Judged by Your Paper.

1t has been well and truly said
that one can always judge a town
and it's people by scanning the
columns ofits newspaper. Ifthe
paper itself be poorly made up,
its news, if any it have, dull and
uninviting, then cast an eager
and inquiring eye at the people
in the immediate vicinity; for
the home paper is a reflection of
the thoughts and customs Of it's
supporters. Never buy town
lots where poor, half-starved
newspaper is published. News
papers these days are a necessity
not a luxury. They are SO cheap
that the poorest can have them
unless he is running a bill at the
saloon. 1t matters not how
many city paper a man may take
he should give an honest support
to his home paper, for by sup
porting it he is advertising him.

Admiral TFyon's Blunder.

LONDON, July 3. Sir Charles
Dixie, one of EngIand's most en-
inent lay authorities in naval
and military matters, was inter
viewed today concerning the re-
ports that Admiral Tryon was
suffering from temporary de-
rangement when he conducted
the maneuvers off Tripoli. Sir
Charles said: "While the foreign
office has great deal to say on
the subject, ] must confess that
Admiral Tryon never gave me
the idea that he had any mental
weakness whatever. The blum
der, however, passes comprehen-
sion. Had Tryon lived he must
have been adjudged guilty ac-
cording to the present evidence,
and unless the crown used her
prerogative would haye been shot.
Numerous private letters con-
cerning the sinking of the Victo-
ria have been received from the
sailors of the Mediterranean
fleet. One sailor of one of the
smaller vessels writes with refer
ence to Admiral Tryon's signal:
I'VE all stood amazed at such a
signal, knowing very well that
there was no room for the ships
to turn, but he ordered and he
was to be obeyed. Although
the vessel was sinking under him
Tryon signalled, refusing boats.
May | never see such wholesale
murder again. We saw men fall
against the sharp blades of the
screws and cut to pieces. The
whole fleet could see the poor
fellows standing in perfect order,
quietly drowning in their ranks.

Progress on the Prairie.

To fully appreciate the steady
growth and improvement of that
famous country known as Camas
Prairie one must take a personal
view of it. Descending from
Craig's Mountain through the
beautiful and fertile table land
called Mason Prairie you soon
reach Cottonwood, the first town
of the Camas country. Just be-
fore reaching this town you have
spread out before you as fine a
country as the eye ever looked
upon--a mighty panorama of
prairie surrounded by the Bitter
Root, Seven Devils and other
mountains, a perfect little en-
pire i'm itself. Cottonwood is a
hustling, growing town, full of
business men who are deter
mined to push their town to the
very front. Ten miles further
on Denver is reached, which its.
enthusiastic citizens have dubbed
the Queen of the Prairie" Sit
uated in about the center of the
of the Prairie Denver affords the
finest views of that great section.
and has the push and means to
make their town one of the very
best. Ten miles further on is
Grangeville, the largest town on
the Prairie, and if her citizens
carry out their intentions she
will continue to grow and pros
per. Then there is Mt. Idaho, 3
miles from Grangeville, the,
county seat and an ideal spot for
town. Brownsville, is a new
town just starting, at the cross
sing of the south fork of the
Clearwater, on the road
to the Elk City country-1a
splendid site for a good town.
The people of the Prairie are all
Justly elated over their magnifi-

Iowa's Senator on the Sherman Law and
Silver Money.

Iowa's Senator on the Sherman Law and
Silver Money.
MINNEAPoLIs, July Ex-senator William
b. Allison was in the city, the guest of
Senator W. d. Washburn. Senator Allison
was asked what in his opinion was the re-
lation of the Sherman law to the present
financia! situation. He replied: "The un-
rest is chargeable partly and very largely
to the fact that there is belief that il we
continue to purchase silver we must soon
reach the silver standard. That belief ex-
isting. it is no longer useful or wise to con-
tinue these purchases. Expansion of
credit. distrust of the Democrats as re-
spects the tariff and the general subject Of
the currency all contribute to the trouble
we are having
'If we cease the purchase of silver we
can easily maintain at par in gold all the
silver we have, and the fear of a silver
standard will pass away. Such stoppage
will very greatly aid in the restoration of
confidence, which is the important thing.
We are amply supplied with gold for
every purpose"
Being asked what in his opinion was the
future of silver the senator replied: "Sil-
yer bullion is now far below its normal
price. 1t will advance as soon as the pol
icy regarding its use is more clearly de-
fined. That it will be used as money
largely in the future and that it will
eventually be restored to its old status
do not doubt.
Meanwhile ii will not be likely to de-
preciate more. When the law was passed
it was thought important to add to the
circulating money each month to provide
for the expansion of business. The law
had that effect until recently. Now, how
ever, instead of enlarging the volume OF
the currency these purchases cause the
boarding of gold and greenbacks and
thereby contract the volume of money.
So the useful purpose intended no longer
existing, it is probable it will be re-
pealed" "

Porter Satisfied that the Whole Thing Was

Davidson's statement is about the same
as Gallagher's. Besides these Mr.. Porter
has the affidavit of person who swears
that certain detective in the atlantis
presence told Gallagher why he wanted to
strike blow at the Knights of Labor.
The detective also said that the only way
to do it was to swear Dempsey was guilty
and stick to it to the end. If he did not
swear this the detective said he would have
Gallagher indicted for murder. Similar
corroborations of the confessions of the
convicts is given by nearly dozen witness
ses whose afidavits Mr.. Porter has in his
possession.
1t will also be shown where detectives
tried to get others to do some swearing in
the case and where false testimony, out
side of Gallagher and Davidson, was given
at the trial Mr.. Porter said: II do not
want any unjust suspicion to be attached
to any one. This work was done entirely
by Pinkerton detectives, probably because
they wanted to get even for their defeat on

ity." Mr.. Porter thinks that because
other persons who were connected with the
case, according to Gallagher's first confess
sion, were not prosecuted is sufficient and
conclusive evidence that the whole thing
was plot against Dempsey.
Continuing Mr.. Porter said: From the
