Sometimes people complain of the familiarity of
interiors. At the slightest intimation that an in
ferior is growing familiar they likely to show
resentment. But the familiarity of the poor is slight
compared with that of the wel-todo in their atti-
tude toward the poor
Advantage opens the door to all kinds of familiar
ty with those less fortunate intrusion into private
affairs, including religious belief, the asking of
intimate, personal questions, the giving of unsolicited
advice, and the of first names. One of the quick
est ways by which superiority is asserted and estab
lished is by means of familiar address

In the etiquette books there is one consideration in
regard to manners that read about, what we
owe to the example of the poor. The assumption
seems to be that it is the we-to-do that have the
best manners. As if there could be any manners in
the world worse than those that either openly or
covertly convey patronage.

NUMBER "a
More County Division

We understand that there is
now in the preliminary stages
another movement for the carv-
ing out of a portion of Fallon
county. County Clerk F. C.
Bum was called upon this week
to furnish the assessed valuation
of twenty-five townships in the
central west portion of the coun-
ty which it is proposed will con-
stitute a part Of a new county to
be known as Ismay County. The
new division movement will come
as a surprise to manv but we un-
derstand that the prom oters have
been working on the plan for
some time and that their inten-
tons are to select their new coun-
ty out Of parts If F'allon and Gus
ter. The assessed valuation of
the townships proposed to be
taken from Fallon amounts to
l?1,344, 100, and this added to-
gcther with what is to be sliced
from old Custer is intended to
give the new division enthusiasts
more than the required amount.
Later-This morning we OBJ
tanned from County Clerk F. C.
Bum the list of townships that
the new division promoters in
tend to take from this county.
He also informed us that the as
sessed valuation would be some
what higher than at first re.
ported. the actual figures now
being 81. 365. 1872. The number
