READING MATTER FOR SETTLERS
GREE


There are many families on new
farms within a days drive of Black
foot who have scanty supply of
reading matter, and many people in
and about Blackfoot who have stacks
of magazines they have read and do
not know what to do with.
We asked few friends to bring in
reading matter to send out to settlers
and what we received was surprise.
The Cosmopolitan, The American, The
Argosy, McClures, Golfers, The Post,
The Womens Home Companion, The
Ladies Home Journal, Women s
World, The Delineator, The World $
Work, The World Today, Scribner's,
Everybody's, 1Ainslyes, The Pacific
Monthly, Sunset, Hampton's, Leslies's
Weekly, Truth, Sacred Heart, Mt.
Angel Magazine.
Most of them are In good condition
and clean. Those that were soiled
can be put through the trimmer at
the printing Office and have the soiled
edges taken off, leaving them in good
condition.
We are arranging to have conven-
lent places for distribution out on the
new tracts, and magazines left at
this Office will be forwarded to the
distributors.

posed to a contagious disease. 30tf

BE not misled by circulation claims,
but put your trust in the vigorous
character of the publication that has
a policy and stands for something
not your policy, perhaps, but neverthe

ty and good government
THE DARK AND BRIGHT SIDE
When we read of the rasealities of
the large insurance companies Of the
~unspeakable frauds of the sugar trust,
Of the political corruption in Illinois
and some other states, ant the APP
parent unwillingness that was mani
tested by membres of the senate to
investigate. much less rebuke, eorrup-
ton like this, especially when it af-
fects one Of their own number; when
we read of farmers of Il county in
Ohio by hundreds confessing that for
years they have been selling their
votes for cash. when we read of these
and numerous other things which we
need not mention, but which will oc-
cur to the reader, we are sometimes
disposed to look upon government by
the people as a failure.
There is however another and a
brighter side. It is no little thing AN
gives no small ground for hope. when
we see papers and magazines cour-
|ageously exposing these ~rascalities
and infamies. Nor is it a less ground
for hope when we see prison doors
closing behind these offenders; when
we see men in high places, closely af-
filiated with big business retired
To private life and to oblivion; when
we see men who are most active in
standing for the people honored as
few men have ever been honored be-
fore; when We see the people defeat
ANONYMOUSLY men who have been tn
leaders in their party fer years, the
support of which has for forty years
10y
been a religion, when we see these
things we can take courage, realizing
that at bottom the American people
are honest; that while there may be
twigs and large limbs of the tree de
caying and therefore dropped, none
the less the heart is sound.
There is more encouragement now
than ever for good men to stand by
the men who do right, who are doing
il the United States what the old
prophets did in Israel, who are receiv
ing reward in stones while living and
over whose graves we will shed tears
and erect costly monuments. There

Republican members of Congress d
not favor an extra session. They
insist that the present short session
will be adequate for the passing of
all needed legislation at this time.
As for the purely controversial bills
now up for consideration, the country
will not suffer seriously If they re-
main on the docket for another term.
Retrenchment is the watChword, and
there is no place where our legisla-
tors can show their sincerity in this
matter to SO good effect. as by cuttin.

for the people Of Falls City, The
happiest results can only be achieved

possibility Of a north and south side.
