First Aid

Speaking Of the necessity for wide
spread education in first aid to the
injured. the st. Louis Times says:
perhaps it will not be taken amiss
If we call attention to the obvious fact
that nine-tenths of all the trouble in
the world is due to ignorance of GER
tain simple things. 1t might even be
said safely that all mishaps Of what
ever fundamental, physical and spirit
ual-are due to a want Of experience
and training. Accidents of a thou
sand varieties, from drowning to the
taking Of dose from the wrong bot
tie, are in a majority Of cases fatal
simply because there was not present
some one who knew what to do. In
juries which almost tear the body to
pieces are durable If the man of train
ing and experience Is at hand. The
simplest injuries often prove fatal
when they are not properly attended
to, when the injured person does not
get the benefit Of little simple help"

Getting Near to Nature.

It was not always perfectly clear at
first thought just what Ben Gallon
meant when he spoke. The best a
hearer could do was to guess at the
most obvious meaning and let it go at
that. In the matter Of captive moose,
which belonged to Ben, the doctor fol
lowed this course. The moose was
undoubtedly sick, and a veterinary had
been summoned to attend him. Ben
went out to the pen to assist the doc
tor.
els he mortal, door asked Ben with
extreme concern.
''Are you asking If he is sick?' haz-
arded the doctor.
"Sure," replied Ben, "only l meant
is he goin' to die from 1t?"
tits too soon to tell you yet" re-
piled the doctor, 'but he has pneumo-
MIA pretty badly"
Ben's eyes grew round with surprise.
Pneumonia In his experience had been
confined to humankind {.

moose have features like grown per-

In addressing the union meeting Sun
day evening in celebration of the first
year of county prohibition in Bonner,
Rev. Warner used some figures which
need correction. In endeavoring to
show that Standpoint had grown in pop
ulation since it was dry, Rev. Warner
stated that the government census gave
Standpoint population of 1898, and that
Mr.. Edgerton in securing data for his
directory took census of the city and
found the population to be 1886. This
statement was made misleading mas
much as Rev. Warner left the impress
sion that Standpoint has grown in popu-
lation by SO in the past year. The CEN
sus of the government was confined to
the boundaries of the city. Mr.. Edger-
toms census embraced Mill town and
other outlying territory which was not
embraced in the government census.
AS matter of fact Standpoint has de-.
creased In population at least 900 in the
years time, as the figures of the govern.
ment census and the Edgerton census
indicate.
In taking the census Mr.. Edgerton
counted the vacant houses in the terri
tory in which he took the census and
found them to be 1913, all of these houses
having been used at one time or another
inSandpoint's history as dwelling houses.
At the same time Spokane, which is
wet territory, has not an apartment
house which is entirely occupied, and it
is estimated that it has enough vacant
houses to house population of 10000
people.
So much for the controversy as to
populations urged by advocates of both
dry and wet causes. Neither side, as the
Review means to contend, can "call"
the other. and the conditions are not
made by territory being wet or dry.
So far as business conditions are con-
cerned Spokane, which has always been
wet. has deprecated. and Standpoint has
slumped under dry administration
Which proves nothing for either conten-
ton. for the comparison shows the fulfil
ity of proving either side by pointing to
Spokane or Standpoint as evidence

Today the need for better
wagon roads is greater than at
any previous time in history.
The belief has been proved faila-
cious that as railroad mileage
increased the need for good
country roads would diminish.
The fact has been established
that the greater the railroad
mileage the greater the move
ment of freight on the common
roads that act as feeders to the
railroads. 1t has been shown
that over bad roads in the
United States a team on the
worst hauling season is able to
transport on an average only
about 800 or 600 pounds, while
in France every good draft horse
Is expected to be able to draw
1896 pounds a distance of eight
cen miles any day in the year.
