Upon the other hand, the more
slowly put constantly increasing CIR
culation OF the conservatively as-
gressive honestly conducted newspap-
er, is the most satisfactory from
every standpoint.
CHANGING through the exchanges
received in the office OF one OF New
York's newspaper syndicates it was
observed that great number OF dali
les are spending money for circula-
ton, the schemes including premiums
voting contests and various other ex-
pensive plans of getting new read
ers.
Five of these papers We're selected
at random and analyzed. Letters OF
inquiry to their publishers ELECTED
the information that the circulation
gains were not permanent. During the
'whooping-up' process big increases
were easily made at the cost Of an
automobile, much real money and an
infinite amount of labor. but just as
soon as the stimulus was removed
there was a painful drop. None of
these publishers could understand
why his paper did not stick, but the
analysis referred to revealed why he
failed to see.
There was nothing in any paper to
make it stick. 1t is mistaken idea
to suppose that a few columns OF
news, a number of perfunctory edi-
torials and poor assortment of mis-
cellany makes a newspaper in these
strenuous days when journalistic
functions must embrace the dissem-
nation of information, counsel and
education.
Newspaper publishers must real
lie the full requirements of their mis-
sion. They must be in position to
know a good newspaper when they
see one and save their circulation lex
pansion money until they have a
paper that will stick. sss@
This lack of insight is not con-
fined to smaller city newspapers.
Many of the big ones are near-sighted
or have no sight at all" yfe. "a !.

CHAMPION BEET TOPPERs

Mrs. Eellen Kenner and her five
boys all under thirteen years of age,
have to make their own living, and
the way they have of doing it is very
much like making an honest effort.
One thing they do in season is pull
ing and topping sugar beets, and
they are now doing this work at the
rate of from twentny to twenty five
tons day. One day they handled
twenty seven tons.

along that line, has not been salts

In regard to the opposition paper,
Trux is fighting his own. shadow, 40
we have never criticised him for
starting opposition papers anywhere
except when he did 1t in betrayal
of the interests of the man or men
for whom he was working and from
whom he was drawing pay. Nobody
has ever done that in our case, al
though Talbot attempted it in Black
foot while he was on our payroll and
it was here that we learned his dis
position to double cross people. When
he finally helped to start a paper here
under perfectly honorable conditions
we gave the enterprise a nice write
up, loaned them all kinds of things
they needed that had been overlook
ed in ordering the outfit or that had
miscarried in shipping, and never
made kick.

and we heartily endorse what he says
about the need of law to restrict
newspapers to honesty of utterance:
The creditors of some of his former
newspaper ventures in Idaho would
also like to see law enacted that
would give them relief which they
are now unable to secure. 1t is be-
cause this writer has the courage to
speak against tramp editors and
"itinerant newspapers" that are here
today and there tomorrow, just
changing location and name and
continuing their old game, that we
are branded as skunk and a vicious
liar by the fellows it goes home to.

a severe penalty of newsper editors
81, ~ ~ In 40 x,ioso,1, 1tnc

a severe penalty of newsper editors
who circulate vicious lies.
While there are many examples to
be cited In support of the passing of
such legislative measure, probably
the most vicious, thoroughly unprin-
cipled, yillainous and cowardly ex-
ample is in the person of Byrd Trego,
editor OF the Blackfoot bingham
county, Republican.
We worked for him at one time
and we're foolish enough to waste our
pity on, what We then thought, his
Weaknesses .ss EN-.
"Trego is SC. thoroughly depraved
that we doubt II his real friends,
aside from relatives, possibly, NUM-
Der a half dozen.
AT present he is RECALLING his
readers (much to his financial detri-
ment) with DEVILS connections re-
garding the editor of this paper. and
his only reason for classifying is in the
fact that we put an opposition paper
in his town some three years ago and
placed man in charge who has
made success OF it, somewhat to
Trego's financial detriment. For thus
exercising our right as an American
citizen, he is using his every effort
in connecting and publishing con-
temptible lies with which to injure
us, If possible.
IF we were as thoroughly despis-
ed by our fellow man as is this Tre-
so, we would take Rough on Rats"
for the good of the rest of humanity.
From the falling off in his adj
vertising patronage we are led to be-
lieve that our host of friends in the
Grove City are manifesting their dis
approval of his course of action.
"But, to return, it is just such
skunks as Trego that make the path
way of honest journalists anything
but flower strewn roads OF peace, and,
as large majority Of the people Of
this and all other states must, per-
force, depend almost entirely upon
their little home papers for their
knowledge Of the outside world-of
men and measures laws should be
enacted forcing honesty of utterance
upon the press.

GREAT CANADIAN GLACIER.

Formation of Ice Archway an Annual
Phenomenon.
Eight thousand and four feet of ice
high is the Yoho glacier of Canada.
Since the first discovery of this larg-
est OF Canada's glaciers it has main
tanned a grand archway of ice at its
lower extremity. The span of thi.
arch is no less than 250 feet, and it's
height is estimated at 70 feet, while
from beneath the arch the drainage
escapes.
The formation of the arch seems to
be an annual phenomenon. Toward
the close of the summer it becomes
weakened by melting, and the whole
structure collapses The ice gradual
ly is broken up and finally removed,
and the formation of new archway
is commenced
From the archway issues the Yoho
river. 1t is calculated that an ava
lanche must have occurred in 1850 or
1860. Since then the retreat of the
glacier has been at the se rate
of five or six feet year. From Au-
gust, 1901, to August, 1904, it was
found that the retreat had been III
feet, or 81 feet a year. Between Au-
gust, 1894, and August, 1905, the gla-
cier receded but nine feet, and is now
thought to be checked.
About the nose of the glacier there
is evidence of bodily disruption of
the rock strata, to which the term
"plucking'' is applied. Rock layers
are ripped off where the layers are
thin bedded and pointed, and the frag-
ments are pressed into the ice to as
sist in further work.
The Yoho glacier is an almost if not
entirely isolated example of a glacier
IS great engine of erosion. Other
glaciers move forward and are engines
Of transportation. ~
