ALTGELD AND LINCOLN.
John j. Lentz Compares the Anarchist
with the Martyr President.

John j. Lentz Compares the Anarchist
with the Martyr President.
The Democratic speakers never lose
an opportunity to parade themselves
as the followers of Lincoln. How lit
tie they appreciate what the martyred
president really stood for is strikinc'v
illustrated by this outrageous declara-
ton of John ]. Lentz at the Cooper
union meeting in New York recently.
He said:
There is no man TO compare with
Jefferson in this generation except Alt
geld. God in his wonderful chemistry
sees fit to raise up once in generation
a man fit to be favored. He raised up
Washington, "a years later he pro-
duced Jefferson, in another generation
Jackson, after 80 years more Lincoln,
and now in the closing days Of the
century we have Altgelt who is the
martyr Of this decade"
No wonder decent Democrats hang
their heads with shame at such utter
ances. To compare Lincoln, the savior
OF the Union, with Altgeld, the anar-
chist, is a striking demonstration OF
how far the Democratic leaders are
from any true appreciation of what
Lincoln believed and was to the Amer
lean people.

CONSTITUTIONAL.
Philippines Ours by "the Supreme Law
of the Land"

Rhnipplnes ours Dy 'tne supreme Law
of the Land"
The United States acquired the Phil
ippine Islands by the Paris peace
treaty, ratified by the senate, Article
VI of the constitution says: "All
treaties made, or which shall be made,
under the authority Of the United
States, shall be the supreme law Of
the land"
The presidents oath of Office is: 81
do solemnly swear that will faith
fully execute the Office Of president Of
the United States, and WILL to the best
of my ability, preserve, protect and de-
fend the constitution of the United
States"
Hence, If President Mckinley relin-
quished the Philippine Islands to Agui-
naldo he would violate "the supreme
law of the land" and would lay him
self liable to impeachment proceed
ings.
The only alternative is to preserve,
protect and defend the treaty which
is "the supreme law Of the land" That
is all that President Mckinley has

Thar Mythical AIIianoe.

W. ]. Bryan recently said that the
"foreign born voter could not under

mated that the foreign born voter is
too ignorant to comprehend Bryan's
free silver theories. The plank in the
Ohio Democratic platform which
speaks of "a secret and vicious alli-
ance now in evidence between England
and the Republican administration"
was inspired b. Bryan and written by
one of Mclean henchmen. The man

The advantages of closer relations
with Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and
the Philippines are already illustrated
hy the increased sales of the products
of our farms and factories to those
islands. An official statement just is
sued shows that expectations from the
United States to these four islands OF
groups of islands during the fiscal
year 1879 were double the average an
nual sales to them during the past
three years and considerably in excess
of the very large sales made 10 them
dnring the reciprocity years under the
Mckinley act, when our markets i'll
Cuba and Porto Rico were greatly en-
larged. The exports TO each Of these
islands shows an increase in the fiscal
year 1899 over 1898, and including the
entire list amount to $3l,0l1,1 1876
against $17,1O2,5 ,551 in 1898, $1i,761, 1896
in 1897, and S19, Isl ,127 in 1896.

A startling incident, of which Mr..

subject, is narrated by him as follows:

My skin was almost yellow, my eyes
sunken, tongue coated, pain continually
in back and sides, no appetite-gradu-
ally growing weaker day by day. Three
physicians had given me up. Fortu-

Treating Insomnia.

So many people suffer from insomnia
nowadays that it is wonder they do
not adopt the time honored custom of
French kings and indeed of our an
cestors generally, the zen cas-" by the
bedside, the meal Of fruit or bread and
cold chicken, put ready in case of
wakefulness. Many merry little meal
might be eaten in the middle Of the
night, when thoughts crowd on the
mind and care sits heavy. 1t is the
wakeful digestion that claims its due
and clamors to be fed. Our forefa-
theirs were wise, and many a hunter
after old furniture knows the quaint
little cupboard with grated door
which served for the night meal and is
now sometimes labeled a cheese cup
board. A bedside book is of no use
when the pangs Of hunger make for
mastery, but with a book and a
smack" one can contrive to pass
some pleasant hours, even when sleep
does not touch ones eyelids and the
sweet boon Of unconsciousness evades
ones grasp.-New York Times.

DO you know it is splendid thing
to think that the woman you really
love will never grow old to you?
Through the wrinkles of time, through
the mask of years, if you really love
her, you will always see the face you
loved and won. And woman who
really loves a man does not see that
he grows old; he is not decrepit to
her; he does not tremble: he is not
old; she sees the same gallant gen
tleman who wOn her hand and heart.
| like to think of it that way. l like
to think that love is eternal, And to
love in that way and then go down the
hill of life together, and as you 80
down, hear, perhaps, the laughter OF
grandchildren, while the birds of JOY
and love sing once more in the leailes>
branches of the tree of age.-Ingerso!l

Eulogy of Maj. McCOnyille.

No, T O. Hanlon of Nez Perce the
4,,e Statesman with this biography OF
7 eyistons hero:
The late Major Meconville of the First
p.cr;,,ent Idaho Volunteer infantry,
aho fell in the recent engagement with
the Filipino insurgents near Manila, and
. .,t,ose loss in common with people OF
ar state, deeply mourn, went out
nth me in 1868 in the 9Th United States
,.ol,rteer cavalry and was assigned to
5rtv with independent cavalry brigade,
o,,,nosea Of 4he end Massachusetts, cav
,1rv 10th New York cavalry and 18th
Now York cavalry, then stationed at
paIIs Church, Fairfax county, Va, Army
of The Potomac. Upon our arrival at the
cont was transferred to the artillery and
consequently did not serve with said
.a,itneut during the war. During the
famous Shenandoah campaign the brigade
- which Comrade McConville's regi-
,nent belonged did gallant and heroic
service i'll intercepting General Jubal A.
FarIy's advance upon Washington, and
the defense of our national capital was
mainly due to the intrepid gallantry and
stubborn resistance of said brigade.
1t was my privilege to meet my late
comrade McConville i'll common with
many of his regiment on the skirmish
line in front of Fort Stevens and only
seven miles from Washington bravely bat
ding win the advance of Earlys forces
estimated to be $1,000 strong, which they
held in check until reinforced by the 9th
army corps to which my battery belonged
NV late comrade (McConvilleJ then told
me of two of my friends in his company
who fell, saying they died with their
faces to the foe.
Again / met him i'll Washington, d. c.
Immediately after the grand review al
the close of the war, when we congratu
lated ourselves upon our still being il
still in the land of the living. He spoke
fcelingly of comrades who fell in battle
saying their memory would ever live.
About eighteen months ago visited him
at Lapwai where he was enga ged as SUI
perintendent of Indian instruction. L
was an enjoyable visit. He was an es
TENED and respected citizen, beloved
by all who knew him. An honored citi
izen, kind husband and devoted father
may his memory be forever be forevel
enshrined in the hearts of grateful ant
loyal people.

The Big Bridge.

The progress of the Vineland bridge Is
apparent these days to all observers The
false work extends to pier No 5 and the
iron has been put in place on the
temporary structure across two spans.
This false work is extended far enough
to eliminate all inconvenience from any
probable rise i'll the river. Some delay
has been occasioned by the delay i'll
transportation of material caused by the
interference of bad weather i'll the east
and on the railroads generally.
A large shipment of material has ar
rived at Riparia and this will be landed
here during next week beginning with a
cargo on the steamer due tomorrow.
The material for this great structure
was shipped by both the Northern Pa
cific road and by the o. r. s; y. route.
The portion of the iron to be placed from
the west bank of Snake was shipped to
arrive by boat to avoid transfer by teams
over the ferry. This portion is all yet to
arrive. The work on the piers ON the
west end of the bridge has not vet pro
crossed sufficiently to make early ship
ment of this material necessary The
timber and the cement have been shipped
by the O. R. & N.

Our Wheat.

The comparative quality of the wheat
of the inland empire has never been def
initely determined, or if SO the know-
edge has never been disseminated for the
public. The following from Mr.. c. 4.
Hoyt, superintendent of one of the larg-
est -four mills in the east, is good author
ity on this subject. Through the Orego-
MAN Mr.. Hoyt says of our wheat and our
country:
81 have also been in Eastern Oregon
and Washington, and into the state OF
Idaho, as far as Mount Idaho, visiting
with Mr.. Judson, Lewiston, on the Snake,
at its junction with Clearwater, and the
Camas Prairie country, an empire in it
self, looking over the mill and testing
the -four qualities of the wheat raised on
that prairie, and / find it of the best
quality for the manufacture of flour to
meet the demands of the Oriental trade
and l can safely predict very bright
future for that portion of Idaho as soon
as railroads penetrate it so that the farm
ers can sell their wheat for milling pur-
poses instead of feeding it to stock, as
they do now OH account of the cost o
reaching markets

A Cattleman'S Experience.

w. J. Clemans, the wealthy merchant
and cattleman of Anatone, was almost
drowned in the Grande Ronde river last
Tuesday. He was crossing at the Schu-
maker ford on horseback when big ice
foe struck the horse and knocked him
off his feet, passed over herse and rider,
and rolled and ground the man on the
bottom until he was almost insensible.
When the ice foe released him Mr..
Clemans was separted from his horse. He
struggled and SWAN in the floating ice till
he reached an oYerhanging bough He
chung to that for nearly an hour when he
was rescued. He suffered frightfully
| from the effects of the cold water He
was inst ready to despair and consign
himself to death when aid reached him.
Mr.. Clenans suffered great agony even
after he was rescued and warmed at the
hearths of friends. He was removed to
| his home at Anatone, but still he could
not recover from the cramps caused by
the chill. 1t were thought for time
that he had sustained internal injuries by
the process of grinding against the rocks
under the ice. DR.. Morris was called to
attend the sufferers, and he reports favor
ably on the case at last accounts.

Our Opportunity.

1t is generally agreed that there will
be an opportunity this year for Idaho to
attract more capital for investment in
mines than for many years past. Indeed,
says the Statesman it is the opinion of
those best posted that it is possible to
secure more money for the development
of our mineral resources than has been
brought into the state in any three or
four Years that have gone before. The
developments i'll the Seven Devils, at
Baf'alo Hump, on the Salmon river, in
Boise basin, on the Boise river and at
other points are such that there should
be great attention attracted to them this
season.
AT Buffalo Hump there are now many
sales being made at good figures. The
properties changing hands are mere
prospects, but they are being taken hold
of by experienced men who fully under
stand their business and it may be as
sumed that the claims justify the invest
ment. On the Salmon river there is
likely to be similar activity, while all the
old camps i'll that region are i'll condi-
ton to arouse renewed interest The
Seven Devils will certainly make show
ing during the season that will establish
that district as one of the richest copper
and gold regions in the west.

Another Copper Mine.

The news is reported by +. w. Eaves
that the Iron Dyke mine in the Seven
Devils Is as rich as the famous. Peacock
ledge which has been the king of copper
propositions, since its first development
III estimation of the world of prospectors.
It's value has been established by cash
considerations in the past. Now, this
newer discovery contests the old claim
for first place in point of richness and
magnitude. The Iron Dyke is near
Snake river and can be Accommodated
with transportation only by Snake
river railroad. 1t is controlled by bond
by The Northwest Copper company
which company is now building the
Northwestern railroad down Snake river
from Huntington. The Iron Dyke is
bonded to this company for $4,000 ard
1t has recently been thoroughly exploited
during this winter
In quantity and values this ledge sur
passes even the best bodies of ores of the
Anaconda camps. The value of copper
has advanced in the markets of the
world till this Iron Dyke aud the Pea
cock together make the Seven Devils the
richest copper district in the Northwest
The ledge is over 80 feet wide and tht
assay value is found to be over $40 tor
Ill copper. The location is on the face o
mountain six thousand feet high giving
II depth and gravity system for trans
iering the ore to the reduction works
These figures give more wealth than i
even claimed for Klondike right at on
door
