The partial loss of the grape crop
this year, caused by the heavy rains, is
estimated to exceed 100000. Farm
ers and vineyards all over the north
ern part of the State have suffered.
While this is true, it is equally II fact
that lost and failing strength may be
restored by the persistent, systematic
use of the great national tonic, Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, which renews
and tones the activity of the stomach,
liver and the bowels, counteracts a ten
dency to rheumatism and kidney com
plant, and prevents malarial disorders.
After eXhausting diseases have run
their course, recovery is greatly accel-
Grated by the use of the Bitters, which
improves appetite and imparts renewed
vigor to the debilitated physique.

To THE PEoPi OF IDAHO:
The Idaho Commission consists o
the following members:
P. B. Shawhan, New Plymouth.
Monte B. Gwinn, Caldwell.
James Hutchinson, Silver City.
Edward Richards, HALEY.
George Chaplin, Idaho Falls.
P. H. Murnane, Montpelier.
j. P. Clough, Salmon.
A. B. Campbell, Wallace.
b. F. Morris. Lewiston.
Jos. Vincent, Kendrick
r. E. Green, Boise.
Appointed by Governor Steunenberg
organized February 1st, with NJ. b.
Gwinn, as Temporary Chairman, r. e
Green Temporary Secretary, and the
undersigned Executive Committee.
The Commission respectfully pre-
sents to the people of the state the fol-
lowing statement and appeal:
SCOPE oE THE FxP-siTlo~.
The Exposition is primarily intended
to embrace the industrial development
and resources of the states west of the
Mississippi River, but Eastern States,
the British Colonies, Mexico and the
Central and South American Republics
will all participate and many Eastern
Governments will be represented.
The buildings and grounds now I'M
der construction and arrangement are
on a scale intended to make the Expo
sition, in extent and completeness, sec
ond only to the Worlds Columbian
Fair
The great army of people that will
visit the Exposition from June till
November will be-
The farmers of the Middle or River
States on which Idaho must mainly de-
pend for its immigration, and the set
Element of its rich but idle land; the
manufacturers and dealers of the East
who will see in the rapidly growing
State of Idaho, field for sharp compe-
tition on all products and goods we
have to buy; and capitalists AMI invest
ors from every quarter of the globe |
who are already looking to the develop
ment of the great mineral and other
resources of Idaho as a most promis-
ing field for profit paying enterprises.
In the state, we now have under ex
isting canals, 100000 acres of the
choicest farm and fruit land in the
world. Of this, less than 100000 acres
are at present nnder cultivation. We
want enterprising farmers to buy these
idle lands. We can not get them with
out organized persistent advertising.
The exposition presents the finest
opportunity to disseminate information
about the state, and to advertize tho
fruits and grains, the mines and lands
we have for sale. We know the state
can extend to the farmer, the horticul- i,
turist and miner as good, if not better
prospects than any other state in the I
Union, and now is the opportune time .
to proclaim it to the whole country. |
The state cannot let the opportunity i
90 by default to other bidders for the '

The Commission will also have the
substantial aid of the State University,
the State Horticultural board and its
force of inspectors, the Horticultural
Societies and the Mining Exchange.
1t is believed that the legislature of
1899 should, and if the business senti-
ment of the state is at its back, that it
will, reimburse the subscribers to this
fund to the amount above mentioned.
To this end the Commission by its
agents throughout the state, will at an
early date solicit subscriptions.
Certificates signed by its officers, will
be given for the same, the total issue of
such certificates not to exceed the
above mentioned $4,000.
In the event OF the legislature max
ing appropriation to reimburse the
subscribers, these certificates, properly
endorsed, will be full evidence of such
subscriptions, and will be paid on pres
entation, as soon as the funds are at
the disposal of the Commission.
The Commission will publish on the
first Of each month a statement of re-
ceipts, and on the 3lst of December,
1898, full detailed statement of re-
ceipts and disbursements.
The entire question depends on the
extent Of the sentiment or approval
that the state press reflects in the next
thirty days.
The Commission presents this APP
peal for moral and financial support to
the loyal people of the state.
