ought to be done by the en-

The interests of the differ
ent portions of the county are
almost identical, we have the
same advantages to offer, the
same opportunities to present
to the prospective settler, and
whatever will build up one
portion of the county will
have a beneficial effect on the
entire county, consequently
whenever anything is said or
done which Injuries one section
it is detrimental to some ex-
tent to the whole county. The
county is large enough anc
prosperous enough to support
two or more good towns, anc
while every citizens first du
t. is to build up his home
town, it is not advisable t.
attempt to do so by dispal a.,

That each town has been to
blam G to some extent for the
lack of harmony and good
win that has existed in the
past between the two places
is admitted by the unbiased
citizens of both towns. Neither
side had all the right or all
the wrong. Through slight
MISUNDERSTANDING and petty
jealousies the grim spectre of
luminosity stalked in. Little
matters have been exagger-
ated, mountains have been
made from mole hills, until a
feeling was engendered be-
tween the two towns that was
anything but desirable.
However, the day seems to
|
have dawned when the ma
jority of the people of both
towns have arrived at the
conclusion that the past ami
mosities and misunderstood
ings, which were only "skin.
deep" anyway, should be
sunk in the overmastering
thought of building up and
developing the entire county.
The people of Bear Lake are
nearer together in all that
constitutes kindred feeling
and common interest than
they have been for years.
They have awakened to the
fact that boquets are much
nicer than ephithets; com
pliments preferable to dis
paragement. Nothing is worse
for our commercial interests
or social welfare than the at
tempt to array one section of
the county against the other.

A GOOD VETO

Governor Stubbs' discernment in
vetoing the bill passed by the legisla-
ture which sought to change the meth
DDS in vogue for the payment of taxes
is appreciated by the county treas
urers and county commissioners in the
state, especially in the larger counties.
1t should be held in the same regard
by the taxpayers, for if the bill had
become a law some additional bur-
dens would have been placed on many
of them.
This measure, as it finally passed,
provided for the payment of two
thirds of the taxes on December 1 and
one-third of them on June 1. If the
two-thirds were not paid when due a
penalty of 5 per cent would lay
against the entire tax AS this meas
ure was originally prepared by the
tax commission it provided for the
payment of half of the taxes in
December and the other half in June.
If the one-half was not paid in Decem-
ber penalty of per cent would be
assessed to the entire tax, and there
would have been a penalty of the
graduated sort, of one per cent a
month on the half that was to be paid
in June. To this original bill there
was not much objection. as it would
have worked out with probably quite
as much efficacy as the present system
although there would have been no re
bate for the payment of an entire tax
in December.
As things now are and lust the
same as they used to be because of
the governors veto, if an entire tax is
paid in December a rebate of five per
cent on half of the tax is paid to the
taxpayer. 1t is possible to pay half
of the tax in December and the other
half in June without the assessment
of any penalty.
Under this system about eighty ner
cent of the taxes are paid in full in
December. But it was not believed
that the bill. which the governor
vetoed, would work out in this way
at all. 1t would have thrust an ex-
traordinary amount of additional work
on county treasurers in June, be-
cause it would require the making out
of just as many tax receipts for the
third of the tax to be paid then as it
did for two-thirds which was due in
December. This work would come at
a time when the county treasurer and
the county commissioners would be
busy getting out the delinquent tax
lists and it might possibly have been
the means thereby of invalidating tax
sales because there would not have
been time to attend to both these
matters.
But beyond this it would have prob
ably heaped considerable of a burden

There are a number of questions we

to live up to the expectations of the
women.
A boy usually learns to cuss by his
mother refusing to allow him to go

Men like women to admire them for
their future, and make no inquiries into
their past.
You have no doubt noticed that you
are always in favor of other people be-
ing very liberal.
Some peoples idea of getting ready
for company is to make marble cake,
and open a can of peaches.
Age has it's troubles for all of us.
With women, it is the middle age
spread; with men, 1t is badness.
When you abuse man. and some
one in your audience says, Il think he
is real nice" don't you feel foolish?
A touch of superstition is common to
most of US, but not strong enough to
make twelve dollars preferable to thir-
teen.
1t is possible for a man to have
good many friends one day, and almost
none the next. People like an excuse to
go back on man.
When a man talks. and those who
are younger look at each other sig
nifcantly, that means they think he is
very old, and not responsible.
An Atchison woman says: TT is true
that men are compelled to make the
living for their families, but they ought
to, to offset the work women do in curl

A single mans gallantry is no tax, as
it consists largely in saying nice
speeches., but, after marriage, it means
he must hand his earnings over to his
wife and ask no questions.
