ONE TRADE BUSY.
More Clothes Mending by Taiiors One

More Clothes Mending by Taiiors One
of the Results of Dull Times.
"My trade has been bigger and bet
ter in the last two dull years than ever
it was before" said a Columbus avenue
tailor who follows the useful business
of mending mems clothes, to a New
York Sun reporter. Look at the piles OF
garments upon these shelves awaiting
my needle. l never knew of such
rush at any other time since / became
a boss in the taijor's trade as that for
two years. l have had, and yet have,
to give out jobs enough to keep ten
men and women at work. People come
in here with coats and trousers and
vests who never used tJ do it, and
hardly ever had any mending done, or
ever thought of a patch. They have
been getting out their old stock to be
fixed up on account of the hard times.
Some of them, who would not be seen
in here, send around their garments
by messenger boy or a servant, and
can turn out some things so as to be
better than they were when new. No,
l would not give you the names of my
customers, but can tell you that some
of them pass for rich. That summer
suit belongs to a man who is believed
to be a millionaire, and he has worn it
for two seasons, and when l send it
back to him, he can wear it for two
more. Some men whom you'd never
suspect of being hard up must be down
on their stumps, or perhaps they are
practicing economy without any need
for it,
Lots of New Workers are mighty
foolish about their clothes. They will
throw away coat or n pair Of trous-
ers when they are not half ~orn out.
Another thing, new clothes are cheap
nowadays, but it is a fact that they
are not so cheap as last years when
you can get them mended ant cleaned
for a dollar or two. Nearly all the
merchants in my line are busy, and we
have had good times all through the
bad years. The extravagant & I'd waste
full people have had useful lesson

Jealous Whisky.

There are about 200 wholesale
dealers in whisky in New York city.
and they intend to form a combina-
ton to fight the whisky trust. Their
weapon will be the boycott. The rea-
son given for this action on their
part is the understanding among
them that the trust intends to raise
the price of whisky from ID to 20
cents a barrel. They say that this
has been agreed upon, and that the
advance will soon be made. 1t is
their contention that Wall street con-
trols the trust, and they do not in
tend TO pay an additional price so
that the stock can be forced up from
23 1-2 to 40. There are four distill-
cries out of the trust. They have a
capacity OF 1900 bushels day, or
about $4,000 gallons of spirits. in
New York there is consumed daily
500 barrels OF high-proof spirits,
which. from adulteratiOn and dilution,
become twice that quantity. The
distilleries outside OF the trust are
the Atlas, Of Peoria; the Hanover,
Peoria; the Globe of Pekin, and the
American OF Pekin. Each one of these
companies has an agency in New
York. The Whisky trust is lovely.
Every body who has stock in it wants
to water his stock and his whisky
both.

Investigation has resulted in show
ing that California is being flooded
with cheap Japanese labor, every
steamer from the Orient, Honolulu
and Victoria bringing them in large
numbers, in violation of the United
States contract labor laws. Within
the past year about 10000 Japanese
have found employment on farms and
in vineyards, and white farm hands
are idle BY the thousands. Japan is
on top now. and Japs are made he
roes of, and pctted. Cinnamon have
been despised and assaulted in Cali
fornia. They naturally want to be
Japs, and keep on with cheap labor.

a Hedgehog Pet.

Wherever the ex-Empress Eugenie
goes she carries a little wicker bas-
ket with her, never entrusting it to
other hands than her own. That
same basket has awakened perhaps
more curiosity and caused moro con-
lectures as TO its contents than any
thing else about the lady. At last, it
is said, the secret is out. The basket
is lined with padded silk and is the
residence of hedgehog. 1t is the
one and only pet Of the ex-empress,
and she never travels without it, or
allows other hands than her own to
care for il.

LIGHTING A PIPE IN A WIND.

Our Boat Service.

Commencing with this week the
Str. Nelson will make only weekly
trips to Bonner's Ferry for the bal
ance of the season. The Hays
will make occasional trips to the
lake. She will not have a regular
time schedule. This is the extent
of the boat service on this route at
present and for the balance of the
season.
There is something little pecu
liar about this. There is trainload
after train load of freight going in
to Kootenai Lake points and the
SLOGAN, yet hardly ton of it comes
over the Ct. Northern Kootenai
River route, although, for the bulk
of this freight, it can be sent cheap
er this route than by the Spokane
Falls & Northern and the Kootenai.
This state of affairs is more than
peculiar. What is the Great
Northern doing? Has it made a
traffic arrangement with the Spok-
ane Falls & Northern people to the
neglect of its own route and terri
tory? We read every few weeks
about Great Northern officials 60
ing into the British Kootenai in
search of traffic, but that is the end
of it. The traffic goes in and out
over the other route
We trust that this condition of
affairs will not exist longer than
the present season. We do not be-
lieve it will. We hear well-found-
ed rumors of a daily boat and other
traffic arrangements for this route
for next season. We do not look
for it upon the theory that the
Great Northern will try to develop
its own territory, for it has been too
often, and, we fear, too truly
charged that that is thing the G.
N. never has in view, except Incl
dentally, and very incidentally al
that. But we look for better trans
portation facilities solely on tn
