4 QUEER CONSTRUCTION.

At first blush it looks as though
TIE authorities of Idaho are over
working the lottery Indictment bust
ness when they indict the owner of a
newspaper because through his paper
he offers prize to the person who
gets most subscriptions for the paper.
NO doubt strict construction Of the
law includes that under the head of
lottery, but it was not the purpose of
the law that that should be the case
The man who subscrlbes 81. 90 for the
weekly Examiner gets the full worth
of his money, and it is a perfectly le-
gltimate enterprise on the part of
Mr., Hearst or any other newspaper
publisher to offer prize to the per-
son, who in the interest of the paper
gets the most subscribers. The lot
terry law was intended to kill that
species of gambling which gives 80
out of every 100 who buy lottery
tickets nothing at all. There are
men all over Idaho reading the
Weekly Examiner and paying the
full price for it. If, then, Mr..
Hearst proposes, without advancing
the price. to give any man who is
taking the paper what he is getting
now, the full worth of his money,
and something beside, it is a strange
construction Of the law to say that
he is committing crime. The suits

The Firth W heel.

The huge timber supports for the
Firth wheel are in position, and the
shaft of the wheel will be raised i'm
mediately. This shaft is of cast
steel, twelve inches in diameter,
twenty-five feet long, and weighs :,
OBJ pounds. In its fianges and bear
ings nearly l, 800 pounds of steel and
iron are represented. The wheel it
self is nearly 100 feet in diameter ;,
but the height of 100 feet above the
Fair level is attained by having a
natural elevation of thirty above the
level of the main buildings and by
gaining twenty feet in foundations
and platforms. This greatest ele-
walton is within fifteen feet of the
height of Strawberry Hill.
The Firth wheel is not as large as
the Ferris wheel in Chicago, as the
time for construction was limited.
Originally the projectors intended to
build a wheel considerably smaller
than the one they constructed, but
they have taken advantage of every
point that the wheel might be of the
largest size possible. The consulting
engineer of the Exposition has in
spected the wheels foundations,
bearings and supports and has de
clared that they will withstand many
times the possible strain under wind
pressure of the greatest winds ever
known here. The foundation con-
tains 712 tons of cement and rock,
the wheel weighs ninety-six tons,
and with ten people i'll each of the
sixteen cars will have an additional
weight of twelve tons. Sex.

OUR SIMIAN RELATIVES,

The scientific gentlemen who have 90 in
geniously and successfully established a
relationship between Man and monkeys
can find some support of their opinion In
the ideas of people who are well acquainted
with monkeys and whose ancestors have
also been well acquainted with them.
Professor Garner, who has been in Africa
trying to learn monkey talk. finds that
some of the people among whom he has
been have stories which show their feeling
concerning the common origin of men and
monkeys. For instance, 1t is related that
Einyambie (God) had four sons, three of
whom elected to live on earth. When
they arrived one built a towa and planted
some bananas and manioc, while the others
roamed in the forest and ate wild fruits,
but they had no fire. At last they agreed
that the older of the two should go to the
town for FIRE while the other gathered dry
wood. This was done, but when the wet
season came 1t was difficult to procure
food, and the elder went again to the
town to ask for 1t. He brought 1t back,
bAb k2OnleAAAo bho yOuhSoA Ao0 1h1Ca
asleep and let the fire 60 out. Thereupon
they quarrelled and separated. The young
er, thus left alone, wandered about until
he became wild and fierce, and for want of
clothing was exposed to the weather until
a coat of hair grew all over him, and in
this wise came the gorilla into the world.
The next older brother took up his abode
near the town, and thus lea'ned some
things and became more wise and civil
than the one left in the bush; and from
him came "bushmsn," while the descend
ants of the one who built the town are the
people of the world.
This lent In accord with the great theory
of the evolution of Man from the monkey.
Indeed, it points the other way. But 1t Is
interesting and significant, and indicates
that there were at least two foolish people
in the world at one time, just as the bible
| story does

STILL GROWING.


Confidence has grown fast during the
last week and the indications now are that
soon everybody will be buying and selling
and getting gain, or making losses, as
usual. There has been a large business
done on the New York stock exchange, and
prices have materially advanced. The &C.
cusation is made that the market is largely
professional, but If it Is 1t is more encour-
aging than that other market, professional
or unprofessional, when prices were going
down anywhere from one to twenty points
day. Call money has been easier,
and time money has been procur
able without the excessive commits
sion rates which were demanded when
the scare was on. The premium
on currency has fallen to nominal figures
and there is no longer profit In dealing IN
gold to arrive. And concerning gold 1t is
interesting to note that In spite of the
scare and the hullaballoo this country
hasn't lost such terrible amount of gold
since the first Of January. The record Ia:
Exports of gold from January /, 1898, to
date, $se, ,723 ,271; imports for the same
period, $5s ,53s, 200; net exports $685.
OIL.
One of the most encouraging signs of
the last week was brought to light by the
expiration of the thirty days notice re-
quired by savings banks of New York and
Brooklyn. The banks had been careful to
keep on hand large stock of currency to
| meet the anticipated demand. But in
every case, and with surprising uniformity,
they report that less than 10 per cent of
those who had served the thirty
days notice upon them applied for
their money. Nine cut of every ten of
the depositors who, in the scare of the lat
| ter days of July, wished to withdraw their
| money from the banks, had evidently made
/ up their minds that they did not need their
| money so BADLY as they thought they did
and that it was safer in the custody of the
| banks than In their own possession. Moth
| ing could show more plainly than this the
| subeidence of the scare. It also indicates
that the people are not go poor as they
might be. If the general movement for
the withdrawal of deposits from the saw
ings banks had been due In any large de-
| gree to loss of employment and the con-
tingent necessity for the immediate use of
the money that had been laid away in wise
provision for "rainy days." that need
would be likely to be greater now than 1t
was month ago, and, in consequence the
demand for the withdrawal of savings
would be the greater.
The bears and the croakers expect mere
trouble as usual, but hope and confidence
are gaining fast, and they may be disap
pointed. The senate is evidently going tc
concur with the house in its action con
cerning silver, and the financial situation
will soon be sounder than ii has been fol
several years. The uncertainty about the
tariff will be disturbing influence fol
some time longer. 1t is the worst thing ir
sight now.
