eeries, or a dress for Molly, just Of
Ser him your butter, eggs, hides or
farm produce and see what he will
do. Tell him that there is new

him donate n few dollars toward 1t.
Tell him the home merchants pay
taxes to keep up the bridges, roads
and schools and contributes to the
support of the church, and he
should throw off enough on his
commission to enable you to pay
the home merchants share when
he goes out of business through lack
of patronage given to the travelling
oeddler. Tell him also that money
will be a little scarce next year
and you would like him to carry
YOU three or four years. If ne is a
good fellow" and agrees to do all
you ask, he is as good as the home
merchant and you should patronlze
him. But if he refuses to do as
your home merchant has done, turn
the old dog loose and have business
at the other end of the farm while
he is entertaining the peddler. You
will have the respect of your neigh
bors, and home dealer worthy OF
YOUR confidence and always ready
and willing to extend you favors.

Hit by an Engine.

II. G. Whittall, an aged man oil
nearly 20 years, was struck by an
engine coming down the stoep grade
west Of the depot, about six o'clock
Saturday evening and is no doubt
fatally injured. At time of going
to press he was not expected to sur
vive the night
The blow was received upon the
left breast. The breast bone was
caved in, the shoulder dislocated
and several ribs broken lie has
since been suffering internal hem
orrhages and | il not thought pos
sible for him to recover.
The accident happened while Mr..
Whittall was walking up the track
on his way to the home Of his SON
in-law, Ed. Lloyd, near the fair
grounds. He knew the engine was
coming and stepped off the track to
avoid it, but at this point the path
way beside the track was very mar
row and he failed to get far enough
out in the darkness and was struck
terrible blow, which threw him
down a steep back Of rip-rap, mar
rovly escaping going into the river.
1t was some time before all
reached him. Thos. Hamblen was
in the vicinity and heard the cries
of the injured man and went to his
reecue some time after the accident.

The raising of the Maria Teresa

at Santiago, involved the simple
proposition of removing the rock
that projected up through the bot

The work of blasting out the rock
was begun as soon as the arma-
ment had been removed from the

Wheat in the Lewiston Valley.
The farmers who are directly
tributary to Lewiston have prsc
tically finished hauling their wheat
Large quantities are held at home
this year to avoid the payment of
storage and with lew of using it
for feed for beef stock if the price
does not advance materially. 1t
has been demonstrated that wheat
is worth so cents and better to feed
10 beef steers. An advance above
that figure would bring into market
a large reserve. There is now in
the Lewiston warehouses $4,000
bushels and at points above Lew.
ieton on Snake river within SIX
miles there are 225,000 bushels
This makes a total of 100000 bush
els and the reserve held at home
will swell this sum to 100000 bush

900 bushels more swelling our sur
