A PIPE DREAM.

I For a year the Star-Mirror has, from
ftime to time, said that it favored Aud
I itor S. D. Taylor for governor. This
paper has given as a reason the fact
that Mr. Taylor has shown himself to
be a friends of north Idaho. He has
stood for squal taxation. He has stood
for square deal for the north Ida
no farmers in the matter of apportion-
ing state loans. He has been fair
and honest, a man tried and expert
enced in matters of state.
Some weeks ago, so the Troy News
discovered, there appeared in the Star
Mirror one of number of editorials
favorable to Mr. Taylor, and, accord
ing to the Troy paper, w. d. Humistcn
land agent for the Potlatch Lumber
company, happened to visit Moscow
that same week, and it is charged, hap
pened to be seen in the company of
the editor of the Star-Mirror This
was conclusive proof, to the Troy
News, that S. d. Taylor was unfit for
governor. The Orofino Tribune takes
up the cry and comes out this week in
terrible state of agitation lest the
dear people be gobbled up, because S.
d. Taylor is an unfit man for gov
ernor, because the Troy News said that
somebody said so.
Who has not heard the old story
of Chicken Little? Remember how, be-
cause one day, while the chicken was
sleeping "a leaf fell on it's tail, it was
suddenly awakened, and stirred up
the whole barnyard because the whole
world was coming to an end. Asked |
for proof and the little chicken told |
how a piece of sky had fallen on it's
tail. The chickens and the geese and
the turkeys scurried under shelter, for,
the rumor ran, piece of sky had fall
len on Chicken Titles tail.
What a great thing it is that the
country has some honest editors. How
fortunate that we have those who can
come to the rescue and save the coun-
try, even though it be from nothing
more serious than imaginary impend-
ing disaster from a falling rose leaf.
When, after the people have been so
accommodating as to grow frightened
over imaginary ghosts, the dear pub t
lie permits itself to be saved by these |
budding statesmen who appear on the |
scene at the proper time, and the S
william is unmasked just /
as they do it in the plays, let us hope
the people will not spoil the play by t
to understand that the proper N
reward for these heroes is elevation to n
some office. For if it were not for pub 5
ic office the annual crop of heroes "
would be small indeed Let us not re- y
use to honor those who save the coun- Il
ry once every two years. 5

MOSCOW HIGH SCHOOL

heard west of the Mississippi, and /
also includes men, who, but a few
days ago, were doing a business il
the rush and whirl and apparent con
fusion of the busy streets and market
places of cities like st. Louis, Cincin-
natl, Chicago and others Of the east
too numerous to mention.
The demand of the world today is
that business be done as rapidly as
possibly, in as small space as posi-
BILE and with as little confusion as
possible and the world has found that
all the improvements l have referred
to, aid business.
The electric light furnishes the bust
ness man much safer, cleaner method
of lighting his place of business and
his office than the old fashioned,
smoky, smelly, exploding coal oil lamp.
The telegraph connects the most dis
tant business centers in a moment OF
time. The telephone enables the Mos
COW business man to arrange his at
fairs of business with men hundreds
of miles away in the small time OF
seconds. Our great transcontinental
railroads bring to us their tons and
tons of merchandise from the east to
the west almost between dusk and
dawn, while we sleep.
In the large cities great automobile
trucks convey from one part to an
other, from freight shed or dock to
warehouse, from warehouse to place of
retail or perhaps from warehouse to
other freight sheds for transportation
to other markets, vast quantities OF
at comparatively little |
cost for less than it would cost, and |
with for greater speed than the same
work could possibly be accomplished
with horses.
Business men know, and have learn
ed the lesson we'll, that that condition
Of the streets of city which most aids
in the transaction of business with
ease and speed is just as essential

This is shown by the fact that every
