glary, John Peltier charging him
with entering his room at Gosney's
boarding house and EXTRACTING
therefrom $55 in cash and a silver
watch. The watch and $12 cash
were found on Hale when he was
arrested by the marshal. At the
preliminary hearing Hale was
bound over to appear before the su-
perior court, his bonds being fixed
at $1,000, which he was unable to
furnish. Peltier was placed under
800 bonds TO appear as a witness.
Hale and Peltier had been working
with Mecklem's thrsshing outfit,
but were paid off Saturday, and
coming to Pullman They proceeded
to fill up on booze, and during the
night the robbery occurred. Sheriff

City Control of the Water Supplies.

The question of municipal owner
ship of the city water works now
fairly confronts the citizens OF
|. vision, If the example OF
other cities are parallel comparisons
a water monopoly is to be dreaded.
The companies which control the e
water supplies realize very large
profits OH their investments. 1t is
wrong in principle that a necessary
of life should b, subject 10 private
control, even if the mere question
of economy could be eliminated
This city control is in no sense an
experiment as the most progressive
cities, both east and west, own
their water systems, and operate
them satisfactorily. An unwi OF
dishonest city government will
bring disaster regardless of the
number of departments to afford
opportunities for error and fraud
The hope for the future lies in the
selection of competent officials,
whether the new water department
is added to the city government OF
not.
The question of economy is one
OF first consideration in this matter
The water rates in this city are
double those Of any city which has
public works; and the convenience
under public management in Other
cities are much more satisfactory
tina those offered by the corporation
which holds the charter in thi.
city. The experience of othe,
cities justifies the belief that waite,
can be furnished by public work,
in this city for at least on half o
present rates.

words the warning is that if Lewis
ton wants capital to come in and
make needed and permanent i'm
provements, the city must Keep
pace with the demands brought
about by the new conditions.
There is no doub: that other capt.
talists have been deferred from
making investments in Lewiston
for the very reasons suggested by
Mr.. Adams. The outlook is
certainly not very inviting There
is an evident lack of enterprise
that must impress the visitor un-
favorably, Contrast present condi-
tons with a Lewiston with we'll
paved and well-lighicd streets, be
tokening thrift and enterprise. and
then consider which condition is
most likely to invite the capitalist
seeking a permanent investment.
The present conditions are a
menace to the city's growth. and
the remedies can not come too
speedily.

The government has been ex-
perimenling in the rural free de-
livery system and annual report OF
the first assistant postmaster con-
tains vigorous plea for contin-
ua,ion OF the plan and the exten-
sion of its benefits. The good
results are increased postal receipts
enhancement of the value of farm
lands reached by the rural free de.
livery; general Improvement OF
the roads traversed by the rural
carrier and better prices for farm
products. These results commend
the system and congress will no
doubt contribute increased appro-
priations TO forward the plans OF
the department.

Thanksgiving Day.

Thanksgiving is becoming the
most popular American holiday
While it is a modern holiday it en-
genders and keeps green the mem
ory OF childhood, the old home and
mother. a sentiment that grows in
the heart as civilization and social
refinement advance.
The sentiment that promoted
Thanksgiving was inspired in the
land OF our earliest childhood. This |
sentiment has been transplanted in
the west. 1t finds a permanent
Judgement in the warm hearts of
the hardy people who broke strong
home ties in response to the call of
duty and are now building up
new homes in the far corners of
civilization. The Thanksgiving
OF the New England where it orr
ginated was in the past festal oC
casion. In the earlier days OF orr
history as people the family re-
manned and were in the shelter o.
the old home tree. In our later
civilization the family is scattered
far and wide. The sentiments of
family pride and parantal love do
not wane in the heart of wanderers.
This fostering sentiment of refine
ment, civilization and patriotism
burns with brighter fire in tie
breast of the pioneer who conquers
deserts and builds new homes as he
grows strong in body and intense
in energy. The Thanksgiving that
was festal day in the land of ne
old home is day OF celebration in
the west when every mind goes
back to the parental and ancestral
root. In fact Thanksgiving has a
special significance in the west
where every man woman and child
cherishes the sacred memories that
clusters around this occasion. On
this day we furnish the chain that
forms our home ties. The years
that pass do not make us love the
old home less for we live over
every year in one day the drama
OF the family history. The piano.
rama passes In memory from joyous
childhood plays TO wedding bells
and to the silent grave. Old sores in
the heart are healed by the soothing
influence of composite sentiment.
The edges of temper are dulled by
memories of loving caresses, and
the harsh nature is made mild and
the weak faltering heart is made
strong by the annual Thanksgiving
day.

The South for Expansion.

From the tone of many editorials
from standard democratic papers Of
the South aud of many interviews
from southern democratic leaders,
Bryan had better stay away from
New England and carry his cam
paign of education into the South.
The trend of public opinion is now
turning strongly toward the ex-
pansion idea, and the democratic
press and democratic leaders are
very clear in their utterances con-
corning the question.
The Memphis Commercial. APP
peal says: IF the democratic
leaders are wise they will heed the
lesson of Tuesdays elections. Out
of all the confusion of the voting
the moral is plain. The democracy
should drop anti.expansion as it
would red hot poker" And Mr.
Bryan gets no more comfort from
this in the Chattanooga Times: 1T
strikes us that the total result of
the elections oflast Tuesday makes
anti-expansion hopeless party
issue at this time, Sure the ma.
jority Of his own party hold in no
high esteem the painful straddle
that Mr.. Bryan has given out as
being his view OF the question. F."
Georgia is in line with Tennessee
and strikes not only against anti
expansion but free silver as we'll.
The Macon Telegraph says: For
our own part we are convinced
from evidences independent of the
recent election results that the ex.
pausion sentiment is growing both
in the South and in the North. and
that the democratic party will be
as uulucky in adopting an anti
expansion policy as it was and will
be again i'll standing upon a free
silver platform Too many people
in the South embraced the Western
silver idea merely because they
thought that by so doing the party
could be placed in power. Policies
so adopted. more often miscarry
than otherwise, because there is a
large element among the people
who place the good of the country
above the success of their party
and require to I've thoroughly con
WINGED Of the desirability Of every
proposed reform"
From the above quotations it
will be seen that there is a zone Of
influence now in the South that
is actively at work undermining
the very corner stones OF Organism.

The Farmer Suffers.

The farmer is brought lace to
face today with the problem of the
upbuilding of the American
merchant marine and its practi.
cal benefits made so manifest that
his sympathies and influence for the
future will be assured. The causes
of thepresent low price of wheat
aud the stagna,ion of the markets
Is the lack Of vessels to transport
the wheat Of the exporttrade.
War in the Transvaal and the
Philippines has drawn away large
numbers of vessels from the export
trade, 10 be used either in the
navy or in carrying supplies to
the troops. The great bulk of the
wheat exporting is done in vessels
flying the British flag and the
English war in Africa has drawn
them away from the American
wheat trades As a result charters
have doubled as compared with
prices one year ago and are too
high to make 1t profitable to en-
gage ships for wheat export even
IL they could be obtained. The
difference between the present.
price of charters aud the prices
that obtained a year ago must be
paid by the exporter who in turn
cuts it from the price paid the
farmer.
The farmer declines to sell, hop
ing for a change that will bring a
higher price. The exporter makes
no shipments because the high
charter rates are ruinous to his
profits. As result millions OF
bushels are in storage at the sea.
port warehouses and millions more
in the local warehouses in the
interior and there is a complete
stagBation of the trade.
For years there has been an
agitation for a movement of The
upbuilding of the American
merchant marine, contention that
Americans should not be so wholly
dependent upon foreign vessels
and that there was both security
and profit in the enterprise which
would place the American trade
vessels carrying the American flag.
A very practical phase of the ques
ton now confronts the farmers and
almost the only relief in sight in
case the wars continue is to have
more American ships built especial
' ly Tor the wheat export trade.
