A Unique Fernery.

In the main glass covered building In
the Botanical garden, amid all the
wealth of tropical plants, Mr.. Smith, the
superintendent Of that department Of the
annex to the Agricultural department
proper (Which is kept up as a govern
mental source for bouquets and bouton-
aires for senators and members), has ar
ranged carved stone fernery that has
history, and it has also given him some
trouble to explain its history, at the ex-
pense of his character for truthfulness.
When the old senate chamber doors
were taken down the superintendent of
the Botanical gardens had the stone arch
above one Of the doors removed to his
main conseryatories, where it was placed
contiguous to an artificial pool of water
or fountain, and made mantel for ar
borescent plants that for effective beauty
surpasses nature herself. Unfortunately
In a jocular moment he told some one
that the stone mantel was a relic from
after wives and daughters of senators,
members and others interested in the
antiquaries bothered him almost unto
death for its unique history.
Withal its history, as having been the
arch Of door of the American senate
chamber under which walked Webster,
Clay, Calhoun and galaxy of manhood
whose equal the Acropolis and Parthe-
non never encompassed, should make it
sacred, as simple fernery, as a part of
American history. Washington Post.

Let every working man think of this:
Last year there was imported into this
country $3.50, 000 900 worth of goods, of
which at least 900, 900, 900 worth could
have been produced here. II it had been
produced here there would not have been
an idle man in this country. Much of
these goods imported were produced by
convict labor, in Europe. The Mckinley
bill provides simply that they shall keep
these products of labor at home, and that
hereafter the American workingmen shall
produce all that is possible to be produced
here for the necessities of the American
people.

RAILROAD PROSPECTS.
If the People Raise q Liberal
Subsidy they sciH Hare the
Road Nert Year.

The recent railroad demon
stration in Lewiston has de-
veloped the fact that if the
Clearwater basin is ever to be
blessed with the Northern Pa
cific railroad the inhabitants
thereof will have to put their
hands in their pockets and do
nate a handsome subsidy to
that corporation. 1t is, of
course, very small business for
a strong and wealthy railroad
company to extract blood
money from the people of this
country, but as the people of
Lewiston and neighborhood
appear willing to be bled, and
as there are undoubtedly great
and commensurate advantages
to accrue to everybody from
railroad connection, it seems
on the whole rather a sensible
thing to hasten the railroad
era by subscribing literally of
our substance to bring it here.
The Lewiston delegation,
who interviewed the railroad
magnates in Spokane Falls,
stated that the citizens of Lew
iston, Tammany and Waha,
would give ten per cent. of
their last years assessment as
a bonus to the first railroad
company that built it's road to
Lewiston. This, however, was
only a verbal promise, and the
result of the interview was
that the railroad magnates told
the Lewiston people, in plain
English, to return home and
open subscription papers, have
everybody give every cent they
could, and when the country
had been closely canvassed, to
send the result to the railroad
people, binding themselves to
give so much in hard cash, so
much in right of way and so
much in depot facilities. If
the company accepts, they will
have the road built to Lewis
ton by January l, 1891, and to
Camas Prairie next year. Thus
the matter stands at present.
Mass meetings are to be held
in Lewiston and Tammany,
and it will be well for the peo-
pie of Camas Prairie to study |
the situation and get ready to |
cooperate with the Lewiston
people. At the proper time
meetings will be called at
different points on the Prairie,
in order that an expression of
opinion on the part of the
people may be had, and plans
devised for canvassing for sub
scriptions, &c.
The editor of the FREE PRESS
accompanied the Lewiston del
egatlon to Spokane Falls, and,
as will be seen by the reports
of the speeches published else
where, did not permit the rail-
road officials to forget the fact
that there was a very large
and important scope of coun-
try back Of Lewiston that was
well worth the occupation of
any railroad company, inde-
pendent of any subsidy. Up
on behalf of the people of Ida
ho county, however, he volun-
teered to give them right of
way across the county, eighty
acres of depot and terminal
grounds in Grangeville and
not less than twenty thousand
dollars in cold cash. 1t is
either put up or shut up.
