When members of congress first
sprung the idea of investigation of
the Idaho labor troubles, Bartlett
Sinclair rushed into print to assure
the members that nothing would
please him better. Visions of a
trip to Washington dawned upon
the governors war correspondent
where he would occupy the boards
for weeks the observed of all OBJ
servers. His political star was
surely in the ascendency. And
then the glorious return, fully vim
dictated, to the bosom of his admir-
ing constituents. Such a triumph
were worth two years OF peaceful
life, but the stern reality is some
what different. The permit sys.
tenn has no terrors to the investiga.
ting committee. They are even
too cold blooded to turn on the red
lights when Bartlett appears OF
the scene, and worse sti |, they re
fuse him utterance when his warm
surging thoughts seek expression
II isn't at all like Bartlett though
II would be, and If he had his let

is no joke. Where a man can't b,

A New Factor,

The dream Of the pioneer is about
to be realized. The open river to
the sea will be an accomplished
fact by midsummer, and Lewiston
established as the upper terminal
OF the greatest interior water way
In the northwest. THIS project
carries with it the reduction OF
freight rates and saving to the
people Of $4,000, 600 in freight
charges. 1t gives Lewiston new
competitive line and Strengthens
the ci,y's position as the gateway
to the interior.
The construction of the Dalles
portage railway and the operation
Of new line Of transportation from
Lewiston and all river points to
tide water Is a factor in the trans.
portation question which is likely
to force immediate action on the
part Of the railroad companies.
The Northern Pacific may have to
close the Lewiston Riparia link to
meet the competition of the open
river transportation. The portage
scheme also comprehends an ex-

EVERYTHING looks republican down
our way" said Judge Morgan, referring
to the political situation in Ada county.
"Nomuailv the silver republicans are
said to be holding their organization, but
its Ike whis,ling to keep up courage.
Nearly all the leaders are outspoken in
their return to the old party and the rank
and file are with them"
The Importance OF Nez Perce county's
republican strength is best evidenced by
the recent action of the state central
committee in designating it as the place
for holding the next state convention.
The recognition has been slow in coming,
but our pains and patience have at last
been rewarded, and predict the coming
convention will prove to be one of the
most enthusiastic gatherings of the
kind ever held in the state. All things
come TO them who wait.

Of this factor is enough capital to

Idaho where independent capital

To Whom Will They Appeal2


Our democratic friends are a

win this election by preaching the
doctrine OF discomfort and by tell
ing the people how much they are
suffering-to repeat what they did
In 1891. Which way will they
turnl Will it be TO the farmer
He will answer that he was never
ding so we'll before. Will it be TO
the cotton planter? He will point
to his uine cents Tor cotton at the
beginning of 1900, and the ~.
cents per pound on New Years
three years ago. Will it be to cot
ton and wooden manufacturers?
They will point to their profits of
from IL to 70 per cent and TO their
empty warehouses and say the
change In three years has been
marvellous. Will they turn TO the
iron and steel manufacturers
Hardly. Their exports last year
were among the chief factors Of the
country's progress.

ployes in the mines, in the great
ships on the lakes that carry ores,

where the demand continued to
outrun the utmost supply. Will

would but smile and turn over for
inspection the balance sheet OF
their work and profits for the last
year compared with three years
