Sensible Spanish KING.

King Alfonso of Spain has so far re-
fused to follow the usual custom Of
the Spanish court of residing at the
Escorial during the summer. He is
reported as saying lately. with grim
humor In explanation of this refusal:
II shall spend quite enough time at
the Escorial when l am dead, and do
not intend to stay there until have
lost the right to choose my residence"
The Escorial palace, it will be re-
called, contains within its vast area
the mausoleums which form the final
resting place of Spanish royalty.

The claim made by the Times in a
recent issue that the business men of
this city are not living up to their OPP
pOrtunities is corroborated by nearly
every commission man who has to
make the surrounding territory. The
smaller towns are getting more and
more of the trade OF this county which
has heretofore come to Twin Falls.
The carload shipments in from the
other towns shows big increase and
also indicates a big increase in the
trade going to each. The Times will
not attempt to point the remedy for
the detection of old customers from
the trading point here to some other
locality, but it should be investigated
at once by the business men. Some
have laid it to the cheaper prices on
necessities for the home given in the
smaller towns, and state that there
Is large discrepancy in the prices in
favor of the small town merchant
Whether this is the real reason for
changing conditions The Times would
not hazard even a guess, but it is GER
tainly UP to the merchants to see that
a solution of the problem be quickly
made.
