FORMERLY FOR CHARITY
Change Here Has Been Apparent
in the Many Magnificent

During the last fifteen years there
has been a marked change In the at

public hospitals. until to-day the for

GLASS OF people against them has been
almost wholly overcome. So quietly
and gradually has the change come

people. who viii probably never be

at the very name Of hospital.
II was not 90 many years ago that
people Of social position shrank at the
idea Of being taken to hospital for
treatment when they were Ill or even
for the purpose OF having an opera
ton performed. II was not so much
dread for the hospital as the stigma
which attached to those who received
treatment there. The hospital was a
charitable institution. like the poor

PROSPECTS BRIGHTER
 FOR STATEHOOD BILL

A Washington special of Decem- Der 30, to the Albuquerque Jour- nal says:
 Ralph Cameron, delegate in con- gress from Arizona, and busy man in his territory's fight for state hood, made a poll of the house to ascertain what will be the fate of the statehood bill. He finds. he said today, that the committee on territories is for statehood and that there will be more than a comforta ble margin of votes for the measure on the floor of the house.
 MT. Cameron said he would make a similar poll of the senate in the near future He has been prom ised the active support of the ad- ministration for the statehood bill, and although the vote will be closer in the senate than in the house, he is confident that the measure will pass the upper as we'll as the lower house."

CHICAGO has taken the initiative step to make a campaign against charity balls which heretofore have been annual events among the the society circles of our larger cities. The newspapers of Chicago in their editorial columns are treating the question without gloves. They truthfully say that charity balls look barbarous and just as if those who were in good health and have money were making merry over the misfortunes of the poor, sick and crippled. Looking at it in the light of the Chicago papers, every humane person must admit that it looks rather heather like to have gay time over the poor unfortunates. If one wants to be charitable, and all of us should, it is more sensible to give it in some other manner and avoid the cost of all luxuries that go to make up a swell society ball in a city. One will appreciate giving to charity when it is done in true spirit and unboastfully.
Williams news., 1910-01-08

brow you are permitted to bathe in luxury must be denied a chance to be of some use to his fellow men. He's working man, a fool, keep him down. So in conclusion, we say that if any laborer dare come forward and ask for an office, kick him out and boost for MT. Big Injun. If man has $5O,O0O and can easily raise as much more; if he has glib tongue, and, no matter what his antics are after dark, or what his policy is. In fact the more dishonest the better. Put him in office, crown him with olive leaves and let him dictate to the live stock.
 'Tis but the wink of an eye,
 'tis the draught of the breath From the blossom of health
 To the paleness of death.

 To the bier and the shroud; Oh, why should the spirit

THE parents who do not con- pei their children to attend school regularly make a sad mistake, and are apt to feel sorry for it in later years. Children. although they may not feel over anxious to go, should be made to go and learn to like the school. Very frequently we hear young men and women who have left their parental homes to dig for their own living swear at their parents for not compelling them, when children and without any better sense, to attend school, to seek an education. A sensible parent will do everything to educate the children even though it would not be a too pleasant task
 but in later years when the boy or girl has learned more sense, this parent has the love and respect of the children. Parents, act wise, and send your children to school.

 All persons, whether women or men, who may desire to become census enumerators must be citi- zens of the United States; residents of the supervisors district for which they wish to be appointed; must be not less than IS nor more than 70 years of age; must be physically able to do the work; must be trust worthy, honest and of good habits; must have at least an ordinary ed ucation and must be able to write plainly and with reasonable rapid Ity. Those who can comply With these requirements are invited 10 put in their applications, as there will be at least 6S,OOO enumerators' places to be filled by the middle of March in preparation for the emu meration beginning April 18th.
 Application forms, with full in structions for filling in, and com, plete information concerning the test and method of appointment, can be secured by writing to the supervisor of census for the super visor's district in which the appli- cant lives All applications, prop erly filled in must be filed with the supervisors not later than January 25th. as any received after that date cannot be considered.
