COUNTY POLITICS.

The county central committees Of the
silver forces met in Rathdrum, Tuesday,
for the purpose OF arranging dates and
selecting place for holding the 1ounty
conventions and trans2cting any other
business that might come before them.
With the meeting oi these committees
the last hope OF the gold Republicans
vas blasted They have been working
and praying for split in the three par
ties that would make fusion impossible.
All kinds Of arguments, truthful and I'M
truthful, principally the latter, have
teen used TO induce Silver Republicans
70 desert their party, but Without success
except in two or three cases. The
liver Republicans are stronger today
in this county than they were two
wears ago. This was demonstrated by
the large attendance ut the committee
meeting and the enthusiasm DISPLAYED
for Bryan and fusion. Tue Democratic
and PoPulist committees were also a unit
IN favor OF fusion, and the three meetings
were most harmonious. Two wears ago
there we're those who opposed fusion;
this year not one member in the three
committees raised his voice in opposition,
The conference committee had no diff
Guilty in agreeing that fusion is desira-
bic, and the only contest was in selecting
. convention tOEn. These facts must
convince even the the most sanguine
Republican that his party will be greatly
IN the minority when the votes are
counted. We have no doubt that fu.
sion viii he effected when the conyen.
tons meet in Cpur d'Alene, with as
much harmony and good feeling as char.
aet+rized the meeting of the committees.
IL there was reason for the reform
forces uniting two years ago on the issue
OF silver. there is more reason for a union
Mt this time, when the country is overrun
by trusts, and imperialism threatens the
very existence ofthe republic.

The Standard Oil Co has paid to John

THERE is a movement on foot to have
q city marshal appointed at a stated
salary that will he sufficient to afford a
living from the Office. We thought
Cfeur dAlene had experience enough
with high-saIaried officers and other
otheiAl extravaganza, to profit by the
lesson. The town is nov shaving the
interest OF Of its outstanding warrants
to reduce the indebtedness, and it would
seem very inconsistent and a useless
waste oil money to employ a marshal at
TINS time on a salary that would justify
him in giving his entire attention to the
cfhee. The offices OF constable. pound
master and marshal might be given to
one person and made to bring him in a
fair income from the fees. An officer
whose salary depends upon his diligence
IN making arrests and looking after
stock is more apt to attend to his official
duties than he would he were he paid a
stated monthly salary. We believe the
people are opposed to the salary plan.

A Happy Metz Year.

happy New Year!" How many
people realize the meaning of the
words as they go about with this
familiar greeting upon their lips? Il
wish you happy New Year." Does
it not seem that the wish carries a
blessing with it? And | believe 1t
does when spoken by friends whose
words are always true and sincere.
For the benefit of those thoughtless
ones who never read between the lines,
let us analyze this significant greeting.
In the first place we wish our friends
happiness, and the next question which
naturally suggests itself is, what con-
stitutes happiness? A little friend of
mine tells me that it is to eat all the
candy he wants and not to go to bed
until he wants to do so. Another
friend OF more mature years says that
she would be perfectly happy II she
mad all the money she wanted to spend
as she liked. Another desires fame,
another social position. And SO we
might go on asking and finding out
that almost every one has different
definition for happiness.
II the young lad were allowed to
follow his own sweet will and surfeit
himself with sweets and late hours,
think the result would be anything but
happy. AS for wealth, who can blame
anyone for wishing for all that one
cares to spend. and especially wom-
an to whom a separate income is the
exception rather than the rule. 1t Is
the spending of it which decides the
happiness or unhappiness of the
possessor l do not believe that any
one was ever really happy who used

The new leaf that very seldom gets
turned over is the one in the diary.
Some men claim that they see the
old year out and the new one in by
getting so drunk that they can't see
anything.
By New Year the silver plating
wears off many a Christmas present.
A good beginning Is nalf the battle
except in the case of keeping a diary.
The new date is as hard to remem-
Der as the new leaf.
Even though the arctic explorer
never discovers the north pole he de-
serves Sredit, for he always keeps a
diary.
New Year gives us chance to re-
ciprocate to those who Unexpectedly
gave us present at Christmas.
Seeing the old year out puts man
in a fit condition to swear off the next
day.-N. Y. World.

Then you came in. and. instead Of
sharing my pity for him. you accused
me of flirting with hint

"a Happy New Year to you!" This
is the greeting which will be heard
on every side as we cross the thres-
hold of the new year. 1t has become
custom to repeat it. In many cases
it has little meaning, and is nothing
more than an empty compliment or an
idle wish. How much do you mean by
it? 1t is very easy to repeat the form
ula. 1t is very simple matter to buy
a New Years card and enclose 1t in
an envelope. But when you send this
greeting, or speak 1t, do you regard
it as pledge or promise that you will
do nothing to make the recipient oi
it unhappy. and that you will do all
in your power to relieve his anxieties
and bring gladness to his heart?-

They think you both must have guess
ed it. | remember that Tom was in
the parlor with Dora when | ran in on
New Years morning to tell her of your
engagement. She had been on the
point OF asking him to help her to
make up with Dick. And when she
told me about it, I wrote him note
telling him that believed she would
forgive him If he came at once That
note found him at your house, Irene

ADVANCE IN COPPER.
Many Signs In the East and In
Europe Point 20 Further Rise.

The advance recorded yesterday in
the price Of copper will be followed by
another rise before long II the signs In
the East and In Europe do not alto
gether fail. The Engineering and
Mining Journal has the following to
say OF conditions prevailing last week.
The market has been strong and active
and a large business has been done
both in this country and abroad. Con-
sumption at home continues enormous
and orders are being placed for distan:
as well as nearby delivery. Our ca
bles from Europe report the same con.
dition prevailing there. Early deliveries
are again becoming very scarce and the
renners advise that they find difficulty
In making shipments as quickly as de-
sired by the manufacturers.
A prominent operator is quoted by
the Boston News Bureau as saying;
Il confess | cannot comprehend the
apathy manifested toward copper
shares under the existing conditions OF
the market for the metal. I sold to-
day at II cents for May delivery by
boats. My observation Of the copper
share market shows me that 1t Is sub
