n Political Pointer.

The democrats of the eastern
states did a noble work last week
when they knocked out the trail
tors and platform boilers who have
been masquerading as democrats.
Cleveland, Carlisle, German, Brice,
Campbell, Whitney, and all other
cuckoos are democrats in name
only. Our republican friends
should not be over-sanguine. The
democrats are not fighting them in
these times. They are simply kill
ing off the platform boilers who
are trying to lead them into the
gold-standard camp, where they
are as much out of their element
as fish out of water. With sure.
enough democratic leaders the
rank and file of the democratic
party will come out of the woods
and give their ancient enemy an
old-time dog-fall of a campaign
next year. They cannot and will
not fight under a leadership which
has sold them out and betrayed
them on fundamental principles O
party policy. Mr.. Cleveland cal
put this in his pipe and smoke it.

Steamboat Transportation.

Messrs. Fred Hallett and Geo.
w. Morrison, of Julietta, promo
ters of the proposed new line of
steamers to run on the Clearwater
river next year, were in town this
week talking matters over with
our business men. They met with
so much encouragement here that
the new steamer will be called the
"Grangeville." The proposition is
to have the boat run eight or ten
months in the year, making the
round trip from Lewiston to Ka-
miah in "a hours and loading 80
tons each way if that amount of
freight offers. The boat loaded
will draw only Is inches, and as
the river is lower now than it wac
ever known to be before, there is
no doubt but that the program can
be carried out. Reasonable freight
rates will be charged and every eff
fort made to promote prosperity
and growth among the people in
order to encourage traffic for the
new line. We wish them un-
bounded success.

ABSOLUTELY PURE
The Turn Ofthe Tide.
ABSOLUTELY PURE

For good many long years the
mining interests of Idaho county
have been steadily declining, but
during the present year the tide
has Enthusiastically turned, and it is
apparent to all that we are on tho
eve of great Transformation in
mining matters within our boun-
dairy lines. How much of this is
attributable to wagon road con-
struction into camps heretofore
isolated we will not venture to say.
Facts speak for themselves. Dur
ing this year of grace 1896, our
hills have been alive with
prospectors; and the agents, ex-
perts and capitalists seeking in
vestment have been frequent visi-
tors. Most of them mean business
and some have come to stay. The
net result is that there has been
this summer more legitimate min
ing, more actual developments and
more permanent Investments, in
both quartz and placer mines,
within the past twelve months
than for the thirty years preceding
the new era and it may be added,
more legitimate sales of mining
properties and this, too, not alone
in one particular camp or district,
but all over the vast area of this
great county, from Salmon river
on the west and Warrcns in the
south, to Florence in the center
and Elk City and Dixie in tho east,
AS a promising field for mining
ventures, taking into account area,
former production by primitive
methods, and the depth and con-
tinuity of ore bodies already DEM
onstrated, no county in the state
of Idaho offers better Inducements.
To this may be added AN abundant
timber supply and unlimited water
power, if properly utilized, in all
our mining camps. Tie area of
Idaho county is as large as the
three eastern states of Massachu-
sets, Connecticut and Rhode Is
land combined. The entire terri
tory within this area is. traversed
by well-defned gold belts, checker
ed with quartz veins, and mottled
by the debris of primitive gold dig
gings and dotted with the REM
nants of camps, cabins and towns
in various stages of desolation and
decay. Reoccupation and a renew
ed lease of life are lifting the shad-
ow of abandonment from these old
landmarks. The prospcctors are
in the field and the woods are full
of them. So are the books of the
county recorder with locations, re-
locations. of quartz and placer
claims and notices thereunto ap-
pertaining. Idaho county is an
exclusively gold bearing county.
We have never had a productive
silver mine within our limits. The
Clearwater and Salmon river re-
gions flow through the largest gold
producing belts in the northwest.
The earliest placer fields were dis
covered on the watersheds drain
ed by these rivers, and the latest
and best discovery and Develop
ment of gold-qnartz is now well
under way in the same great field
of mineral wealth. The develop.
ment of this year is remarkable
and the transition is very noticea.
BILE if you stop to think about it
The mines of old Idaho county are
alright and will soon eclipse in val
ue and productiveness the othel
great interests of live stock and ag
!. riculture.

The government revenues are short
and should be increased. Under our
constitution revenue bills originate in
the house. Dissatisfied with the former
house and generally with the party
which controlled that body, the people
have chosen a new house Republican

any measure II pleRses, 1t was impos-
sible to make like change In the sem
ate and the presidency. or that would
have gone with the rest,
The house is not responsible for the
senate or the President and will not be
held responsible for what either may
do. The house win be held to strict
accountability for what 1t may do or
leave undone. 1t should pass u bill to
raise SUFFICIENT revenue to meet the ex-
penses of the government. After that
the responsibility will rest on the senate
and the President.
Under the circumstances 1t would be
a waste of time for the house to pass
such tarlff bill as would be expected
to pass II the senate and the President
were in political accord with It Gem
eral and radical tariff revision will have
to await the completion of the work
which the people so well.
Without going Into the whole ques-
ton OF the tariff It is the duty OF the
house to do Its part towards providing
sufficient revenue, on basis OF Repub-
llcan principles. and to the discharge
Of this duty 1t should devote itself
promptly and earnestly. The Republic
cans in the house were not sent there to
stand in awe of divided senate or of a

Before Joining in the condemnation OF
Minister Lewis Baker for falling to re-
port the assassination OF an American
citizen in Nicaragua, we would like to
hear his version OF the matter. From
the information at hand II appears that
the assassination occurred a year ago,
that Minister Baker knew OF 1t and
made no report to the state department.
Meanwhile the mans property was con-
flscated by the NlcGraguan govern
ment.
Neglect in a matter of this kind is
not what we would expect OF Mr..
Baker, who knows the value of Amerl-
can citizenship and the responsibility
of the office he holds. OF course the
state department will ask the minister
for an explanation. and when that
comes It will be TIME enough to sit in
Judgment on him.
