merchant that ever made as much as
he wanted, or where IS that farmer that
ever did the same thing. More, more, is
the cry, Of all men. Now, what is the
snrest and most effective check of this
inordinate craving for more by the mer-
chant What has brought goods down
to their preaent reasonable prices I
answer competition. 1t is impossible to
conceive Of any other effective check to
the cry for mere, unless We could find a
man unlike all men in the past. Why
do patented articles always sell for more
than they are really worth? Because
there is no competition in their sale.
The patentee has the exclusive sale, and
that craving for more puts the price up.
Suppose one man had the exclusive
sale of bacon in Anderson? Do you
think itwould have been sold so low all
the yearS No competition means high
PRICES. Therefore, | would suggest that
lisswould be to the interest Of every buyer
to see to it that competition is not de.
stroyed, for to it ne must look for reason.
able prices.
If there was but one store at which to
trade, would not the owners Of that store
have the purchasers at their mercy, IA
thing too often unknown in the trading
iworld?) Selahl Drive pin down here.
Competition is the life Of trade," and
most certainly the producer of reasonable
prices. Therefore, let us encourage COM
petition. Let US not unbridle the young
,n,uls, (man's greed for gain, to our own
misfortune.
Have We not all felt the yearnings for
more? How different the feelings of the
buyer and seller. five have anything to
buy the price seems nigh, butifwe should
be selling any article how hard tits to get
what oe think il is worth. This differ.
.ence of feeling is only the practical
working Of that principle in man which
always cries for more. Do not try to ap.
ply all that is said above exclusively to
the merchant, for the same feeling per-
yades your own breast, kind reader, be
you farmer, doctor, or what else, for you
are not different from all other men in
this respect, Notwithstanding you may so
consider yourself.
How truly it has been said, "Fortune
gives too much to many, enough to
none" Find me that man who has
enough, and I'll find you a hen with
teeth. Yours, for competition,
farmers Son.
N. B.-The want of competition is the
very thing that put Jute bagging, sugar
and coffee, SO high. Acertain number of
individuals associated themselves togeth.
er and formed what We call q trust, man
aged to get control Of bagging, &c, and
way mp went the prices. III is only that
principle which pervades every mans
breast, and is always calling more.
Mans thirst for riches is very much like
the inebriates craving for strong drink.
The more you try to satisfy it the more it
wants.

THE GAME IS MADE BY BOISE.

One Of the schemes of many OF
those who are enthusiastically urging
Statehood is the removal of the Capt.
tai from Boise City after the Territory
has become one OF the stars of the
bright constellation. We did not be.
lieve it would be let out, however, at
this stage of the game. The HALEY
TIMES is the first to give it away, aud
publishes long article advocating the
removal OF the Capital.-Boise Demo-
crat.
The article referred to hardly ad
vocated the removal of the capital;
but the TIMES is not disposed to split
hairs on the proposition, because that
may be the ultimate result Of 1t. 1t
was rather for the purpose of awaken
ing the people Of Idaho to a realization
OF the fact that such a question will
come up for discussion aud decision.
There was, and is nothing in
this, to ''let out" 1t Is q question in
which every present and prospective
resident OF Idaho is interested, to. wit:
Whether the capitol shall be located
in the unheathiest locality in Idaho ;
in a place whose Inhabitants have
lacked the common prudence and
! public spirit to retain habitable, moth
! withstanding its close proximity to
the everlasting SHOWS and inexhaus
tible timber of the mountains; in q
place whose corrupt "ring" is at the
bottom of every nefarious scheme
against the peace, prosperity and
happiness of every other community
u in Idaho; in a place which became
l. the Territorial Capital only by thu
preparation Of high.handed ant
y still unpublished outrage upon th'
IS people of Lewiston and of Nortl
8 Idaho; in place that is the least &C
. cessible Of any other located within
60 miles of any main railway line.

Fairing u Ship.

The keel is laid down on blocks four
or five feet apart, which form Il slope
toward the water so that the hull may
glide down easily when the time for
launching comes. II is not keel at
all, in the sense that the word was
formerly used. A modern ship has a
smooth bottom without any projecting
ridge or break to the curve of her
sides; il is simply the central series of
plates, from which an inner keel is
built up like an enormous backbone,
and to this the ribs are attached. The
metal is delivered at the yard in the
shape of angle iron or angle steel, the
latter being the material which would
be used in Il ship Of the class we have
in mind. Heated to Il white heat the
angle bars arc drawn out of the furnace
into Il perfectly level iron; floor, upon
which they are bent to the needed
curve, and that which has been IL line
of ink in the original drawing, q
chalk mark on the floor of the mold
loft, and n groove in the surface of the
SERVE board, is now embodied in the
heavy rib Of the ship. The bending
is done thus: The metal floor is per,
ioIdlSN Will lIIOiotliluS VI IlOlCS, lulU
which iron pegs are inserted until
they form the curvature required, and
the long. pliable bar of steel is pressed
against them till it corresponds exactly
with the line exhibited in the ''scrive
board" which is always in sight of
the workman for guidance and com
parison. In handling the metal the
men use pitchforks, and, with the
prongs inserted in the holes, they get
purchase enough to make the bar
yield; if it bends upward hammer is
used upon it. Each rib has, of course,
to be duplicated with the utmost pre-,
cision in order that it shall be tho same
on both sides of the ship, and each,
after it has cooled, is laid upon the
''scrive board" and compared with the
lines thereon, every variation being
corrected before it is passed. Having
already been punched for rivcts, it is
then marked with a chiscl to show
where rib bands, stringers and deck
beams arc to lit into it.-Scribncrs
