However, we will say.at this time thut tho petsonol haired enter tained by Mugeo and Ferguson against us is not shared in bv a largo majority of tho people of Teton coun ty. Wo have lived hero for tho past ton years; probably uo other one indi vidual bus a lurgor acquaintance among the residents of this soction, and duriug our residence hero we huve mudo many warm, personal friends. Wo have also boon fortu nate enough to make some hitterene inies—enemies who will stop at noth ing to crush us—would oven resort to perjury, aud briug false charges be fore a prejudiced justice of .the pence iu a vain attempt to frighten us into leaving tho stato, as was done at Du- puyor by as rotton o bunch as over disgraced any community by their presence, The pooplo of tho county know tho story und.wo aie willing to abide by their verdict. It is very 'gratifying to us to knowtb it wo have enemies of that description and wo smeoroiy hopo they will ¡dwuys ro- muin ourouemios. It is also gratify ing for us to know that we liavo friouds »ho are friouds—and wo siucoroly hopo our deportment will bo such they will always remain friends. On tho other hand lot us look at Mr. Fer guson for a few momouts. He has boon in tho county but a few short months. IIo enmo from God ouly knows whoro, but bad a reputation »hen ho struck the couutry aud he bus been utldiug to it oyery day.* Ho was picked up by some of tho good people of Shelby and staked to a fo v fonts of typo nud a Washington hai. l press, aud blossomed out forthwith as au editor. Ho has been going fro .t bnd to worse over since. It reminds ns of a tale told of an individual who found by the roadside a tondor infuut' of an animal resembling a kitten. In pity ho picked it up, dropped into his put ket and carried it homo. In time One Lot Ladies W aists at 2 5 per cent. discount. One Lot Ladies’ Waists at 3 3 1 - 3 per cent, discount.

It trembled away in catlike cadences and roso again like tho wail of a hound in distress. Again it arose iu mellow tones not unliko tho wind dallying over tho month of au empty jug Stopping long enough to tuke wind, she arose slowly to her 'tiptoes, aud with gyrating arms aud heaving chest gave a fair imitatiom of tho roar that foretolls a Dakota blizzard. It is tho first time our town has beau visitod by a genuine calliope and wo hope sheTl comonguiu.” Attoruoy Gouernl Douovau has given it us his opinion that tho present hoard of county' commissioners do not have the power to uppoiut tho sTipor iutuudoul of schools. At tho roceut election Mrs. Brown, tho democrat candidate, aud Miss Rebecca, Acton, republican, wore tied for this oifiee with fdld votes each, but tho attorney general decides thero will bo no racauey until after tho expiration of tho present* iucuinbout’s lorm. This will lonvo tho appointing to tho in coming board, and as two of them are republicans, it is probublo Miss Acton will bo chosen. It is very unforluuato for tho poo pie of the stuto ihut the republicans will not have control of both brauchcs of the logislature at this coming sol - siou. The senate being democratic, wo may look for tDom to block legis laturo whenever it may bo to tho utlvautago of tho democratic party to do so, without regard to the interests of the peoplo. Much needed legis lation will undoubtedly bo killed be- n cause of this one fact. * * I f* I X * * The presidout’8 message to con gress will bo found iu this issue iu supplomontform. Tho message is an able state paper, treating in a master- ful maunertho many important issues boforo tho Ainorican public today, ft will pay you to read it. curefully. Notwitbstauding the rhetorical gem in tho last issue of the Independent, the fact remains that Forg showed himsolfjto bo anything but the brave soldier, cultured gentleman and honor able citizen ho profosses to be when ho caused tho arrest of Baldy Smith aud had him put uuder $500 bonds to keep the peace, simply because Baldy threatouod to oven up matters with would-be oditor for slandering him through tho columns of his alleged newspaper during the recent election. Aud again, after the required bond had been given, Forg showed himself (o bo tho coward and bully he really is when he callod Baldy into a public resort in Shelby, nud, in company with a few other half drunken com pnnious, abused aud insulted him shamefully, Ituowmg that tho stroug arm of tho law, in tho shape of tho peace bond, would protect him from tho thumping ho so richly deserved. p g ? 4 For the first tune since 1869 the post office department will uso Ui» American flag us ono of its designs in the now series of stamps. This will bo a part of tho two cent stamp which will hoar little resemblance to the on» now in use. The flag design that ap poured in tho issue of 1869 was a part of the thirty cent stamp, of which tho majority of pooplo rarely saw. It is not necessary for anyone to remind Forg that the election is over. With Shelby republican for the first time in its history Ferg probably knows how much “ice” he cuts in Teton county politics, ‘ and it is not necessary to remind him of the fact m W) % PATRONIZE HOME INDUSTRY When looking for the Best, ask for GREENHOOD’S OVERALLS!

Tho happiest man iu the world is the common, every day chap\ who makes his own living pays his own bills and has the respect of his neigh bors. He saves a little money as he goes along but he doesn’t try to get a cornor on the local output, and he is a ¿lave to neither ambition or society. He never expects to wear out tbe seat of his pants in tho senate, and when he slides iu his clothes in the morning he never wasts auy time trying to pick out the right tint of sox, suspenders and neckties that will blond with the general effect. He wears a “ biled” shirt when he feels like it, and when his pet corns begin to jump he whips out Lis jack knife aud cuts a four inch gash iu the side of his hoot and noth ing is said about it in tbe papers. He has au appetite like a cyclone and he never has to sit up nights to poultice his (conscience. He* believes ¡in the doctrines of live and lot live, whence encounters one of the needy hedoesa’t stutter with his pocketbook. The plain plug of a man is happy because, he is satisfied aud doesn’t spond the best of his life in yearning for some thing about four sizes to large for him.
