Congressman Lindbergh is trying
to awaken interest in his candidacy
for the governorship by announc-
ing that he has something in view
for the people of Minnesota which
is so good and so desirable that
they will all want it, even if they

SINCE Lindbergh, w. Elimination
Lee, Sam Iverson and James
Peterson have practically pro-
claimed their intention of becoming
governor at the next election, we
are inclined to the belief that there
never was anyone said anything
but someone believed it." The
only question now arises is how
many believe it?

tby One VINO USeQ to Keep T1me'-1n Iron
Trade Review
Every employer who has a real
and heartfelt interest in all that
is included in the three words
Safety, Sanitation and Welfare"
wishes he could get into closer
personal touch with his employees.
Of course, if to him, safety, santa
tion and welfare are merely empty
words that cover a pharisaical pre-
tense towards humanitarianism, OF
the chasing of fads and foibles, he
has no interest in the personal
touch and the employe is merely q
machine with a capacity for SC
much output per day.
But there are good grounds tc
hope that employers of this type
are becoming scarcer than they
used to be because the evidence is
accumulating to prove that the
efficiency of man to great ex-
tent depends upon the attitude oi
the man toward his job. There is
no doubt whatever that the average
man can make himself more efficient
if he wants to. How to make him
want to is the real question. He
can increase his output, reduce the
hazard, avoid waste, and promote
the general welfare if he is sc
inclined, he can be source of loss
and discomfort and an all-arounC
breeder of trouble. Which kind ot
man he will be depends to &
great extent on his attitude of minC
toward his job. Employers who
are animated by enlightened sell
interest" know this and are oper
to suggestion as to how men may
be brought into such menta
attitude toward their jobs as will
increase and not decrease Their
efficiency. The purpose of thi!
brief paper is to make such sug
gestion.
Around a mine the employe who
comes most frequently into per
sonal contact with every man or
the job is the timekeeper. 1t goe.

his position to promote efficiency
Mr.. Neill Hutchings, of the Ten
nessee Coal, Iron & Railroad Co.
in little pamphlet that is excel
lent readiug, has emphasized the
necessity of courtesy and a kindly
way in contrast to the short
brusque, curt manner that, unfor'
tunately, is affected by too many
timekeepers. He insists that the
most dense and ignorant foreigner
is entitled to courteous treatment
from the timekeeper, clerks ane
the paymaster. They are the Gus
todians of the fruits of his labor
He is entitled to receive at theil
hands that degree of courtesy ano
consideration that is supposed tc
obtain between man and man
The very fact of his ignorance and
stupidity should appeal to those
who are more fortunate in their
qualifications and should be reason
enough for refraining from that
brusqueness, not to say brutality.
that sometimes is in evidence.
1t is not good business to antagon-
ize men needlessly. 1t is good
business to conciliate and evince
toward them a manly friendliness.

record of labor done should be but

usefulness. His job is one OF

and the doctor was summoned, as it
was feared that his services might be
needed. When the invited guests
assembled in the recitation room of
the school house, the professor was on
hand with large bottle of chlorform
and sharp knife. The audience was
called to order, and the doctor re-
quested to administer to the subject

informing them he intended to dissect
the cat while it was alive under the

The Northside school will close this
afternoon for the usual Christmas
and New Years vacation. This ev-
ening pupils of the various grades
will render a Xmas program of songs,
recitations and drills appropriate for
the occasion. The children have been
working hard, under the supervision
of their teachers, on their respective
parts in the program and an ex-
cellent entertainment is assured to
which the general public is invited.

ter the collection of deferred pay
ments on lands sold, and the collec-
ton of interest on sold lands and
upon mortgages. 1t leases other
lands and collects the rentals. 1t
buys school bonds and collects the in
terest and payments when due. The
care of all these matters requires
business judgment, executive ability
and a vast amount of clerical labor.
The volume OF business done is
far in excess of that of any financial
institution in the state, and is rap
idly increasing. The work is &C
comphshed with fewer number of
employees and at less expense than
any business institution of like mag
nitude in the country.
Notwithstanding this record, the
land board desires to bring the lanc

French Will Be a Candidate

Last Friday the announcement was
made in Boise that x-Congressman
Burton L. French would become a
candidate for nomination on the re-
publican ticket for the lower house
of congress and that formal an
nouncement would be made soon.
For some time there has been con-
siderable speculation as to whether
or not Mr.. French would enter the
campaign next summer as a candi-
date for congress or for governor of
Idaho. In the last republican prim-
airy election he was defeated for u
S. senator by Senator James H
Brady.
While Mr.. French undoubtedly has
many friends over the state there is
but little question but that the Bon
ners Ferry candidate, Senator E. f
Elliott, will be a rival hard to beat
If French does get into the game il
will mean that Senator Elliott's
friends here and in all parts of the
state will rally to his support and
make greater efforts in his behalf
than if he had had the field to him.
