moter of trusts, combines and mo-
nopolies, passed the House last
Thursday, and is now in the hands
of the Senate, where it will remain
until the dog days come. If the

forecast, Mr.. Dingley will have to
be given an introduction to his Off

THE direful prediction is made
that the extra session of the Ken
lucky Legislature will not adjourn
before June |. At the cost of 81 900
day, the taxpayers of Kentucky
will be out a nice little sum by that
time. The body has been in session
nearly four weeks and not a single
bill has been made law. The most
of their time has been consumed in
trying to elect Senator.

Lewiston teller. [volume] (Lewiston, North Idaho) 1878-1900, 1897-01-07

The wear just past demonstrated
the vast extent and the positive
value of the mines in the mountain
districts tributary to Lewiston.
The quartz mines require heavy
expenditures of capital to develop
them, and they are as a rule the
property of the original locaeors,
poor prospectors. While no other
business is Of equal value with
paying mines to the country at
large, there is no other industry
so dependent upon the public sup
port in its primary stage of develop
ment. If the holders of & cd
lodges in our mountains could re-
ceive even the benefits of thorough
advertising the benefits to the in
dividuals and to the public would
be incalculable, The plain truths
OF our waiting wealth would bring
capital to the country if effectually
presented. Only second to the
mineral resources are the agricul-
tural and horticultural interests
and they are common in great
measure. Great mines would
make great markets for every pro-
duct of the garden, orchard and
field. Every other district, city
and town in the whole country is
advertising, and some of them at
, our expense, for wealth to develop
sleeping industries. Even the
mines OF the Clearwater basin are
advertised to be tributary to remote
cities and Lewiston is blank on
their maps. The question of a
proper presentation of the resources
OF this country is one for the city,
county. and even the state to con-
slider. A lost opportunity is cal
amity that the people Of this valley
cannot afford. We have the re-
sources at our door to insure i'm
mediate prosperity and if they are
not made Immediately available,
that calamity will come as the price
of neglect.

The cherished hIesS;oo

The cherished blessing of our
free institutions are often degraded
for selfish ends, The freedom of
speech and the freedom of the
press are almost sacred prerogatives
Of the citizens, This freedom is a
boon Of popular government.
When question Of policy has been
submitted to the people and de-
termined by the ballot, the verdict
is supreme law OF the state or the
nation for the legal elective term.
The patriotic citizen will not war
with words or arms against this
expressed will Of the people. And
there should be limit even to the
liberty Of speech When a vita
question has been settled by popu-
lar vote, the true lover of his coun-
trs should submit not only i'm
spirit but by word and act. The
man who brawls against the policy
Of the majority of his fellow citi-
zens is traitor only less in degree

The question OF class educat ion

ing public III the past years, first

ton, and then by The representa-
tive, of other governments There
has been general casting about for
effective means 10 protect the pro,
'ductive industries from the ten
dency of the intelligent young peo-
pie to abandon the farm and the
factory for pursuits that do not re-
qulre manual labor to earn lively
hood 1t has been declared that
education units the farmers son
for the calling of his father, and so
with the children of all other work
ing people. This idea finds many
supporters among the people of
ar stocratic bent OF mind. The
plan suggested is to- educate each
class tor the special, classified
duties, This would strike at the
very foundation OF republican insti-
tutions. Class education would
carry with it the adjustment OF all
personal liberty The idea origi-
mated in an absolute monarch and
it should never be imported into
