American market excess "a
sL.ates. MulhalI figures.

Hero We have a comparison Of the value
OF the American market with foreign mar
kets in 1892 and again in lss6. Under pro-
lection in 1892 the American market was
worth 81, $40 eco, 900 more than all the for
eign markets which 1t was possible for us
to acquire. Even under the disastrous
Democratic free-trade policy In 1856, our
market was worth mere than S43, 90 90 GO
above all possibilities In foreign markets.
Yet the free traders want US to throw
away our vast substance for the paltry
foreign shadow-to give them our meat in
return for their bone.

The trip to Ceur d'Aleue City via Il Q
Narrow Guage railroad and the river
and lake route, is one of the pleasantest
to be found in the northwest. The
steamer George Oakes affords the most
comfortable accommodations for pas
sengers. The spacious rooms are kept
scrupulOusly clean, and are made still
more attractive by rows Of beautiful
potted plants and the songs OF canary
birds. Purser j. l. Shallis is a great
lover of flowers, and many a rare bot
quet from his magnificent flower
garden at Cpur d'Alene adorns the
the dining table on the George Oakes.
Captain George Reynolds is as genial
and iovial commander as ever boarded
steamer, and every body on the boat
is accommodating and obliging, so that
it is no wonder that parties come all the
way from Spokane to the Mission and
return for the sole enjoyment of the
ride over the beautiful Ceur d'Alene
lake and river. This will always be a
popular route during the summer

The New Sheer Law.

Judge Piper has held that the new
sheep law Is Unconstitutional We be.
lieye that the same point was raised rs
was ruled upon by Judge Stanrod at
NJ dad in which he held that the sheep
law was good and imposed a fine for its
violation. Whtn Judges disagree
there is chance for the supreme
court, where we suppose the matter
will finally iind its way, The north
Idaho case is reported in the following
special from Moscow:
Judge piper, before leaving for Mt.
Idaho yesterday, pronounced the sheep
law passed by the last legislature un-
constitutional. The law required the
clipping of all sheep that were to be
driven into the state This was to be
done at least 20 miles from the line,
and the sheep were afterwards to be
inspected by state sheep inspectors.
McGregor brothers, Of Hooper, Wash,
determined to test the law, and after
having their 10000 sheep inspected and
pronounced perfectly healthy by Dr. S.
ID, Nelson of the Washington Agricul,
tural college. state veterinarian, notified
District Attorney McNamee and drove
the sheep across the line some ten days
snee. McGregor brothers had no range
IL Washington where such a number of
sheep could be kept pending the dipping
and failed to see the necessity of going
to the expense of having such a number
OF healthy sheep dipped. They were
represented before Judge Piper by
Sweet 4 Steele, while District Attorney
MeNamee, who made the complaint,
appeared for the state. II was claimed
that the law was unconstitutional as it |
opposed free transportation across the |
state. Were the law constitutional 1t |
would be necessary to stop train or
carload OF sheep in transit and dip /
them. The part Of the law decided un-
constitutional was that healthy sheep 1
must be dipped. Notice of bad health /
must be given the Inspector McGregor
brothers fined 500 each and five cents /
per sheep, total Of 500. Their at
tlrneys asked for a writ of habeas I
corpus and got decision. The result /
l important to the whole state"

A circumstantial account of a dog
marriage" has been given to the world
through the medium of the Paris press
AS the story is published, it would ap-
pear that Madame Maurice Ephrussi,
early last week issued invitations to her
friends to attend the wedding ceremony
of her pet poodle with a dog belonging
to NJ. Gustave Rothschild. When the
guests, who included most of the fash
iOnable society of Paris, arrived at the
EQhrussi mansion, they were ushered
into drawing room brilliantly lighted.
at the end of which was a table be-
hind which sat a clever performing
bulldog who impersonated the Mayor
The canine bride, who wore a white
satin gown trimmed with costly lace
and a wreath of orange flowers, was
escorted to the altar by a venerable
poodle in a blue frock-coat with but
tons. The bridegroom arrived in a
regulation swalloW-tau coat, white era
vat and satin Waistcoat. Both dogs are
sad to have behaved with becoming
decOrum during the ceremony, after
which the canine party proceeded to a
banquet on all fours.
