A. Clark, a pioneer surveyor, was
called to the north fork of the Clear
water by G. G. Van Arsdal, the
Northern pacific engineer in charge,
to straighten out complicated piece
of work. He returned yesterday,
having completed his task. Mr..
Clark made a preliminary survey in
1887 over the Nez Perez trail in to
Montana. Wren q Greenough have
unloaded over 40 cars of tools and
supplies for the Clearwater extension
within the last month at this place.
The Northern Pacific bridge across
the Potlatch is practically completed
and the false work removed. Con-

tracklaying from the east end of the

THE MASOUE RAISED.

We notice in the press dispatches
that the house coinage, weights and
measures committee on the 21st inst. +,
by a strict party vote, ordered o
favorable report on the substitute for
the Hull bill to fix the standard of value
In the United States and for other
purposes. The dispatch says.
The bill provides In substance. that
the standard OF value In the United States
shall be the gold dollar; that greenbncks
shall be retired, and upon retirement gold
bills shall be substituted therefor.
No silver dollars are to be hereafter
coined except from bullion now in the
treasury. The retirement of the green
backs provision is for the irst five wears,
an amount equal to the increase OF ma
tional bank notes issued subsequent to
the taking effect OF the act, 90 per cent to
be retired annually during the next Ave
years, and greenbacks to cease to be legnl
tender at the end Of ten years. Gold and
currency certificates are TO be Cancelled as
paid and not reissued no national ban
notes under $40, and no silver certificates
over %, are to be issued.
The tax on national banks Is to be
changed from the circulation TO netenth
OF one per cent on capital surplus and
undivided profits.
The bill repeats all existing regulations
on The withdrawal and issue OF national
bank notes at will; banks may issue notes
to full value Of bonds deposited National
banks with Il capital OF $25, 600 and in
cities OF 1000 may be established; branch
banks may be provided under regulations
OF the comptroller of the currency.
During the last campaign, in com
mon with the silver press all over the
country, we insisted that the republi-
can party, far from being friend to
silver, or desiring, rs result of in
ternational agreement or otherwise.
any extension of the use of silver
money or paper based thereon, was
in reality committed to the designs of
the gold plutocracy of Wall Street,
and warned the masses of the people
whose very liberty and existence is
threatened by the success of such
designs, OF the probable legislation
republican success at the polls would
see enacted.
The conspiracy against the public
welfare has been long considered by
the bond holders in the east; until
1898, the money power, while in itself
united, gave its support to one or
the other great political parties,
which ever it had reason to believe
would best serve its interests. In
1893, during Cleveland's second adj
ministration, the democratic party so
unqualifiedly declared its opposition
to monometallism-although it is true
the use OF patronage influenced many
congressman and senators to grant
the demands of the money power in
the repeal of the purchase clause of
the Sherman bill that the Wall
Street sharks used every endeavor to
strengthen and cement their hold on
the republican party. How success
full their endeavor was is being now
being evidenced. The party whose
natal cry was liberty and equality, is
now the champion and defender of
the octopus OF wealth whose tentacles
are chains on our freedom and whose
venomous beak is tearing the culver
ing flesh from the breast OF the wealth

1t is vile conspiracy that is now
disclosed, one the most damnable
ever conceived; and how skillfully
the conspirators have chosen their
time for its disclosure. 1t was not
enough that corrupt influences, such
as those disclosed at New Orleans,
should give them a national conven-
lion, creature of their designs, and
thereby presidential candidate
mortgaged to one of their number;
nor that intimidation and the use of
the largest corruption fund ever sub
scribed should enable them to elect
an executive and congress pledged to
do their bidding but fearing the
good sense and rational beliefs of
their dupes would be awakened, they
divert public attention to the glories
OF successful war and the great
business revival experienced in trad
ing circles in our country because of
the misfortunes ofother nations, and
refuse or ignore, on every occasion,
to discuss the important measures
contemplated TO be enacted. The
crying, cowardly wretches who feared
their business interests would be hurt
by war every dictate of conscience
and humane thought demanded,
howled so piteously that for months
and years the hand of the nation was
stayed, and when, the nation assert
ing itself, war broke out and as
quickly ceased, our soldiers and sail.

ing for thirty years. Ever since the

agement far from reforming its in
mates is in reality criminal kinder
garten, apenitentiary primary school
This partly because children with de-
PRAYED tastes and criminal leanings
are herded together, missing that
best of all stimulants to correct life,
example, and association with those
relatives and friends who love them :;
partly because there is a stigma of
disgrace attached to an enforced res
idence in such an institution that,
clingng in after life, checks the
growth of good principles, develop
ing indifference and stubborness; and
for another season, because children
being initiative, that one going in
with one fault quickly learns others
from its associates, coming out a
graduate in evil practices.
For these reasons then we think
our Legislators should pause before
passing law creating such an insti-
tuition.
1t does not reform.
1t is q hot bed for crime.
1t is a costly experiment
The evil complained of would how
ever, still exist, to correct it we sug
gest the consideration of the follow
ing:
The Legislature should authorize
the governor to name a commission
OF prominent citizens-serving with
out pay or at nominal salary-whose
duty should be in substance to keep
a list of suitable persons who are
willing to care for child, hoy or
girl; examine all bonds given in suit
able sums by such applicants condi-
toned for the faithful care and edu-
cation of any such child committed
to their charge; and pay such persons
some proper sum, say 800 each year,
while any such child is in his or her
care; examine into the character and
means OF the persons willing to take
such children, and from time to time
investigate the manner in which the
trust is being fulfilled Provisions
should also be made so that other
poor children-orphans or those with
incompetent parents-besides those
committed as incorrigible might be so
provided for.
The beneficial result of such a
law would be certain. Many unfor.
tunate little ones would in this way
find homes, perhaps in time parents
by adoption, get proper schooling,
and learn some vocation, farming or
mechanical, by which they would in
time become taxpayers instead of tax
eaters. The little allowance or bonus
paid by the state would compensate
for their care when of tender Years
and many, so adopting children would
allow it to accumulate for their ben
eft in later years.
The above will stand elaboration
and we believe would be successful.
We do not believe children are ever
incorrigible. Kindness and love will
DO what force and restraint cannot
