INA DIFFERENT LIGHT

The Wallace Tribune cites the
fact that none Of the other mines
in the Coeurd Alenes are having
any trouble with their employees.
Nor does it seem likely they an
ticipate any, for in the last year
two immense mills have been
erected, which goes to show that
mining on big scale for years to
come is in sight. II there was and
fear on the part of the managers
of violence those mills would not
have been built. The Tribune
says the reason there is no fear on
the part of these mine owners is
that they treat their employees
like men and live up to their
agreements. 1t says further, il
the Bunker Hill people lad done
the same there would be no trouble
to-day in the Wardner camp. But
the latter mine, being owned by
the Standard Oil trust, is deter.
mined to crush union labor, and
as has been its policy, reduce
wages to the starvation point
This policy is necessary, becaus,
this is the only mine in the camp
that belongs to the lead trust, anc
in order to squeeze the indepen-
dent mine operators in the Coeul
d Alene it is necessary for it t.
put lead on the market cheape
than its competitors. This cal
only be done by reducing the cos
Of production, which Of cours
means a reduction Of wages Of tn
miners. When it is known that
greater part of the lead in tn
United States is produced aroun,
Wardner, it can be seen how i'm
portant it is for the Standard Oh
people to control the situation.
. We confess the Tribune puts tn
matter in quite a different ligh
from what we supposed were tn
facts.

ABour PARTISAN LINES.

The following high minded advice
from the leading republican paper of
the state, The STATESMAN. ought to be
headed by lot of puny political sheets
in Idaho.
Governor Steunenberg's buster over
the Occur 'AleTe riot ct this time re-
minis the public of the threats he made
against the Whitney murderers. These
murderers are srill at large. steunen-
berg's buster did not even drive them
out of the state The strikers have
the same political influence behind
them that the Whitney murderers had.
Steunenherg has not quite bartering of
fetal honor for political influenc even
in the second term of his official career.
IF the Whitney mHrderers conld with
stand the wrath of the state executive
behind the bfeastwork of political in
iuence why should the strikers who
hold the balance Of power in a great
county, trouble themselves over
Steunenberg's buster Lewiston Tel
/ Ter. ?
It is but simple justice to ask in
what respect has Governor Steunen-
berg clustered in connection with
the Wardner outrage He has re-
Trained from anything like buster.
So far as the Statesman knows he
has not uttered word or performed
an act since the trouble began ha .
ing the appearance Of buster. He
acted promptly. but without blus-
ter; he is acting in the same way
now.
The Statesman believes the gov
ernor is entitled to the hearty sup
port of all good citizens in the
course th.t he is pursuing and for
this reason it would be remiss in
its duty if it failed to point out the
unfairness of the Teller's remarks,
What he has done gives ground
for the belief that he will not stoE
until full justice shall have beer
meted out, and the absence of blus.
ter on his part is added evidence
!, that he is moved by that spirit o.
determination needed to accomp,
fish the result that the people ex-
pect.
Let us give him united support
this is no time for partisan criti-
: cism.-Sta.esman.

UNCALLED FOR.

up in Bear Lake county the county
superintendent of schools Is Mrs. Anna
Osmond. She has just appointed her
husband Us deputy, whereupon the
Logan journal, which always was a
little dull, thinks that in so doing she
has reversed the order of the word
obey" in the marriage contract, and
hopes that she lives up to her privilege
and makes the old man stand around
lively" On the other hand, that ap-
pointment is probably one Of the most
striking exemplifications Of woman's
obedience that has been given in sixty
days We do not know old man Os-
mond bat is it not clear on it's face
that lady who is fitted TO be county
superintendent of schools would prefer
some young man as Deputy It is
clear that she appointed the senior o.,
mond because he told her to, and the
chances arc seven to nine that close
search would show the yarnish of the
furniture where she kicked when she
had to make the appointment. Salt
Lake Tribune.
The above squib is wholly un-
called for. Mr.. Osmond has served
the county efficiently as superin-
tendent of schools, in connection
with the probate iudgship, and il
is only natural that his wife should
appoint him as her assistant. Mrs.
Osmond is perfectly competent TO
do the work alone for that matter,
but, as she is anxious to serve the
peoples interests in the best pos
sible manner, she called in the ex-
perence of the eX-superintendent,
so that nothing ct benefit to the
schools would be overlooked. Il
was perfectly proper and 1.-The old
man" didn't compel her to make
the appointment either. Both Mr.
and Mrs. Osmond are young
people and highly esteemed il
Bear Lake, and the Tribune ISM
helping its popularity any in this
section by writing such stuff.

Tt IS no sign of prosperity be-
cause all or a part of the people
are working, unless a wealth pro-
docer is making more Than bare

When Game Warden Arbuckle
comes to selecting deputy warden
for this county we want to call his
attention to the name of j. F.
OConnor. We don't know that
Mr.. O'Connor would accept, but
we do know, if he would, that Bear
Lake would have a most efficient
officer, one who has for years
taken Il great interest in the fish
and game of this section. He has
also been connected with every
rod and gun club ever organized in
Rear Lake, and has always exer-
cised his best efforts in the pro-
lection of fish and game. There
are others, perhaps, who would fill
the bill acceptably, but none, in
our opinion, would make better
warden than Mr.. O'Connor.

ASKS FOR DAMAGES

 Coal Company

Dc. 4. C. Jordan entered suit in the Cbancery court in this city Saturday morning against the Ar kansas < Texas Consolidated lee & Coal Go.
 The plaintiffs complaint is as fol- lows. He states that on the 18th day of August he was the owner of two horses of the value of $250, one buggy of the value of E$150 aud a set of double harness of the value of $25, and which was used by him in the practice of his profession. That, on the said 2sth day of Aug ust, in obedience to a professional call be visited the home of Capt John s. Bell near the corner of Fe9rth avenue and Oak street, leav- ing his horses attached to the buggy in charge of driver stand ing in front of the named residence upon the public street. He adds that ar ice wagon and mule in charge of a careless servant, struck his buggy and over threw and drag ged the same for some distance, at the same time throwing the plaintiffs driver 10 the ground frightening the horses and causing them to run away and break the buggy and harness and rendering the animals unfit for further use to him. Wherefore the plaintiff prays judgment for the sum of $320 and for other proper relief.

There are bleak, bar ren mountains, and mountains coy cred with forests of pine, on whose slopes are seen the dumps of world famous mines. There are rocky desert wastes where only uncourh eacti fEd footing to give some poor sem blanee of life and hope. There are waterless canyons, and canyons wal!ing tar5id streams, unreclaimed wales dotted with cattle, and broad, irrigated val6y-plains level as a floor, where is cultivated in extraor- dinary profusion nearly every varie- ty of fruit, nut and vegetable not absolutely restricted to the tropics, in addition to an enormous acreage of alfalfa and the ordinary cereals oi the north temperate zone.
 Both north and south of Prescott some pretty engineering problems have been solved, with a picturesque result of rock-cuts, trestles, detours and loops where distance is artifi- ciallY created in order that grade may be overcome. At many points one marvels al the audacious imag- ination of the man who conceived it possible to construct a path for a locomotive through region so des- perately hostile. Here in a gorge uplifted rock-pillars and tremendous boulders lying shoulder to shoulder contest the passage; wonder, on a slope, you may see far below a sec
