WHY He IS LONELY

Thousands of people, having read Of
the vast fortunes made by those who
write the so-called popular songs, have
tried to accumulate riches and fame
by writing lyrics and composing music.
The mail bags of Jerome H. Remick &
Co., probably the largest music pub
fishing house in the world, are flooded
with manuscripts by ambitious song
writer's. All are carefully locked over
but the percentage of those accepted
is decidedly small; yet once in while
they receive one that amply repays
them for all their trouble. Thus the
new song, Maybe That Is Why I'm
Lonely, came into their hands, and it
has proven such success that the
| writer's, Messrs. Goodwin and Meyer,
have suddenly become renowned A
little love story with strong heart in
terest is told by lad in the song, who
cannot understand why he is lonely
away from the sweetheart, who, even
while she is with him, gives him very
| little encouragement. He tries to &C
count fer it in the simple chorus which
we quote. The music is especially ap-
| pealing, and both lyric and melody com
bined are what is termed by the pub
Fishers double inspiration song.
| CHORUS
Maybe that is why I'm lonely,
Maybe that is why I'm sad
Tho you keep trying to have me
signing,
You can drive the blues away,
With any loving word you say, dear.
Come on. honey, cuddle closer,
Act like other sweethearts do.
RI only know. dear, you were lonely
too, dear,
wouldn't feel so blue.

Among the republican ranks there

would be at loss fer a means of live

The free distribution Of seeds by the

representatives in congress is an ex-
pensive joke for the people who have

Quietly, StealtnlIy, the oenocTalN
leaders Of Bingham county are laying
their plans for the years state and
county campaign. Sheriff F. E. De
Kay and County Clerk j. T. Carruth
returned Sunday from Boise, but Meth
er iivulged much as to the play that
was to be made to win votes for the
party. There is much division among
the members Of the party if party it
can be called, and judging from state
ments made by leaders Of various fac
tions. there seems to be SO many lead
ers among the party that there will
be little unison. Ofccurse the great
dnwashed can depend on Honorable
Samuel J. lending his preponderence to
the. cause and between him and the
sage Of Presto, James Just, it may be
expected that many an interesting bout
will be fought cut ere the party goes
down to defeat this fall. It is under
stood that H. G. pipple is not in COM
plete harmony with all the forces and
that Charles F. Mclden, one Of the old
wheelers in the team of years gone by
will not act in conjunction with other
members. ,Heber c. G. Rich has wise
ly decided to return to the farm, it is
