WORKING FOR PRINCIPAL"

The fOwery talk of the Occur d'Alene re-
publicans about working for principle should
be taken with some degree of allowance
They traded off their northern allies and did
not tote fair when they were after the
school Of science. The Occur d'Alene repub-
lican is always for principal when self inter-
est runs in the same channel -Kootenai
Herald.
The same crowd are endeavOring
hard to make the people of this coun-
ty believe that they would break their
necks to aid in returning Senator Du-
bois to the senate, but the true friends
of the senator will later learn to their
sorrow that the 'hOWlers' are work
ing for principal. They are endeavor-
ing to deceive the people of Kootenai
county by covering their schemes with
the mantle of Senator Dubois pop
ularity, and whoever assails them is
an enemy OF the sena tor-so they say.
All this will be pretty thoroughly dis
cussed before the republicans of this
county nominate their candidates for
the legislature, and it will then be
known whether majority of Koote-
mai county's taxpayers want division
or not.

WE have concluded to give Assessor
Quarles and his heller, Scott, a weeks
grace, pending the action the board
OF commissioners will take in the mat
ter of the publication of the delin-
Quent tax-list. AS it now stands the
whole proceeding is illegal and it is
undoubtedly the biggest piece of botch
work ever performed by any assessor,
and unless the commissioners take
action in the matter, the county will
surely have trouble in collecting de-
linquent taxes this year. Suppose
these proceedings were legal, would it
be justice to the county printer who
has the contract for this year and who
was required to bid on this work :?
The printing contract expires on the
second Monday in April, 1897. Sup
pose our next assessor would be friend
ly to delinquent taxpayers and give
them until the fourth Monday in May
before advertising the list, which he
certainly will do If he is reasonable
man, would that be justice to the per-
son who is doing the county printing
this year?

To Exterminate the San Jose Scale.
Mr.. Emil Schanno, who is member
OF the State Board of Horticulture, has
been investigating the subject of means
to extermInate the San Jose scale and
aphis. This inquiry has led to the be-
lief that the remedy printed below will
prove efficacious in destroying this
enemy of the fruit men. The wash is a
preparation to be used IN winter time,
and it should be applied during the
next two months. The formula is as
follows:
The following formulae and directions
if properly carried out, will produce an
effective solution for San Jose scale and
aphis.
80 lbs. Lime.
80 lbs. Sulpher.
so lbs. of Stock Salt.
This will make $50 gallons of wash.
Directions-Slack 25 lbs of lime, then
add the so lbs, of sulpher, boil it over a
brisk fire for one hour, then slack the
remaining % lbs. of lime, then place all
the salt with it in the boiler and boil for
fifteen minutes more, then add the nec-
essary amount of water to make $50 gall
Ions.
This solution should be used at a tenn
perature of at least 100 degrees. Before
using strain it. This is an excellent
winter wash for fruit trees.
The utility of this wash depends a
great deal upon the strength of the sui
phur. It is therefore recommended that
those; who use this wash have Beau
mes scale for acid. When it shows eight
degrees when cold, it is of the proper
strength. These scales can be obtained
through any druggists. at a cost not to
exceed fifty cents.

IsH ALLIANCE POINTED
OUT.
ALTHOUGH NOT CONFIRMED.
THERE ARE MANY REASONS FuR
BELIEVING THE REPORT
CORRECT.
TURKEY is IN NEED cF MONEY.
And May Seek the Alliance as IL
Means of Obtaining a
Loan,

LONDON, Jan. 25.-In spite Of the
denials, official and semi-official, that
have been made from many quarter >,
the report of the offensive and defen-
sive alliance between Russia and Tur-
key, which was printed hy the Pail
Mall Gazette on Thursday, is nat yirw-
ed with entire incredulity. Special
dispatches published by the Loi.don
newspapers this morning from the Eu-
ropean capitals, notably from Der lin,
Paris and Vienna, show Il tendency TO
admit the possibility that Il i:usso-
Turkish treaty has been concluded. 1t
is pointed with obvious plausibiliLy
that Turkeys impecunIosI.y may have
driven her to seek an alliance as A
means Of obtaining loan, as was the
case recently with China. If such a
treaty has in fact been concluded, it
will likely be kept a secret until the
last moment. So far there has been no
authentic confirmation of the report
from any quarter.
A dispatch from ConstantinopIe
quotes an interview with the grand
vizier. HALL Riffat Pasha, in which he
is said to have denied the existence of
the reported offensive and defensive
alliance between Russia and Turkey.

Mr.. Jones, of Arkansas, in charge of
the free coinage substitute for the bond
bill, asked unanimous consent that
vote be taken at o'clock on Thursday
next. Mr.. Allen (Pop., Neb.) inter
posed objection
Mr.. Call offered an amendment to
the Armenian resolution to the effect
that humanity and religion and the
principles on which all civilization
rests demand that civilized govern
ments shall by peaceful negotiations,

vent and suppress this cruelties and
massacres inflicted on the Armenian
subjects of the Turkey, by the estab-
lishment of government of their own
people with such guarantees of the
civilized powers of it's authority and
permanence as shall be adequate to
that end
Mr.. Calls motion was laid on the
table and the original resolutions were
then agreed to without division.
On Mr.. Jones' motion it was then
agreed that when the senate adjourned
it be to meet on Monday. He also
gave notice that on Thursday next he
would ask the senate to remain in SeS-
sion until vote was had on the silver
bond bill.

WILL BE VERY WILD,
Committee Resolution Disapproved
nr.I1

SOMm1ttee HeSOIut1On Dis8pprOved
Bayard's Remarks.
WASHINGTON,J Jan. 24-Little doubt
is left by the action of a special COM
mittee of the foreign affairs commit
tee, which met today, that resolution
will be brought before the house next
week expressing disapproval of Am
bassador Bayard's two speeches which
were called to the attention of the
house by Messrs. Mccall and Barrett,
Of Massachusetts,.
The purport Of the resolution will be
a mild censure Of Ambassador Bayard
for the two utterances mentioned, and
an expression Of the opinion Of the
house that representatives Of the
United States abroad should be very
discreet in their public reference to
home politics. 1t is understood that
the subcommittee feels that the pres
ent tension between the British and
American governments over Venezuela
constrains them to recommend milder
form Of censure than they think the
ambassadors remarks would call for
under ordinary circumstances. One Of
them said that while they did not wish
to take any action that would detract
from Mr.. Bayard's standing with the
power to which he is accredited, they
did not feel justified in ignoring his
speeches.

Turkish government to distribute relief
to the distressed Armenians, although
the Red Cross will not figure in the

department today in a cablegram from
the minister to Secretary Olney, in
which he says that-while the porte re-
fuses such permission to the Red
Cross, or to the members of the Red
Cross, as such, and thereby declines
to officially recognize that society, it
will permit any person whom the min
lister names and approves, to distribute
relief in the interior of Turkey, pro-
vided the Turkish authorities are kept
informed of what they are doing.
