often think the best gift of God to man is good mother-the woman whose love cannot be made cold by waywardness or by neglect. She does have many anxious moments and heartaches because her counsels are ignored and her devotion does not seem to be appreciated; and I fear some mothers die without ever reaIiz- ing how mother lives in the love and life of even wayward child. Mother is the unforgettable one, and after she has passed to her reward, how she grows in the hearts of those she loved with an undying love; and who. perhaps, seemed to be so indif- ferent at times to her. No child ever grows away from mother-she seems to grow in our hearts just as long as we live; and there she is glorified There was never anybody like mother: and that tender memory is a joy and blessing when men have become old and gray and inffrn.

RECORDER BENSON.

1t is unkind of our neighbor down
the street to accuse us of making an
attack on Recorder Mae Benson. II
was not and is not our intention to as.
sail her in the least, but to simply re.
cite a few historical facts which the
people are entitled to know.
Personally, we like Miss Benson
very much, but politically we think
she has manifested very arbitrary,
partisan spirit at times, even so much
so as to make her appear culpable un-
der the laws OF the state, and ordi.
nances of the city. For instance, on
June 2lst, Messrs Stevens, Merrill,
Peterson. Quayle and Berntson gave
an official notice which the recorder
was instructed by majority vote to
impart to all parties concerned. This
the recorder deliberately we take it
for she is no novice and evidently
plays her part quite cleverly-refused
at the time she was interviewed by a
representative of this paper, July 2S,
1911. When asked as to why she had
not done so she replied: 81 have no
statement to make"
Now we will be pardoned for sug.
costing that Recorder Benson is not
the city council. In our opinion II Is
her duty to keep correct journal of
the proceedings of the council. and to
do the bidding of the said council un.
der the laws and ordinances. And we
think she has no right, without laying
herself liable, to refuse, or neglect, to
carry out the dictates of the council.
Further, we think II sad reflection
on city, and city official when II
becomes necessary for five members
of council to be obliged to fight for
a square deal in the records
Again we simply said II looked like

Anent the paying question, Engineer
Humphreys reports that the difference
in district number twenty operating
under new specifications, as compared
with the old, is just $4,000, Quite n
little saving is it not In district mum.
Der eighteen the difference amounts
to nearly $4,000, another neat little
sum. These are some nuts for Game

ments; to assist the city authorities
in enforcing its laws in improving the
city; to encourage the betterment of
the health morals of this city; to
beautify its homes and streets and to
promote its general welfare and to
increase the civic pride of its people"
At the last meeting of the club a
communication from Mr.. b. f, Ritter
was received and read, wherein 1t
was suggested that the club take up
the matter of putting a city ticket
in the field in the coming election.
The matter was heartily supported by
Mr.. Joseph r. Carbon, who thought
the suggestion very timely and per-
tinent to the interests of the city. He
therefore moved that the President ap-
point a committee of three to inyesti-
gate the matter in its phases and re-
port back to the club.
Pending the report of the committee
we desire to simply say that 1t ap-
pears to us as though the communica-
ton was perfectly in order under the
stipulations of the articles of ncor.

club was also in harmony with its
charter. The report of the commit
