The Reason why.
Youths Companion

A noted Sunday-school worker, living
in Kansas, was once asked to talk to the
children of Sunday-school on the SUBJ
ject of temperance. He is very earnest in
the cause, and wears bit of blue ribbon
as badge of his principles. Rising be-
fore the school, he pointed to his bit Of
blue ribbon and said: "Now, can any of
you children give me reason why l am
not drunkard?" There was no reply
for moment; then childish little voice
in the rear of the room piped out
''Cause this is prohibition town"

triable by jury, and the objection,
was, or is, properly taken, and for
that reason the judgment should be
reversed, still new trial should be
granted. The answer to this may be,
that the proceedings in the Court be-
low, were under the act in question,
and if wrong, 1t is because that part
of the act on which they are based,
is invalid, and no valid Judgment
could be had. That while the action
in its present form cannot proceed,
amendment changing it's nature and
purpose is not authorized by law.
We are not called to decide that
poiLt. There is no intimation of a
purpose to amend or change the pro-
ceeding in any way, even if allowa-
BILE. The term of Office of the de-
PENDANT expired in January, 1889,
and we see no purpose which could
now be reached by any proceeding of
this nature.
All that part OF Section 53G, of the
act entitled, An act to amend Chap
ter 30, of the code of civil procedure,
being Sections 534 to SAP inclusive"
approved January 80, 1885, begin
ming at the words "and such action, "
in the fourth line thereof, to includ-
ing the words, "a civil action" in
the eighth line thereof, must be de-
clarcd unconstitutional and void; and
the judgment herein must be re-
yersed.

Two plucky Trainers.

A dispatch from Washburn, Da-
kota, to local paper, says that M.
A. civilians and his brother Tom
Williams, trappers, few weeks ago
went mp the Little Missouri trapping.
The second morning after they went
into camp they found their traps had
been visited and the game taken out.
Next night Tom remained out to
watch for the thieves. In the middle
of the night his brother was awakened
by several shots, and sprang out of
bed in the cabin to see Tom fall
across the doorway a corpse. G. Fifteen
Indians came.up and opened fire on
the survivor. Williams protected
himself as well as he could, opened
fire on the Indians with two heavy
revolvers, and according to the dis
patch managed to kill eleven of the
Indians when the other four fed.
Williams, although severely wounded,
managed to bury his brother and
drifted down the river in boat to

IDAHO NEws; The decline of
American farmers is matter of seri-
GUS import, and the News looks at it
with the gravest apprehensions. The
time was when they were leaders So
cially, financially and politically, but
that time has passed and apparently
forever. Long years ago farmers
sons constituted the majority of stu
dents in our colleges and universities !:
farmers were in the majority in State
legislative halls, and even in Con-
gress, but they do not make up those
majorites now. In the first years of
the national government Presidents
were taken from the ranks of farm
ers, but they are not to-day. The
first President was farmer and the
nine following were either farmers
or identified with farming interests,
but there the number ceases. TWEEN
ty-nine years ago, 1860, the farmers
were in the majority, and, according
to statistics, owned the larger part of
taxable property in the country, but
what do statistics show to-day?
While they have added about six
billions of dollars to their wealth the
other classes have added about thirty
billions of dollars to their wealth the
other classes have added about thirty
billions in the same length of time.
The number of farmers is decreasing
and the value of their property, as a
rule, is decreasing even at a greater
rate. In the State of Illinois alone.
the great farming State, 100000
acres of land have been put under
mortgage within the past six or eight
years, and the value of those lands
have decreased about rs per cent.
This mortgage system and decrease
IN value is common to all the States.
Why is it? Yea, let every farmer
ask-why is it? Then again, in po-
htical circles are not only ignored in
the distribution of offices, but their
votes are not sought for as in other
days. Politicians will speak of the
necessity of getting the labor vote,
the temperance vote, the railroad
vote, the Irish vote and so on, but
they never lay any stress on the farm
ers' vote. We repeat, this is a matter
of serious import, and it is well for
the people to find out the causes that
have brought about the decline.
+e~-
Fifty thousand population inside of
five years from this date is the lowest
estimate that any person fixes for
Spokane Falls, says the Review,
while enthusiasts ridicule this idea
and say that figure will be reached
in less than two years. If the in
crease continues at the present rate
the latter prediction will be fulfilled.
At all events this is now the greatest
city between St. Paul and the Coast,
and nothing can check its growth.
1t is the metropolis of the inland en-
pire.

Epoch.

The transition from long, lingering
and painful sickness to robust health
marks an epoch in the life of the in
dividual. Such a remarkable event is
treasured in the memory and the
agency whereby the good health has
been attained is gratefully blessed.
Hence it is that so much is heard in
praise of Electric Bitters. So many
feel they owe their restoration to
health to the use of the Great Alter
alive and Tonic. If you are troubled
with any disease of kidneys, liver or
stomach, of long or short standing
you will find relief by use of Electric
Bitters. Sold at SOC and 81 per bot
