Our Banner Mining Camp.

A correspondent writing from
Warren says the general impress
sion in that camp is that the bust
ness men of Grangeville and the
FREE PRESS are sighting Warren
and the people in there resent it.
The particular grievance seems to
be that the commissioners did not
appoint a road viewer for that
section. But why hold Grange
vile responsible for the commissions
Of the commissioners? The inter-
est of Grangeville business men as
well as of the FREE PRESS, lies in
promoting the accessibility and
welfare of all sections, and the
charge that we are indifferent or
antagonistic to any particular sec
ton is preposterous. In so far as
the FREE PRESS is concerned, its
editor has repeatedly gone before
the Board and begged that an APP
preparation be made to place the
wagon road from Florence to War
rem in substantial order. We have
also given this same matter col
umns and columns of space in the
FREE PRESS in the past and expect
to keep at it until the road is open
ed as permanent thoroughfare.
And in 50 far as sighting the camp
in other ways is concerned, can
only say that the columns Of the
FREE Press are now, as they have
ever been, open to the publication
of correspondence from Warren
equally with other camps.
But the correspondent makes
some effective points for Warren.
He says:
"Warren now has more people
on the pay roll than any other
camp in Idaho county. We are
the only camp in the county that
has q stamp mill running. We
are the only camp that has dredge
running, and we are the only camp
in the county that sends out bull
ion. We expect by July l to have
more people in Warren than all
the other camps of Idaho county
put together. Grangeville ought
to do all our trading. AS it is, all
our meat, flour, eggs and butter
come in over the snow from Wash
ington county, while the road tc
Grangeville is clear of snow, and il
put in repair, you could ship in
here by wagons for the past three
weeks. Warren is in Idaho
county, but Washington county
hauls our freight and gets our
trade. The road to Grangeville il
open six weeks earlier in the
spring and six weeks later in the
fall than the road to Weiser, and
as the distance is the same, Grange
vile and Lewiston out to get all
our trade. We think your bust
ness men ought to get move on
and see to it that the road from
Florence to Warren is put in shape
for hauling freight. Your Camas
prairie freighters have lost $4,000
of freight money in the last three
years through not keeping the
road to Warren OPEN"

How to Keep Sweet Potatoes

There are half dozen ways of keep
ing sweet potatoes through the winter
in Virginia. one being to lift a stone of
the old-fashioned hearth, and put the
potatoes underneath. Warmth and
dryness, the essential conditions, are
thus obtained. The white potato, on
the other hand, is placed in a barrel
sunk deep in the garden and well COW
cred up. Either is delicious baked in
the ashes Of the hearth.

1T is not generally known that the
young fiat fish have an eye on each side
OF the body, and that it is only in the
adult stage that the eyes are both ON
one side. There has been much dis
cusslon among scientific men as to the
mode in which the change takes place,
out in the founder the eye has been
observed to travel over the Ridge of the
mead, while in some other fish it passes
directly through the soft tissue of the
young fish to the other side.

listen to our side Of the question.
From documents in our possession
we think we can convince any fair
minded man that the great majority
OF the natives OF Hawaii are opposed
to annexation. If, from our show
ing, the United States is not assured
OF this fact, we shall ask that vote
be taken"

arms,

ballot be open the very men who
have refused TO sign our memorial
will vote against annexation"
"Theu some Hawaiians have re-.
fused to sign the petition against
annexation"
I, Mr.. Kaula, who had sat listening
quietly, bis grave face and dark eyes
turned upon his moro vivacious col
league, spoke now,
NEARLY twenty one thousand Ha-
wsiians have signed the memorial
we are taking to Washington. The
men, the natives, who have refused
to sign, tell us that it would
hurt their business or jeopardize
their positions if their names
we're added to our petition. But
they are with us in feeling, and as
John-Mr Richsrdson-says, if it
comes to vote they will forget
every other consideration aud re-
member only that their country is
being taken from them"

1t is hardly necessary to refute

to prove his lack Of veracity. II
Hawaii was annexed as a State, as
Mr.. Morgan advocates, Hawaiians
would be elected to the Offices in
the gift OF the people. II Hawaii
should be admitted to the Great
Union as a Territory, the Hawaiian
voters would still control the ap-

then should the Hawaiians "who are
hoping for offices under a possible
monarchy" as Mr., Morgan claims,
oppose annexation?
