The Senatorial Election.

"A private note from an old
friend in Boise says: "The
senatorial Eight is gathering
fast. l never have been so un-
certain about the result as |
am right now. 1t is just posi- =
BILE that new men will have to
be taken up all around. De
Lamar is here and an effort is
being made to concentrate
those opposed to Dubois upon
him and to- bring in some dem
,ncrats. 1t is surmised that a
deal is to be made by which
Mcconnell is to sell out to
DeLamar. The democrats are
to be bought and sold like
sheep. Claggett and his man
arrived to-day, and he is in
the field to stay. Del.amar
claims % votes if he gets the
Mcconnell contingent, but it
is not easy to winnow out any
truth from the vast amount Of
chat. There is trouble in the
air, and out of it the members
may develope something for
your northern counties"
The Boise Statesman of De-
cember S says: "Indications
at this time all point to the
strong probability that the
U. S. senator's will be elected
on Wednesday next"
A dispatch of December 6,
says that caucus had been
held at which % republicans
had voted in favor of giving
the northern counties one of
the senator's. Another dis
patch says that Mcconnell
was willing to trade himself
off for the location of the Ag-
ricultural College at Moscow.
and a big appropriation for
the State University at the
same place. You pays your
money and takes your choice.
Either Mr.. Wiley or Mr.. Wei
Ter will notify us by telegraph
as soon as the result is known.
BY the way, what is the
matter that Norman B. Wiley
can't be elected as a compro-
mise candidate? Intellectually
he is the peer of any man in
the State.

The National Democrat which was es-
tablished in Washington one year ago
by Edmund Hudson, with the indorse-
ment of many Of the great leaders OF
the party, has entered upon its second
year with circulation of 10000 copies
each week. This is perhaps the largest
circulation ever attained by a weekly
newspaper during the first year of it's
existence. The National Democrat occu-
pies field of its own, and one that too
long remained untitled. 1t gives a COM
plete record of political information, in
Guiding the most important speeches
that are delivered by Democratic lead
ers in congress and on the stump. 1t is
rendering the party an important SER
vice, and should be read by all who
wish to keep fully informed in regard to
public affairs and who mean to defeat
the wicked scheme of the republican
leaders to secure permanent control of
the government, In spite Of the fact
they are. and must remain, the minor
ity party in this country. The SUBJ
scription price of the National Democrat
is 81 so per year, and it can be ordered
through the FREE PRESS agency.

We Don't liant the Northern.

The people of Camas Prairie
want to be sure they are right
before they commit themselves
to any subsidy scheme on be-
half of any particular line of
railroad. Here, for instance,
is a statement by Supt. Nc
Cabe, of the Northern Pacific,
in an interview published in
the Tacoma papers concerning
the wheat blockade in eastern
Washington. He said: owe
can't move more than 100 cars
a day over the mountains on a
single track. There is a ire
mendous grade between Taco
ma and Ellensburg, and that
makes travel hard, If that
grade was not there we could
improve things considerably.
In crossing the mountains the
grade is so great that it takes
two large engines to move a
train of ten cars. If we had all
the engines between here and
New York we could not move
all the cars over a single
track"
This is the situation in a
nutshell. The Columbia river
is the route designed by ma
ture as an outlet for the upper
country, and all efforts to force
its products over the mount
aims must be extremely costly
and to a degree futile. 1t is
plain that the Northern Pacific
cannot benefit Camas Prairie
so much as the Union Pacific
or the Hunt system, both of
which have down hill grades
to tide water on the Columbia.
But what this northwestern
country really needs more than
railroads, is an open river to
the sea, and until we get it
these freight blockades will
happen around to harass the
farmers every time they have
good crop.

AFFAIRS IN THE COUNCIL.

That Sewer Bill OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES to
Get Their wages-Other Matters.
The regular monthly meeting of the city
council was held last night, Mayor Walker
presiding. Mr.. Mckay, one of the on
FACTORS who laid the sewer last autumn,
appeared before the council to explain his
bill for s1.401 against the city. The firm,
he said, were out that much as the result
Of the city's failure TO furnish the pipe
within the specified time. The delay
forced the contractors 10 suspend work
and lay of their hands. and by the time
the pipe was delivered frost had set In,
making the remainder Of the work very
difficult and expensive. After a free dis
cussion the aldermen agreed that the city
was mt fault in not delivering the pipe as
II had undertaken TO do, and the bill was
laid over until the next meeting in order
effect a compromise with the contractors.
Mr.. Mckay said he was willing to accept
whatever the council considered fair.
Alderman Shovlin raised the point
that IL was not right that the city's labor
ers should be compelled to discount their
orders for wages. They were paid $3.50
per day and they ought TO receive every
cent OF IL. Mayor Walker agreed with
Mr.. Shovlin that the laborers ought to get
their full wages, but the question for the
council TO consider was how To remedy
the evil. There was no money in the
n fund at present, and the council was
not allowed To draw upon any other fund
for road purposes. City Clerk Boarman
suggested that the council might PASS an
ordinance borrowing money from the
sewer fund until the tax Is levied. This
suggestion met with favor and an ordi-
nance OF that character was framed. fix
ing the amount borrowed mt $500. The
dog fund, which now contains about 1915,
was also transferred To the road fund.
Mayor Walker appointed Mitchell
Pickle assistant chief of police. The APP
pointment was rejected. The mayor APP
pointed Joseph Waters a member of the
force, and this appointment was con-
flrmed. A number Of bills were allowed,
including one for Sl3. 10 for the constric-
ton Of a case for keeping the trophies
won by the Anaconda firemcn at Butte.
The mayor agreed with Alderman Show
lin. who recommended the payment OF
this bill, that IL was no more than right
and proper for the city 20 assume il, as
the firemen served without pay. The
bids for constructing the proposed fence
aroun the new ~six-acre dumping ground
were opened and found To run all the
way from Sis2 10 Si,0l5. A lease of the
ground not having yet been secured, the
bids were laid over until the next meet
ing.
