Governor McCon.elI's Reply to an East
ern journal.

Governor McConselrs Reply to an East
ern Journal
Boise Statesman: Governor McCon-
nell has sent the following interesting
letter to the Chicago Journal OF Com
merce:
Gentlemen: You ask me for an ex-
preston Of opinion as 10 the progress
OF the state OF Idaho since It's admis-
sion into the union. embracing II posi-
BILE four points.
First-what were the total figures Of
population and general wealth OF your
state at the time OF organization and
what has been the increase Of these
figures for each past decade to date?
Second-What data have you snow
ing the increase In number and capital
OF the iron and steel and foundry In
dustry of Idaho for each past decade7
Third-what have been the total fig-
ues and increase OF the products or
manufacturing and number OF en-
ployes in your state for each past de-
cade?
Fourth-what condition Is the pres
ent commercial and Industrial feeling
considered to now be in throughout
your state from a standpoint OF a -four
ishing, prosperous and independent
people. free homes, advanced science,
bountiful crops and a promising fu-
ture?
In reply to your inquiry. Idaho was
admitted into the union in 1890. at
which time we had a population OF
about $4,000 and assessable property OF
25.743.4 .437 which Is estimated TO be
about one-third OF the real value OF the
property.
We have had a steady increase In
| population up to the present time when
we have about i25. 900. Our assess
ments show in 1891. $50, ,25s, ,673; In 1892.
| s3i ,16O O66: in 1898, $33. .431, ,s91: In 1894.
s2s, ,sS7. .2S1: in 1895. SO. .332. 30. II viii be
| seen that during the past two years
| there has been a failing on in value,
although that falling OF is much
| OF the assessors.
In actual value real estate Is not
worth to exceed 80 cents on the dollar
| of what it was in 1898. while one OF our
| greatest indus tries. that OF sheep rails
ing. has suffered In proportion. IL Is
quite probable that we have reached
| the lowest point. Labor on the farm
and IN fact in all the. pursuits except
mining. has been materially reduced.
The prospect OF better times which was
| held out to our people and was to fol-
low the repeal OF the Mckinley act and
the purchase clause In the Sherman
bill has failed 10 materialize-
Our people. however. are nearly al
producers either on the farm, range OF
in the mines and we can stand the
competition to the pauper classes oi
Europe and Asia and still exist bettel
| than the people who are occupied IN
factories In the crowded cities OF th<
| East.
In reply to your second and third
queries. we have no iron and steel In
dustries In this state nor do we manu-
facture to any great extent. Our peo
pie are producers or raw material
Respectfully yours.

CRAZED FROM FEAR.
The Insanity of Mrs. p. Hsuk of wash
ington County.

Portland Oregonian: On complaint
OF p. Hauk, Mary Hauk. aged 80 years.
and a resident OF South Portland, was
examined in the county court yester-
day. and was committed to the insane
asylum. She talks incoherently on re-
llgious subjects. and thinks her hus-
band Is insane. She Is at times vio-
lent and destructive. The cause OF her
insanity could not be determined by
the examining board.
Mrs. Hauk created q scene yesterday
morning in front OF the Mulkey build
ing. by screaming for Colonel Harring-
ton, who has been her attorney in d.
vorce proceedings against her hus-
band. He at a glance detected that
the woman had lost her reason. and
summoned Policeman Daily. who con-
veyed her TO the police station.
In connection with this case. Colonel
Harrington relates a pathetic story.
The woman and her husband, Powell
Hauk. had been living on ranch In
washington county. which they lost
because OF a defective title. Then they
came here. and II II alleged that the
loss OF the property preyed 50 seriously
upon Hauk's mind that his conduct
toward his wife assumed a cruel
phase. About three weeks ago Mrs.
Hauk called on Colonel Harrington
and engaged him 10 institute divorce
proceedings. She claimed TO be unable
TO longer live with her husband, be-
cause OF his cruelty and frequent
threats 10 kill her and himself. Mrs.
Hauk said that she had recently read
so much about murder and suicide that
she feared her husband would execute
| his threats.
on Thanksgiving eve DIR. Belknap Of
the ,Sanitarium. called on Colonel Har-
rington. advising him that Mrs Hauk
was at his infirmary, but that he could
no longer shelter her because OF the
| violent demonstrations OF her husband
who persisted In trespassing upon the
premises Dr. Belknap. however. was
prevailed upon 10 allow her 10 remain
| until she became cured OF her nervous
| ailment. which. however. gradually
seemed to be growing more serious

Ka1ispell Inter-Lake: How about
that ski club this winter? Last winter
one was organized, but the skis were
not completed until after the snow was
so nearly gone that the club could 40

this winter and we hope to see the club
organized and at work early this win

dinavian citizens should be allowed to
monopolize an the fun that is to be

are lots of people in Kalispeal who
could have plenty of fun and plenty OF
exercise chasing up and down the hifls
on skis, and incidentally digging each
other out of the snow.

tention was paid to these lessons, the

our age, and involves the veal or woe of our
people, the destruction or rescue of human
life, the losing or saving of immortal souls;

When a person is losing flesh and
wasting away there is cause for alarm
Nothing SO worries a physician. Con
sumptives would never die if they
could regain their usual weight. In
fact there would be no consumption
if there was no wasting of the system
The cause of this loss of flesh is a
failure to properly digest the food
eaten. Nine-tenths of all our diseases
date back to some arrangement of the
stomach.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial will
stop this wasting of the body. 1t
acts by causing the food we eat to be
digested SO as to do good, for undi-
gested food does more harm than
good. The Cordial contains food al
ready digested and a digester of foods
