The Manicure
Lady
By WILLIAM F. KIRK.

GYM 1LFRED has got a queer
Wv notion IN his head that
something terrible is go
ing 10 happen to the city said the
Manicure Lady. Ever since We had
that little earthquake shock he has
been incoming around the house. read
ing all the stories that he could find
IN the library ahout great disasters
such & foods. fires, earthquakes and
political exposures. He says he ain
quite sure that this amt the begin
ming of the end ~ the world itself
II have felt kind OF leary myself
ever since that shock said the Head
Barber. II wouldn't care none to have
one OF them skyscrap ers fall on me.
The wev ] figure Il, we are all dying
fast enough now without getting that
kind OF a break. But anyway, if
business don't pick up before long,
we are all likely TO starve before ans
other disaster comes along. Yester
day took in two bits all day long,
and ! was ashamed to pay car fare

itself, guess, but II amt got nothing
on Wilfred. He is the original re-
peating kid ] guess he has told ne
up to the house at least a hundred
times that history repeats itself. He
says that there have always been
great disasters in great cities, ever
since the last days Of Pompev and
the rise and fall OF the Roman UNI

Wilfred is right this time, because
everything else that he ever predicted
always turned out different than he
said, and he must be about due To hit
the nail on the head, even il he does it
by mistake
81 guess there aln't nothing very
desperate going to happen to the
town, at least nothing any worse
than is happening TO It all the time,
said the Head Barber. Even when
we amt having no disaster the big
town has troubles enough-thousands
of troubles that tho rest OF the world
never knows. How would you like 70
have a penny, kiddo. for every trouble
there is in the city now?
II wouldn't like TO make no money
by counting up peoples troubles, said
the Manicure Lady. 81 amt much
more than getting by financially but
] wouldn't look up the troubles in
this big burg if ! was to get dollar
for every GRIEF here. But what l
started to tell you was about a poem
that Wilfred has wrote and is keeping
so he can print It when the great
disaster comes. Listen, George;
AT night there came n awful noise
or breaking stone and falling
plaster:
Then all the women, men and boys
Knew that there was a terrible dis
aster

The breaking % q city up,
And all the peopc far and near
with sadness brimfull was their

to be worse than them lines, said the
Head Barber They sound mighty
light to me
They are light" admitted the
Manicure Lady. "Wilfred was NJ

Can you name a few of them,
Mr.. Parker? If not, will you ad-
NIT the corn? In that event we
can name at least three of these

leaders and fatty refused the
bait.
Again you say that Bro. Winner
might lose fat county printing
contract" in case county division
is defeated. Really, this almost
makes US weep. After the many
fat county printing contracts you
have held here in years gone by,
to accuse US of such smallness!
Do you realize, Mr.. Parker, that
during the thirteen years we
have been engaged in the print
ing business in Idaho county we
have never shown even a banker
ing for the county printing Job,
leaving it entirely to your county
seat papers, and still have man.
aged to hammer out fair living
over here among the rest of the
ne'er-do-wells? Are you entirely
fair with US?
You say that Cottonwood has
tried to hog" the entire prairie
by drawing lines within five miles
of the city of Grangeville. Well,
whose fault is it. Do we have
to whip a man for piece of pie
and then be satisfied with the
crust? Grangeville's gang" has
felt so high and mighty in the
past as to laugh at any puny at
tempts at county division and has
refused to even consider the pos
sibility of adjusting lines and
submitting to the will of the peo-
pie. Consequently it becomes
necessary to take in enough ter
rltory to secure a majority of the
votes in the county. If this
proves Grangeville's undoing she
has the utter selfshness of her
gang" to thank for it.
The Chronicle does not and
never has hoped to convince the
people of the county seat town
that they should favor county
division, but we do hope to con-
vince the residents of the pro-
posed Randall county, in which
the greater part of our circulation
exists. Randall county will be
very similar in all respects to

on practically the same expense

agricultural land and taxable
property; its officers can cover
