CALDWELL SHOULD MOVE.

The lack of direct mail cOmmunica-
ton with the Willow Creek and the
Rock Creek mining districts is big
drawback to this town and ought to be
remedied. There is no reason why the
Boise service could not connect with
the Emmett mail at Middleton or Star
and thereby afford daily service from
both Boise and Caldwell to the mining
camps. If our people will take hold of
this matter and push it theoretically
they viii readily succeed. We believe
that Boise will cheerfully cooperate
with us in this movement as the route
established from there has proved i'm
practicable during the winter months.
In any event, to connect with the Cald-
we'll Emmett mail would not in any
way interfere with the Boise service
and would present many advantages.
No additional service will be re-
quired, nothing added to the distance
and the road is better via Middleton
than on the scheduled route from Boise.
AS a matter of fact the established
route has not been travelled for several
months and the mail contractor claims
that it is practically impossible. We
can not imagine that the people of
Boise would be so utterly mean and
narrow as to make an effort to prevent
Caldwell from enjoying mail facilities
when It can be done without any in.

FOR REFORM GOVERNMENT.

The suggestion of some Democratic
journals that Populists and Democrats
should abandon national issues and
combine on the one idea of govern
ment reform is about the funniest
thing imaginable in view of the fact
that in 1892 they did that same thing
and in consequence of which Mr.. CleYe-
land was inaugurated president. We
suspect the experience of the last three
years will cause people to regard with
strong misgivings any reform move
ment championed by the Democracy,
and the admixture of a tincture of
POpulism, though operating as a cOun-
ter irritant, will hardly allay sus-
picion or invite confidence. But,
really, do not Populists regard this
Democratic proposition as bit of sur
perb gallg The country has just en-
jOyed two years of unrestricted, undi-

ed effects are visible in every quarter
of the land. Labor and capital have

been subdued by it: now, what earthly

uniform effects of Democratic reform
leads to the suspicion that promotion

EDWARD ). CURTIS.

Last Monday morning Edward j.
Curtis laid down the burden OF life and
his spirit passed silently to that mys-
terfous bourne, behind the shadow, to
vhinRIs with the countless generations
that have gone before. He came to
Idaho more than 80 years ago and up
to the day of his death had been al
most continuously in public life, and y
great portion of the time occupying
position of the highest trust and re-
apOnsibility. And, yet, a breath OF
scandal never furnished his good name.
AS servant Of the people, he executed
his trust with dignity and ability, 6del-
ity and integrity. He served as terri
tOrial secretary many years and was
governor, in fact, during a great portion
of the time. And the record he left is
unmarried by a single blotch; for be-
hind the public servant was ever found
the pure motive of an honorable man.
Edward j. Curtis, while admirable in
his public capacity was truly lOveable
in private life. He had heart which
responded to every noble affection and
throbbed for every human affection.
He would deny himself bare necessities
to relieve suffering and distress wher-
ever found. He was noble, generous
self-sacriicing man, loved and respect
ed by all who knew him. His death
was sudden though painless-he fell
into quiet sleep and passed without a
struggle from dreamland to eternity.
Peace to his ashes and consolation to
those who mourn his death.

erency. We certainly had no right to
interfere in controversy of that char
acter. Nevertheless we seriously doubt
the wisdom, not to mention generosity,
of the Mirrors course. A newspaper
risks its dignity when it begins to re-
fleet the private animOsities of the edi-
tor and endangers its reputation when
ever it attempts to crafty them. Aud
because the Double Standard has fall
len into that error, 1t does not follow
that others should tumble in after it.
Yet, the Double STANDARD is much
more excusable than is the AigTOT, be-
cause nature has made it great deal
harder to philOsophize in defeat than
in victory. We all know that 1t re-
quireS almost superhumRn effort on
the part of whipped man to feel char
liable towards the fellow who did the
licking, but TO the man who wins the
battle magnanimity comes perfectly
natural and ought to flow forth in
graceful profusiOn.

as effectually as a high proof decOctiOn
has pulVerized Democracy which, indi-
rectly, is expected to work in the inter
est of good government. But we don't
think the scheme will work. Demo
cratic reform as a good government
tonic is not in popular favor at the
present time, and it is not at all likely
that Populists will care to become in
Oculated with it. However time will
tell and Democratic reform may yet
add another victim to the long list Of
its fatalities, and thus despite itself,
work out government reform.

THE enterprising citizens Of Boise
have succeeded in establishing a min
ing exchange in that city and now we
may expect to hear from the bulls and
bears, 1t is unnecessary to call partic-
plar attention to the many advantages
Switch will flow from such an organiza-
tion, but it should be understood that
its benefits will be far reaching and
that all the towns in this section of the
state should give it hearty support and
endorsement. 1t will facilitate the or
ganizatiOn of mining companies and
attract the attention of capitalists in a
manner that private individuals can
not possibly accomplish. We hope to
see the people of Caldwell cooperate
with Boise in this movement and assist
in making the institution a success on
a broad scale.

The Most Wonderful Part of
Man and the Most Diff
cult to Comprehend.
The System Which Controls
the Entire Body-CarTies
Either Health or
Disease.

The most wonderful part of man,
and most difficult to comprehend, per-
haps, is the nervous system, which
touches and controls every part of the
body. Having its roots in the brain,
its trunk in the spine and its branches
extending into and throughout every
muscle, limb and organ of the animal
frame, it carries either life and health
or disease and death along its course.
The brain secretes a nervous fluid
which is magnetic in its effects and in
fuences. The magnetic element trav-
els along the nerves like electricity,
from the roots of the hair to the tips
of the fingers, and through its tele-
graphic communication permeates the
whole system. When the nervous fluid
is deficient or when the nerves do not
properly transmit it weakness and dis
ease are the invariable results, electric
ity, the wonder of the age, roots the
disease from its stronghold. 1t per-
meates the secret ambush of disease
and eXterminates it, root and branch.
1t removes the wretched symptoms or
lOathsOme maladies, and averts their
dreadful results. 1t relieves more
agony and suffering than tongue can
tell, as the following references will
show: A. Wyatt, better known as
Jewsharp Jack, Boise, Idaho, cured of
deafness, relieved of rheumatism and
other troubles.
Clarence Bunnell, Jefferson, between
First and Second streets, Boise. Pains

The cuban War.

General Marin has been APP
pointed Captain General of Cuba
in place of General Martinez
Campos. In letter from the re-
tired commander, sent by messen-
ger to Key West, because it could
not pass the telegraph censor, he
says he did not resign but was re-
moved. The letter goes on to say:
"The situation is this: Here is
a province, distant from the moth
er country, where the political
parties, by the attitude they are
taking, think to shape the policy
of Spain. Ii they had not this
idea, L could speedily show what
the necessities Of the situ8tion are.
But they know that they would
find me in the way if they SHOULD
ask me to shoot seventeen students
an allusion to the massacre of
students in the last war and be-
cause of this knowledge they con-
spire behind my back. Yes, this
justifes the true saying that Spain
has lost the Americas because of
the Spaniards themselves. This
is country of shopkeepers who
want to govern, and it is they who
are sweeping the country to ruin.
Time will tell if this be not So"
General Valeriano Weyler has
been appointed Governor of Cuba
and is on his way out from Spain.
A dispatch from Havana reports
an interview with General Marin,
Governor pro tenn of Cuba, in
which he said that the situation
there was not dangerous, since the
insurgents were always defeated
in every engagement in which
they took part. He intended, he
said, to organize a fresh plan of
campaign i'll Cuba.
Although MARTINEZ Campos has
declined the post Of President OF
the Supreme Court of Military
Justices, his appointment will,
nevertheless, be gazetted.

THE FARMING WORLD.
BRAIN AND MUSCLE.
The Successful Farmer OF To-Day Uses
Both Hands and Head.

Tho Successful Farmer OF To-Day Uses
Both Hands and Head. :,
The man who uses both brains and
muscle will far outstrip in the race of
life the man who uses only his muscles.
This is true in every calling in which
men engage, but especially is it true in
farming. The farmers who are getting
along the easiest, other things equal,
are those who mix brains with their
work; who plan and systematic their
work; do everything in its season. and
in the most thorough manner possible.
The farmer who, for instance, does not
decide what crops he will plant till
planting time comes; or the one who
breaks his ground regardless of the con-
dition of the soil, plants untested or
doubtful seed in poorly prepared soil,
cannot be said to have mixed enough
brains with his work.
There is 10 doubt that many farmers
would have better profits if they would
rest, recreate and read more and work
fewer hours. There is such thing as
doing too much manual labor. The
farmers, as class, certainly cannot be
accused of being lazy. The majority of
them work too hard, at least during
some seasons of the year. 1t is more
than likely that many do not distribute
their work well, and are, as conse-
| quence, too busy at some seasons and
have too much leisure at others. Here,
again, is where the brains come in. The
work should be planned with a view to
doing it most economically. This can
be done by a judicioLs distribution Of
work which will keep hands and teams
reasonably busy during all seasons Of
the year, instead of hiring help and
rushing at some seasons, and then tax.
ing it easy for considerable spell.
There are times when even the most
systematic farmer is thrown behind
with his work as a result of long wet
spells, or circumstances over which he
has no control, and in order to do worl,
in it's season it becomes necessary to
rush little and work from sun to sun
but, as rule, where sufficient thought
is put into the work, eight or nine
hours is enough for one days work
Fight hours for work, eight hours fol
sleep and eight hours for rest, recrea
tion, study and domestic pleasures
would be good division of the day
With this division there would be am
pie time for reading, thinking, plan
ming and systematizing the work. anc
in addition to the increased pleasures
of life on the farm, the profits would
if any difference, be increased.
The cooperation of brain and muscl
on the farm, however, means NOR
than merely to improve methods o
farming; it means cooperation will

AGRICULTURAL NOTES.

After testing several varieties of flax
the Mississippi station concludes that
flax culture cannot be made profitable
in that state.
The Swedish agricultural college finds
the best time to apply nitrate of soda to
spring wheat to be half at time it
sprouts and half when it is heading.
Experiments with oats in Germany
show that varieties most productive on
one kind of soil are most productive on
all kinds; but difference in food con.
tents was found to be due to difference
in soil and not to difference in variety.
The Alabama station finds more than
six times as much nitrogen in cowpea
vines in tine fall as in the same vines the
next spring, after they had lain on the
ground all winter. The clear Inference
is that the vines should be plowed under
in the fall rather than let them lie or
the surface till spring.
Examinations by experiment stations
show that American clover seed is
clearer than European, and has equal
vitality. Some European seed was
found to be mixed with finely crushed
