zeal and enthusiasm. He has outlined
a broader association policy and ey'
poets the Y. M. C. A. to accomplish
great results among the students dur''
ing the year. The membeship COM
mittee, headed by r. A. Kern, one OF
the football stars, has been active
since the opening of school, and
large number of freshmen have been
added to the roll, in addition to the
old members. The important work OF
organizing the Bible study groups is
under way, and mission study classes
Will soon be organized.
The cornerstone of the new 100000
Y. M. c. A. building at the college
was laid last spring, and the base
ment floor OF the structure has been
partially completed, but nothing has
been done toward finishing the work
for several weeks on account of a
lack of funds. Money enough to COM
plete the second story is now in the
hands of Treasurer e. B. Cushing Of
Houston, and the contractors will boz
gin work again as soon as material
can \be assembled. The building,
which is being erected by popular
subscription, will be one of the most
attractive structures on the campus,
both in design and finish.

JUST AS 1T SHOULD BE.

Congressman Bob Henry of the
Waco district is boasting that his
campaign expenses in both the pri-
mary last summer and since that
time, have not cost him cent. If
that is true, then Bob is a piker, for
somebody had to meet the expenses
of printing his name on the tickets,
at least, if no more. This boosted
economy is no doubt a great satisfac-
ton to Bob, but how about the poor
printer who had to pay the freight

In the eternal fitness of things The
Eagle thinks Congressman Henry's
expense account is just what it should
be. 1t is in perfect harmony with the
service he has rendered his country.

nave an interesting history not gen.
orally known to the public.
Pocatello has had one paper. the
Tribune, that has stood the storms of
years and has been Republican in mol
ltics. People of other political par
ties have always wanted newspaper
and have had it part of the time. Tn
the early nineties they had the Peo-
PIES party paper, which operated
through the campaign in which Cleve-
land was elected, and it was one of
the many institutions that failed in
the panic following his election.
since that time it has been operated
and closed by the sheriff alternately
many times, flying various political
banners, and always failing or yield
ing up profits that were promptly car
rled away from town by the smooth
manipulation of the newspaper treas
ury. The newspaper effort was
known under the various names of
Pocatello Advance, the Gate CITY
news, Pocatello Herald, and was new
sr known to be out of debt.
The last plant to be used in the
work was brought from Mountain
lone, where it is said Editor Hon.
