Advice To Young Officers.

Advlce 10 IOung
Gen. Leonard Wood, who
rose from the ranks of private
citizen to be a major-general,
has volunteered the following
advice to the young officers
who have just been graduated
from the training camps and
have received their commits
sions. In the regular army
there is a wide gap between
the officers and the privates
which has made service in the
regular army unpopular with
young men of spirit. The pri-
vate has not received that con-
sideration necessary to make
him really feel his true worth
and manhood, but on the other
hand he has been made a mere
jumping jack, which moves as
an automaton, without spirit or
thought of the initiative. Dur
ing our late war between the
states the Confederate officer
set a fine example of discipline
in handling his men. There
was no unnecessary severity on
the part of the officers, but on
the other hand the men were
respected and trusted, and the
world has never seen a finer
service than was rendered by
the soldiers of the South. Gen.
Wood was raised as a civilian,
and rose to his high rank on
account of his great ability in
handling men after he entered
the army. He now commands
the Southeastern Military Dis
trict and thus advises the
young officers:
Please express to the young
gentlemen completing their course
my sincere appreciation of the good
work they have done and my best
wishes for their future success, and
say to them for me that their real
work now commences in training
men for the present great war.
.'They must always remember that,
while discipline must be strict and
the performance of duty rigidly in
sisted upon, all this can be accom-
plished without destroying the self
respect of the soldier, and that the
performance of official duty should
always be marked by s~elf-control
and courtesy. Nothing is gained
and much is lost if these are not al
ways maintained.
sThe self-respect of the soldier
is vital to his success. Destroy this
and you have a mar with a poor spirit
and consequently a poor soldier, and
an army which will never go through
to the end.
"The most cordial and friendly re-
lations between officers and men can
exist without any loss of official sta
tus or control on the part of the Of
icer. In developing the armies of
the republic this must always be
borne in mind. They must strive to
build up that feeling Of confidence
and interdependence between officers
and men, which must be present if
the army is to haye the real spirit
which will carry it on to victory and
final success, and they should always
remember that their conduct, appear
ance and performance Of duty is not
ed by every man in their commands
and, as they perform their duty and
conduct themselves in the affairs Of
life, so will those under them, in the
great majority of cases., shape their
conduct. If they want the highest
degree of efficiency, they must them
selves be in the highest degree eff
Gent. They must place upon every
man who comes under their command
the impress of duty and loyalty
Sincerely yours,
LEONARD WOOD

prevent the council from entering into

Telephone Difficulties Compromised.

II. H. Miller. of the Public Util-

day afternoon and presided at an in
formal hearing of some differences of
opinion between the Fraser Telephone
Company and the Clearwater Tele-
phone lines. The questions We're
thoroughly discussed and suggestions
offered Mr.. Miller stated that ow-
ing to the fact that the lines of the
two concerns are parallel in many in
stances and their subscribers compose
practically single community with
only seven instances of duplicate SER
vice, the situation was very pecul-
lar. A plan was finally formed for
interchange of business according to
methods which are standard practice
in the telephone business 1t is be-
lieved this plan will meet with the
approval of everyone concerned.

NUMBER 3S
The Widows Might.

Elk River Sentinel: In Clearwater
county last month there were seven
teen widows drawing pensions from
the county amounting to 1868, 33 be-
sides somthing like $50 to S75 per
month for other widows not on the
regular pension list.
These seventeen widows are not
rated as paupers and some of them
seem to have considerable property,
while others have relatives able to as
sist them.
As the Sentinel understands it. the
law does not award pensions, but
simply authorizes the county to grant
suitable allowances, all circumstances
considered. No provision is made for
an examination into all the facts al
legged in the application.
Would it not be wise for the
county commissioners to ascertain and
publish, regarding each widow who is
on the county. her age, length of res
idence on the county, number and age
of children, whether pauper is able to
work, name, residence, occupation and
financial standing of all relatives by
blood or marriage. amount allotted
and length of time paid, together
with actuarial expectation of duration
of payments? Then perhaps the COM
missioners could see their way to cut
down this drain.
The people cannot see anybody
suffer or starve if they are sick,
helpless or too old to work, neither is
it rich uncle for everybody who hap
pens to move into it and after few
years find themselves hard up.

BANKS CALF CLUB STARTS
OFF WITH G0OD PROSPECTS

The Calf Club, to be organized
by the Bank of Orofno, promises to
become big movement of great i'm
portance to this section. Thirty-two
head had been spoken for the first of
the week, which is fine beginning,
showing that the people are going to
cooperate in movement launched for
the general good of this section.
In order to give the Bank of Orofino
an opportunity to purchase the stock
to the advantage of the boys and girls
1T is necessary that those desirous Of
taking advantage of this offer get in
touch with Mr.. EIDE al once so he may
get an idea of the number of calves
the club is going to require. All or
ders for calves should reach the bank
at once. 1t is important, therefore
wake up and get busy.
The Republican hopes to see this
club start out with at least 100
calves. In five years. with such a
start, the result of this movement
would show astonishing results; the
influence of blooded cattle would
spread, making Tor the permanent
betterment of our county
If you do not understand the con-
ditions of this club, get in touch
with the Bank of Orofno at once.
There is no catch. nor is the bank
prompted by any ulterior motive.
The boy or girl taking calf thru
this club gets all the profit from the
calf or calves they raise. The Bank
of Orofino is SIMPLY assisting the
club members in getting start. 1t
is laudable enterprise, one that has
worked satisfactorily in other places.
1t will prove of great benefit to this
section-if our boys and girls have
the courage to avail themselves of
the opportunity, and their parents
have the foresight to recognize big
opportunity when it is presented.
If you haven't boy of your own bor-
row one. Encourage some bright
boy OF girl in your neighborhood to
join the Calf Club. Do it now
The opportunity closes February Is.
Don't wait.
