A Chance for the Ballot Box Suffer-

A Chance for the Ballot Box Suffers.
Perhaps the best solution of the
problem of the fate OF the ballot box
suffers is to be found in the ticket-of-
leave law, providentially passed by
the last Legislature.
1t is, of course, ridiculous to treat
the question of their moral guilt as
doubtful The Supreme Court de-
cision removes the last reasonable
chance of their escape from the legal
responsibilities through some loop
hole in the law. 1t is simply idle to
suppose that the Court of Errors will
reverse the decision ratified by the
Supreme Court, and it is cruel in any
one to advise the unfortunate men to
prolong the agony of suspense by any
further legal contention.
II the guilty men should now man
fully confess their sin and show a
proper spirit of repentance, they
could probably throw themselves on
the mercy of the Court of Pardons
with every prospect Of lenient con-
sideration. They would be released,
we believe, at the earliest session of
the court at which the cases could
come up. and SO they would have an
opportunity to rehabilitate them
selves as honest men.
We believe public opinion would
approve this disposition of the case.
The great victory for reform was won
when they We're validly con-
victed. Vindictive punishment
will not further the public in
terests. Onthe other hand, however,
public feeling cannot be softened
towards them il they persist to the
end in a contumacious and defiant at
titude against the law. 1t is only
through confession Of their error and
profession of sorrow hat they can
earn or deserve mercy either at the
hands Of the courts or their fellow
citizens.

Colonel Toffcy's Aspirations.

The New York MdH and Express
had a letter from Trenton, yesterday,
describing a boom which has been set
on foot for Colonel John J. Toffey for
Mayor of Jersey City. Why the news
should come from Trenton we do not
exactly see. when 1t is matter of com
mon gossip on the streets of Jersey
City.
1t is well known that Colonel Toffey
Is DESTROYS OF the Repub hcan
m~ayoralty nomination, and a
very strong effort is being made
by intelligent and influential Re-
publicans to give it to him.
This. we understand, is the true in
wardness of the reorganization move
ment which was the subject OF one
or two newspaper articles last month.
Colonel Toffey and his friends deny
that General Sewell is taking any
part in the movement. but the Hail
and Express makes this the pivotal
fact in the whole movement, claiming
that the General visited this city a
few days ago and discussed
the matter with the Republican
leaders. Probably the local leaders
would deny this statement, whether
true or false, from prudential motives.
The appearance Of the Camden lead
er's fine Italian hand in the deal
would not tend TO make it popular.
But, in spite of the denials. We are
pretty well satisfied the Nail and Er-
press is well informed, and the Gen
eral, If he is not directly engineering
Colonel Toffey's boom, has at least
given it his formal appreciation
Colonel Toffey is a candidate not to
be despised by his opponents. He has
a pleasant personal record, and the
prestige of previous victory at the
polls in this county. 1t is, Of course,
very doubtful whether any Republi-
can can be elected to any Office in this
city if the Democracy is true to itself.
But we do not at this moment think
Of any Republican who would come
as near success as the ex-State Treas
urer. Certainly an active campaign
is In prospect for next spring, If he is
to be in it.
THE principal obstacle in the way
OF Colonel Toffey's candidacy, apart
from the strong Democracy of the
city, will, of course, be the treachery
Of the Erening Journal, which will
have more than ordinary pleasure in
stabbing the Colonel in the back.
The Colonel is the pet aversion of DIR.
Pangborn. Mr.. Joe Dear, and the ex-
Rev. police editor. Whether his
party will think it prudent to put him
in the field in the face of the active
enmity Of this precious trio may be
doubted. Though, perhaps, they
may calculate that. as in former cam
paigns, the Journals influence will be
imperceptible in determining the re-
suit.

Whole denominations of Christians

have personally known several in
stances; or when retained, it is con-
stantIy explained by the parties con-
cerned, or even by clergynen, as a
thing to be taken with a mental res
ervation. Two things have con-
tributed to this-the constant in
crease in the number of women who
earn incomes of their own, and the
vast progress of the higher education.
Either of these experiences very soon
expands the wings of a strong feml-
nine nature, and a return to the chry-
sails is t~nenceforth impossible. 1t is
out of the question to give woman
equal education and equal property
rights, and yet keep her in the pros
trate attitude she occupied when her
earnings belonged to her husband,
and when the law denied her the safe
guard called "beneiit of the clergy"
on the ground that it was not suppos-
able that she could read or write

Lovely Lady Macdonald.
The part that Lady Macdonald
plays in her husbands life is not to be
set forth in a few words, says The
Ladies' Home Journal. All that Lady
Beaconstield was to the Conservative
Premier of England, Lady Macdonald
has been, and is, to the Conservative
Premier of Canada. If any one on
earth knows his mind. it Is she. Their
understanding of each other is com
plete, and their matrimonial felicity
unruffied. How much Canada owes to
Lady Macdonald for the help she has
given her greatest statesman, only the
Premier himself can fifty estimate.
The wife of the Premier is a fire.

lament, the best seat in the Speakers
gallery being always reserved for her,
and no important debate takes place
that she does not follow it to the final
vote, though the daylight may be
dimming the electric lights.
Lady Macdonald Is tall and tawny.
with warm tints glowing in her
cheeks. Her abundant hair a few
years ago became white as snow, and
now makes a wonderfully becoming
aureole about her high, broad fore
head. Energy and determination are
Enthusiastically stamped upon a coun-
tenance whose habitual expression is
somewhat grave. Yet when moved to
laughter. the whole face lights up
until every trace of care aud anxious
thought vanishes from it. In the art
of conversation she has nothing to
learn. She is an omnivorous reader.
and not only reads, but digests and
assiinmilates her reading, while a re-
tentive memory keeps at command
all that she acquires. She forms her
own opinions about the subjects of
the day, and never hesitates to ex-
press them in clear, concise terms.
To the full extent of her time and
ability she co-operates in all re-
ligious and philanthropie enterprises
and associations that commend them
selves to her approval. Neither does
she hold aloof from balls, dinners, re-
ceptions and other fatiguing features
| of social life at the Canadian capital.

interest in the fascinating subject of

Yet no n Of them fails to receive q
warm clasp of the hand, a bright, ap-

that b hostess is quite as glad to see
them as if they were the only callers.
With a dozen in the room at once, the
most of them utter strangers to each
other, Lady Macdonald will contrive
to keep the ball of talk rolling so mer-
rily that all feel they have a share in
the concern.

have been telling him the Shorthorn
bull, Duke of Grangeville S579l, vol. SO.

will say without fear of truthful contra
diction, that he is one of the best bred
bulls on this coast. His sire, Kirkliy-
ington, Duke of Kent75S0I, is absolute

sale for So 10000, and his dam, 4th
Duchess of Kent, was purchased by my
friend Col. l.. O. Swopa, of Independ

cows in the United States but was one
of the best individuals he ever saw.

From the Teller.
Dan McElwee. an old time citizen OF
Lewiston, died in this city Thursday
last and was buried Friday, He was
II years old.
During the past week an epidemic OF
mumps has spread rapidly among the
school children. Many are quite i'll
hut none seriously. Some of the first
attack ed are again in school.
The new Roller Mill began operations
on Tuesday of this week. The machin-
cry works like a charm. Much steady
running will be required now to fill or
ders already in and supply the increased
demand.
There is slight delay in the artesian
well project, owing to The fact that the
firm contracted with have had a serious
break OF machinery, in a well being
bored near Moscow, and they will not
be able to reach Lewiston within a
month or more. A Walla Walla firm
has been written to and the chances are
that contract will be let with other
parties within a week.
Private advices from Dayton last Sat.
urday assert that the Hunt lines con
template a completion of their road
from Dayton to this place during the
summer. The Hunt line has Just fallen
into the possession of the Northern
Pacific supervision and they wish con
nection with the Spokane & Palouse at
this point that the produce of this Sec
ton may have more direct route to
the sea. 1t is thought by many here
that the most available route from Day-
ton would be by way of Asotin creek.
The project is causing considerable ex
element at Dayton, and is thought
there to be practically settled. 1t will
be of immense benefit to Lewiston. Civ
ing direct route to the markets on the
coast. Hunt had in view an extension
of his lines not only through this place
but up the Clearwater as we'll, connect
ing with some trunk line east. This,
no doubt, will ultimately follow at no
great distant day.

Come rally to your standard now in this gi-
gantic strife
Then well go marching to victory.
CHORUS:
| Hurrah, Hurrah, our banner is unfurled
| Hurrah! Hurrah! Its moving proudly o'er the

The tyrants and the robbers from their places
will be hurled.
As we go marching TO victory
Come join the brave Alliance boys, and help
the cause along;
Our battle is for Freedom now, against q
giant wrong;
We never will give up our homes to such
thieving throng,
AS we go marching to victory. CHORUS
We are fighting old monopoly, and the gigan-

They've taken all the corn and oil left us tho
cob and husk;
But when we get our ballots in, you'll hear
their bubble burst,
AS we go marching to victory. CHORUS
The promises they made to us. not one was
ever kept;
But around the tree of liberty. the sneaking
tyrants crept;
They thought to blight our heritage while
quietly we slept
But well go marching to victory. CHORUS.
They gobbled up our greenbacks then issued
out their bonds,
Then made us pay the interest, to support q
thieving throng;
And when we made objections, they told us
we were wrong;
But we'll go marching to victory CHORUS
They've taken all our land estate and claimed
1t for their own;
While husbands, wives and children are left
without home;
And willing hands to foreign lands, in search
of work must roam,
Till we go marching to victory. CHORUS
The bankers rob the farmers, and the railroads
steal the land;
And in their cursed robbing schemes they
both go hand in hand;
They think our business is to obey, while theirs
is to command;
But Wen go marching to victory. CHORUS.
We've trusted the republicans, and failed to
take a trick
Wen try the knights and farmers now, and
then you'll see how quick.
Wen go marching to victory. CHORUS
And now we stand united, the bosses best
look out;
With faith and honor pitted wen put them
all to rout;
And with an honest ballot now, wen turn the
rascals out,
As we 60 marching to victory. CHORUS.

Stock are doing fine.
Spring work commenced
Can almost hear the grass grow.
Messrs. Paul, Lamb and Coyer will
enclose their entire ranch this spring.
There will be considerable fencing
done in this ghborhood this spring.
Owing to the Harrison administration
and the mckinley bill" we look for
nne crops this year. All's well that
ends well.
good time to break prairie now;
put In the plow aud turn the sod; put
your trust in natures God" and be rea-
dy for the railroad when it comes.
Now is good time to invest in real
estate on Camas Prairie. Those fellows
who sell too cheap will live to see their
mistake.
AS the country settles up we must
farm better and raise better stock. If
you are In debt you must dig and work
Don't give up and whine. This world
Is largely what we make it.
Idaho county, brought to a high state
OF cultivation, ought to produce for
export:
5000 bushels of wheat;
300 900 bushels of barley;
3000 bushels of oats;
10000 bushels of potatos;
100 900 tons of hay;
4.5O0 head of hogs;
1000 head OF cattle;
1000 head of horses.
Talk about there being nothing for
railroad to do. Give us a market and
transportation, and see what we can do.

Washington and Idaho, when the mists
have cleared away.
