THE FUTURE OF IDAHO.

In its recent great New Year edi-
ton the Salt Lake Tribune speaks
editorially Of Idaho in this strain:
The men who possess the Gem OF
the Mountains are having a hard
struggle. The mines are well nigh
all closed down, which has thrown
thousands of men out of employ
ment, and then the collapse of the
mining business has taken away in
great part market for farmers.
The depression sits very heavily on
our neighbor and many a brave soul
up their is well nigh in despair.
But we bid them hope. There is
still great deal of gold in that
State, a great deal Of copper and
almost no end to the agricultural
capacities Of that region. From the
start already made, the promise is
that Idaho will be the greatest fruit
producing region of this central ba-
sin in the next five years. Nothing
could be finer than the fruits and
vegetables. and other products Of
the soil in that State, and we think
the struggle of the people should be
to try at the same time to induce
capital to come there, which win
make it possible to utilize the waters
of the great rivers which flow there,
that they may be turned aside TO
give the thirsty soil life: and the ia
ducement is intensely increased by
the knowledge that when once the
soil is brought under the vitalizing
influence Of water, its productive
powers are almost unlimited. We
wish to call the attention ofthe peo-
pie TO the fact that depression has
now reached its very lowest limit.
1t cannot go much farther in the
east without chaos coming, and with
that problem before the president
and congress Of the United States,
and the fact that three millions OF
one-fourth Of the working forces
among the people of the U. States
are idle and dependent upon charity
for support, ought very soon to
arouse our lawmakers to the fact
that something must be done to
change this order Of things If they
still hope to maintain the integrity
Of the republic. We think it will
have to come before this year is
over. We are the more impressed
with that fact because the depres'
sion is not confined TO our country
but it is even worse in Europe thar
in the United States, and yesterday
the cry came that in one provinces
of India tens of millions of PEG
pie are on the verge of starvation
| II lie a fearful showing and out Of i
all, it seems to US, the SO called
statesman of this world will hav'
to very soon learn the fact that b,
the manipulation Of interested mer
money has become 80 much NOR
valuable than property, that tn
business Of the world has becom,
paralyzed. When they once realiz'
further that there is but one remedy
that there is but one source from
which the remedy can come, the
Idaho will ring with the hammer
of industry, and the great depres
, sion will change to an area OF pros
perity SO great that in its midst tn
, people will look back and wonde
that the skies could be SO black.

ON THE MARCH.
Coxey's Army on the Way From
Alliance to Salem

ALLIANCE, o., March %. Sunshine
and smiles greeted CoXey's army as
they filed through Alliance on their
road to Salem. About 700 people, cur
l0uS and lncredulous, witnessed the
parade through the square here. All
were not in line in the various
groups tor the length of
the march was known. Thirty
five men managed to get on freight
trains. east bound. intending to camp
with the army again tonight. Before
breaking camp Marshal Browne had a
serious talk with his ragged band. Two
OF the men had serious fight about
midnight, i'll the tent, in dispute over
the ownership of straw bed.
Unknown" Smith said to his COM
mand that if anything of this sort oc-
CURED again he expects TO be in it with
both fists.
Owing to the gorging by the men, who
have as many as four meals in success

Then the common veal will be one man

received a message from Columbia
THAI lue citiLeuS or Le6tOnla
will serve hot lunch on the
line of march tomorrow. Start was
made with 1913 men in line, including
the self-appointed officers At the time
OF leaving the place for the noon
biyouac had not been decided, but a
stop will be made when hunger over
takes the crowd. The yelled lady who
passes as the wife of the unknown
assistant marshal of the army arrived
from Cleveland last night. but did not
accompany her husband when the army
left for the East.
The soldiers passed a comparatively
comfortable night, with plenty of fresh
straw for bedding, and, when the re-
veille sounded. appeared cheerful and
enthusiastic. Camp fires were soon
blazing. and the fragrant smell
of boiling coffee and frying
ham filled the air. Pork
and bacon fried and siZzled over the
hot embers. and men with great hunks
OF bread stood by to sop up the not
gravy as it accumulated in the pans. Ii
was not unlike the scenes about thou
sands of camp fires in the South more
than quarter of a century ago.

RECEPTION TO M'kiNLEY


Every one recognizes that Gov. Me-
Kinley's trip 10 Minnesota at this time
is purely political affair and in Mime
apolis it has been intensely partisan
throughout.
1t is gratifying therefore to note that
few hours are to be given in ST. Paul
to reception. not to the author and ad-
vocate of a high protective tariff, but to
an eminent American citizen.
The American people are pleased to
honor their prominent men. and we are
glad to note that st. Paul Republicans
have been broad enough to give parti-
sanship vacation for three or four
hours that such portion of the pubic as
may desire can have All opportunity TO
meet personally SO distinguished citl-
zen as Gov. Mckinley without the
necessity Of joining in a bolsterouS po-
lltlcal demonstration.
Granting that there turks beneath the
whole affair movement of politicians,
the citizens Of st. Paul will honor them :
selves by laying aside party issues. for
the moment, and, regardless OF political
predictions. extending welcome to a
man who occupies so important po-
sition as Gov. William Mckinley. of
Ohio-and whose career has made him
man of national repute.
1t was Mckinley affair yesterday
pure and simple. Today it is the peo-
pies matter, and st. Paul can exclaim,
We are the p .ople.'

THE GOLD FEVER.

tended, but the manner in which it is
conveyed is certainly ill-tempered and
manifestly prompted by sectional jeal-
ousy.
The GLOBE does not undertake to
pass upon the truth of the reports COM
ing from the alleged gold fields of
Northern Minnesota. but it sees NO rea-
son to question their genuineness. That
gold exists in small quantities does not
admit of dispute; the only controversy
is as to whether or not it may be found
in paying quantities. The nature of the
country is certainly favorable to the
theory that it is rich in mineral re-
sources. Auriferous rock has been dis
covered in many localities, and geolog.
ical conditions indicate that IL may exist
in abunds nee. But it is not probable
that it can be profitably extracted with
There are no placer "diggings' where
man may wash out few hundred dol
lars worth of the precious dust every
day. The metal Is found only in re.
fractory rock, requiring crushing and
smelling. But these processes are CON-
paaratively inexpensive in the regions,
there is an abundance of coal suitable
for smelling, and the machinery may be
placed in position at comparatively little
cost for transportation.
That there will be great rush for tie
gold fields as soon as the spring Is fairly
upon US does not admit of a doubt. A
large proportion of those who go there
expecting to make a fortune will be
grievOusly disappointed, and will re-
turn poorer than when they started out
except in the way of experience. But
that there is profitable field for enter
prise. allied with capital, does not admit
of doubt. The gold may not "pan
out" according to expectations, but
there is silver and iron hidden away IN
the ranges, and from the three COM
bined, if not from either one, hand
some profit may be derived. But the
inducements are not sufficiently alluring
to warrant men without capital In for
saking their present employments for
the hazard of search for gold. In that
region they would be simply laborers,
working for no greater reward than they
could receive in the towns and cities, or
on the farms throughout the country.
Gold mining is an alluring occupa
ton. We have read of those who accu-
INFLATED fortunes in California in the
early days, and few of these FORUM
ates yet survive in the enjoyment OF a
