How a Loon keeDs Warm,

| have been preparing the skin Of a
loon. l now understand how loon
keeps warm and enjoys life even in
icy winters. His white vest is lined
with double thickness of fat, stitched
and quilted in among the roots OF
his feathers in an amazing way.
The warmth inside cannot get GU,
and the cold cannot get in. How
huge are his muscles, aud how stou,
his bones! He is at tho same time a
sternwheeler aud sidcwheeler, for
under water both feet and wings play
their part. His outfit is perfect fol-
his business.
was astonished to find nothing in
his gizzard but gravel stones aud mud
and bits of roo!s-not trace of or.
ganic matter. Yet he seemed in good
condition, aud the men who set the
net declared that the night before his
death he was several times heard to
laugh. If any ono suggests that a
looms laugh does not mean enjoyment,
what, let me ask, does it mean? ]
will entertain any suggestions
Meanwhile shall believe that loon
can laugh and be happy on all empty
stomach.

4 DISCOVERY OF NO PRACTICAL
VALUE.

The discovery Of Robert LANG, Of
Boise, that paper can be made VI sage
brush, Is not strictly one, as wood
paper has been known to the trade for
years. Nor, unfortunately, is it likely
to prove very profitable, since all the
sagebrusb in Idaho would hardly
suffice to keep paper mill going enc

gather that almost any other raw

To the Editor of the TINES:
Another winter is passing away in
much the usual manner on Les. River,
and as the days brighten each in turn
presents the same unvarying success
sion Of clear sky and bright sunshine
which for month past has been a
prominent though by no means an
unusual feature of our winter climate.
We have about foot Of settled
snow on the ground, but as tho i'm
preston here is that heavy snowfall
during the winter presages good
crop season, there would be no serious
objection If fresh installment should
come later on, especially since every-
body has an abundance of hay and
grain which they cannot dispose of
otherwise than by feeding their stock;
and SO far there is no necessity for
that.
The roads are everywhere we'll
broken, and the sleighing is excellent
Our ranchers seem to have thrown
of the lcthargy which has heretofore
possessed them during the winter
months, aud instead of sitting down
"like knot on log" and "cussing"
the country and the bard times, are
going to work with will to improve
each shining hour as 1t passes.
A public enterprise. for which the
people OF Island district deserve much
praise, is the new schoolhuuse which
now stands completed; aud moreover
it is decidedly the best school
building in the valley-an honor aud
credit to the neighborhood. 1t is
to be regretted that we have a few
citizens here-and they are among
tho weaIthiest and best established
whose souls are too small aud whose
instincts are too narrow and selfish for
them to contribute even the least mite
to anything in the way OF public im-
provement. Lost River, however, is
not alone in that respect, for "'twas
ever thus" and probably such people
are to be found in every community.

return to these principles necessary,
The platform warns the people of
the dangers Of the policy of Federal
control Of elections to which the Re-
publican party las committed itself.
The so-called Force bill is denounced
in the severest terms.
The Republican party has declared
that its success in the coming cleo
tions will mean the enactment of the
Force bill and the usurpabion Of des-
potic control over elections in all the
States.
The platform invites the support Of
all citizens who desire to see Consti-
tuition maintained in its integrity, and
pledges the Democratic party, not
only to the defeat of the Force bill,
but also to the relentless opposition
of the Republican policy OF protliguted
expenditure.
The tai if plank reiteratss the doc
trlne that the necessity OF the Gov
eminent is the only justification for
taxation. The enormous additional
imposition Of the existing tariff falls
with crushing force upon our farmers
and workingmen. and we demand
such revision to the tariff laws, az will
remove the iniquitous inequalities,
Tighten impositions, and put them up
on a constitutional and equitable
basis. BY making reduction of taxes
it is not proposed to injure any do
mestic indus tries.

the eliminating ~atrocity of class
legislation and the efforts Of tho pres-
ent Congress to modify its most op-
pressive features, are enc orssd.

increase in farm mortgages during
thirty years restrictive taxes, and, the
platform continues, We denounce the
policy which fosters no industry 90

Reciprocity as practiced by the Re.
publican party is denounced as q
Snam.
The platform declares that trusts
are the acknowledgements Of pro-
hibltive 5axeS, which prevent free
competition.
The platform charges the Republi.
car party with giving a " ay the public
lands to railroads and on-resident
aliens. :
The silver plank denouncss the
Sherman Act Of 1890 ss @ cowardly

use Of both gold and silver az the

The Free Wool Agitation.

The handful of New England wooden
manufacturers who have petitioned
congress to make foreign wool free, but
to keep the duty on foreign woolen
goods, have been guilty of a piece of
astounding folly. Their expectation
that the House OF Representatives,
with it's 14O free trade majority, will
remove the duty on wool, which pro-
tects the wool grower, and MAINTAIN
it on the manufactured article to help
the manufactures is without the slight
est foundation in fact or common
sense. Evidently they have forgotten
Henry Watterson's declarations that
"the keystone OF the arch OF protec-
tion is wool" and that "the Demo
cratic party is q free trade party or it
is nothing" The Democratic free
traders of the South and West will
assursdly not vote to make wool free
without voting to put wooden goods
on the free list also. The seltishness
of the manufacturers we have referred
| to is as amazing as their folly. They
have put themselves on record as urg,
ing the ruin OF the wool growing in.
dustry OF the United States while Jeal-
ously insisting that their own business
shall remain protected. They have
shown that they care nothing tor the
farmers who raise sheep; their sole
concern is to get foreign wool cheap
and increase their own profits.-New
York Press.

Prices of Farm Products.

II the farmer will carefully study the
changes in the market price of all farm
products by comparison OF the
farmers price and the manufacturing
price, or in other words the price on
the farm and the price at the factory,
he will see what an advantage manu-
featuring states have over those which
are purely agricultural. The manu-
featuring states during the past year
have been paying an average of 81
cents for corn, 95 cents for wheat, 60
cents for rye, 35 cents for oats, 60
cents for barley, So cents for pota-
toes, and SLIPS per ton for hay;
while in the agricultural states the
average price for the same period was
for corn 25 cents, wheat GO cents, rye
"a cents, oats 20 cents, barley 40
cents, potatoes 25 cents, and hay
$3.50 per ton, being an average ol
about so per cent in favor of the
manufacturing states. 1t cannot be
said that the cost of production in
Pennsylvania is any greater than it il
in Wisconsin, taking these two states
as examples, therefore the compari
son leads the thoughtful producer il
1 this investigation to clearly see anC
understand that the farm needs tn,
factory in order to secure the bes
prices.
