How to get to Lewiston.

That is now an easy question to answer.
The movement from the east to the Paci-
&c Northwest is reported by the railroads
as being greater than ever before. At
last the railroads are doing their part.
The two homeseekers' excursions for
March reused such response, over 300
leaving Chicago alone by the first one,
that the Northern Pacific promptly an
uouuced that, commencing March 2Ist,
daily until further notice, second class
tickets will be sold from eastern terminals
to any point ON its lines at one-half the
lowest first class fare. This means rate
from St. Paul to Lewiston of only $23.75.
The Oregon Railroad & Navigation
company informs us that the above
named rate of $23.7s is also in effect over
the Great Northern, the Union Pacific,
the d. &R. G., and all other lines con-
Meeting with the o. R. & N. via Spokane
or Huntington, from all Missouri river
points, and also from points west of there
in Minnesota, the Dakotas, Montana,
Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Utah, Colorado,
etc.
Thus it is seen by our eastern readers,
that all roads lead to Lewiston. that they
can easily reach Lewiston at low cost any
time this spring.
If they want to go further into the
Buffalo Hump mining district, they will
find the stages all start from here, that

From Assessor Speaker.

EDITOR TELLER: ask liberty to COM
municate n few lines through your worthy
paper to the taxpayers of Nez Perez
county. ~
Our new assessment law does not show
much good feeling toward the best citi-
zens of our county, which are the farm
ers and honest laborers. 1t is in favor Of
class of people who have means and
ways to escape just taxation, and some
Of their just dues are burdened on the
just toiler and producer, who cannot hide
his property. The trainers of our new
law affecting the assessor perhaps never
exhibited the duties of county assessor,
as it seems to HE they dictated unjust and
almost cruel and ancient ages-like, and
not becoming free and self-governing
highly-civilized people.
Let us see how it reads: "If any prop
erty shall ultimately escape taxation for
any year, and such fact shall be made
known to the board of county commits
sioners before final settlement and pay
ment of salary due TO any assessor during
whose administration such property
was not assessed, it shall be the
duty OF the board to deduct from any
ainonnt when due or to become due such
assessor as salary or otherwise the amount
o. taxes on the property not assessed;
provided, however, that the assessor shall
oe subrogated to the lien Of the state and
county for such taxes, and If any asses
sol snail willingly and knowingly list, or
assess, or shall suffer to be listed, assessed
OF returned upon the assessment roll of
MS county, any property.real or personal,
al an amount less than its fair cash valua-
uon' he shall be and is hereby declared
!" De guilty of a misdemeanor, and upon
conviction thereof shall be fined in any
sum not less than one hundred dollars
nor more than three hundred dollars for
saeh offense. One-half of any such fine
eoiiected shall be paid to the person or
persons informing against and prosecut-
ing such violation Of the law, and the
o'ner one'half shall be paid into the
county treasury for the use of the general
SCHOOL fund of the county where such
conviction is had.''
our lawmakers intend to let us suffer
,oi negligence of former assessors, which
presume is malicious and unjust in the
e.reme. 1t provides penalty and pun
,shment If the assessor does not perform
ms duties to perfection, but it does not
'4se him in its care and protection like
'.ner citizens, if cowardly and mali.
nous Toe should impose upon him.

1t has been noticed that horses that
have been out on pasture for some time
will frequently seem To take cold or
develop a case of nasal catarrh when
taken up and kept in the stable. If the
stable is very close and warm and no
protection is given TO the horse to pre-
vent him from taking cold when
brought out. he is liable to be affected
by the change during very cold weather.
Sometimes. also. the stable is too open
and he has 10 stand in n draft when
brought in warm from work. In such
cases cold may frequently follow the
neglect. In many cases. however the
eatarrh or cold may be prevented BY
seeing that the stable is free from filth
and impure air.-Farmers' Review.

SALT FOR STOCK.
supply of IL should Be Kept IN
Every Field Accessible to All
Kinds OF Animals.

Some experiments made in France
showed that stock having a regular sup
ply of salt were more thrifty and made
better use of the feed they ate than
those deprived Of salt for a consider
able time.
Salt is one of the necessities of animal
existence and even wild animals travel
long distances TO seek salt in the shape
OF salt springs of bracksh water. Salt
is the great cleanser of the blood and
performs an important mission in ami
NAL economy. and as il is very cheap II
should be supplied TO all live stock in
liberal quantities.
A supply of salt should be kept in
every pasture field and accessible 10 the
animals al all times. The common Gus
tom of sailing stock once a week is
a very poor way TO supply the needs of
the stock. The strongest ones will get
enough. possibly, but the weaker ones,
and these are the ones that need il most.
will be kept back and never get full
supply. One of the best ways 10 supply
live stock with salt is to buy rock salt
anu pldct Sldus VI ~ ~ Ii"''S t'h''f-
lent for the stock TO get at il. The
weather has but little effect on il and
stock can get all they need by simply
sucking the salt slab.
TO feed il to horses put piece in the
feed box where they can get il AT any
time. This does not interfere with feed
ing the horses and at the same time a
little Of the salt gets on all the grain
given them. Even pigs will lick block
OF rock salt. although a good many
people never think of sailing the pigs.
