THEIR BUSINESS BOOMING.

Probably no one thing has caused such
general revival of trade at Pattersons
drug store as their giving away to their
customers of so many free trial bottles of
DIR. Kings New Discovery for COnsump-
ton. Their trade is simply enormous in
this very valuable article, from the fact
that it always cures and never disap-
points. Coughs, colds, asthma, bron-
chitis Group, and all throat and lung dis
eases quickly cured. You can test it be-
fore buying by getting trial bottle free,

and intelligent public opinion to assert
their power. Both are practically detied
by the attitude to which that contest has
been brought.
Whatever wrong there may have been
in the inception OF the trouble. the laws
of the land and the public welfare are at
tackled when any men OF set of men pro-
ceed to the length of declaring that they
will enter a mill and take out by force the
hands who go to work. Unless the re-
ports have siandered the strikers and the
reports of such threats appear to come
from sources friendly to them-they have
arrOgated that power. This is destruct-
i've alike of law and liberty. There is no
protection for any man and no liberty for
labor, if a self-cOnstituted body of men
can exercise the right of prohibiting a
man from working or of threatening
force if he disregards their prohibition.
The strikers have the right to use peace
able arguments to persuade others not 70
accept reduced wages; but they should
understand that they can not uSurp the
power of forbidding work; this could not
be allowed in free land.

Statehood For Idaho.

The bill introduced in the House
Wednesday by Chairman of the
House Committee on Territories
Springer, providis an enabling act
for the admission of Arizona and
Idaho as states. The people of the
two territories are authorized to
hold elections on the Tuesday after
the first Monday in November,
1889, for the election of delegates
to a constitutional convention to
meet the first Wednesday in Janu-
airy, 1890. The constitution framed
at these conventions are to be voted
npon by the people of the two pro-
posed states on the Tuesday after
the first Monday in November,
$3.50, and if majority should be
found in favor of ratification au-
thority is given each territory to
form a state government, which,
however, shall remain in allegiance
until the respective state constitu-
tons shall be approved by con-
gress.

COMMENTS ON THE BILL.

Referring to the high license bill,
it is certainly to be hoped that most
of the provisions of this bill will be-
come a law. The Register does not
believe prohibition prohibits; but it
is in favor of high license, and be-
lieves every man engaged in the sale
of liquors at retail, who desires to
keep respectable house, believes
in and is an advocate of high. IL
cense, but there are objections to
this bill. We do not believe in
charging the man who sells less
whisky than quart 81. 900 year
for a license, and allows his next
door neighbor, who also keeps a
few boxes of canned goods, some
flour, sugar and bacon, to sell ten
times as much whiskey and pay no
license at all, except the small per
cent. he pays on the amount he
sells.
How many drug stores are there
in the territory who carry liquors
for incidentally use, and sell more
liquors in quantities less than a
quart than perhaps any two saloons
in the same town? We would like
to see the drug store in Idaho that
keeps liquors and sells as much in
a month purely for medicinal pur-
poses as in one day for drinking.
We believe in regulating the man
or firm who sells liquors in quanti-
ties of over quart to pay the same
license that the saloon does, drug
store included.
We do not, however, believe in
hampering mans business, and |
endeavoring to make it disreputa-
BILE by requiring that he shall have
the sanction of majority of the
precinct endorse him. Make the
business as respectable as it is pos
possible to make it, and respectable
men will engage in it. Make it all
open and above board Eagle
