Butte News: In the piping times,
when everybody Is a-hunger for land,
II may be unkind. but in no wise un-
fair to hint that farming is not joy
full occupation which allows the
farmer to loaf about his porch Ia the
shade and watch the merry little ten
drills climb upward into wheat and
oats and corn and barley. The fam
lily OF incompatible variety, the
weeds, begins early, after the bugs
that eat seeds have finished. The
happy. happy farmer has to get out
and annihilate the weeds, which re-
fuse to be licked, but, like the ter
rible Dane, come back and come back
to the finish. Granting that the
weeds are reduced to impotence, an
army OF bugs and mice and ticks and
such "animiles" comes along, to be
disposed Of In their turn; the irriga-
ton ditch has to be cleansed. Canada

bit which it had just cause to be

why this fair cannot be greater

Paul Clagstone, the Man for the People

Moscow Star Mirror: 1t is hard
to understand why the mere men
ton of the name Paul GLADSTONE for
Governor arouses such a storm OF
protests from the old republican
gang, unless it be that the courage
Gus stand Mr.. Clagstone took dur
ing the last session of the legisla-
ture in behalf of honest legislation,
and in opposition to the plans of
the old platform repudiators, won
for him the eternal hatred of the
old ring. The Star-Mirror does not
know whether or not Mr.. Clagstone
is candidate, for he has not yet
announced himself, but we know
that, judged by his political career
il the tenth session of the legisture
he has some of the qualifications Of
a great man. He proved himself
a true friend of the people, stand
ing for all that was clean and right
in legislation. He even gave Idaho
an exhibition of republican legis-
lator, a speaker OF thehouse, whose
promise was as good as gold. No
man can say that Paul Clagstone,
as speaker, ever betrayed pro-
mise, or was a party to dirty deal.
In all his conduct he was upright,
manly and honorable. He stood
for nothing that was detrimental
to the people. He did not once
even attempt to barter away the
public interest for private gain !;
never once ATTEMPTED to use his poll.
tical prestige for personal ends.
Paul Clagstone is young man,
He may never be chosen by the
people of the state as their chief
executive, but one thing is certain,
he is man. Paul Clagstone is the
kind of a man the republican
party of this state might well feel
proud of, and the kind that the
people cannot afford to overlook.
Certainly uncalled for is the per-
sonal abuse now being heaped upon
him for no other reason than that
the old republican gang fear him.
His election would mean their
eternal doom.

A great deal of interest is taken

Every section of the state is to be

Ringing Bros. Circus at Spokane

On Monday, August 8, Ringing
Brothers, Worlds Greatest Show is
to isit Spokane, Wash. coming
this season with new laurels won
at Madison Square Garden in New
York because of the unprecedent
excellence of their performances.
1t is in all respects the very best
circus that was ever organized and
the two performances that will be
given in afternoon and evening
will be given exactly as they we're
presented in Manhattan, no. the
slightest change having been made
since the season opened there.
There are no less than seven sem
sations on the program, any one of
which is great enough to give a
circus distinction. There are the
wonderful Schumann horses which
waltz on their hind legs, drink
from large glasses and roll each
other around in huge beer barrels;
elephants that use the telephone,
conversing with each other over
the wire from one end of the main
tent to the other; the thrilling
double somersaulting automobile
act. performed by young French
girl; Roblidello, the Mexican wire
wizard; the wonderful Torch fam
lily of acrobats and 100 great acts
that are new to America.
This will be the only opportun-
ity for the people of Boomers Ferry
to see Ringing Brothers's circus,
and probably never again will such
an array of European talent be
seen under one management, as the
expense of giving such program
is almost beyond belief.
Ths parade will be given at 10
o'clock in the morning and it is an
entirely new spectacle.

What Hope?

Mr.. Aldrich states that there are two
indispensable requirements in any plan
to be adopted involving a central bank OF
of issue. The one is that the control of
the monetary system thall kept free from
Wall Street influences and other that it
shall not be manipulated for political pur-
poses. These are two principles to which
we can all subscribe.-From President
Taft's speech at Boston.
Does Mr.. Taft know of any method by
which a central bank of issue could be
kept free from Wall street influences or
from political manipulation?
When the United States Treasury a n
not be kept free from such influences,
what hope is there in a central bank Of
issue with power to contract or expand
the currency at will? If the currency
system a be reformed only by substi-
tuting a greater evil for a lesser evil, it
had better be left unregenerated.-World

The old saying, "Wet weather will
starve you to death and dry weather
will scare you to DEATH" is proving
true. Food is being sent to the dis
tricts where the floods destroyed crops
and dwellings in Texas aud Mexico. 1t
is reported that the damage to crops
throughout the South caused by recent
storms is probably the greatest in the
history Of the country and will amount
to ten millions of dollars. N0twith-
standing the drought in the middle
States the farms have such large crop
of tomatoes that Gamers cannot take
all and the quality was never finer.
The sweet potato crop will be fair and
the farmers, while they will have very
little beyond a living, will be better off
than where the floods of rain fell.
