William K Vanderbilt. jr., was told
by marine to gather with the mob
behind distant clothesline. Mr.. Van

the official launching stand, but that was
something that it was no use for Mr..
Vanderbilt to tell to the marines. He
didn't have the special ticket required
for admittance t. that stand, but was
willing to waive that. and started up the
steps. The man behind the buttons who

JUST A SQUAW MAN.

It is a sad commentary on the
Intelligence of men TO hear them,
along about election time, invelgh
against the officials and enlarge
upon the necessity of electing cap
able men to office, and then when
asked to vote be met with the start
ling announcement that they fOr-
got TO pay their poll taxes" The
parish is full of Just such charac-
tiers, and they deserve the severest
condemnation. If they have no
more interest in public affairs than
to neglect such an important mat
ter, they merit the worst kind OF
officials that could be elected to
represent them. Either pay a poll
tax and do all possible to elect the
very best men it is possible to in
duce to run for Office, or keep that
''bazoo" closed. Do not be a par
rot. Vote intelligently, having paid
q poll tax, or forever remain quiet.
The law is plain: Unless you pay
q poll tax on or before December
81, 1910, YOU CANNOT VOTE IN
ANY ELECTION HELD IN 1911
OR 1911.
If you neglect this matter you
will have disfranchiscd yourself
You will become a plain Squaw

Mr.. Russell A. Richardson of 81
Louis, and his brother, Capt. Rich
ardson of Natchez, were visitors to
St. Joseph this week. Both of these
gentlemen were residents of Tensas
for a number of years and have
many friends among our people,
who are always delighted to see
them. Mr.. Russell Richardson has
been a citizen of st. Louis for some
years and has become very promineny
in the business life of that city. The
following very complimentary notice
Of Mr.. Richardson is taken from ?
recent number of "The Dawn of
Great City," a publication devoted
to the industrial growth of East st.
Louis:
When we write of the marvellous
growth which East ST. Louis has
experienced during the past few
years, we cannot fail TO pay trib-
ute to the men who were instru-
mental in brin3iD~ a g the pros
porous condition c. Caf city. In this
connection we refer TO Mr.. Richard
son as one of our leading real estate
men and financiers; a gentleman
who has perhaps lent more substan-
tial aid toward the commercial and
industrial development of our city
than any other man. AS n real estate
owner as well as TAX payer his name
is found well at the top Of the lis,.
Mr.. Richardson has ected SO resi-
dences within the past year and he
has built more business houses, prin-
cipally modern Office buildings, than
any other firm or individual, hav-
ing employed special force of build
ers steadily during the past seven
years. Among The large Office build
ings which he owns are the Rich
ardson Building, Josephine Build
ing, Russell Block and Lucy Block,
which latter building is the largest
in East St. Louis. Mr.. Richardson
handles only real estate owned by
himself, and he makes speciality
of creating new high class residence
subdivisions. He is the sole owner
Of the following subdivisions: Oak
Grove Heights, Richardson's first
second subdivision to East St.
his and Richardson's Washing
Dbn Park subdivision. The two sub
Z divisions of Oak Grove Heights
proved to be the best selling prop
erty on the market. He is also one
OF the largest stockholders in Holly
wood Heights. In financial as well
rs in social circles Mr.. Richardson
is held in high esteem and our cit
liens are proud of the splendid rec
ord he made in Fastening the adj
vancement of our city's interests.

Tho laxative Barber.

The talkativeness of BARRIERS long
has been the subject for puns and
jokes said barber. Il had always
fancied the matter one of recent origin
until the other day. You know in my
profession we have great deal of
spare time. Well. the other day | was
sitting on the bench waiting for the
shaves and hair cuts to come in and
to while away the time was glancing
through copy Of Plutarch's 'Arehe-
laus.' Imagine my CONSERVATION when
l happened on line reading:

how he would be trimmed He an
swered, I'm silence."'
We'll, that got me. l never knew
they even had BARRIERS that long ago.
/ always supposed the ancients let
their whiskers grow and that they
wore curly locks as long as their to-
gas. but it seems that the barber is
an ancient relic and that his talking

Suing the Insurance Company

An echo of the fire which consumed
the Riverside Bar in Old Town last Jam
uary is the following published in the
Inland Herald, of Spokane
O. A. Olmstead beat the fire demon
three days when he took out insurance
to the amount of $4,000 on his building
at Newport, Idaho, but he.has yet to
win his battle with the New Zealand
Insurance Co. and collect his insurance.
The suit to recover the $4,000 has been
brought in the Superior Court by Thos.
Hye. to whom the claim has been as
signed. 1t is alleged that Oimstead took
out the insurance Jan. II and gave his
note for $40 to pay the premium for one
year. The building was burned to the
ground JAM. IA.
The insurance company has refused to
pay the claim and has refused the ten
der of the $40 since the fire. Hye seeks
1880 from the company, deducting the
$40 premium, which was due and I'M
paid.

The Sunny Side Of Superstition.

TO 0uIny 0iOC OF ouH0TSItIlCns
That there is anything genial. cheer
ing or therapeutically valuable about
superstition may seem tall state
ment. The adjective generally associ-
ated with it is dark" On the con-
trary, there is something very bright
ening about a four leaf clover. Who
is not little more Of an optimist for
picking up horseshoe? What lone

winter afternoon, with unwelcome lei
sure on her hands. but feels little
quickening Of the pulse as she drops
her scissors and beholds them sticking
up In the carpet or discovers that she
has laid an extra place at the table?
Company signs are the commonest and
welcomed Of all superstitions. The
scissors, the needle, the dishcloth, the
fork, the Saturday sneeze, all inculcate
hospitality and reward it by an unex-
pected visitor. If the needle slants as
it stands up in the crack of the floor
it foretells gentleman. Run, young

A hard headed business man went to

man Is not musician. He spends his
days trying to buy cotton when it is

is how he described his experience at
the piano recital.

A Sad Accident

Newport friends of F. Y. Low, con-
sulting engineer of the Northern Idaho
& Montana Power Co., who has had
charge of their Improvements at this
point, we're grieved to read the follow
ing article in Fridays Spokesman Re-
view
Kalispell, Mont. June 16.-Plunging
over an unguarded ferryboat approach
on the Flathead river this afternoon the
automobile of F. Y. Low, engineer OF
the Northern Idaho & Montana Power
Co., containing Mr.. Low, his wife and
son and Mamie Dillon, 6-year-old
child, sank in 40 feet of water and
drowned the boy. The other occupants
were rescued.
Mr.. Low, who was driving the car,
put on extra speed to surmount slihgt
raise just at the ferry approach, and for
some unknown reason did not again get
control. The top of the automobile was
up and acted as float, allowing the car
to settle slowly. All went to the bottom,
but Low and his wife rose at once and
he supported her until both were fished
out with pole.
The girl came up soon after and was
quickly revived. The boys body did not
rise for some minutes, and, although
physicians were called from Kalispell
and Bigfork and his parents did their
utmost, he could not be revived.

Agricultural and Development Items

J. n. Gerard, who owns a ranch on
the river at Davis creek, has field of
winter wheat that is something of O
curiosity. The field was plowed and
sown with mixture of oats and wheat
in the spring of 1909. The wheat proved
to be winter wheat. 80 that, though a
crop of oat hay was harvested on the
ground last summer. the same ground is
bringing crop of wheat this year that
promises Is to 20 bushels per acre with
out further cultivation or other expense
than was bestowed in the spring of 1909.
Mr.. Gerard is building a summer home,
clearing land and otherwise improving
his place.
W. J. Windus, who lately bought the
Fred Kent ranch, is preparing to put in
a new drain and otherwise improve
about 100 acres of valuable hay land at
the source of Kent creek. The drain
will be in deep cut 100 feet long, and
1t is hoped to lower the water level in
the meadow, so that the production of a
high grade quality of hay will be prac-
ticable all over the ranch. Albert Lund
will have charge of the work.
Nearly every settler from Newport to
Usk is clearing land. and the smoke of
bonfres, mingled with the surface soil
from the Big Bend country gives tang
to the summer air that is as invigorating
as chestnut burr to mule.
