Some papers are discussing tn
question whether lying Is or is not
on the increase. A great man thOus-
ands of years ago wrote, II said in
my haste, all men are liars" AS one
reads of the readiness and fluency
with which some politicians lie, and
also many witnesses in corporation
suits. he is inclined to think that the
same judgement may be passed, not
hastily but calmly. Lying may be an
evil exceedingly hard to eradicate but
it would have wholesome effect
if perujred witnesses, especially If
they are public officials, were punish
according to their deserts. 1t might
at least have a deterrent influence.

Oneida County in the southern part
Of the state had local option cleo
ton on the 25th and the returns
show that there were five dry votes
cast to every wet vote 1t will be
remembered that Oneida has been
a dry county through the actions Of
the Co lnty commissioners refusing to
grant licenses for the past year The
result of this election certainly ought
to convince anyone who is honest or
thinks he is, in hisconviction that
abolishing the saloon will mean dis
ruption of all business enterprises,
that he is decidedly in error. OF
course to the man who stands by
the liquor interest because he likes
the booze or because his only source
comes from that class of people the re
suit in Oneida county only means
that hemust fight all the harder to
keep his friend the saloon in the
county because If the prohibition
principle is given a fair chance in a
community the saloon and its attend
ant evils will be forever banished and
that man will have losthispower.

Is the men who wore the blue that are
specially remembered and In, the Othe
the men who wore the grey.
It is a holy day. day OF peculiar
pathOs and Renaissance. Everything
combines to make it so. 1t is seen
in the fast thinning ranks of the men
who fought so valiantly nearly fif-
ty years ago, and in the rapidly in
creasing number Of green mounds in
the cemeteries of the north and south
1t is also seen in the memorial char.
acter of the day, in the utterances
of speakers who extol the heroi
and virtues of both the dead and the
living, and in the reverent and re;
ligious character Of the exercises.
Such a day should be suitably OBJ
served. No self. respecting family
wo lid think of celebrating with boist-
erous mirth and sports a day formally
set apart as a memorial Of deceased
members of the family. This nation
is vast and united family which ha
set apart aday in each year in order
that it may dohonortoits dead sons.
1t should be reverently observed. Ye
in too many Places the whole spirit
of the day is violated andbut little
tho lght Is given to itsrealpurposes,
beca ase it is devoted to sports, a.
musements, and oftentimes to drink
ing. In an increasing number of places
where the spirit of reverence asserts
| tself and the design of the day Is
kept in view, such doings are for
hidden. No one wants to curtail the
pleasures and port loving instincts
of people, but Memorial Day is not
the time for their expression.

The Imperial rescript abOlishing
slavery in China probably marks one
important step towards the adoption
of constitutional government for
that country. No nation, no matter
how exclusive it's past traditions, or
the alb 90 utism of its rulers can escap
the subtle influence of western ideas
1t is both interesting and suggestive
to note the important part that this
country has played, in one way and
another, in helping to create these
new mad ameliorative conditions.

We are a nation of citizens not of
soldiers and in keeping Decoration
Day we do not glorify war or seek to
inflame the evil passions of men. AS
we think of the thousands of dead
heroes and of the veterans who sur
vive. and as we view the tattered en-
signs pierced by shot and shell on
many a battle field we would glorify
peace not war, and union not discord.
And we can best show our respect TO
both dead and living heroes by bury
ing al prejudices and animosities and
by promoting the good will and unity
throughout all the land.

DESPITE the efforts of the
residents of Medbury and vi
cinity to retain the old post
office name, the place will be
changed to Hammett. Advices
have been received from the
post Office department at Wash
ington, D. c. that the change
will take place July LIST. After
that date there will be no more
Medbury in Elmore county. 1t
was believed by most people
that the department would not
order the change, owing to the
fact that there is another post
Office in the state whose name
it closely resembles, = that of
Emmett = Hammett. The resi-
dents of Medbury have fought
bitterly against the change, but
as usual the railroads are law,
constitution, government and
the whole thing, and any voice
of protest from the people is
overruled when that of a cor
poration is heard.

WHO Is He?

THIS question will doubtless
be asked by many people who
will read this issue of the Filler
Journal.
Well, he halls from Nebras-
ka, where he conducted news
papers for a good many years.
In politics he is a democrat, and
in religion a Presbyterian (by
marriage.) He is a pretty in.
dependent sort of an individual
and has opinions on all ques-
tons and the very doubtful
propriety of expressing them
as occasion demands. The long
err you know him the better you
will like him. His sole ambi-
ton is to publish the best paper
in Twin Falls county. Inasmuch
as he has located in the best
town on the tract, he expects
to be able to satisfy this ambi-
ton to the fullest Filler is not
as large as Twin Falls in point
of numbers, but is easily a win
ner when il comes to quality.

SUPERSTITION dies hard and

SUPERSTITION dies hard and
for that reason there are found,
even in this enlightened age,
many people who are scared
out of their wits by the appear
ance of Halley's comet. But it
is reassuring to find that the
comet does not effect stocks
and that the real estate market
is as lively as ever; all of which
indicates confidence that this
old world is going to revolve as
usual long after the comet pas
ses on its mysterious journey.

WELL, aren't you glad the
comet did not strike the earth?

The Bingville Fire Department
lis a delushion and a snare, or in
other words it is what YOU might
call a farce. We have called atten-
shion to this fact in previous edi-
Itorials, but what good has it ever
did? We answer, no good. The
Bingville Fire Department is the
Laughing stock Of other surround
ing towns which have better fire
departments than we have. Take
the rival town OF Hardscrabble.
| for instance - Hardscrabble re-
CARDS the Bingville Fire Depart
ment as joke, and laying all Jokes
aside, we as editor and prop Of
the Bingville Bugle also regard it
as a joke.
Last Thursday we had another
sample of the undergraduates of
the Bingville Fire Department
when Luke Peters henhouse
Iketched fire from a spark which
was waited by the wind from a
fire in the backyard, over which
Mrs. Peters was making soft soap,
to the henhouse, and lodged in the
dry shingles, and before Mrs.
Peters noticed it, the henhouse was
in flames, but she hOllered Fire"
as loud as she could holler and the
lcry was took up from mouth to
mouth until it was all over Bing-
vile and reached the ears of Jason
Tucker, chief of the Bingville Fire
Department, who carries the KEY
to the Town Hall basement, where
the water pals which constitutes
the Bingville Fire Department is
kept, and Jason he felt for the KEY
in his pocket, and to his horror
and conservatism it wasn't there,
so he run home and asked his wife
where the dognaShlon the tTe de-
partment key was, and she was so
excited and nerved up that she
couldn't think where it was, and
so she and Jase, with great pres
ence of mind, ransacked the house
from cellar to attic, and in their
excitement pulled the mattresses
lofen the beds and nearly tore up
all the carpet often one floor, until
finally Mrs. Tucker remembered
that she had went and put the fire
department key in the clock on the
mantel, and went and got it and
handed it to Jase, after which she
| fell in a swoon, and then Jase he
linked out for the Town Hall,
where the other members of the
fire department was assembled,
smoking and discussing the cur
trent topics of the day, so that by
the time they got the water pals

out and responded promptly TO the
alarm OF fire, the henhouse had
been burnt to the ground and was
.nothn' but a heap OF ashes. or in
other words, a total loss with no
INSURANCE.
There, that is the kind of a fire
department we have got here in
Bingville. Feelings was pretty high
against Jason Tucker for his negli-
gence in keeping the fire depart
.ment key where he didn't know
where it was, but Jason said he
couldn't leave that key LAYING
around loose anywhere, so that
, anybuddy who wanted it might
carry It off, and that he was per
forming the duties Of chief of the
Bingville Fire Department TO the
best of his ability without paw OF
remuneration OF any kind. and
was allus ready to risk his life bv
deeds Of heroism in rescuing folks
from the hungry flames, and il
that was all the thanks he got,
Bingville might find another FIRE
chief to take his place.
Something ort to be did to make
the Bingville Fire Department
more efficient in case Of an emer-
gency. Otherwise Bingville will be
burnt to the ground one Of these
days in spite of our fire department
It would be a good plan TO leave
the door of the Town Hall base
ment, where the water pals is kept
unlocked at all hours, if it wasn't
| for one thing-people who needed
water pals would help themselves
to these water pals at all hours
That plan was tried once and the
fire department had to keep buy
| ing new pals all the time.
