NUMBER D
Form Highway Dis rict.

AS matter of justice let the north
end Of Clearwater county get together
and organize the 'Elk River Highway
District, as was Gone at Weippe and
Pierce. 1t would be the sort of dose
the Gilbert farmers, who are fighting
bonds, ought to have thrown in their
faces, and if there was way these
same farmers ought to sued and made
to refund the thousands Of dollars
taken from the homesteaders in Anoka
and other precincts, and used to build
a $25, 900 bridge and the expensive
grade used by the Gilbert people to
haul their crops to market. Let the
Anoka homesteaders start campaign
for an independent highway district,
as was done in the Pierce section, and
the next howl for help will not
come from the Dent homesteaders.
The Anoka road district has over one
nineth of the total taxable valuation
of Clearwater county. Elk River prob
ably has more than this. Organized
into highway district and they would
have plenty Of money and to spare.
AS one of the Anoka homesteaders
puts it, EITHER an independent high
way district or county division is ap-
pareotly our only hope for relief"

Soaked For s..

There is every indication that the
Coleman letter is copy of one mailed
generally throughout the United States
and Canada to all nonresident holders
of Clearwater county timber. This
assumption is based on the fact that
copies of this Kyle letter has begnn
to show up, one of the Sucker"
being Robt. Heinman, of New Hol-
stein, Wis. Mr.. Heinman was a
little slow in taking the bait and got
his reliable estimate" for So. That
this is true is vouched for by Mr..
Heinman who was in Orofino the past
week looking into the matter. And
Mr.. Heinman will sell Ms-ea~ estimate
for FIVE cents worth Of dog neat.

Can't Deliver The Goods.

nora Marks, writing to the
Lewiston Tribune from Boise, says:
Governor Alexander showed signs in
the past week Of smarting under the
charge that the had failed to redeem
his pledge to ''yank'' every man and
woman on the payroll in the stste
house from the basement to the dome.
He sent communication to Attorney
General Peterson asking for legal
advice as to how he could remove
members Of boards for the good Of the
service. men he had asked to resign
and who had neglected to do it,
This is just as might be expected
from this political windjammer.
During the campaign these facts were
pointed out; the people were reminded
time and again that the governor
had no power to"yank even the jan
itor of the state house. Ex-Governor
Hawley, that staunch old democratic
war horse of Idaho, poked fun at the
democratic ''one-price clothing candi-
date for governor, over his silly cam
paign twaddle. 1t is no time now for
Nose Alesxnder to try to find excuses
for his failure to ''yank" according
to pre-election promises. 1t is simply
up to Nose to 'yank, or stand con-
victed of political perfidy and the
cheapest sort of cheap and disgusting
politics.
The Clearwater Republican pointed
out these things before Alexander was
elected. We said he was deceiving
the people. Has the Republican not a
right to remind the governor of his
promises? And why should the COVER
nor now shift the burder and hide be-
hind the fact that he isn't the whole
show?
The plain truth is that Nose Alex
ander deliberately deceived the people.
He must have known he was de-
ceiving the people If he did he stands
convicted of disgusting politics. If
he did he got his election under false
! pretenses. If he did he is not honest.

cupies a space flattened like a disk like a coin or a book or perhaps, some irregular shape. lift the earth and the solar system are imagined somewhere nearthe middle of this configuration and we look out from the inside we would have a, longer distance one way than another. Now, if the stars are spread practically uniformly through out space, we would see a great many more and a greater density of stars when looking in the direction of the greater dimension. So the astronomers believ that the milky way gives a clus to the shape of the stellar universe
 The Galaxy affords a beautiful chance for the imagination. You have before you countless stars in all stages of development. Some are young and bluish white, some like the sun, others reddish and far advanced in stellar age. Why is it not possible that some where among the myriad of stars ana suns there is some system where con- ditions of development have been the same as those on earth making pos sible the existence of a life similar to ours and from which beings may even now be looking and speculating on that faraway star which is our sun :? The mind can penetrate the distance which even the astronomer and his instruments leave untouched
 Watch this month for the meteors of the Perseid shower These meteors reeur every year and seem to come from a point in the constellation Per seus. They are what is left of a comet which disintegrated in the solar sys- tenn and which had path or orbit such that it interseets the orbit of the eatrh this month
