An Answer.

An earnest effort So being made by
Senator Shoup % 3rCurrU Rural Delivery
for the more populu0s lucahlico OF idaho.
This is a very desirable and practicable
step but the people OF the PaNctic vnliey
viii be- quite satisfied with just aud sdc-
0uate mail routes without free delivery.
The above appeared in our issue
of February 23rd, and one Of our
valley patrons, Jacob Seitz, taking
exceptions TO IL, wrote US II five page
letter, which we have not room to
publish; but the letter in substance
claims that we are mistaken, and
if the question was left tn a vote
we would certainly have free deliy-
cry and not hc satisfied with adc-
quate mail routes. He also claims
that IL is the pleasure OF town peo-
pie to see farmers come to town, t
1t is great Inconvenience TO them,
several times week.
In answering this must say that
Mr.. Scitz has not taken tine clipping
for what it says, for we stated IN
plain terms that the step was very
desirable and practicable one.
But the critic mus take into con-
sidcration the density of the popu-
lation of other places, when COM
pared with this valley, that expect
free rural delivery, and the Efforts
that they are putting forth We
surveying the proposition, realize
that it would be next to am impus-
sibility at present to secure such Il
favor bat had hopes, when falling
within the bounds of reason, OF re-
ceiviug Il mail connection that is SC
urgently needed.

Wilson's Work at Washington.

Our Washington correspondent
writes as follows:
Representative Wilson, Of Idaho,
is a very busy man. Since the be-
ginning of the session, he has in
troduced, among others, the follow
ing bills: Increasing the limit Of
cost of public building at Boise
City, Idaho, from 100000 to $780,
600; a joint resolution submitting
an amendment to the Federal con-
stitution providing for uniform
marriage and divorce laws through
out the United States; a bill Civ
ing preference to the citizens of
the several States where mails are
carried in all mail lettings; a bill
10 ratify an agreement with the
Indians Of the Fort Hall Indian
Reservation; a bill req uiring In
dams who have taken land in sew
crafty to pay taxes in support of
the local government; a bill to
prevent the unlawful killing of
game by Indians and making the
Indians amenable to the state
game laws.
He is also earnestly endeavoring
TO prevent the enactment of legis-
lation authorizing the leasing of
the public grazing lands Of the
United States An effort is being
made by some large interests in
California and Texas to lease large
tracts Of the public grazing lands.
These tracts will, of course, be
fenced and enclosed. AS soon as
this is done, the small cattle and
stock owners viii be at serious
disadvantage, as they will not be
able to make these large leases
and citizens Of Idaho undoubtedly
desire that the public grazing lands
remain open and free TO all, just as
they are now. Mr.. Wilson is Wig
orousIy opposed to this legislation
and believes that he will succeed in
defeating it.

DEM0oRATs FAY0R rRVs1ls.

If the democratic party had the
slightest regard for consistency, it
would, after the democratic members
of the House defeated the Joint re-
solution proposing constitutional
amendment giving Congress power
to regulate trusts, forever keep mum
on the subject Of trusts. The repub-
licans did not have votes enough to
adopt the resolution, two-thirds be-
ing required for that class OF legisla-
tion, and only five democrats had the
nerve to defy their party caucus and
vote with the republicans for the res
olution, which left the vote 3s short
of the requisite two-thirds, Repre-
sentative Littlefield, of Maine, made
another great speech on this ques-
tion, in which he scored the demo-
cratic party for the record of it's
leaders, including Mr.. Bryan, on
trust legislation, closing with these
words:
'We are ready to go to the people
in November and to submit to their
candid common sense Judgment
whether the democratic party that
has proved itself incompetent to deal
with this question, shall be trusted,
or the republican party. If the peo-
pie of this country shall register their
verdict in accordance with the pro-
position that You can fool some of
the people all of the time all of the
people some of the time, but you cam
not fool all of the people all of the
time, then, when the sun rises upon
the morning that sees WiiAam Nc
Kinley's denomination in PhiIadel-
phia, it viii be as the sun OF Auster-
litz, illumined BY the honor of the
republican party"
Everytime a democratic demagogue
howls against trusts, he should be
confronted with the vote on this
resolution, the most practical anti
trust legislation that has been before
Congress and asked whythe demo,

indifference to the rights and the
property of the people. They run
their lines across the farms, they
tear down houses, burn villages,
destroy crops, seize supplies, impress
labor and treat the people in a most
cruel and arbitrary manner. If the
same things should occur in the
United States or Europe or in any
other part of the world, they would
be attended by the same results.
The Boxers were organized to re-
sist and revenge these outrages, and
they use the only means within their
power to punish their oppressors. A
Ohinaman never gets any eympathy
either in America or elsewhere, and
the consciousness Of that fact COM
pels hfm to carry on his operations
with as great secrecy as possible. If
the German and Belgian railroad
people would treat the poor coolie
farmers of the Shantung province in
just and honorable manner and
give them fair compensation for the
property they have taken or destroyed
there would be no need OF sending
fleets to the Chinese waters or de-
manding idemnity at the tsung-h-
yamen.

many national bankers have proved
thieves and defaulters that Mel cKinley
has had to pardon seventeen out Of
the penitentiary TO keep his standing
with the fraternity This is a pretty
hard slam at national bankers and as
the Journal makesno exceptions, the
implications is clear that it places
the Oskaloosa bankers in the same
suspicious category. 1t may be pos
sible that the Journal considers such
insinuations good politics. but it
certainly cannot claim that it is a
public-spirited championship of its
home town and home interests. "

A WORD ON NARRTAGFS.

Keokuk Gate City: There has been
much talk of young married people
trying to start where their parents
leave off in household economies. If
some of these brides would have a
quiet talk with some woman who is
now rich social leader about the
latter's early experiences in economy
when her husband was making the
first thousand dollars, it would do
more good than a sermon or a volume
ofphilosophy. And ifengaged couples
would seek such confidential talk
there would be more marriages, as
there should be. The social leader
who now lives on the most fashion
able street is always ready to talk on
that subject too. Her husband is a
prominent man now because she was
endowed with sense.
