LOCAL MAN IS
GENERAL AGENT
Idaho National Harvester Co,
Favors Grangeville In
New Appointment.

The appointment of M. G. Pred
dy of this place as General Agent

company, with headquarters here
is meeting with general approba-
tiOn and Mack is being congratu-
lated on his good fortune by all

ment is announced as effective

made public until now because of
a serious illness from which Mr..
Freddy is just recovering.
The Little Wonder as the
Idaho National Harvester is pop
ularly known, has met with such
1unbounded success that the man
ufacturers have not been able so
far to supply the demand for
them and the creating of the Gen
eral Agency at this time is solely
with view to perfecting per-
manent organization to care for
a. business that is constantly in
creasing. Grangeville is favored
in having the office located here.
/ Mr.. Freddy recently visited
the company's s modern factory at
Moscow and it was while there
that the arrangement was made
by which he is to represent them.
To a Globe reporter he gave an
interesting account Of the splen-
did equipment installed by tie
company, and relative to his ap-
pointment said

Five claret bottles are on exhibition

chemical process and then slipped
through the narrow neck of the bottle
and were boiled after they had resum-

by means of queer TOOLS in the hands
of skilled mechanics, manipulated

THE MEXICAN SITUATION.

The Mexican situation is being mad,
plain and so is the purpose of the mo-
bilization of part of the United States
army on the Texas border With these
troops held in readiness for action are
two naval divisions located at strategic
points
1t would seem that the Revolutionists
who have been warning on President
Diaz have the full sympathy Of the peo-
pie who are striving for their liberty
It would appear. regardless OF their
boasting, that the Diaz dynasty is weak
and crumbling of its own weight.
In Mexico there are thousands OF
Americans whose lives and interests
must be protected
If Biaz can not give the surety of pro-
tection to the Americans and other for
eigners and if the Revolutionists are
poweTless to maintain order and enforce
the law, the United States will intervene
when at a moments notice this army of
the United States will cross into Mex
leo.
With such Intervention there will fol

when the Mexicans viii be permitted to
establish their government as a repub-

credited representatives will govern and
not be ruled by dynasty Of which Diaz

reached by the belligerents on negotia-
tons for peace now pending

The Commoner This is the time Of
year when the housewife insists on do
ing weeks work in one day without
counting the cost to herself. because
there is 50 much to do. A woman is
worth more than the work, and she will
find that she is held at Just the valua-
ton she put supon herself, Let the work

break down under the burden. Let the

Art and a Riddle.

Precisely when d painter or mUS'-
clan or sculptor is an American Is Il
conundrum. There's John Sargent, Tor
example, who is so proudly claimed by
us as a true blue Yankee, possibly De
cause he was born in Florence and
studied in Paris. His art is French
his brush work is Gallo, his way OF
envisaging character is wholly 1ndl-
yidual. but since Whistler's death he
is referred to as the greatest living
American painter What is really
American about his work? Was
Whistler any more than Poe Amefl-
can? Is Victor Herbert's music Amerl-
can? We mean his serious, not his light
efforts. Herbert is Irish; he studied
his art in Germany, and in spirit he
is more patriotic than score OF Al"
bany politicians. Sir Benjamin West
painted very British pictures, and IL
was a Quaker, haiIing from Pills
delphia. Gilbert Stuart. born in Eng
land, was more American. He lived
here, and his portraits fairly breathe
the national type. The two greatest
living engravers on wood, Timothy
Cole and Henry Wolf. are English and
Alsatian respectively, yet we claim
both, and rightly. as American artists.
What. then, is an American artist

DYNAMITE BOMB
Fired at the State University at Baton

Baton Rouge, March ga heavily
charged dynamite bomb was fired at the
State University during Wednesday
night, causing no damage but shaking
that portion of the city adjacent to the
institution. The outbreak Of conagra-
ton Monday. night, the dynamiting of
the fagpoIe on Tuesday night, and the
explosion of the bomb Wednesday night
has caused the disciplinary authorities
to be on the alert for any further de-
monstrations Students residing in the
barracks have been refused permission
to leave the grounds, and close watch
is being kept by the military authorities
of the university to prevent a recur-
renee of the demonstrations. Severe
measures are being taken to apprehend
the culprits and to secure evidence
against them if caught.

The Postm ans Knock.

The minute wasted by each postman
waiting for some one to open the door
counts up in the course of his rounds
and may amount of an hour or more
every day. In town employing eight
or ten carriers it costs the postofFice
an extra days work. In large cities
the loss may run into hundreds of dol
lars. The postmaster general esti-
mates the yearly loss over the whole
country as a result of this little delay
multiplied millions of times as more
than $1.o00,00o. A reform is hoped
for in the proposal to restrict city de-
liveries at residences to those who fur
nish proper receptacles at their doors.

Oldest Civic RenaIia.

The crystal mace with which the
lord mayor of London has just claimed
the right to be present at the corona
ton will be by far the most ancient
piece of regalia in evidence at that
historic ceremony. 1t dates from Sax
on times, as the workmanship of its
crystal and gold shaft with jeweled
head declares, From the time before
the Normans this mace. which is bare
ly eighteen inches long, has symbol
lied sovereignty over the city, when
the lord mayor was still known as the
portreeVe and London was an indie
pendent state. 1t is the oldest piece of
civic regalia in the world. and it is
seen only at the induction of the lord
mayor on Nov. s and at the coronation
of the sovereign.-Pa Mall Gazette.

| In the feudal system of the present
| day Orville Stannard occupies the posi-
ton of a knight skilled in battle, a
| hard fighting man valued as an adj
| herent, but lacking important estates
| of his own, and compelled to draw his
sword under the banner of the baron
with whom he can make the best
terms, AS an individual he is not yet

| corporation he cuts a considerable fig
ure
There was poor girl named Doro-
| thy Trent who worked in a bank. She
had been well educated, latterly in a
| college where most of the girls were
familiar with luxuries and talked of
| them necessarily. 1t might be possible
| to talk the earth out of its orbit if all
the people would unite upon the proper
theme. Certainly the moral law, which
is more important matter, has been
put out of its due course by too much
talking about things that crafty the
| senses. For instance, when Dorothy
left college she received an offer of
employment from man who had a
small business in the inconsiderable
city where the girl had been reared.
This man would have offered marriage,
except that Dorothy's conversation
made him feel too poor.
And Dorothy mistook her ownS dis
torted view of life for an honorable
ambition. When she declined the
mans offer and accepted a position in
the bank in New York she fancfed that
she was moved by desire to do more
for her mother and secure better ad
vantages for her sister In reality she
was merely attracted by the big city
as a center of luxury.

with its affairs. His name on the df-
rectorate signified the interests that
were behind him. He was rarely seen
in its precincts. One day, however, he
came after hours and had talk with
the president
A little later Dorothy was summon
ed into the presidents room, where
Stannard dictated long document.
The girls work was well and speed

tional ability. He insisted upon extra
payment and gave Dorothy exactly
the amount of her weeks salary.
Dorothy fancied that this extra mon

already begun to ''extend her credit

Naturally she hoped that stannard
would call again soon. He did, and
moreover, he made a special call upon
