The many friends of Hon. Bur-
ton l.. French will be pleased to
learn that he has so far recovered
from the surgical operation which
he recently underwent at Port
land as to be able to assume his
official duties and will leave for
the national capital this week.
He is still anything but rugged
in health and will be acc0mpani-
ed on the journey by his physici-
an DIR. Coffy and Mrs. French.
Before leaving for Washington
Mr.. French was rendered mag
nificent reception by his host of
admiring friends in Moscow, par
ty lines being entirely obliterated
in the homage paid him. The
gathering was held in the newly
completed federal building in the
university town, the construction
of which is due to Mr.. French s
untiring efforts in the interest of
his home town, and the tribute
paid him is well earned and most
worthily bestowed.

Last Saturday the home of Mr..

at Grangeville, and his brother
Virgil, was staying a their home.
He built fire and went to bed

and jumped from an upstairs
window, just as the floor fell in,
making a narrow escape for his
life.-Kamiah Progress.

taking examination. He says
they will have a good Christmas
entertainment at the Winona
school this season; the intention
being to put on a play among
other things.
Mrs. j. A. Hanson, recently
fell and fractured bone in her

UNCOMFORTABLE SPIRIT
OF LOYALTY

1t requires spirit if civic
pride and unfailing and un-
quenchable state loyalty to devel-
OPP and maintain a country as it
should be, and no where within
the limits Of this great and glor-
ious nation of ours is this com
nendable spirit more strongly de-
yeloped or more clearly and con-
stantly manifested than in Kan
sas, the Sunflower State. Bleed
ing Kansas. Drought Stricken
Kansas 'Grasshoppered Kan
sas, "CycIone Swept Kansas, y
as derisively called by it's enem-
les and defamers for years. But
Notwithstanding the many vicis-
STUDIES through which it has pass
ed Kansas stands today one of
the best, the cleanest, the most
prosperous of all the fair states,
an example of morality and de-
cency that the other states of
the nation might well follow, and
this condition has been brought
about largely through loyalty in
season and out of the newspaper
boys first, and the rest of the cit
liens next. As an illustration in
point:
Kansas this year suffered first
from drought, which materially
shortened the crop yield; then
floods followed which swept away
in some sections both homes and
crops then the army worm raid
ed the state, and chewed up many
fields of grain, ard the last re-
port is to the effect that the hogs
are dying the state over by the
hundreds, from disease close
akin to the old fashioned cholera,
and against which all remedies
lave proven Intellectual. Still,
in the face of all these reverses,
there is no pssimistic bowling on
ane Lart of the editors, and pap
rrs received from there have their
accustomed hopeful and buoyant
tone and still stand up for
Kansas. I One paper tells Of a
citizen who went east and on his
trip literally distributed cards
Containing the following unique
expression of loyalty:
Betcher SWEET Life I'm From
Kansas. Am back east on visit
tnIy. and wouldn't be caught
dead here. Look on any map of
the u. S. and you III find Kansas
is the Bulls Eye. Santa Fe
route, greatest r. r. on earth,
| as its headquarters in Kansas.
Kansas didn't do thing in 1895
but raise 339, 432, 746 bushels of
corn and not nubbin in the lot.
Politicians thick as Spaniards in
Hades. Statesmen as scarce as
Dagoes in Heaven. She has the
largest city in the world without
a saloon, but for drug stores
SAY! You fellows make me
weary talking about cranks, cy-
cones and prohibition. Come ou1
and see for yourself that you are
liar. Kansas people are moi
compelled to live on timothy and
tUrnips in the summer and corr
bread and persimmons in thu
winter. Increase your Sigh
chance for heaven by living il
God IS country while before 20,
climb or fall down the COLDER
stairs.
Idaho needs to get more of tn,
Kansas spirit, and cut out defam
ing the state for political ends.
