A FINE CALENDAR

Among the many fine calendars
sent out this holiday season is a re-
production of a painting by CASTOR
Anglade portraying scene in France.
It is furnished to the customers OF
The Blackfoot State Bank, and the
publishers say of It:
| THE scene of this painting is near
Treignac, a town of south central
France. The most striking feature
Is the mass of Towering heather
which covers all the ground. Not
only does 1t clothe the immediate hill
side in tones of reddish pink, but so
thickly Is 1t spread over the distant
heights that the color is reflected in
the very clouds, and the atmosphere
itself seems premeated by the domin-
ating color. On crest in a bend of
the stream rises an old feudal tower,
the twelfth-century stronghold of
some robber count. From this COM
handing position, river and road lay
ever under his watchful eye, and woe
to the traveller who had the temerity
to venture that way. That tower
now stands in ruins and unoccupied,
while the present owner lives in the
more modern buildings to the rear.
Where once the wayfarer was forced
by a band of armed marauders to
pay tribute, flock of sheep now
peacefully Craze. Thus do past and
present mingle in the sunny land of
France.
CASTOR Anglade, one of the greatest
of modern French artists, was born
in Bordeaux, France, in 1854. His
parents intended him for the priest
hood, but just before he was to take
Orders. strain of wild blood in his
veins asserted itself, and he fled to
Paris. Here for many years he lived
a Bohemian life in the Latin Quarter.
lining like prince after some one
had bought picture, and almost
starving when his luck was bad |
flally he was reconciled to his fam
lily, who saw the futility of their
ecclesiastical ideas, ad thus relieved
from want, he reached foremost
rank among his countrymen. He
has exhibited many pictures ION the
line at the Paris Salon, and they
have won for him many golden opin-
IONS from art connoiseurs.

REFERENDUM AND RECALL

Seattle is going to have a recall
election. The Public Welfare League
of the city has secured the necessary
number of signatures among the
qualified voters of the city to a petit
ton to the city council asking that
recall election be held In ordexa to
give the people a chance to say
whether or not they wish to continue
Hiram Gill as Mayor. Who will be
nominated to run against Gill has not
been settled. 1t is charged that Gill
has permitted gambling to exist in
the city, and that his Chief of Police
is of the CRATER variety. The cleo
ton will probably be held early in
the new year. The press of the city
is divided on the subject of the recall.
The Post-Intelligencer and an after
noon paper are in favo of throwing
Gill out. The Times is supporting
the Gill administration. A committee
lof the city council, which investigated
lthe charges against the adfninistra-
tion, reported against the Chief of
Police and recommended his removal

a good, practical business man about
accepting liquor advertising. and he
summed it all up in this way: IF
we're running a newspaper, would
sell my advertising space to Tom,
Dick or the angels for anything they
wanted to insert, and / would leave
my readers to Judge whether they
wanted IL or not. A newspaper is
like a common carrier in furnishing
service for the whole public, and 1t
is not expected that any individual
will use it all, any more than pass
enger on a train will want all the
seats in a car or in the train. Edit
orial expression belongs to the editor,
but aside from that the paper should
be open to serve the whole public
That was good advice, butt it took
us good many years to become
entirely satisfied to adapt our policy
to it.

II your convictions run in line

you would be surprised to see how
very, loyal some of our temperance
friends are to newspaper that is

to know how many temper

quires very sweet disposition TO

STEERING EMIGRATION WEST
WARD

Editorial from the Western Banker)
During the last few years thou
sands of farmers in the middle west,
and thousands of dollars have gone
into Canada, Oklahoma and Texas.
This has been the result of the, we'll
organized effort from Canada and the
southwest and lack of competition on
the quart of the west and northwest.
1t is not only of advantage to the
states in the newest west, but also
to the states in the Missouri river
valley, that the resources of the west
ern half of the continent should be
developed and the valleys peopled.
The history of pioneer movement
has been, since the settlement! of our
country, that people have moved due
westward across the continent. For
example, the people of Virginia set
tied Kentucky, the Kentuckians set
tied Missouri Missourians are settling
Arkansas, New Mexico and Arizona.
Colorado has drawn most largely
from Nebraska, Kansas, Iowa and III
inois. The great railroad trunk lines
likewise run almost due west. The
natural drift Of population is along
the lines of least resistance and from
the Missouri river valley it should be
to the intermountain and Pacific
coast states. With a lack of organ
lied opposition this stream has been
diverted very largely to Canada, Okla
homa and Texas.
Today the Missouri river valley is
furnishing more people and more
money to the new sections than from
any other territory, because of the
fact that the surplus earnings are
large and great many farmers who
h omesteaded or bought their land al
a low price are able to sell out at a |
big profit, and they very naturally |
figure on doing the same thing owe,
again in new country. These peo-
pie are going to invest their money
in land somewhere. The only uues-
ton, from the standpoint of the west
ern bankers interest, is where they
will go and what land they will buy?
You can make "p your mind that
some of the people viii move some
where and many will keep right on
putting their moneyftn land.
For the first time there is an Or
sanized movement to direct this tide
Of emigration westward. The move
nent has been started by the publish
,rs Of The Omaha Bee and The Twen-
ieth Century Farmer, which publ
.ations have been devoting a very
arge amount of space and very
effort in that direction.
They have likewise aroused the act
witty of the interested railroads
Hill system, the Hartman system,
he Northwestern and the Chicago,
and st. Psnl II
In order to promote their work,
nd as means to this end, This pub q
sher has organized the Western
and Products Exhibit, which will be
cid in Omaha in January, 1R11. t.
There will be exhibits from every
