This is a day when friends are
Diego. Families have drifted to the
four winds Of heaven. Unless one
takes pains to keep up the old init
macies, which are always closer than
the new, the best friendships Of our
life are falling into decay.
There ought to be more pot luck
in our do&ngs and comings. The host
should entertain more after the old
easy going fashion, making not the
least change in the ordinary routine,
SO that friends might know they
could drop in any time. Friendship
is better than household scrumpti-

little stretch of the imagination
and one could imagine themselves on
an Atlantic liner by standing on the
bridge and looking down at the water
as it foams around the central pier.
The water at that place has the ap-
pearance of what is known as, the
bone in her teeth" or the bow wave
of fast moving vessel On the south
side Of the bridge one gets a good in
preston of how the water looks as
it comes from under the boat and is
beaten into a turmoil by the propeL
lors of the ship. All that is. need
ed is the rolling and pitching motion
to the bridge and We could enjoy be
ing sea sick without leaving our city.

After reading the accounts
of the immense damage that
is being done to farm and city
property by floods in many
sections of the Mississippi
valley states, we once more
feel constrained to rise and
exclaim, BLESSED are they
who reside in Idaho" Here
nature works so admirably
that damage by high water
is almost an unknown thing.
Tn the very sections where
the farmers are now battl-
ing against high water, a few
months hence they may be
praying for rain to save their
growing g crops. Then will the
farmers OF Idaho be wearing
broad smiles as they watch
their growing crops, which
will be watered from the grad
ually melting Snow, which is
piled high on the mountains
and which will quench the
thirsting ground by means o.
countless miles of irrigatine
bitches.

Poca tello citiz ems, lik e
those of Montpelier, have
been waiting and hoping for a
new passenger depot for 10
these many years. Well, our
Gate City neighbors got tired
of waiting and being put off
with promises that 'work on
the depot would commence
soon, so the Commercial
Club appointed a committee
of 20 prominent citizens to go
to Salt Lake and confer with
Shorl Line officials and OBJ
tain, if possible, some definite
information as to when the
long looked for depot was GO
ing TO be built. Well, the
committee journeyed to Zion
last week and told General
Manager Bancroft that they
had come after the new depot
and that they weren't going
home until they got it, and
figura ratively speaking, they
took the depot home with
them in their vest pockets.
At a ny rate, they obtained an
absolute promise that work
on q 100000 depot in the
Gate City would be commenc
ed a bout the first of July.
Now in proportion to the
volume of business done b,
the Short Line at the two
towns, Montpelier is more il
need of new depot thar
Poe atello. We have been pu
off with promises that 81
would surely be built mex
year." but there is no NOR,
indication of new depot her,
today than there was fiv'
years ago, and if we don't g
after one in a manner simila
to the way Pocatello did, it i
a ci nch that the present shacI
will be answering the pur
poses of a depot five year
hence. 1t is true, "a couple c
years ago a committee of cit
zens went to Salt Lake to cor
fer with Mr.. Bancroft on thi
matter, but they were put o
with fiimsy promises. Nearl
every dinky station on tn
Short Line has a ten to ON
better depot than Montpelie
and we believe that the tim
has come for Montpelier
ma ke up and go after the of
eials and keep after them III
til we get what we want an
what we have long been en-
titled to-a new passenge
depot and freight house.
