rbe Preaideut and Mr.. blaine.

Philadelphia Press.
The American people have two con
spicuous characteristics They love fair
play, and they rarely fail in good sense.
Their love of fair play Is sufficient to
excite their Indignation and contempt for
the cruel and cowardly way in which
Mr. Blaine has in some quarters been
bounded and mlsrepresented in his rein
vigoTating reposs at Bar Harbor And
their good sense is strong enough to
save them from being fooled by the ma
Ign and persistent effort to use Mr.
Blaines illness for the purpose OF EN-
broiling the President and his Secretary
Of State or their friends
The truth about Mr.. Blaine is not hard
to ind for any one who seeks It in good
faith He was prostrated in New York,
and was for time quite ill-perheps
more III than at FIRST generally supposed.
There was no organic trouble, no consti-
tutlonal difficulty, no failure of any vital
part, nothing that baiiled care. It was
overwork, too severe tension, intense
absorption ia great public questions, q
long, hard strain from which came 9
temporary breakdown.

Apron Fair.

There will be an "Apron Fair "
given in a few weeks by the ladies
of the Cemetery Association, and
we would ask everybody to assist
in this good work. Each lady to
donate an apron made of calico,
Bingham, lace or silk, as they like !;
also ask their friends to donate.
Let us see if We cannot get an apron
from every State in the Union, each
apron to have card attached with
the name of the donors and their
address. The one who collects and
brings to the fair the greatest num-
Der of aprons will receive one of the
finest as a premium for her efforts,
the balance will be sold at the fair,
when we shall endeavor to make so
grand display of aprons, together
with other entertainments, that all
will proclaim our fair success.
Let us commence at once to write
to our friends for aprons, that we
may have the means to begin work
on our cemetery as soon as the
weather will permit.
By order of Committee.

Killed BY Inactlon.

A4o AValancne says: Oull ID the
only word which will express the
present business situation in Silver
City" Judging by the exchanges
which come to this office from
points in Southern Idaho one is
disposed to think the remark APP
plies to all of this region. There
are many improvements and en-
terprises in contemplation, which
will be pushed as soon as spring
opens, but so far as we can learn
nothing is actually doing now. In
the Occur d'Alene country a differ
ent state of things prevails. The
Wallace Miner comes to this office
every week largely filled with ac-
counts of important mining opera
tions, discoveries, purchases, sales
and other evidences of public spirit,
energy, pluck and prosperity, that
appear to be totally lacking in
Southern Idaho. This ought not
to be so. Southern Idaho has re-
sources greater even than Northern
Idaho. Her mines are as rich, nu-
merous and extensive as those of
the North. Representations made
by practical miners indicate that
the mines of this region are less
liable to flooding and can therefore
be more cheaply worked than can
the Occur d'Alene mines. Timber,
if less plentiful here than there, is
abundant here for all purposes, and
easily accessible. Water is ample.
In short every possible requirement
aud convenience for the successful
working of our rich mines except,
possibly, transportation facilities,
are at housekeeping but home
enterprise. That seems to be lack
ing. Seemingly our citizens who
have money are afraid to invest it in
enterprises that any of them would
confidently and honestly tell a cap
italist from abroad would surely
prove largely remunerative; and he
would tell the truth, notwithstand-
ing he could not be induced to in
vest cent himself.
Mossbacks waited at Silver City
for something to turn up. Captain
DeLamar went there and turned
that something up and is million
aire. Other mossbacks are waiting
all over Southern Idaho, while for
tunes are lying all around them to
be secured by energetic men yet to
arrive in the state. When they come,
whether this year or next year. or
any other year, we shall have good
times and business activity on all
hands. The basis for these is here,
and the cipital is here, but it is in
hands too timorous to invest it, even
to make more out of it, in enter
prises they are all agreed would pay.
They are all waiting for "sure
things" and. as they will discover
when too late, are losing great op-
portunities by waiting. But in spite
Of the present gloomy outlook, the
future is full of promise. The
wealth is here, though dormant, to
make Southern Idaho prosperous
as any other portion of the country.
The world needs this wealth. 1t will
pay enterprising men of capital to
develop it and make it available for
the worlds need, and they will do it..

"D1vrDENDs from $3.50 rock, " is what
we read about occasionally in our ex-
changes. But what worries our Wood
River miners is how to get dividends from
800 rock. Will some kind editor give
out this pointerl-Bs!lscue Herald.
Yes; that class Of rock will pay
$40 dividends when the miners erect
cooperative smelters and reduce 1t
at home. We have worked in a
silver mining camp when $40 rock
was thrown over the dump, and in
the same camp when $12 rock was
valuable, and it would be SO here
under good management.
