The Eagle does not take much stock
in this mobilization of troops unless
il means something. If it is done for
the. purpose of intimidation, then the
game is not worth the ammunition.
Mexico kno>s we have the troops and
their presence in Galveston is no more
than if they were at any other of our
army posts. We don't believe in NOV
ing the soldiers until we are ready for
business. We are by that like we are
about drawing a gun. We have never
yet had to draw gun, and as the
darkey said, please God, here's hopin'
we never WILL" but If we do, therell
be some shooting if she don't snap.

HELP TO BEAR THE MESSAGE.


Tread before a meeting Of the eA
ecutive board of the Christian Churc
on Sunday afternoon by the authorl
Will you help to bear the message
To the man across the sea?
He's entitled to its blessing
Every bit as much as we.
VIII you help to raise the mother
From her low, degraded state?
Then contribute something, brother,
For the task is verp great.
Do you hear? 1t is another
Plain old Macedonian call:
1t is up to you, my brother,
Just the same as twas to Paul.
You can help to send a preacher
Who will preach the simple Word
To some sad benighted creature
Who, perhaps, has never heard
OF the one life-giving story
Of the Man of Galilee,
Who, now seated up in glory,
Intercedes for you and me.
Let us help to bear the message
To the man across the sea,
He's entitled to it's blessing
Every bit as well as we.
Brother, sister, here's your duty
Turn the darkness into light,
Not for worldly praise or booty
Do it just because it's right.

MEXICAN RULERS
EXECUTED IN THE PAST

An obscure country priest, Hidalgo,
conspired with his own parish in the
State of Guanajuato in 1910, and in
the fall of that year when he rang the
bell of his church to call the people
to war, an army of 5000 rallied to his
standard. He pressed on toward Mex
leo City with constantly increasing
numbers until he had following Of
100000 patriotic, but undisciplined
men.
A force of only 5000 veteran SOL
diers of Spain delivered a crushing
defeat in January 1911, and drove
Hidalgo to the mountains, where he
waged guerilla warfare until he was
caught and shot in July, 1911.
The list of Emperors of Mexico
who have listened last to the rifles

Miguel Hidalgo Y. Costilla, liberia

The assessed valuation of the prop
erty Of the city of Bryan for 1912 was
$2,605O00. The tax on this amount
would be $29,95750. In addition there
is some $4,000 in special street tax,
besides the fines, sale of city property,
etc. All counted, the city's income is
quite large sum. 1t seems to be all
gone, however, and at the last meeting

.S6O,OOO IN GEMS
 REPORTED STOLEN FROM HANAN HOME

Narragansett Pier, R. l., July 30.- Persistent ruTnors that $60,O00 worth of gems had been stolen from the sum ner home of John H. Hanan of New York were circulated among the mem bers of the summer colony today. Fol lowing so close upon yesterdays an nouncement that jewelry valued at $75,ooo had been taken few days ear Her from the cottage of c. c. Runsey, the we'll known polo player and son-in- law of the late E. H. Hartman, the report of the robbery at the Hanan home was generally credited by the summer colonists-
 Mrs. Hanan, however, denied ena- phatically that her jewels had been stolen and the local police said that they had received no report of a rob- bery at the Hanan home.
 According to the story circulated among the summer residents the rob- bery occurred on Friday evening dur ing Mrs. Hanan'S absence and it was not until the next morning that Mrs. Hanan missed the gems from her dressing case. MT. Hanan, who was i'll in an adjoining room, did not hear the thieves, it was said

The Real
 Trade-Make1

And how many millions of sales each day result from newspaper advertising?
 The thought is stupendous in it's far-reaching importance.
 The newspaper brings the manufacturers ware to public at tention; it brings the customer to the store. and it causes the store to sell to the customer.
 Without the newspaper there would be no buyer, and with no buyer, naturally no trade.
 So you see what force the newspaper is in making up the elements of a bargain.
 When you pick up your copy of THE FARMER and read over the advertisements give this subject thought.
 Note how close THE FARMER brings you to the hot weather of ferings of the different merchants
 Note how THE FARMER aids in reducing the high cost of liv- ing; how it brings comforts for body and home within your easy reach.
 And while this newspaper aids you it also helps the merchant. for advertising helps him sell his goods.

LITTLE BEAUTY CHATS
On How to Sleep
BY BLANCHE BEACON

This is to be an article both on how to sleep and how to sleep correctly. Most people are content merely to sleep, and there are certain number who would be in a state of positive super-content if someone could tell them how to sleep. But the mum mber of otherwise enlightened humans who s1eep-but not correctly-is a great one.

Surely, you can see the wisdom of that yourself. The health (and appearances) of the world in general would be better if we did without pillows altogether. Try it a while. You will find it astonishing ly comfortable, especially in this hot weather.
 But do not get into the habit of tucking a hand or arm under your head or pillow while sleeping. It is

COUNTY IN SPELLING MATCH
Prizes. to be Given in Writing and
Spelling as Well as Defamation

County Superintendent Ramsey
has sent out to the teachers of the
county this week a letter which
explains that there will be old
fashioned spelling matches held
during the coming school ycaf.
During the joint institute session
held recently at Occur d Alene, =
committee was appointed at the
Bonner county sectional meeting
to take charge of arrangements for
the regular declamatory contest of
the county. This committee de-
cided to follow the previous rules
in the matter of the declamatory
contest, but recommended that a
Bonner county spelling contest be
organized also. The county SPELL
ing contest will occur in April
when suitable prizes, to be an
nounced later, will be given the
winners. One pupil from each
school will be allowed to compete
and the Progressive Speller will be
used in all contests. Mr.. Ramsey
urges the schools to prepare for
the finals by having spelling bees
among their pupils which shall be
extended to spelling matches be-
tween neighboring schools.
Superintendent Ramsey also
suggests that prizes be given by
the school trustees of the several
districts for the greatest improve
ment of pupils in writing. There
will be finals i'll the writing contest
also and the samples of the two
winners in each of the school con-
tests will be forwarded to the
county superintendent Office and
three awards made, as follows:
First, choice of hve-dollar fishing
outfit or FIVE dollars worth of mer-
chandise from Cranston Bros.
store; second prize. a Waterman
fountain pen by the Standpoint
Drug company; third prize, a s.
pound box of chocolates by the
Royal Confectionery.
The verse which all will write in
the finals, is as follows:
Let others sigh of orange groves,
Where warmer sunbeams shine;
The lofty mountains freedom loves,
And freedoms choice is mine.
l sigh not for a southern cline
Where tropic roses blow;
Give me the pine-clad hills sublime,
The hills of Idaho.

lew REGISTRATION
LAW
Completely Changes Methods ol
Recording Voters

The Boise Statesman gives
synopsis of the new registration
law of Idaho, which is entirely
different from the old, as follows:
The county auditor is put in
general charge of the registration
and justices of the peace and not
aries public take the place of the
former registry agents. Under the
law person who voted at the last
general election is not required to
re register for the next. Notaries
public and justices can register up
to within 80 days of the election.
The county auditor is to furnish
the judges of election before the
polls open with complete list of
the registered voters of the pre-
cinct. Before that is made up any
voter who has changed his resi-
dence from one precinct to another
may be transferred by notifying
the auditor. Should qualified
voter fail to register he can be
added to the list on election day by
the judges of election, providing
affidavit as to his qualifications as
voter is made by a registered
freeholder of the same precinct.
In case voters were registered 1t
the last election but did not vote
they must re-register. The CONF
pensation of justices and notaries
for acting as registrars is to be fixed
by the county commissioners"
