The platform heartily endorses and eulog

good demands his reelection. 1t demands
reform in taxation, so as to make, as far AS
possible, the luxuries, rather than the me-

in such manner as not to create
class distinction, promote business favorit-
ism, or breed trusts and monopolies; it
favors full government inquiry into the
causes of the present disturbed condition of
the industrial world, asks for legislation to
remove uni ust burdens from laborers and
laws to encourage and promote arbitration,
demands that congress make provisions for
the construction of a water way between
the lakes and the Mississippi river as set
forth by the water way convention of 1887,
and requests that the Sta Louis
convention make this question
part OF its platform. 1t COM
mends the action and liberal cause of
President Cleveland's administration in adj
ministering all pension laws for the benefit
of the union soldiers and their families. 1t
opposes aliens holding lands, opposes legis-

the quartz mines are supplied with

per pound are entailed in packing rock
from the mines to the settlements, an
additional cent per pound to Lewiston,
and Sl5 per ton to San Francisco, with
reduction charges added. Under this
accumulation of charges the quartz min

scratched over, and the first railroad
company which penetrates the Clear
water country as far as Camas prairie

why the construction of n railroad
there has been so long neglected is a
conundrum which the people have long

railroad from Lewiston guaranteed,
Camas prairie can raise million bush
els OF grain for export, thousands Of
tons OF timothy hay and many thousand
mead OF cattle annually, while the
cheaper freights which always accom-
panles railroad transportation would
stimulate production and shipment of
ore from thousand quartz lodges
when are now worthless on account of
the heavy freight and reduction charges.

AN AMAZING NEWSPAPER.

The New York /" World of last
Sunday, with pardonable pride, gives
an engraving of its new quadruple
press and some details of the daily
mechanical work in "The World y
Office. This new press weighs l06,-
600 pounds and is composed of
$500 pieces. 1t is an advance on
anything ever heard of before in the
matter of printing presses. 1t took
the Hoes a full year to manufacture
it. Its capacity is from 1900 to
$4,000 eight-page papers per hour,
and these it prints, cuts, pastes, folds
and counts as it goes along. The
presses in "The Worlds . press
room have a capacity Of over 200,
900 per hour, and the paper for the
Sunday World " weighs 81 tons.
OF course there is nothing like it in
the world. There may be better
daily papers, but The World . fills
a place which no other paper has
been able to, and in the magnitude
of daily work performed, mechanical
work, Of course, no newspaper Office
compares with it. Locking at the
cut of this press and reading the de-
tails Of the daily work performed in
that Office, one wonders what the

HOW TO SELECT A WIFE.

In the first place, see the girl you
intend to honor as early in the morn
ing as possible, and note whether
she is fresh and tidy or limp and
frowsy.
Watch how she treats her pets
her dog, her canary, her little sisters.
Discover what she eats and drinks,
and make yourself certain whether
she bathes or uses perfumery.
Remember if she makes habit
of walking or driving.
Inform yourself whether she dotes
upon Owen Meredith and Henry
James, or reads Longfellow and
Fenimore Cooper.
Go to church with her and see If
she cares more for the preacher than
for the Gospel.
Make sly study of her anatomy
when you get a chance.
Familiarize yourself with her
fathers affairs and her mothers tenn
per; and then, young man, when
you've found girl who is neat,
trim, true, healthy, wealthy and
wise, sail in and win her.

WEDNESDAY, FEB. 8, 1888.
LEAP YEAR.

A somewhat cynical correspondent
has written a letter against the OBJ
servance of leap year. He says that
as the result of a long experience he
has observed that the gentler sex
generally do the proposing, leap
year or no leap year. =" They do
not" he says, " come to the question
bluntIy and directly, but with the
refinement of feminine strategy they
usually lead the love making to that
point where there is no other alter
native left to the fond lover" +"
Those who see much of social life
must, of course, disagree with these
sentiments. The manner in which
the rich youth is snubbed and avoid
ed while his poorer brother is loved
for his own intrinsic worth has al
ways been noticeable characteristic
of the age. 1t is the poor but ar
dent wooer that is successful, while
the sons of the millionaires are left
in bachelor solitude. Thackeray.
once considered a master in his
knowledge of the human heart, is
just now undergoing much censure
for describing how in his day young
women sometimes used many arts
to win desirable husbands. But,
happily, the time of which he speaks
is passed and the manners change
with our more perfect age.
If leap year be abolished then it
will be because the modesty of our
maidens will not permit them to
take advantage of the innocent priv
ileges to which they have been Ell
titled from time immemorial.

1t is as big an error not to advertise,
if you have anything to sell, as it would be
to attempt to do business without having
sign on your place ofbusiness. A sign in
the newspaper is the more important.
Begin at once, while you think about
it Don't put it off and let your neighbor
"Knock the persimmons.' "Don't be a
clam, and don't be one of those "wise
men, who declare that advertising don't
pay when all the live, energetic pushing,

and country. advertise extensively and they
are great way from being fools. Don't
imagine yourself wiser than twelve men
