SPRING SONG.
[ BY A. Maqnate.

The hand of spring now paints with
green
The meadow and the vale.
It touches with a master hand
The hill and wood and dale,
And soon in yonder baseball yard .
Will bloom the golden kale.
The ripping riIl by yonder hill
Now sings from dawn till dark,
And in yon eloudless sky hear
The warbIing Of the lark,
And soon the iron men will sing
In yonder baseball park.
The robin sings merry lay
As in the sky il fits,
And yet | know a song that puts
The robins on the fritz.
II is the turnstie's merry voice:
"Four bits! Four bits! Four bits"

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. Feb. 4
Prof John C. Muerman, who was for
many years superintendent of schools
in Moscow, Idaho and who in 1900
was appointed to a position in the
public school system of the Philip
pine Islands, later to be transferred
to the position of superintendent of
schools of the largest province in the
Islands, that of Cebu, has been ap-
pointed to a position under the Uni
ted States B reau of Education and
will have charge of very RESPONSE
BILE part of the work that the Nation
al Bureau of Education is taking up,
looking to the raising of the stand
ard generally of the public schools
throughout the United States. Su
perintendent Muerman's work will be
largely in the Western states and his
position carries with it very heavy
responsibilities in the way of shap-
| ing policy that is being worked out.
DR.. Claxton, who is the Commissioner
of Education, stated recently that If
he could have the privilege of ex-
pending $4,000, annually in work
ing out the public school problems
of the United States during the next
few years, he believed he could bring
up the work accomplished to the ex-
tent of saving $4O,OOO,OOO annually
to the public schools of the various
states. The last Congress made an
appropria ion for the beginning of
the work that Dr. Claxton, has in
mind, and there is very pronounced
sentiment in favor of enlarging the
work to the end that the educational
system of the United States may
take on more permanent and uni
form characteristics.

THE PEOPLE RULED.

An interesting chapter in news
paper work has just closed at Po-
catello. 1t is about the 23rd chap
ter in Pocatellos freak journalism,
and ends with "skiddoo." 1t is
about the 3rd part performed by the
actor who is just giving up the work
beaten.
1t is the case of Truxton Talbot
who chose to conduct his newspaper
on lines pretending to be progressive
and in favor of the under dog in the
fight. He was ever ready with hard
criticism for leading men in the
community, and as often as he got
through with one he took up another
He has frequently been charged with
following this course to drive bust
ness to his office" and whatever the
motive, charge of criminal libel has
been docketed against him for some
time, and when he started the Poca-
tello Chronicle last fall people re-
fused to patronize him or to patron
ize anybody who advertised with
him.
i It was common report that he was
backed by the Pocatello Water COM
pany, and the public was very much
disturbed at his nerve in returning
to that city for the third time to run
a newspaper The expression most
frequently heard was, "Do we have
to stand for him again?"The problem
gradually resolved itself into the
condition mentioned, nobody doing
business with the new paper and the
people the victors in the maneuvers
It is a good illustration of how the
people, ultimately rule in relation to
their press.
The paper has been just taken over
by B. L. Kinsey, and w. A. Wells
!. but the announcement does not in
dictate, whether they will be the in
p struments of the water company Of
their own free managtrs. If it de
i. velops that the paper is being oper

. ,,er.. company in yelled efforts it will

will do with it in the way of patron
age. The town needs another paper
= but what it wants is not what it has
been getting -.'.

OUR SUPREME COURT.

: These are lively times in the Idaho
Legislature over our supreme court,
and they are freely censured on the
floor. A bill has been introduced
proposing an amendment to the con-
stitution making it legal to have five
judges instead of three. In discus
sion of the matter the opponents of
the measure suggest that the judges
get down to work and keep at it and
they can handle the business coming
up to them. On Tuesday morning
Senator Fairchild stated that the
constitution at present forbids mem
'bers of theasnpreme court from being
candidates for office. while holding

&C. j. Lisle,, editor Of the Richfield
Recorder and one of the strong edi-
torial writer's of the state, made a
lengthy analysis of the Capital, News
contempt case last week in which he
scored both the court and the Capital
News. ;, Mr., Isle was in the court
room when, the famous decision was
read, and probably voices the senti-
ment of the public on the question as
we'll as anything that has been writ
ten, reaching the conclusion that
there. was wrong on both sides. In
concluding his analysis of the part
taken by the News he expresses re-
greet that they did not follow a high
cltan plane and make themselves
master Of the situation.
He finds that the same venom made
itself manifest toward the court in
it's radical expression, led them to
place themselves on a low plane
when the eyes of so many people we're
upon them, and that they did not
measure up to what was expected OF
them. Following is his parting
paragraph on the subject:
A self-poisoned mind has led the
News to throw away golden OPP
portunity to be martyr for Justice
and truth. and to be a leader for
progress. The mantle of prophecy
and leadership must fall on other
shoulders not branded with the
brand of injustice. No martyr OF

ROSE CULTURE.

Now that roses are so cheap, near
ly every lover of flowerss can in
dulge in a few varieties of roses.
Some one has said that: HE who
would have roses must work for
them" meaning I suppose that we
must be constantly on the watch for
the numerous pests and enemies with
which the queen of flowers" is in
tested,
Roses that are kept in fine grow
ing condition are much less liable
to mildey, attacks of red spiders,
green lice, the aphis, etc, than are
those in weak condition.
| First one must secure healthy,
thriving plants. Any good reliable
nursery will supply you with these
at very reasonable rates. I could
mention many firms from personal
knowledge were I disposed but it is
not my intention to give free adver-
tisements, so suffice it to say good
plants can be obtained very cheaply
now of any large firm.
Roses are divided into two classes,
the hardy, and those that must be
carefully protected to withstand the
cold of our northern winters. Be-
tween these two classes is another
partaking of the nature of both var
ieties; I mean the hybid perpetuals,
they are with light protection quite
hardy in our climate
For the teas, noisettes and hybrid
perpetuals I have had the best re-
suits from the follow methods of
culture. Plant them in a light rich
soil, we'll drained the location should
be sunny, but some of the delicate
trees do much better to be protected
during the extreme heat of summer
from the midday heat. A movable
screen is most convenient for this
purpose. The foliage is kept in a
clean healthful condition by sprink-
ling the plants at night. For the in
sect pests which abound mix white
hellebore one part with two parts
flour and sift or blow with a small
bellows (if you have one) upon the
foliage. The hellebore is a deadly
poison and one meal of this suffices
for the pests for time at least
The hardy roses should have q
well-drained sunny location. Should
be freely mulched with rotted ma,
ure both spring and fall. After the
blooming period all faded roses
should at once be clipped from the
plants. The moss roses are hardy sc
, far as my experience goes. They, as
all varieties, however. will do better
with rich, generous mulching ir
the fall. This serves two purposes. II
protects the roots from the extreme
changes of a northern winter. and
also supplies to them the required
sustenance for another seasons
growth of foliage and bloom. The
white roses, Count de Musinais is re-
garded by many rose-growers the
very best of the white varieties. The
roses are large and full and the buds
are beautifully messed.
