WILL CLEAN UP THE CITY.

The Forward club, working in con.
junction with the city officials, pro.
pose making thorough cleanup OF
the city of Caldwell. Such an under
taking IS worthy of support and en-
>couragement at any time. 1t is par
tieularly so now in view of the fact
that Caldwell will within a couple of
weeks entertain from fifteen to twenty
thousand visitors. At that time we
wish to put on our best clothes. Cald-
we'll is naturally a clean town. The
people are proud of their lawns and
yards; careful to dispose of rubbish;
and willing at all times to put forth
every, effort to make the city as pre-
sentable as possible. The drainage
OF the town is good and in conse-
quence the town is cleaner than the
average city. Even here though
much can be done. The streets and
alleys; yards and vacant lots; should
be cleaned and all trash DESTROYED.
We understand that every effort will
De made to make the cleanup thor
ough.
In this connection it may not be out
OF place to call attention to the fact
that this cleanup should not be con- ;
fined in the front yards, or even to {
the surface. In order to be thorough
~ clean the hooks and corners should /
De investigated. In addition to this j
every residence accessible to a sewer Z
system should be forced to make con- q
nections at once. We understand that Il
there are several residences in the 0
city. easy of connection with the CITY
sewer systems which are not connect
ed. The city administration should
compel connections to be made att
once. The health of the community
demands this. Another matter that a
should be investigated is the flooding o
OF the streets while irrigating. Not c.
only are the streets injured, but the n
health OF the people is jeapordized bv o
the standing pools of water which re- W
suit from flooding the streets. These 81
matters should be gone into thor m
'ughly. SC

The people of Idaho have much te
gain from a Republican national ad.
ministration. 1t behooves them to lay
aside any difference of opinion they
may have in regard to men that the
principles and policies of the Repub-
lican party may be continued in full
force and effect. The people of Idaho
need Republican state administra-
ton; two Republican United States
senator's; and two Republican men,
bers of congress. The personal fight
between Taft and Roosevelt should
not be permitted to injure the party
in the state. ...
We are confident that the Republi-
cans by the first of next November
will have settled all their party diff
ferences. They will be solidly united
working for the success of the party
and the welfare of the country. In
the past they have gotten together
when the breach was apparently wider
than it is today. They can do that
very thing in the future.
At this time we would again re-
mind the Republicans that any direct
system has tendency to dis
,upt the majority party. Where one
'arty has every reason to expect sue
less at the general election, the rivalry
or position on that party ticket is
likely to be keen; frequently it be-
ONES very bitter. The accusations

THE HEART OF THE LUMBERJAcK

Holman Day, author of ''The Red
Lane" which has just been published by
the Harpers, tells an interesting anec-
dote illustrative of the character of the
Maine lumberman. He says: ''The
character of woodmen cannot we'll be
studied from the outside. Those who
see them on their way up to the big
woods or on their way out to town for
few days of relaxation might gather
from few examples that they are
rough, profane, and quarrelsome, with
no finer impulses. AS matter of fact"
says Mr.. Day, "most woodmen can put
to shame the cautious generosity and
calculating charity of the towns They
are children in mind and impulse and are
often misjudged like children. | have
tried to give the world true idea of
these honest men, who appear so poorly
on parade outside but who are such
true and honest men under the big trees.
One day at McAdam junction, on the
edge of the New Brunswick border, |
saw a man trying clumsiy to care for
and comfort two little girls, hardly more
than babies. The little ones were coax
ing for something from the lunch-count-
err. The man had tears in his eyes as he
talked to them in low tones. He was
man in rustic clothes, and the children
were poorly dressed. There We're seven
ty-five province woodsmen waiting for
the train, and at last one tall fellow left
the group and went to the man and the
children and began to ask questions.
The man did not seem disposed to reply,
but finally gave some information that
plainly interested the tall chap. He
hurried over to his companion. Boys
he said, the man is in bad way. He's
takin' his wife's body back to the State
to bury it side of her mother, and he's
only had money left to buy his tickets.
Dig for a dollar, every one of YEP
While the men were getting out their
money, several commercial travellers
who had overhead volunteered their help.
oh he isn't beggar, gents, said the
tall chap; hes only down on his luck and
the bills have eaten him up, for he has
paid hundred cents on dollar, the
same as we do. He's lumberjack like
we are, and this is a lumberjack's deal.
1t will be better not to mix your money
in. For he's watchin', and he might
think we was beggin' for him. But
between us woodsmen it's only bust
ness! And such was that tall chaps air
when he presented the purse to the poor
father that he came away leaving man
overcome by gratitude but retaining
his selfrespect. Sure, he didn't have
pennies enough in his pocket to buy the
little shavers bite to eat explained
the lumberjack, watching the three start
for the lunch-counter. Let's be NOV
ing down the platform further or he'll
be comm here to get us all fused up by
thankin' us.''
