1t was SO steep that the wagons had
to be pulled up and let down by
rope. The stumps were worn away
until a deep groove had been cut in
them by the constant slipping of the
ropes. 1t was suggested some time
ago that these stumps be saved and
placed in the Carnegie library in
kalispell, in the historical museum

the Burne brothers they are now

Many OF the towns, especially in
the new country, have an equally
bleak appearance They are very often
without any trees. The impression
thus made on the minds of home
seekers or would-be investors is
practically harmful, for it at once
conveys the impression to their
minds that trees cannot be grown.
The conclusion thus reached is not
unnatural.
This can and should be corrected.
The farmer may grow trees to pro-
tect his home, and the inhabitants

1t is advisable to prepare the land

Is done by breaking the ground up
deeply in the spring or summer and

in the retention of moisture. The

Why the Dollar Counts

In this campaign the issues lie between the forces of
Representative Government and Popular Government.
In Representative Government only part of the people
have influence those with political faith, who spend
fortunes in any direction where their own ends fur
thered for money.
In Popular Government all the people have influence
because their executives and legislators do dare
thwart the expressed will Of the people.
Representative Government ever, this year being
supported by the money OF the Interests ltis being spent
avshly to give the wrong impression of Wilson
Popular Government, this year to win, must depend the
truth being told abou Wilson We publish his record
and platform broadcast that no controvert it.

MEANING OF PHILOSOPHY.

Philosophy is, as somebody has
said, merely more than usually de
termined effort to think clearly. HUI.
man nature seems to have been en-
dowed with a restless curiosity about
the great problems Of existence. Most
of us do more or less desultory think
ing about them, and to that extent
are philosophers. The ancient Greeks
were the first to consider the prob
lens serious and they brought to bear
on them the keenest sort OF intent
gence. Since their time other keen
minds in all ages have been concerned
with them. When we get new idea,
for instance, we often feel as II we
had known 1t all the time, only 1t
had never come to the surface before
in our minds and been recognized be-
fore. Does this mean that somehow
all fragments of It come to conscious
ness? We describe a certain table as
smooth. But looked at through
microscope it seems rough. A still
more powerful glass might radically
change its appearance. Which is the
real table? What is behind tho data
that our senses give us? We wonder
where we come from and what the
real meaning of life is. These and
similar problems come up at times in
the minds of most persons, whether
students of philosophy or not, says
the Kansas City Star. A considera-
ton of such questions certainly tends
to widen the horizon, and to give a
possible background to existence.

For years past the sugar growers

NO WORD OF ERUPTION
Officials Here Discredit Re-
port of Catastrophe
in Panama.

No word was received at either the
State or the War departments today re-
garding the reported volcanic eruption
near Bocas del Toro, in Panama. The
report from Mobile la, is discredited
by the officials here for the reason that
such an occurrence happening so long
ago as April would naturally have been
reported by the officials of the Panama
canal or by the consular officers of the
isthmus. Telegraphic communication was
received at the Washington Office of the
Panama canal yesterday giving details
of the progress OF the work on the canal.
No word was said. however, Of an erup-
ton or other casualty.
The report from Mobile declared thou
sands OF persons had been killed and
whole Indian villages swept away by an
eruption of Chiriqui Peak. near Bocas
del Toro. in Panama, according to the
story of Capt. Olsvik Of the United States
fruit steamer Fort Morgan. which ar
rived at Mobile yesterday. rs
Capt Olsvik of the Fort Morgan, in
describing the scene, says that 1t was
the most terrifying imaginable. The sea
was torn UP and islands were thrown up
where once there had been deep water.
1t is reported that the shock OF the
Panama canal. and men on the Fort
Morgan say that the water in the cut.
according to reports reaching Bocas has
risen two feet within the past few days.
This is. attributed, they say. to the vol
canic action.
