T HE SOUTH.
Noble Utterance from the New York
Herald.

I1tIdIti Oh --Iu. J
Mr.. Henry ". Grady never uttered
sentence which better deserves a
place on his monument than the fol
lowing -
This hour little needs the loyalty
that is loyal to one section and holds
the other in enduring suspicion and
arrangement. Give US broad and
perfect loyalty that loves and trusts
Georgia alike with Massachusetts,
that knows no South, no North, no
East, no West, but endears with equal
and patriotic love every foot of our
soil, every State in the Union.
These words were part Of the
Boston speech which at once gave Mr..
Grady deserved prominence. That
, they represented the sentiments of a
New South and and a New North
standing shoulder to shoulder is plain
from the fact that they were greeted
with deafening applause when uttered
and are now chosen for a place on
the monument which was yesterday
unveiled.
We are told in sneering tones by
partisans in this section who have no,
yet adopted the spirit Of these word:
that the Confederate flag was Haunted
in the parade. 1t is argued, there
upon, that the whole South is still on
horseback and marching toward Wash
ington.
Every traveller who has wandered
over the plantations beyond the Poto
mac, and studied the people who live
there, know that the South Couldn'I
, be dragged or driven back into the
old regime of slavery. These are
better days than those from every
point OF view, socially, politically anC
commercially. These are a pleasant
dream, those were a nightmare fol
we had conflicting interests then, but
now We have common country and
a common purpose.
/ But the struggle, while it lasted
was tull OF herOlSm on both sides
Everything was staked on the hazard
by North and South alike. Since we
won the day, it is all the better fol
us. Since they lost the fight, it is al
the better for them. But they cannot
forget the sacrifices they made, and
we should think less OF them if trey
could. Their flags may indicate q
local pride in the courage of thei1
sons and fathers, bat you may have
noticed that above ali other flags or
this grand occasion lioated Old Glory
to the breeze, and SO long as that hold:
its place the lips OF criticism are dumb
Let them honor their dead, even thei1
dead cause, as seems to them best
They and we are one and we are botl
glad that it is SO.

THE SOUTHERN (?) EXPOSITION.
Let Its True Character Be Understood
SO That no One Will Be DiSap-
pointed or Deceived.


The Southern States engaged in the
Raleigh enterprise design that it shall
be permanent exposition, illustrative
OF the resources of the South, to which
II or IS States send eNhibits-perma-
nent at least until January, 1902,
when 1t Will be removed to Washing
ton city or Richmond, or remain, as
circumstances may govern, until 1895,
when It will be taken to Chicago and
made a part OF the Columbian diSply.
1t is suggested that Maryland ought
to capture the exhibition for 1902 and
set 1t up in Baltimore, and supply at
fractions which would draw this way
large and steady stream of people
from all sections of the country.-Bal-

New York newspapers assure us that
there will be more Northern people in
the South this year than ever before.

NEEDED LEGISLATION.
Baking Powder Bill Passed by the Minnesota
Senate.


Senate.
The recent newspaper discussion of
the dangerous qualities Of ammonia
comes from the alarming increase of its
use in baking powders. People who
absorb it In small quantities from day
to day suffer from slow ammonia pois-
oning. Taken internally in sufficient
quantities it eats away the coatings of
the stomach and intestines and causes
death. Slow ammonia poisoning pro.
duces various forms of stomach trouble.
Not one woman in ten thousand
would use an ammonia baking powder
ii she knew it. Such powders not only
undermine the health. but ammonia i'm.
parts sallow and blotched complexion.
Following is the bill recently passed
by the Minnesota senate. It's the dam
ger signal which the law throws out for
the protection of the people:
a Biu for am Act to Regulate the Traffic IN
Baking Po,oder.
Section Amy person who shall
knowingly sell or procure the sale, or
oHer Tor sale OF any package or can of
Baking Powder, containing any ammo
MIA in it, not distinctly, legibly and du-
rably branded, ped or mark ed in n
conspicuous place with the words i'm the
English language This Baking Powder
contains Ammonia" in letters of great
plea, or any letters equivalent thereto in
length, shall be guilty of q misdemean-
or, and punished by fine not less than
$50 nor more than $50; shall be confin-
ed in the County Jail not less than ten
or more than twenty days or by both
line and imprisonment, at the discretion
of the court.
Section 2.-The sale or offer for sale
of the substance mentioned in the fore
going section in packages not stamped,
marked, branded or labelled as therein
required, shall be prima- facia evidence
of knowledge of the character of said
substance, on the part of the person so
selling or offering for sale and his EN-.
ployer.
Section 3.-This act shall be in force
on and after its passage.
NoTE.-An incident occurred in the
house when the senate bill came up for
passage, in reference to an amendment
proposed by Mr.. Diment. This was op-
posed by several members. Mr.. Feig
said that if the bill as it came from the
senate was all right then the anend-
ment was all wrong. The amendment
compelling the printing of the word
Ammonia" on the label only affected
the Royal Baking Powder, and no won-
der they felt the senate bill was a blow
at them.

The First National Bank of Lewiston.

BY reference to the notice to stock
holders In another column it will be
seen that the First National bank Of
Lewiston is paying forty per cent. div
idend. The stock holders ought indeed
to be grateful for such a showing. 1t
seems but short time since the editor
of the F. p, in his capacity as associa-
ted press correspondent at Lewiston sent
over the wires the first message an
nouncing to the world the organization
of this institution which has since pros-
pered SO amazingly that its title Is more
familiar in our mouths than the pro-
verbal "household words" The bank
has other claims to consideration beside
its big dividends to its stock holders.
Depositors and the general public will
be interested in learning that this bank
is now from all government reports the
strongest in the state, and the ninety
sixth in strength out of 3,400 national
banks in the whole United States. Its
stock holders are among the wealthiest
in this state and California. Their COM
bined wealth is estimated at fully ten
millions of dollars.
The bank was organized in 1888, but
it only fairly began business in the
spring of 1884. Its business has more
than doubled within the past twelve
months. It's connections are the besl
and most extensive of all the banks in
Idaho, and its management, being emf
nently safe and conservative, has raised
it to point where its reputation is fully
equal to that of the best banking insti.
tuition in these northwestern states
In short the First National bank o.
Lewiston is a credit to the town anc
state, to the people and country which
supports it, and to the management
which succeeded by its integrity in en-
listing the confidence and support O.
the public in it's business methods.

The state Board Of Eaualiza,ion.

This illustrous body, in the language
of the poet. catching it in the neck
and curses both loud and deep are being
flung at them from every county in the
state, Idaho county included. All sorts
Of infamous charges are charged against
the board Of partiality and favoritism,
even by the republican press of the
state but we do not see how the board
can be justly charged with anything
else than an honest desire to administer
the law as they find it. 1t is idle to
charge them with fraud until fraud Is
proven. 1t is their province to equaliss
values as between counties, taking Into
consideration distance from markets and
facilities of transportation. The board
claims that this has been done as nearly
as it is possible to do SO. Land was
raised 20 per cent. in Idaho, Nee Perce.
Latah, Washington and Bear Lake coun-
ties: in Oneida county land was raised
Al per cent; in Boise county land was
reduced 10 per cent. No other changes
were made in real estate. In Shoshone
county only 1000 acres belong to indi-
viduals, and 10000 to the N. p. r. R.
All sheep are uniformly assessed ut
80. so per head all over the state. The
only raise in horses was in Idaho coun.
ty, where they are raised 20 per cent.
Cattle were raised 10 per cent. in Bing-
ham, Custer, Bear Lake and Washing
ton. Cattle were reduced in Idaho aud
Logan counties 20 per cent, and In AL.
turas county 10 per cent.
The assessment of sheep Is excessive.
and we have a shrewd idea that this
high tax was imposed ON sheep in order
to PROTECT the profitable industry Of
cattle raising, by banishing sheep from
the state. This is good republican doc
trine, but clearly unconstitutional, for
the organic law of the land emphatical-
ly guarantees the Free-est kind Of Free
Trade between the states. The raise on
horses in this county is also excessive.
as that class of property steadily depre-
ciating. The decrease in cattle aud the
raise in horses should have been reyers.
of affairs in this county. But as a mat
ter of principle we object to having our
taxes increased by state officials. AS a
democrat, we believe in self-govern.
ment by the people of the several coun.
ties through their own county officers.
We believe that the assessors and COM
missioners are better judges of the val.
ue of taxable property in their county
than dozen boards of state officers.
The law under which the state board is
acting gives them arbitrary and despot.
ic power against which the people are
not even given the poor privilege OF
entering legal protest against it's ex-
actions. 1t nullifes the powers of the
county governments and centralises the
taxing power in the hands of the officers
of the state government. Nothing but
a legislature of republicans could have
enacted such law, aud we ought really
to be thankful that the state board had
the moral courage to enforcs and thus
show to the people its obnoxious fes.
lures on the first test Of It.
