The change from district attoi
ney to county attorney is the most
important official change Of the
new year. The large field of three
counties gave the public adviser
too much room in which to shilk
duty There was never a GER
tainty Of his presence except on
pay day or when there was bank
account on tap. And besides the
real need Of an adviser is most APP
parent in the institution of cases,
and i'll the affairs that Of them
selves are not of great magnitude.
The prosecution is the guardian Of
the peace. This duty can be e.
fectivcly performed only when the
officer is present The public will
be imposed upon in a thousand
ways. Unless there is public
guardian ever present. No officer
is more intimately associated with
the public than the county attor-
ney, He applies the law which

1t has been held by the high
court of England that father who
depended upon Christian science
to heal sick c hid and refused to
call regular doctor was guilty of
manslaughter The learned Judge
particularized that the experience
and intelligence of man showed it
to be necessary to call the aid OF
medical science In cases of sickness,
aud that the failure to do so was
criminal neglect. The learned
judge regarded the particular re-
ligions belief OF the prisoner as
dangerous to the public welfare
and held that his peculiar belief or
faith did not justify disregard of
the benefits of the science Of
medicine.

The railroad situation in Che
Lewiston valley is discussed In the
papers Of London, New York and
of all cities Of the Pacific coast
These discussions are influenced
by individual prejudices very often
but the needs of the country are
generally recognized, ard our i'm
portance is widely advertised. The
papers with one accord say the
Clearwater basin is tie richest I'm
developed district in the wcrld
This fact alone should be Of great
value to this district. The princi-
pie involved in the discussions at
large is the jurisdiction OF two
great railroad companies. The
people here should hold to the
policy and the course that would
warrant The best service. We
should promote if possible com
petative liles. We cannot afford
TO favor one road above another.
The interests of the country dc
mand cheap and efficient transpor-
tation facilities. The Orcgonian
makes a strong argument for The

The small district schools of the
state should receive some attention
at the hands of the lawmakers
during the present session. The
new districts in the county, and
especially those on the reservation
have very imperfect school facili-
ties. The state has ample reserve
fund for school purposes, but there
exists an embarrassing present
condition. IF we could draw upon
the future the end could justify
the means in this case. We should
even make sacr fee to build up the

The suggestion is made that
organized effort would promote
the gateway idea of Capitalization
OF business at Lewiston. An indie
pendent railroad system would de
velop the advantages Of this point
very materially at this time. Lew
iston controls wealth enough TO
force the railroad issue. The spirit
.of opposition inaugurated from
this standpoint Of advantage would
inspire respect for the policy in
volved III the movement. With ali
aggressive policy the city's COM
nleIcial dependencies could be in
definitely extended into the in
terror farming districts, lumber
woods and mining camps, aud
every business alliance would in
wife co-operation in common
causes. If Lewiston had a feeder
railroad, like the Hunt or the Cor

basin, all other systems would be
