Cousin Sereno's Psalm of Life.

Tell us not in mournful numbers
We are making mistake;
Still the duped consumer slumbers,
He will never get awake.
We care nothing for petitions;
Sign and send them if you please,
Still we'll fix up fine conditions
For our infant industries.
Let the women vent their sorrow;
If the gloves they wear to-day
Shall be full of holes tomorrow,
Can't they mend the things some way
When the voters 60 to battle
Are they heroes in the strife?
They are like dumb driven cattle,
And we'll drive 'em, betcher life.
Trusts are lovely, trusts are pleasant!
Notwithstanding what is said!
Where does Lands stand at present?
Why, he might as well be dead.
Lives of Littauers all remind us
That high duties are sublime;
On his side, therefore, you find us
Cheaper gloves would be crime.
Scorn your sister and your mother
If they happen to complain;
Let them darn their stockings, brother;
Tea befogs a woman's brain.
You will find us up and doing,
Always adding to the rate,
Never cutting down nor hewing,
Let consumers pay the freight

GENERAL NOTES OF INTEREST.

iston and Portland has proven so sue
cessful that capital is being attracted
to it as an investment A capitalist
at Portland is completing arrangements
for putting boat line in commission
on that run The Open River trans
portation company's manager says his
company will heartily welcome the
new line, as it will have beneficial
effect on their business.
Twenty-Five settlers in the Clarkia
section, whose filings were rejected at
the Lewiston land office last week,
have employed lawyers and will carry
their cases up to the general land
office. The local office held that the
filings conhicted with prior script filings
made by the Northern Pacific.
The difficulty between Vollmer and
lilo over the school matters still goes
on undated. Ito has the legal site
and Vollmer has built new brick
school building and appropriated the
school furniture. llo has secured a
writ of mandamus from Judge Steele
ordering the return of the furniture.
This, it is expected, will throw the
two towns into long drawn out legal
scrap. The locating of two towns
side by side with separate governments
is one of the foolest things ever
planned by man; and is certainly a
source of unalloyed pleasure to bis
satanic majesty, if there is such per-
sonage as the old fashioned devil has
been pictured to be. So far as peace
and happiness, and brotherly love
goes, town lot in hades would be
just about as desirable.

JOSEPH EAKIN SELLS FOR $4,000.
Sells out After Fifteen Years in the
Mountains Near Dixie.

The Lewiston Tribune: After
spending fifteen years on a small claim
located in an isolated section of the
upper Salmon river, an Idaho pioneer,
Joseph Eakin, has sold his holdings
for S28, 900 and will bring his wife to
Lewiston the latter part of the present
month, according to the report re-
ceived in the city Yesterday.
The property consists of small bar
adjoining the river and has been pur-
chased by an eastern company as a
placer mine. The presence of gold
on the property has been known for
many years and with the crude rocker
or pan two men have been able to
extract from SIS to $50 a day The
bond was secured by the eastern cap
italists last fall and early this spring
the development of the bar was COM
menced with large force of men.
Excavations to bedrock have been
made at numerous places about the
property and the showings of placer
gold have been such that the bond
was taken up but short time ago.
The operation of the mine will ne
cessitate the expenditure of consid-
cradle sum in the installation of a hy-
draullc system and it was because of
this condition that Mr.. Eakin was
unable to operate the mine on his
own account.
AT the time the settlement on the
river bar was made MIR. Eakin was
enroute to one of the mining camps
then booming and discovering the low
plateau concluded to make it his home
and engage in gardening Since that
time he has packed for the miners and
sold his produce in the mining camps.
His faithful wife has at all times been
his companion and at one time she
did not see the face of woman FOR a
period of FIVE years.
Mr.. and Mrs. Eakin are well known
in Lewiston having first settled on the
property located near the head of
Swallows Nest gulch and known as
the Eakin homestead. During the
last few years they have visited Lew
iston at frequent intervals and it is ex-
pected they will again make their
home here. Mr.. Eakin was sheriff
of Nez Perez county in 1923 on the
democratic ticket.

She Earned the Sixpence.


A man had been in the habit Of get
ting his tea at a certain London res
taurant for many years without any
cause for complaint. Lately an Irish
waitress, new to the job, was employed
at the place, and from lack Of expert
ence she invariably brought the liquid
refreshment with the most part Of It
in the saucer.
This the gentleman could stand no
longer
"Look here, Bridget" said he one
evening, eff you bring my tea tomor-
row without spilling a drop in the
saucer I'll give you sixpence for your
SELF"
"AIl roight, sorr." replied Bridget
"Oi will do that, sorr."
The following evening the gentleman
appeared and gave his order as usual.
Imagine his surprise when a moment
or two later the girl was observed
vending her way toward him carrying
a plate of bread in one hand and cup
Of tea in the other.
"And what has become Of the saucer,
Bridget?' inquired the man.
"Shure enough, sorr," replied the
girl, ito make roight shure Of the six
pence yorr honor promised me OF
thought it best to lave the saucer on
