GREAT NORTHERN COMING
Jim HiIl's Railroad Coming to
Camas Prairie With a Hop,
q Skip, and a Jump.

1t is stated on reliable authority
that the Great Northern will with
in 30 days send a corps of survey
Ors into the field to make the survey
of the first branch line of the road
in this section.
This is the branch for which the
people of Elberton, Pine City, Pal
ouse City and other towns in the
Palouse country have been making q
strong pull recently. They have
held mass meetings and laid the
matter before President Hill.
Nor is this all. They have even
secured the right of way from the
point where the branch will leave
the main line to Palouse City. In
most cases the farmers have given
the right of way outright, and
where they have not, the owners
of adjacent property have given
them land in exchange for the right
of way. The people along the pro-
posed branch are confident that it
will be built, and that work will
follow close on the completion OF
the survey. 1t is stated that the
branch will leave the main line in
the vicinity of Medical Lake, pass
through Cheney and Pine City,
then on to Cottonwood, ON the
southeast side of Steptoe butte, and
down ON Dry creek, then through a
low pass to the mouth of Silver
creek, striking the North Palouse
river at Elberton, thence up the
North Palouse river to PalOuss
City, thence to Pullman, thence t.
Cotton, thence down Steptoe can
yon to Lewiston, thence across thu
Clearwater to Camas prairie. 1
} will be seen that the road will pas
through good country the entir
distance, and between Cheney ant
Elberton will touch territory no
yet penetrated by a railroad, be
sides being the first line to Lewis
ton and Camas prairie, Idaho.

WHAT WILL HE DO WITH IT9

Did Siam yield to Frances demands to
get France into trouble? The case has
all Of that appearance. France cannot
take possession of the whole territory
which Siam has conceded to her without
coming directly alongside of England's
dominions in Burmah. When she does it.
therefore, she will contravene a fixed
principle OF England's Julian policy, which
has always been that no European power
should come into juxtaposition with her
Eastern dominions. The danger that her
sable subjects may be melted 10 sedltion
and treason is too great for that TO be
permitted. 1t is a reasonably fair proph-
ecy that England will fight rather than
abandon this traditional policy in the
East
Not only so, but part Of the territory
which Siam agrees to cede to France IS
territory which England ceded to Siam
In the way Of erecting her into an effec-
tive buffer State. Is it probable that
she will allow Siam to grant It away
under plan which effectually defeats
the object she had in view in granting IT
to Siam?
We think the chances are one hundred
TO one that France can never take pos
session Of all that she bullied little Siam
out Of, save at the cost Of war with
England. Does she think the game worth
the candle? We shall see
Was there not a little malice In Slams
surrender?

MIR. DOOLEY'S LETTER TO hR.
CLEVELAND

The argument OF Mr.. Dooley's open
letter TO Mr.. Cleveland is that figures
now show ttat the reciprocity treaties we
have entered into with the South Ameri-
can countries result in those countries
selling 10 us all they can, because their
products are allowed TO enter our ports
free Of duty, but they buy little or moth
ing from us. They make us pay them
in gold for what they sell TO us. but
they take that gold away. investing but
little OF ii in what we have 10 sell. Mr.
Dooley thinks this an unmitigated evil.
and he thinks we should adopt no further
legislation tending in the direction OF an
admission Of foreign goods free Of du-
ties.
There are two standpoints from.Xhich to
look at this matter. our present
theory Of legislation is built upon the
idea that the people OF the United States
should be allowed TO purchase or should
be forbidden TO purchase foreign articles
accordingly as the whims and humors
of those who framed the legislation
prompted them TO draw the lines. They.
therefore, placed an embargo upon some
foreign articles and admitted other for
eign articles freely and with no restric-
lions. This subordinates the tastes and
the ideas Of the citizen TO Mr.. McKin-
ley's notions Of the way ~ which he
ought to indulge them, and is one OF the
most detestable forms OF a paternal and
tyrannical Government. We thoroughly
agree with Mr.. Dooley In holding that
there should be no further extension OF
the free list based upon any plan OF pro-
cedurc like this. We abhor the idea Of
Mr.. Mckinley and his likes prescribing
what the people ought to wish to con-
sumo and what they ought TO object 10
consuming. But we are not perfectly sure
We are IN entire accord with Mr.. Dooley
in the treatment which he would apply
10 the subject. We infer that he takes a
small amount OF stock In the protective
idea and would shape our legislation in
such way as that the duties we impose
upon foreign goods should measureablv
coerce those with whom we trade TO trade
with MS. II Mr. Dooley means this. then
The Times must part company with him
az that point.
Inc Government has no right to impose
