PLEASANT AMENITIES.
(WendelI Irrigationist.l

Clarke being the captives. They were
taken before local minister and con-
fessed to conspiracy in plotting TO de-
prive the county recorder Of a trained
and efficient deputy-Miss Clarke
On pIedging upon their sacred word of
honor to love. cherish and protect
till death do US part"--obey clause
omitted-they were permitted to go
ahead with their plans TO create one
of the contest homes in Shoshone.
Miss Clarke is well known in Sho-
shone and is one of the most popular
young women there. She is an
accomplished young woman and for
the past four years has served as
assistant to county Recorder Harry
Anderson.
L. NJ. Zug first began his reforming
by throwing this lead pencils in the
Snake river and letting someone else
run the Rupert paper. Next he serv-
ed as deputy Sheriff and the voters
liked him so well they put him on the
main job. When the term expired
they couldn't think of letting him go
and hired him for two years more.
And now he has established a home
In Shoshone, where he can make
Deputy Chapman sorry that he turned
down all those leap year offers.

WHERE THE WEST BEGINS.
Out where the handclasp's little
stronger.
Out where emile dwells little longer
That's where the West begins.
Out where the sun is a little brighter.
Where the SHOWS that fall are a trifle
whittier.
Where the bonds OF home are wee
bit tighter.
That's where the West begins.
out where the skies are trifle oluer.
Out where friendships a little truer,
That's where the West begins.
out where fresher breeze is blowing,
Where there's laughter in every stream
let flowing.
Where there's more OF reaping and less
Of sowing
That's where the West begins.
Ont where a world is in the making,
Where fewer hearts with despair are
aching
That's where the West begins.
Where there's more OF singing and less
of signing,
Where there's more Of giving and less
Of buying,
And a man makes friends without half
trying
That's where the West begins.

LAND OFFICE AT HALEY
SUBJECT OF PROBABLE CHANGE.

The most important Federal offices
to be filled by the incoming administra-

The United states Marshalship and the
two land office appointments at
HALEY. Ben r. Gray is said to be
slated for marshalship. This office win
not become vacant till December. 1916,
which is a long time to wait
Referring to the land office appoint
ment the Times OF HALEY has this 10

but it is clear of all expenses. The
office here does more business than
any other land office in the United
States and is productive of much
revenue Tor Uncle sam. SPECIAL
business ability is required. also
some knowledge of the land laws and
of the law of evidence But any
Democrat is doubtless competent to
fill the positions. Ask any Of them.
All the same. though. the inspectors
who have examined the HALEY office
the past two years have said that 1t
is the best conducted office in the
United States They have absolute

with it. The term OF Register

months later 1t may be that they
will be reappOinted. They certainly
win be if the good of the service is
given due consideration If there is
change in the land officials here Mr.
Gray viii probably be given a berth

DEMOCRATIC oisseNsloNs.

The Democrats are now beginning to
have their troubles and divisions which
have been so disastrous to the Repub-
licans in the past and the recent cam
paign. It is now certain that the Demo-
Gratis win not only have the presidency
and the House but the Senate as well.
They stand pledged to progressive leg
isation and when they reorganize the
Senate, Senator Simmons who is the
ranking member on the committee Of
Finance for the Craftsmanship which is
the important committee for the senate
and will control the tariff legislation.
is a "standpatter' and reactionary.
How the Democrats can make that
committee a progressive with Simmons
chairman is the problem now confront
ing them.
Mr.. Bryan is anxious TO have Senator
Gore. Of Okla, made chairman of that
Committee as he Is in hearty accord
with the views Of Mr.. Bryan and presi-
dent-elect Wilson. 1t is not thought
however that senatorial courtesy viii
permit Gore to take precedence in this
matter notwithstanding the wishes OF
Bryan, Wilson or anyone else. It IS
very evident however from utterances
of Wilson that he does not intend to
have the tariff so radically revised as
TO cause a hitch or depression in busi-
ness which now looks very promising.

OF colleges and universities is called
that there might be secured the coun-
sci of that group of men who. after
all, have been the center and support
of student Bible study work. A very
little reflection will show Just how
much the professor has done directly
in this work
Most of our Bible study texts have
been prepared by faculty men. A large
majority OF the normal classes for
group teacher training are led by pro-
fessors. Advisory committees, super
visory committees, special. commits
slons, have all been served by them
with distinction. And beyond all this
is the wide-reaching influence on the
side that is called personal-coun-
sci with leaders and secretaries, in
formal home functions, for Bible
groups, special help in religious diff
flculties; the Christian student will
have the debt always with him
The professor who attends brings
with him a personal experience, an
association experience, and a mental
training that enables him to distingu-
ish the enduring from the ephemeral;
and to bring such things to counsel
means a direct service to thousands
of students on this continent. The pro-
fessor, leaving Richmond, will carry
with him the interpreted experience of
the larger part of the Bible study work
of all associations What would our
student leaders feel if they knew that
| their work could be planned by a facul-
ty adviser who had been closely in
touch with the best recent discussion
of the work the leaders were called
upon to lead?
Such a conference as this is full of
possibility. When industrial organiza-
tons are making investigations at
regular intervals, surely it becomes us
in this serious matter of promoting the
study of Gods word through the Bible
to give the best of our time and at
tention freely and conscientiously!

RICHMOND IS REGARDED AN IDEAL PLACE
FOR HOLDING THE BIG BIBLE CONFERENCE

foray Of single party to be turned
into a great irresistible movement
forward all along the line. A confer
matter of necessity and of prime
Importance if the issue at stake is
large enough.
Any movement that takes anything
for granted, so 1t is said, is lost. Conf
dence that leads to a blind pursuit of
old methods is gradually preparing
ruin. The work of the Bible study de-
Associations of the United States and
Canada has not been a small work.
1t has spread abroad with such won
derful rapidity and intensity of in
terest that there is no longer left in
any mind the doubt that the Bible can
appeal to the educated man. Last year
some forty thousand tests for student
study were distributed among our stu
dent associations from the central pub
fishing agency; and this, of course,
is exclusive of many other texts and
outline courses. The recent progress
toward securing greater efficiency
in the leaders of groups has meant
much in the work, and the returns
have been rapid and satisfactory. Yet
in the face of all this, perhaps, it is
proper to say, because of all this there
must be an immediate restudy of the
whole field. Weaknesses in the work
will be discovered and new lines Of ex-
pertinent started.
The situation must be restudied
now. And the conference of professors

In a recent issue of the "Intercol-
1egian," publication of the student
department of the international COM
mittee, Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation, appeared an article on the
professors conference, which is to be
held here May 2 and 3, in which flat
tering comment was made on the city
of Richmond. 1t said: "The conference
is to be in pleasant and stimulating
surroundings. Richmond, Indiana, is
called Familiarity the 'Panic-Proof City
1t has population of about 10000.
Around Richmond lies some of the
most valuable agricultural land in the
Mississippi valley. The citizens have
given the conference the most open
hearted welcome, and have undertaken
to provide entertainment for all dele
gates.
Relating to the conference in gen.
eral the article says:
Everyone will say, Here's another
conference" The burden of proof is
upon the man who, in these days sug-
gests any more comforting" of any
kind.
Such an attitude is both just and un-
just. Fruitless conference is serious
waste of good material. But it must
be remembered that by the confer
ence method some of the very best

denominations, and for various other
organizations set to service for men,

CURIOUS BITS
OF HISTORY
THE HATED HIRED HIS
SLAMS.
BY A. w. MACY.

"HIred Hessians" were much
despised by the Americans dur
Ing tho Revolutionary war. The
employment Of mercenaries, or
foreign soldiers who fight for
pay, was formerly much moro
common than it is now. During
tho American Revolution Eng
land had much difficulty In re-
crulting her armies, so she made
arrangements with various petty
German rulers by which they
undertook to furnish troops, to
serve under their own officers
In America. For each soldier
killed England agreed to pay
$35, and for each one wounded,
$12. She was also to pay all
expenses, and in addition pay
the Landsrave Of Hesse $500, 900
per annum and the other petty
princes In proportion. This
practice was looked upon by the
Americans as degrading and
Infamous, and they took particu-
lar delight in Furnishing the
hired soldiers whenever oppor-
tunlty offered. The total num-
Der Of such troops brought over
to America during the Revolu-
ton was 2s,s67, of whom about
1000 were killed or mortally
wounded, 1854 died from other
causes, about 5000 deserted,
and 1873 returned to their
European homes at the end of
the war.
