CHICAGO HEARD FROM.
Mayor Cregier Speaks First and Refers TO
THE Great West

Mayor Cregier Speaks First and Refers TO
THE Great Vest
Mayor Cregier, of Chicago, said that
the people of his city believed that the
exposition should be held in the Great
West He said Chicago recognized the
grandeur and greatness of the City of
New York, but Chicago believed that
she could meet every demand made by
this great exposition as well as New
York could. They did not hesitate to
accord to ST. Louis like prerequisites.
But that should not detract from the
marvel of the Western Hemisphere
Chicago. New York mad been growing
for 200 years, Chicago was only IL
years old.
IN conclusion Mayor Cregier said that
the West must be recognized. and ne be-
heved he represented sixteen sovereign
states of the Northwest when he de
manded it.
TOM BRYAN SPEAKS FOR CHICAGO.

of the various organizations in different
parts of the state show that the proposed

of sentiment throughout the United

tional exposition commemorative Of the
discovery of America. He said that St.
Louis made no sectional plea. He
tbough6 that TINS question should De
raised above the plane of sectionalism.

STANARD WANTS MORE YANKEES.
F. o. Stanard, chairman of the finance
committee of st. Louis, said he had a
laudable pride in the progress ard devel-
opment of the Mississippi valley within
the last half century. Within the 500
mile radius of St. Louis were the capitals
of thirteen commonwealths. They would
be loyal to st. Louis if st. Louis should
be made the site of the worlds fair Just
as st. Louis would be loyal TO herself and
to the nation If any other city should be
selected. He dwelt at length on the
central location of st. Louis. No one,
he said, would think of holding worlds
fair in the extreme West or the extreme
Soath or North. The actual money
guaranteed by the St. Louisians, Mr..
Stanard said, now exceeded $4 ,000, 900,
and subscriptions were coming in at the
rate of $40, 900 a day.

THE GARFIELD MEMORIAL.
IL is Now In the New York Custom House
Awaiting Decision rs to Duty,


CLEVELAND, Ohio, Jan. l3.-The Gar
field statue is in the New York custom
house. There is law permitting the
entry free of duty of monuments and
works Of art for government buildings,
but Sculptor Doyle wishes to establish a
precedent, if possible, by having it ad-
mitted purely as work of art by an
American artist without regard to the
designs for it's use. The committee in
charge Of the work have decided to
change the name from Garfield monu-
ment to Garfield memorial, the original
name being misleading, the structure
being more like building than the pop,
uiarly conceived idea Of d monument.
The body will he privately moved from
the vault to the crypt of the memorial
before long, and the dedicatory services
will be on Memorial Day. The statue,
which is eight feet tall, besides the pc
destal, will be placed in the rotunda of
the memorial.

were 100 of New York's leading citizens

came the question
WHERE 1T SHOULD BE HELD.
International expositions, he said, had
never been success, unless held ut the
metropolis of the country. Within
the limits Of what constitutes the
city of New York. you have three
Chicagos. Eight millions Of people in
the vicinity could visit the fair at New

and from that down to cents. Refer

the "chromo business" could not be a

authorizing the expenditure Of $40 .OO0,-

by law. A bill will be intro

remedy this omission in the

should have two terms each

A Boise City correspondent
of the Oregonian, in discussing
the senatorial candidates. says:
"Gov. Shoup has the indorse-
ment of many country papers
for first choice, and is quite
popular with the people, as the
returns of the late election
verify. Besides his popularity,
there is an important influ-
ence operating in his favor, land
that is the friendf Of Lieuten-
ant-governor N. B. Wiley, of
Idaho county, would like very
well to have room made for
him in the executive chamber.
To effect this Gov. Shoup will
have to be elected to the sem
ate. Mr.. Wiley is immensely
popular, and next to the gov
ernor himself obtained the
highest vote cast for the re-
publican state ticket at the
state election; is very social,
kind-hearted gentleman, and
well-liked in this city by men
of both parties. He came to
Boise last week, was sworn in

The Subsidy Discussion.

On Saturday, November 20,
the Fairview Farmers Club
will discuss the subsidy ques-
ton at the Fairview school
house. The discussion is pure
ly informal, and everybody is
invited to come and express
their opinions, for or against
subsidies. We hope there will
be a large attendance, and a
free exchange of views. We
hope to see the farmers of
Camas Prairie show a lively
interest in the subject, and
give it full consideration. If
the Fairview meeting succeeds
in drawing q. good attendance,
andif enoughinterest is shown,
the officials of the Farmers
Club might arrange a date for
another meeting at the Grange
hall some day this winter, in
order to renew the discussion
in a larger audience, and thus
learn the views and opinions
of a larger number of people.
1t is subject Of much import
ance to Camas Prairie, and it
deserves to be we'll debated
and considered before an effort
is made to accomplish any
practical result. There is much
to be said on both sides of the
subsidy question, and the best
way for us to learn what we
want to know about it is to
give it a full and free discus
sion. We believe firmly in
king Solomon's adage: ''In a
multitude Of counsellors there
is safety" fla subsidy is to
be raised it must be done by
the united effort of a large
number of Individuals, and it
is therefore only right and
proper that everybody should
be given ample opportunity
to hear the question discussed
so they can form their own
unbiased opinions and con
illusions upon the subject.
If the Fairview meeting is
successful, another can be ar.

another at Cottonwood, and

Thanksgiving.

When we compare the stu
alton of affairs here to-day
with what it was one year ago,
it will be readily seen that we
have something to be thankful
for this year. Our granaries
and barns are we'll filled with
the proceeds of a good har-
vest. Feed for stock is abund-
ant, and the grass on the range
is plentiful and good. Last
year the reverse was the case,
and the outlook was gloomy
enough. We have all survived
however, and the enforced
economies to which we have
all been subjected during the
year of hard times we have just
passed through have not been
without their moral effect on
the community, as we have all
learned to appreciate the pre-
sent season ofprosperity, when
times are really good" when
compared with what they have
