow
ing account of a very amable woman of Idaho,
who merits all the good things said of her. and the
wide acquaintance of the subject of this article,
throughout Idaho, warrants its reproduction in full
The subject of this sketchis worthy gilmore mention
than able to give because unfamiliar with her
life in any of its interesting details. We have called
to see her several times at her home, but unfor
tunately, she has been too feeble at those times
to talk much. She is, however, very dear to the
women of Idaho who interested in lettering its
conditions developing its economic resources, educat
ing the coming generations and removing from their
midst unhealthy, immoral surroundings. She was
born in MaCoupin county, Ill., January %, 1884, in
the midst OF big snow storm that caused much in
convenience when such important matters the
arrival of a new baby took place in the country in
those days. Her life in childhood and early girlhood
proved uneventful so far as our knowledge extends.
When she became grown she taught school in her
native state, and was an earnest worker in the Baptist
Sunday school, She came to Idaho in 1892 with lit
tie thought of becoming the only in the world
who selected to chaplain in a state SEN
ate chamber. She a charter member of the w.
c. II. u, organized at that time at Idaho Falls.
There were fifteen charter members, among whom
were Mrs. Sarah Smith, Mrs. IT, NJ Stewart and Mrs
Madden of Pocatello. Mrs. Mitchell could not recall
the others at the time. She became state organ
field of work for five years. This involved much
hard stage travel and exposure to extreme cold and
hard winds
Among her stage journeys were Salmon, 70 miles.
Maad 40, and from Lewiston to Grangeve, rs miles
She chaplain of the house of representatives two
years, from 1897 to 1899, the only woman in the
world occupying like position. When the
reached foreign Shores she was written to by many
prominent people, some offering congratulations,
others from desire to know by letter the woman
who dared pray publicly for state and its servants
She has written historical sketch of the parts of
Idaho with which she is familiar that is of consider
able value She is still strong believer in the part
club women are taking in Idaho affairs. She always
has a message of inspiration, encouragement and
