The Kootenai herald. [volume] (Kootenai, Idaho) 1891-1904, 1893-11-04

THE assassination of Mayor Har-
rison, of Chicago, will emphasize
the necessity of constant protection
to men in high, political positions
in this country. The crank's bull
let loves shining mark. Our
unwise immigration laws, which
makes of America a dumping
ground for the scum of the world,
is responsible for these Anarchistic
disorders. And the germs Of the
disease having been bred into our
social structure, our officers in high
places will need that bodily protec-
ton that is found necessary in 9th
er lands.

The Hard Times.

Senator Hawley says the American
people are peculiarly prone to distrust
and suspicion, and they question ev.
erything. They doubt even the evil
dence of their own senses. This is
probably one reason for the panic that
is now on. With gold coming over from
Europe, with silver in small quantity
being shipped to Europe, with most of
the railroads of the country earning ex-
cellent dividends, with good fruit and
crop prospects for the country in gener-
al and with no important election to
disturb the even current of finances, yet
bank after bank closes its doors, wheat
and silver have been lower than ever be-
fore, and stocks have gone down till they
are out of sight, that, too, although the
substantial ones are paying their divi-
dends as regularly as if they were worth
200 per cent.
1t is boldly claimed that bear speculat-
ors for their own purposes have fostered
and inhamed the native distrust and sus-
picion of the American disposition and
are working it for all it is worth, while
they shrewdly buy in property after
property to sell it again when times get
good. Their Vaccinations can only be
met properly by the optimistic spirit
which is determined to wait little till
the clouds roll by and then pick up and
go on again as though nothing had hap
pened.

SENATOR DUBOIS ABLE LEADERSHIP.

The following tribute to Idaho's
gallant young senator is taken from
the New York Press Of Oct. %.
Coming from that hot bed of gold
buggery, New York City, it is all
the more remarkable:
In the midst of all the loss of
dignity, one of the youngest mem
bers of the senate has given to his
older colleagues, who are supposed
to conserve both the dignity" and
the courtesy" of that body, a most
distinguished example The bear
ing Of Mr.. Dubois of Idaho, the
scholarly and honorably ambitious
Yale graduate to whom has been
intrusted the leadership of the re-
publican silver forces in the senate,
has combined during all this long
battle, aggressive hrmness with the
the most elaborate courtesy. Pro-
voked as he has been at many times
by the malignant assaults of the
administration senators, at war as
he has been with a majority Of the
members Of his side Of the chamber,
subject as he has been to the most
severe criticism by Mr.. Voorhees,
and other veteran senators on ac-
count of his youth and inexperi-
ence, Mr.. Dubois has acquitted
himself with an energy and tact
which have both surprised and
gratiied his loyal followers.
Mr.. Dubois has not only repre-
scented his own constituency ably,
but he has given form and express
ion to the claim of the silver men
that their cause has never yet
been passed upon by the people at
the polls with a vigor which has
had no little to do with effecting the
possible compromise. This compro-
mise may be one for which Mr.. Du-
bois cannot vote; but he will be able
to present a record of battling in the
face of tremendous odds for a cause
in which he believes with an OBJ
stinate gallantry which could rec
ognize no defeat.
The proposition to expell Mr..
Dubois from the senate for refusing
to vote has never been considered a
serious one. 1t has afforded the
pretext for at least three days of
discussion upon abstract parlia-
mentary questions, but upon per-
sonal grounds his expulsion is be-
yond the barriers Of possibility.
Mr.. Dubois is not only one of the
most popular, but one of the most
highly respected members of the
senate among his colleagues, des-
pite his youth and agressiveness.

The day after the repeal bill
passed and became a Law silver
dropped from 70 to IS cents an
ounce, in New York, and wheat
took an even greater tumble, but
the New York bankers were not OBJ
served to disgorge to any percept-
able extent. Gold has appreciated
in value just to the extent thai
wheat and silver have deprecated
and perhaps that was the effect
the gold-bugs intended the law
should have. But what is a little
matter like that as compared with
the blessed privilege of being a 10y
al party man that you may march
close to the band wagon and whoop
'er up for those good old boys, Ben
jamin and Grover. May these
good old days of New York finan-
ciering knock a little sense into us.

S. D. TAYLOR, Editor and Proprietor.

THE unconditional repeal Of the
Sherman law should prove an I'LL
innate blessing to this part Of the
country. 1t should serve to open
the eyes of the voters and cause
them, hereafter, to vote for their in
terests. So long as the West
whoops it up for Wall street states
men, so long will the West be left
in the soup. When men cease to
let prejudice and passion control
their votes, instead of their inter
ests, then the common country will
see better times.

They are claiming almost as much for
the new compound litho-carbon as used
to be claimed for aluminium. They say
it makes a paint impervious to weather
or barnacles; that it can be applied to
cloths and will make them absolutely
waterproof and cause no odor to attach
to them, as india rubber unfortunately
does; that it can be used in japan coating
or paint which heat cannot crack or
blister, and that iron bridges, roofs and
other exposed iron and steel surfaces
vanished with it will never rust. Fur
thermore, it makes perfect insulator
and as such will be valuable in electrical
industries Finally, if you bend an iron
surface that has been vanished with
litho-carbon-though you double it over
fiat across the middle-this wondrous
new varnish will not split off or even
show any crack. We could be induced
to believe the rest of this fairy tale per-
haps, but we draw the line on that last
statement.

There "a considerable TO Think about in
the papers on journuiislA contributed to
The Forum BY Messrs. ). w. Keller.
president Of the New York Press club,
John GSilmer Speed and G. R. Miller. cd
itor Of the New York Times.
Mr. Speed has selected for his Is .dc,
DO the Newspapers Give the News"
No, they do not, in effect answers the
writer, more particularly the New York
newspapers. He says, IF the New York
newspapers ever recorded history accu-
rately and with any appreciation of the
significance of the events occurring,
they do it less now than heretofore, for
everything is SO covered with the millin-
cry Of sensationalism that none but the
wisest can detect the truth beneath"
Mr.. Speed may be taken as authority on
this question perhaps, for he has lived
i'll New York long enough and contrib
uted matter enough to New York jour
nails to know what he is talking about.
These papers now out Chicago even the
Chicago journals in the amount of Cos
sip and scandal they print, he thinks.
Mr.. Miller addresses some pungent re-
marks to newspaper critics. One OBJ
servation is to the effect that if newspa-
pers were run on the lines laid down for
them by critics who demand only exalted
themes they would be tough reading.
They would indeed. Mr.. Miller also in
forms us conhdentially that the number
of nice people who do not care a rap
about the silver question, the tariff or
the proceedings of congress is really
much larger than their highly educated
fellow mortals suspect. Yet these pay
for their paper and have a right to de-
mand what they want. That so many
of them do demand athletic sports is
good sign.
Mr.. Keller takes up the subject from
the point of view of the remuneration of
the journalist. His picture is a melan-
choly one on the whole. Three thousand
year is the highest pay newspaper
writer can hope to get unless he is ex-
ceptionally fortunate. That sum in a
large city is less than half what it would
be in small place Most newspaper men
wear out or die before they are so years
old and are showed aside to make room
for ambitious youths who enter on their
work full of life and enthusiasm. In this
day the business Office dominates the ed
itorial department. The writer is wholly
at the mercy of the capitalist. There
fore 80 per cent of the men who enter
journalism leave it before they become
old, making of it only a stepping stone
to something else that pays better.

THE KOoTENAI HERALD is weekly newspa-
per, devoted to the interests of the Kootenai
country in general, and 20 the financial welfare
OF its proprietor in particular. In politics il viii
be strictly Independent, but not necessarily neu-
trail. 10 entertains the theory that while the
leaders of the democratic and republican parties
are honest and patriotic their financial policy
lin which there is no difference between the two
parties) is detrimental to the interests OF the
West and South, and for that reason the forma-
ton of II new party, having for its principal OBJ
ject the restoration of SILVER to its proper sphere,
is a cOnsummation devOutely to be wished As
a business proposition the paper will be condue-
ted on the principal that one mans money Is
just as good as another's, and it will assist any
business man in bringing him and his goods and
wares to the favorable notice of the public in
proportion as he sees fit to pay for such adver-
Using The HERALD Will reflect malice toward

OF its editor; neither will it be hack to convey

ceive censure or applause ms they shall merit.

THE violent personal abuse Of
Grover Cleveland by some of the
advocates of the cause of silver is
doing the cause more harm than
good. While Cleveland's financial
views are Numerically opposed
to the interests of the West, there
is no question of his honesty Of
purpose or the sincerity of his con-
victons. He is one of the strong
est men Of the age and a patriotic
citizen, and nothing is gained for
the cause of silver by these TRADES
against the president. If silver ev-
er triumphs it must be in a cam
paign of education and argument
and not Of mud-slinging and abuse.

DISPATCHES from Washington say
that Congressman Sweet will leave
the republican party and join the
populists. Mr. Sweet himself
neither affirms nor denies the state

Mr., Sweet is in the same predica-

citizens-hanging on to the ragged
edge, undecided as to what is the
wisest course to pursue in
these days of dire calamity.

AS will be seen elsewhere the
owner of the HERALD again assumes
charge this week. After dissecting
the columns of the paper and cut
ting out the dead advertising mat
ter, it presents a slightly different
appearance, but still the old stand
by's of the town remain, and the
paper is in a far more prosperous
condition than many Of its contem-
poraries in larger towns; new ad-
vertising matter appears, legal adj
vertising is coming in, and orders
for job work begin to roll in like
old times. However, we can use to
good advantage the money due us,
and we still have considerable out
standing, due when we leased the
naper last June. If those indebted
will call and settle, or even pay an
installment of 10 per cent, we would
have no kick coming against any
part Of humanity.

Colonel Macdonald presided. aud in grace
ful speech introduced Captain Barry, who
was very enthusiastically applauded by the
mlIltlameD, who attended in civilian dress.
There were representatives present from
the ranks OF every command in the Second
brigade. with good sprinklng of officers.
The majority, however. was made up from
members of the Second Artillery, under
whose auspices the course of military lee
lures has been started,
Notwithstanding CAPTAIN Barry spoke dis
tlnetly and loud enough for ordinary occa-
sions it was with great difficulty he could
be heard. The heavy rain played a contin-
nous tattoo on the big armory roof, which
literally drowned the gallant captains voice
few seats from the front row.
Captain Barry pre!aced his lecture with a
few remarks on the advantages oil maintain
ing regimental lyceum. lie said there was
more than ample ability among the officers
and enlisted men of every regiment of the
National Guard of California to successfully
carry out such an undertaking.
The subject of his paper was, "Tactics in
general and o criticism OF the new drill
regulations" In it he reviewed the history
the Grecian phalanx down to the open
orders-United States drill reguls lions of
to-day. He considered them a revision of
Upton's system made applicable to the
three-battalOn formation, with a new sys-
TEN OF extended order or skirmish drill con-
forming to the IDEAS generally accepted by
the armies OF Europe. He discussed in a
concise manner the advantages and defects
oil the new drill, and was treated to several
rounds OF applause and a vote of thanks
before the meeting adjourned.

BETSY WAS GIDDY.
A Junk-DeaIer's Expert
ence With an Old Mare.
She Had Served in the Fire Depart
ment and Ran After Red
Buggy.

whoa, therel Whoa. therer' yelled an
excited individual. rushing frantically down
Howard street from Fourth to Fifth on
Thursday afternoon In pursuit of a s0rreI
mare attached TO junk wagon.
The mare didn't pay any attention to
these cries, and kept right on at Nancy
Hanks gait until she was so far ahead that
the man who tried to catch her gave 1t up
and stopped on the sidewalk to wipe the
perspiration off his brow and TO catch his
wind.
That is what fellow gets for buying a
horse like that" he said, as soon as he was
able to talk, and then he entertained the
crowd which gathered around him with the
following story:
lyon see that mare running like a race
horse down the street and scattering my
stuff right and left? Well, few Minutes
ago she was standing meekly in front OF
grocery-stOTe few blocks from here, and
you wouldn't have thought she would run
from the looks of her.
E"But horses are queer critters, ard there
is no knowing them. That sorrel was for a
long time in the Fire Department, ard in
her youthful days used to tear down street
with fire engine every time the fire bell
rang.
About year ago the Fire Department
found that she was getting too old for that
"a WI n ahu buIiiCu ucI bNti " tue
police, who used her on one of the hurry
up" or patrol wagons, as they call them.
But old Betsy was too slow for our speedy
police and they sold her at auction.
That's where l got her. and she was lust
the right kind OF a horse for my junk wagon
until that fire alarm sounded few minutes
ago and District Engineer Dougherty came
along in his red buggy Changing his bell.
just as soon as Betsy saw that red
wagon and heard that bell she got young
once more and followed that buggy as
though she'd break her neck"
Having told his story, the unhappy Junk
man jumped on a cabe-car and disap.
peared in the direction his Betsy had taken.
Hall an hOnr later he came back, driving
the old sorrel mare, which apparently had
managed 20 survive her giddy canter and
luckily had not broken the wagon, although
it contained but little of the junk it had
been loaded with

Helping Along the Essay
Contest.
TALKS TO NORMAL SCHOLARS
Now Students, Bend to the Task
and Show How Well
You Can Write.

SAN JOSE, March 7.-All the members Of
the faculty of the Normal School are taking
a deep interest in THE CALLS prize COM
position contest on the subject of Christie
pher Columbus and his big find. In fact.
they are taking every means to impress
upon the 655 scholars in the school proper,
and the $50 pupils in the training depart
ment, the Importance of the contest and the
great benefit il Will Accomplish.
When l talked with Principal George W.
Childs and Vice Principal George r. KIee-
berger yesterday upon the subject of the
contest they seemed full of interest, and
they escorted me through nearly every de-
partment connected with the mammoth in
stilution.
At the opening exercises this morning in
the assembly hall of the main building all
of the professors and the instructors were
seated on the platform. The exercises be-
gan by the chanting of the Lords Prayer.
This was followed by reports and singing,
IN which the entire $50 pupils in the Normal
department participated.
Professor Childs then called attention to
THE CALLS prize contest on the subject of
Christopher Columbus and his discovery Of
America, commemorative of the four hun
dredih anniversary of that great event and
the Worlds FAIR. Briefly he stated that
the contest would be beneficial in every
way, and encouraged his hearers to spare
no pains in sending in their compositions
without further delay. From a copy Of
The CALL he read the conditions of the
contest, and also suggested to the instruct
ors that they assist the pupils in this work
by every available means.
Then there was more singing and the
