able comment throughout the State,
especially among the members Of the
Legislature, and It is probable that
Georgia will never see a return TO the
brass band" inaugurals OF former
years. The inauE ration Of Governor
Slaton was, II anything, just a little
more simple than the last Inaugural
ton Of Governor Brown. There was
no display OF any sort and the very
absence OF elaborate ceremony added
to the strength and impressiveness OF
the occasion.

NO HOG CHOLERA
AT POCATELLO

The report that has spread be-
yond the limits of the state to
the effect that hog cholera in a
virulent form is prevalent near
Pocatello is untrue. The officers
have followed up these rumors
to ascertain the facts in the mat
ter and they are convinced that
there is no foundation in fact
for such canards. Several cases
we're found at the Gooding pack
ing house, and as a consequence
the plant was closed down for
some time, but 80 far as we are
informed there is nothing &c
cause undue apprehension from
this source in this end OF the
state. However, it would be well
for all hog raisers to keep a
sharp lookout for anything like
the semblance of this dread NAL.

THE HOGHEAD'S
STRANGE DELIGHT

Engine whistling is. doubtless, neces-
sary in the economy OF railroading, but
it is by no means conducive to soreness
OF temper and that beatific frame of
mind that leads to lofty thoughts and
tranquility of spirit. The intellectual
cocoanut of the hoghead who holds to
the whistle cord. shuts eyes. his tongue
lolling out the corner of his mouth. and
yanks out salvos OF shrieks and snorts,
should have his think tank fixed Five
screeches to call in the fsgman, two
more to give eclat aud a flourish to sig
nalize the start, and few desultory
yawps as the outfit leaves town, is
enough to make a man sit up and take
notice. That profanity is on the increase
all along the line, and that newfangled
cusswords and horrid anathema are be-
ing coined daily in Parma, is due to the
propensity of the eagle eye to make q
noise and a whole passel OF sinners

A Manly Minister.

There1l be less sleeping done In fu-
ture in the First Christian church Of
Los Angeles, because the rector just
won't stand for 1t. as Is evidenced by
what he did some nights ago. 1t seema
that the worthy man went into the pull
pit to discourse, when he was annoyed
by two men who were sound asieep
In one Of the front pews. He called
attention to the fact, and one Of the
sleepers was aroused. and did not
transgress again, but his partner did
not wake to the rebuke, and quietly
slept on. The parson became indig-
nant. and as he had several hymn
books In the pulpit with him. he fred
one or two at the sleeper, but without
avail, and then he unloaded all the
books he had at the intruder. to the
astonishment of the congregation, who
by this time were titteriug at a great
rate. but the sleeper didn't seem to
mind It much, for he looked up
changed his position. and fell asleep
again. This is an astonishing case
probably unparalleled in history, but
1t goes to show that there's limit to
what preachers viii stand. even when
they are In the pulpit And they are
right II man doesn't go to church

THEIR LOSS
is OUR GAIN
Great Loss Sustained by
Eastern Farmers from
Heat and Drouth

The intense heat L, the East during
the month just closed has had the effect
OF attracting the attention OF the home
seeker to the better climate ~ the North
west, and especially conditions that pre-
vail in the Snake River valley. That
which has been source OF great loss to
the farmers OF Kansas, Oklahoma and
Nebraska, will prove the means of ad-
vertising more effectively Suake River
lands, its climate and other advantages.
For in this region drouth is unknown,
torrid heat and the whitening rays OF
summer sun and a scarcity of water do
not enter as factors OF destruction and
ruin as is too often the case in tho Mid
die West AS result OF the fearful
conditions that have been reported from
the above section during the month OF
August the railroads have been busily
engaged in circulating literature relating
to Idaho and the other states OF the
Northwest. Next year, no doubt, this
campaign OF publicity will bear fruit Of
a substantial and lasting kind, and Par.
ma. along with the other progressive
towns of this great valley, will be i'm
measurably the gamer.
