FRIDAY, FEB. 5, 1909.
The public is still waiting for
that arc light at the depot. Isn't
it about time the city or the rail
road or the lighting company did
something about it?
The question now agitating the
members of the Idaho legislature
does not seem to be so much
"who struck Billy Patterson,"
as who gave G. W. Thompson
his state land lease,
P. L. Orcutt, formerly proprie
tor of the Troy News, has pur
chased an interest in the Star
Mirror at Moscow and will devote
his attenoions to that paper in
future. With Pete at the helm
of a democratic paper the repub
licans can expect some glorious
rippings up the back between
now and the end of the next
campaign.
The local option lobbyists at
the stste capital thought they
had things coming their way with
a rush late last week when the
local option bill passed the lower
j house and was sent up to the
; senate. This body, however, in
! troduced a measure of its own
(much milder than the house
; measure and from present indi
cations the first named bill is
! destined to die a slow death in
'some committee's hands, while
! the senate bill may eventually
i become a law.
Having become tired of kicking
a large size job press and turn
ing a big cylinder press, after
several years of such labor, we
have lightened our labor and add
ed to our printing facilities this
week by attaching power to both
presses. This will enable us to
handle our work much more
rapidly and to better advantage
and we now feel safe in saying
that we have one of the best
equipped offices of its size in the
; state. We are in shape to han
ble all classes of job and poster
I work with neatness and dispatch
and our prices are right. Call in
j and see us when you have print
ing to be done.
Parents do wrong in keeping
their children hanging around
j home, sheltered and enervated
by parental indulgence. The
eagle does better. It stirs up its
nest when the young eagles are
able to fly. They are compelled
to shift for themselves, for the
i old eagle literally turns them out,
Mrs. Cleveland and Mrs. Harri
son, widows of two of our late
presidents, have been granted
free postage for the balance of
their lives by congress. Wouldn't
this be a graft for some of the
post card fiends.
Why don't the business men
of Cottonwood get together and
induce some electric company to
extend a power line to our city.
With the power that could be
sold here it seems to us as if a
line here would be a paying prop
osition.
The answer to "when is a wife
not a wife" is usually "when she
is divorced," but this does not
seem to cut any ice with the Cal
ifornia courts, which have de
cided that the divorced wife of
Frank Abbot, who is now married
to a second husband, is still wife
enough of Abbot to collect her
share of $50,000 left by an uncle
to Abbot and his wife and child.
and at the same time tears down
all the feathers from the nest.
Tis this rude and rough experi- 1
ence that makes the king of birds
so fearless in his flight and so
expert in the pursuit of prey.
It is a misfortune to be born with
a silver spoon in your mouth, for
you have it to carry and plague
all your days. Riches often hang
like a dead weight. Yea, like a
millstone about the neck of am
bitious young men. —Ex.
Indian Summer.
A dark blue haze hangs heavily ^
Upon the distant hill.
The fields are clothed in Autumn brown,
The air seems hushed and still,
A slender, silv'ry, lovely stream,
The rocks all covered green with moss.
Where oft' in June and April we
Can see a muddy brooklet toss.
The spreading fields of golden grain—
The harvest days are over,
And barns are filled for winter days
With hay and grain and clover.
The ring dove, pheasant and the grouse,
. The deer, no danger heeding,
In quiet peace with mate and flock
In fern and meadows feeding.
Zip—Zip-and Zip again;
Cones! A squirrel in yonder tree,
The noisy, chattering little elf,
A pile of cones below I see.
Oh, happy quiet Autumn days
Of rest and joy and pleasure,
We cherish them iu memory,
A precious.gladsome treasure.
Knoll Meadows, Idaho.
A Bit of Idaho History.
It may not be generally known,
but it is nevertheless a fact, that
a newspaper was printed at Lap
wai, twelve miles from Lewiston,
in 1836. The first mission was
established there in that year
and this brought about the publi
cation of the newspaper. It was
the first press and type outfit set
up on the Pacific coast north of
Mexico, thus giving to Idaho the
honor of having the earliest press
on the west coast.
The first mining excitement
which really brought permanent
population and settlement was
that of the Orofino stampede of
1861 and '62, which resulted in
the location of Lewiston, Pierce
City, Florence and Warrens. A
year or two later these gold pro
spectors swarmed further south
into Boise basin where rich gold
placers were discovered and
which led to the removal of the
state capital from Lewiston to
Boise in 1864.
