LINCOLN WOULD NEVER HAVE

There is an editorial in the Febru-
airy issue of the Woman's Home Com
panion in which the writer SAYS:
We shudder to think what the YER
diet of the efficiency experts would be
upon Lincoln. Why, the man had no
sense OF money at all and to get
the money is, of course the chief pur-
pose and end Of efficiency.
He had worked hard for an aver
age lifetime before he was elected to
the presidency. Yet at his Inaugural
ton his entire fortune consisted of
his house and lot in Springfield. and
a little wild land In Iowa, granted to
him for his services in the Black
Hawk war. A few years later he Is
reported to hafe said: L now have
about ten thousand dollars. l hone
before | die to increase it to twenty
thousand dollars, which is all the
money any one man ought to want
He seems actually to have had the
idea that money Is merely incidental
to the business of living, not nearly
so important as friendship, or a sense
OF humor, or clear conscience. He
assumed that after a man had enough
to pay his debts, and attain a reason
able degree of independence, it was
useless, and even trifle absurd. for
him to seek to pile up great for

point OF view, of course, could hardly

TO state that nothing is hampering
the development of the resources of
central Idaho so much as the lack of
good roads has become platitude.
But the lack of good roads In many
regions vast In extent is q serious
thing, platitude or not, and Senator
Brady seems fully alive to the impor-
lance of securing means for the state
to construct more highways.
The following bill, introduced by
him and twice read in the United
States senate before it was referred
70 the committee on public lands, will,
II 1t Is passed, eventually bring the
state at least $2,500.000 for road work
and probably several times that sum.
Senator Brady's bill reads as follows
BE 1t enacted by the senate and
house OF representatives of the
United States of America In
congress assembled, that there is
hereby granted TO the state of
Idaho 100000 acres of unappro-
priated non-mineral public lands
within said state to aid in the
construction and maintenance Of
public roads In the state of Idaho.
Sec. 2. That such lands shall
be selected under the Joint au-
thority of the governor of said
state and the secretary of the in
terror, and may be designated and
selected from any lands that be-
long to the United States govern
ment within such state, whether
such lands be within or without
forest reserves. The secretary of
the interior is hereby authorized
and directed to issue patent to
said state as soon as the designa-
ton thereof has been certified to
his office by the governor of said
state, and such designation shall
be made by legal subdivisions of
surveyed land and by metes and
bounds of unsurveyed land.
Sec. 3. That the said land
shall be sold by the proper au-
thOrity of said state at not less
than $1.25 per acre and under
such rules and regulations for the
disposal thereof as may hereafter
be provided by the legislature of
the state.
IL this big land grant is made and
1t would only be fair to have it 90
through because so big a part of
ldah0's area Is kept in forest reserves
and yields nothing in taxation, it will
go long way toward helping to solve
Idaho's road problems, and will also
serve to bring new settlers into the
state. To get the settlers we must
first make land accessible, and this
bill not only win give the money for
building roads but viii make possible
the sale of land at prices which should
prove attractive to homeseekers.

Mr. Jarrett proceeded up the trail
and had only gone a short distance,
when he saw, on the opposite side Of
the canyon, the biggest bear he had
ever seen and he had come In contact
with many. He only had two car
trtdges In his rife and SO hurried to
camp for reinforcements both In am
munition and men.
Mr.. Rhoades and others accompanied
him on the return trip and the mon
ster was still there nosing along the
hillside. The party approached to
within 200 yards of the bear, but it
took no notice of them.
Mr.. Jarrett fired three shots ut the
animal and where the bullets hit re-
mains a mystery to this day. His mai
esty ambled leisurely down the hill
side into the thick brush. Mr.. Jarrett
said, "he had concluded that his brand
was not on that particular bear and
he had not lost any bear" The re-
mainder Of the party said 1--WE have
kinder got the same feeling"
Mr.. RhOades and little daughter
Thelma saw the bear from a safe dis
lance. They were on horseback and
the horses were headed towards home.
Mr.. Rhoades said: 1.-THE bear was al
most white and as large as a cow
Several head of young horses, cattle
and sheep have been killed every year
on both sides of Salmon river for the
past thirty years and the stockmen and
ranchers I'm that country are satisfied
that the depredations were committed
by this grizzly. Now every one who
rides the trails In the Rapid river
country totes rifle on his saddle, but
no one seems anxious to meet the
King of the Seven Devils.
