The Country Editor.

Year after year he chronicled
The little towns affairs;
The births, the deaths, the visitings,
The sorrows and the cares;
In his reports of weddings, he
Excelled-for instance, when
The bride, vision of delight"
Was made SO by his pen.
Our graduations were his forte
(Held in the Public HalD
At church picnics, "A pleasant time
Was always had by all"
Like murmured "requiescats" were
The "obits" he would write;
His daily comments kindly were,
Nor ever charged with spite.
And when the need arose, he'd fight;
Straight to the point he'd come,
And make the columns of his sheet
A true Palladium;
He'd hold the "solons" to their task
Their schemes and tricks would call;
He wished to curtail no ones rights,
But sought fair play for all.

THE FABLE OF THE WOLF.

The Beasts and Birds had lived in
peace and happiness many years, when
one day the Wolf appeared wearing a
pair of blue spectacles. From that
time on, discord took the place of
happiness, for the Wolf, looking at
the world through blue glasses, be-
came dissatisfied with everything, and
made himself as disagreeable as pos
sible. In the philosophy of the Wolf,
nothing was right, and his sourness
and narrow outlook were becoming
contagious. Finally the more con-
tented Beasts and Birds questioned
him, demanding an explanation of his
conduct.
You are not happy yourself" said
they You seek to prevent happiness
in others. Do you act from conscien-
tious motives, or do you merely act
thus. out of selhshness?"

the Wolf Il snarl and bark at every

must do likewise"

dict, I'VE might have respected you.

brand you as a Hypocrite"

The Public Paying for Disease.


1t seems eminently proper that the
nation or state should pay stockmen
and farmers for cattle slaughtered
to prevent the spread of disease.
Suppose, as a variation of this
plan, cities and villages should pay
for human lives unnecessarily sacri-
feed through failure to protect the
public health.
1t has been said that a case of ty-
phoid fever is conclusive evidence of
criminal neglect for which some one
should pay heavy penalty.
Suppose the courts should decide
that human life is worth $1O,OOO.OO
cash money, that a city must REIN
burSe the family at this rate for deaths
caused from typhoid fever when it
was shown that the disease was con
tracted by conditions which the health
authorities could control. Suppose
the courts accepted as conclusive evil
dence of public liability such things
as these:
Polluted water supply.
Existence of manure piles and
other breeding places of the typhoid

Careless sewage disposal.
Existence of privieS and wells in
communities where sewer system and
water works are practicable
Suppose a town having any of
these conditions and having, say, ten
typhoid deaths year, had to pay
$lOO0OO.OO a year for the slaughter
of humans.

IDAHO CORN CROP WILL
BE BETTER THAN EVER

The corn crop gives promise of ex-
ceeding expectations this year A
trip over the Deer Flat country the
past week brought to the attention
some of the finest corn that Idaho has
ever raised.
The Iowa crop this year is very poor
and unless they have an unusually late
year, the crop will be to all intents
and purposes a failure.
