The Cooperative Spirit.

One can always tell when the
real cooperative spirit is abroad
in a community by the attitude of
the people toward each other.
When you find gossip and scandal,
where you learn from one neighbor
just how bad the next neighbor is,
where the churches are pulling
and hauling and the school is in
an uproar, there cooperation does
not and can not exist, no matter
how many clubs or societies for its
promotion may be organized. BY
the absence of these things, and by
the presence of wholesome desire
to give the square deal, not in bus
mess only, but in life's social re
lationships as well, one may recog
nize the presence of conditions
that render cooperation pos ible

Village Bonds
Coming Due
The Sinking Fund.---Electric Light Con-
tract.---Other Matters.

What to do with the sinking
fund was one of the matters dis
cussed at the meeting of the board
OF trustees Monday night. The
water works bonds, amounting to
SI2, 500, issued in 1906, are re-
deemable at the option of the
village at the end of ten years, and
last years tax levy provided for
raising $1,000 to start sinking
fund to pay off the bonds or rs
many of them as possible when
they become due. This $1,000 is
now in the trea sury and it is the
desire OF the board to place the
sum at interest until it is needed.
The expiration of the ten year
electric light contract between the
village and the Rathdrum Electric
company after May IS, was also
discussed.
The board also talked over some
improvements at the park, the
near delinquency and disrespect-
full conduct of some school chill
dren and other matters.
No business was transacted
| further than allowing the bill of G.
K. Sparks, labor, $Io. IS.
The clerk reported warrant
drawn Feb. IS for $40 in favor o
the Rathdrum City band for Feb

Switches Needed, There has been
considerable speculation as to just
what the administration would do
with the obstreperous democrats who
joined in the flibuster against the
shipping bill, and lent their aid to
other measures In opposition to the
president. A good many people at
the national capital thought they
could see trouble ahead for the
factionists In the democratic party,
but Indications S are that the olive
branch hangs on the mantle at the
White House and will be used In

been no disposition on the part of the
past congress to pass law redeeming
this hope on the part of some of

reason that no one In congress has

The thirteenth Idaho Legislature I
adjourned at $50 Monday night,
having served since last Thursday
overtime without pay in order to
clear up the mass of legislation
which had been allowed to accum-
ulate up to the legal termination of
the session, March a.
The senate and house, which |
had been at loggerheads managed
to compose their differences over
the appropriation bills, which were
finally passed with cuts sufficient
to make saving of about $3.50, 900
over the state expenses of the
previous two years.
The educational budgets as ap
proved carry S687, o9o; the general
appropriation bill, s61o, 173; the
judicial budget $3.50, 900; the gen.
eral deficiency act, $52,437, and
charitable and penal institutions,
$363, 900.
To meet these expenditures an
ad valorem tax act was passed to
raise 81, 500, 600 for the years 1915
and 1916. 1t is believed the reve-
nue. from the federal government
and from the sale of lands, ETC.,
added to the amount raised by the
ad valorem tax will be sufficient to
meet the expenses of the biennium.
Reductions of 10 per cent were
made in salaries of heads of state
departments and subordinates.
Important bills passed in the
final rush included an act creating
a bureau of accounting to check
all state departments; raising the
bond of the state treasurer from
$500, 600 to $3.50, 600 and making
the bond of the deputy state treas
urer $50, 900, and an act making
ineligible for Office any official who
spends more for his department
than the appropriation authorized.
The closing hours of the session
were marked as in former years by
scenes of revelry, as relaxation
from serious business.
Bills passed aud sent to the COVER

Once upon a time a man oppressed
with grief,
A man that ever wavered,
Hanging 'twixt hope and fear,
Laid himself down in prayer
Before the altar in a church.
And thus he thought and said:
Did | but know | should hold on
unto the end
And, as he prayed. he heard holy
voice within him say,
"If you knew it,
What would you do?
Do now just what YOU would resolve
to do,
And then you will be safe
consoled and strengthen
