We wish to call the attention
of the citizens of this city to the
new pike on Pine street; it is a
beauty, and we feel proud of it.
We also want to call attention to
the fact that the City Council
have been doing some good work
in the way of filling low places
and holes in all of Main and
Depot streets; this is the main
thoroughfare of the city and we
are glad that we have a council
that can so arrange the finance
Of the city so that they each year
have money to repair and keep
up the streets, and to make eX-
tensions where needed.
Our City Council have so ar
ranged matters. after paying
$1,000 per year for fire protection.
$500 per year for lighting the
city. $l653 per year for payment
of the City Officers and Jail fees.

well attended and many subjects
of public interest were discussed

the town and its surroundings

would try to make legislation do
what nothing but education or
experience will accomplish. Suca
laws are always broken and thus
is generated adisrespect for good
and necessary laws. If a law
was passed today prohibiting a
man having ham and eggs for
breakfastit would be a safe wager
that he would have ham and eggs
for breakfast for 364 days out of

The Limit in Prohibition.

Oregon has new law intended
to make prohibition of the liquor
traffic stronger than a steel-and-
concrete trench defended by gat-
ling guns, says the Arlene, Kan
s@s, Chronicle. If liquor is i'm
ported from another state, woe
t. the man who dareS drink il!
He is obliged on receiving the
liquor to sign an affidavit stating
that it is to be used only for sac
ramontal purposes. An Eastern
Anti-Saloon league man, COM
menting on this situation says:
Please take note the slips bear
ing the signed oaths of liquor re-
ceiyers must be filed with the
county clerk and that he must
treat them rs public records, al
lowing access 10 them at any
time. Now, what Anti-SaloonerS
propose to do is 10 keep consult
ing those records, follow them up
and see what each receiver of
liquor has done with it lit will
not be hard to find out whether
he has used it for sacramental
purpoSeSl and, in case he has
violated his oath by drinking the
liquor as a beverage, prosecute
him for perjury to the limit of
the law and let him rot for a few
years in Jail. Do you think that
will hold Them" In contrast
with this statement by Mr.. Trent
comes the Benton County (Ore)
Courier which claims that the
prohibition law of that state con-
tains a little joker. 1t seems
that each family has been limited
to "A gallons of beer and 2 gal
Ions of whiskey per month. The
family could get along with this
much water, says the Courier,
IF it would use the beer to battle
in"

MUSTN'T TOUCH" r

Remember when you were a
little tad. or taddesS, and your
mother or father pointed out
something to your little eyes and
sud: Mustn't touch? Of
curse you remember it. You'll
never forget as long as you live
DOW those very words threw a
cloak of mystery around the OBJ
iect that you Mustn't touch, "
and how that phrase started the
determination in your mind that
you WOULD touch.
The other day a mother took
her two-year-old baby to call on a
neighbor. The first thing the
child noticed in the room was the
glare OF the fire in a stove. She
pointed at it and said, in her
childish lisp:
Pity"
Mustn't touch, baby" warn
ed her mother, drawing her away
from the stove.
Then the mother turned to talk
with her friend. The very first
thing the baby did was to touch
the hot stove. The Mustn't
touch" command of her mother
only whetted her curiosity and
MADE her touch the stove. But
she burned her hand and learned
through experience not to touch.
The other day the mother of a
boy in town here made some
pumpkin pies. AS she placed
them near a window to cool she
saw her young son looking long
ingly at the steaming pies.
Mustn't touch she warned,
shaking a finger at him. Then
she left the room. The first thing
her son did was to grab one of
the pies and eat it all. He be-
came very i'll.
He learned, through eXperienc,
that he shouldn't eat too much
pie. The Mustn't touch" warn
ing had only made him all the
more curious.
Men and women are only big
boys and girls. They have almost
the same thoughts and identically
the same aversion to the phrase
Mustn't touch" Only in the
realm OF the big boy and girlhood
it isn't a mother or father who
says Mustn't touch" but some
law, framed by a zealot who

Editing a Newspaper

Editing a newspaper is a pleas

If subscribers want to bawl out
anybody the editors the goat.
If the town is tagging behind
and people won't get out and
make things hum-its because
the town paper is on the bum.
If business is bad-it's because
the editor wants too much money
