This is one of the richest and in
some respects, the mos, attractive, but
least known Of The territories Its
elevation is from 1000 feet above the
sea level in the lower Snake river val
ley to 10000 on top of its mountains,
large part lying above tho altitude OF
1000 feet. The higher parts are bro
ken up into ranges, in many places
very steep aud rugged. Below these
are high, rugged hills, upon which nu-
trltious grasses ere found, aiiording
vast pasture lands. Still lower are Ia
bic or ''sagehrush" lands, rich in soil,
and, when properly irrigated and ,ul-
tivated, producing large crops of ce
reals, vegetables and various fruits.
The mountains usually are covered
with forests OF pine, fir aud other tim
her. Of swift noble rivers and deep
placid lakes, Idaho has scores. Snake,
Salmon, Clearwater, Boise, Kootnai,
Bear, Raft, Weiser, Payette and Ma
iade are clear, strong streams, worthy
of their home. OF the total area of
5S, 22S, leo acres, about 10000, 900
are arabic, 25,000,0o0 pas ure land,
100000 timber land, and the rest
consisting of ninerallands, inaccessible
peaks and lava beds. The capacity of
soil and climate for wide range of
productions may best he judged from
the fact that not only do all the ce
reals and vegetables that grow north
of the cotton line in the east flourish
here, but Idaho fruit is pronounced
very superior. Fruit trees and vines
grow very rapidly.
The long dry Summers, abundance
of sun light, warm, sandy soil, with
perfect under drainage, aud the plen-
tltnl water supply, afford all condi-
lions for the rapid growth of orchards
aud vineyards. Mercury rarely falls

Wood rivers. This is a good country

on the public domain. Dairying, stock

Business success.

Success is attained only by wise, pa
tent, pains taking perseverance. The
man who would build up an honor
able an successful business career must
see to it that the foundations are well
/ laid One rotten timber W II bring
the whole fabric down a wreck There
must enter into its construction rigid
principles Of honor, integrity, self-de-
NAL and truth. With these founda-
tions, labor, and courageous persever-
anoe will do the rest. Many of ou,
business youth fail to consider the
price they have to pay for success
That which costs nothing we regard as
yaIueless, while that which is the
product OF toll and danger is rated at
high price. Illustrations Of this truth
are all around us. There are being
continually brought into the market
rare and beautiful wares that are be
ing invoiced at almost fabulous prices.
Ignorant people ronder why they are
rated SO high. The simple reason is
they cost so much to obtain. That
luxurious shawl labeled $1,000 was
procure by the adventurous hunter,
who, at The hazard Of his neck brought
down the wild mountain goat out Of
whose glossy hair the fabric was
wrought. Wonder pearl that flashes on
the brow of the bride is precious, be
cause it was rescued from the deep at
the risk of the pearl fishers life, as be
was lifted into the boat half dead,
with the blood gushing from his nos
trils, Wonder erminc flung so care
lessly over the proud beauty's shoul-
der cost terrible battles wi Polar Ice
and hurricanes. All clio C st things
are reckoncd the dearest, And 50 in
the business life sketched out by
young men, this sine qua non of toll
and patient, pcraevering labor should
be accepted, and with the whole heart
believed in, Like the half fabulous
and haiftruthful story of the Indian
river whose rcceding waves leave u
golden deposit, so each declining day
of Industry should leave g.ldcn I'D
dition of in creased energy, hope end
determinations For such well
planned end governed career there
cannot fail to be bright and honor
able issue. A consistent, full-orbcd,
upright mercantile life is like the in
creased outflow Of a noble river. It's
birth place some secluded fountain un-
der the messy rock Cool and clear
i steers is modest path ripping and
leaping to its own silvery music. For
a time we may lose sight Of it. Then
we meet 1t again, no longer wayside

When one who has lived beyond
three score and ten years has ended
HES journey, 10 are accustomed to
say she his sslived the full measure
Of m earthly life." But when one
has passed on beyond four score
years, there arises in the mind of
every right thinking person, q spirit
of inquiry rs to the manner of such
. life andthe marvellous developments
in 1 new country like ours that such
q one has witnessed. :
Mrs. Mary Williams, who "passed
over the river" on the 26th Of Janua-
~, 1851, was born in the State of
Pennsylvania, Feb. 9Th, 1898. She
Was, therefore, ut the time Of her de-
mise. nearly SO years Of age. Hav-
ing spent her childhood in her native
state she moved with her parents to
Ohio when about "A years of age.
She resided in that state until her
marriage with David Williams Cher
maiden ma ne raj the same as that of
her husband, though they were not
related) when they became citizens of
Kentucky. About rs years ago the
family located in Audrain county,
Mo. Here they soon formed many
friends and we're. known as an ex-
ceedingly happy couple, who were
greatly loved for their consistent pie
ty and Cody walk. The husband
who was called to his reward some
six years ago was a highly esteemed
member Of the Methodist church,
while the wife held with kind and low
ing filmness to her principles as a
Baptist.
For these six years of her lonely
widowhood, she never forgot her
Christian duties. She was like one
who stands at the portals waiting for
the return OF loved ones, or looking
for q messenger to bid her come to
the prepared home. The waiting, at
times, seemed long, but patience and
faith triumphed.
The daughters and son of this de-
parted saint, most of whom live in
this county, are we'll known to our
people and have the sympathies of
hosts of friends in their irreparable
loss.
She has s'finished her course and
kept the taith," and henceforth the
crown is her glorious reward.
