WHAT IT MEANS,

The refusal of the Sultan TO permit
relief work by the Red Cross Society
in Turkey means plainly that he =
unwilling for any foreigners to learn
the true condition OF the sufferers by
+be Turkish sword and torch in Arme-
nia, Instead of trying to steal piece
of collaborating land in Venezuela
England ought to lead in movement
to wipe Turkey from the map, anu
drive the Mohammedans back INTO
Asia. If England's selfishness WIZ
not permit it to lead, the United states
ought to call for united action upon
the part Of all civilized countries.
Comptroller Fitch, of New York,
speaking of the matter, voices our
sentiments. He said:
II have taken much personal inter
est in the condition OF affairs III Arme-
MIA, because kin of my own were Tor
many wears missionaries in that teld.
The refusal of the Turkish Government
TO permit the ministrations OF MISS
Clara Barton and her co-laborers OF
the Red Cross Society in the sacked
and devastated country now overrun
with rapine and slaughter is the best
possible evidence that the brutal and
barbarous policy which has actuated
Mahometan rule in all ages is un-
changed. The time has come, in my
Judgment, when the civilized nations
of the world should make common
cause against this revolving system.
The United States Government should
take the lead, if necessary, in demand
ING a cessation of the horrors to which
the Armenians have been subjected.

sons which have impelled the Turkish
Government in this matter, but pre-
dict that they will be found to be bad,

termination which he has heretofore

MIR. PRITCHARD'S ADMISSION

One argument against the protec-
tive tariff that has had weight in the
South and West is that the Northern
people have been made rich by taxa
ton on the South and West. The
Southern and Western protectionists
have denied that this was true. In
his recent speech in the Senate, in
support of his amendment for high
tariff on lumber, Senator Pritchard
said:
II appeal TO my Northern friends in
this body TO come to our relief. | APP
peal to YOU to accept this amendment
and save Southern Industries from in
evitable destruction. | appeal conf
IDENTITY TO YOU whose section has so
long been the beneficiary of protec-
ton and whose great wealth and
splendid civilization is the direct re-
suit of Republican tariff legislation,
TO come 10 the South's rescue in its
heroic struggle for industrial enamel
patton.
Here the chief North Carolina fol-
lower of Mckinley admits what has
been charged, and begs his Northern
friends 10 come to ''the South's res
cue" This admission ought 10 be re-
membered. 1t is important.

Robert Bros, Want Canyon County to Sue Itself
and Pay The Bis.

Roberts Bros. of Spokane, who
agreed to take the Canyon county bonds,
have been in correspondence with Clerk
Dunbar for some time. Their latest re-
quest is that this county contribute a
reasonable sum towards defraying the
expenses of testing the legality of the
bonds in the supreme court. If the
court decides in favor of the county,
they state they are then prepared to
pay over the money and take the bonds.
Possibly they may be. 1t certainly APP.
pears strange that a county should be
requested to maintain an action against
itself. and it would seem that Roberts
Bros. desire Canyon county to foot the
expenses of test case that would APP
ply to every other county in the state,
Again there is question as to what is
ment by reasonable" amount. 1t is
believed that the commissioners would
pay 500 or possibly $3.50 in order to
finally settle this long drawn out and
exceedingly wearisome bonding QueS-
ton. But before spending another
cent on this matter they should satisfy
themselves that Roberts Bros. really
intend to take these bonds. There has
been tco lavish an expenditure in post
age stamps By this firm and not enough
for bonds to suit the ordinary taxpayer.

The <. OF 2. ENTERTAINMENT.
ALarso Audience sad an Unusually Able Per.
fSrmHhce.

A large and appreciative audience
greeted the performers as the curtain
rose at the opera house Wednesday
evening, the occasion being the enter
tainment presented by Mountain Gem
Lodge, K. of p. in commemoration of
the thirty-second anniversary of that
order. The entertainment opened with
genuine minstrel first part with
Messrs. Dunbar and Beatty on the ends
and p. A. Deyers as interlocutor.
Songs and local gags followed each
other in rapid succession, and that they
were well received was attested by the
continued applause of the audience.
The olio ended with few extracts from
"Barnum's Circus" as presented by
Dunbar aud Beatty.
The two final acts of the drama of
Damon ane Pythias were next present
ed in most artistic manner with A.
K. Steunenberg as Damon, John T..
Morrison as Pythias and S. M. Coffin as
Dionysius, tyrant of Syracuse. Mes
danes Roadway and Gaylord followed
with two beautiful and splendidly rem
dered solos which elected warm ap-
plause. Beatty and Dunbar each sang
a character song and the entertainment
ended with an exceedingly funny bur
lesque in color, entitled Damon and
Pythias.
The performance lasted about three
hours and is declared to have been the
best amateur effort eyer seen in the
city.

JUNE RACES.
The Caldwell Racing Associations To Meet June Il
~ and I2-$60O in Purses.

A meeting of the Caldwell Racing
Association was held at Chas, H. Reeds
office last Monday and it was unani-
mously decided to have races on the
Caldwell track June 10, IL and II.
Purses amounting to 5000 will be hung
and it is probable that an extra day s
racing will be given for which special
purses will be offered. 1t is thought
that races at this time of the year will
attract most of the best horses of the
country. The program has not yet
been arranged.
Messrs Campbell Hardy and Wilson
were appointed as committee on track
and Chas. II. Reed was unanimously
elected an honorary member of the
association. Announcement of the
program will be made as soon as it is
completed.

lows fishing for a livelihood near the
mouth of Boise, was arrested last week
charged with stealing 40 salmon from
his own fish box. lie had loaned the
box to other parties who failed to re.
turn it after several requests. Then
Frank went after it and took box and
contents. Tho fish he hauled to Boise
intending to divide the proceeds. He
had an examination before Judge
Little Tuesday and was discharged, as
all evidence went to show that he had
acted in entire good faith. If on lines
