APPEAL TO AGUINALDO.
Invitation to Become a "Good Citizen
of Glorious Country"

The editor of the Pocahontas Sun, pub
lished somewhere in Kansas, molds q
whole lot of truth in small way when he
indites the following open letter to the
leader of the Philippine patriots: "Agui,
you do not know what you are missing by
not wanting to become citizen of this
grand country of ours. There is nothing
like it under the sun. You ought to send a
delegation over here to see us-this land Of
the free; this land of churches and 40, :
900 licensed saloons, bibles, forts, guns
and houses of prayer, the millionaires and
paupers, theologians and thieves, libertines
and liars, christians and chaingangs, poll
ticians and poverty, schools and prisons,
scalawags, trusts and tramps, virtue and
vice.
IA land where we make bologna of
dogs and canned beef of sick COWS and old
mules and horses and corpses of people who
eat it; where we put men in Jail for having
means of support and on rock pile if he
has no job; where we have Congress of
400 men to make laws and Supreme
Court of men to set them aside; where
good whiskey makes bad men and bad men
make good whiskey; where newspapers are
paid for suppressing the truth and made
rich for telling lie; where professors draw
their convictions and salaries from the same
source; where preachers are paid from
81, 900 to S25, 900 year to dodge Satan
and tickle the ears of the wealthy.
s'Where business consists in getting
property in any way that will not land you
in the penitentiary; where lie holds you
up and the truth holds you down; where
men vote for what they do not want for
fear they will get what they want by vot-
ing for it; where women wear false hair
and men dock their horses tails; where
men vote for thing one day and swear
about it the other 1854 days in the year;
where we have prayers on the floor Of the
National Capitol and whiskey in the base
ment; where we spend S., 900 to bury o
Congressman and $40 to put man away
when he is poor; where the Government
pays the Army officers widow S., 900 and
the poor private who faced the shell S144,
with insinuations that he is a Government
pauper and burden because he lives.
"Where to be virtuous is to be lone
some and to be honest is to be crank
where we sit on the safety valve of con-
science and pull wide open the throttle Of
energy; where gold is worshipped and God
is used as wastebasket for our better
thoughts and good resolutions; where we
pay Is cents dozen to poor woman for
making shirts; where we teach the un-
tutored Indian the way to eternal life and
kill him with bad booze; where we put a
man in prison for stealing loaf of bread
and in Congress for stealing bank or rail
road; where check books and sins walk in
broad daylight, justice is asleep, crime
runs amuck, corruption permeates our
social fabric and Satan laughs at every
corner. Come to us, Agui We have
the grandest aggregation Of good things
aud soft things and hard things of all sizes,
varieties and colors ever exhibited under
one big tent. Send your delegation and
we will prove all these assertions true.

How VIM. Yates Went After Thunder
Mountain Stock.
SEVERAL LADY SPECTATORS
Names Of the Claims Secured By the Thunder
Mountain Consolidated Gold Mines, Ltd.

VIM. Yates is a gentleman who has
been around little and who has seen
few things. A couple Of years ago
he was in the Thunder Mountain
country, having recently been in
Alaska at the Treadwell mine, with
which he is familiar, and after a
months investigation of Thunder
Mountain he pronounced it a bigger
thing than the Treadwell. The Thun-
der Mountain Consolidated Gold
Mines company had hardly organized
until Mr.. Yates showed up and
when the first block Of stock was Of
fered he invested $1,000 in cash, and
then offered his services as an exper-
fenced mountain. man to the company
for one year, agreeing to take his pay
in stock. The company took Mr..
Yates offer, and he is now in the
mountains with the pack train and
the men, arranging to get in sup
plies. Mr.. Yates faith, coupled with
his thorough knowledge OF the coun-
try, indicates that possibly the full
truth is not generally known regard
ing the riches of that section.

The company's list of stockholders
is graced with the names Of a num-
Der of ladies who have invested
money in this local enterprise. They
are Mrs. S. H. Coon, of Meadows,

AT RUTHBURG.
Large Steam Hoist Now in Place on the
Mountain Queen

N. X. Franklin is down from the
Heath district, and states that his
company has suspended operations
on the Abbie. The development
work has been steadily pushed on the
property since they took the bond,
but the owners asked for the pay
ment of large sum of money and
refused to extend any time. While
the results of development are very
hattering and they were willing tc
continue, Mr.. Andrews did not think
the showing yet justified the invest
ment of the sum demanded, and the
bond was surrendered. The company
will now put their energies on the
Mountain Queen, upon which they
have installed 16-horse power en-
CINE and hoist, which will be in op-
Grafton this week. A cross-cut is be
ing run from the bottom of the 160
foot shaft, and they expect to tai
the vein in the next 80 feet.

JUST A POINTER
Upon the Possibilities of Agricultural Re
turns In the Fat Land of Weiser.

Statesman: Burt Venable, editor
of the Payette Independent, who is
in the city, said yesterday the fruit
crop at Payette would be very large
this year, probably larger than ever
before. Last year the output from
that place was increased materially
by large shipments of cantaloupes,
which we're shipped to eastern as we'll
as western markets. The shippers
received such good returns that some
of them made preparations to 60 in
to the cantaloupe business on large
scale this yesr.
Mr.. Venable said Len Young last
year realized $1008 from the canta-
loupes on 81 acres. This year he
put in 35 acres and will gather ar
enormous crop of the luscious fruit
Last year the Payette cantaloupe
shipped to Chicago went on the mar
ket in competition with the Colorado
cantaloupe, and attracted wide at
tention, all the newspapers giving the
Idaho product special mention. Thil
year the Idaho cantaloupe will bea
the Colorado fruit into the market by
three weeks. The Payette cantaloup,
raisers expect to reap rich harvest
as an abundant crop is promised.

Train Service.

The increase in railway train SER
vice is probably the most accurate
and pronounced means of estimation
the real growth and advancement of
urban communities. Our attention
was called to this by an article in the
Statesman showing that Boise has
under the new schedule ten trains
daily. This is certainly an encourag-
ing feature denoting progress. But
using the same methods we find that
Weiser has eight trains more than
Boise. Arrivals and departures by
this method constitute two trains; for
instance, train No. l arrives, train
No. l departs, making 2 trains
train No. 2 arrives and counts one
same train departs, makes 2. A
careful calculation shows that Weis.
er has eighteen trains a day. And
the result leads one to recall the pro.
blem of Chow many legs will dog
have if you call his tail one?"
